Other apps that ran flawlessly for a couple of weeks are now are starting to get force closes.

I don't know if i am alone with these issues, but I am torn between doing a reinstall or waiting for ICS to get a little more stable.

Anyone else notice their 2.9.1 install slowly becoming more unstable?
Been on ICS since first alpha was released. Been on buttah since it was released and it super stable for me. Only one reboot after playing a game for an hour followed by tapatalk for another. Haven't had any problems with anything except a couple browser force closes, to rare to bother me tho.

Yes, the same thing is happening to me. I have mine running 2.9.1, mounted next to my bed. Only thing I do is use it for an alarm clock, calendar and watch netflix before dropping off to sleep.

Worked great for a couple weeks, but now, I'm seeing the same wi-fi disconnects, netflix sputters and pauses at least once every episode. Haven't changed routers, and the router is only about 4 feet away, and my other wls devices, including phones and notebooks don't seem to be having any problem.

I was thinking of just re-flashing, but I can't imagine how (other than it resetting all the data), that it would just "go bad".

But yes, I am seeing the same type thing.
AT&T SGS4 stock, rooted.

I'm one of the diehards still on 2.9.1 and except for one touchscreen lockup, and one won't wake up, i haven't had any reboots or any other ongoing issue.
never had any problems with wifi, and i use wifi toggle on home screen.
power or home button to turn on display, hit wifi toggle, and I'm good to go.
Netflix, forums, lotta web browsing, gmail, cribbage and real racing 2.
i don't use the camera that 'works' but doesn't take pictures
sorry, i know what you mean, but i find that funny !
when I'm done, i hit wifi toggle off, hit screen off & lock icon on home screen (one less power button press),
and it's back to sleep.
2.9.1 pretty damn solid in my book.

Maybe WiFi is the problem. I leave it on, maybe it is munching through the bits internally while in sleep mode. Kind of like a sleep disorder!

I'll try what you do, I have a WiFi widget because I continually have to bounce it anyway when it hangs.

Thanks. I did find this version from searching the net but I was hoping for a better solution because this way I'd have to search again each time there's an update. Obviously it's not the end of the world but I just thought there might be a way of getting the market to recognise the Touchpad as a tablet. Maybe by editing the build.prop or something? I know some phone ROMs do something similar in order to be able to play certain games.

Edit: Nevermind, found the solution here I think http://rootzwiki.com/topic/15568-rel...compatibility/

I feel stupid as i have a few questions.

I have tried to follow the instructions on the main page but with the Novacom drivers, i cannot find them. Where could i download them from? Or even some clearer instructions, or a way that someone managed to install Android onto there touchpad???




Thanks

Just finished watching it and all is working well!!! The Rom seems a little laggy. Guess it needs to settle over time??
