It's just a problem of the ROM you're coming from before flashing taboonay ..

If you'v read a few posts before posting you probably had noticed that 2.0 Taboonay ROM is for both A500 and A501, when installing it checks the build.prop to determine on which tablet it is.

THe primee ROM may have an incorrect build.prop so Taboonay could not determine the ACER model.

Or you format/wipe /system before flashing.

A solution is to flash Tabonay 1.1 and then 2.0 or to modify build.prop so Taboonay can use it properly.

And yes taboonay worth a try, sure you'll stick with it ;-) You may try Thor kernel with it. Great couple.
[Acer Iconia A500] vanisleguy1976:
The ROM is solid! If you were using a different port (something from Asus or Galaxy, etc) you'll have to flash an earlier version of taboonay before upgrading to 2.0, otherwise the ROM will 'think' you don't have an Acer. Have a look at the last few pages of this thread! It's all been explained :D

If your zip file is not corrupted, if the zip file name is ok, and if you copied it at the root of your external sdcard .. I don't have anymore idea.

Which release of CWM are you using ? the last one is 1.4.2. (If a new release has not come while I'm typing lol)

Maybe the great THOR can help you as He released the A500 version of CWM for our great pleasure :D
[Acer Iconia A500] CSeb95:
Oups ... sorry. You made it precise and short ;-)

Next time warn me :D I'll take care lol

In this moment I download my firend´s uploaded file and mybe it´s loook good work.

That´s a problem to not receive a file on during flashing. Now it looks to good way.

Thanks for your time to help me.
[Acer Iconia A500] CSeb95:
My pleasure ;-) Hit the thanks button :o

Ah ah, the zip file was corrupted ;-)

never had problem downloading from vache's site ...

Hope you'll get rid of this and make it work !
[Acer Iconia A500] HtcHD2maniaC:
Okay, now...we have to same problem after our tests, same error with Instalation aborted(bad), check Md5, which is the same as in start of post to downloading.

[Acer Iconia A500] mayhem1983:
Nevermind had to update flash app sorry
[Acer Iconia A500] CSeb95:
I suppose you checked the zip file on your computer. Maybe your Sd card is faulty and the file get corrupted while copying it to the SD card? Can you check that ?
[Acer Iconia A500] HtcHD2maniaC:
After downloading i check a value

4be73f15f0361bf67e51e6783ae84e8f *Taboonay-1.1.zip

After copying on SD card:

4be73f15f0361bf67e51e6783ae84e8f *Taboonay-1.1.zip.
[Acer Iconia A500] CSeb95:
When you open the zip file with a zip manager, can you see the content ? can you extract files ?

Which release of CWM do you have ?

Can someone give us the MD5 for Taboonay 1.1 full ? I only have the update version. Thanks.
[Acer Iconia A500] HtcHD2maniaC:

I flashed thor's Transformer Revolver Port 2.5 from Taboonay 2.0, and it worked fine. Now when I try to go back to Taboonay, the flashing completes without any error, but when I turn on the tablet it shows the acer logo and then a blank screen, and stays stuck there with periodic vibrations. Any advice? I even downloaded the Taboonay 2.0 package again but same result.

Please help

I flashed this last night but had to revert back to Dexter's ROM. For some reason Taboonay was very slow. Any ideas?. Would love to be able to use it as my daily.
[Acer Iconia A500] shadeslayor:
ad hoc

i can confirm that changing the wpa file added adhoc, im using it presently. although i thought this rom was supposed to have it added? says on first page.

Anyone having wifi drop outs? With default kernel and also with both thor and richard kernel, every 10 to 20 min. Wifi will drop then reconnect in about 10 seconds.

Edit: ok wifi dropped and did not reconnect this time. Went to wifi settings and my router was listed as disabled. Had to manually re-connect.
[Acer Iconia A500] trevoryour:
Ah that would explain it. Yeah my bad for not reading the 115 pages of posts before posting. I read a few posts before mine and it looked like they were referring to 1.1 and the date of the ROM that was posted looked like it was posted on the 2nd of September which was yesterday (the same date I posted). I thought maybe I was the first one to try it or something.

It would probobly be more helpful if they started new posts for new versions instead of just updating the post for the old version. It might keep these threads to a reasonable size and it would keep people from reading a few hundred posts about issues that have already been fixed.

Anyway, thanks for the answer. I'll go d/l 1.1 and flash that first. Thanks again.
[Acer Iconia A500] gmfeny:
Yea I seen that few people have this problem including myself. I also noticed this on lightspeed 3.2 ROM. I haven't seen a fix for it. So after a week of running this I might have to go back to 3.1
[Acer Iconia A500] ziggy34:
Yeah, may have to restore my stock 3.1 as well.

