What is the function of sms/mms app on the wifi only iconia?

[Acer Iconia A500] apmxe:
The update speed is amazing,2 days 8 version.Thanks for the hard work! But why the default frequence virtuous series is 1.2Ghz ? The battery life would be shorter than 1.0Ghz.I wonder how much is the difference?Has anyone made a comparition?
[Acer Iconia A500] MJ-12:
Hi md,

Is there any way you can add the galaxy keyboard to this rom, or can I extract it myself from galaxy and add it, also any elements of touchwiz, that would basically give us 3.2 galaxy even before galaxy write it lol.

Update: tried extracting galaxy keyboard, looks like it is going to install then fails :(
[Acer Iconia A500] apple_hd:
thanks for all your hard work mdj
[Acer Iconia A500] apple_hd:
you can adjust it by oc apps, like setcpu

Report Some Errors in the rom of 1.1.0

I found some bugs in the latest version which was listed below:

1. the top status bar in the applications often change into other shape.

2. some of the input softwares can not run, often FC.(such as Sougou Input).

3. the market cannot download some apps. (still buffering but not downloading).

Hi! Yesterday I try to install the ROM on my A501, the SIM card is not seen.

I hope in a compatible upgrade for my new TAB!

Thanks!

I resolved by copy this wpa_supplicant (link www_yota_it/wpa_supplicant ) in the zipped ROM before flashing it
[Acer Iconia A500] Screwbal:
dont know if its been mentioned yet but anyone else hardware screen lock button not work with this rom? Known issue/bug/or just me?
[Acer Iconia A500] splatoid:
Thanks for all the hard work on these. This will be my first time flashing my Acer. I have been reading on this forum for nearly a month and would not start anything till i understood it better.

It finally started clicking into place last night and I'm going to use this Rom.

My only question I have left is when you post updates I don't see any links to

them. Are they loaded in the original ROM on the front page or is there a place to go and get the updates.

Thanks again for your contribution to these tablets.

I think it is amazing what you DEV,s do and way above my head.

But I'm learning at least how to use them.:D

Email in v1.10 is not working and FC's when clicking it. Rebooted and still doesnt work. It worked in all previous versions.
[Acer Iconia A500] albert_betet:
too bad still can't copy to sdcard or usb Flashdrive on v1.1 or the next one(v 1.1.1) :(

is it related to xoom internal hardware or just the system permission on HC 3.2?

other than that issue,I think this is the snappiest rom right now,even better than virtous galaxy ;)

edit:

-found this issue :

when I use ES, sometime I can't choose the option to open the file(example: movie file with es movie player,gallery, or mobo--or other kind of file) and the screen just dim out(no freezing). I just can't open the file through ES, there is no more option of app
[Acer Iconia A500] mdeejay:
works fine here ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] flipper2006:
did you load 1.10 ontop of 1.07 without wiping? I havent wiped since 1.04 and didnt have a problem but as soon as I lick on email it FC's. It's no biggie for me because i can wipe and reinstall when 1.11 comes out and try it again. The battery doesnt seem that great with this one, and i wiped battery stats before the last full load at 100%.
[Acer Iconia A500] thunderkiss65:
Thanks to m-deejay xoom is my daily rom, I waited for Acers 3.1 update and never received it, Acer has to be one of the slowest on getting updates across
[Acer Iconia A500] splatoid:
Well after alot of pestering I got XooM on my Tablet and I must say it works perfect. I have everything working like it should.

I was a bit nerves with all the posts about Wifi problems and Sd Card problems and I have none of these problems Wifi connected first thing download from market works tether to my droid phone works email works NTFS works.

I didn't even lose root. Which I thought was strange but I will take it.

Thanks for this build very nice. Will report back in a few days.

So, how does one disable the cell standby on this thing? It's eating on the battery completely unnecessarily.

Use titanium backup and freeze or uninstall and should help your battery
[Acer Iconia A500] chr0m:
I am not seeing cell standby on this rom.
[Acer Iconia A500] flipper2006:
just a short update. I rebooted again because i started having trouble with a bunch of apps (news360, amazon, etc) when i rebooted, Email lost it's settings (exchange) and redid it and it and everything else is working correctly again. So maybe you need to do a full system wipe before loading 1.0 (or something else changed that caused it). But AOK now.

yes, but minor issue
[Acer Iconia A500] :
Not for me lol :eek:
[Acer Iconia A500] :
Keyboard is wonky as h3ll. Just an observation, but maybe the DEVs are working on too many ROMs at once? :confused:

Edit: the youtube 720p playback is absolutely the best of all the ROMs to date. Could be that the 3.2 release finally got it right, or deejay did some serious tweaking.

Edit 2: Movie playback volume is as low as all the VP releases, not nearly as loud as any stock rom. Just an observation. ;)

Running the latest version and did a wipe twice...i have some wifi issues..

this time: sleeping policy.

