I have a onetab (trackball, menu+back key)

Here are some cm6 features: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_vendor_cyanogen/blob/froyo/CHANGELOG.mkdn

some of them is native notification power widgets, flac support and it should run better than cm7...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] stevemp:
CM6

Sounds good, it should work better than CM7 on my tablet also. I will give it a try.

No matter which rom I flash, I can't connect to wifi. Any ideas?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] stevemp:
wifi

Was it working before you flashed a new rom?

stevemp
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BenRivera:
Yes, it connected with no issues.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] stevemp:
wifi

I have a Next3 and the eclair roms won't connect for me unless the encryption is turned off. Maybe try changing your router settings. Froyo roms work the best for me.

stevemp
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BenRivera:
I turned off encryption and got final Eclair version to work. I will try a Froyo next.

Archos 70b/c ROM

Good Evening Gentleman,

I'm actualy try modify an rom from this post to work on a Archos70b/b eReader

.

At the Moment it looks really well, because the device is much similar to the next-2

My dream is to get a Gingerbread Rom on this device,

with running play store and maybe a little overclocking. :cool:

At the moment I've 2.1 "Rockingchip" Rom running with bq kernel.

Issues:

- orientation sensor is tilted 90° (touchscreen fits to the screen)

Have anbody an idea how i can modify the setup of the sensor?

(Where I can find the settings?)

Sorry for those noob questions, this a the first steps to cook my "own" Rom. :o
[Miscellaneous Android Development] stevemp:
A7HT Version 2

Screen orientation is in the kernel, can only be changed in fun_ rom with settings in build.prop in system image.

# Parameters patched by fun_

sensor.accelerometer.flip_xy=0

sensor.accelerometer.invert_x=1

sensor.accelerometer.invert_y=0

sensor.accelerometer.invert_z=1

You might try rom for A7HT Version 2 by hvdwolf> http://forum.archosfans.com/viewtopic.php?f=81&t=57534

Overclocking is not possible with rk2818, sorry.:(

stevemp
[Miscellaneous Android Development] heart_crafter:
intresting... i didnt know next 2 can use the same rom also...

try a different kernel img... use original kernel if possible and see if it fixes the orientation...

we dont have any eclair in which you could change orientation preference... disable auto orientation or maybe we can figure out how to edit the framework to make this rom work with your device...

dont forget to run the backup app and give me feedback if you ever put Rockingchip back on ur device :D

thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] stevemp:
Change the kernel and you can run Next2 roms on the Next3, that's how I tested Next2 roms. Thoght everyone had moved on to new tablets, quiet around here. :)

New firmware after repair

Hi guys!

haven´t been looking at this thread for a long time. With my ODYS Genesis I had the problem that my MAC address was missing and therefore I could not get internet access. I sent it for repair and now got it back with a working MAC address and with a new firmware:

V2.1.4.0.ECLAIR.eng.root.20110720.105308.

I would like to install one of your ROMs. The problem is that my present firmware is not available on the ODYS homepage. I tried to back-up my ROM with ROM Manager, but this did not work. Therefore my question: is there another programme which I can use to make a back-up of my ROM?

thanks in advance!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SimsonS53:
Steve & Heart_crafter,

thanks for your help, first I'll try to get the cooked Roms runnig with modifing the sensor setup. :D

Maybe after this I'll try the Rom Archos Forum.

(Damed! I've searched the Archos Forum and didn't see this thread):confused:

I try also the backup app if the pad will work.

No overclocking? Oh thats sucks...:(

but I can not have it all, in the end its only a low end Tab...

---------- Post added at 02:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:49 PM ----------

Hmm...

the strange thing is, that I've used the 2.2 bq kernel.img for "my" Roms.

And by flashing the complete "original" bq Rom works fine.

I cook it by using the following process:

using the Rom for example the rockingchip Rom

unpacking the *img

exchange the kernel.img, misc.img and recovery.img by taking the bq *img's

pack the Rom together

flash it

By this approach the kernel is not changed,

is there an differnet way, where is the setup stored?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] heart_crafter:
i havent :P bought any device yet :D

too busy sleeping :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] heart_crafter:
what versions is ur bq rom?

if it is eclair 2.1, try copying libsurfaceflinger_client.so from your original bq rom to rockingchip in /system/lib/

let us know if that does anything good for you :P or u just get a black screen :D

take care
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JDfense:
Afaik there is no backup possible from tablet to pc, but I have the original odys firmware. I need two or three days. Right know I have no access for uploading the firmware.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JDfense:
I think, the question is which bq kernel do you use. For the 7'' tablets you need the voltaire kernel and for 8.4'' you have to take my favourite darwin kernel.

fun_ adjustment with the screen rotation are working only on fun_based cm7 roms, as far as I remember.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] heart_crafter:
looks like u have an upded version of eclair :D

maybe you can rip off ur images to your pc using rkdump...

try using rkcooking bat file... from their you can extract ur update img from the tablet to ur pc... then post that update img here :D and extract kernel from it :D

have fun :D

Eclair

I have Prestigio V2.1.9.ECLAIR. :D

stevemp
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SimsonS53:
Crap!?!

Looks like that this option will not work for this.==> Get black Screen :p

Hmm... I'll keep trying, but your rockingchip Rom works the best for the archos 70b/c eReader (7").

Is feels faster and more responsive than the bq voltaire 2.1Rom.

The Archos 7HT Rom produces also an black screen...

---------- Post added at 08:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:53 PM ----------

Like described above I've used the 2.1 bq voltaire,

the device has run with this "original" Rom over an half year.

But the market isn't working well and is not really fast but

much, much better than the unholy original 1.1 crap.