Vache, are there any logs that may help?

On a side note when I try to save logs with your Tobootools, it says it is saving the log to /mnt/sdcard/tob?????(something directory), but when I look after there is no folder or logs.
[Acer Iconia A500] vanisleguy1976:
Two things that I've noticed since upgrading to 2.0:

First, if I plug a usb thumb drive in, I can't find it any more. I used to be able to find it in my /mnt directory, but now nothing shows up there for the usb. I've also looked for it in drive mount, but it doesn't show up there either.

Also, my wireless usb keyboard no longer works.

Has anyone else had these issues?

*edit: reverted to old taboonay, and keyboard & thumbdrive are working. Is there a setting I'm missing here?

i cannot get rid of the 'Please insert sim card'.

i have tried taboonay as well as honeyvillain and i have added the ro.carrier=wifi-only but the message still comes and cell standby uses quite a lot of the battery

some suggestions pls
[Acer Iconia A500] gmfeny:
,

Install taboonay 1.1 reboot then install 2.0
[Acer Iconia A500] CSeb95:
I stucked with this problem using 2.0 with default kernel, switching to Thor kernel solve it for me.
[Acer Iconia A500] CSeb95:
Hi,

No problem for me with usb thumb drives either FAT ou NTFS, when I plug them in, I get a message in the notification bar "USB storage inserted" and I find it directly in /mnt (for FAT32).

tried a wired USB keyboard and a blutooth one, working well. I don't have wireless usb keyboard.

Hope you'll find why it's not working for you ! That may be kernel related as it is probably drivers related ;-)

I recently flashed this ROM (as in, yesterday-recently) and as of this morning, the tablet will not connect to my home wireless.

It's not an issue with the wireless router, as my phone is not having any problem connecting to it.

If I create a wifi hot-spot via my phone, the tablet can connect to that.

I've just flashed the HoneyVillain kernel as it said that there was a Wifi fix in it. But I'm still not able to connect to the home wireless. :(

What is my next troubleshooting step?
[Acer Iconia A500] christianpeso:
Try Thors' kernel.

Just got a 32gb iconia from craigslist for $275usd. Been reading about the iconia for a while now so pretty much knew what I was going to do with it when I got it. I had a xoom a while back and loved it. But then sold it.

Rooted, installed newest CWM from Thors website, flashed Taboonay 2.0, flashed Thors latest kernel. This tablet is VERY nice! Running smooth. No problems so far. Will test Ad-Hoc network tomorrow as I have the OG droid and I will need to be able to teather it to my tablet.

Thanx to all in involved in making this happen!!

i'm having some kind of touble and i think i'm missing something

i got it used and it was working pretty well, already rooted, already installed CWM recovery (from market with acer tool), now i decided to try taboonay, well i flashed it, flasehd the kernel, it appears not to be booting, black screen it is. So i tried wiping everything again and re-flashing just the ROM, still black screen (i thought it could have been a kernel issue)

i got A500 16GB

any help?

[Acer Iconia A500] ziggy34:
Had it happen a couple times, when I would hit the power button, the screen would come on, but touch screen would not respond. Hit power button to turn screen off then again to turn back on and all would be fine.
[Acer Iconia A500] johnteh15:
My screen usually won't turn back on. The first long press of power usually won't boot up and I guess this is probably because it is forcing the device to switch off and the second long press only will bring the device up. This is very annoying. It happens almost 9 times out of10 times when I put on standby. Is this hardware failure? :(
[Acer Iconia A500] CSeb95:
I have same behaviour somme time, I would say 1 time out of 10 ;-)

But it happens to me too.
[Acer Iconia A500] dscribe:
I haven't had the sticking problem yet, nor the wifi drop but I will say that based on my admittedly poor and anecdotal experience with ROMs on multiple phones and tablets, a large part of the time when really goofy bugs show up while there are others not having the same bugs, it is because of vestiges of previous ROMs remaining behind when a ROM gets flashed because something of the previous ROM and/or its data somehow didn't get wiped completely. Just my 2 cents (which ain't worth much, especially these days).

Had this tab and this rom for about 48 hours now. Here is a couple things I noticed.

Acer Iconia a500 32gb running Taboonay 2.0 with Thor kernel 2.1

-When I press power button to turn on while it is in sleep mode, it takes about 2-3 seconds for the screen to come on. After that everything works fine.

-My overclock does not hold. I started with No-Frills CPU. WHen I set the speed to 1.6ghz max and 456mz min, it does change it. Then about 20 minutes later, maybe after the tablet has went to sleep maybe 1 or 2 times, when I checked no frills again, it was right back to stock.

