Please, tell us where we can get this mystical app...

Can it be cooked into your rom, please??:p
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
You can find it here. Root is required.

Hmmmm.... I think I'll include it in the Rom.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
I sent you link in your PM :D
[Acer Iconia A500] RiceDie:
I think that will be cool! Im waiting for the update of inferious Moscow Desire rom! Im looking forward into more performance squize out of the A501.. I hope we get some better kernels besides my favorite HoneyVillian 1.4+

PS: WiFi kill 1.7 installed!
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
As far as kernels, there are limited choices. Only a couple of kernel dev's as I know, unless I missed something.

The latest kernels, have too much undervoltage for the 501's 3g, and as a result, it freezes occasionally when using 3g only, resulting in having to do a hard re-boot. But that's the worse I encountered. Sometimes I had to reset my widgets ((

Sometimes it happened a couple times a day, sometimes I could go 2 or three days without getting a freeze. I'll look into a couple of the other kernels for stability.

Will post results back here in a day or so.
[Acer Iconia A500] RiceDie:
That will be interesting to see, although I must say HoneyVillian 3.4+ is good enough! But us Power Users need more juice out of this gadget :D

3 days no freeze :eek: damn! These kernels need a long time test :(
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Like I said, sometimes it wouldn't happen for a few days. I can tell you one thing, stay away from data farms. Too much RF from unshielded cables. On one kernel for example, at home things were fine. But get inside this one data farm, Bam! Freeze within two minutes!

Oh, did I mention the lovely 'sleep of death? Where your tab goes to sleep, but takes a double hard boot to wake it up?
[Acer Iconia A500] :
Why aren't you having lunch with your wife? :p
[Acer Iconia A500] yassero:
dropped from 70% to 35% over night (7 hours) while all communication were off, all animation off, brightness set to the lowest & marked auto.

Any suggestions or is it normal ?

Sent App from my A501 using XDA
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
No, it's not normal. With even minimum communications, you shouldn't lose more than about 4-8%, depending on notification frequency. Nobody else has reported anything, so I might guess several things.

1. Your wifi is on, and not connected to anything, so it keeps searching.

2. GPS is on, looking for a signal.

4. You have some app causing the screen to keep waking at different intervals during the night.

You should check your apps that call upon the system apps, and make sure they are not doing synchs/updates/notifications or the like. These apps will over-ride you system settings most of the time.

There are several other things that could cause this. Mainly flashing a rom "over the top" without doing wipes and formats.

Other things could be Battery Apps and Task killers. They cause more harm than good.

Apps that have additional notification and/or update options. These are listed in the individual app under Settings or More.

You can check your Wifi disconnect policy, and make sure it's set to off when the system is asleep.

But I would be looking at apps. Specifically things like auto-updates, and notifications. If you must have FB status updates and e-mail checks, set the interval to a longer setting, or to Never/Manual. Auto Synch should be turned to Off.

Hope this helps a little.

HA HA! I did. It was 0900 Moscow time when I posted that ;) I think around 8 or 9hr time difference between us.

TGI's Dude, Tastey. Jack Daniels Ultimate burger +2 beers for me, Nastya had bacon cheeseburger +cola.
[Acer Iconia A500] Tommmii:
Sweet mother of Jesus! There's a TGI's in Moscow?? I feel like Brussels is out in the bush now... All we got is 1 Starbucks.:mad:
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
HA HA! And here I thought "I" lived in the village!

Dude, we have TGI, Chili's, Subway, KFC, Burger King, McDonalds, Wendy's, and will probably have friggin WalMart in another year! ;)

Next, we'll be flying the American flag over the Kremlin!

Not to make my russian family or friends offended. Just a joke! ;)

But don't worry, I send you "Stardogs" ;) (cheap hot-dogs made from..... dog) Either that, or I set up a Baltika Beer franchise in Brussels, and really give beer a bad name ((((
[Acer Iconia A500] Tommmii:
If you setup a rom-flashing kiosk in the Baltika franchise, ya can count me in.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Whoooot! :D:D

Funny thing, I never flash new stuff, especially "untested", until my alcohol "low level" light goes out. ;)

Hell, I'm about to put an untested "leaked" 510 ICS build on my tab, after I change test kernels and a few other things that I think might stabilize it. And I have absolutely "0" idea what I'm doing!

