Gyroscope axis

Hello there.

I m wondering if sombody else got this trouble.

I m using this rom very happy with it, this week i tried

some games an i noticed that gyroscope is working very not the way it should.

For eaxemple nfs the cars are just turning around and motomx too. the strange thing now

other games doesn t have this trouble.

I tried gyrorotate from market and both axis are inverted not left right but when i turn

screen left its the up axis that turns and right for down etc...

Bluetooth Tether

I have an android phone that doesn't do wifi hosting... I want to tether my a500 to my phone via Bluetooth... how can I tether via Bluetooth when that option isn't present. I can connect and do file transfers... but I want to get to my 3g via Bluetooth.

WiFi connections

Hello.

Only a moment of satisfaction after A501 update: (

Unfortunately, not connects to a WiFi network (g, n) ... an excellent signal, and as it begins to connect immediately signal falls to zero ... ehh ..

The problem applies only to secured networks WPA and WPA2.

In the case of an open network is okay.

Strangely Taboonay 2.2 with Honeyvillain 3.7 Kernel my wifi problems are gon, and 3G works great too, but....it takes FIVE MINUTES (yes, FIVE) to boot, while it toke 1 minute the first time it booted! It seems I'm the only one to have this problem only!

Ok,i just solved the problem with the free app ANDROBEX :-)
[Acer Iconia A500] Tom in AZ:
I had enough of the stock 3.2 update today and how it killed my SU access, so I went on a mission to downgrade to 3.0.1, install clockwork mod, and then install this ROM after a full wipe. Every seems to be working fine at the moment, the A500 is syncing with Google's servers to reinstall my apps (as I type this).

I first installed 2.1, and then jumped right to 2.2.... Did skipping 2.1b leave out any important updates, or are the 2.1b updates built into the 2.2 upgrade?

Thanks for all of the hard work on this!

Tom

BTW, can't wait to try out AdHoc with my robotics experiments!

Interesting!!! I do not see the Market App anywhere! No idea where it went, I was in the list before I rebooted (rebooted so all of the updated apps had a fresh system to work from, not needed I know).
[Acer Iconia A500] qwertylesh:
No, skipping 2.1b does not leave anything out. 2.1 > 2.2 is exactly like going 2.1 > 2.1b > 2.2

you get all the same features, its actually better to go 2.1 > 2.2 because there is less chance of introducing bugs. :)

Upgrading SU solved that problem for me. To v3
[Acer Iconia A500] Tom in AZ:
Appreciate the reply. The tablet has been running SMOOTH so far! I had a little trouble with WiFi today while I was away from home, but I am not going to attribute that to the tablet or software. I think it was bad placement of the router in the Cafe that I was at. When I turned on the WiFi Access Point on my phone everything was fine and I was on the internet with no more hitches.
[Acer Iconia A500] qwertylesh:
Personally I never had wifi problems on all the previous taboonay versions, but on 2.2 I only have one problem, where the wifi wont connect to the point unless I go into the wifi settings page, then it works.

not a serious problem at all.

I know others have had wifi problems on the older builds, where the tablet cant obtain an ip and that was an acer bug IIRC
[Acer Iconia A500] maris__:
There are several Wifi fixes out. the Wifi fix used in the actual Thor ROM seems to work best (at the expense of a higher battery drain, however). Don't know how to implement it into the Taboonay ROM.

Best regards, maris

GPS lagg

Hi VAche,

Thanks for this great ROM.

I have a strange reaction while using the GPS (with COPILOT 8.2 as well as with Google Navigator)

When I launch COPILOT (or Goggle Nav) the GPS status bar icom start blinking. AFter a while, it become fix and COPILOT start to locate.

But, from time to time, while I am outdoor with a clear sky viewand not moving, COPILOT consider gps lost the fix. But the status bar icon is still not blinking. After some time COPILOT is again FIX. And the situation occures again a few minuts later.

I Installed the Crypted's Patch 3.0 but nothing changed.

Do you have any idea about that?

Thanks.
[Acer Iconia A500] favoritalex:
Hi!

Been running this rom quite some time now. After charging the tab and turning it on I get stuck om the bootimage. Tried wiping data + cache without any luck.

Thinking I should flash the rom again, problem is my PC recently passed on and never bought a new one so theres no way for me to get the zip.

Any ideas what to do?

[Acer Iconia A500] silencer51:
I've been using Taboonay 2.2 for the past month.

Everything works great, except 720p mkv playback.

I've tried both richardtrip's kernel and thor's, both result in choppy playback, even with OC.

They seem identical in performance (I've got my a500 oc'd to 1,5ghz).

