No, but I've been there :D It will probably still be laggy. Only youtube seems to work smoothly so far. But it's getting better.

What does it say when you try to connect? I presume you're using the new ad hoc feature which came with 1.06.

Not being recognized is probably due to ADB being ON. Go to Settings->Developer and search for USB Debugging (ADB) and turn it off. This doesn't effect updating only transfering files (MTP doesn't work at the same time as ADB). You are safe to use the latest located at the top of the first post of this thread. Some report that skype doesn't work well.

No, I don't recommend having cube connected to charger and usb at the same time.

I've tested this many times...there's a bug in mounting of devices and if you forget to unmount it before removing it then it can result in errors on the flash device...the next time you mount it the errors get detected and for safety reasons it's remounted as readonly...I'm still working on a proper fix.

Perhaps it was just my feeling from all the updating at home :D It's best noticable when you open Market (for me it loads faster).

Have you noticed that touchscreen now works even while charging? :)

Yes, it's hash of the img...stupid of me...here are the hashes for the whole

U9GT2_V1.07_20120215_mod_v2_by_wackym.7z:

SHA1: EC77B91F16960D42CAA4156128BCBAC3AC9FFD07

MD5: 9DA12F76932DCEFBFD10A3279DBB98C6

CRC32: 1ECCDA27

Did this happen while the tablet was syncing with google? Sync can take quite a while although it doesn't slow down the system that much...Do you have original U9GT2 or N90 or similar?

Hmm, I admit I didn't test this. Was this working with any version of mods or is it just an issue in 1.07?

Mass storage was switched to MTP by android developers....I'm still fighting to get it back.

Yes and see Titanium Backup.

I've experienced such problems with my LG swift phone as well...it's probably just a glitch in software on either side... Switching from DHCP to static ip on the phone solved the problem for me. Perhaps it might help you with this tablet too.

He he, you just did :D Cheers! :cool:

Thank You and everyone else for your support! What started as a "hey guys, I made a mod to make my tablet better...perhaps it can help you too..." has grown into a fairly large community :)

With my each mod the download statistics go up - now they're at ~700 downloads from my mirrors and this is not counting downloads from torrents and other "unofficial" mirrors. :cool:

Thanks very much for you answer Wackym, and the asnwer for you question is... im using your mod .. the last one, "U9GT2 _ V1.07 _ 20120215 _ mod _ v2 _ by _wackym." and doesnt work :O ... what do you mean im using ad hoc with 1.06?...

Anyone could conect iphone network with our cube?

Thanks very much :)

My best regards

I did both of your suggestions. GMail and Market worked for a little while. No luck with youtube. Now its back to no connection.

---------- Post added at 03:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:30 PM ----------

Not sure how to do this. Can you explain how to change this please.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] satfly:
I think you're right: my problem was probably caused by the background syncing. I re-installed your 1.07 mod and patiently waited for the sluggishness to end. Now it seems to be working fine. Thanks again :D

By the way, I have the OEM U9GT2.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Tekkaro:
"back to no connection"? ok then its probably not the application itself

maybe its the WLanRouter - some People reported having problems with "WEP" and recommended switching to the "WPA2" security protocol

If this also doesnt help then there is another solution, probably the last one ;) the solution from wackym, to change the IP address from DHCP to static. That means you have to give your tablet an own IP address - you can manage this within the settings of your WLanRouter and tablet.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sw6lee:
Hi wackym you didnt answer my question..any suggestion? The whole system is really choppy, compared to some review videos of cube u9gt2..

Also, do you have any problem buffering youtube video via the app? Maybe its because mine is Window tablet, but I can't buffer faast enough to watch a youtube video..

Please answer both my questions. Thank you!

The hash for the image is useful when others are re-packaging your image into another archive (say using 7zip or RAR but split into multiple volumes), and users want to verify the authenticity of the image.

I've been following wackym's mod since day 1. I'm not surprised at the large following. There really isn't any other mod that is comparable to this. Everyone, including the folks in China, should use this mod. :)

Adhoc wireless network is never officially supported. It will never work out of the box from versions 1.00 to 999.999. You need to go through hoops to get it working. I've posted the guide in Slatedroid.

---------- Post added at 09:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:23 AM ----------

You need to go to "Advanced" option to reveal IP configuration settings. Change DHCP to Static and set accordingly. If this is too much for you to handle, then you might wanna get someone to do it for you.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kenshinta:
What are the steps to do that fix if you dont mind?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] timothy918:
Thanks for the suggestion. I changed from wep to wpa2. Didn't help.

