[LG Optimus 2x] thay:
it s better you wait DjDroid V04 beta is in advanced test status ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] magicmarkus:
its possible to test it too??

i cant wait.

i need a rom for monday gmt + 1 7.00 aclock
[LG Optimus 2x] bullyfrog:
This ROM feels good. Flashed the .22 baseband followed by this ROM and enabled Stay Awake (under application -> development) Clear calls, no bsods, no random shutdowns.. this is gonna be my daily from now onwards. Seriously.. thanks for packaging this!
[LG Optimus 2x] coilfan:
Yep, same here. The first real stable ROM with great battery life and stable and fast network connection.
[LG Optimus 2x] thay:
DjDroid V4 is out based on this stock rom with Maja s optimizations LINK
[LG Optimus 2x] sahilkhurana:
I am on BB 405 and stock ROM 10b.

I can flash this (Stock 10c ) or do i need to upgrade BB as well ?
[LG Optimus 2x] thay:
Zip contains Only Rom & Ril not Baseband

Works with alla basebands and you can update it after with a new one without reflash rom
[LG Optimus 2x] sahilkhurana:
Is updating to a new BB a must or is it a good practice ? Which BB would go well with this ROM and RIL ?
[LG Optimus 2x] parthabhatta:
Ihave flashed this nandroid ROM backup of v10c after flashing BB614 from Paul's thread in Modaco. Everything runs satisfactorily in 2g conection. Don't know with 3g.
[LG Optimus 2x] haarlem2004:
Hi all, i just want to say that i'am using this rom for days now and it's perfect for me! Its fast stable and my batt.drain is great! Thanx!!
[LG Optimus 2x] monaco_errante:
Hi!

just for me to understand the proper steps to be followed..

1) using CMR I flash this ZIP

2) flash new Baseband 622 with smartflash

3) that's it

am I right? or I must invert any of the above steps?

thanks!
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
Yes, invert steps 1 and 2. Flash baseband first, then boot into CWM and flash the ROM.

(Make sure to take a backup of everything you need before any of this.)

turn on odin

attach phone to pc with usb cable

now while holding down both volume buttons put battery back in.

now you should be in download mode and go back to stock with odin from here!

make sure u put the proper .pit and .pda file in there proper places on odin and ur set to go.

Enjoy and also make sure u have the proper samsung drivers

Bonjour la vache !

Would it be possible to have some patches to add some removed apps (for example I use Lumiread, and I would like to keep it), and also to change the system buttons theme (I prefer the Asus them or Galaxy theme for the Back, home,... keys).

Is it possible also to overclock the A500 (like Univity Kernel do) ?

Thanks.
[Acer Iconia A500] vache:
About removed apps, read carefully the first post ;) (there's an online kitchen for that)

I can add some themed framework too for buttons.

For kernel, we have some issues with custom kernel and last 3.1 update. It's not possible ATM.

Ok thanks...

Sorry, I forgot the kitchen (it's not my usual place :D) ! and YES, it would be great if you add some themes to the kitchen.

Wallpapers works fine for me. Generally, for now it seems like the best rom for iconia, O've tried I thing 3-4 other, and this is the most stable, and has working support for 3G modems, external hhd with ntfs (amazing ;)) etc...

Keep on working on it

One thing missing in this rom is a GOOD keyboard, with numbers on top like in asus keyboard, also I'm from poland, but there is no polish symbols in current keyboard. Probably I could just find some keyboard and install it, but i like when stock (included) keyb is "the one" ;)

one more- could You include terminal in next reliese? I've tried some from market, not all are as goog as for example the one which i have on my desire hd phone
[Acer Iconia A500] sanaell:
Terminal can be installed by yourself from the market, terminal emulator works perfectly

I rather prefer a "clean" rom, and we install things ourselves or having the kitchen sink to add up, but not directly in stock :D

that keep all better :D
[Acer Iconia A500] bpivk:
This! By the love of god this!

I use this rom as a base for my rom and I have to strip it even further of some Acer junk. So it's better to keep it stock. If you want those apps in your rom just add them to it. I did this with my apps. :)
[Acer Iconia A500] ms893:
For the wallpapers : after a reboot, it's working fine...

I have an update proposed for Google Music, but when I try to update it, but impossible. I noticed that the Google Music app version is 3.0 (instead of 3.0.1). Is it possible to make a patch (kitchen ?) with the latest version of Google Music ?
[Acer Iconia A500] bangejiaozi:
well , i tried 5 or 6 roms,and i think this one is the best ,at least for me.

i will test the 0.9.1 rom .

