Hello,
I am new here and have found some answers but no solution for this problem, so I try again by a new thread (sorry if I missed an answer)
I want to charge my tab through the usb connection to my pc or in my car and not only through the AC-adapter.
In the development discussion is this theme going on (page 101):

I don't kmow why this error, I am root, but anyway, I changed this value directly using root explorer and a text editor and it works for me, now I have enabled usb and non-samsung-charger charging.
Thanks a lot!

You are using Terminal Emulator ? If yes then no need to write adb shell, just su first then echo 1 > /sys/class/power_supply/battery/force_usb_charging
I followed this instruction by Using the Terminal Emulator. Changing to "1" works fine until I restart my tab, than its back to "0" and I do have to change it again.
How can I keep the wanted setting to "1" ?
Thanks for help in advance

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 P7500 3G + Wifi
Latest nightly CM10.1 JB 4.2.2
TWRP 2.4.1.0
CM10 and 10.1 Jellybean come with USB charging already enabled. Wonder why yours doesn't work. Anyway you may need to change your kernel first before activating the feature. I heard A1 kernel works great, I use Pershoot kernels in both JB 4.1.2 and 4.2.1 which I interchange depending on what I need to do. Both have the feature. I also use stock ICS but I never bothered with the feature there.

John,
Thanks for your help.
Changed the kernel to the A1 1.8.4. P4 G3 and its working again.
I had the Kernel 3.1.10 from CM from somewhere in Januari on it and somewhere it went wrong with that one.
The A1 is doing what I needed.
Thanks
Peter
problem not solved
Today I updatet to the nightly 28-02 and noticed that charging over usb connection is not working. The kernel is back to [email protected]#4 Wed jan 16 05:31:00EST 2013 and guess what:
Charging through a usb connection to PC is disabled.
So I have to change the Kernel back to the A1 again.
kernel changed
Changed the Kernel to A1 version: 3.1.10_A1_V1.8.4. [email protected] #283 Sun Dec 23 16.02.03 EST 2012.
USB charging is working!
So I presume that in the Pershoots Nightly the Kernel is disabling usb charging. Or is there another way to activate the usb-charging?
Peter
Did a full wipe and installed the cm10.1 - 20130301 Nightly. Same issue. Had to install the A1 kernel again.
Updated to todays version 05/03/2013. Noticed that the Kernel has been updated to: [email protected]#4 SunMar 3 19:35:46 EST 2013.
No charging over usb connection.
Changed to A1 and charging is working.

you have to activate it.
the instructions are right above you. must be root.
i had it enabled automatically (for a short time), but this cauised issues with certain tabs in the suite (the touchscreen would go bonkers) when plugged in and booting, so i removed it. its also safer not to have it on by default, because not all pcs can supply a consistent voltage output. if the power going to the battery is waivering, it could potentially cause issue.
samsung did not have this enabled at all (probably for that very reason).
Thanks
Pershoot,
Thank you for your reply. The solution of activating as I copied above is only working until the next reboot.
I now understand why you did not activate this, and I will take good notice of your advice. Nevertheless it is rather strange that I do not experience any problem using the A1 kernel.
Greatings,
Peter

dont forget, thousands of people and their tabs have to be attenuated for with any changes done. it may work for you and your tab, but that doesn't mean it will work out for anyone else and their tabs.
there's a lot of variance there.
Suggestion
Maybe someone is able to make a third option in usb-connection-tab, so you can switch usb charging on and of, the same as MTP and PTP.
Settings>Storage and hit the menu button then 3 USB Options: MTP, PTP and Charging over USB