So I changed from dhcp to static ip. That seemed to fix it. We'll see.

Thanks again for the help.

I noticed earlier that when I boot the tablet for some reason google maps starts up minimized. I see it when I hit the 2 little squares on the bottom of the screen to show what programs are running.

---------- Post added at 09:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:17 PM ----------

I figured it out, thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fyresg:
Yes I'm keen to know how wackym fixed this problem. I had thought this was due to poor grounding, meaning a physical connection problem, yet it can be mitigated by a software tweak? :eek: Interesting!

---------- Post added at 01:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:25 PM ----------

Till now, I am unable to find any traces of the "official" v1.07 release, if it was released offically. I checked the official download page as well as the forums but found nothing on it. Is 1.07 a leaked release?

Edit: Cube has released the 1.07 firmware.

U9GT2 v1.07 dated 23 Feb 2012 (Size: 254.89MB)

1. Fixed online video-audio out-of-sync issue; optimised system and fixed network problems

2. Fixed issues on the reading data off external USB storage devices; the solved the problem of "USB already removed" prompts

3. Fixed the problem of recorded audio that cannot be played

4. Fixed artefacts in the video editing tool
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Drakotaki:
Gtalk and Skype

Gtalk voice/video chat is not working with any ICS mods, text chat is OK.

Skype is transmitting some image back and forth but the screen is garbled and my microphone doesn't work. I can hear them from the other side though. I think the problems with Skype related to the Skype software, not the tablet or the ICS. I hope Skype will fix it soon.

But as I see GTalk has to work fully as it's a part of the ICS itself. Maybe just some settings to the actual U9GT2 camera are wrong.

All in all so far there's no working video or audio chat for uor mighty tablet! We can't leave it like that! :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bouldou:
Yes, I'm interested in that too ! Wackym, did you do something or was it solved by Cube / Rockchip ?

I'll check it again, but for the moment my favorite rom is the 1.06

Thanks !
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bouldou:
EDIT : Wackym, I tested your last firmware, and... the touchscreen still act erratically when the charger is plugged in :(

Maybe it depends from the charger too.

Someone else tested ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] trunkline:
I not detected any problem with the touchscreen when the charger is plugged in. My charger is from OEM Cube 12V/1500mA and the current firmware is 1.07 V2 from wackym. Also with 1.6.

Hello all, as I understand it now can not install apps on the sd card outside right?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Tekkaro:
exactly

i would also prefer to remount the external sd to /sdcard again like it was in 2.3.1 - backups and testing new ROMs would be a lot more convenient again
[Miscellaneous Android Development] wnfrd:
> I had thought this was due to poor grounding, meaning a physical connection problem, yet it can be mitigated by a software tweak?

Not a contradiction. If it was some kind of capacitive coupling problem via the PSU, then a simple 50/60hz filter could mitigate it (ie. a filter for the mains frequency). 50/60hz filtering is pretty standard for analoge signal ICs because this type of noise is very common.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Dominex:
There is no way then to go back to 2.3? :(

Some (newbie) questions about wackym 1.07.

Hi,

I'd like to ask two questions about the GREAT work of wackym with our devices:

1) I've installed the last wackym's rom. Some folders into the microSD, a single 4gb. one for music and books, have disappeared (??). Maybe during the installation is mandatory to remove the microSD card?. Due to this problem, I'm unable to access to a backup of my apps made with and android app :eek:

2) Could anybody please how Android 4.0.x "google backup & restore" works?. I had it activated during the time I was testing the previous release and anything happens. My idea is that everything is going to be restored automatically (...).

Thanks again to wackym and all of you for your work ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] phantomkiwi:
battery patch

From what I've heard from cube owners is the 'mobile standby' takes a lot of the battery power...

If this is true it would be wise to disable this process - in order to get that battery power back.

I've even heard it takes up more then 50%

Running a process that is not needed in a tablet is silly!

If this is true imagine the battery enhancement - run 50% longer - WOW!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] satfly:
If your backups were saved to /sdcard then I am afraid they will have been lost during the flashing of the new firmware. The problem is that the /sdcard folder is actually the Cube's internal memory, which is wiped during the flashing.

Your actual sdcard is mounted at /mnt/external_sd (or something similar).
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MJLONGLEY:
Hi,

Thank you for all the help so far -

Just tried to "Start RKBatchTool.exe" but got Error "Loading config file failed"

This happens repeatedly - How do I proceed?

Thanks,

Mike Longley.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] satfly:
I think you tried to start the RKBatchTool.exe directly from the zip-archive without first unpacking it. You should unpack the entire zip/7-zip file first including all folders.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MJLONGLEY:
Hi,

Thank you.

After downloading and using WinZip I have a long list of items, all but one unzipped - the third one, which is another 'unzipped' file of same title as the original download. If I try to unzip that I get an error message "Cannot open file, it does not appear to be a valid archive" with the suggestion to download again. I have now downloaded from both Mediafire and 4Share (Filedropper would not work) and I get the same situation from both!

What am I doing wrong?

Please can you advise.

Thank you,

Mike Longley.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] satfly:
You didn't unzip correctly then. After unzipping U9GT2_V1.07_20120215_mod_v2_by_wackym.7z you should have one folder containing 2 files and 3 subfolders. Select the 'Use folder names' switch in Winzip to keep the included subfolders as they should be.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MJLONGLEY:
Hi,

Thank you but now I am more confused.

The "Use folder names" option is ticked.

In my experience of using WinZip previously so long as it was installed on your machine then you only had to 'click' on a zipped file and WinZip unzipped it without needing further involvement.

I did not have WinZip on this particular machine but downloaded the free evaluation version (it used to be totally free) and then, after dowloading the zipped file just clicked on it and let WinZip do its bit - the result being a screen full of files, one of which was not unzipped which surprised me. But when I look at WinZip now, as I said the "use folder names" option is ticked. I am currently downloading the zipped file yet again on to a different new Windows 7 laptop but that currently does not have WinZip installed.

What do you think that I am doing wrong?

Mike Longley.

---------- Post added at 05:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:49 PM ----------

I have just looked at Mod 1.06 that I had downloaded but not unzipped before downloading 1.07. I clicked on that and it then unzipped IN TO FOLDERS but the file still remaining unzipped (same name as original download) - when I clicked on it again to unzip it went through the extraction process but failed yet again with the "Cannot open file, it does not appear to be a valid archive" message. I am wondering whether my downloading using 'GETRIGHT' download manager which I have used without any problem for over 10 years has anything to do with it. The download that I am currently doing on the Windows 7 machine is not using GETRIGHT.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] satfly:
The file inside the .7z file that winzip sees as a zip file is probably the IMG-file (U9GT2_V1.07_20120215_mod_v2_by_wackym.img). You should definately NOT try to unzip this.

I don't use Winzip so I don't know if it properly handles .7z files or not. I recommend that you download 7-Zip 9.20 from www.7-zip.org and get rid of Winzip. 7-zip is free, fully functional and can even unpack .rar files.

This is what you should see after unpacking U9GT2_V1.07_20120215_mod_v2_by_wackym.7z:

ADB (folder)

RK29 Driver (folder)

Tool (folder)

interesting findings about copying files to external SD, it can't work with ES file manager & Astro. But with Root Explorer's R/W function, i manage to copy files from internal SD to External SD. Root bug in Kernel file access?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Tekkaro:
maybe this is the reason why still, since ~2 years, the root functionality in es explorer is called "Experimental Feature" - but interesting though

I have no problem with copying files to the real external SD using ES file explorer. You just have to ensure that the home directory is set to / instead of /sdcard.

I don't know if this problem has been mentioned, but when I type in text field like the slatedroid or sometimes xda forum with my tablet, the keyboard lags like crazy. I was writing a reply in slatedroid just right now. But its like lagging at least 5 seconds behind, so I was like forget it, and just exited out without continuing..

Another problem is that every single word has red underline when I type in any app. Its so hard for me to edit, say a letter in the middle of a word. I'm using smart keyboard pro.

And I'm running wackym 1.07. Please have a look at these issues. Thanks.

Hi everybody,

Regarding HDMI output, I have checked RK2918 specs which states that it can manage HDMI streams... Anyway, the only possibility to ouput such stream would be the OTG USB port using an MHL adaptor. Actually, what I have seen is that all tentatives to output such stream doesn't work.

Regarding the use of MHL on OTG usb port, the Tablet need a driver to choose who from OTG or MHL protocol should take the control of this port.

My hypothesis is that such function is not yet implemented in the actual rom of the tab...

