ASUS G1S OLED display - I have found a way to set it :)

Don't rush Predator, you've done a great job already hehe everyone's so demanding because of that, take your time

 

hey guys,

im having trouble adding/importing a new script(5482741's 12hr clock one) i can import it fine, but then i loose functionality of the hotkeys. i followed directions and added the script as a menu and added a keycheck call at the bottom of his script. However i cannot select it from the menu nor can i cycle thru and eventually unless i refresh the initializing script i loose all functionality of the hotkeys. not sure whats going on here...

btw predator you are awesome

Edit: thanks predator, it was easy as making sure the scripts were in order.

 

When you add new screen to the megascript, ensure the order that is placed in the LCDHype script is the same as the order in the menulist (in the Init menu).
Also, when you do add any new screens to the megascript, you have to re-init the whole script (starting it from Init screen), so the global variables in it get the new values.

 

i dont know if anyone else is having this problem but when i load the scripts i get a 'picture'. like nothing moves and nothing seems to work, it seems to be like a 'picture' . I downloaded the sheep script and it basically just sits there it doesnt move, time doesnt move and the second hand doesnt move. am i missing something??

 

*** sorry, spoke too soon. it is now working but i have a 0mb up and 0mb down for any of the network information ones.***

 

Hey Predator_MF, any progress on the new script? I'm really looking forward to it =]

 

Does this LCDHype also work on the G2S oled as well?

 

Yeah, it works on G2S too

Sorry for delaying you guys so long, I have really huge trouble finishing very hard project of mine..

 

Loaded this bad boy up hoping it would fix my lcd failure, On load I get "No port driver found"

Which From my understanding i need the asus driver for this thing, can anyone lead me to the stock asus driver for the oled. everytime i google it i just find a linux one

 

No you don't need any other drivers. This error comes out when you try to use LCD that's connected to LPT port, which needs a special driver for Windows XP and Vista (because Windows forbids direct control to the LPT). Make sure you have selected the Asus OLED driver from LCDHype settings.

If you still recieve this error, delete all drivers from LCDHype\controller folder, leave only "Preview" driver and Asus OLED driver.

 

Driver status:
Searching LCD device path...
No LCD Module found.

anywho, im gonna blow out and everything and redownload and start from scratch

Also can someone with a fully working asus g1s or g2s whatever with lights and oled working to spec in vista, goto device manager, and screen shot your USB tree for me. I have one unknown device i get the feeling its the oled. Just need a rough idea of what to look for..

 

Hmm...it seems it's the LCD module driver missing. The OLED board is actually a USB HID device, so it doesn't require any additional drivers to those present on XP SP2 and later. The HID driver is generic

In the Device Manager, you should see the LCD module as " HID-compilant consumer control device", do you have this device installed ?

Edit: BTW, are you running XP SP2 ?

 

no its windows vista 32 bit, in classic mode ive been having crazy problems getting to the root of this all, and now im even more determined. Hell I even managed to find the connection to the mobo it has today. i dont think i have that device installed

 

On the device manager, click properties of the "Unknown device", go to details page and write here what you see on "Device Instance Id" property

 

Usb\vid_0000&pid_0000\5&15dc0995&0&6

 

I also found 3 Hid consumer control devices

HID\{00001124-0000-1000-8000-00805F9B34FB}_VID&0002045E_PID&0702&COL01\8&B6206AA&0&0000

HID\{00001124-0000-1000-8000-00805F9B34FB}_VID&0002045E_PID&0702&COL03\8&B6206AA&0&0002

HID\IRDEVICE&COL02\2&D6067AB&0&0001

 

This is weird, the first one you mention is somehow unrecognized device (failed to answer enumeration process), the next 3 are Bluetooth and IR devices...

Is Asus DirectConsole working fine with the OLED ?

Also, run Everest, go to USB devices and see in the list if there's a device named
"USB Human Interface Device (LCM)"

 

OK guys i read anything and i am going to get a G1s very soon...2008 Chrisymas at the latest lol. I know you guys are all busy scripting and stuff but would anyone would be kind enough to make a toturial video of everything you need to do (inclding the driver updates, softwares like lcd hype.....) and upload it onto u tube thanks. Rep would be given. Btw with all the links in the video discreption would be mega help.

 

I don't think a video could explain it better, all you need is the latest LCDHype and the Asus OLED driver for LCDHype (which is already included in the latest LCDHype). The rest is scripting, and I wonder if anybody using a computer couldn't write his own

 

no direct console hasnt been working at all, for sometime, and a couple partitions, when i install the program " gives me the message direct console not exsists however the lcd still displays asus.

thats kinda how i stumbled across your thread hoping that lcd hype would work

 

I'm pretty sure it will work, I've written the driver on Vista, then I did a clean XP install and first thing I tested was LCDHype, and it worked from the first try.

Try updating the driver of the "Unknown device" you see there, it should be recognized as HID compilant device....anyway, it should return proper values for VID/PID (the device instance id I asked you to send me earlier)...
Usb\vid_0000&pid_0000\5&15dc0995&0&6
here vid_0000 and pid_0000 means the device doesn't respond to enumeration, which happens if it's broken...

BUT there's a big chance your USB hub to not recognize the device properly (which happened with my MP4 player first few times I plugged it in my ASUS)....so, the only thing I guess you are left to do (if you really wanna use your OLED) is to make a clean install of Vista or XP

 

now just out of blatent curiousity, could the bios also be causing this? Im running 212 right now, was running 300 maybe go back in time even farther? This has been my second or third new partition without it working. If it aint the bios, maybe ill just have to slap in the original memory and hardrive and take it to the store for fixing under warrenty work

 

It shouldn't be BIOS causing this, I'm more to thing it's the OS.
I wonder, have you opened the laptop or try to do any maintance that could be related to the OLED malfunction ?

 

ive replaced the ram and the harddrive. but then again i have been meaning to crack it wide open, but the malfunction goes fairly far back in time, before i did any of that, i have also recently disconnected the oled and plugged it back in, still works just no proper driver for it

 

well thanks for all your support predator I just used my original parts, and did another fresh install, the first one i have ever done from the harddrive hidden partition, and lets just say, still no luck. Im getting the feeling that this is a hardware malfunction now. Many factory fresh installs, and still no luck. every road has lead to a dead end.

This computer is gonna go back to the store, and thank god i got the instant product replacement plan, so i wont be without my lappy for more then a week

 

Here's a script that a friend named " cbap" just handed over me, it looks even better than mine...

You can download it from here: link



Pretty cool script, indeed, thanks cbap!

 

omg that is sexy and just in time for my new actually working oled

 

Congratulations about your brand new old laptop

 

lol, yeah had i actually waited a little bit longer to take it in, i would of got an upgrade i got the last one on the shelf... heres hoping it happens again.

However just updated my desktop, e84000 4 gigs of ram 2x gf9600s i guess i should see how your little program works on my g15 keyboard

 

Will these scripts also work on the G2 series?

 

Yeah, it will. AFAIK (confirmed by other NBR users) G2 OLED is the same as G1

 

Hi. Those plugins are cool...But i have a big problem. On my LED in EverestPLG the GT, CPU and HD values equals 0! Also dont work winamp plugin! Could anybody knows what is going on? I have Win XP x64.

 

Are your ATK (ACPI) drivers installed properly? To check that use some other software that reads the temps, I'm not sure which of them support X64... Options are RMClock, NHC, Everest.

If those also do not read the temps properly, then the ATK drivers are not (properly) installed.

 

So... HD tune works fine (shows hdd temp). Also siw is working good (core temp and hdd). Even Everest Ultimate works ok.

 

@kojotek, in Everest go to Preferences -> External Applications and put a checkmark on "Enable shared memory", then down in the list, be sure to put checkmarks ONLY on CPU and GPU temperatures. It works on Vista x64 so it should work on XP x64 too

 

Hey men, which version of everest do you use to show hd cpu and gpu temp?I use the v4.50 one, and my display do not shows this temperatures. I have tried predator_MF scripts and cpab's one.

 

You must have your everest plugin (for LCDHype) installed in LCDHype\plugins\everest\everest.dll , else it won't work

 

Predator_MF, any news on the side lights Really looking forward to that one, because that would make my new G1S extra cool

Tnx anyways for all your help

 

everything is cool, thanks for u predator, and for everyone contributing on this project , G1s Rules
Cheers

We wait for MSN instant messages , and it would be perfect!!!

it's perfect already

 

I have a new G1Sn-A1. This is very interesting. It works pretty well. Thanks guys.

 

TODO:

• MSN Plugin
• Skype Plugin
• G-Series Sidelights Plugin
• AIMP Plugin

It will take some time, so patience guyz

 

can't wait to see that sidelight plugin

 

MSN Plugin 0.9 is ready, you can download it from here

One thing to mention, it's written both in C++ and Delphi, there are some warnings in MSDN that it may not be compatible with Windows Vista, so I expect your feedbacks does it work.

 

Thanks Predator =] Can't wait till someone makes a script with this

 

I can't get it to work on my machine. Followed the instructions. In 'status' LCDhype it says 'no port driver found', not sure whats wrong. Any help would be appreciated.

Thnx dudes

 

I guess you have downloaded only 0.6.0.5 update of LCDHype, please download the 0.6 version and then put the files from 0.6.0.5 over 0.6

 

Thnx dude, workin like a charm now. Thnx for the help.

 

#####
ASUS G-Series LED Plugin for LCDHype is ready, you can download it here.

There are two example scripts on the page (also in the archive), the first one is blinking GLED, the second is a GLED that flashes with the bass (when listening Winamp)

You can also control the Mail LED (for example with the email plugin or MSN plugin to show when you have new messages) and the Touchpad LED.

I am getting errors when trying to install LCDhype, I tried the 2 latest versions. I am using a G1S-A1 windows vista 32 bit

 

What errors, which versions?
