Is there any way of configuring the touch sensitivity under ICS? Iv noticed that when using high resolution the pad is oversensitive on sideways motion.

What i mean is if you even remotely (1-2mm) move your finger up or sideways when trying to "click" something it ends up in a limbo where it isnt enough motion to considder it a swipe but enough to ignore it as a click. This results in taps quite often not doing anything.

Usb Charging ..

Guys,

Anyone have a file to flash so the PC usb charging works on the ICS 4.0.3 build.

Does not charge just stops the device from losing charge.

Have checked this over an extensive period and have confirmed the power does not drain however it does not increase.

N.B Cannot use mains usb at all ..any fix?

Cheers in advance
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] jamezracer:
I think the best you are going to get from usb is just that. Usb is only rated to provide 500ma which on a big-screened tablet is roughly what it draws with the screen on. Hence Huawei included a 2A charger.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] monkeydrufy:
This function should be added on a kernel (like galaxy S2 and touchmove)

We have to wait that someone start to develop or hope that the next ics rev would be better
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Xermalk:
Damn, to bad.

Lets hope the Google devs realize that with the multitude of different touch panels and resolutions having options for the sensetivity is a must.

That other competitor that should not be named doesn't have the same issue due to a mutch smaller list of devices.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Serial_Bus#USB_3.0

"Battery Charging Specification 1.2[9]: Released in December 2010.

Several changes and increasing limits including allowing 1.5A on charging ports for unconfigured devices, allowing High Speed communication while having a current up to 1.5A and allowing a maximum current of 5A."
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] jamezracer:
1) that's USB 3.0, I am fairly certain our tablets are still 2.0

2) yes you can pump more current through any USB cable but it is normally done by manufacturers having an indicator such as putting a resistor across two or three pins on the model-specific charger to queue the device to draw more. This is typically done in hardware, not software. To the best of my knowledge that is. This is why you may find USB chargers not compatible with other brands. Our separate DC charger indicates to me no intention to allow the customer to use USB too.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] kamelot.sk:
I don't have app compatibility option availabe on my mediapad. It' feature of Honeycomb 3.2 and newer. Does anyone have this option?

It sholud look like X made of four arrows (most left on picture)

​
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] ssjin4mer:
Because it charges very slow, you can turn off all radios and the screen and it will charge it eventually but again, just very slow.

I think it took me all night to fully charge using USB only. There is no indication (lightning bolt) it's charging but it definitely charges. If you turn it off, it will charge faster.

Tablet mapping software

Android since G1. Just got Springboard for use with my photography projects.

I have never gotten a good answer or any come to think of it re:

Is there any way while using Google maps or any Android mapping software

to: while driving and seeing a sight I want to photograph later just touch the screen and have it save the location for future recall?

I guess I could just have the tablet take a snap with the location info tagged in

but is there any more elegant solution out there? If the nav software is running I would have to exit out and open the camera which eventually is going to get me killed...especially driving in NJ.:confused:

I ended up just buying the USB/male plug adapter for the Springboard. Plug it into a flush mounted (in cigar lighter) USB and it looks and works fine. As an ex-laptop repair guy, I'm just waiting for the power port to break it's solder points when the male end get a little too much pressure on it.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] bart594:
Hi,

Sorry for the late reply

It works Im running it currently but its for Honeycomb not ICS !

And you need SetCPU (or some similar app) to set desired max speed. Default value is still 1,2 Ghz...

The kernel is hex edited and not compiled from the source so you don't see any extra information
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] stinger32:
So what options do you have with SetCPU if default value is 1,2ghz? have you ran any bench that shows any better results?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] stinger32:
Can any1 upload the 016,020,hybrid version or point to some other sites than netload and megashare that sucks? the avalible sites has less than 15kb/s download speed.

[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] bart594:
You just need to select max frequency Thats all..

