Guest spacecadetuk Posted April 30, 2011 Report Posted April 30, 2011 I have been using version 5 of this ROM for a while now and I still think it ranks as the best. However over the last couple of days I have a number of freezes while in some apps. This has only just started to happen so I am assuming it must be an app I have loaded? Therefore, I have removed a few to see if the Vega stops freezing. Suffering from a few freezes myself at least two or three a day, not enough to stop using this rom, its too good, just wondering what people are running when suffering this minor inconvience, normally for me its when using a browser whether its dolphin, stock or miren they all seem to freeze at some point and not always when using flash so i dont think its a flash problem (flash has been giving chrome on my desktop some grief lately), and im not overclocked so its nothing to do with that, any ideas :mellow:
Guest spacecadetuk Posted April 30, 2011 Report Posted April 30, 2011 Great rom...Fast and reliable for me at least. Only issue...and its probably me. Have made a script for checking USB HOST/SLAVE in Gscript light as in first post (cat/data/var/mode) when i run it get stderr: cat/data/var/mode: not found any ideas? what am i doing wrong? No, never been able to get that to work even on the older corvus rom, get exactly what you get, i just plug in a flash drive and see what happens

Have made a script for checking USB HOST/SLAVE in Gscript light as in first post (cat/data/var/mode) when i run it get stderr: cat/data/var/mode: not found any ideas? what am i doing wrong? the correct command is: cat /data/var/mode But searching in the forum you can find a widget that shows the state of the usb Corvus.
Guest Snowdan Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 the correct command is: cat /data/var/mode But searching in the forum you can find a widget that shows the state of the usb Corvus. It took me abit following some dead ends but post 230 in the 0.5 rom thread has the widget usb mode widget for corvus roms Snowdan.
Guest Lukas Zapletal Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 (edited) Hello, trying to install this on my Linux (on top of clean Advent Vega 1.09 ROM). Enabled USB mode, started into host USB mode (using the BACK key). When I connect the USB cable I get: May 1 12:22:52 shark kernel: [ 4029.053026] usb 2-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 8 May 1 12:22:52 shark kernel: [ 4029.184411] usb 2-1: New USB device found, idVendor=0955, idProduct=7100 May 1 12:22:52 shark kernel: [ 4029.184415] usb 2-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3 May 1 12:22:52 shark kernel: [ 4029.184419] usb 2-1: Product: NVIDIA Harmony May 1 12:22:52 shark kernel: [ 4029.184422] usb 2-1: Manufacturer: NVIDIA May 1 12:22:52 shark kernel: [ 4029.184424] usb 2-1: SerialNumber: 1714404643815257 May 1 12:22:52 shark kernel: [ 4029.194433] scsi15 : usb-storage 2-1:1.0 May 1 12:22:53 shark kernel: [ 4030.199863] scsi 15:0:0:0: Direct-Access NVIDIA Tegra 2 0000 PQ: 0 ANSI: 2 May 1 12:22:53 shark kernel: [ 4030.201686] sd 15:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg6 type 0 May 1 12:22:53 shark kernel: [ 4030.218850] sd 15:0:0:0: [sdf] Attached SCSI removable disk When I try to flash: $ ./install-linux.sh Waiting for device... ensure USB Debugging is enabled in Settings-Applications-Development and connect to PC...

Guest Lukas Zapletal Posted May 1, 2011 Report Posted May 1, 2011 (edited) Oops: I have installed stock Vega 1.09.

Guest SeiferTV Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 GREAT rom, slick as no other. Just one question. I'm not being able to overclock. I download setcpu.txt, and put it on the root of my sdcard, y turn on SetCPU and select the last option on the device selecting part ( custom options, or something like that) However it only let's me pick between 19.2 mhz and 528 ( or so ) I don't think it has been asked in this thread ( or I just didn't find it. Any clue on this? ( if not, it's no biggie, the tablet works well anyways, but I just wanted to try it. Thanks!

Uninstall all cpu oc (cpu metter, widget oc, etc.) and open the setcpu.txt file with notepad and see if the las number is 1400000. Corvus.
Guest stevesilk51 Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 (edited) Hi Corvus! Many thanks for the rom, all working great with a Smartbench score of 4249! Had some trouble with SetCpu txt download, so went with "No Frills CPU Control" to take it to 1.4GHz which worked fine. :o Edit: Bought you a beer BTW :mellow: Edited May 2, 2011 by stevesilk51
Guest WWEpsp Posted May 2, 2011 Report Posted May 2, 2011 I have put the usb on host mode(checked with the script and the widget) but cant find where can i see the usb stuff. With modaco r8 i used to see it on mnt/usbdissk... Help please!!

I'm getting this too... downloaded from multiple sites, copied to the SD in various ways, formatted it, copied again, same outcome every time. Is this actually understood as a bug?

Guest the_corvus Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 The file is correct, the md5sum is: 2b36fcfdaeb484e828cafdd5b98034e5 But it finds some problem to update kernel or recovery... i dont know what can be the problem. Try to go from stock to modaco and then to Corvus5... Sorry. Corvus.

Guest the_corvus Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 What usb are you using? Ntfs, fat, memory stick, hd? Corvus
Guest WWEpsp Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 2 gb fat32. I've also used other usb with 1gb capacty or sony memorystick usb adapterrs
Guest 400ixl Posted May 3, 2011 Report Posted May 3, 2011 assert failed: write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot") E:Error in /sdcard/Corvus5.zip (Status 7) I had this earlier if I rebooted into clockwork and ran the update from there. I restored the backup and ran the install from the rom manager gui and it worked fine. I did clear download cache and the flash clockwork recovery first though.
Guest the_corvus Posted May 4, 2011 Report Posted May 4, 2011 2 gb fat32. I've also used other usb with 1gb capacty or sony memorystick usb adapterrs So you check you are in host mode, with this memory stick and doesnt mount in /mnt/usbdisk ? It works for me... Once you have connected the stick, enter connectbot and exec: su mount and you must see some mount points un /mnt I suppose you had tested stick in a pc... :mellow: Corvus.
Guest nowimboard Posted May 4, 2011 Report Posted May 4, 2011 Ive had this twice now, both times i touched the screen while boot image was on, rebooting has solved the issue for me. Also had this with the screen lock getting stuck and not opening after booting. Left alone during boot whilst connected to the pc now working ok!
Guest the_corvus Posted May 4, 2011 Report Posted May 4, 2011 I have problem with the touchscreen not working at boot when i touch the screen when is booting. Switch on the tablet and let start without touching it and the screen will work. Corvus.
Guest duvee Posted May 4, 2011 Report Posted May 4, 2011 How to apply the GRID files? I just though to replace the files in the ROM with these and flash it again.. But it didn't work for me. Ohh, and djeez! What a GREAT work. Never had any rom's in use, not with my phone nor tablet.. But damn, it's amazingly nice! Thnx corvus!
