ICS 0.5 reboot when downloading any file - TouchPad Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As above. When I try to download any file PDF zip etc the save file dialog box appears, I click 'ok' and the touch pad reboots. Any ideas?

wipe everything and install CM9 0.6....i am not saying it will fix it..but the wiping thing might,...

DONT WIPE
try an alternate browser first. This happened to me on dolphin pad, its not stable at all, but when it works its a great browser.try to do your next download in a different browser, that works for me.

How to install google addon to a ROM?

Hello, I installed CyanogenMod 5.0 lastnight and the market and a few other applications are not there, im guessing that is the google addon can anyone tell me in detail how to install that? Thanks
You need to flash to ER27 Google add on pack here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623496
Current link: http://www.mediafire.com/file/jmmzywtlnjd/gapps-passion-ERE27-2-signed.zip
thanks...How do i flash it?
I would like to know also. I've gone into recovery and added the file to the SD card than tried to run it, only to tell it me it's not a zip. So I renamed it and also tried compressing it as zip(just to make sure) and I get an error.
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted
Download the add on from that page listed, place it on the root of your sdcard, reboot into recovery, flash it in recovery (the same way you flashed the ROM, but do not wipe), then reboot your phone.
That is exactly what I did. I sent a pm w/ more details. I tried covering all grounds just to make sure if one failed the other one would'nt.
Edit: Should USB debugging be on/off? Don't know if that makes a difference
Edit: Figured it out. Everytime i would downlad the file on my mac it would not be a .zip file so renaming it and compressing it did nothing. I downloaded it on my pc and voila, it works fine..weird...

This is because you enable auto open files in Safari. The actual zip file is in your Trash lol.
To disable it (and u should), open Preferences > General > Uncheck Open "safe" file after downloading

How to install the Google Addon?
You have to change the name of the file (ex: "gapps-mdpi-20101020-signed.zip") to "update.zip". Move it to your SDcard and then install from recovery.

You don't need to be in "Debuggin mode", neither to rename to "update.zip".. Just use ROM manager provided by cyanogenmod and go wiki :

Hello Dacid1171,
I installed Cyanogenmod 7.0.0, with no google apps of course.
I used gapps-gb-20110307-signed pack, went to recovery and chose "Install from SD card", just like I would if I was flashing new ROM.
After that the phone wouldn't book. Logo of cyanogenmod would appear with the circular arrow moving around it, after 3 round it stops and restarts all over.
It was kept that way for a very long time hoping that the phone will come to life. It wouldn't.
What did I do wrong?

Stock Browser Error with Youtube

I'm on:
CM 5.0.6
Amon Ra Recovery 1.7
Guys, can you help me out? I've really tried search high and low, in this forum, on google search, but no one seems to be having the same problem..
I see this error:
Library Info
Open Library Fail!
It occurs when trying to open a website (not youtube) which contains any youtube video embedded, in the stock browser. (recently i found out skyfire has the same error)
I've tried clear all cache, reset default, wipe everything including dalvik cache.
I'm not saying its related to CM or anything (i noticed this since CM5.0.3 as far as i can remember)
Please do share if you have encountered this or have a solution to it.
The error i see is - http://picasaweb.google.com/m/viewer?source=androidclient#photo/oberonstrife/5450127167987793377/5464679150109946130
For example, when the browser opens this page on my phone - http://phandroid.com/2010/04/26/htc-incredible-unboxing-and-pictures/
It will display that error first, then i need to tap OK, then it goes to the page, but leaves a blank space where the video's suppose to be.
I tried xscope, its working with on error, havent tried dolphine browser.
Some person mentioned AdFree as the cause, but i've uninstalled it, and rebooted few times, same error.
Thank you very much!
Update: I just tried on Dolphin Browser, it gives the same error.
What exactly are you trying to fix? Do you not want to receive an error, or do you want to view the video?
The reason I ask is, well...you can't view video in the N1 browser if the video uses flash (ex: youtube). So nobody can really help you there until froyo / adobe releases flash for android.

Hi thanks for the reply
Actually how can I fix it so that I wont see the error, i vaguely remember i can still see a picture (sorta like a preview) of the video, but when i tap on it, it will popup to ask me to open via youtube / other apps.
xscope does show the video as a picture, when tapped on it, it will ask to open it or download it.
Just an update to this, in case anybody has the same issue..
AdFree does not contribute to this error, I have confirmed it by wiping everyting, and making sure that the error does not appear - I see the picture preview of the video in the page.
1. installed AdFree, went back to same page with youtube video, no error.
2. Reboot phone, checked - no error.
3. Clear all cache including cookies, password, everything on browser and checked - no error.