I received one of these the other day and began to tinker. Rooted with Gingerbreak v1.2, installed the full market, and busybox. All with no problems. I would like to change a few other things but with out having CWM to make a backup, I am a little cautious. When I go into the FWUpdate, it tells me there is an update. I tracked down the file on the web, downloaded it ( all 300 megs worth) and have been looking at it. If anyone would be interested it this file for development purposes I could upload it or provide the link of where to get it from.
Ive downloaded it. So far it fixes bugs. But you have to use root explorer to clear the unwanted apps
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
Well I started dissecting the update. Found it is still 2.3.1, it uses fuse to manage the file system, and has an updated recovery. The file system layouts are a little different than what I normally see on my Incredible. It has separate mbr, uboot, kernel, env, system, ramdisk, ect... I would really like to change the density but with out having adb working or a custom recovery, if I use a value that is not compatible I am in a world of hurt.
Yeah its still the same. For nw i currently waiting for cm7 for viewpad 7e. Btw the viewpad 7e isnt big and limited people.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
Granted it is not a XOOM or a Galaxy Tab, but I don't think it should be it should be overlooked for development. I am not much of a programmer, but I do like to try. If a current developer could give some guidance as to how to build a custom recovery that would be beneficial.
Andy try power off the vp7e and then hold the power, volume
Up and down button. It resets my tablet.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA App
Yep, Power on with volume down boots into bootloader with a boot flag of 1 and volume up while power on also boots into recovery but with a boot flag of 2. Not sure what the difference is with the boot flag. I know that in both modes with usb pluged in, it is seen by my windows computer as a Viewpad 7e. Which is the same thing that is shown when I have usb debugging turned on with usb pluged in after a normal boot. I looked into the adb thing and I cant get adb to see it, even on my linux box. Kinda wierd the vendor id is 0bb0, Concord Camera Corp.
For now we have to wait for a custom recov and cm7 for our tablets

My viewpad 7e keeps rebooting after rooting - please help
Hi Andyav.... I saw your post that you have downloaded the firmware for viewpad 7e. It may be my best chance to recover my viewpad 7e and have it working again.
My viewpad 7e started a reboot-loop after I rooted it with gingerbreak and ran the google market installation.
I need to restore the original firmware but I can't find it anywhere.
Please send me a link and allow me to download your copy of the firmware for the 7e. I would really appreciate if you could do this for me.
My email address is [email protected]
Hoping you would reply soon...
thanks,
Ariel(Reapjack)
Could you also sned me a link to the firmware. I received one yesterday, but its downloading the firmware at about 5% an hour for some reason! If I used this copy for firmware and put it on a micro sd and update the viewpad from that? Thanks in advance
My email is [email protected]
I pm the link to you for the update.
Reapjack - Not sure how you will install update. I would try to copy file to root of sd card and boot into recovery to see if it will install that way. If not rename it to update.zip to see if the recovery will work that way. Let us know know how it turns out and which way worked. Thanks.
I'm trying to download F70 VSAM_S_W_C_11282011.zip, but I have the same problem, the very slow download...
will you send me the firmware too?.
Thanks !

Update file ran but tablet keeps on rebooting..
Hi Andyav.. Thank you for the update file. The file ran as expected by putting it in the sdcard's root. The update went fine but my tablet still keeps on rebooting.
It seems that this update is overwriting only some files but not all. Maybe that part of the OS that was rooted earlier is not being overwritten. Would you know if there is a full update that will overwrite everyting?
Thank you again.... I appreciate the help so much!
Thanks Andyav !!!
I really appreciate your soon PM with the link.
I have problems with the spanish languaje, hope that this update fixt it.
I'll post the results.
Thanks again !

Reapjack - How did you apply the update. Through the recovery or through a normal boot? I know inside that update there is an updater-script for doing a full update, includes mbr, kernel, system...etc. I am not sure how to trigger it though. Maybe that’s what the boot flag is for in the recovery.
I did finally take the risk and adjust my density in the build.prop file. Tried a few different settings. Default is 180. I am currently running at 160 but did try 200 and 220. Looks good but the display is still not as clear as my phone (HTC Incredible running MIUI). I know the screens are not really comparable, but Viewsonic has been designing and building monitors for years and this is the best screen they could put in this tablet.
Also did some digging around on the internet about the host cable. Found a few here and there but I can be rather impatient at times, so I decided to make my own. Chopped off the end of an old Motorola house charger, shaved off al the plastic around the end, de-soldered the wires and one resistor from the small board. Then dismantled a usb cable I had made for my original Xbox, soldered the cable to the mini usb end, shorted pin 4 to pin 5, plugged her in with a keyboard attached and it worked, first try. I did notice that the host mode is not real reliable. After the initial test I could not get it recognize keyboard again. Checked all solder points, tested from usb female end to mini usb, all tested good. Several reboots with cable plugged in, nothing changed. I knows to go into host mode, I can see it switching when i run dmesg. But it just doesn't know what it attached to cable.
Andyav, i tot the lastest update is 20111125? I dont have the 28.... version for ota update.

