3G was working on mine... but nearly nothing else. And as I did not have market access, it was difficult to even get a logcat.
[Acer Iconia A500] mrjay:
i went from scratch to flash this.

reverted to 3.0.1, wipe, rooted, CWM, flashed the ROM and i got some FC in browser and clear.fi. not sure why. i wiped again and it was the same. i replaced the update script with the one i got in the superuser.zip and everything works now.

i really have no idea what happened but i'm sorry guys.
[Acer Iconia A500] vax:
No problem!

Thank you for your work. Your next release will be easier to install anyway as CWM is installed on my a501 now.

I will give you some feedback when I have installed it. Not before tomorrow however...
[Acer Iconia A500] mrjay:
you can try also this and see if it works.

after flashing the ROM

flash the superuser zip from CWM
[Acer Iconia A500] vax:
I can flash this on my non-rooted stock ROM isn't it?
[Acer Iconia A500] mrjay:
yeap. as long as you flash it from CWM.
[Acer Iconia A500] vax:
Still does not work. Same problem!

I downgraded again, rooted, flashed, updates with superuser and still no luck.

I tried to make my own rooted rom but it doesn't flash. I don't know why...
[Acer Iconia A500] mrjay:
this sucks then.

at least i tried. sorry man.
[Acer Iconia A500] vax:
I finally managed to get the latest A501 rom with root. For this:

- I took the latest A501 ROM (Acer_A501_0.000.00_4.037.01_EMEA)

- I applied the steps to insert su into the update.zip (copy su, remove bootloader, edit update-script) directly in the zip using 7zip

- I downgraded, rooted, installes CWM, flashed my zip, wiped caches etc.

- I installed SuperUser from the market

That's it!

Now i reinstalled acer recovery to reinstall CWM (which was overwritten) and everything seems to be ok.

YES!
[Acer Iconia A500] mrjay:
glad it worked for you.
[Acer Iconia A500] xd4d3v:
Can you post your rom vax?
[Acer Iconia A500] vax:
I'll try to do it this evening... But I'm not used to this kind of post!

Can I upload it to megaupload and post the link or is there an "official" way of doing it?
[Acer Iconia A500] mrjay:
i did the same thing for a different version.

the one i posted in the first post.

it's the official Acer_A501_1.309.02_4.031.24_COM_GEN1

and i added the update script from the superuser zip.

http://www.multiupload.com/HBNZ8UPMMD
[Acer Iconia A500] vax:
My ROM is here : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZNZ1L5WB

Working for me... But don't forget to install SuperUser from the market!
[Acer Iconia A500] vax:
The difference with my rom are:

- the version of su - I used 3.0.3 because there seemed to be a problem with 3.0.7

- the updater-script - I started with the script from the ROM and added/deleted the relevant lines.

The updater script for A501 is more complex than the one for the A500 : there's a whole section about flashing the 3G firmware and the required libs.

The best would be to modify the script a little further to remove the flashing of the bootloader. It should not be very complicated but my first try did not work : CWM did not want to flaseh the resulting zip.

Any suggestion is welcome.
[Acer Iconia A500] galapogos01:
Would you consider doing it for a GEN1 ROM? I tried another "stock" ROM on the forums and it isn't actually stock at all.
[Acer Iconia A500] vax:
Why not... but it is quite simple. Did you try it yourself?
[Acer Iconia A500] khangozzy:
Is this ROM use stock kernel? Support NTFS or not?

Tks?
[Acer Iconia A500] AcerA501-User:
Hello,

Updates OTA ? Does it work?
[Acer Iconia A500] vax:
Yes, it's the stock kernel. But you can flash another kernel after installation. I did not test NTFS.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhuhang:
Hello everyone,

I want to know how to update CM7 to latest nightlies without waiting devs to make an update to the ROM.

Im using GingerDX.

Is it just flashing the cm7 zip in CWM? Which file to download from official CM7 site.

Any idea is welcome. :D
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rav3n_pl:
http://cm-nightlies.appspot.com/?device=shakira

Install only rom, not kernel.

Use one of FXP028 FXP030 or stable CM71 kernel.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhuhang:
Means i download the nightly zip and flash in cwm, thats all?

Why need to flash kernal?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rycon33:

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tim_Grundy:

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhuhang:
Can u explain? I dont want any kernal, i just want CM7 nightlies. Im using stock kernal.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhuhang:
Only those kernals work? Im using stock kernal.

How to install the rom? flash using cwm?
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rycon33:
Custom kernels works only with unlock bootloader.

CM7 rom doesn't work on stock kernel. Only on custom kernel.

If your bootloader is unlock, the best kernel for CM7 right now is either nAa's kernel or fxp028/030 as mentioned previously.

But cam is vga only and fm radio doesn't work yet on CM rom.

If you still want to try CM rom, flash kernel i mentioned and install CM update zip in CWM.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhuhang:
Im using stock kernal and im using CM7 rom. In other words, i want to update cm7 like the developer.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zhuhang:
Does this means i have to use cm7 hero nightlies instead of shakira?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Romy1991:
Hi everyone,

I'm hoping someone can help me. I've got my mobile for just a little more then one week now. Today I updated my mobile (it's not rooted or anything). I updated to (I'm Dutch so I don't know the English words) :

Android version: 2.3.4

'Smalbandversie': 8x55A-AAABQOAZM-203028D-56

'Kernel-versie': 2.6.32.9-perf / SEMCUser@SEMCHost #1

Build-number: 4.0.2.A.0.42

There where no complications while updating. But after updating I experienced problems with the auto-brightness from the SE Xperia Arc. It's not working anymore. I did enjoy this feature. I searched for apps in the market and found some (like widgetsoid) but those were not working. My screen is not automatically brighter or less brighter when there is a lot of light or no light. What happened to this feature and can I get it back?

