Guest RicardoP Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 does everybody get a force close if they try to view history in the stock browser with this rom? Yup... Me too!
Guest SAFC1978 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 Hardware rendering and exchange support in the mail app are the big issues for me right now, I will keep dipping into the beta's every so often but I will be using Corvus5 for day to day for the foreseeable I think. Thanks for Corvus5 by the way. I have got exchange working in beta1a. I downloaded the latest rom for the adam (update13 in think) and extracted the mail application. I then pushed this to my vega using root explorer and altered the permissions. Worked a treat for mail and calendar which I also extracted from that rom as it was missing from my vega. Just to say a big thanks to newbe5 and corvus for all the hard work. Loving Honeycomb.

Superb idea, thanks, I can live without hardware rendering as flash doesnt bother me much but exchange support is the real clincher for me
Guest sandanpa Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 It lags a lot, FC half of the time ,with all this , still is the best ROM for Vega at this time,it is like coming from Windows 98 to Windows 7,I was talking to my self when playing with this ROM. Good work NeCo ,thank you
Guest sandanpa Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 My SD card is detected as USB (in settings) ,but as SD in file explorer ,if I plug the Vega nothing happens ,dont see SD drive,anyone has this "problem"?
Guest amrjitm Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 (edited) First post for me because Vega is the first android device that I've rooted. Firstly, big thank you to the guys who have created the HC ROM. Very stable for a Beta1. I've had a few issues as follows: Flash Well documented already SD card/apps Used in-built mechanism to move apps to SD (USB storage) but some wouldn't work and SD card is not mounted after reboot. So, I've created a partition on the card and used link2sd to move all apps to the partition. This has solved both issues, so the partition is always mounted and every app that is moved works so far (about 15). FC's Had lots of issues with FC's, so I downloaded a CPU app from market and downclocked to 1ghz. Not noticed any issues in performance (any slower etc) but FC's have stopped Freezing Not been able to workout why this is happening but need to reboot every couple of hours. Not major issue because HC ROM reboots so fast. All in all make the Vega a different beast and vastly improves battery usage. It's staying put for me because it is so stable and usable. Again, great job to all the guys who have put in the long hours. Edited May 17, 2011 by amrjitm
Guest leemain88 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 has anybody got the movie studio app working on vegacomb yet???

Guest pablochr Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 One more minor bug. In Wi-Fi I'm trying to connect to a PEAP/MSCHAPV2 but the Phase 2 authentication field (MSCHAPV2) can be added but the setting is not retained. Great work though

There are still issues with this, for example the permissions do not get set correctly. The reason this feature is was excluded in BETA1a is that there is currently no way for the Exchange Administrator to remotely wipe the device. Being a system admin myself, this isn't something I would condone as I have to make sure I have the ability to remote wipe connected devices, and so this will stay out of the BETA until it is correctly fixed. newbe5 Edited May 17, 2011 by newbe5

Guest Remington Steale Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 A fair point Newbe5 BUT if we can access the same Exchange mailbox via IMAP then why bother removing Exchange-direct? Because any exchange admin worth their salt would rather cut off their left little finger than allow POP or IMAP traffic to the mail servers. I would never ever allow external access to IMAP or POP on my servers.

I would never ever allow external access to IMAP or POP on my servers. My Exchange is MS-hosted in the cloud, effectively it is HotMail, Imap is allowed, ditto GoogleMail. Probably more Vega owners use those than corporate Exchange.

All you can do in a situation like that is advise them no then where yor over ruled grit your teeth ad implement what they want
Guest mre15 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 (edited) Has anyone managed to keep the books app on theres, it was there first boot but now gone. Still installed according to app manager though. Also as mention the history for browser doesnt work on mine either. I will aslo add that it seems to run much faster and more stable with adw ex as the launcher, you lose a bit of the nice trick tools though. Great work guys. Edited May 17, 2011 by mre15

Great work guys. had trouble with the books app it kept deleting I pushed the apk over a couple four times and in the end it just seemed to stick for some reason and now its always there I think it took about 4 attempts

The mail app isnt removed it just doesnt have the activesync portion with it

The mail app isnt removed it just doesnt have the activesync portion with it Ta, I know that but Activesync is much better than IMAP so if people are already replacing the mail.apk why bother changing it at all?

I'm beginning to think that the bootloader doesn't even support it :/
Guest Dave Marchant Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 Can anyone confirm that remote wiping actually works in Corvus5? I'm beginning to think that the bootloader doesn't even support it :/ I am not sure our Exchange 2007 server is set up to do it, but if so, I will try a bit later today.

Because having something that doesnt work quite correctly is like having an itch you cant scratch
Guest newbe5 Posted May 17, 2011 Report Posted May 17, 2011 Because having something that doesnt work quite correctly is like having an itch you cant scratch Yup :unsure: If it turns out that the botloader doesn't support this, then I will put my hands up and accept that it will have to go in without wiping working.