Very nice ....Finley this tablet is just getting to its potential.
[Acer Iconia A500] rchrdcrg:
@Brunsbanjo: Did you check the settings under Wi-Fi Sleep Policy? It's right there under Wi-Fi in the standard Settings area, and there are options for putting the wifi to sleep along with the screen or not at all.
[Acer Iconia A500] UnicornKaz:
When I use the stock rom and start the "clear.fi" program... that's what showed up on my list and also in the bottom right corner popup menu...

go into the clear.fi and turn off the media server button or kill it in the application menu makes it go away...

Not sure if that will help... just sharing info ;)

Is anyone else having an issue with the rotate lock not working on 1.1.0? My kid was playing with the tablet after I did the upgrade and I don't know if I tried the lock prior to my kid playing with it. Just want to know if it was the update or if it was my kid.

Hello

I confirm problem with mail aplication (FC or aplication doesn't response for click). Asus E-mail gives FC error too. I flashed 1.1.0 over 1.0.7 which was flashed 1.0.5. It was done without wiping.

Question for guys who don't experience this problem. Did you wipe before flashing 1.1.0 ?

I also checked Quadrant and AnTuTu score for this rom and found that it is 5-10 percent lower than on Virtuos Picasso.

Anyway it is smoothest rom my A500 has ever seen. I love it. Keep up your good work. Thanks.
[Acer Iconia A500] EVEALEX62:
I flashed all ROM 1.0.1 to 1.1.0 and when this is not an update I will do a Full Wipe (data, cache, batterie and davlik)
[Acer Iconia A500] jpaddock:
I tried doing a search for this, but the search was in its maintenance window. I understand it's a Xoom port, but I guess I don't understand why the hardware is limited. From my understanding, the Xoom hasn't activated the full size USB port, but yet it works just fine with this rom. Maybe the Xoom will have it activated when they release 3.2, but that was a main reason for me not getting the Xoom. Also, I would think it would be possible to add in support for the rotation switch.
[Acer Iconia A500] cafe.soy.latte:
+1 please support rotation lock.
[Acer Iconia A500] ms893:
hi,

Is it possible to add latest Lumiread app please?

Or may be make a kitchen to create zip for removed apps + also themes for buttons (back, home,...) using the asus, galaxy, acer buttons?

Thanks...
[Acer Iconia A500] jm77:
You'll note that the kernel is not a standard Xoom kernel. The USB host function is part of the kernel stack, which is obviously not Motorola-supplied.

That's a function of the ROM (higher-level stack) and not the kernel.

For now, I suppose it will have to suffice holding the thing in one position or switch ROMs.

Do you know why i cannot install apps with market? :confused:

This happened to me. The only way round it for me was to install the rom from fresh not a nand restore.

Hope this helps.

You can extract any app you want from the relevent rom.

Unzip the rom on your pc go to apps folder they are all there :-)

If it is the SAME rom you are updating on your tab you just flash it.

[Acer Iconia A500] WereCatf:
I'm seeing a lot higher battery consumption on this one than on the stock ROM. Earlier I could leave the tab on sleep with WIFI on while I was sleeping and I'd lose at most 10% of battery, but now I lost almost 40% during just one night. That's quite a difference.
[Acer Iconia A500] MJ-12:
Yes it is abit harder on the battery, but worth it.

m-meejay, is it possible to add the Samsung Weather and digital clock widgets? Of at least an add on with them? I've tried many thing to make them work but without success!
[Acer Iconia A500] :
'Fancy widgets" is free at the market place, and is a great weather/clock widget ;)

[Acer Iconia A500] mdeejay:
Updated screenshots :D
[Acer Iconia A500] :
Some apps you cannot merely "install" from other ROMs. Some you need to extract from the relevant ROM, then inject into your ROM before install. Like "browser.apk" from VP 1.10 so you don't have to add UA string to get desktop mode everytime you use it. Not all apps are that easy!!! ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] OrionBG:
Have you user Fancy widgets in Honeycomb? I have and it look REALLY ugly! Fancy Widgets is made Only for 240pi screens and on anything else it looks very bad!

So Is it possible to port the two Samsung widgets?
[Acer Iconia A500] :
No clearfi app in this ROM lol, but thanks anyway! ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] WereCatf:
Why don't you instead get one of the other ebook readers from Market? Lumiread is terribly slow so I spent a while trying out all the other ebook readers there and so far I like Aldiko and Mantano Reader the best, both support metadata, give a nice overview of all the books you've got and they're also both much faster than Lumiread.
[Acer Iconia A500] :
Actually I use Fancy Widgets for my weather/clock app, and it looks great on mine. I have no idea what you're talking about?!? :confused:
[Acer Iconia A500] :
1) Keyboard sounds are back (although volume on keyboard is very low even when all volumes in settings are turned up to the Max).......Thank you!

