Easypad 970 is exactly the same machine as the Cube and the clones (well, perhaps with less flash memory than some models). Wackym's roms work perfectly on that. I have been using all his releases with no problems.

The problem lies with the Easypad 1370 which has resistive screen, therefore the rom released by Easypix for the 970 still cannot work perfectly on the 1370(believe me I have tried it), therefore the kernel source of it cannot do any good either, IMHO. And unfortunately they haven't released anything for the 1370, except the old fashioned 2.3 rom which looks and feels like dinosaur compared to Wackym's releases :)

97d rom update

Hello to everyone in the forum-first time poster

I have read enough that I am willing to update my tablet 97d(clone of the cube u9gt2) with wackym's mod 1.08.

However I have some concerns and I am seeking any advice before I attempt it.

1. Currently installed is android 2.3.1 with the android 3 UI. If I update it with wackym's mod do I lose the android 2.3.1 with the android 3 UI or can I somehow save the current firmware??

2. where can I find the android 2.3.1 with the android 3 UI firmware-if it is still circulating?

3. Any relevant advice or things to "watchout for" before I flash the tablet

Thanks in advance for any help
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DJNoXD:
Hello dionikis

Save all important things (apps and so on). You will loose everything if you flash.

Maybe the producer of your tablet has also the "old" 2.3. firmware on its side, where you can download it. E.g. easypad, visture and cube provide downloads for latest 2.3 and 4.0 roms.

It's not a real update, because you will loose everything on the internal storage (system, data, internal sd-card). Your tablet will be completly wiped.

After the "update" your tablet will looks like you have received it first.

Maybe you can try to backup your current rom with the rockchip update tool. I haven't tried this, so I can't tell you if it's possible.

Great mod 1.08 by Wackym

The best OS so far!!! And GREAT mod by Wackym. And almost all of the bugs are gone!!!

Pros:

The OS is very snappy and responsive during multitasking, very stable

Most of the Apps are available in the store :)

-Facebook, Bump, Photoshop Touch, Viber, it's all there :)

Try Viber it's awesome, the tab works just like a phone!!!!

Speedtest.net is available for first time, shows nice speeds

I love the 2GB internal apps memory

WiFi is more stable but torrents slower (285 kB/s)

YouTube works better, loads faster

Video in all players (avi, mkv, mp4, youtube) don't freeze in upside down positions.

I like the new drag and drop 'uninstall' feature... awesome

Cons/bugs:

Still no maps, no street-view, no Asphalt 6: Adrenaline

Notification pope up several times during first launch:

"Unfortunately, BooksProvider has stoped."

This notification happend only 3 times at random, during the first setup when I turned on the device for first time. And never since. Maybe it was something from Google servers.

The desktop launcher is still not as snappy as other 3rd party more complex launchers, even the native apps/widget launcher works better by far.

This is the first OS that is acceptable and works as expected!!!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wackym:
Well...it is possible now...but if you improve battery then as a result cpu speed will have to suffer... If you're still interested then look here for an app to help you setup "cpu governing": https://play.google.com/store/search?q=cpu+governor&c=apps

As far as other devices go I'm pretty sure the power savings are maximized...too maximized in WiFi area...that's why WiFi seems to work more slowly than on Ginger.

I assume this got fixed now? :)

Indeed. It brings pain to my fingers and nightmares to my dreams. ;)

Noted. Will do :)

No, usually no...I do it in VMWare and it really depends on harddrive access...so usually it's from 30s to 3 minutes (on E6300@2.4Ghz). But I haven't found an img it would get stuck on, yet... :)

Ah, the old sh vs. bash issue :) I forgot about that...

git - great! If you'd like to add more stuff to the tutorial I can send you doc file too.

Speed tweaks: not really...I found only visual tweaks that make a slight difference. From install.txt: 'You can gain some visual perfomance if you go to "Settings->Developer options" and set "Window animation scale" and "Transition animation scale" to "Animation off".'

I did, thank you. Unfortunately this is kernel 2.6.32.27...and 1.08 uses 3.0.8... I tried compiling cifs module just in case and got this confirmation that it can't be used:

127|root@android:/sdcard # insmod cifs.ko; dmesg | busybox tail
insmod cifs.ko; dmesg | busybox tail
[B]insmod: init_module 'cifs.ko' failed (Exec format error)[/B]
<3>[ 1990.207052] [B]cifs: version magic '2.6.32.27 preempt mod_unload ARMv7 ' should be '3.0.8+ preempt mod_unload ARMv7[/B] '

But if you find another source let me know! :)

Just to clarify to everyone: CUBE makes the whole firmware...I merely take their firmware and modify it (remove some apps, upgrade some apps, fix some filesystem bugs)...

Copying my system.img to your device directly wouldn't work...First you need to convert it to whatever filesystem your device it using (cramfs?). Then there's the problem of special apps like Camera which are device specific but if it's the same processor then it could work... And lastly it might not work due to kernel incompatibilities (kernel not having support for ICS features)...