I had issues with cwm failing to up date as well. So after some google fu I managed to get a working install.
1. Download the file found in this thread.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=864033
2. Power down and reboot into cwm.
3. Select mounts and storage and then select mount system.
4. Install zip from sd and select the zip from step one.
5. Reboot and enjoy.
6. In settings>language&keyboard there should now be an option for android keyboard. Open the browser and long press the url bar. You should get a popup allowing you to select the android keyboard.
Does this "IMPORTANT NOTE: this ZIP file is a ClockWork Recovery update file ==> DO NOT USE IT !!! (it will remove your system odex files) Just unzip and grab the APK and SO files." apply to the G-Tablet too? That thread talks about SO files and stuff too. I take it nothing bad happened when you flashed it?

At first I tried the install with just the apk and so files and it didn't work for me.
As far as .Odex files I haven't seen any at all in the root folder.
So far I haven't had any fc's or issues what so ever.

I followed wingman_214s instructions and it worked perfect for me. No issues so far.
Ok. I'll take the plunge. Thanks.
EDIT: Took the plunge. Typing on it now and liking it so far. Thanks for the help.
Sent from my GTablet-TnT-Lite using Tapatalk
I followed the instructions above ands while I can see the android keyboard under settings, clicking on the URL space on my browser only pops up the starndard TnT keyboard. How long do I need to engage the URL space? I would like to test it.
Try the google search bar. Just press and hold you should get a pop up. Select "input method" the android keyboard should be an option.
i'm curious as to why people prefer this keyboard over the stock TnT keyboard. the TnT has bigger keys. the gingerbread has these small little "half" keys. annoying to type on. or do other roms not have that keyboard?

[ROM] Froyo ClockworkMod V1 [08-05-11]

New good build come ! I repark from [F1 Froyo 2.2.2 V3][EXT2] by faryaab ( thanks faryaab). This build run smooth and fast !
What work:
- phone, sms, email, 3g, wifi, bluetooth, usb mode ...
- market, browser, app, game...
- 3D good ( 24.3fps neocore with sound!)
- ultil now every thing work well !
I. Download needed file:
1. Rom: http://www.multiupload.com/OLFZRD3BGN
2. boot folder: http://www.multiupload.com/Q6MNZX6FSD
II. before install :
1. Format your sdcard make 4 Partition with recommended size:
1st partition: FAT32 (sdcard / Rest)
2nd partition: EXT2 (system / about 150MB -> depends on the build )
3rd partition: EXT2 (data / about 250MB)
4th partition: EXT2 (cache / about 50MB)
Be sure make all 4 partition primary
2. extract and copy folder npkboot to root of sdcard.
3. Copy Rom ( zip file , don't extract) in to root of sdcard.
III. Install:
1. run Haret, and wait when it will be asked to press "Volume Down" shortly (!!important!! shortly) to launch ClockworkMod Recovery or any other key to usually continue booting into Android.
Press volume Down and wait for menu Recovery.
2. In menu recovery choose "install zip from sd-card" choose zip from sdcard and select "Froyo CWM V1 08-05-11.zip" . Confirm instalation. then back to main menu (press ok key) and choose: reboot system now.
3. Run HARET again and press any key (except Volume keys) to continue booting into Android.
TIPS:
- Android won't performing very well at first running hours, if you have many media files (pic,videos..) .. system will be busy searching for these files & creating thumbnails for them ... the time for that is depending on the quantity of the media on the SD card ..
- syne with google account, open each app one then restart for smooth speed.
- enable 3G ( if use want use data connect) and plugin charge in windows mobile before boot
- disable auto rotate
- disable data connect, data transfer, auto sync, use 2g network, use setCPU for save baterry life
- set acpuclock.oc_freq_khz=652000 in startup file ( inside npkboot folder) for more speed ! if you have problem, reset to 600000!
- If you want stop problem key freeze, download kernel with keyboard as modules and follow this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11808067&postcount=2 how to do ^^!
- USB mode have litle bug so when use turn on, copy file, it normal, then turn off usb mode, it will ask you format sdcard, DON'T ok, cancel it and restart phone, sdcard will normal again.
UPDATE:
- I recommend every one don't use Task Manager with option kill all ap or auto kill app, it will make more system eror, stop app, and keypad die! I don't use any task manager and it run stable for me, with no eror until now ! please try this thing and report here if it work !
- If when you boot to android and the phone restart, check your cpu speed and disable overclock in windows mobile. If you not overclock, download this file http://tingstenen.dk/data/ygge2.6turbo.zip extract and replace 2 file zimage and modules in npkboot folder, format sdcard, and try again! maybe it will work !
So, please report here how it works ! Thanks all developers for this build !

Nice work, it runs pretty well!
Exept for one thing, when i try to download some apps from the market, it says
"application google service Framework (process com.google.process.gapps) has stopped unexpectedly". It does this everytime it tries do download from the market...
Did you encountered that problem? Should a make a system restore from android? I also tried to format the cache memory...Fix the permissions, but nothing changed...
Except that issue, sometimes it starts with the menu in wide mode.
Many thanks to you!!