For some reason, Quadrant scores are extremely low (around 1800). I've seen some insane scores around the net, and even Engadget's review indicates that a stock a500 can reach around 2300 points.

I know Quadrant can be sketchy at times but this seems too big a difference...

Also, I can't find a way to permanently enable the interactive governor.. I could use SetCPU but I like how this ROM uses its own scripts for OCing.

I looked in /etc/init.d but apparently the overclocking & governor scripts are located elsewhere.. Does anyone know their location?

Thanks in advance!
[Acer Iconia A500] benjieb:
hi, i am on taboonay 2.2 with a A501. everything is working fine but:

- i don't get the type correction / suggestions when using the standard keybord. system language is french so i chose french in keybord settings, but the only typing suggestions that come up are my contact's names...

any idea how to fix ?

- wifi plays trick on me. often i catch a wifi signal, but when i try to connect i can't. have to reboot or stop / start wifi again...

thanks.

[Acer Iconia A500] gmfeny:
1. Did u check the input settings for auto correction.

2. Could u please explain more on this problem?
[Acer Iconia A500] amtzone:
dead space fc cause of the compatibility of the game itself...not for

the tegra 2 chipset....for nova and nova2 works fine for me...try other

version such as motorola xoom....:D:D:D

still if want to play dead space try using chain3d...i havent try it...
[Acer Iconia A500] benjieb:
Ok,

Type correction: yes it is enabled. Not so much auto correction, it should suggest full words as I type. It does it, but only suggest Names from my address book... I have selected French and tried US english... but nothing other then names come up.

FYI working very well on my android 2.3 phone...

Wifi: this happens most of the time not always, when I see a wifi network in the setting screen (that has say 2 bars out of 4) I point and select connect. It tries to obtain a network IP, and after a few seconds, the signal strenght indicator goes down to the lowest grade and it never connects... My other equipments would connect ok on that same network

Is it only me ?

Hey, i've finally rooted my tablet again and installed this rom. Love it so far, but was just wondering if there is a way to change the look of the status bar to that of the samsung galaxy tab. I know it is on the asus transformer and the revolver rom.

[Acer Iconia A500] Tapek-AU:
just a quick post of gratitude for being one of the only a501 chefs! have been using taboonay on and off since the day I got my tablet nearly 2 months ago and it is fantastic!

I have noticed minor boot time issues now and then but I don't restart that often and it's likely something I have done and not an issue with the ROM (using thor 3.9r3 kernal)

Looking forward to see what you can do with ICS when there is a working version for our devices!
[Acer Iconia A500] cdjones:
Wifi and sound

Love this ROM, better than standard ASUS by a mile. This is Taboonay 2.2

Two issues - these seem to be pretty common :

1) WIFI : cannot connect to open networks. I can connect tot my home (WEP) network, but other networks I get stuck at "obtaining IP address" and then the network is remembered, but no connection is established.

2) SOUND : speakers are on with headphones plugged in

Any fixes ?

I simply can't get the 3g usb modem to work...

I'm using:

ROM/Kernel: Taboonay 2.2 with kernel 2.6.36.3honeyvillain-3.7+

Carrier: "Claro" from Brazil

modem: E173s-6

I did the Zero CD and removed the microsd from the modem's slot.

What steps should i do next? i have rebooted with and without the usb 3g plugged, restarted the ril daemon several times, but no new menu or new option or any kind of connection. Tried while wifi was on and while it was off, it didn't help. Installed APN manager and set the CLARO APN and nothing.

What now?
[Acer Iconia A500] scott.ragan:
strange problem im having since installing taboonay 2.2

Ive lost root, kind of. Tried running gingerbreak and iconia-root and both fail. Tried to unroot and then root and still fails. Tried fixing permissions through cwm and that did no good. Tried updating superuser and it says "superuser has been grant superuser permissions" but then fails trying to get root.

Any thoughts?

Oh and evrything gets denied su oermissions no matter what.
[Acer Iconia A500] CoyotinX:
I had the same problem yesterday when i installed taboonay 2.1 and then decided to update the kernel from 3.4 to 3.7.

To resolve it, i wiped all 3 (cache, data and dalvik) and flashed villainrom. after first boot, i reset, wiped all again, flashed taboonay 2.1, then wiped all (lol, but i really did), flashed the 3.7 kernel and then 2.2 update from taboonay. Wiped all and then reboot... resolve the rooting problems and was updated. Gingerbreak also didn't work for me. hope it helped.

Front facing camera not working

I bought this tablet on Friday and after getting it rooted, I flashed taboonay 2.1 and then the 2.2 update and now this thing screams speed. Loving it except for one problem. Can't get the front facing camera to work. If I open the camera, the back camera works but when I choose the front facing camera, the screen shows black and the camera app just hangs. I can hit the home key to get back to the desktop but neither camera no longer works until a reset. Everything else works beautifully. Got it overclocked to 1.6 comfortablly and video plays very smooth. From flashing roms on my evo, I'm guessing that the camera issue is a kernel issue. Please help with a fix or best kernel to use and the location of the kernels on xda or net. Thanks for the help and great rom.
[Acer Iconia A500] amtzone:
i have been using this rom since it was release....no issues at all...about the

front camera..what apps that u mean?the stock camera works fine for me...

what kernels are u using?
[Acer Iconia A500] cdred:
I'm using 2.6.36.3HoneyVillain-3.7+ is the kernel I'm using. Rear camera works fine. But front facing camera isn't working at all. Only shows black screen. Tried to use the camera app to take a picture of myself with the front camera and it just hangs. Also tried Yahoo messenger video. Which kernel are you using? Was looking for Thor's kernel but can't find it.
[Acer Iconia A500] amtzone:
hmm...im also use the honeyvillain kernel...but never have an issues at all...

maybe u can try wipe and reflash back....because i come from taboonay

early release, for the yahoo messenger i think it is the apps itself....using

my incredible s also cannot use the front camera...dont know why...lol...

hope this help u....for me this taboonay is the stable one...i have been using

it long time...lol...:D:D:D
[Acer Iconia A500] cdred:
What programs work with the front facing camera? It's not that I use it everyday, but since I gave my 7" Galaxy Tab to my wife, she wants to try out video conference. Gonna try Tango to see if it is indeed Yahoo messenger. Does the front facing camera allow you to take a picture from it?
[Acer Iconia A500] elrooster:

Another 3g dongle question.

At the lock screen if the dongle isn't inserted i get the "insert simcard" and in the corner it says "no service".

When I insert the the dongle the insert simcard goes away but it still says no service.

I tried the file edit in the build.prop but every time i try and save it it says unsuccsseful. I have tried 4 different file editors, but my last line says "ro.carrier=wifi-onlyro.carrier=wifi-only"

Do i need to add a last line"#ro.carrier=wifi-only"

I am using a huwawei e1820. i didn't know at the time i ordered it the "e" stood for european. I am hoping to pick up at&t or t-mobile here in the states.

I also have disabled the sd card function on it.

Sorry I am really trying to get an understanding of android.
[Acer Iconia A500] navodwickra:
if you insert the dongle after boot up or reinsert it you need to run ril-restart
[Acer Iconia A500] antonio8:
I tried (with wifi off) turning off the tablet and inserting the dongle then power up but I still get "no service". Then running ril-restarter.

Running ril-restart does nothing. It says it has been granted super user permission. When I go to check running services it is not listed as running.

How can I know for sure if it is running?
[Acer Iconia A500] navodwickra:
can you see the Mobile data in the Wifi menu? if so try adding the necessary VPNs. BTW did you disable the mass storage on your dongle using putty?
[Acer Iconia A500] cdred:
Yea. This is strange. Everything else works great. Not that I use the front facing camera much but would like it to work. Even flashed back stock to see if it works and no go. Maybe its defective. Can't access it from the camera app. When I switch from rear to front camera, the image goes black and after about a minute, the camera app force closes and access to the rear camera becomes unaccessable until reset.
[Acer Iconia A500] antonio8:
Yep I have mass storage disabled.

I have an option add VPN but I have no idea what to enable.

The options are

1. Add PPTP VPN

2. Add L2TP VPN

3. Add L2TP/IPSec PSK VPN

4. Add L2TP/IPSec CRT VPN

How would you compare your ROM to other's, specifically Thors and Honeylicious? Basically, what are reasons to go with this ROM over other's? It seems like all of these ROMs are relatively the same, so I'd appreciate your input on what makes yours shine.

Thanks!

Mike
[Acer Iconia A500] BrianDigital:
In

Yes most of the honeycomb roms are kinda of the same you need to check what's added and removed to see it its what you want to use, now this is going to sound odd but for whatever reason the silicon in my tablet works best with this rom, basically you need to just try it for yourself and if it runs smoothly just run with it.

I know it sounds odd but me and my girl both have nexus s 's and bought at the same time. But for whatever reason my phone loves kernels that use cfs runs great also my phone hates miui runs laggy, but for her bfs runs best on her phone(and even at times we were on the same rom) and her phone loves miui. Processors are funny like that I guess