Right now, I am getting some courage from the bottle :D:D:D

Ohhhhh.... wife will kill me if I brick her tab :(
[Acer Iconia A500] RiceDie:
Un-brick it if hapens so :D I know you know how ;)

Looking forward to your hardwork, wanna flash this tab again and again :)

PS: ICS cant wait till 3G is working on it and its stable enough 4 everyday use!
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
I know! But, I need 3g, and also front camera for skype. Also, I need apps to behave themselves :)

I pumped out A III with 3.2.1 a little while ago.

Kernel will still be 3.4+ as xda won't let me use Thors kernel 3.9r3. You know what I mean? ;)

But, 3.4+ is solid.
[Acer Iconia A500] RiceDie:
Moscow Desire, I ment as I cant wait till 3G, in the sense, as I need working on my A501 too!

AIII will check this out tomorrow!

Thanks for the valuable hint! Thor ;) FTW!
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Well, I only ran it for 3hrs on Alex III. Didn't have an issue. And I never ran it on Alex II.

But still..... be advised, 501's don't like fully cooked kernels ;) At worse, your display will freeze (do a re-boot),or, you get the sleep of death (press pwr twice to boot). But I don't think you;ll get the sleep of death with that kernel. Try it, and send me a pm after a day on 3g.
[Acer Iconia A500] b00f:
as for using tasker... it works fairly well, a few things didnt.

I ended up porting all my profiles across, seemed to work...

I should probably use something else, but if it aint broke why fix it? (what do others use for wifi and brightness profiling, i use tasker on my x10 and i wouldnt mind something else that can do a similar or better job)

Thanks again for an awesome 501 rom, il be checking out 3.2.1 aswell ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] Edenprime:
I did notice something strange lately. I cannot put beautiful Widgets, Widgets :-) on screen. They just don't come up when I'm swipeing the Widgets screen, but they did install correctly. Can someone check and confirm it? It's pure Alexandra II with no more apps installed than beautiful Widgets and tapatalk.

Sent from A501
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Strange, as I used beautiful widgets (paid version) and didn't have an issue. Check your apps drawer, and see if you have the BW icon.

I just re-download again, and seems they work ok. Not sure what happened on your end.

Uninstall, the re-install again.
[Acer Iconia A500] Edenprime:
they showed after some time, also got paid version. Seems ok now :-)
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Thank you Sir!

It's not the the 501 isn't loved, it's just that the 500 was distributed a lot earlier than the 501. So there are just tons more users.

And considering the rock bottom prices for the 500's before the holidays, there will be tons more.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Got tired of running the really cooked ones, getting display freezes and such (on internal 3g), so decided to go for a more stock internal workings.

Way too many patches need to be added sometimes on the really "cooked" ones. And a lot of people are not comfortable with doing a whole lot of flashes, or removing things they really don't feel comfortable with.

This is just an alternative.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Temporary On Hold

Well, seems I had to disable the download link. Was informed that I wasn't allowed to use a "certain someone's" kernel here.

Will re-post as soon as I find a suitable replacement.
[Acer Iconia A500] ubutnux:
It think you should remove root explorer as well, we already have filemanager hd. And boot animation is a little creepy for me :p
[Acer Iconia A500] civato:
you can use the kernel, I think but not post the link to the site.

My flex thunder rom is still active, and they didn't tell me pull the link.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Thanks! I'll see which one is better ;)

Boot ani is a little creepy, but I like it :p Could replace the bee with a girls behind :D
[Acer Iconia A500] xsatx:
Grande lavoro :)
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Mucho Gracias :)
[Acer Iconia A500] :
Don't you have root explorer installing in data/app and not system/app, so the user can uninstall it if he doesn't want it anyway?

Non issue. ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] HyoImowano:
Just wanted to say thanks for the ROM, luckily I downloaded it before the link was disabled, but I love it. Running it on an A500 with the proper WiFi only modifications, works great! Please keep up the great work!
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Well, after fully checking out the HD version, I think I'll stay with that one. No sense in adding redundancy ;) Try and keep it as lean as possible.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
You're most welcome.

Disabling the download link wasn't my call. Let's just say there was a prior history involving certain Dev's, long before my time.

