Is anyone else having issues? Am I doing something wrong, or is it just not going to work?
I have been thru the entire VeganGB devel thread, and searched multiple times for flash issues, but have seen nothing addressing any problem with adobe flash.
Dan
after installing vegantab ginger i went to
http://www.viewsonic.com/gtablet/favorite.htm
downloaded adobe flash player
and rebooted my device.
flash has worked since.
Originally after loading vegantab ginger I tried to download flash from the market and reboot and it didnt work...
thanks!
why didn't I think of that? sitting here now watching BSG. I appreciate it!
Great! glad that helped you, I didnt understand why it wasnt working at first either...i have been hesitant to update to 10.3 from the market but im sure it will still work fine.

How can I tell if flash is working? Tried playing a video on facebook. Did not work. I running nero v3 . Is there a site to go to try it out?
Im running nero v2 and i havent streamed any flash video. But I have gone to sites that have flash ads and it works.
Fear the beard...
This may sound incredibly lame, but try going to the market and searching for "Flash".
This should show you a few things. First you should see that Flash Player 10.1 is installed, if it is and you want to verify, download "Adobe Flash Showcase"
It's a free download that highlights sites with videos and games made for Flash 10.1 and it will only work if your phone has it installed.
After you're done and you've verified whether it's working or not you can simply delete the showcase if you don't want it.
I downloaded the files from the thread in the development forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=951822. I tried doing the steps listed in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=865245 and could not get it to work. When I rebooted the Gtab, it would just hang at the Viewsonic bird screen for about 15-20 minutes. I tried a few times and the same thing happens each time. I then used the stock 3588.zip to go back to the stock rom and the Gtab booted fine. I have since followed the online video to install tnt lite 4.2 and I substituted in 4.4 but I was successful in making this work and the Gtab booted just fine into TNT lite 4.4. Can anyone explain to me why I am having problems with Vegan tab? Or at least maybe someone could walk me through the steps..
Thanks!

Yup same thing happened to me. Vegan 5.1x works and none of the gingerbread ones.
I repartitioned 2048/0
Reformat tool
reinstalled stock
Did above without reinstalling stock
My original tab works great for the gingerbread roms, while the woot batch does not. (have had 2 cross my desk so far, we bought a lot of them for work purposes)
It's not horrible because vegan 5.1.1 works and that is fine.
Asop (both variants) don't work
vegan gingerbread experimental doesn't work
CM7 RC 3 + RC4
they all hang during the viewsonic birds screen.
The only thing I have not tried, is not using the update method for installing CW .8 bekit, but trying the old nvflash method instead.
So I may break that out and give it a whirl in a bit... But this one has me baffled. Prolly need someone with higher android IQ

Thanks for the response. I talked with my brother who also bought from the woot sale just like myself and you and he successfully put the vegan gingeredition experimental on his. He was walking me through it the way he did it and it hung for me at the viewsonic screen but his works just fine... Kind of weird I think. Anyone have any options or instructions for us?
I just installed Vegan-Tab 5.1 beta with the supplement and it worked fine. I am up and running with zero problems. I am still stumped on why the Vegan Tab ginger edition experimental will not work. It just sits at the Viewsonic screen. Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

Well here is another one to add to the mystery.
Networking guy came in just now cause stock was FC on installation screen. So I used the sd card cw install.
Partitioned to get rid of FC
mounted as USB in CW
added rom + kernel + gapps
flashed all 3 of them
Bingo - tablet booted up...
now I am really scratching my head.
Tried gingerbread asop + gapps + pershot booted the first try.....
So 2 tablets no gingerbread love 3rd tablet installed perfectly the first time.
I got one of the woot batch and am running the vegan experimental without an issue.
Actually, one issue I've found is that once i activated airplane mode it greys out the option so you can't turn it off. I can go into settings and enable the wireless, but the airplane icon becomes a permanent fixture in the notification bar.

Im pretty sure its the bootloader at this point. Need to update to 3588 (first before putting on CW .8) I'm thinking that the gingerbread roms just don't run on 33xx though they work perfectly on the original bootloader.
Will see if I can find a volunteer today to test this on (been just pushing 5.1.1 since it worked on all the tablets).
I think Roebeet has a package that updates to 3588s bootloader so will give that a whirl today.

What kernel are you using?

I have had the same issue. Got my GTab from woot installed Vegan 5.1.1 and it is running great. I've tried just about every gingerbread rom and it always hangs up on the viewsonic screen.
I did find this post but haven't tried it yet. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1015286&page=2

after much experimentation, It's the internal cw package. If you use the sd card method or use NV flash gingerbread installs just fine.
*shrug*
No I have no Idea why either....

Hello, Have G tab with vegan 2.2 on it.
Tried honeycomb and never came out of boot up.
Went back and restored to paste vegan tab rom and everything was good but market. Tried market fix numerous times. Reloaded romserveral times market fixes. Still market will not update present apps or download new free ones even.
what it does do..
when you start to download if flashes downloading
then it flashes downloading paused.
then downloading failed and stops all together.
any thoughts or fix?
tablet details:
Vegan tab -v1.0.0b5.1
android version 2.2
kernal 2.632,9-dirty [email protected]#6

I think we'd have a better chance at helping you if you make a little more sense. Tried honeycomb? Vegan 2.2?
I highly recommend calkulin's rom. Market comes fully fixed for you.
history
Had vegan tab running good with working market.
Tried going ti vegan honeycomb.
Never came out of boot up 20 minutes.
Went back and loaded vagen 5.1 stable works but now with market issue.
Using cwr for installs.
Did marketfix several times all apps display
When you download it goes downloading
Downloading paused
Downloding
Then stops without any action like download complete itjust stops.
This is with purschased app or free ones.
Thanks layback

Corrected version above....
I would post this in the dev forum, but it won't let me
I was running Task650's KME ROM and I went to install the pershoot kernel. I noticed after I installed that, I could not get anything to install from the market. I am not sure if it happened before the kernel switch or not. I flashed over to Starburst, and I am still having the problem.
I read that it was related to Google Talk for quite a few people so I went to make sure I could log in there, and I can't. I tried re-rooting, and that didn't help. I can't find much more that I should try.

Weird.... I installed Blazar and it works now. Went back to Task650 and reinstalled pershoot, and it STILL works. Not sure what fixed it.
Probably a n00b mistake, but I just installed ExROM 2.0 after I had bionix 1.3.1 and my gps is seeing 12 satellites, but won't lock onto any of them. Checking with GPS Test app. It looks like other people report gps works great. Any thoughts on what I messed up or what I could do to fix this? Do I need to reinstall or something? I did choose wipe everything in clockwork before I installed this. Thanks.

If I was in your situation, I would first re-flash the ROM, then if that doesn't work, flash the latest SubZero kernel, and then if that doesnt work, go back to stock, flash bionix and test it to see if GPS is software destroyed (like mine was b4, tried every possible solution, nothing, so i waited for a few weeks, didnt touch GPS at all, and then one day, YAY it works again. Sounds like complete BS, but im not kidding). If GPS works again on Bionix, try going to another ICS rom (such as CM9 (it tells you steps and stuff too) or ICSzenwich from rootzwiki.) and then follow the steps from EXrom page. ^.^ Good Luck!
Thanks for the input. I just installed it again exactly as I did the first time and I'm getting gps data now. Weird. Thanks again.
