Your configuration seems to be okay. Can you check that the ta.key file is 
actually correct? From the error messages it sounds that the file is empty.

I think this is similar to the problme the Huawei Tablet has. It ships with a 
tun module but does not load the tun module on boot.  I fear your only option 
is to root the device and use load tun option under general settings.