Hello

In the "Setup 3G Dongle for A500", what's that?

"USE RIL Restarter to restart ril-daemon whenever you plug-in the usb dongle."

Sorry by this question, I'm beginner !!!:mad:

[Acer Iconia A500] zambara:
You have an app on your tablet called "RIL restarter".You have to open it and enable ril daemon each time you connect the 3G dongle.

anione about the battery drain? Woke up today and after 8 hrs 60% went by, it's really an issue!
[Acer Iconia A500] maris__:
If you are using an A500, the most probable reason for a high battery drain in standby are activated cell phone drivers. You can deactivate cell phone drivers by adding ro.carrier=wifi-only to /system/build.prop. You can add this also by using the TabooTools. However, it might not work properly as some users reported that the TabooTools switch includes two-times the phrase "ro.carrier=wifi-only", which then cannot be properly recognized by the system.

Best regards, maris
[Acer Iconia A500] Diomorgan:
No way to fix the WIFI on latest version, even with Kernel 3.6 and static IP :-(

I'm wondering if the problem exist in the stock ROM too.

I'm googling a lot to find a clean ROOTED rom of 3.2 for A501 GEN1 (there's an A501 GEN2, don't know if it will make a mess with the 3G module...).

If someone knows where I can get it please let me know.

Thank you!

[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Damn good Vache. Damn good. Upgraded from 2.0 to 2.2. Pity you didn't have a full 2.2, and I had to do the updates after flashing 2.1 full, then 2.2 upgrade.

Wifi, check

GPS, check (one fc on maps, but ok now)

Internal 3g, check

Browser check

Apps check

Video check at HD

Camcorder check

foto check

So far, awesome.

All checks running Taboonay 2.2 with Thor 3.9 kernel.

Wish for a little more response on the gyro. Seems no change since 2.0. But, I have seen some bricked devices running the Acer Gyro calibration tool. Any alternatives? Just seems a little slow from portrait to landscape. Like 2 seconds lag.

Damn good my friend, damn good.
[Acer Iconia A500] zambara:
A stupid question here :

How do you make the Iconia Memory visible to your PC for files transfers ?
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
First, you have to have "root" If you don't, you won't see didley squat in your internal memory. Just the way it is, as internal memory is "locked out".

Second, typically after root, you will need something like Astro, EsExplorer, or Root Explorer.

Personally, I like all three and use them depending on what I have to do.

And your question, is not stupid. ;)

---------- Post added at 11:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:47 PM ----------

I'll give some backgound,

When you get your device, the manufacturer, doesn't want you messing around with the heart of android. Why, well, you can mess up things. Like delete system apps, core andriod apps. So they basically prevent you from doing this. I don't blame them. I'm sure you can understand.

But, what if you want to change things. To make things more customized to your liking?

To do this, you have to have this access to the heart of things, This is what "root" does. Allowing you to do things like remove certain apps, or installing a custom rom. Overclocking the processor, etc.

And without root, you will not be able to see the internal memory from your pc. Unless you use ADB. And that, is a story for another day....
[Acer Iconia A500] Diomorgan:
going to update, but log doesn't talk about wifi fixes :-(

Will let you know.
[Acer Iconia A500] zambara:
Thx for the comprehesive explanation !

I'm not quite that of a noob...but thx a lot anyway.

Back to my problem :

i know how to see my files from the tablet.

I don't know how to see my 32GB internal memory (in the Iconia) from my PC ( when i conect the Iconia to PC).

Hope i manage to make myself understable... :))
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
HA HA:D Thought you were trying to see them from the tab's File manager unrooted :D

Usually, when I plug in my tab, windows prompts me what to do. I select Open Device For Viewing Files, and I get both drives displayed. USB Debugging is off or on. You shouldn't have to do anything else as far as I know of.

I double checked mine, just to be sure.
[Acer Iconia A500] Caz666:
I know. I could not find any REAL proof to my claim. I just know that I tried MANY ROM/Kernel combos before I lucked out on this one. But everybody's new ROMs *should* include the "wifi fix". But the only time I had a stable connection at home and the office was with the original 3.01 ROM that came with my A500. And the rest of that ROM was pretty bad...

