Roebeet, Rothnic, and Myself have been hard at work to bring you what we hope will be the killer ROM for our G-Tablets. Now that we have hit BETA status, we are interested in hearing your feedback including issues and feature requests.
The projects git home is here: https://github.com/gojimi/VEGAn-TAB
(here you will find all project code and mods. we are using a free account there and space is limited so ACTUAL RELEASES will happen in the Thread that Roebeet has already started)
Issues and feature requests can be followed and posted here: https://github.com/gojimi/VEGAn-TAB/issues
(please read before posting new issues or features request so we don't fill up with duplicates. you may also vote up the issues you feel are most important and we can concentrate on those areas based on your feedback.)
The wiki for VEGAn-TAB will be here: https://github.com/gojimi/VEGAn-TAB/wiki
(there is nothing there yet.... but as we approach a production stable ROM we may be adding some info here)
Thank you for all your support and patience as we iron out some of the more major issue. (ie. SSL! phew so glad we figured that one out..... such a simple mistake too!)
I am usually buried in CODE or REWORK of current framework that I don't come up for air to check XDA much.... But I do watch the GIT Repo and I will try to make a greater effort to keep an eye on this post.
For questions to issues that you are having but others aren't your answer may still be best answered in Roebeet's post.

The single issue I am having is random factory browser crash, and It is the reason that I have kept the tablet.
Can you guys include a tun/tap module to allow OpenVPN to work?
I can't get the Ad Hoc Tether to work from my rooted Hero phone. I had it working on the Zpad with this fix: http://www.chinadigitalcomm.com/android-a81/a81e-connect-to-ad-hoc-wifi-t1413.html
Any thoughts? Anyone else able to connect to an Ad Hoc Tether?
Edit (Fix) I was using the wrong fix. The fix it to apply the wpa6_adhoc-signed.zip
This was the fix I initially did on the Zpad rom, I just messed up and did the wrong fix...
I had a problem with the sound, sdcard, fc on websites, and changing the soft buttons. It was killer despite those issues. Also rotation of the home screen.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Do you guys still been able to copy the files from laptop to G Tablet running beta? I can't do that. Is there any trick to it or you guys using 2nd SD card?

I had the same issues
I installed the WPA_adhoc-signed.zip and it solved my tethering issues. I tried to find the orginal post with the link to he downlaod but couldn't find it.
I know that there is talk of it in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842004&highlight=wpa_adhoc
and this one too
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=854682&highlight=wpa_adhoc
The only issue I have so far is with Grooveshark FCing. Sign up and tutorial screens work fine but the actual interface never loads. Otherwise, great work on this. Its very responsive and other than the GS FCs I have no FCs.
Thank you guys for your hard work.
Wanted to answer a few of the questions. If I forget you I apologize.
OPENVPN support- we'll look into that feature for the future. (MAY not make it into betas)
wpa_supplicant issues.ie adhoc tether. This is an oversight. Should be in next beta
Most of the sound and stock browser FCS have been fixed(Ssl now works)
SD card issues. We are aware and they are all potentially related to a hack we implemented to get external sd support working. This issue includes the internal SD disappearance when connected to pc via usb. This is my PRIMARY focus right now.
Again thank you all for your patience and feedback.
Is there a way to change the launch applications along the bottom? Even if it's a file to modify.

Tmk, it's not fixable. It seems to be hardcoded, silly as that may sound.

I plan on making a supplement or maybe a full image with the same supplicant binary in TnT Lite, plus that updated Gallery and a clean hosts file.
Working on TnT Lite 2.3.0 primarily at the moment, however. I guess I need two devices!
Another random question. .. I am on Tina lite 2.2 and find it to be super stable and flexible. I am concerned about what will happen when the battery gets to low : )
What happens with this rom when the charge runs out?
With b3 I find that I have to clear devoric cache after each shutdown or I lose the ability to run certain apps. Any suggestions?

I have not, but I have big issues with going back and forth between builds - I can't do it with this beta or else I have a big freezing problem, and apps go missing.
Can Not build VEGAn-TAB from source ???
I tried building the source from
VEGAn-TAB git hub
But it seem that there are missing. When I ran
repo init -u < the url submited in this thread for the git> ( it does not allow me to add urls)
I received the following error
fatal: manifest 'default.xml' not available
fatal: manifest default.xml not found
Is it possible to build VEGAn-TAB from source? If it is can you please let me know how?
Thanks
what do i have with VEGAn Beta4??
the only issues i have with this rom is with sdcard2 or the microSD card, only when i put jpeg files in it and i open the gallery to load them and when i do a reboot all the pictures are gone from the microSD card, but just the pictures i can open the music player and play all songs and reboot and they still in there the issue is only for me with image files. After i update the kernel with the patch that has been post on the vegan beta4 topic i think this is almost perfect....i hope you can fix the files getting erased on the microSD card.....but after all you guys are doing and amazing job with all the ROMS you have made....i'm very gratefull for all the work you have done, you make love more this tablet....thanks a lot!