Oh, I've too clean up my folders, to much rom versions... :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DaremoS:
Sharing some new experiences

Correction of orientation.

I'm simply alarmed :eek::eek::eek:... I asked in many forums how can I fix the orientation of an entire device which is turned 90 degrees leftwise.

No answer in any place (including this :p)... answer is really simple and I share it with you for general android education purposes:

ro.sf.hwrotation=0, 90, 180, 270 degrees in build.prop... as simple as that :)

Tethering.

I've been using my tablets in any place I want using the Tethering function of my cell phone equipped with internet mobile.

A gem absolutely new for me!! ... :D

Video and fastest rom for 3084b

Hi!

I found the Prestigio 3084b at a store near me for ~150 USD, which seems to be a very good price. I'd use it primarily for xvid and mkv video. I want to hear from you guys how the tablet performs with a standard xvid video, the 700mb kind. Is it smooth (no jittering, stopping, hacking, slowing down)? Dare I think about 720p?

Also, what is the fastest (most reliable?) rom for the Prestigio 3084b? I was thinking the newest Eclair, because older rom = less system requirements. Am I right? How do the 2.3 roms compare?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] stevemp:
Eclair doesn't support mkv or xvid (try Mobo Player) but V2.1.21 is the best. I converted my video to mp4. 720p and 1080p play fine on Next3. Best Gingerbread is DaremoS rom> http://www.mediafire.com/?76a6k2kscrw8vk6 comes with most apps you need, games don't work. mkv plays on this rom.

Thanks! The mediafire link seems to be not working atm, trying again later. (It says preparing download, then "something is wrong").

So I looked at the first pages on this and the other topic. I couldn't find the description on how to actually flash the room. On my phone, I first rooted, then flashed/installed clockwordmod recovery via adb shell, fastboot, superboot or something similar sounding. Then I had to put a .zip file on the root of the sdcard, install via recovery - et voila!

I imagine a similar process is required for this tablets (tablets in general). I would be very grateful for a link to a manual or a brief walkthough.

Do you really suggest to mix the roms with the kernel from other rk2818 tablets? I'm shure it will work with our 99% same hardware cheapos, but from others like onetab or what else, you will get bootloops or complete hanging blackscreens. I have learned to leave kernel, misc and recovery together from one firmeware. You must not take it from your stock rom, so I find out, that the arnova 84, the bq darwin are working good in most cases on odys genesis. Next 3 and Prestigio 3084b are working too, but sometimes with a bad calibration.

By example the original Prestigio firmeware works better for me, when I replace the kernel, misc and recovery from my odys genesis.

Stevemp your roms have become more and more perfect!

In fact, in my 8.4" RK2818 (Darwin) I do not waste time trying to solve things... I simply use yours :) ... In 7" (Verne) i just replace the kernel :p

Believe me that I've try to find errors in them... without any success for the moment :( ... this let me spent my time in RK2918, my excellent Samsung Galaxy Ace and my little Huawei U8180. Lots of enjoyment.

For movies I'll suggest you to test Moli Player and the beast of players which is Wondershare Player (maybe a bit heavy for RK2818)

Congratulations for the excellent work!!!

EDIT... I have to say that you have covered more ground that our beloved Nippon dev.

The reason is really simple you have spent lot of your time studying how this Android thingy work and discovering the relations among the parts, like it's this of the libraries and kernel.

But more important is... you don't waste time fighting with other people and chasing those who take your job and cook it.

I say that you have become a real developer instead of a cook like we are!!

BUY A RK2918 FOR YOURSELF!!! ... and a Galaxy Ace GT-S5830M :o

I am not sure what is happening, deleted media list data, reflashed rom and it builds data again. With Jostey rom you can add new music and video and media search builds the data again. Code is almost the same for both roms except Jostey has removed large amount.

---------- Post added at 03:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:47 PM ----------

[Miscellaneous Android Development] BDUAres:
I have a pair of Nextbook 3s. I wanted Android Market on them, so months ago I downloaded the roms on the first post in the original thread, and played with those - the donaldj83 roms. Out of those, I liked the "Origional Next3 firmware with market and root added" the best, except the Market stopped working after a while. The longest I got it to work was a couple of months, then it stopped showing 99% of the apps available.

So I checked back here and found the newer roms, and tried out the DaremoS Gingerbread rom that was in JDefense's sig (dar237v8.img), and grabbed the Froyo as well (bqfroyorootv4.img). The Gingerbread was considerably slower than the Froyo, but my wife liked it, but it would not play media files. I put the Froyo on my Next 3, because for some reason it would not stay calibrated in the Gingerbread (worked fine for a little while, then the cursor would jump, or, if in a menu, it would act like a "back" or "left" button was being pressed and would jump from tab to tab on it's own., and there didn't seem to be a "calibration" in settings) I liked the Froyo as it was faster and did not give me the jumping cursor problem, but then found that Live Wallpaper would not work on it, and games that played fine on the Gingerbread had corrupt graphics on the Froyo.

I have downloaded the newer Gingerbread that stevemp did some work on (dar237v8-fix-smp.img) and just installed that on the two Next3 tablets.

My question would be along the lines of, what would be the most stable rom for the Next 3 which has a working Android Market, working music and videos and working graphics/Live Wallpaper? My wife likes the games and I am more utilities and business oriented in tablet use, and I seem to have no issues flashing the roms, I just can't seem to find a rom that does what we would both like to do on these tablets.

Any suggestions?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] stevemp:
Froyo is stable, Gingerbread is for play.

JDefense has a different tablet than us and his roms do not work as well.

Next3 and Prestigio PMP3084b have the same hardware so try those roms first.

These are not gaming machines, 600 mHz and 256 meg of memory.