And no i didn't run any benches but the webpages loading faster and system is snappier so im fine with it
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] stinger32:
Well now the whole day has passed by and I havent got the file yet. that sucks.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Xermalk:
So you cant downgrade a mediapad from ics 4.0.3 -> 3.2? I semibricked when downgrading through fastboot with

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash cache cache.img.ext4

fastboot flash cust cust.img.ext4

fastboot flash logo logo.img

fastboot flash modem_st1 modem_st1.mbn

fastboot flash modem_st2 modem_st2.mbn

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash rpm rpm.mbn

fastboot flash sbl1 sbl1.mbn

fastboot flash sbl2 sbl2.mbn

fastboot flash sbl3 sbl3.mbn

fastboot flash system system.img.ext4

fastboot flash tombstones tombstones.img.ext4

fastboot flash tz tz.mbn

fastboot flash userdata userdata.img.ext4

fastboot reboot

The device booted up but every time you unlocked it it crashed.

To fix it i had to reflash ics 4.0.3 using the same commands as it would not flash from sdcard.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] stinger32:
So what you mean is that it isnt possible to downgrade from 4.0 to 3.2 without trouble?

I finally managed to domnload the file.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] ck007:
I downgraded my device without problems. I didn't use fastboot method, I used dload folder method. I switched from ics to honeycomb hybrid version.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] sharonsym:
me too... downgraded from ICS 4.0.3 back to HC 3.2 B016 without problem using dload folder.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] stinger32:
and what about Root?

Problem solved, and the kernel works good.

Stock bench

quadrant=2600

Antutu=6571
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Xermalk:
Interresting, i just tried downgrading through the dload folder right now and my mediapad still ends up wierd.

Rebooting itself every time you unlock it after the first time. (First time it runs the setup with green text messages then reboots itself)

Going to have to upgrade back to ics again.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] stinger32:
same here went from 4.03 to the hybrid rom.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] shiranmotha:
This is available on ICS ROM
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Klaus.at:
You do remove the SD card with the dload folder on it, when the screen says to do it? Otherwise you could end up with the device flashing the firmware again and again.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Xermalk:
ofc, the issue is after youv flashed and the the device has booted up once to restor sn/other stuff.

After that it reboots every time it reaches the lockscreen.

However iv just given up on 3.2 and im now running ics again.

To bad the oc kernel dosnt work there though.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] shiranmotha:
I downgraded backto 3.2 from ICS. Use te stock update.zip first. That will fix everything.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] cmstlist:
Can anyone confirm whether or not the T-Mobile Springboard supports 1900 MHz 3G? Even better if you tested it with an AT&T SIM card. I remember seeing it somewhere but I can't find it anymore.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Xermalk:
Just tried using HUAWEI_S7-301u_FIRMWARE_android3.2_C232B016_General_VersionForUser_05010SJR.zip

According to gsmarena,

2G Network	GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900,

3G Network	HSDPA 850 / 1700 / 2100
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] cmstlist:
GSMarena is known for having lousy specs. I'm looking for evidence more solid than that. If it were true though, 850-only would be preferable to 1900-only. I'm thinking of importing one up north to use with my Bell SIM and 850-only is perfectly sufficient for their network. 1900-only works in major urban centres.

Ah wait, here we go. Found a photo of the back of the Springboard and the FCC ID is QISS7-303U. That leads us here:

https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas...me=N&application_id=218342&fcc_id='QISS7-303U

The test report says:

"The HSPA+/HSDPA/HSUPA/UMTS frequency band is Band I, Band II, Band IV."

That means the bands are AWS, 1900 and 2100. So GSMArena is wrong.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] tedbone:
Speaking of 2G & 3G - does anyone have any suggestions on how to get T-mobile 4G back on a MediaPad (that once was a SpringBoard)? Do we need the actual T-Mobile firmware?

Getting that is highly unlikely, right?

I just hate paying for 4G speeds and not getting it.

Hmmm...been doing some research - I can finally download/install Cisco Jabber (integrates with my company's Cisco Calling network), but I think my tablet is locked to not allow even internet calling due to me not being able to set up Jabber.