I've got a kernel replacement, but will be a couple of days of testing to make sure there aren't any issues.;)
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
New Link to re-packaged ROM posted using Richard Trip's kernel.

Certain people should be happy now ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] AmitMa:
hi, can u plz upload the build.prop that edited for a500?
[Acer Iconia A500] brnakp:
theme - circle battery

I am very happy to see new A501 ROM. I would like to try it, but I am used to have circle battery mod in my current rom :) Do you plan to add this theme ajdustment to your rom? Thanks.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
It's easier for you to edit your build.prop file, and add the line;

ro.carrier=wifi-only

You can add it under "build properties, first line.

Then save it, and reboot.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Thanks!

In the future I will put some more mods. But they will be probably be flash-able mods. ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] zozo10k:
Thanks for rom!!!

I have just downloaded it, and installed.... Let's go and check it out...

Cant wait for your mods....
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Thanks.

The problem with mods, is everybody wants something different, and it's really a pain ;) I should have a circle battery mod in a couple days. Will be a painless flash.

As I said, it's a "work in progress" ;)

There's a UOT Kitchen on the web, but unfortunately it doesn't support Honeycomb :(
[Acer Iconia A500] ubutnux:
With 3g connection, my iconia always freeze. It happens a lot with this rom
[Acer Iconia A500] macia10:
Had exactly the same problem with all roms... the only help was installing thors kernel. I dont know whats exactly the problem
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Thanks for telling me. I suspected that might happen, which is why I originally used Thor's kernel. But, XDA won't allow anybody to post anything containing Thors code, so I had to remove it.

I'll go ahead and disable the download link, till I can find a more stable kernel.

I think the problem is with the lower voltages in the more recent kernels. I'll repack the rom and use a version 6, as I had no issues with it in the past. Probably won't get as good of battery power, but should be more stable.
[Acer Iconia A500] ubutnux:
Even with thor's ROM, I get freeze a lot
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Sorry about that. It seems to happen with some kernels. Usually I used thors, but XDA won't allow posting anything containing Thors code.

I'll try and get a version 6 of richard trips. It may be more stable under 3g.

Link will be disabled.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
I'll repackage the rom using a different version kernel. I used RTripps ver6 for quite awhile in the past, and didn't have an issue with the 3g.

Should get it repackaged in a couple of hours.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Changed kernel to 3.4. Should be more stable on 3g.

Working ok on mine so far. (finger's crossed)
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
The issue, is with the 501. Most Rom cookers, do not own 501's. They own 500's. And thus, can not test kernels on 501's. They modify, based on what they own, granting the fact that the HC is the same for both models.

The problem,. is that after awhile, all focus is lost on the 501 and the internal 3g. You push the threshold too far, and yeah, it works on wifi only, but cooks the internal 3g.

Biggest complaint, Display freeze when on 3g.

There are 100 500 owners, to every 1 501.

Well, with the new kernel, 3.4, I gave a little love to the 501. 3 solid days on 3g only. So far, no issues.
[Acer Iconia A500] mihnead:
playing with it now, quite nice.
[Acer Iconia A500] NunHugger:
Worked for me.

I just uploaded the fwres with the battery mod and it spit out a working one.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
People, I love the response.

The new kernel, seems to be ok, welcome to android.

Battery mod, probably tomorrow. I will have 2 types.

Straight blue, and a multi colored type.

Tell me what you wish....

MD
[Acer Iconia A500] thevilish:
I want both of them! Let they changing by piruets with each other and jumping in with currently played music tempo :P

Just kidding...

I like battery mod posted in NunHugger's screenshot (nice nick actually ;) ) but any other, different than original which is completely useless IMHO, will be more than okay :)
[Acer Iconia A500] brnakp:
battery theme

Hi MD :-)

I have already downloaded the last revision. As soon as you post link for battery theme (I would prefer the blue one, but that is just me....), I will install your ROM, test it and post feedback.

I really like your passion for the ROM!

Thanks a lot.

PS I am not sure, just a question - is there any 3.2.1 update for A501 available? Do you plan to implement it?
[Acer Iconia A500] xsatx:
:D I would prefer the blue one :)
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Thanks! As with the 3.2.1, it's not out yet for the 501. As far as I know it isn't. Am hoping it will cure the slight "lag" in the apps drawer that seems to effect ver 3.2 :D Haven't heard much feedback from the 500 users.
[Acer Iconia A500] khangozzy:
Hi Moscow Desire, the download link had problem. Couldn't download yours.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Just checked and seems to be working ok from Moscow. Should be several mirrors you can try. Maybe just some strange network traffic.