Thanks a Lot!

Hey Everyone,

Thought I would start a car charger thread.

I picked up one of these at Walmart the other day:

http://store.griffintechnology.com/smartphone/powerjolt-dual-universal-micro

And it works quite wonderfully. It's tiny, and even with bluetooth/GPS/Navigation running, it was slowly charging the battery. And it charges it quite quick if you don't have nav running.

It can be a bit annoying to pull out once stuck in, although you probably don't need to do that very often.

Glad to hear though that it charges even while using GPS.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Goodm7sn:
what is the exact output of each USB of this Griffen car charger ?

i have a JABRA charger (comes with JABRA Cruiser) and it doesnt seem to charge my GN while GPS navigation is on :( (even though its saying charging on the battery icon)

it used to work perfectly on my HTC Desire HD (with GPS+Bluetooth+WIFI ON )

any recommendation on how to fix this please ? like a reference output current that is enough to charge the GN while navigating ?

thanks.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] ChodTheWacko:
The Griffen claims 1A per USB port, and I believe it.

Online reviews say some users with other phones need to mod the Griffen to charge their phone, otherwise it only supplies 100mA. Some crack open/mod the Griffen to short two terminals to get the full charging ability, and/or use a 'charging cable' which shorts the terminals within the cable.

As a reminder, the Griffen seems to charge the Note full blast, but perhaps something similar is needed for the Jabra. I suggest installing 'Currentwidget' to see what sort of charge you are getting.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Goodm7sn:
Thank you for the reply.

I have battery monitor widget installed & it shows charging via usb when i connect it to jabra charger, but the weird thing is that the galaxy note starts mtp mode once i connect it!

Could it be the cable? Or shall i just take the griffin charger to solve this?

By the way,griffin charger works out of the box out do i have to solder modify it?

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] tdodd:
I just bought this dual port 2.1A + 1A charger on eBay for £2.49 inclusive and delivered the following day....

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-1A-Dual...neChargers&hash=item19ca66b4df#ht_2865wt_1163

At first it seemed the phone was only drawing a "USB" level of current, so I was all set to rip it apart and solder the centre pins to force AC charging, but when I double checked with a dry run and a temporary short the phone switched to AC charging. Now it seems to be continuing to draw "AC" levels, so maybe I had a poor contact initially and a few (un)plugging operations have made the contacts more reliable. I'll try it out later today with satnav running and see if it keeps up with the pace and report back.

EDIT : Charge level draining like water out of a sieve with this thing whilst running satnav, and the phone said it was "AC" charging too. Switching ports didn't help. :(

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Zingel1986:
There will be a problem porting CM9 to Samsung Galaxy Note.

The S-Pen uses a special way for input. So you can´t use it on normal capacitive Displays (I tried at sgs2)

The input method is closed source I think and so there will be hard work to get it running.

I think if the first CM9 will be available for Note there will be no support for S-Pen and probably there won´t be any support ever.

There are not enough device on market using this technology. Does anybody know if support for HTC Flyer was added? I don´t think so.

Unless S-Pen support is not very important in my opinion I only use it in some cases.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] straxusii:
I don't use the spen, as I'm sure a lot of note users don't.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] miko3d:
guys what are you talking about?

spreading false rumours is not good

as far as ICS we can tell it supports Pen technology natively,wether its Ntrig (Htc Flyer,Lenovo),Wacom(Samsung Note) or both we will have to see.

By the way ,for me and many the Wacom Pen is one of the main reasons to get this phone.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] ph00ny:

As "noted" on another thread, it is slow going for the ICS port right now. Samsung has tweaked some of the base code and made it difficult to get certain features working correctly.

It may be awhile before we see a stable, feature complete release for the note.

I think there will never be CM9 version of GNote :

Samsung said that the GNote spen will not be supported directly by ICS cause it's not just a pen. Button etc...

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] PickleHead:
The button is not a "proprietary feature" or anything. It's a standard piece of the standard wacom tech. My wacon penabled pen from my tablet pc works on the note with the button AND the eraser end (which the spen doesn't even have).

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] huzz:
Samsung has already confirmed that ICS will be coming to the Note. Don't know why people are so freaked out over CM9.

I support teamhacksung fully but its not going to turn your note into a portable car. I am coming from the S2 and the almost stable version of CM7 wasn't worth shifting from the Samsung firmware for me.

ICS by Samsung for the note will come and it will be worth it. Samsung's firmware is brilliant. Touchwiz is fine and if it isn't use another launcher.

It isn't earth shattering get over it.

Cheers.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] macwilson:
For those who think the S-pen is superfluous, it's actually a standard TabletPC Wacom pen-enbled. All TabletPC (pen-enabled not bamboo, or Intuous, etc) work on it, with button support.

I'm not sure why Samsung doesn't tout this as a Wacom interface and decided to call it an S-pen, which has a 'hack' ring to it, but this is rather surprising and is a first for Wacom. I imagine this will be a feature that we will see more and more now that Wacom has moved into this arena.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] macwilson:
All my Tabletpc pens and buttons work on it. That good enough? :D

Actually, it was a bit of a surprise. Wacom is notorious for slightly changing specs, the result being, pens from one tablet (which there are many) don't work on another. The fact this is definitely a standardized Tabletpc digitizer in a phone is ...well unusual. But Wacom tabletpc tech is very standardized. This is the key point. If i'm not mistaken, once word gets out that this is the case here, there may be some interest from developers.

We shall see.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] brycestejskal:
