is overclock possible?

Hello,

Congratulations for this great work!

ics in the end...

I was wondering if overclock was possible with this ROM

(obviously, nofrillscpu can't go over 1GHz)

Is there any other kernel available to achieve that?

By the way, I have noticed wifi lags (wifi fix installed)

Once again thanks a lot!
[Acer Iconia A500] vizzzy:
Nope, its not possible to OC with stock kernel. And as far as i know there is no other kernel to achieve this at the moment.
[Acer Iconia A500] devetle:
Yes. I followed the instructions. I rebooted into recovery, had a wipe all / factory reset, then installed zip from sdcard, choosed Taboonay_3.0.zip. The flash began with an interesting output "ramdom offset 0x21" (every time the hex changes), followed by other normal output "copying /flexrom ...".

Then I installed zip from sdcard and selected update_Taboonay_3.0.1.zip. After this, I tried to reboot, but the tab stuck at pixels and reboot into recovery automatically.

The cwm version is 5.0.0.0.
[Acer Iconia A500] JohnBecker:
Excellent ROM! I just installed it this morning hoping it would work like my Galaxy Nexus running 4.0.4. It's very sweet and working great. I even got the games working too. I've had no problem with it whatsoever! Thanks!

It's good to see ICS working so well. Wonder what Acer is waiting for? They should just hire you!

EDIT: Well ... as I was typing this, I was playing with the tablet and noticed some unusual video glitches when changing apps or screens. Nothing major, just an observation.
[Acer Iconia A500] siege121677:
Maybe I'm just blind, but how do I go about adding widgets to the home screen? Long pressing only brings up wallpaper options.
[Acer Iconia A500] shimdac:
There's a tab in the app drawer for widgets in ICS

Follow Up on Asphalt 6 HD Error

Evening folks this is a follow up on my post before about aspahlt 6 video play back error upon looking through my system log it seems the error is being stated as via logcat terms "cant playback video device/decode only supports 720p" playback stopped.

so... if this is the case my question is how do i enable higher than 720p support i vaguely remember someone asking if there was 1080p support and i believe vache stated that it was disabled so... how do i enable it does it just req. changing something in a system file? or do i need some patch? :confused: as 3.2.1 HC did have 1080 support.

Confirmed A501 3g working with Taboonay 3.0.1?

Hello guys,

did anyone managed to get proper 3g data working on the A501 with the Taboona 3.0.1?

I saw in previous replies on the thread that some testing is being done but no positive outcome, right?

P.S. Hope i am wrong. Also i own A501 devices - so whatever i can test - let me know.
[Acer Iconia A500] bog3nator:
is there a way to get the bookmarks for your gmail account to show on the acer ring instead of the local ones?
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
It's a known glitch with this Beta "leak".

---------- Post added at 07:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:50 PM ----------

NO NO NO :( It's don't work. Needs a 501 kernel, or a whole lot of magic from Drellisdee ;)

Best bet? Keep your ears open for any OTA ICS update for the 501. Then tell me ;)

---------- Post added at 07:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:52 PM ----------

Ehhhh.... I can only say, what do you expect from Beta code, and a feature that wasn't even supposed to be in said beta code?

Am sure, that full official releases will have things working properly. After the first couple of OTA's ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] femmyade2001:
+1. Does anyone know if this is possible?
[Acer Iconia A500] antonio8:
found out why my Acer Recovery Tool wasn't showing any roms. thought it was the 3.0.1 rom since it happened after the install.

my sd card became corrupt somehow. i put in another and it works fine.

windows says the corrupt one needs formatted. i have not backed it up in a while and i do not want to lose everything on it. any suggestions?
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
If fixdisk or checkdisk don't work, well, live and learn. Things happen.
[Acer Iconia A500] velqn:
Thanks Moscow Desire,

then there ain`t big options for me as a poor 501 owner :)

I will migrate to Alexandra III :) looks like the best rom for A501 right now.

P.S.

I am from Sofia, so Sofia -> Moscow is nothing a good connection i would say :)

Thanks for your rom!
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
It's ok, and thanks.

Wish I could tell you more help for your sd.

I try, and I say that loosely, to back mine up every couple weeks. Hell, I don't even trust google, so I back my stuff to the PC (calendar and such).

One never knows when the "byte monster" will strike.

Sofia, a beautiful city. On my list to visit when baby grows up a little.

Any problems with my "mis-behaving child" on install, let me know. I use RA recovery. So I have the install down to a fine art. ;) CWM... well,,,,,,,,, It's do-able, just have patience ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] nicopilami:
nope, same for me !
[Acer Iconia A500] hav0c:
Same here. Sometimes the screen goes black. Buying stuff in the market does not work as well.