2) I injected the browser from VP 1.10 into this ROM before install, and now have "desktop mode" as standard. (no need to set UA string)

3) I injected all audio from VP 1.10 (ringtones, notifications, alarms, etc.), and now have my favorite sounds in this ROM.

Will play with this awhile before making it my daily driver, but so far all appears great. Once again great job deejay! :D
[Acer Iconia A500] Tessa33a:
only with rootexplore??? no with other explorer?? type filemanager etc? ?
[Acer Iconia A500] WereCatf:
Permissions on /mnt/external1 (SDHC card) are wrong. It's mounted with fmask=702 and dmask=702 which prevents many applications from writing on it, they only have read access. Could you modify the scripts for it to always be mounted 000? I also wonder if the guid is correct since, well, there is no group id 1023 at all.
[Acer Iconia A500] WereCatf:
Yeah, it's because the permissions on it are wrong. I just fixed it on my tablet by starting Better Terminal Emulator Pro, becoming root and doing:

umount /mnt/external1
mount /dev/block/vold/179:33 /mnt/external1 -t vfat -o rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,uid=1000,gid=1000,fmask=000,dmask=000

Now it's working as it should in all applications.
[Acer Iconia A500] Tessa33a:
ok werecaft, now works with any browser?

without doing anything special? or I have to use the console to mount the sd? I'm not sure if I understand you
[Acer Iconia A500] Attilein:
@WereCatf

I like those honey comb book readers - all other I tried allready - I dont dont know why this Samsung reader make not my german ö ä ü letters - with calibre never I had problems

I will try now this explaining with injektion
[Acer Iconia A500] OrionBG:
I talking about really small graphics, some of the text not appearing where it should, the flip clock looking ugly and so on! It is just not made for 160DPI. I've seen this behavior on all devices that are not at 240DPI. If you tell me at least one screenshot program that works on honeycomb (and it's free) I'll make so screeshots to show you exactly what I mean!
[Acer Iconia A500] WereCatf:
Yes, it works in all applications.

But uhh, if you don't know what you're doing then I really suggest you NOT to do it. You could break something if you type wrong things as root.. I mostly just posted that for the people who are more comfortable around the terminal and for the OP so that he could fix the wrong permissions issue. It's a really small thing, the SD card is just mounted with wrong permissions and gid, and having write access on the SD card is quite important, so I'm hoping he gets around to doing 1.1.2 version soon.

exchange mail setup

I keep getting "activation failed. Unable to connect to network. Try again with network provider's default APN." any ideas?

i assume the program thinks the device is a mobile device and wants it to be connected to the network. shouldn't it work over wifi just fine though?
[Acer Iconia A500] :
I still had my screenshot saved from when I was using "fancy widgets" on my VG ROM (had screenshot button on homescreen). I've attached it showing fancy widget weather. It looks fine to me?!? :confused:
[Acer Iconia A500] :
The VG ROM is the only one I've used that keeps screen ripping in browser to a bare minimum. Not sure how Samsung did it, but I'd certainly be happy if someone figured out how to implement it in other ROMs. ;)

Вы можете добавить арабский язык, пожалуйста :)
[Acer Iconia A500] OrionBG:
Now put it to a smartphone that have a 240dpi screen and you will see how it should look like! The main problem is that the whether images are too small, the text is misplaced and too small, there is much space between the different parts of the widget and so on. This is NOT it is supposed to look like! But lets finish this pointless discussion!

My question still remains!

Can the Samsung digital clock and weather widgets be ported to this ROM of not?
[Acer Iconia A500] dennydb:
default browser still not keep "Desktop user agent" !

Is there a way TO fix it?
[Acer Iconia A500] :
Tell ya what...hop to it! Get to programming and let us all know how you ported them over, and then we'll all be able to use them!

Thank you in advance for your skills and time! ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] :
Before installing rom, extract "browser.apk" from VP 1.1.0, then inject "browser.apk" from VP 1.1.0 into VX 1.1.1, then install the ROM.

In browser "settings", "advanced" , "viewing mode", "desktop" (it keeps the settings).

No more need for "about:debug", "set UA String" ;)

Same here, I think a lot of ppl are merely doing upgrades, and not a wipe, format, then install. Most problems are gone if you start completely fresh. ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] flipper2006:
Has anyone figured out how to use any of the LCD Density type apps with HC? No matter what you change if you use a app or buildprop it doesnt matter. It would so cool to make the screen smaller with smaller density (and gain more space) Think of News360, or CNN or Pulse on a even larger screen.

Apart from that after a day of working on 1.1.1 it seems fine
[Acer Iconia A500] bahurd:
Since 1.0.5 I have only upgraded not any wipe/format. Have had no issues whatsoever.

But, on the first install of this ROM I did the full install. Important to do that on first install for sure.