Look and make sure there is NOT a .nomedia file in your picture folders, that will prevent them from showing.
Sent from my SGH-T959
the problem is not the files are not shown on the gallery, the problem is that the pictures are all deleted after i open the gallery and makes the pictures appear in it, so when i reboot the tablet all my pictures get deleted, even if a browse the microsd card with my computer and not in the tablet...all the files are gone!....

After installing dexter's 1.3 mod, i still do not see market....I know mod works because of sound volume change...I checked sd card on tablet and it shows update.zip.zip but on laptop card reads update.zip only...is that where the problem lies?

Edit: BTW, there was no volume change, the mod didn't install.
i dont know wy people dont explain this better. instead of just reposting links to instruction that need clarification.

Not quite. If you do that on any of my workstations or laptops you will end up with a file
named just 'Update.'
It all depends on the settings you have in Windows File Manager.
If a user is going to be dealing with file extensions then the feature that is set to
'Hide File Extensions' needs to be disabled, Hence the link to the post on how to do that.
The instructions in the posting do not need clarification, File Manager needs tweaking
and that is how it needs to be configured to eliminate confusion.
It's rough that MS still realies on file extensions. And then when users are trying to do
something that requires that detail it gets confusing.

Are you serious? Get off the cheap drugs, the expensive ones won't $#% you up so bad.
I think you are actually the one that started me on that rant that I linked (that went into enough detail that it described, and gave instructions on how to fix people's common issues from TWO OPERATING SYSTEMS!) You keep telling people "just name it update" you are wrong, dead wrong. the file NEEDS to be update.zip and your generalization will only cause issues for people that wouldn't have had them otherwise... So it looks like you are the one that posts instructions that need clarification.
I posted the link because it had already been answered, I am not going to type until I am blue in the face just because some people don't have the gift of search.

It's unfortunate that you had to type all that out just because this kid won't actually read the content of a link that, as it ends up, was in response to him anyway lol
I think we need concentrate on more important things instead dispute of update.zip
Anybody can call techsupport and ask about Gingerbread? Nvidia posted system image (for Tegra Development Boarder) with Android 2.3 already.

I just received an A7 that I purchased for my wife. Want to add the marketplace and the ability to tether with an EVO. Have been reading and am worried that I may do more damage than good. If anyone has the time to help a beginner, I would be sincerely appreciative. Thanks and have a great day!

1) Install elocitymod 1.3 on your A7 (install instructions are at the beginning of the thread for it in the A7 Development section)
2) Wait on the bluetooth fix to see if you have any problems (I am running without the BT fix and running fine, others have issues and the BT fix helps them out)
3) If you don't want to pay Sprint $30 extra a month you are going to have to root the EVO
3a) Use unrevoked3 (quick google search)
I would recommend doing it from a Mac just because it is easier, PC you have to install drivers.
3b) Once the EVO is rooted, install "Wireless Tether" from the Market (on the EVO)
4) Profit.
This is pretty much my setup and I love it. I have done other modifications to my A7 and my EVO, but nothing that would alter this.
Help Please
Thank you so much for your reply, sincerely appreciate it. Be patient with me, new to this stuff. I downloaded the mod and tried to install, with no luck. It downloaded five different files, which one should be renamed to update or update.zip? Downloaded pda.net on the evo and on the laptop and it worked fine. Just wasn't sure what to download for the A7 to make it work. Thanks again and have a great day.