After 12 hours of downloading, tried to upgrade from the internal application but after reboot, the process was canceled because it didn't find the .zip file on the sdcard. (error mounting sdcard)
Surely the problem was that the sdcard was not properly formatted.
Now,
the Recovery system shows 1.9 version and bootflag is only "1", regardless of the volume button I use to start (+ or -)
I formated the sdcard and tried to do a manual upgrade with the file downloaded directly from viewsonic: F70 VSAM_S_W_C_11282011.zip, but no luck, the recovery reported bad file.
Any help?
hellodzulz, will you tell me where did you dwonload the 20111125 update to try it

Over the last few days I have been trying to get the ready for custom roms when they become available. Digging around on the internet trying to find as much information as I could about the hardware. While digging around for devices that have custom roms and use the same processor line, I found some rather interesting information about the Galaxy S Unbrickable Mod. Basically it is a hardware mod that causes the phone to enter a Samsung download mode for flashing. Well I took the plunge and opened the case, found and verified the processor, broke out my multi-meter and went probing. Was able to locate the hardware that controls the boot sequence, preformed the mod and plugged it in to my linux box. Ran the Unbrickable Mod Mode Detector and it recognized it. HOLLY CRAP. I have to do a bit more research on utilizing this mod to our benefit but I an rather excited that this mod will work for us.
I've downloaded the file again and everything went ok.
May be the first download file was corrupted due to the slow transfer.
The errors that occurred when selecting Spanish language were resolved.
Anyway, there is an issue with bluetooth.
I can send files to other devices, but I cant receive with the VP7e, when I try to send some file, the VP7e don't show the popup window asking permission to receive file.
Is like it's denied by default.
Does somebody successfully tried to send/receive files with bluetooth ?
Thanks !

Hi all,
I have unlocked my bootloader on my Tablet Z SP311 16GB WiFi only model and attempted to install the nightly of pollux_windy from the CM team but got stuck in a bootloop on the CM logo screen.
I've now gone back to stock using an ftf file.
Don't suppose anyone knows when we will get a working 4.2.2 custom Rom for the SP311?
Or if someone could assist me with getting the pollux_windy CM Rom working that would be great.
Thanks for any help you can provide

I have it running on my SGP311. I had the boot loop too after installing, a wipe fixed it for me.
The wipe fixed it for me, too.
The only thing not working is the gps. Do you have trouble with your gps aswell?
HDMI out over MHL is also not working with CM, right?

Regarding the GPS, I will check asap and feed you back.
For me the most important was implement the launcher NOVA LAUNCHER, You can mod all the tablet by this launcher, including some touch gestures.

Yes, GPS still broken. It tried many thinks and Kali was working to find the fix, but no succeed by the moment.
There is two ways to solve the problem you can try:
- GPS needs to be activated running lock position at least one time on stock ROM. 3 Location modules needs to be enabled an be sure your GPS is working on google maps, navigation..... After this you can change already to custom ROM and GPS will lock whithout problems.
- The other way is to use the GPS of your android mobile. If you have SGP311, you will have always your android mobile very near. Install the app bluetooth GPS as client (tablet) and server (mobile) and all work fantastic. (This is the option Im running now).
Android Phone:
Step 1) Open Market and/or Install: GPS 2 Bluetooth
Step 2) If you do don't see the widget then reboot your phone.
Step 3) Turn on GPS
Step 4) Turn on your widget (press it)
Step 5) Turn on Bluetooth and pair with your SGP311.
Tablet SGP311:
Step 1) Open Settings
Step 2) Open Developer Options
Step 3) Enable "Allow Mock Locations" & Enable "USB Debugging"
Step 4) Open Market and/or Instal: Bluetooth GPS
Step 5) Turn on Bluetooth and pair with your android phone
Step 6) Open Bluetooth GPS
Step 7) Activate/Enable "Enable Mock GPS Provider"
Step 8) Press Connect.
ENJOY, finally you are not using the GPS all times. (GPS in tablet also activated...)
Comment your results from option you choose from above, thanks.

