I have had my Viewsonic GTab for about 4 days now, and have probably wiped and reinstalled a half dozen mods trying to get a fully functioning Android Market. The closest I have come has been able to come only has gotten me the Market icon. But it opens a white screen which rapidly closes itself. I installed Cyanogenmod7 back to back with gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip
After installing GApps the whole system becomes extremely buggy in general, including the home button not working. I am not concerned with that though.
I have tried many walk throughs but the vast majority of them are related to the less broken Market that you can at least semi-access.
I scoured through this and other sites looking for guidance before resorting to posting, so I hope I didn't overlook a thread that was related to this exact problem.
Regards,
Sacrifusion
Im having the exact same problem. Gmarket not force closing and homebutton not working within cyanogen
Anyone find the solution? I have had may Gtablet for months working great until yesterday. I am running CM7 daily release 5/24/11 and everything was working fine, added netflix mod to build.prop and ran it for a about a week no issues but now market opens then closes. Any help?

You have some incredible timing buddy. After weeks of my gtab just sitting in my bag, today I decided to pop Gingerbread on it w/ a fully operational Market and it's running smoother than I have ever seen it. But, I did run into a skirmish with Netflix (MOD 2) that semibricked it for a half hour. Wound up playing many back to back games of beat the clock as it would reboot after making it to the home screen for a few seconds before I was able to make it to the app manager fast enough to uninstall it. I know there were probably simpler ways to go about it, but I'm running on only a few hours of sleep.
This is now considered a beta version of Ice Cream Sandwich for the HeroC. Please keep all comments/communication about this ROM in this thread, and keep the Development thread clean for people actively working on the ROM.
No guarantees that anything will work, or that your phone will not be turned into a brick or a toaster. Please backup if you value what is currently on your phone.
You can use this with or without gapps. If you load them both on the initial setup, be sure to select "Setup Wizard" when the system first comes up.
In its current state this ROM with GAPPS needs around 155M in /system. I am currently running firerats at 160/20 just to be safe for testing purposes. I would recommend at least 155 for system.
There are some obvious places where we can reduce the size, but that will come as we continue to refine and move forward. Performance in not great, but overall it is fairly functional. Gapps are just some a minimal version to get Market working.
THIS ROM TAKES A LONG TIME TO BOOT (ESPECIALLY FIRST BOOT).
Boot animation has been added in 26NOV version. Please be patient.
This is a work in progress and there remain many Opportunities for Improvement (the gentle euphemism for Defects).
Working (at least for me):
Touchscreen
Trackball
Phone
Data
WiFi
MMS
Audio
Bluetooth
SD Card
Market
GPS
Gallery
Boot Animation
LatinIME Keyboard
Prediction/Dictionary
Network Stats (Data Usage)
Headsets (Audio Jack & HTC 11 Pin)
Not Working:
Camera
Gallery2
Graphics Acceleration
TBD (Lots of other stuff)

FAQ / Fixes
DATA ISSUES
If you are having issues with Data try the following settings:
"Data enabled" checked
"Data roaming" unchecked
"System select" Home only
If you still have issues with data, please capture the output of "adb logcat -b radio" from boot to completely booted and post it to pastebin or equivalent.
KEYBOARD ISSUE
Attached below is a replacement keyboard that doesn't have the bottom row off-screen. This is just a quick hack to get a functional keyboard. After some clean up and testing, I will include it in the releases going forward. Just replace the existing /system/app/LatinIME.apk with this one for the time being.
Reserved 2
This is also reserved for later use.
Nice.

hmmm after the HTC screen, i get a black screen showing nothing. Plugged the charger and shows charging light.. Still waiting for it, it's been like 3 minutes. im on 170 40 mtd settings. K nvm it setup just appeared. For those that are trying, wait for it.
EDIT: K been messing around with it (sorry for all these edit, just trying to prevent a lot of posts and I am awake this late so might as well show some heads up) but problems I found
1) Keyboard is half (missing space bar and the alt function)
2) Screen orientation is choppy
3) Im missing the actual market app, might be firerats issue
I found a pointless feature.. but using the trackball brings up a cursor lol didn't know it'd do that. Making it "click" u have to press the ball then scroll quickly rather than just keep clicking the ball.
Thank you ICS Team. Other than the items listed in the OP, I cannot get data to work. Phone is stuck on No Service and every few minutes will jump to roaming and then back to no service. If I try to call a number with the dial pad, the dial pad disappears after I press send, I assume this is because I have no cell signal. Could not test google apps due to no data. I was still able to play with the home screen, widgets, etc.
@ Majin101, my keyboad seems to be working ok, I do have the market app but haven't tried to use it yet. I am not using firerats mod. If anyone else tries to flash this, make sure you wait a few minutes for the rom to boot as mentioned in the above post. You will see a blank screen but it will eventually boot.
This is going to be a great rom. If you use a different keyboard you also get space and alt to show up.
Findings.
Okay, Seems nice. There is no bootscreen, so be patient, when setting up, choose "setup wizard"(this is kind of a no brainer, but you never know). Alright:
1. Data isn't working, I changed the roaming settings, but it didn't help.
2. As mentioned in an earlier post, the keyboard is missing some keys.
3. I do however have the market application. I used the gapps in the op and am using firerats 160 40
Really amazing work. The fact that this is even running on my hero amazes me. And they thought it would have trouble with eclair

Data is working well for me with the following settings:
"Data enabled" checked
"Data roaming" unchecked
"System select" Home only
Try that, and if you still have issues with data, please capture the output of "adb logcat -b radio" from boot to completely booted and post it to pastebin or equivalent.
As i was installing in cwm i got an error stating "random offset: 0 x 150" yet the rom still installed. Any ideas as to what this was/is?

