Can someone please tell me what the recommended SD card partitions is? I mean will ext4 be used to store any data?

Also, once installed how does one get into recovery to install gapps?

EDIT: I was able to get into recovery by going into developer options and selecting advanced reboot.

Yes ext4 will be used to store data. In fact the ext4 partition on the sdcard will be mounted as the internal data partition. It will be used to store the apps and app data.

Thanks. Do you know if the ext4 partition should have a particular cluster size?

Just use default (if there is such a setting).
Otherwise, I would recommend the bigger the better.
It's faster, but more data hungry.
As for the size of the partition, I use 8 GB, but anything above 2 GB is OK for this tablet (depends on how much large games you will install).

Hello, how does the performance on this rom comparte to the older ones with Android 4.1.1?

I did flash this with my microsd card 8Gb partition right and it is slow as hell :( , the "BUILD 20130815" had problems with keyboard force close n my viewpad 10s and i hab to play with the governor to get the tablet running more then just the bare system...


if anyone is still using the viewpad 10s which version of this rom do you use as your daily driver?
the latest version of this rom feels more like a alpha than beta or any thing else...


can i do anything to get it fast or close to the performance it should be by clearing it's "cache" ?

The kind of sdcard you are using makes a world of diffrence. you should get a decent performance with the right sdcard (optimized for 4k block writes)

Hi all

I'm just looking to give my kids my old Advent Vega as a tablet so looking into flashing a new ROM etc but with the correct partitions set up on my MicroSD card (1st Fat32, 2nd ext4) and using the NV Flash method which appears to work fine even after several tries my tablet gets stuck on the CyanogenMod boot logo. I have even left it overnight and came back to the same boot logo - does anyone have any ideas that aren't already in this old and long thread (which I have reaD) before I try VegaCream RC2?

Thanks

I find this glitchy. Also the in2ext doesn't get reported properly in clean master (maybe an app issue). I've had a couple of unforced shutdowns as well. I have tried alsorts, and as an experienced modder, I'm guessing the CM is just overstretching the old beast a tad, although I haven't seen any thing odd in any reports on the tab.

A repo with all the Advent vega ROMs...

Hi, i am ejtagle! ... Yesterday I found an old backup of mostly all the ROMs we were working with Scanno and several other people. I also found the source code for the lunch targets and for the linux kernel and wifi modules ... I guess that this information is mostly gone from the Internet (8 years have passed since we were working on this device!) ...
I prefer to post it to avoid losing this information and work. So, in case anyone is curious or wants to play with it, it will be available.

All the information i have has been uploaded to https:// gitlab.com / ejtagle / p10an01 , including the precompiled ROMs

If you are curious, I still have the Vega with me, and it still works. It is slow compared with new devices, and the lack of NEON instruction set makes most of new Android programs crash , but, nevertheless, the tablet still runs.

And yes, the battery life is stil superb. 10 hours...

Hope it helps
Eduardo

PS: I still can´t believe XDA bans me posting urls in the messages ... Well... seems it believes I am a "new" user :cyclops:

Hey @ejtagle,
How are you doing. Still have my PoV Mobii lying around somewhere, but have not touched it for years.
Thanks for the builds. I only kept the latest ones.

Hi Scanno! ... Lately i have considered ... again... to revive the PoV ... Tegra2 devices lack neon support, but nowadays we can emulate neon instructions (there are several roms that do exactly that for Tegra2 based devices).
The main 2 reasons that are making me think if it is worth the trouble or not is that PoV does have 512kb of RAM. That is the main issue. With that amount of RAM, the usefullness of this device is questionable as a tablet ...

    [INTRODUCTION]
    This ROM is mainly created by Scanno with the help of EJTagle (for kernel work and drivers). This ROM is based on the CM10.1 sources and has the most CM10.1 features included.

    Why a CM rom after a couple of AOSP ROMS? Well the main reason is that android 4.2 has a new interface and i do not like it that much. CyanogenMod includes some inteface enhancements that i personally think adds some additional value.

    Please remember that I and EJtagle are *NOT* professionals and do this in our spare time. We all have full time jobs and a family. So be happy that there is an Android ROM based on Android 4.2 / JellyBean for a device that was sold with Android 2.2 and never had an update.

    We do our best to make this ROM as good as possible. With VegaCream and VegaBean we gave you a ROM that gave a new life to your tablet and unleashed its full potential. But we are not wizzards and there might be problems that we cannot solve or do not have time for.

    [FEATURES]
    This ROM is an unofficial CM10.1 and has most CyanogenMod features included.

    [INSTALLATION]
    As you all might know we have very limited internal storage space. So this ROM needs a different internal memory layout. The whole /data partition (where the user data and apps are installed) needs to be on the sdcard.

    [SDCARD]
    You SDCARD needs to be partitioned the following way:
    - First partition needs to be FAT32
    - Second partition needs to be EXT4
    - Make sure there is NO extended partition

    [FLASHING]
    The first time you flash this ROM you *HAVE* to flash the NVFlash version to make sure the internal memory is formatted the correct way.
    Make sure you have the GApps downloaded and put on your SDCard (see goo-inside.me/gapps)

    [NVFLASH]
    Download the NVFlash version and make sure your tabet is connected to the power supply and that the tablet is connected to your computer.
    Put the tablet into NVFlash mode (by using 2 seconds back key, 2 seconds power key, 2 seconds back key)
    Run the NVFlash executable and if everything goed right, the ROM will be flashed.
    Reboot the tablet and as soon as the tablet finishes booting, reboot the tablet into recovery mode.
    Once in recovery, do a factory reset and then right after that flash the Google apps zip file you downloaded.

    [RECOVERY]
    Download the zip file and put the file on your SDCARD.
    Boot into recovery.
    Do a factory reset (or you can try just clearing cache and dalvik-cache).
    Flash the zip file.
    Right after flashing the ROM, flash the gapps zip file.
    Reboot.

    [WORKING]
    - 3G
    - Audio
    - Video
    - Wifi
    - Touchscreen
    - Most regular things

    [NOT WORKING]
    - Bluetooth. Due to the fact that Google has introduced a new Bluetooth stack in 4.2, Bluetooth
    *NOT* work. Efforts to get Bluetooth working has ended.

    this does work - use minitool partition wizard to create the EXT4 partition (i recommend 1gb)