Has anyone realise sudden changes in brightness to 100% while using ?
Well I happens with my phone. Sometime at night when I set brightness to minimum and using my phone the brightness increases. To set to minimum I change the valve by sliding then back to minimum.
Are you guys are suffering from this problem or its just me.

@Chupi383 I want to draw your lillte attantion for once to post number #3, #5, #6. These are not serious issue. just i want to know if u have suffered these problem, maybe you have fix to share with us.
The root partition on Android is always in the initrd in the boot partition.
I see no option for video call of any sort on any firmware for this phone. It is designed for US use, and video call isn't a standard feature here.
No, USB OTG is not supported. The software stack for it is present, so some USB OTG detector apps will tell you it's supported, but the hardware for it is not there. I plugged in a few devices with USB OTG adapters that work on my Galaxy S7 Edge and nothing happens -- no power to the device, nothing detected on the phone. Even using a tee adapter that lets me power both the device and phone USB port, the phone doesn't enumerate or detect the device.
I have been using Google's contacts app successfully and it works well. I haven't tried assigning a "nickname" to a contact. It just shows their first and last name as I've entered them.
Brightness does randomly change to 100% on some firmware versions. Best I can tell, it only happens with USB debugging enabled, or possibly only after connecting to the phone on adb. Disable USB debugging and reboot after you're done hacking and it shouldn't do that anymore.

adb dont work on reseted phone, to anable you have to go setting > developer mode > USB debugging.
or wait for 30min to start phone since it take little time after reset
or you have bricked your alcatel
try using

Aslong as your device is 2/16GB this could possibly work.

So, i installed the Flashify app and used that instead...works great! So now i have TWRP 'loaded' i will give it a go in a few minutes....#fingerscrossed #yeah
Well...no USB-stick or microsdcard laying around at the moment and i also use 1 usb port for power and the other for remote control. So I ended up downloading the ROM directly to my T95Zplus.....no errore during flashing, wiped cache/dalvik and rebooting right now and so far so good...!

Well...that did not work....rebooted and after 15 minutes still nothing except the boot-screen (and before that animation)...so gonna try to figure out what went wrong...
So be warned if you are gonna try it like i did and not following OP to the letter!

Quite odd, if you flashed the rom in recovery, it should have worked :/
I did find a bug though, endless reboot if you try connecting wifi
So it's canned now

I didn't get a boot loop; however, attempt to activate wifi resulted in wifi switch button moving to on position and after ~3 seconds returning to the off position. Is it possible this needs to be debugged on a per-wireless-chipset basis? I'm on 8830 q201_6255....
Please advise and let me know if I can help out with logs, etc.
Thanks

From which firmware did you flash?
I don't know if partitions are different sizes and maybe that did trigger the bootloop? I come from goo.gl/hWrmxY (Android 7.1.1 with root, 1013) and that did not work so far...

Im gonna update it tonight, ill need someone to PM me, im gonna need someone to test as i dont have my TV box with me and im away on buisness, i think i have found the wifi bug, but as you can tell with the ROM ram usage is ALOT less, framework is much smoother and alot of apps have been updated from the manufacturer
Ill also be basing it on the newest build 1075(Or if anyone has a newer build PM me)
This rom will be pretty stock with more features implemented and possibly some apps i might make ffor the device

Hi and thanks a lot for works.
i flashed my 3gb/32gb variant with a 2gb/16gb rom and it's done. but if i setup my wifi in a few seconds the startup animation appears on the screen and hang during animation.
When i start the set top box with lan cable inside, it's hang at the end of start animation and stay on T95z plus logo with the space behind but without any network it's start and the launcher appear...
can you put in the HDMI section in setting menu ? to have the CEC support?

yes thats a bug, this is mean for 2/16GB variants, this is exactly like stock 7.1.2, if you have 3/32GB variant flash stock 7.1.2(build 1075)