And are you sure it's a RK clone? On this site it looks like Tegra 2 is inside: http://dkgadget.com/msi-windpad-enjoy-10-specifications/

Unfortunately I cannot fix the market to show you Asphalt...I'm guessing it doesn't allow installation to ICS devices via market, yet. But if you payed for it you can always copy it manually to the device and install it...if you forgot to save it I'm sure you can find another source on web...

A really big thank you for all your hard work on this Rom for the cube my tablet is in the post and your firmware will replace what ever firmware that is sent with it.

Keep up the good work !

[Miscellaneous Android Development] stampz:
I am hoping Wackym or someone else can answer the following questions:

1)Does anyone have a way to make flash work on ICS yet?

I have the latest Wackym mod, but I can not get Netflix, iPlayer or ITV Player to work. Even the BBC iPlayer website refuses to work.

2) I have bought and downloaded and a couple of EA Games (Dead Space, and Need for Speed) but when they try to download the extra required files they just quit back to the home screem

3) If I sideload Gameloft games onto the device do they work? Or will they just not play with ICS at all?

Many thanks for your responses

Ethernet under Settings in latest ICS builds

Hi wackym

I noticed the Ethernet settings, that used to be under Settings in gingerbread versions, is missing in the ICS builds.

I have the typical ASIX based (asix.ko) USB to ethernet adapter that I would like to use with the few tablets (U9GT2) and cant seem to locate any article or source on how to enable the Ethernet under Settings back on and use an updated asix.ko (compiled for the latest ICS kernel).

I understand very briefly someone released a patch to enable the Ethernet under Settings on ICS but its a russian site and translation doesnt read that well (filename they quoted is ethernet.diff.tar.gz for the ICS builds but for a different tablet).

I have tried to setup an ICS build environment following the article at www dot freeyourandroid.com/guide/compile-ics but stucked at section 5 "Obtaining proprietary binaries" and realized the RK2918 binaries are not available under google code.

Would you be able to help me to enable the Ethernet back on the latest ICS builds, or guide me on the right direction to get pass section 5 at article www dot freeyourandroid.com/guide/compile-ics

I simply need an re-compiled ASIX.ko file for the latest kernel and a way to enable the Ethernet on the latest ICS Settings section.

Many thanks in advance

EDITED:

The driver source for the ASIX usb ethernet is located at

www dot asix.com.tw/products.php?op=pItemdetail&PItemID=97;71;101

under Drivers;

Linux kernel 3.x/2.6.38	(v4.2.0)	2011-09-19	For Android 1.x/2.x/3.0, Linux kernel 2.6.14 and later

FURTHER EDITED:

I have located a web page on Android x86 port related page, where the developer post an update for Ethernet support to the ICS builds.

Not sure if it will be of any help...

Screen flickering while charging

Hi wackym !

I've bought my tablet 1 week ago when I was in china and I'm very happy with it.

I'm still discovering its capacity and for the moment no regrets.

I managed to flash your room (1.08) without any troubles !

Everything works so far.

Unfortunately, I have one major issue : The screen is flickering and not very usable (inconsistant) while the tablet is charging.

Apparently you noticed this problem before and fixed it with 1.07 (not tested).

Do you have an idea ?

P.S. (Due to this problem I have to stop to play with it when batteries are empty, that's actually a good thing for my wife :) )
[Miscellaneous Android Development] icevapor:
I don't have my tab in front of me at the moment, by I think you change the model (might be device... cant remember) and manufacturer to:

ro.product.model=Nexus S

ro.product.manufacturer=samsung

I'll check for sure when I get home later today.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Tekkaro:
- with ICS take the build.prop from XDA.build.prop

- rename in build.prop and exchange /system

- delete data from "Google Play Store" and "Google Services Framework" -> then reboot

=> now you will be able to see, install and play most of the gameloft games

- i prefer for gaming the V2 or the moage 435 rom, the 1.08 cube is slower

good luck ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dannypk81:
I used the build.prop from the xoom to get gameloft games. However I have notice that some apps (such as RS2012HD ) seem to have an problem with screen size in ics. Part of the controls seem to be off the screen. Any one know How to fix?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dmagee:

Top marks :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Tekkaro:
@dannypk81

yup - Gameloft has for different CPUs and GPUs different Game-Files - thats why its important to get Files which are most suitable for our device - Xoom is not really close to our device, i guess one can be lucky that the drivers fit

[Miscellaneous Android Development] sisko7:
It's very very illogical to look for 2.3 when you have ICS 4.0.3

-Why?

1. ICS looks and feels like a real OS

2. ICS is optimized for tablet screens, and the launcher you get is native one

3. The Browser is faster and better

4. Folders, with a drag-and-drop

5. Better widgets, and they act better

6. Multitasking and using several apps simultaneously is great, and switching them back and forward

7. Better task/statusbar

8. Better camera app, gallery app, better gmail, the new e-book reader is marvelous, music app and music widget

9. Hardware acceleration support

the list goes on and on...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] stampz:
I have yet to find a build of ICS which certain apps will work in..Netflix, BBC iPlayer..pretty much anything that requires Flash refuses to work for me...

