I should clarify. I get license error trying to launch the Asus bundled version, but I purchased Splashtop HD from the market pre-Asus rom. Launching market version FCs.

anyone else having issues with browser tabs closing when screen goes to sleep?

I would also find this useful, and i don't see dolby in there either, has that been abandoned?
[Acer Iconia A500] anstelios:
can someone tell us how's multimedia support in acer vs asus ROM ??
[Acer Iconia A500] shingers5:
Read 1st post for oc daemon as its new and dont need 3rd party app. Built into custom kernel apparently
[Acer Iconia A500] minotauri:
ps3 controller support is missing. can you add that? (or is it just me?)
[Acer Iconia A500] :
GTalk still not working on Asus or Acer 1.8. Have yet to find one except stock OS that does. Everything else works great though. Great job!! :D
[Acer Iconia A500] minotauri:
works for me.
[Acer Iconia A500] frozsty:
It doesn't work for me either. Text chat works fine, but video and voice do not. Neither the Asus one nor the Acer one worked, except the stock rom worked fine. Any help on this appreciated. Kinda annoying, as it worked fine on stock..was getting this problem on PRIMEE too..shame.
[Acer Iconia A500] endrsothershadow:
Read it. Got root explorer. Found the six files. Found available frequencies and governors... got scared. From here is where i need the guide if possible, i.e. what each governor means exactly and do you change the min max values all tye time or ony when its a user specified governor?

Also +1 ps3 controller didnt realizr that wasnt in there. i love that the new kernel is stable though!
[Acer Iconia A500] WishRyder:
Works for me on all versions of all Prime and Virtuous roms.
[Acer Iconia A500] frozsty:
Are you talking text chat or video chat? Text chat works fine, but video doesn't at all.

EDIT: Found the reason why. I wasn't using a gmail account, but when I tried my gmail account (out of lack of anything else to try) it worked fine. Weird because I didn't need a gmail account for the stock rom (so I didn't think it would make a difference. Go figure it did..), but that's fine as long as it works.

@kjy2010, try this, too. Should work for you, as our problem seems similar.

Great ROM, brother. Excited to see what's to come in the future.

Anyone else has the problem that "System Update" force closes in this 1.0.8 version? I know we don't need it for awhile, but even so, I dont like FC-apps., even if they are not really necessary.
[Acer Iconia A500] jabbermacy:
Thanks for the great work, still running 1.0.6 but I can really tell the difference already, seems NO slowdown in screen vs. the old 3.0.1.

My ONLY gripe is that I wish there was a way to restore apps without spending the whole day; do you guys know if Titanium is effective at doing this? Though every reflash it DOES know the history of what's been backed-up, just wondering if 1) this works reliably and 2) if there's a better way!

THANKS THANKS THANKS!!!!

Just flashed the ASUS rom and at first i was thrilled. Love the keyboard, shortcut keys all in all its lovely, but i cant make my ps3 controller workwhich isa big reason to use the asus rom i thought... do you have to enable it in the menu somewhere? Also its silly but i dont like having the rotation lock do othing. Decisions decisions...

[Acer Iconia A500] djpopn:
Just installed the Acer ROM and I am really digging it, however I'm having a little bit of trouble with a few very important tasks.. most importantly Splashtop force closing instantly on launch as well as some problems getting a ps3 controller paired up properly.. is there any way to fix either of these on my own? Remote desktop and gaming are the two biggest reasons for having this thing >.<

Re asus rom: no random reboot while asleep if wifi is switched off.
[Acer Iconia A500] chr0m:
How well does this work when jumping from Acer based to Asus based. Also how do I get to keep my home screen layout? I gave up on spending hours organising my screens because I'd lose them all every time I flashed a new rom, which is daily.

I tried restoring some settings from Acer to Asus and got FCs.

Does the CWM backup and restore work? I thought I would just do a full backup with CWM and a full restore if I wanted to go back. I'm just concerned about all those extra partitions it backs up like recovery and boot and if I need to restore those too.

Ah! Now i know why i never had reboots in sleep mode. :D

Switched it to "Never switch off". First thing I'd got my hands on the device...

***attention, the following seems to be off topic***

For Titanium:

- make a full backup of system/user app and data (batch)

- flash new rom

- restore all missing user apps (batch, if you have registration, otherwise every app manually)

- filter app list for system apps

- restore the green ones with data only (!)

- enjoy

A decent reader of pdf?

I have a question, but there is a software that read a pdf with fast rendering of page on zoom pitch and navigation of the pages?

A good software is zinio but you cant import pdf file....

The others in this roms Limiread is toooooo bad slow and smooth in pdf read, Asus reader best of acer but the rendering of the pages when i zoom is high.

I test with a overclock of 1.5 Ghz but is slow always.

Why in android there isn's a software that read a pdf fast as ipad2 ?

it's incredible.

[Acer Iconia A500] thk38:
Very frustrated myself too. So far I think viewing pdf file in "Landscape" mode is the best (cause "portrait" mode seem to have problem with text rendering).

Adobe pdf reader and ASUS reader win my heart so far. Anyone try ezPDF????
[Acer Iconia A500] Quasarnova:
I have buy ezpdf nice of render and pitch zoom but navigation into the pages is very very very very very slow. The passage from a page to another 7-8 sec.

I have tested repligo time ago but was slow to render new pages. I can re-test with 3.1 Honeycomb.

Asus reader very fine but render when zoom is slow. It's incredible that a tablet whit this specification take difficulty to read a simple pdf.
[Acer Iconia A500] anvandarnamn:

I'm using the asus one though...

Didn't have a single random reboot with 1.07.. :confused:

[Acer Iconia A500] Juzman:
I've tried the ASUS and ACER rom and I've stuck with the Acer one. I do miss the screenshot option by holding down recent apps icon and the reboot option when holding down the power button that the ASUS rom has. Is there anyway to implement that into the Acer one?

Also for the life of me I can't get my email account setup on it even though it was working prior to installing custom rom (get message about not able to connect to outgoing server or invalid user/pass even though it works for incoming when setting it up).
[Acer Iconia A500] ardatdat:
First of all, the OC kernel (for acer) cannot be used in Acer based 3.1 ROM, so, maybe you can adjust the OP to warn user not to flash this to acer based 3.1 rom.

Secondly, I see in the updater-script you call itsmagic which should be included in the .zip file. But in the file, I cannot see itsmagic, maybe there is a fix? Thanks. :)

[Acer Iconia A500] jcrabapple:
Only problem I'm having with the Acer based 1.0.8 rom is the browser randomly shuts down with no warning. Never happened on 1.0.6. It's not Flash related because I don't have it installed. Anybody else having this issue? I'm considering going back to stock or 1.0.6 until these custom roms are less buggy. VP is coming along nicely though.
[Acer Iconia A500] WishRyder:
And by "different class", you mean special ed, right? :D

I kid, but I was really underwhelmed with the "feature set" of my friend's Xoom, plus it just felt awkward in my hands.

Back on topic, just a heads up to those having problems:

I was having market issues and getting tons of random reboots in idle mode on 1.0.8 after a full wipe and full Titanium restore (white, red, green) of my 1.0.4 backup.

Did another full wipe and clean install of 1.0.8, restored only apps and settings through Titanium (white and green) - no random reboots since then and market working fine.
[Acer Iconia A500] fraghead5:
I have a full wipe fresh install of acer 1.0.8 and have had a ton of random reboots, all from idle and I dont use this tablet all that much so its not as big of a deal for me but could see it being a deal breaker for some.
[Acer Iconia A500] ardatdat:
What rom you are using? Can you use the kernel with the 'leaked' stock 3.1 ROM? Thanks.
[Acer Iconia A500] kramersmash:
First off I love this Rom. The 1.0.8 runs 10x better then 1.0.6.

fyi issue I'm getting random reboots in sleep, with wifi set to never turn off.