I got the same error. It booted just fine and I thus ignored it. Would be nice to know though.
For those that want to fix the keyboard, just download ics keyboard from market. For those that cannot download from market, use root explorer to go into "cache" and create a folder named "downloads", for those that want to increase scrolling speed etc., flash the TweakZ.zip found in the android general forum here at XDA. I would also recommend setCPU.
I also got Random Offset 0x1ba. Once rebooted, HTC screen showed up then black screen. I waited 10 min but it looked frozen. So I pulled the battery. Then I accidentally formatted my SD card and the fun was over.

The "random offset" comment has to do with the flashing of the kernel. I'm not entirely sure but I think it has to do with the way the boot.img is packed. Should be harmless though..
Good to see you'll got this thing running though.

Another feedback!
pros
1) Ive been texting sending and recieving just fine no problems (havent tried mms)
2) Made calls talked fine (although my face kept hitting the end button..)
3) Installed swype, texting is fine now and changed the dictionary too english to get rid of those red lines under the words
4) Also increased pointer speed to just use the trackball if needed
other bugs:
1) Noticed that some of my notification doesn't make a sound or plays
2) When I play music its coming through the ear piece speaker rather than the back speaker
3) google map fails to login
Darn looks like I have to go back to CM7.1. People try to call me but my won't won't tell me someone is calling and their isn't any sound either. Also the gallery app opens but doesn't show pictures and apps are missing from the market but thats probably a build.prop issue.
-------
Just flashed without mtd and it seems to be working better. I'm receiving calls and can hear my sound now.
Great job guys! Running for about an hour and besides the above mentioned bugs, I've noticed one more.
When I put the phone on the charger it becomes unresponsive and the screen goes dark. No way to wake the phone nor is the charging led on.
The only way I can charge the phone is to do a battery pull and boot the phone while on the charger.
mines charging and im still able to use it?
Very Impressive, to say the least!
*note for the development team - you are the F-ing man!!!!
I don't know if this is related to upgrading to Lollipop, but I am having graphics issues trying to play games on my Nexus 5.
Whenever I try to play a game, my phone works for a bit (maybe 15- 60 seconds) and then freezes. The only way I can get out is by dragging the status bar from the top to get access to my menu. If sound is on, you can hear the game still executing in the background but the graphics are frozen.
Also, my Maps seems to break about 30 seconds in as well. Navigation is completely useless and frozen, but I can still hear the voice directions and the GPS is still working.
Does anyone else have these issues? My phone has been unlocked and running custom roms until Lollipop, I am running stock now. Maybe my installation got corrupted? Should I just reinstall fresh?

Does your phone heat up? My initial theory was thermal throttling.

I'm facing a strange issue on my N5. After the update to Marshmallow, the clock is getting slow. I have tried to malually fix the time, set it on automatic and even automatic time zone; but no prevail.
Any advise?
I was facing this issue as well when I was on DP3. It got solved once I flashed to Marshmallow 6.0. You can try flashing again and see if it helps.
Got the same problem.
Only a reboot fixes it temporarily, but the clock gets slow shortly after again.
Doesn't matter if it's set to automatic or manual.
Also tried to format cache, reinstalling the clock app as well as excluding it from doze.
Maybe it's a bad app or widget messing with the system time, but that's probably quite unlikely.
Hope a fix is being found soon!
The clock going slow can cause a number of problems with apps such as Google Authenticator or Authy. Please do update this thread if you find a solution as it'll be useful to know just in case this happens.

I don't know about other user but for me the phone is getting unusable because of this issue. The clock gets really show when the phone is sleeping and this has caused me to miss alarms and appointments.
It's been 25 and a half hours, Looks like GPS and notifications are fixed with "KangVIP 3.1! Ajmsg78 has his "Kangvip slim b211 10-30-16" up to download based off the Kangvip 3.1!
When I upgrade my 702L EU to 702L Tw version B202, at first the GPS seems to work perfectly. After a while 1-2 weeks/months I need to restart the Phone to make it work with Gmap. I suspect at everytime the Gmap app updates, it screw up the gps.
I've flashed the 10.30 version for 60 hours or more. And gps is still alive, I think it should be fixed already.
For me none of the recent builds work. Still seems to go to sleep and never come back randomly. Just waiting for the very latest release to be built by AJ to test it. Finger's crossed.
FINALLY got B212 OTA. See informative screenshot lol. I see no difference at first glance... View attachment 3954296
Will test to see if it fixes this notorious GPS issue and report back
UPDATE 3 BELOW.
Dec 1 UPDATE: So far so good since yesterday. Used GPS off and on about 6 times at random times. More testing required to conclude anything... Looks like B212 OTA just might be the solution.
*** PLEASE NOTE: The Google Maps app does have a minor issue but it does not seem to be the Huawei GPS module's fault - the issue occurs when closing and reopening the app and the current position shows as a gray dot as opposed to blue with no GPS notifications in the notification bar such as "Searching for GPS" or "Location Set by GPS". This is because the Google Maps app is not calling the GPS module to turn at that time, but if you start navigating then it DOES turn on and successfully gets a fix on the location - proof that the GPS module is indeed working.
Waze does not have this problem. This shows the issue is with Google Maps not the GPS module.
Does this help?
Dec 2 UPDATE 2: So far so good at day 2, used GPS a few times to test and getting a fix is extremely fast under 2 seconds so that I'd an improvement as well. I did have a random reboot earlier today when turning off wifi but I consider this to be am anomaly of B212.
Dec 3 UPDATE 3: Everything was going 100% smooth and until I decided to update the
Google Maps app via Play Store and that triggered the issue right away, I don't know why - very annoying. Had to reboot and tried GPS twice since and so far working again. Any reason someone can think of why a reboot would be necessary after updating an app? I can't and hope it's just a fluke.