Hi b8e5n, nice to see it work good for you, with the market, I don't have any eror until now. have you use any Task Manager and use kill all app to free more memory? I recomment don't use it, and maybe you should reinstall again with step by step I write in first post
Thanks for your help! I spent my whole day on it...
I did not use any kill app, because there was no app killer installed.
I tried to reinstall the whole system (formating the three partitions of curse), but failed again with that error, so i tried another mod.

please try this boot folder http://www.multiupload.com/JC7W7479NE, download it and extract npkboot folder to your sdcard. remember format all partition sdcard and make them primary . copy 4 file in old folder I give in first post include: Haret.exe, modules-2.6.27.46.tar.gz, zImage, and ts-calibration to new folder. then reinstall. Hope it work for you ^^!
Works flawlessly!
only thing to improve is battery drain
great job! thanks!
I tried your Android but happens to me the following:
Sdcard reformat the FAT23 partition and three Ext2
Copying
npkboot
Froyo_CWM_V1_08-05-11.zip
card to FAT32
Via file explorer and choose open folder sdcard npkboot
run Haret
starts to load and after a few seconds resets the phone.
I tried another version npkboot you're hung up in some of the recent posts but
happens the same thing.
Do you have any suggestions on what to do or give up.

Best ROM for me so far, and I've tried them all to date! (As of May 18!)
Just like to say I'm using this ROM, with the gscript keyboard modules and SetCPU, and so far, feels faster and more stable than the others and I'm going to stick with this one for a while.
I especially like being able to use CWM to make a backup to the SD card and then able to restore it at a later date very quickly if things go wrong (just some advice, if you do rename the CWM backup directory, do *not* put spaces in the directory name or it will give you an error).
I have a few problems though with installing apps
So far, WhatsAPP will not install. Neither will the latest ADWLauncher 1.3.3 (I'm currently using the older version). Not quite sure why this is happening. Would appreciate any advice here

How do I get a status bar/better softkey?

So I just installed cm_encore_full-173.zip which was brutal... Took me like 5 hours to figure out how to get rid of errors. But now its working. So thats good.
How do I get a status bar at the top that has running Apps, battery icon, etc? I have one on my phone but the ROM does not have one. i really want that back.
Also I am not loving softkey... Is there anything better?

Settings>CyanogenMod settings>Tablet Tweaks>bottom status bar
as far as the soft buttons you can try a theme, TransformerBread and HoneyBread have gotten the Tablet Tweaked treatment and if you look in the Android Themes section you'll be able to find more
I'm on the latest nightly and I have a status bar with softkeys...
Make sure you wipe data, cache, and dalvik when flashing!
Great. As soon as I hit the "CyanogenMod settings" button I gt that error again and it closes out. This whole thing is screwed up. And no one will tell me how to wipe this and try a different ROM...
I have tried everything and I cant get this one off.

Open the rom manager in your app drawer and make sure you have the latest clockwork recovery installed, if you don't, flash it. Then go to download ROM and download the latest Nightly and check gapps in the pop up window, once its downloading another popup window will come up, check the wipe data and wipe cache and the wipe dalvik cache and hit ok. make sure you don't have a bootable SD card inserted into your Nook during this process.
That should fix all your issues.
I did all that but then it just says "your download has started you can view the progress in the notification area" Where is that? How long does it take
its been like 15 mins. How do I know when its done and how do I kick off the install?

It should be done downloading... Pull up the notification bar and hit on the clockwork recovery icon in there. If you don't have the statusbar, press and hold the power button>reboot>reboot recovery
while in recovery go to mounts and storage, format the system, data and cache, hit the power button to go back to the main menu and choose install zip from sd card>choose zip from sdcard>clockworkmod>download>download.cyanogenmod.com>get> then choose your nightly to flash it then choose install zip from sd card>choose zip from sdcard>clockworkmod>download>goo-inside.me>gapps> and flash gapps
once you've done that restart and everything should be good...
Your initial rom may have become corrupted while downloading. The softkeys should be there by default.
I had the same issues. The only way I could get the errors to go away and the status bar to appear was to flash clockwork recovery from ROM Manager and then download and flash the rom from there.
Ok I'm really close. Its WAY better, I actually the the logo run at the begining. Its fast, i can install thing, no errors.
But Facebook did not install, it said "File Not Found" and when I search for Facebook in the Market there is no Install button. But I was able to install Kindel just fine. So there is one last weird thing with facebook.

There is an issue with the market right now where you cant install some apps. There is a work around though, you'll need to edit your build.prop and change your dpi from 161 to 160 and make these changes
ro.product.model=SCH-I500
ro.product.brand=verizon
ro.product.name=SCH-I500
ro.product.device=SCH-I500
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung
reboot, goto setting>manage applications>all>market>clear data
and you'll be good to go for awhile, every once and a while you'll have to clear the data for the market.
there is a thread on it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1218974
How do I edit build.prop?
This should go in the general forum, not development.