I'm uploading some battery mods right now, and "their" page is having some issues. Wait a few minutes and try again, or one of the mirrors.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
battery mods posted

See post number three.

If you find some mods you like for the battery, send me a link and I'll see what I can do.
[Acer Iconia A500] :
Problem with traffic here in the US as well. Couldn't check my download stats earlier, and now multiupload seems to be up and down sporadically. :confused:
[Acer Iconia A500] civato:
That's normal I'm using all the bandwith :D
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
.... for update patches more than likely :D:D:D

Great job on the Rom!!
[Acer Iconia A500] :
lol happy to see you're feeling well enough to post bro! ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] Edenprime:
Actually I would call it an Gaming ROM. Every game I tested (and I do it a lot, since I'm a editor on www.next-game.pl an polish news-gaming site) works like a charm for me, on the Alexandra II. I tried stock 3.2 and a Harkon's A501 ROM, they are good, there are useful but not as stable and efficient as Alexandra II. I would like to see it evolving, but to keep as much of it as it is now. Any anoying stuff? Yeah those "back" "home" and the button responsible for switching between windows are a little bit pixelized and awful, but who cares. Subaru's are also not a nice looking cars compared to Mustang GT :-) And I love to ride a Subaru!

Important thing. Do the full wipe as added by Moscow Desire in the first page, otherwise it's gonna lag a lot, as it did after I switched from Harkon's.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Thanks! I always worry about games.

And I'll see about some better quality nav buttons ;) Or better glasses ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] :
lol what's your prescription, I'll send you a pair from the States. I know you can't be getting good lenses in Moscow bro! ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] brnakp:
Great ROM

Hi MD,

I installed your ROM together with the blue dotted battery. It looks great and it works great. I overclocked it to 1504 MHz, without any problems, everything is very smooth and quick. I have still to test the battery life, but up to now, it seems normal. I will post my experience later.

Thanks a lot for great ROM.

Petr

PS The only small issue was the program Aupeo, which force closed everytime. But since I dont use it, I removed it from the system apps with root explorer. So no problem for me.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Thanks a million Petr!

I'm running the app now, and no issues. Not sure why it happened to you. But if a few else complains, I will just remove it from the apps list. Not a problem.

Usually I listen to pre-recorded music on WinAmp.

Glad it's working for you. Enjoy! Any questions, let me know.

Here's a tip: If you run Overclocking, and you know you will be away from a charging place for a long time. Set Profiles in CPuMaster (have to get the Paid version), to drop down speed based on battery. You can set several profiles. Personally, I use SetCpu as I already paid for it on my phone.
[Acer Iconia A500] soundbass:
possible is back to stock skin (with battery dot mod) from 3.2? that blue is so ulgy for me :s
[Acer Iconia A500] khangozzy:
Great job Moscow Desire, your ROM is very good, been running for a day and everything is fast, smooth and stable.

But I still prefer the stock skin of Back/Home/Task switch and signal icons.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Thanks for the comments. Really glad it works well for you!

If I get time tomorrow, I'll put a patch up for stock buttons ;) Then if you want, you can run your battery mod again if you're using one.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Yes, tomorrow ;) should have a mod for stock buttons!

Boy.... nobody likes the blue nav.... ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] soundbass:
@Moscow Desire

u don't understand me ^^ i dont like that blue theme, just like U for make that gr8 rom :)

change this if u can, or better give us full stop 3.2 framework :p
[Acer Iconia A500] brnakp:
blue theme

That is funny. I like your blue theme. It is just a matter of taste :-)

But I think that everybody should be happy that you are willing to provide us with the "back to stock theme", so we can choose.

After another day of experience with your ROM, I like it more and more. thanks.
[Acer Iconia A500] lowsum:
Actually I would vote for and original ICS theme, grey button on the left, blue on the right, no border on notification and grey windows....and an apple pie with that!

Great ROM btw! :D
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Ok Guys & And Girls!!!

will post an update to stock nav buttons, in an hour (I hope). Want to test it first! So give me a little bit ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Ok!!!

New Return to Stock Nav Button Mod is up :) Check in the Mods page. Small instructions: Wipe only Cache and Dalvik Cache only in Recovery.

This will give you the Stock Nav, Wifi, and 3g icons as in Stock HC 3.2

Enjoy!
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
HA HA, it was a joke. :D

Stock Nav button mod is posted. Shouldn't have any effect on Battery mod.

Enjoy!! :D
[Acer Iconia A500] soundbass:
just gr8, rom work & look very well with battery circle dot and the rest stock framework :p

any chance on upgrade to 3.2.1?
[Acer Iconia A500] khangozzy:
Great, tks Moscow Desire. I'll try it asap :-)
[Acer Iconia A500] :
Love your ROM bro, but could you do a pretty rainbow battery mod for me, some pink buttons, and an orange wifi meter.....pretty please?

I'd forever be indebted to you! ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Are you "trolling" me Bro? :eek:

Like I said, put me back in the '70's and I'll give you some psychodelic Jimi Hendrix themes :D:D:D

Whooo Hoooooo!!!!
[Acer Iconia A500] :
LOL Even if I give you a few shrooms to munch on while you do it for me?!? :eek:

Hitting the sack now...going to let my new ROM upload while I sleep. Hit me up on Skype before you hit the sack with the "preggers" bro ;)
[Acer Iconia A500] khangozzy:
Back to stock :) Thank for your great work.
[Acer Iconia A500] dxjak:
I think this is an excelent rom, great job.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Appreciate it! Enjoy!:D
[Acer Iconia A500] mucus_android:
I can't wait to flash this and give it a whirl!

Looks like a nice rom.

Is it imperative to change the build.prop if i'm flashing to an a500?

or can I get away with flashing as-is
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
You should change the build.prop before you flash, or you will get "please insert sim", and will also get degraded battery life as it will be in "cell standby" looking for a signal.

You can install it, but, you'll get the message.

2 ways, open the rom.zip (with 7zip for example) and look in the System/ folder for the build.prop. You can edit it in notepad.

Add the line; (doesn't matter where you add it, but usually it's at the bottom)

ro.carrier=wifi-only (if you see the line #ro.carrier=wifi-only, then just remove the #)

save and close out. Then flash it.

Or, you can edit it after you install the rom (make sure your permissions are set to RW) then save and reboot.
[Acer Iconia A500] mucus_android:
i'm also removing some unneeded stuff, such as mms and phone.

---------- Post added at 10:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:34 AM ----------

keyguard.no_require_sim=1

should i set it to 1 or 0... i'm thinking 1 is proper
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Honestly, I couldn't tell you, as I run a 501, and this really isn't for a 500.

But, I can say 1 thing, be careful about removing system apps. Some are dependent upon others ;)

Just make sure you do a backup of your current system before flashing. ;)

Honestly, just setting the ro.carrier should be enough, as it disables a lot of the other stuff.
[Acer Iconia A500] mucus_android:
i am not seeing ro.carrier in the build.prop

which line # is it?
[Acer Iconia A500] Lölli:
Problem installing tablet apps from market

Hey guys,

my problem with this new rom (instead of Taboonay 2.21) is, that I can´t install tablet apps from the market. Must I change anything in the build.prop for this?

Please tell me what I can do... thx

Lölli
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
I would update to the latest market app. Should be able to google the latest version.

I usually do mine manually.

1. Through your explorer, delete vending.apk

2. Copy your new market.apk into the same directory

3. Rename it to Vending.apk (and make sure permissions are the same as the other files in that directory)

4. Goto Settings, Applications, manage applications.

5. Delete the cache

6. Reboot. Should do it for you.

(I hope ;) )
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
If you do not see it, then you need to add it ;)

for 500 users, ro.carrier=wifi-only
[Acer Iconia A500] mucus_android:
great thanks.

i'm doing it now, if all is successful i'll upload my results.
[Acer Iconia A500] Lölli:
Hi Moscow Desire,

sorry, but it don´t work for me. I´ve done a clean install, market update to 3.4.4, but I can´t install for example Samsung Remote-Tab app. "This app is not compatible with all of your devices." With other roms I´ve no problems... Any other idea? :):o:)

thx a lot...