ICS dictionary missing from keyboard causes red underline

I see that the keyboard is still missing a proper dictionary, so spell suggestions are missing when typing and spell correction causes words to be underlined in red in email and other apps.

I used Fryesg's link to latinIMEGoogle.apk to install another copy of the keyboard, then selected it as default and set it for the one to use for spell check, but I'd really like to see this fix incorporated.

Wackym, I see a note for 1.07 (I think) that says this is fixed, but it doesn't seem to be. Can you, or someone confirm that this is still an issue?

I found another thread with a link to just latinIME.apk (no Google in the name) that will temporarily fix it if installed, but the fix disappears after a reboot.

Can anyone else confirm the same?

Wackym, can you comment on this?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Extraneo79:
I'be just installed the mod version 1.08... i don't remember the space available before, but now it says 2 gb for the apps and 4.28 gb on the sd

[Miscellaneous Android Development] icyblade:

Thanks again wackym for this great mod! I also recommend Apex Launcher, by far the best launcher on ICS imho :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sisko7:
No there is noting wrong. Wackym extended the apps internal memory to 2GB because 512MB was too low. Only a few larger apps you could install, and now there is enough room for most of my apps :)

It's unfortunate that yours is only 8GB, but you can always extend to external 16 or 32 GB sd-card

Gamesloft games

Hi ppl

Thank you to all the expert posters. Can some one help me with the gamesloft games. I can see them in market and have downloaded them but I have a problem with the screen size with let's golf 3 and real football. On let's golf the controls run off the right side of the screen so can't play it and with real football 2012 the controls run off the bottom of the screen so i can't see them.

Is there anyway I can fix this so that the games fit the screen size for CUBE U9GT2 9.7

Flash programs...please help

Hoping someone can help me with this....

I have the latest Wackym 4.0.3 mod which is really good, however I cannot get Netflix, iPlayer, ITV Player etc to work. Youtube seems to be ok, and embedded video on websites such as Eurogamer seem to work, however I have the following issues with these programs:

Netflix - Opens and lets me browser content, but when I try to play anything it just freezes up.

iPlayer - as soon as I attempt to launch the app it just goes straight to the BBC iplayer website...? Then when I try to watch anything on the website it just says "this content is not working please try later"

ITV Player - Black screen, can sometimes hear audio, then program force quits.

Can anyone help with the above issues? Is there a solution, or do I just need to wait for a new image?

Many thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dmagee:
When iPlayer etc directs you to browser have you tried installing different browsers and letting it direct to that instead of stock? I use boat browser, iPlayer loads and plays still a bit stuttery. The problem is flash is not officially supported for Ics even though the latest flash on the market says that it has support for Android 4 devices, so unless Abode decide to get there fingers out we may be stuck unless browser fixes can be done from the developers. Very annoying the sooner that iPlayer etc uses html5 for videos the better than we won't be tied to flash

[Miscellaneous Android Development] sw6lee:
Does anyone know when our tablet android 4.0 firmwares will be finally smooth? The home screen is choppy, but when turn off the wallpaper scrolling, its significantly better. Also, I think they left out some of Honeycombs bugs, I don't know how, because they are all already fixed in ice cream sandwich by google. I have acer iconia a500 so I know. First one is the keyboard lag within web browser. It lags like hell, just like honeycomb. And also, the recent app button in the navigation bar lags when there are a lot of apps to show. It should be instant in ics. It lagged in honeycomb though. Not to mention the scrolling and slide to close is very choppy too. These two are both fixed in ice cream sandwich, but this firmware still has the bugs. And this one is not related to honeycomb, but the notification tray lags when trying to open while somethings running. What is 1gb of ram for?? So if anybody can speak chinese can they find out when these bugs are going to be ironed out and when the whole system will become smooth by asking Cube or Window, or Rockchip?

Internal memory is not your sd card it is the storage from your device itself. You still will have the 16gb storage from your sd card. The internal storage is split into different parts so if you have say a 8gb device 2gb is set aside for apps etc

battery problem

Hi!

My tablet works OK until it reaches 50% of the battery. Then it quickly goes down to zero even when it's not awake. For example at night I left it on 50% and in the morning it's switched off and empty. It won't even start without a charger.

The battery performance is not bad in general. I think it takes at least 3-4 hours to go down to 50% from 100%, but the it goes down to 0% in half an hour then.

I tried battery calibration softwares, no success in different firmware revisions.

Anybody else with similar problems?

Should I go for a replacement?

TJ.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Grady Llwyd:
That does seem really strange. I am running the latest firmware and it takes a good 8 hours (wifi and screen depending) to drop mine to 5% or so.

Would certainly be looking to get it changed out mate.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sisko7:
@Drakotaki Same issue here but I don't consider it as issue because it has a massive battery and it goes through the day in one charge, no problem. And sometimes it takes 2~3 hours from 50% to 20%, sometimes only half an hour.

For me really annoying is when the battery signals at 15% I have only a couple of minutes left :confused:

And this was the case with all the fw mods (9 in total) I have installed
