[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] spyder560:
Anyone feel the same with their GT10.1? I feel like sometimes I really need to press on an icon to make it launch or swipe really hard to get it to move.

Is there a way to increase the sensitivity? Anyone else notice this too?

It's not a huge problem just a minor annoyance. It just doesn't seem snappy.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] TheBigSaxon:
I've noticed that about mine too. Nothing major but an annoyance nonetheless.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] snoopstah:
When I tried the Asus Transformer that's what I found, needed more pressure than I expected for it to register. My 10.1 seems fine, responds to very light touches nicely.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dannyboy22:
Is there a calibration setting somewhere?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Digital Man:
I find myself hitting everything twice. First time it doesn't register, next time I push harder. My XOOM screen is more sensitive. Guess I'm too used to that. This effects swiping in the browser too. Its hard to push gently to move a page up and down. I have to push harder and then every once in a while the page ends up scrolling at high speed all the way to the top or bottom.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] matthenry87:
It seems to me that I just need to get used to using the larger capacitive touch screen. When first using a smaller touch screen everyone begins to realize what part of their finger is actually touching the screen. I don't know if the screen is any more or less sensitive but I've been getting better at using this larger screen and noticing which part of my finger actually making contact and where.

Ill tell you 1 thing for sure, this thumb keyboard is amazing! I think I might actually like it better than swype! You can really type quick and the auto correct works very Well!

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Digital Man:
Here is some evidence that the sensitivity problems with the screen may be hardware/software related.

After a hard reset the screen appears to be very sensitive.

After an hour screen sensitivity seems to drop.

BUT there is something else going on - at the same time, after a hard reset my Targus capacitive stylus works normally on the Tabs screen.

At the time when the screen sensitivity seems to drop, the Targus stylus stops working. It can no longer be used to swipe the screen or scroll the browser. Finger swipe and scroll still works however.

Now why would the Targus stylus suddenly stop working, unless there is a real change in the capacitive sensitivity of the TAB 10.1 screen such that it falls below the threshold necessary to operate/detect the stylus?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] dbdynsty25:
The touchscreen on the Tab 10.1 definitely isn't as accurate or sensitive as the Xoom. I had both side by side for a few days before I returned my Xoom and you can definitely tell the difference.

However, I'll take the Galaxy's screen over the Xoom just from a contrast/color reproduction standpoint, so I guess there are pluses and minuses to everything.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] hagba:
Apparently Tegra 2 is not able to cope with all of the open tasks,live widgets,and have enough power left to make the immediate switch to a larger screem's touch commands.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] Digital Man:
I have a XOOM as well, and it handles multitasking just fine. There is no hesitation or lack of screen sensitivity at all. I pulled it out this morning and was amazed at how much smoother the user experience is. You tap once - the screen responds - on my GTAB 10.1 I have to conciously think about every click and half the time I still have to do it twice.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] rs125:
Anyone who can understand how to dump the ROM, the img Samsung, let me know. I need to understand how it works :)

Thanks in advance
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hummah:
I've cracked the screen on my Nexus S.

Can anyone recommend a repairer in the UK?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] MoNsTeReNeRgY22:
So all of the sudden, I cant click install when I am trying to install one of the apps that I have saved on my SGT. Its been working fine all day and it just all of the sudden stopped letting me hit install, I can hit cancel just fine though. I have made sure unknown sources is checked, I have rebooted several times, and I have even done a factory restore twice with still on luck. I am rooted, but it was working fine earlier so I am not sure what the problem is.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] MoNsTeReNeRgY22:
After doing alot of research I finally found the problem. I use an app called Screen Filter to dim my screen brightness when I am doing late night reading, and it was for some reason not letting me click the install button. Once i stopped using it, I could install apps with no problems. I have emailed the dev to see what he says. Might help some others so just letting everyone know.

About 2 months ago I bought an extended battery (Cameron Sino, 3000 mAH) from ebay. I was really badly surprised, because it doesn't work. I tryied everything, but e-ten keepsrunnig, like there's no battery.

Those batteries are made by part number and mine is scratched, i cannot read 3 numbers. Is part number really important? Or how to change it?

Thanks for answers.

Do you think it's possible to make it compatible with stock Acer?
[Acer Iconia A500] insanecatnip:
hdmi

Does anyone else have the issue of no hdmi out? I plug it in and it says hdmi connected, but displays nothing even after reboot
[Acer Iconia A500] _motley:
m-deejay, since this is based on the Acer kernel source that was leaked, what has been changed (or what are the issues) that is allowing it to only work with the ASUS base ROMs? You guys have been using the Acer stock kernel from HC 3.0.1 with the ASUS ROMs up to this point, so what am I missing here? I have a kernel built based on the Acer source that I am going to try to flash later tonight when I have some free time, however, I don't want to waste my time with this if there is something fundamental you have found keeping it from working. I see you reverted from Asus, to Acer and then back to Asus, so I am assuming you hit a wall somewhere, or at least had good reason to do this.

Glad to see a kernel posted for consumption, nice work. Iconia is growing and soon to be a well respected tegra 2 platform:)

Thx.
[Acer Iconia A500] ben.marks:
I think thats because mdj said virtuous already uses this kernel.

[Acer Iconia A500] Dexter_nlb:
throughout this morning i have been digging into my gps/bluetooth issue..

and i think the problems we got are bigger..

both my drivers used in the xoom kernel port, and this asus based one has the same problems with no gps working and bluetooth stopping after 20-30seconds to transmit..

i think we need to wait for a better source release and the one we got was helping but was totally buggy i would dare saying..
[Acer Iconia A500] thor2002ro:
sorry to say but gps works here great... don't know about Bluetooth...
[Acer Iconia A500] mdeejay:
works with asus based roms
[Acer Iconia A500] Dexter_nlb:
not in my test? how long did you wait for a lock?