Taboonay alone (2.1 or 2.2) was worse...I would randomly lose WIFI and it would never come back by iteself. Airplane mode or a reboot would sometimes fix it (but not always). Lightspeed 1.05 worked better than most, but 1.06 gave me no end of wifi hell.

So I tried Taboonay again (2.2) and decided to start flashing kernels and the 2nd one I tried was RIchardTrip's...

Since that time (must be going on a week now), I have no wifi issues at all.

Before, it used to disconnect every hour for sure.

Did anyone else have any trouble installing this? In fact, I'm having troubles installing any custom ROM. I have a stock 3.0 ROM, rooted with IconiaRoot, then ran Acer Recovery Installer to get CMW. I tried flashing a few ROMs, and every time I hang after a reboot on the Acer logo. I thought maybe I needed to update to the latest CMW (thor2002ro version 1.5) but this didn't seem to change anything.

Everytime I boot into recovery, I follow the same steps: wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, install ZIP from SDCard, choose the ROM, it seems to install fine via CMW, and then when i choose to reboot I hang at the Acer screen again.

Any thoughts?:confused::confused::confused:
[Acer Iconia A500] qwertylesh:
how long are you waiting? give the tablet a good 5 - 7 minutes at the splash screen, boot takes longer after you've flashed on a rom.
[Acer Iconia A500] keredini:
No, I was waiting upwards of 20-30 minutes. I flashed a stock package from vache (Acer_A500_4.010.41_COM_GEN1) to get back up and running, I will probably mess around with it some more tonight and see what happens. I'm certainly no stranger to flashing, I've flashed my Captivate probably 100 times by now. :D
[Acer Iconia A500] qwertylesh:
ah ok, well I didnt know if you were a noob or not :P

so, your CWM flashing the full 2.1 package then the 2.2 update? :)

try the 2.1 full package on its own if you havent and see if it boots.
[Acer Iconia A500] keredini:
no worries, we were all noobs at one point :eek:

iirc, the latest full download package is 2.1, and then the update from 2.1 to 2.2 ... so yeah i was installing 2.1

i just restored to stock 3.1, rooted and installed acer recovery to get CMW, gonna give it another shot. will report back with updates. good thing i have lots of beer in the fridge.

UPDATE: Tried again, same thing...Maybe I'm an idiot. :D

thats really odd, yours is really new yeah? maybe its got revised hardware or something o_O
[Acer Iconia A500] cybermage1:
I installed 2.1 then installed the update without even leaving CWM. To get cwm I installed the acer recovery from the market and used it to install the cwm image from some other site... You know, that one with the horrible sideways scroll bar?

Is it possible your cwm is a different version and not compat with the roms?

[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Can't help you with the Linux system, but with win7, it looks like device drivers. Mine was already set up a long time ago for my HTC phone, but if I remember correctly, I installed an Android driver pack.

So you may want to search for some android drivers. Try this; (yeah, looks like some samsung site, strange but they seem to have the driver pack)

[Acer Iconia A500] CheopsChefren:
Have another problem with flashing the 2.2 update zip.

I have downloaded it, put it on my sd-card, and powered down my Iconia A500.

After restarting (vol+ + power button) I choose in CWM for instal zip from sd-card.

Here I choose for the update 2.2 zip, it starts updating, but it finishes in a second or less, and after rebooting i still have version 2.1 according to "about this tablet".

Ive tried everything, cleanned cache, davicalk cache, etc. etc., but every time the same happens.

When I try to do it with verification signed rom on, it gets one step further, but then it says i cant use the update, as its not signed, which is correct ofcourse.

What can I try more to get this to update from 2.1 to 2.2?

I am using CWM 5, can that be the cause of the problem?
[Acer Iconia A500] c-eling:
i used Acer Recovery Installer,it downloaded it and installed it for me,worked like a charm :)
[Acer Iconia A500] bhalbower:
Might be a corrupted download. It's a good Idea to check the zip before you flash it. Flashing a corrupted zip could brick your device. Did you try downloading it again?
[Acer Iconia A500] CheopsChefren:
I guess you are using the payed version of Acer Recovery Installer, as the free one downloaded from the Market doesnt have that possibility.
[Acer Iconia A500] bhalbower:
FYI: I purchased Acer Recovery Installer from the market and regret it. It works great, but they don’t update it very often. The updates are available on xdadevelopers way before they appear in the Acer Recovery Installer.