Hope Acer releases the official OTA soon :)
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Welcome to Beta ;) and for an app that wasn't supposed to be in this build. Be thankful you have the "ring" and pray to the Acer gods, that it is fixed in the final release. :D:D:D:D
[Acer Iconia A500] nicopilami:
of course I'm thankful !!!!

But I can't install with Taboony (ICS)

2. Format Loop -> Ok.

3. Mount Loop -> Ok.

Anyone have same problem with me?

Thank

Quick Post to thanks people who donated. I'm now saved because of you. All should be fine from now, and the best of all i can keep my A500 and provide some new ROM's for the community.

I'll make a bigger post when i will have time.

Again, THANKS YOU !!

I am very happy for you, the community is there to do this kind of action too.

superuser permission denied

I've looked everywhere but I can't find a fix for the superuser permissions. Superuser denies every app. Does anyone have a fix?
[Acer Iconia A500] SCDroid:
I keep having random reboots, anyone have any idea why? I wiped data, cache and davlik before flashing and went back and wiped davlik again.
[Acer Iconia A500] jingtex:
You can found in supperuser app

Goto right corner menu (option )

Security->Automatic response tap it.

You will found 3 choice

1. Prompt

2. Deny

3. Allow

You can choose 1 or 3
[Acer Iconia A500] zimphishmonger:
No problem vache! Glad we could throw enough to keep you in the game. As far as I'm concerned, its a few bucks very well. Spent :)
[Acer Iconia A500] bato757:
I've tried this method before with no success. The strange thing is, on certain app like Mybackup pro will say "superuser premissions granted''. But if i try to open Titanium backup it say "Sorry I could not acquire root privileges. This app will not work! Please verify that ROM is rooted and includes busybox, and try again. Any thoughts?
[Acer Iconia A500] jingtex:
I think this problem not from this Rom (Taboony).

You should wipe all things then re flash.

I do this fpr 2 times. (Not because rom problem but I want to try other roms)

Basic for root. I use 'Better Terminal' . I can use 'su' command without problem.
[Acer Iconia A500] Euclid's Brother:
Try deleting the entry for TB in superuser app, then run TB again and see if it will ask you "Allow/Deny".

Wrong thread...
[Acer Iconia A500] favoritalex:
First, this is a great rom.

I have to ask if anyone else are having problems connecting VPN? The device is working to connect but then times out.

This previously worked on 3.2.1 rom and works well on my i9000 running ics4.0.3 with the same configuration im trying here.

Trying to get a PPTP connection if that helps determine the problem.

Thanks in advance for the help!

Boot image problem

Recently flashed taboonay and I don't know what I did wrong but I get that static screen when booting up, right after the acer logo and before the iconiatab icon shows up. Not sure if this has been covered, my apologies if it has been, just not taking interest to browse through all the pages right now. Thanks.
[Acer Iconia A500] FloatingFatMan:
If you can't take an interest in helping yourself, why should anyone take an interest in helping you? Your question has been asked time and time again, and answered too. There's a search function on these forum, try it.
[Acer Iconia A500] Athrun88:
He's probably going to whine about having to sift through 270+ pages even with the search function. Kinda worth looking through all the pages if he's going to ask that kind of question though, IMO.

----------------------------------

The graphical glitch on startup is known and doesn't present any issue past the boot operation. Unless you're rebooting every 5 minutes, this shouldn't matter in the slightest.
[Acer Iconia A500] sgtchili:

I have a similar issue when using Chrome beta with several tabs and switching quickly between tabs, screen freeze (with black screen or locked screen or screen with "interference" like the screen when booting).

Someone has the same problem ?
[Acer Iconia A500] chasmanian:
it's normal and expected. In the original thread about the leak, it's explained that something in the boot loader of the ICS leak causes it. It should be fixed when Acer releases the official release.

Unfortunally today Play Store refuse to buy things anymore, it's unfortunate, with all amazing promotions. Also revert to market is impossible to me
[Acer Iconia A500] LiquidBreadMan:
I had this same problem with Market even before Play Store. Had to buy an App on my phone so I could later download it on the tablet. Tried clearing data on Market and Google Services Framework then rebooted and still no joy.
[Acer Iconia A500] bog3nator:
for anyone having problems downloading and buying apps in google play, i found this on play.google.com...under trouble downloading.

You must be able to successfully sign into Google Talk to download Android apps on Google Play. Make sure your device is signed into Google Talk by following these steps:

Go to your phone’s app launcher, and press the Talk app.

If you’re already signed into Talk, press Menu, and then touch Sign out.

Launch Talk again to sign in.

p.s. i have yet to try and buy anything since the update let me know if it works for you...

I have been on "the-one-that-cannot-be-named-here" ICS rom for at least 2 months before trying yours.

I must say i'm gladly surprised: yours feel at least as smooth (in fact, my feeling is yours is smoother :-) ).

and now i have a working camera, acer ring, and a full working polaris office: i can for example edit shapes in an existing presentation, thing i did not manage to do in any other office suite, especially on ICS.

no doubt this rom is now my daily driver.

keep up the good work :-)

[Acer Iconia A500] Athrun88:
Starting to think XDA should bump the post threshold for the DEV section to ~100 posts and 6mos-1yr of membership. Can't handle all these questions that a simple search would accomplish.

Too bad you can't read beyond the first three words. You ask for an answer and you get it and you're still not pleased. Sound like my 3 year old brat.

------------------------

Never had interference on my tab. Though on my Desire Z, I get interference looking marks in some apps when the memory gets low. A reboot should fix this, though keep in mind that Chrome for Android is still beta and some of the people over at the DesireZ/G2 forums think it's a memory leak from the app. The stock browser is just a stripped down version of Chrome IMO, just lacks some of the pizzazz that Chrome Beta brought to ICS.

I'm not much into custom roms on my tablet like my phone but I'm looking for faster performance on my a500. Is the ICS faster then stock 3.2.1 and does everything work? Also does hdmi out work? Just looking for solid performance so when I show my acer off to ipad users, they can be jealous lol. Thanks guys.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Understand this is a "leaked beta"

That being said, no, it is not faster. Not in benchmarks anyhow. Yes, the app drawer is more responsive (don't know why people are so fixed on that, when adding a launcher app takes care of it)

HDMI, you will have to check ;)

It;s a beta.

Anyone having an issue of the tablet shutting completely off after the screen shuts off for a little bit. If it shut off I can hit the power button and the lock screen will come back up but if its off for maybe 10 minutes or so and i try to hit the power button nothing happens. I have to hold the power button for 10 seconds until it boots up and i see the Acer logo. Anyone else having this?

I did a complete wipe, Installed 3,0, then installed update 3.0.1, then wifi fix, then acer lockscreen.

Not sure if it's just me and I need to start over again or not.

Thanks in advance.

Anyone know whats wrong?

When i try to buy an app, it says "an error occurred. please try again"
[Acer Iconia A500] zayaabby:
Well I seem to have fixed it. I read and did what someone did when they installed the ROM.

Instead of doing a factory reset/wipe like I had been doing in the past...I went to the format section and formatted cache, data, system, and ____rom (forget the name). The only one i didn't format was the sdcard for obvious reasons. I then installed the ROM and the bootloader and I seem to be working good now. Guess the factory reset/wipe didn't wipe all that should of been cleared.

Hope that helps someone else with the issue in the future!

[Acer Iconia A500] ravinaziankid:
How are these ICS Roms right now? Are they as stable as the 3.2? I don't know if I should flash these ICS roms yet because I will need to rely on my tablet to replace my PC and I want everything to run as well as it is right now. Can someone confirm or let me know how they run and if there are any issues right now with them, mainly with wifi connection?
[Acer Iconia A500] paugustin:
Well you obviously haven't bothered to read anything...

I'll bother to tell you anyway : these are based on leaked ROM meaning they are beta, they have bugs and they don't work 100%. So stay away and please try to be curious and make a little reading, thanks.
[Acer Iconia A500] chasmanian:
This was happening to me since 3.2. If you have Titanium Backup installed, try uninstalling Google Maps. Make a backup first though. Thats what fixed mine.

Did not noticed that was note working before bckp/restore.

Will try to fresh install when back home and see if it fix
[Acer Iconia A500] ravinaziankid:
That's why I asked here before doing so, it only took you a few seconds to let people know that there are some issues and it's only a beta.

BTW, I have done some work on my phone and tablet before and I mentioned my tablet already has the HC3.2.1 flashed from thor, I just wanted to get a quick rundown on how stable this rom is.

For Asus weather widget, just Google the APK or search XDA and use root explorer to copy it to /system/apps and then press and hold it to set the permissions the same as the other apps in the directory. Turn your tab off then on and your set
[Acer Iconia A500] cq842000:
Followed your advice, and after a power cycle, all is well in the land of Iconia again. Thanks alot for the help. I guess I need to wipe the battery statistics to remove the entry. I found a nifty and free little root explorer called file expert, it also allows one to change write permissions when rooted.
