This 3.0d rom has been working well the past few months, but lately it has been stalling a lot. Also, I can not update Gmail or install Google Play Services. So I can not log into YouTube via the official YouTube app. Any idea on a tune up and a way to update and install that stuff? Thanks in advance.
[Acer Iconia A500] Tom in AZ:
Wow guys, no one else is experiencing this??

Maybe if I flash over http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20121130-signed.zip it might correct the problem??
[Acer Iconia A500] dibb_nz:
Not sure if jb gapps will work with this ICS rom. Since vache left there's been no support or updates.... So wot you got is wot u got I'm afraid....
[Acer Iconia A500] josh2020glacier:
No you need the ICS gapps for this one
[Acer Iconia A500] Hotrod518:
None of the Download link work.

Does anyone know where I can download this from another location or does someone have it in their dropbox or something?
[Acer Iconia A500] kirbee213:
Are there any mirrors for "AcerShell.zip"?
[Acer Iconia A500] droidxxxxx:
Does the 501 edition work on the 500? Also.. After I put the patch in the wifi doesn't work.. I didn't try it without the patch.. And all the downloads in the beginning are broken so I can't download the fix...
[Acer Iconia A500] Tom in AZ:
Well, suddenly my Wi-Fi is shot. Does anyone still have the wifi patch for this rom?

Not sure what rom to try next with minimal config. Not sure I want to try go to the skrilex just yet.
[Acer Iconia A500] rayburne:
This is the Taboonay wifi fix I have.

Question....

I never took the ICS OTA.

Since 3.0.1 I have been on Taboonay 3.0d.

Can I follow the guides to upgrade to ICS from this current setup (HC bootloader and Taboonay 3.0d) or should I revert back to stock then upgrade?

Thanks in advance.
[Acer Iconia A500] sanaell:
do not ask to REPLACE

ask to add please that will be nicer and less selfish :D

actually the asus weather could support forecast but seems not implemented :D

Could you provide a screen shoot of the weather widget you speak about please, I don't remember where the "galaxy" was beautiful with the BLOCK style widget
[Acer Iconia A500] Euclid's Brother:
FYI: I even get that occasional "pop" when the volume is turned all the way down to vibrate. I don't know if that info helps any.
[Acer Iconia A500] thahandyman:
so nobody else has the audio stop working after coming out of sleep mode? I wonder why mine does that. I uninstalled Picasso 1.1.0 today and reinstalled this with full wipe, cache, dalvik, and batt says. Still same thing.... audio works for however long I keep the screen on after reboot and then if I put this into sleep mode or turn off screen when it comes back in the audio isdoes not work until I reboot
[Acer Iconia A500] thor2002ro:
I think you are listening to music with the default google music... that is bugged in sleep mode... try using winamp....
[Acer Iconia A500] chr0m:
Do xvid avis work from the stock video player on here? I tried a previous build and they did not. I think it is something to do with the Thor kernel because they didn't work on other roms I tried with that kernel, but work fine with stock kernel.
[Acer Iconia A500] alvanyap:
im having the audio issue as well after update to 1.0.2
[Acer Iconia A500] jcrabapple:
I'm currently running virtuous Picasso but I see a lot of people in this thread talking about audio problems. I have had a problem with Google music stopping between songs when the screen is off. I did some testing and tried streaming music from Amazon cloud player. It does the same thing. So I thought it might have something to do with the data connection turning off. But I downloaded some music from Google music and Amazon cloud player and played music locally. And I still experienced the same problem with the screen off. This has happened to me on Taboonay, VP, VG, and Honeyvillian with Unity kernel and Thor's kernel. I hope this information helps others who are frustrated with this problem and maybe lead to a solution.
[Acer Iconia A500] thahandyman:
thor.... its not the music that goes out it is all the sound. YouTube, online videos, Pandora... everything. Is there any reason u can think of why that might be happening... I installed honeyvillian with ur kernel and same thing happened... does my a500 just not like ur kernel? Because I personally think its fast as s***but I just can't figure this out

Edit: also I dont believe that electronics just don't like eachother... was a joke. there's got to be a logical reason why my sound cuts out after going to sleep/standby
[Acer Iconia A500] patryq:
+1

I have similar problems.
[Acer Iconia A500] madnish30:

[Acer Iconia A500] sanaell:
yeah open again :D

"mettre le kernel de thor etait mortel pour ta ROM, car le thor tue"....

translation but less funny because it's just about french sound

"put the thor's kernel was lethal because the thor kill (that in french is thor tue=tortue = turtle)....

good night everyone

I hope one day thor release some source of his precious kernel (or maybe we need to wait the RC)

question...

if I put the 1.0.3 update over the 1.0.3 thor kernel, will the kernel gone?
[Acer Iconia A500] vache:
Nice one for the "tortue" :p

About 1.0.3 update, it's only for the stock kernel, useless to flash it. Nothing new in it.
[Acer Iconia A500] ms893:
First congratulation to Sanaell !

Now I would like to know if there is an interest to apply the Taboonay 1.0.3 with Thor Kernel (as it's possible to download it !) ?

(or is it the same ROM than 1.0.2 ?)
[Acer Iconia A500] thahandyman:
i did a little test today... installed 1.0.3 without Thor's kernel and my sound turning off problem went away... then installed the kernel and again the sound started cutting out.can anyone think of any reason why that might be happening with his kernel?
[Acer Iconia A500] chr0m:
Does this rom have the sleep of death? I am beginning to think it is a hardware issue because it happens on every rom I try.
[Acer Iconia A500] CSeb95:
Great ROM and Great Kernel !!

Online kitchen is a wonderful idea ! Thanks !

Do you think it's possible to add Samsung's colored preferences menu and maybe swype ;-)?

Merci beaucoup ,

Seb
[Acer Iconia A500] apmxe:
maybe it is not beautiful.but forecast is very useful.It will be perfect if the asus weather can support forecast .:)
[Acer Iconia A500] sanaell:
In thailand: Beautifull matter a lot, it's real :D

I think until thor will not release sources of his kernel, people will not be able to help to figure about the "boring" bugs the kernel got

What about UNITY V5 is it compatible with taboonay

Vache could you makes some kind of menu for different flavor

- Stock ROM

- Kernel UNITY Vx

- Kernel Thor (when it will be possible)

- non 3G version (because I don't know but I think the custom rom is little bit faster than the official rom) and not everyone want use a 3G usb device (my phone is enough to thether)
[Acer Iconia A500] bigbean2006:
Is there a working patch for this rom cause I cant receive incoming bluetooth transmissions? Is there a solution or a work around?
[Acer Iconia A500] jabbermacy:
Does this include the Virtuous CPU scaling scripts? If no, how can they be easily installed?
[Acer Iconia A500] jabbermacy:
No issue here, reflash?
[Acer Iconia A500] vache:
No it's not included, and i will not include it or explain how to add it since it's a Virtuous Team work.

You can use SetCPU with screen on/off profiles, do the same thing.
[Acer Iconia A500] sanaell:
+1 I do like the color settings menu from samsung...

LG on their phone have that also... it's better some color sometimes.

where is the file to modify just the battery icons ? and the wifi icons... I can't find them...
[Acer Iconia A500] chinaboy1999:
I like this rom , and many friends who in our A500bbs like it too,thanks
[Acer Iconia A500] vache:
Look at the SystemUI.apk ;) (drawable-mdpi)
[Acer Iconia A500] verdigny:
Does it mean that for each apk, we can:

1 - Unzip the apk file.

2 - Replace, modify pictures in all the folders located in \res\

3 - Re Zip the Folder

4 - Change the extension to apk

and it will work :eek:

Too easy to be true :rolleyes:

Does an application as Restorator (Windows) exist on Android?
[Acer Iconia A500] sanaell:
I am looking for this hahaha

(for the settings icons)
[Acer Iconia A500] jai134:
I don't understand how to make my 3G dongle functional. Do I need to follow thor's guide and install those modules from his post? I'm checking the modem (Huawei E1750) and get following output.

What do I need to do to get it up and running?
[Acer Iconia A500] vache:
Right, exept that you don't have to unzip/rezip, it will not work. You have to push your png files in the current APK.
[Acer Iconia A500] vache:
Wich kernel are you using ?
[Acer Iconia A500] Johnny0906:
I could be off (lol) but I think Thor is a reference to the Norse mythological 'Hammer God'.

Mr. 'Im not a native english speaker' lol
[Acer Iconia A500] jai134:
Thor's V1.1
[Acer Iconia A500] tatuk:
Thanks for the great work, vache! (especially with the thor2002 kernel on the side) :)

What is the best way to get to shared NTFS drive? Which app is recommended?
[Acer Iconia A500] GeneralSmart:
so hoe do i activate my huawei 3g donglecpmon this rom?
[Acer Iconia A500] vache:
Updated to v1.0.4 - Check post #2 for details.
[Acer Iconia A500] GeneralSmart:
I just tried download your update but its wrong name....its xxx.zip; so this causes unupdateability....needed to rename...deleted the ";" then its fine
[Acer Iconia A500] vache:
Downloaded fine both update. Don't understand what's wong.
[Acer Iconia A500] dronarg:
If I update 1.02 to 1.04 does it keep thor Kernel ?

Ah ok I checked and there are two updates. Thanks !
[Acer Iconia A500] verdigny:
Sorry, a little bit off-topic.

Are the lines after correct to replace a png file in an app (SDK tools on PC):

remount // to make system files RW
push file.png /system/app/SystemUI.apk/res/drawable-mdpi
remount // to make system files RO

Sorry for this newbie's question :o
[Acer Iconia A500] xdamanu100:
Merci Vache c'est super! best Rom so far.

Merci Vache (c'est moi qui rie!) here is a re-cap of what I have found...

I have tried wifi no probs inc tehering from my Hd2

restored apps from titanium backup all ok

Hdmi output perfect both screens on

You tube Hd looks really clean

sd mount all media can be seen in mobo, rock player, & nemo player from external SD card

all my games restored are working, but still no luck with Nova & hero sparta full versions but that a 3.1 problem not your rom!

Still issues again with 3.1 & not your rom but you might be able to sort out before someone else does!

mkv files plays smooth with mobo player but no sound

& with sound on rock player but in slow out of sync picture

new stock browser (all 3.1) still identifies as mobile on some sites.

obviously I did tablet / desktop view & about:debug settings

When bluetooth is paired with audio stream wifi stops working.

updated to 1.4 (thor)

overall feels smooth & fast I am sticking with this one!

merci encore de Londres mes de Paris d'origine.
[Acer Iconia A500] :
I just got that crackling sound they talked about in the galaxy thread. It's like a radio station not in tune-sound coming from the speakers and headphones. As soon as I played musack the crackling disappeared.

Otherwise, this is the best ROM. Cheers, thanks and merci beaucoup for all the effort

[Acer Iconia A500] vache:
You should update to last thor kernel ;) (1.1beta5)
[Acer Iconia A500] snickle:
1.0.4 with the latest Thor kernel is working great. The OC scripts seem to work better at 1.2 than the previous release using cpu mater to 1.4
[Acer Iconia A500] jxing1234:
which the difference from "thor kernel" and "stock kernel"？
[Acer Iconia A500] clevo1234:
dear vache:

I really like your room very much, but one thing that confuse me is samsung book in the online kitchen.

Can you help me to fix the issue about import crash in Samsung book.

Thanks for your kindness.
[Acer Iconia A500] PhilipZ:
Hi Vache,

Thanks for great rom. I found some missing thing about 3G. In /system/vendor there no lib directory, but rild script is looking there for option.ko and usb_wwan.ko. This modules also missing from /system/lib/modules I use thor kernel ( 2.6.36.4-thor-V1.1 beta 5 ), but have no success to find correct modules. Easy resolution for missing lib is "ln -s /system/vendor/lib /system/lib/modules", but missing real modules is real problem.

One other not big issue - from online kitchen add ApInAp but when try to start Games, Multimedia and Reading receive Force Close.
[Acer Iconia A500] cq842000:
I recently experienced the apinap fc problem, for me the solution was to go to apps, drag the games folder to the ''i'' in the upper right corner and clear data. I had to rebuild the content list again, but no more force close.
[Acer Iconia A500] sanaell:
you are off...

I am playing with the sounds of the words

THOR = TOR

TUE = KILL

mortel = LETHAL

so to put the thor kernel was lethal, because thor tue.

the true joke is

what is the most dangerous animal on the planet

the turtle because the "Tor Tue (turtle in french is tortue)"

got it now ?

and thanks from midgard
[Acer Iconia A500] MetAloid:
here how to fix it

re-donwload from kitchen and install ES FILE EXPLORER from market (it is free)
[Acer Iconia A500] :
snid is missing in system info after last update using stock kernel. Is there a fix for this? Not too worried about it just wondering.
[Acer Iconia A500] Long_Lost:
Nice and fast, appears to be working great.

though I found the Wizz Honeycomb widgets do not display, they are there just not visible for some reason, rebooted, same. Not a game stopper but I do like those widgets.
[Acer Iconia A500] daveid:
Does anyone have a working Xbox 360 controller with this rom? If so, which kernal? Mine will light up but doesn't do anything else...

I have done the following, create a copy of the XBOX 360 kl (Vendor_045e_Product_028e.kl) with the proper ID's from my controller (it is a generic) Vendor_12ab_Product_0301.kl. I get the following from dmesg:

obviously I want all of that to show for the Xbox controller, but something isn't initializing right. I am going to try the stock kernel version of the ROM and see if that does anything, but I am clueless as to where this would lie for fixing...
[Acer Iconia A500] jabbermacy:
Still have audio pops with 1.0.4 Thor update :(
[Acer Iconia A500] PhilipZ:
Unfortunately this not help me. I clear data for "Acer content folders", but they still Force Close :-(
[Acer Iconia A500] vache:
It doesn't include last thor kernel. Update to beta5.
[Acer Iconia A500] vache:
Modules are now included in the kernel if you're using thor edition.

I'll check the FC with ApInAp.
[Acer Iconia A500] clevo1234:
thanks, it can work. but can't import from external_sd folder, it will be crash.

I hope there wil be another solution.

Thanks a lot for your sharing.:)
[Acer Iconia A500] vichychang:
Why the wifi is always automatically disconnect after install 1.0.4 from 1.0.2？TKS！Is it my problem or the update 1.0.4？。。:confused:
[Acer Iconia A500] dmatusek76:
+1 have the same problem, i did clean install with thors kernel.
[Acer Iconia A500] vache:
Could you give more details ?

Also, a new thor kernel is avalaible, try to flash it.
[Acer Iconia A500] MetAloid:
yep the samme thing happen if u try to import from usb

never try it before since i put all my book on the internal sd
[Acer Iconia A500] ssj5trunks:
Hi, i have problems with usb port, i formatted Fat32 a usb pendrive 32gb but i dont see files in it from any file manager, why?

Any solution?
[Acer Iconia A500] PhilipZ:
Hi Vache,

just right now download via vache-android latest "thor kernel 1.1beta5.1.zip", but inside still missing kernel modules except bcm4329 and scsi.... Do I need to download full rom from http://vache-android.com/v1/index.php?site=files&file=66 (version 1.0.4 still have date 12.7.2011) or need to wait for correct thor kernel file?
[Acer Iconia A500] vache:
Flash the latest thor kernel. (1.1beta5.1)

I was not clear enought.

Modules are built-in, they are included in the kernel itself, so you don't need third party files.
[Acer Iconia A500] ssj5trunks:
Where i can download this file???
[Acer Iconia A500] vache:
Check here : http://vache-android.com/v1/index.php?site=news_comments&newsID=18
[Acer Iconia A500] ssj5trunks:
Thank i download it now and test it.

I hope it work.

I install first the kernel from recovery and after the upgrade of Taboonay 1.0.4 Thor kernel version is right?
[Acer Iconia A500] vache:
Yep, it's ok.
[Acer Iconia A500] daveid:
I think this one got lost, I know thor requested on his site some dmesg output of a non-working Xbox 360 controller, here it is.
[Acer Iconia A500] vache:
It was not lost, and it should be fixed in last kernel update. (1.1beta5.1) Did you flash it ?
[Acer Iconia A500] ssj5trunks:
Sorry Vache but USB Fat32 32Gb pendrive not work and another 2gb Fat32 Pendrive not work.

I installed last Thor kernel and upgraded to Taboonay 1.0.4 but nothing, any other solution????
[Acer Iconia A500] daveid:
I did, same behavior, this is the same with or without my custom .kl file, going to return this controller tonight and try a different one, maybe it just doesn't want to work with this tablet... idk
[Acer Iconia A500] vache:
Can you try with an USB disk or similar ? (or a pendrive from an other manufacturer)
[Acer Iconia A500] ssj5trunks:
I tried 2 different FAT32 usb stick and a 320gb HDD NTFS with drive mount, but i dont see anything.

In Android settings->Memory i dont see any info about dimension of usb sticker.

In Recovery i cant mount SD card, it give me an error if this can help you to solve problem.

I installed the Clockworkmod Recovery 5.0.0.0(thor2002ro rev1.3.4) and last thor kernel.

If i go in Recovery->Mount and Storage Menu->mount as USB storage it give me an error: Kernel does not support usb storage. Why???
[Acer Iconia A500] vache:
Dunno what's wrong for you, i'll make some test tonight, it was working well last try i made.

Does anybody else have issue with USB host ?
[Acer Iconia A500] ssj5trunks:
Tonight i replace the recovery with stock and test usb port.
[Acer Iconia A500] sanaell:

Vache

I have to say something

Since I use your ROM I am really happy, thanks a lot.

I own 2 tablets one running the latest firmware from Acer with all bloatware, rooted, and titaniumbackup.

mine run your rom...

I say that your ROM with Thor kernel is slightly faster than the ACER stock one... smoother...

I just want ask something can you see with thor to get the SNID and Serial back

I confirm that is from the kernel and not from the ROM I checked your ROM without thor and with... without all those numbers are there...

Thanks

I tried to modify the settings.apk... OMG my tablet was broken... SystemUI FC and Settings FC,.... have to reset from CWM and reinstall all...

I just copied the galaxy one to the tablet, and with root explorer... but even by puttin the old one back... still got all error.. weird...