If i use original 3.0.1 kernel on top, i get lock right away, and BT do not stop transmitting, so its 100% a kernel issue..
[Acer Iconia A500] thor2002ro:
instant lock... no wifi active....
[Acer Iconia A500] elia950:
i too had no problem with the gps with this kernel.. outside inless than 1 minute i was locked with more than 7 satellites...
[Acer Iconia A500] Dexter_nlb:
just weird im having all the problems atm.. but thanks anyways for the reports back, that can only help trouble shooting..
[Acer Iconia A500] beaups:
How do we actually use the overclock? I tried system tuner but cannot find any settings in there.
[Acer Iconia A500] thor2002ro:
only problem this kernel has is sometimes with wifi enabled when going to sleep it restarts...

but its an easy fix... put a wifi widget on desktop and turn it off before sleep ...
[Acer Iconia A500] henk_j:
Setcpu in the market
[Acer Iconia A500] anvandarnamn:
Could your problems maybe be related to your "power management patch" ?

gps locks faster than ever for me and im even getting a signal inside my house (not that strong though) :cool:
[Acer Iconia A500] thor2002ro:
power management patch has nothing to do with this... I have it too... its a firmware update for a chip that controls some power management stuff...

that is good to install on despite what firmware your on...
[Acer Iconia A500] Rhyr:
What about mkv implementation into the kernel?
[Acer Iconia A500] beaups:
Thanks but I'm reading it only sets to one core...true?
[Acer Iconia A500] Dexter_nlb:
cpu master seems to do the job, at least its code is prepared for 2 cpu's..

maybe just "pay" edition, but it works fine.

On my previous topic,

I went and installed vir. 1.0.7, and guess.

both kernels show GPS fine here.. so rest of my image must contain a bug somewhere, if its not the cust. kernel.. which i then need to figure out..

Hi m-deejay, are you going to migrate your kernels to 2.6.38.X or 2.6.39.x ?

they were supposed to bring significant improvement in terms of perf/multitasking.

I've just flashed this staying on the same sofa I was before and the wifi signal has been lost each ten seconds. Rolled back to Thor's kernel for Picasso 1.0.8
[Acer Iconia A500] thor2002ro:
looked through his source and he ported the new wifi driver wrong :D

edit: tip for m-deejay GPIO's are your friend ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] mdeejay:
all fine with wifi here...
[Acer Iconia A500] WishRyder:
Wifi seems to be working fine here as well (at least when tethered to my Thunderbolt).

Also...am I the only person getting insane smoothness out of this new kernel?

Honestly, my home screens and apps used to lag slightly (see also: choppy) under Stock, Unity V1, Unity V2, Angel, and Thor kernels at all speeds so it never quite felt as smooth as my buddy's Xoom. Unity V3 on the other hand is smooooooth and SetCPU even has it scaled down to 912mhz at the moment (battery is getting low).

I can now cross out the one last thing that the Xoom was holding over my Iconia. :cool:
[Acer Iconia A500] adancau:
I tried it, unfortunately it doesn't work. I get screen garbage on boot (after the acer logo, when the android logo would normally show up). Looks like a video driver problem.
[Acer Iconia A500] colin12345:
Thanks very much for letting me know. I think Richard's testing a new kernel so I'd better wait for that.
[Acer Iconia A500] monki-magic:
Hi,

Notice that asix.c was in the kernel source, just tried a asix device with the following

// Cables-to-Go USB Ethernet Adapter

USB_DEVICE(0x0b95, 0x772a)

any hints on what I can do\test to get assist in getting working. Logcat didn't show anything exciting.

I am thinking of buying a apple usb ethernet // Apple USB Ethernet Adapter USB_DEVICE(0x05ac, 0x1402) if I can't find a realtek device locally.

[Acer Iconia A500] vandr3ad:
just want to let you know about the wifi problem. im using virtuous picasso 1.0.8 acer base.

flashed this kernel a few hours back and encountered the wifi problem when connecting to my mobile hotspot. the tab can connect without problems to my home router (linksys) but cannot connect to my mobile hotspot. the hotspot im using is from huawei, the E5832. manually added the wifi connection but just keeps on looping on obtaining an ip address. after a few mins, it couldn't see the hotspot anymore and just keeps scanning.

went back to thor where im getting better stability especially when it comes to wifi connectivity. unity V2 which is the stock kernel for VP 1.0.8 (acer base) drops the wifi connection when it sleeps even with the disconnect policy turned to "never turn off". rebooting fixes it but after a few hours happens again. also got a few random reboots but it's only 2x within a 24hr period.

[UPDATE]: NVM, trying out the solution from aftertzf's post. This might not be a problem from the kernel. Also ran into the same problem with Thor Kernel.
[Acer Iconia A500] mdeejay:
Added V4 Beta to 3-rd post
[Acer Iconia A500] aftertzf:
Hey,

I'm not sure your Wifi problem is due to the kernel as such : there is an issue in the Android 3.1 stock rom that means you loop when getting IP address.

see this post : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1138905

The only 'fix' that i've seen right now is deleting the file below:

$ su
# cd /data/misc/dhcp
# rm dhcpd-wlan0.lease

If this does indeed come from a kernel issue and not the android OS itself, that would be very interesting . . . . .

Help with OC

Hi,

Maybe i'm being rather stupid here, but I can't work out how to overclock with this kernel (any of the unity kernels)

I'm new to Unix, but i've tried using terminal to change permissions, but using "CHMOD" gives me error, "read only file system" so I don't have access to the files to change the clock speed.

I'm probably doing something wrong, so I would really appreciate some help.

Otherwise I think this is a brilliant ROM (sorry Virtuous Galaxy), I much prefer it to the stock ACER