During my research i came across IMEI unlocking - could the table be locked from accessing 4G unless the T-Mo firmware is installed?

So, could unlocking the IMEI have anything to do with it?

Is it good to just go ahead and unlock it anyways? Would that allow my current T-Mo SIM to make phone calls?

BTW my tablet is rooted.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] broken_symlink:
I gave it a try and put my att sim in my springboard. When I booted it up it asked me for a sim network unlock pin, which I don't have. Maybe I'll call tmobile later and see if I can get this unlocked. I bought this tablet outright and use a prepaid plan.

In my past experience with tmobile, after having a contract with them for a certain amount of time, they would unlock your phone for free if you asked.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] cmstlist:
Does the original box list any bands on it?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] tedbone:
When I'm near my box I'll look that up for you.

---------- Post added at 02:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:00 PM ----------

Yes, I heard that about t-mo too. It could save me $30-40 to unlock it. I bout mine outright as well, but was still on contract (I was so unhappy with the G-Slate that I was willing to buy a new tablet outright).

I talked to a friend (who's a smartphone "semi-guru") about IMEI, and he thinks that the 4G might be a line of code in the firmware that I'm running; therefor unlocking the IMEI would probably not be the path for me to get 4G back. Does that sound right to any of you experts?

Hi,

Sorry, but I am an idiot-noob.

I just received my Mediapad and was wondering where I could download the b020 ROM.

Also, because I am an idiot-noob and have never rooted anything before, I was wondering if you would be kind enough to guide me through how you installed your b020 ROM with B12 cust.img?

You seem to have a good setup and I want mine to work like yours :-)

I have adb and fastboot and am currently on b10.

For anyone interested in the newly released at&t version:

I purchased it from eBay two days ago and was able to flash the leaked ICS.

It is working fine on AT&T and i can make and receive calls.

The device is locked to at&t though so you can only use it with an at&t SIM.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] cmstlist:
How much did it cost on eBay? How much is AT&T charging for it?
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] clubtech:
I am not sure how much AT&T is charging for it as it is only available to business customers and it is not listed on their website but you can find it being sold online for about $419.

These guys have shipped it to me in one day:

http://www.alwayslowest.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=shop.dspSpecs&part=43122877

I think this tablet is better than the Samsung 7+ due to the higher resolution and screen sharpness (and of course the leaked ICS and stock like experience).

Now i just need to find a place who will unlock the device so i can use it when i travel. i am sure at&t won't do it.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] cmstlist:
Let me know if you find said place. I have a SIM with a grandfathered unlimited HSPA+ data plan on the Bell Canada network (same frequencies as AT&T). It's perfect for a tablet but I just need my perfect tablet :)

Some sounds seem to go through the speakers like when changing volume, however when playing a video sound goes through the headphones.

Also muting the volume still leaves the camera click sound playing att full.

If so, now that it's unlocked, do you have a SIM you can use to test if it supports 3G on 1900 MHz (presumably AT&T if they use PCS in your area)?

[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] tedbone:
Crap! I copied the lib folder to my sdcard. Put it back in my MediaPad and tried to copy/paste it over to the system/lib folder. The device hung for 15min, so I tried to reboot. My MediaPad got stuck in a boot-up loop until I reinserted the firmware root "dload" folder and reinstalled the firmware.

I guess I'll have to re-root.

Any tips on how to copy the lib folder over and overwrite? Maybe not using the sdcard?

_____

Well, I was able to reinstall the root firmware and get root within 5 min. This time i tried to copy the lib folder over again, but it totally craps out the OS - it shut down my tablet and put it back into a reboot loop - which makes sense if this is a system crucial file. I must not understand how to copy this folder over and overwrite the current lib folder.

UNLESS its just the libril-qc-qmi-1.so file

Yes....I am retarded :o. I was unzipping the lib folder posted by knoxjon instead of the one little *so zip posted by Rumbi.

Let me re-root again and try to replace JUST the libril-qc-qmi-1 file
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] Golok:
