Guest Paul Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 For Windows users who flashed r6 and have the 'black screen' problem, do the following: Ensure the Vega is connected to your PCOpen a command promptChange directory to where you extracted r6Type 'adb remount && adb shell rm /system/bin/busybox && adb shell ln -s /sbin/busybox /system/bin/busybox && adb shell /sbin/busybox chmod 0755 /system/bin/* && adb reboot'Done!P
Guest T4ylor Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 Prebakes are back online. P Thanks Paul all working now.
Guest Higgsy Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 Thanks Paul all working now. seamless, no errors cheers Mr P
Guest griff_dai Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 Windows safe to update now then?
Guest T4ylor Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 i dont konw if its me but i can not see the USB switcher now ive installed r6.
Guest Paul Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 Did you wipe after installing r6? It's installed to /data, so if you do, you won't see it! P
Guest JustaBloke Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 OK, think i've found the issue. Do this: adb remount && adb shell ln -s /sbin/busybox /system/bin/busybox && adb shell chmod 0755 /system/bin/* && adb shell chmod 4755 /system/xbin/su && adb reboot That should fix it. This will only affect Windows users. P I have the same problem Win 7 32bit. I have no idea where to put that code. Could you please explain for us nubes. I've tried reflashing to latest myadventvega os. No problem. Then I've tried to install ROM (all options except zip and signed) There is an error in first RM command (dir does not exist) and the same error reappears at the end of the script just before reboot. Reboot results in 'Process system is not responding and it is locked. I don't even want USB host that much <Sob>. Thanks Paul.
Guest Paul Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 Did you try re-downloading since I put the links back up since you're reflashing the Vega ROM anyway? See this post where I posted step-by-step deets. P
Guest dannight Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 Great work as always Paul got the r6 running after your insanely speedy windows fix, not seen any problems so far! Thanks Paul, you're a legend!
Guest T4ylor Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 Did you wipe after installing r6? It's installed to /data, so if you do, you won't see it! P I have no idea lol but iam learning all the time. I re flashed to v1.06, installed r6 and re installed my backup and now the USB icon in the app draw is missing.
Guest nickjinks Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 Just installed via ClockWorkMod - all went well but now trying out the usb mode switcher and it seems to get stuck... saying 'Switching USBA mode Your device will reboot shortly' etc. Its been 5 mins now so I am guessing this is not right :( Any thoughts? Could just bake a new rom and try again? Thanks again Paul for the work on the custom roms - enjoying the Vega very much now!
Guest woodski Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 The device is already rooted apparently.

Could just bake a new rom and try again? Thanks again Paul for the work on the custom roms - enjoying the Vega very much now! Same here. Fixed broken rom with the adb script (too impatient to wait for kitchen to come back up ;) ) USB switcher not working for me. Might rebake to see if that was the problem.
Guest Paul Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 Strange, I get the same behaviour. If i reinstall the APK however (from here), it works! I'll look into that. P

Guest remlap Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 (edited) Um I can't get it switch to USB Host/Slave now it just hangs up without rebooting and no prompt for Super User access. Edit I see what needs to be done and working now. Edited December 29, 2010 by remlap
Guest thedicemaster Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 paul, could you perhaps look into the music-jumping glitch?
Guest thinksmart99 Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 Um I can't get it switch to USB Host/Slave now it just hangs up without rebooting and no prompt for Super User access. I am also having this issue too. No reboot just a spinning wheel in the upper right hand corner. The "back" button does, however, respond and takes me back to the USB Mode menu. I get the same effect from both options, is that normal? It doesn't seem to check to see which mode is active. BTW the update ran on XP without a hitch. Regards, B
Guest Strocky Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 * r6 - default options, performance pack excluded - DOWNLOAD (ROMraid Load Balancing) - MD5: 5f9d526822247ce616f6e777454e585a * r6 - default options, small notifcation bar, performance pack excluded - DOWNLOAD (ROMraid Load Balancing) - MD5: 320fbef176de65b328de3182f43536c7 Just for clarity are both new downloads excluding performance pack or is that a typo? :(

Guest ChazW123 Posted December 29, 2010 Report Posted December 29, 2010 Another small issue with the r6 release is that the street view in Google Maps no longer rotates ? Works fine on the main maps and can do the nifty new 3d views etc. fine just no rotation at all on street view ?