You can see an example of such function at::

Here, upi can see such implementation: "ww.spinics.net/lists/linux-usb/msg39467.html"

Dear wackym, Is it possible to add such function/driver in your mod?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] trunkline:
It is very likely that the tablet does not have the hardware (i.e. "HDMI chip") for HDMI out so having a microUSB to HDMI adapter is useless. Such adapters are designed for devices that have the hardware support (has "HDMI chip" built in) and at the same time, is designed to share the microUSB port for HDMI as well as conventional USB access, thereby reducing the no. of required physical sockets.

Charging and 1.07

I have no problem during charges with 1.07 fw. and OEM U9GT 2.

My wall charger is european standard (220V)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] phantomkiwi:
From what I've heard from other threads there was a dodgy batch of power adapters by just simply putting some insulation tape on the end will fix the issue... or buy a new adapter.

And just an off topic questions how have you found the battery life? how long will it last for web surfing with wifi on?

The reason for asking is I want to hear from actually people who have used the device not people wanting to sell it and so far no one has answered it completely. This info would aid new buyers like myself make sound judgments in buying the device or not.

If you guys can put your hour usage in the end of your thread answers as well it would help new comers greatly.

1.07 slow and sluggish

Hi guys, here's my experience from 1.07 mod (my previous FW was 4.0.1 - 1.04 for N90):

- the interface is more sluggish (not smooth as before)

- even 720p videos are dropping frames and with slight glitches every minute or two

- most of the apps are also slow (after clean install) and nagging in performance even the "optimized" Google-apps

- in Quadrant standard I get something like 1350 in final score (previously 1580)

Can you tell me how much score do you get in Quadrant

Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] i1fang:
not quite sure how come some guys mention about unstable

- wifi

- sluggish performance

- funky touch screen when plug in power adapter

my U9GT2 is a OEM, and I have none of the above. My Quadrant score with 1.07 mod is 1538. And I have 700++mb apps installed.

I feel that there maybe a certain batches that are having hardware issues, etc.

And lately, there seem to have a U9GT2 clone out in the market. How much different in the hardware or batches different, no ones seem to be able to address. Unless we open the set to look at the motherboard?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] sw6lee:
I have a N90 as well, and mine feels very sluggish too. Not smooth at all. but its not just the wackym mod that's not smooth, but even visture and window firmwares were all sluggish. I have only tried 4.0.3 though, so I don't know about 4.0.1. Even the recent app button in the bottom is very sluggish, and home screen is even more sluggish. Right now. I'm running iLauncher, whicg is an ipad launcher, and this is the only launcher that makes this tablet usable, at least for me, so I'm using it. It sometimes force closes though.

---------- Post added at 01:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:15 PM ----------

When I set bright ness to 50 percent, and surf web, with flash off (cause it doesn't work well anyway), I get about 7-8 hours battery life. Its pretty decent.

Auto-rotate issue

I have an issue with auto-rotate and sometimes it stops working, my tablet is OEM U9GT2 ver.

this was happening on all firmware versions:

4.0.1 (1.04) from N90

4.0.3 (1.07) by wackym

4.0.3 (1.06) by wackym

So, when it happens I have to restart the system. With the 4.0.1, I had to 'Factory data reset' in order to get it working.

So far I was not able to recreate the 'event', but I have noticed that only sometimes when I launch an app that has default portrait mode like 'Team Viewer' or 'Sketchbook MobileX' the auto-rotate freezes.

Did anybody had similar experience?

Hi Guys, It seems that 1.07 is still a work in progress. Thanks everyone for the hard work. I expect that a smooth efficient version will be here soon. Where can I find an old Honeycomb version 2.3.1 of the firmware that is rooted and cleaned. I've searched everywhere.. Thanks, Bar
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tntt:

2.3.1 is Gingerbread, not honeycomb (it just has a modified UI so it looks a bit like honeycomb). anyway you can download it from www.visture.com. Check their firmware section, find the 2.3 rom for V2, works on all U9GT2 based tablets.

---------- Post added at 01:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:55 AM ----------

mine has a problem with the touchscreen no matter which rom I try. so i guess its a hardware issue. the touchscreen on the left side for a band of about 10-20 pixels vertically most of the time doesn't respond and at other times its as if parts of it are being touched even without touching.

anyone else experienced anything like this before?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] u669983:
First of all thanks to Wackym for a great rom.

I have purchased a visture v2 since mid december. I have tested almost every rom since then and I can say yours is definitely the best. The tablet is fast and works perfectly. Obviously still a few issues with ICS. Video chat ( skype etc) not working and some other apps not available on market . But overall I am very happy with it. I think that once the video chat issues will be solved, this tablet will be top of the list.

cheers