the file ElocityModv13.zip should be update.zip
Make sure Hide extensions for known file types is OFF in Windows.
I'm starting to suspect that the micro card reader in the A7 might just be finicky.
What size and type of Micro SDCard are you using?
Do me a favor and do a 'Properties' on the Dexter Mod file and post back what size is reported.
Try formatting the card this way: -=- LINK -=-

mod on SD Card
I think the ELocity only supports the micro SHDC cards not vanilla micro SD cards. Someone else in another thread had a problem with update.zip and it turned out it was on a vanilla micro SD card and when they used a micro SDHC card it worked.
Just trying to work my way through GMPOWER's tutorial on rooting the Nook Color.
I have some REALLY basic questions that are probably covered in the instructions, but if it's NEW, which it is for anyone reading here...it's confusing:
For example,
1. What is meant by the bold, red warning........"You must do a complete wipe before installing this package." Does "wipe" mean FORMAT? If yes......format what? The NOOK? The SD card? Both?
2. In the video included in the tutorial, there's reference to an unZIPing program being required to 'uncork' the downloaded files. The narrator says to right click and unzip the files. (When I right click on my zipped files, the only command I see that MIGHT an unzip function is "Extract all". Is that an unzip program?)
3. The most 'complicated' process of all, (to me, anyway) the selecting of the files and unzipping them and "flashing" them (is that just another word for copying or installing?) is passed over so quickly and with the camera so far away from the screen in the video....it's very difficult to see and understand exactly what is happening. For example, at exactly 4:06 into the video, the narrator says to right click on the CWM file.....at which point, it looks like he actually LEFT clicks it and it opens to show TWO files.....and he then RIGHT clicks on one of them, but doesn't say what it's name is or what it should do.
Sorry to sound like a whiney noob......but, remember, only noobs are watching this; otherwise we wouldn't be watching it!
Can someone please elaborate on the click here.....now do this......then do that.......then you will see this......and now you have to do these? I'm sure I speak for more people than just myself when I ask this.
Thanks very much for any help.

I'm running CM10 and have not seen the video you speak of... But I think I can help with some of what you're looking for.
1. Wipe and format are often used synonymously. For example wiping your system or data partition on your device is the same as formatting. If the video is talking about the SD card, the same philosophy applies. A formatted card is ideal before starting.
2. Again, unzip and extract are somewhat synonymous. What program they are likely referring to is 7zip. It's a powerful compression and decompression utility.
3. Flashing describes the process of installing a package(ROM, zip, etc...) from one media(SD in this case) and installing it to a normally read only media (the Nook's internal drive. Including the system and data partitions of the disk) This is usually done through a recovery program that starts up instead of the normal OS. In most cases it is Clockwork Mod recovery (CWM) or something very much like it.
Like I said, I haven't seem the video and never went the manual nooter route. I totally wiped stock nook and went the CyanogenMod route. So I can't comment on the video's vagueness in this case. Maybe another member has some insight on this.

Yes, that means you have windows explorer looking at the drive. That locks it so it cannot be written to. Close windows explorer and try again.

Thanks very much for the suggestion, leapinlar,.....but I'm still getting the Lock error even after making sure ALL windows of Explorer are closed (especially any for the SD drive).
Dumb question: I don't think either the text from GMPOWER or the video ever state WHERE the win32 diskimager and/or the clockwork-3.2.0.1 should be residing when these operations are taking place. I would ASSUME they're all supposed to be on the SD card....but I've been wrong before when assuming!!
Also, when I first tried this, I noticed I had downloaded (and possibly extracted) the win32diskimager-source.zip (SOURCE) version as opposed to the BINARY version. Should I start over? With a cleanly formatted SD? (my formatting took a long, long time when I initially did it.......not using the Quick method, as I think I saw advised somewhere.)
Thoughts? Thanks!
EDIT: Actually, I think I just answered PART of my question: when I tried it again (after formatting the SD and putting ALL three zipped files on the card) I got a new/different error:
"Image file cannot be located on the requested device." So, I guess that means that at least the "eyeballer" image file CANNOT be sitting on the SD card while you attempt to "write" it there. Yes? No?
Therefore....by the same token....is it safe/possible to run the Win32DiskImager from the SD card.....or should it ALSO be located somewhere else during this process??
ANOTHER EDIT: Tried removing the image file from the SD card, then running DiskImage and selecting the image file that I'd downloaded and unzipped to my hard drive. STILL got the "lock error". Getting frustrated. Most grateful for any suggestions/help. Please and Thanks
You definitely need the img file on your PC before you try to burn. Having it on SD and putting that location in the image box will definitely lock the card. Try again with nothing on the card and no other program running.

That was apparently my problem
I formatted the card back to being a virgin.....put NOTHING on it. Went to Win32 on my hard drive, launched it, found the eyeballer image on my HARD DRIVE and selected it to flash onto my card in the G-drive.
And away it went!!! Lovely! Just friggin lovely!!
Now, since instructions everywhere often seem to be devoid of these fine "details".......could you be so kind as to give me EXPLICIT directions on what to do next? (I'd hate to turn my Nook Color into a paperweight at this stage!)
The sequence of events (i.e. when the nook gets turned on/turned off/hooked up/ etc seem to be different in different places........I notice even the video from Acsyndicate TV, they insert a little apology in the corner saying they forgot to turn it on; DOH!! Also, I see elsewhere that the Nook should be connected by USB at some point during this process....and yet the guy in the video doesn't have a cable showing anywhere any time. WTF??)
Thanks tons for your help leapinlar.......I'm almost at the point of not buggin you any more!

I rooted a virtually STOCK Nook Color (1.4.3) using manualnooter-5.08.20.basic.block_updates.zip - and it appeared to be fine, but I'm assuming there's a routine that must be followed to either "turn on" the ability to download......or free up some space to download......new apps.....which, after all, is the only reason we root these things.......right?

You apparently have a lot of B&N stuff (apps, games, etc) installed (1.7 GB worth), but 3.35 GB should be plenty for installing more apps through Play Store. I don't know what your issue is.
Edit: You do not say, but I am assuming you meant downloading apps with Play Store. If you meant downloading some other way, like a browser, you need an sdcard to do that and you have not said how much room your SD card has.

OK....good feedback....THANKS!
1. Yes, I mean to download using Play Store (which currently is labeled MARKET. Presumably it'll update itself and change its name to GOOGLE PLAY when we get the storage problem solved.......will it?
2. I have next to no previous apps or media (maybe 4 apps and 4 books and 3 magazines) downloaded to the NC......but, perhaps it doesn't take much to fill this puppy?
3. I don't even have an SD card in it at this point. I removed the one I used to do the rooting because it booted to it when I started up the Nook this AM........and I assumed that was a bad thing.....or, at least unnecessary.
Should I erase the "rooting SD card"........or "keep it in a safe place" and use a new one for downloading/storing apps and media?
Thanks,
Mike

1. It should have changed itself immediately. That may be indicative of the problem.
2. Are any of the books kids interactive books? They take a lot of space.
3. If you did not make a backup with the CWM card, and you don't plan to restore the backup in the future, then reformat the card to use as a normal SD. But I recommend you do the backup and keep the card as CWM. Then get a new one.

1. Hmmmm. Hope THAT'S not a disaster. "Market" opens Ok and I can see hundreds (maybe thousands) of apps. But, I've used the search utility and searched for "Google Play".........."Google"..........and even "Market"........and no Google Play comes up in the search results. Shouldn't it?
2. No kids in the familly; no 'interactive' stuff of any kind that I know of....a couple of novels, couple of magazines.....sodoku, Evernote, YouTube, calculator, a little drum machine, flashlight.......mirror......holy crap, looks like wifey's been active after all!!
3. I DIDN'T make a backup with (of ?) the CWM card. Back up of what, exactly......the old disk image (operating system? Pardon my noobiness). Is it too late to make any required copies/backup? I just now copied the contents of the "rooting SD card" into a folder on my laptop's hard drive.......but I'm not sure if that's what you're talking about.

1. That may be the problem. It should update itself, but is not critical. The older versions of market temporarily stored their downloads on a separate partition named cache. That may be full from earlier downloads. Boot to CWM and there is an option to wipe cache. Do that. Then try to use market again.
3. The CWM card is capable of making what is called a nandroid backup. It backs up your entire operating system to SD so that if in making future mods, you make a mistake, you can restore your operating system to the way it was before you started making mods. It is too late to do that for you, but you can still backup what you have now.

I'll give that a try......booting with CWM and wiping the cache. (Out of town on family 'duties' and left the nook at home but will report back on Monday sometime.)
Thanks for "babysitting" me, buddy! Appreciate it. Have a great weekend. Later, Mike.
Hello,
I'm coming from S2 to S4, and I have a really weird issue: The default music player shows errors while trying to playing any mp3 track "Sorry, the player doesn't support this type of audio file", and the player goes crazy then freezes. It happens also when I try to select an mp3 ringtone from sound settings, no matter what player I use "Stock, MixZing, PowerAMP, Winamp, or Player Pro".
I've searched Google & XDA, a solution was recommended by someone to remove the official Twitter app. I did, but the problem persists. I also try unmouning & remounting the SD card, removing & re-adding my music, and even restoring factory settings, still the same.
Any ideas?
Baseband version: I9500XXUAMDE
Build number: JDQ39.I9500XXUAMDE
Bump!
This is still ongoing .. Can someone please assist?
I also tried formatting SD Card, putting my music on both internal & external storages, no use.
Any help is much appreciated.

I'm listening trance music. The mp3 file sometimes reach up to 200Mb and I saw that only ones. So I just wiped cache/dalwik and it's disappear.
hmmm
Did you flashed Wanam Rom via CLEAN install ? (or on top?)
BTW your base (Baseband version: I9500XXUAMDE) is too old.
Update your rom

Clean. I also have tracks that exceed 300 MB (3 hrs Armin mixes), and they were working just fine on my S2.
This is really weird.

Hello mate,
Tried your suggestion, and I can't believe that I still have the same stupid error!
Any other ideas? Can you please attach your stock music apps so I can try them?
U need a samsung branded memory card, I had the same issue and had to get a samsung card

hi mate..
i'm also using S4 i9500, but didn't facing with any issues.
i'm suggest to use one mp3/music player to avoid software conflict.Let say u use poweramp make sure put all songs on ur sd card..open the player - setting - folder and library - music folder - unmarked top - make sure all boxes empty without marking - scroll down - u'll see one box marked (should be "music") - tap on music folder to check ur songs available or not. - if ur songs folder showed, u can play as usual..
that wht i've done for mine.

I dunno about that, I just bought a 32 GB class 10 Kingston, and the problems persists with/without it. I don't think I can change it now. Thanks though.

I'm ignoring the stock music player for now. Trying Rocket Player, and will check PowerAmp. Thanks for the suggestion.
The only problem I found with the S4, is the black one is louder than the white one (well on the I9505X demo models that I have tried) but even more than that is the Black I9505X demo models are louder than the Black I9505 retail models.
The I9505 is not available here so I can't really compare the voice loudness.
Can someone please attached the music app from the stock I9500 ROM?

Maybe the media files are corrupt. Try deleting these files, reformat your memory and recopy media to your memory.

All that has been done already. Sadly, the same stupid error remains.
Only use my Note 3 to play audio and video files.
Recently noticed some video files missing on a 64GB exFAT mSD card.
1st thought they had been deleted by Note 3.
Just did a chkdsk scan and everything OK. Have a screen capture of this but do not know how to attach.
Additional Info: My Note 3 has stock Android 4.4.2 (KitCat) and never rooted.
Am Open to all suggestions how to correct this problem.
Hey I might can offer some assistance. BUT IM A FRESH NEWBIE TO THIS. I MEAN I JUST STARTED REALLY MESSING WITH MY PHONE 2 DAYS AGO. First what type of note 3 do you have? (ie. Sprint=SM-N900P) do you have service on your phone? Do you have any experience with custom ROMs?
SurageBook said:

I hope not as this is not the Sprint model forum .
OP i would copy data off then full format sd card as a starter .
Damaged files look in the Lost Files folders .

SurageBook "what type of note 3 do you have?" Verizon "have service on your phone?" No "Do you have any experience with custom ROMs?" No
JJEgan "...i would copy data off then full format sd card as a starter." Agree did copy the wanted data.
As previously mentioned have used Windows longer than Android so used chkdsk to examine & fix the mSD Card. Everything was OK and all the missing files were shown and Not damaged,
Since posting I backed up all the wanted data and then put the mSD card back in my Note 3. All the missing files were there and undamaged. Can anyone explain this?
From experience most Windows users reload the OS every few years.
Am wondering if I should Factory reset my Android 4.4.2 OS?
Any recommendations?
Man if you just use that phone for a media device just create a backup of your phone, SD card, and copy it to your PC then install custom ROMs until you find one you like and root that bad boy. My note 3 is my primary phone with service and I have about 10 custom ROMs on my SD card that I switch every couple of days. Earlier today I was on Havco OS 2.8 android 9 now I'm on some rom that when it turns on theres a pink unicorn and its on android 7. Its easier than you think. Things you need are 1. TWRP(for your phone model) 2. Odin(on PC to flash things to your phone*optional) 3. Custom ROM 4. magisk(to root your phone) 5. Gapps (for the android version that's on the custom rom*optional) 6. Enjoy
SurageBook Thanks for the tips!
Do you know if any good tutorials concerning how to root the Verizon version of Note 3?
I don't know about Verizon I'm on sprint but if you go to the Verizon section you'll find a guide for your firmware. https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-note-3/general
Please guys post in the forum for your phones .
Otherwise i see a reply on here not your models leading to a bricked phone .