But my main question is will we see PS3 controller support soon with your Rom?
[Acer Iconia A500] mrbig012:
Insane amount of reboots 1.0.8... 10+ in 10 minutes. (Turned WiFi off completely, and it stopped, but that's a hassle :cool: )

Any fix for this besides waiting for next build / flashing back?

Thanks!

[Acer Iconia A500] Fumetsu:
File Manager actually moved it, but checksum doesnt check out. Any other tips? :( Could it be my SD card itself?

EDIT: disregard, it was my SD Card - I swapped the one from my EVO in and it checked out OK. Installing now.

Thanks for all the help guys! Can't wait for this to flash! :)
[Acer Iconia A500] Fumetsu:
Got it up and running, and boy is it fast.

To answer a couple questions I saw earlier - no, the rotation lock does not work. I read on another thread that the ASUS firmware does not support it. There is an option to enable/disable auto rotation, however, which works just the same, only on the software side.

I believe I see Arabic as an option in languages but as I don't read Arabic I can't tell if that's what it says or not. :) If you can show me what "arabic" looks like written in arabic I can verify.

Going to play around with it. Thanks again to everyone for your help. Definitely going to be donating to the awesome devs here.

In Thor's recovery it shows the /external_sd as just /sdcard, even though it is not internal storage, it's the external SD.

Hi, m-deejay

1. first of all, i don't like WP7 font. In some apps, the Chinese words are very ugly. How to change to the Asus original?

2. the ad-hoc wifi for tethering to my smartphone not work, i need to following the thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1069569 to fix it.

3. the 3G connection not work for my Huawei E169u, i can only see /dev/block/sr0, /dev/block/sda (even not work for usb storage), no see /dev/ttyUSB0~3 for ppp.
[Acer Iconia A500] fenixjn:
Nice rom. Feels overall faster when compared to stock. the keyboard seems to have issues with the backspace key seems to behave more like the del key instead. Only happens in stock browser, the rest of the apps recognize the proper key.
[Acer Iconia A500] erikod:
HDMI Output not working

Hi everybody,

Installed this ROM yesterday and feels very good. A lot more stable and faster then the original stock. Tried a lot of features and installed a lot of apps, it all seems to work fine. However there are 2 things I noticed that didn't work anymore:

1. Docking isn't recognized anymore. I assume this is cause of the ASUS rom, but it's no big deal.

2. HDMI output isn't working anymore, and that's kind of a big deal, cause I can't use it on my TV anymore and no more audio over my receiver :-(

I hope this can be fixed in a feature release...so keep up the good work!

Gr. Erik
[Acer Iconia A500] Fumetsu:
I seem to be getting a lot of battery drain from Cell Standby. On stock, I was using an app called Acer Iconia Phone Disabler to disable the Phone.apk and TelephonyProvider.apk. I still have the app and re-ran it, but I'm still getting Cell Standby drain. Whatever happened with the port from ASUS seems to have prevented this app from being able to disable those services. Any fix?

i'm using the picasso 1.08 acer build ROM. I have had wifi turned on since i flashed it and have yet to have a reboot. I may be the lucky one here, no idea, but with the acer 1.08 picasso build i have 0 issues with the ROM itself. Ps3 controller would be a nice add on to the kernel, but not a deal breaker imo.

If you are having issues with the kernel on a different ROM i would suggest posting the issues in the kernel thread. This is the picasso ROM thread and from i see everything works great on it.
[Acer Iconia A500] Hogmeister:
same experience here, no issues thus far, been dilly dallying with it since i flash .8... nothing as far as problems i've run across, not even browser crashing ;)

of course, as you said ps3 controller support would be cool, but for now i do have a different gamepad that works just fine