Though it was the app. Switched to Setcpu and same thing. After about 15-20 minutes, the speed goes back to the default settings. It does not hold what I want it to.

Other than those 2 things, everything has been running super smooth. Flash drives mount without any problems. Wireless Microsoft mouse works without issues. Not really any force closes except for a couple from Yahoo Mail.

I just tried to plug in my 1tb Seagate external HDD via USB, it did not recognize it. I hit the "drivemount" app thinking that it would something, but it did not. Using ES File Explorer. Drive is formatted NTFS.

Thanks again to everyone involved this specific ROM and kernel and Android in general!
[Acer Iconia A500] ibsk8:
If you want to fix both those issues you need to adjust the uv/oc settings in the taboonay tools app.

The problem youre having with the wake lag is the screen off state is at its lowest setting.

The overclock issue youre having is there is a conflict between taboonay tools and your uv/oc app of your choosing.
[Acer Iconia A500] qwertylesh:
Iconia noob q here (sorry i know this is a dev thread)

I went from Stock 3.1 to Tab 2.0 and got that insert sim lock screen common prob.

now I tried flashing Tab 1.1 zip and then 2.0 over but still got it.

do i need to wipe everything then flash Tab 1.0 then 1.1 then reboot then flash 2.0 or just wipe flash 1.1 then 2.0.

the 1.1 package seems to be abnormally tiny. hence the question.

cheers.

edit: nvm, found 1.1 FULL, i'm such a nub, ignore me :)
[Acer Iconia A500] christianpeso:
Thanx soo much my friend! This in combination with a restart fixed both of those issues.

Also, for some reason, I can not get any twitter app to run properly. I have Tweetcomb and Plume installed and when I open either one, they cant connect to Twitters server. Both say to check date/time, timezone, and am/pm settings and then the only option is to exit. Any ideas as to why?
[Acer Iconia A500] dscribe:
Just found the thing to do the trick. (removed link here due to better solution in rom)

UPDATE: Went back and tried Drive Mount program that comes with the ROM again. It does work if you work it right. :P

1. plug in drive

2. open drive mount app

3. notice your drive listed as unmounted

4. hit the mount drive icon in the upper right

5. notice your drive listed as mounted
[Acer Iconia A500] qwertylesh:
Ok so i flashed 1.1, rebooted, did initial setup, went back to CWM, flashed 2.0, rebooted. Still get Sim on Lock screen.

can someone tell me if ive done something wrong? supposed to apply the zips in succession or something :confused::confused:
[Acer Iconia A500] christianpeso:
When I open up drivemount after I plug in my Ext.Hdd, it is not listed. Nothing is there. Just a blank space and "Drive Mount" Listed in the upper left hand corner. Just had it force close on me also.
[Acer Iconia A500] Athrun88:
All i did when that happened to me was to open up the Taboonay Tools app and there's a setting to change that. Will double check though.

you're right!! rebooting now to see.

haha i spent half the day reformatting and stuff for nothing :D :o

--

tried both now.

Insert Sim just wont go away, hot reboot or full, tried both options a bunch of times. :(

the wifi only one deosnt show (no service) in the tray of the lockscreen but thats the only difference. might need to get that paid app to correct this on mine >_<

edit: ok i think i know the problem, im using richardtrips 3.2 kernel, instead of 3.0, seems that theres others in the thread noticing the same thing happening on 3.2, ill probably downgrade if im not happy with teh battery otherwise just wait for an update. :)

ok strange problem. When I download the zip it shows "xxx.zip;" if you delete the ; (rename the file) it obviously won't flash....

Any ideas?

Mahalo:confused:
[Acer Iconia A500] v_lestat:
Youcan rename the file anything you want, the file name doesnt effect anything.

But that semi-colon you got there is strange.

So you are saying if you remove the semi colon and are left with xxx.zip it wont flash?

The file itself is corrupt if that is true. And rename or not it will never flash.

When u download it on your pc, and you are presented with the name of the file you want to save, rename it then and save it in a different location.

Also clear your browser cache. Otherwise it may just keep corrupting the file.

[Acer Iconia A500] CSeb95:
Downloading directly from Vache's site from the A500 and having a ";" is a well known issue.

Just remove the ";" at the end of the file and you should be able to flash it as a standard zip file using Recovery "install zip from sdcard" (zip must be at the root of the external sdcard).

What do you mean by "It obviously don't flash" in your previous post ?
[Acer Iconia A500] CSeb95:
That seems to be an issue with 2.0, Vache must have forgotten to add the richardtrip patch for ad-hoc.

Some people took the wpa_suplicant file from honeyvillian's rom and replaced it with the one in this rom.

Seems to be working ;-)