OK. Thanks. I'm waiting for an solution about the connection trouble.
Maybe you can consider to bake a little reboot app (i use Simple Reboot) into the ROM cause it makes it much easier to test and restore/backup especially when there is no internet with this ROM at the moment.
For now I have some apk's ready on a sdcard so I will get there but would make things a little easier...

adb connect not working
Hi,
Thank you very much for all your effort Ricky. I have T95Z Plus 2/16 variatnt. I am unable to connect to my TV box using adb. I have USB debugging enabled on my TV box. The TV box and my Mac from where I am trying to run adb commands are on the same wifi network. I have tried connecting my TV box to my Mac using USB cable but still adb connection fails with error "Host is down" and sometimes "Operation timed out".
I cannot proceed further without this step. Any help is much appreciated.
Apart from adb, can I copy the files into SD card or USB drive and install it? If so, what will be the steps?
Thanks again!
Hi again,
I have a friends T95Z and trying to fix it up. It won't connect on WiFi. When you go to network settings - WiFi is switched off. If you switch it on - it "pretends" to search for about 40 seconds - finds no AP nearby and switches "Off".
I have wrenched on a number of these T95Z. boxes and always seem to get them working.*
Hats off to Superceleron and his ROM -* His ROM really cleaned up the first couple of these I worked on. They had the LTM8830 chipset I think.
Then I worked on a couple newer T95Z's and that ROM didn't work. If I recall - same thing where you can try and turn the WiFi on but it just turns off. I think they turned out to have the 9377 chipset. Found a workable ROM for them and all is well.
Okay so here are some pics of the insides of this one:**https://imgur.com/a/Kd2M1Ta
I flashed a bunch of ROMs - Here is like a list of some of the file names etc:
Poison ROM - https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...mputers/amlogic/t95z-plus-poison-rom-t3751720
T95ZPLUS_q200_9377_customV3.2

s912_atvXperience_v2FF
T95U PRO_S912_02012017_
v1016-EB-AGCF-LPDDR3-2G
Sorry that I didn't keep great notes on what I flashed but hey - once you start flashing - it is just so easy to try another one.*
Anyway - Several of the ROM's said they were for the AP6255 chipset and ALL of the ROM's do the same thing where the WiFi just won't turn on.*
Now I am not an expert on this - so I don't know:
Can you confirm - Is this a Sunvell?
Is the wifi chipset an AP6255?
What else should I try?* I wandered into a T95U ROM... should I wander further and look for Beelink or other manuf ROM's that show the AP6255?
Is there any other tool or APK that can be flashed after ROM install to query the hardware config or add chipset support?
Open to ideas.*
Thanks!

The problem is that flashing multiple ROM's can sometimes leave remnants behind and mess things up. Or, you flashed an incompatible ROM that hosed up the EEPROM. The first thing I'd suggest trying, is to go back to square one by flashing the proper stock ROM back on the device again using the USB Flash Tool and be sure to select "Force Erase All" when doing it. I've ran into the same problem on multiple occasions and flashing stock always seems to get me back up and running again.
If that doesn't work, then you'll probably need to crack it open and reset the EEPROM by shorting out the pins in order to get it into a state where it'll overwrite the incorrect code. To do that, make sure the USB Burning tool is running and the USB cable it plugged in so you know when it's been triggered. Then run a paperclip along the pins of the chip until it trips and shows back up in the tool. That will put it into programming mode so you can re-flash the ROM again completely.

Good luck!
Thanks for the reply.
I am downloading the 2G version now. I will try a force flash as suggested.
A couple of questions - when a ROM leaves remnants - what are the other symptoms? I thought that lots of problems appear when the flash is "dirty"?
Anyway - I will flash this version when Mega lets me finish the download.
If I have to move on to step two and short the eeprom - which chip in my pictures is that?
Thanks again!

Okay - well force flashed the referenced ROM and even another "Factory" ROM supposedly for the 6255 wifi chipset. No go.
They both still work it seems fine - but no wifi.
So any hints on reseting the EEPROM?
Thanks again,

Very strange. It almost sounds like your WiFi radio is malfunctioning. If that's the case, then there's really not much you'll be able to do to fix it unfortunately...
One thing you can do to verify, is to grab a file manager like FX, go into /system/etc/wifi and verify that the 6255 directory exists. If it does, then it's probably just the radio. You'll need to be rooted to do the above though. Also, grab a terminal emulator, 'su -' to root, and run a 'dmesg |grep eth' and 'dmesg |grep wifi' and see what it says. You might be able to figure some stuff out based on the output... Are you 100% sure you have the 6255 radio?
As for the EEPROM, it's pretty dangerous to do that, but if you really want to try, just do what I mentioned earlier. Crack open the device, plug it in to power and the USB, and then run a paperclip along the posts, shorting them out until the device resets and shows back up in the USB burning tool...
Okay - flashed just about as many variations I could find. I tried your trick of looking for a folder inside /system/etc/wifi and did confirm there is a directory labeled 6255 and it has some files in it. I will try to run a couple of grep commands too and post what I find. But I am starting to feel that the actual chip is faulty.
After further thought - I am not really wanting to do a dangerous step to reset an EEPROM when it might turn this from a device without wifi to a device that does nothing.
Still curious - looking at the pictures I posted to begin with - is anyone sure that the chipset is the AP6255? Does this chipset do both the cat5 and wifi networking? Or is there yet another chip that does the cat5 networking? (I know there are better words for this - just can't think of them right now)
Anyway - anyone have any other thoughts? I already explained to my friend that this one looks like a hardwire only device so I am putting it back together.
Thanks again,
You're beating a dead horse thinking some magic ROM you flash will fix it when it's clear the source of the problem is the common denominator of wifi being hosed on all of them. Especially since you said you installed roms that supported your AP6255 (as your board pic makes clear) wifi chip where everything else worked except the wifi.
You need to grep for the wifi network errors as AthieN spelled out how to do in his initial reply.

Thanks for the other hint on running the grep command.
I tried and tried to copy this a better way - but short of retyping word for word - a picture was the best I could do.
https://imgur.com/a/oZxojmU
I don't read many reports from a grep command but it is interesting - on one of the lines it reports that "No power on pin 2"
Not sure if it simply is that the chip wasn't soldered in correctly?
Anyway - that is the update. Any thoughts or things to try before I give up are appreciated.

Sorry - didn't read this before my post but don't worry - I am with ya. I had a suspicion from the start. But - there is lots of "Wizardry" in these forums so worth a post.
Thanks everyone.
The good news is that it looks like your kernel isn't finding the right wifi driver on boot which is why it's shutting down. That means there actually might be a ROM version out there that supports your device. But maybe it just doesn't know where to look.
The name of your modular driver is for the AP6255 is dhd.ko.
Try loading it manually from command line as root.
# modprobe dhd
See if you can find dhd.ko in your filesystem somewhere under /lib/modules.
If you can't then try and find a rom that has your wifi driver module on it called dhd.ko.
Update: Just saw there's a more updated qualcomm driver called qca9377.ko so try to load that module or see if the file qca9377.ko exists under /lib/modules.
# modprobe qca9377

Okay - well good news bad news?
I tried to load each of those other drivers
Code:
# modprobe qca9377
modprobe: can't change directory to '/system/lib/modules': No such file or directory
# modprobe dhd
modprobe: can't change directory to '/system/lib/modules': No such file or directory
Now I need to find some other rom that has those drivers?
Or can I just find those files and place them in that file directory? Anywhere I can just get the driver?
Thanks again,
Okay - newest update
I searched and there was no folder named 'modules' in system/lib
So I created that folder and I copied dhd.ko into that folder. (I searched for the newer qca9377 but i couldn't find it)
Now if I type modprobe dhd in terminal as su I get
Code:
#modprobe dhd
modprobe: can't open 'modules.dep': No such file or directory
Oh and - newest wrinkle - somehow I installed something that pops a durex condom ad ontop of everything about every 45 seconds. What is the easy way to find the offending apk? I tried to long click so I could find the properties or something but nothing working. The only thing open is this terminal emulator??
Anyway- that is the latest.
Thanks again,
i have the same issue did you ever resolve?
me too, anyone resolve it?
