I'm fairly new, so hopefully I get this right. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

My guess is that you're coming from iPhone if you're asking if it will slow it down since jailbreaking tended to do that. It won't slow it down unless you install apps and mods that run in the background and stuff.

All rooting is, is allowing programs to run as the root user (I *think* I'm right here). This means that they can access parts of the system that are unavailable to be modified on unrooted ROMs. This means you can get things that tweak system level functionality. It's very similar to jailbreaking an iPhone except apps in the Play Store aren't prohibited from having root functionality baked in.

Yes you can root the stock ROM.

Hope that answers it for you, and I hope I got it right. It's tough trying to figure some of this stuff out. Nothing out there really explains why things are done, but only HOW they're done. Bit of a nuisance trying to get into this in that regard.

You just said, what I said ((and the other bloke, after me) xD

Yes, you answered it. But in a way, that no n00b would understand, unless he wrote it himself (You) lol
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Okaay:
There are many reasons to root, my favorites are that I can access the root or the phone, meaning I can replace the rooms, kernels to my liking. I can overclock or underclock the phone. One more than I like to do it use ad blocker so I don't need to deal with the stupid ads that are in free apps
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 309041291a:
We root because we like to have good phones :).

And the benefits like custom colors, kernels, ROMs, and all that is nice.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zephiK:
To get the most out of my phone. Especially in the g1 days, you pretty much had to root because of the phones limitations
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
You root to gain admin access to your phone. You'd never use a computer without admin access, same on a phone. You can tweak and change anything you can imagine with root access.

And no it doesn't make it slower, actually can make it faster.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] player911:
Root access doesn't do anything in itself. It just gives you administrator access to all of the system files.

Once you have that access, you can start tweaking.

Root is only required for deep-level back-up programs, some file explorers, and rom tweakers such as Rom Manager.

Day to day stuff, Android is pretty open to anything.

Rooting allows you to release the full potential of your phone.

Hey people, just a quick post about WritePad from PhatWare. Hands down, this is the BEST handwriting recognition app on the Market. Samsung's default app wasnt bad, but this is heaps better.

$10 in the Play Store, and worth every cent. Enjoy.

Sent from my Note
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] HasC:
If you think Writepad is good, it means you haven't tried 7notes. I used to think Writepad was the best until I tried 7Notes.

The accuracy is even better and is only a tenth of what Writepad costs. It has much better recognition quality than Writepad.

Try it and posts your thoughts.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] richlum:
Thanks for the heads up on 7 note. I used to think Write Pad was good too, but I just tried 7 note and the recognition is really good. Even with my poor cursive.

l didn't buy Write Pad when I tried it a few weeks ago because it was a little expensive and I wasn't sure how much I'd use it.

7 note is so cheap I bought it to have on hand as another input method in case I want to use it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] HasC:
Glad to have been able to help, I was also amazed at how well it recognised my cursive handwriting taken at speed.

I attend a lot of meetings at work and need to take notes quickly so I use the 7Notes own application and then when the meeting is concluded, I go back to my desk and convert them into text.

I still tend to use Swype for any other text input necessary i.e. SMS, basic quick emails etc
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] aalupatti:
On the same note : Phatpad was the most used app by me I was the windows mobile. They recently released Phatpad for Android and it's a nice note taking application and also has inbuilt dropbox sync. I wish they include evernote sync like in ios version.

Hmmm, having issues with Google Checkout paying for 7notes, but thanks for the reviews to you guys here!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] uberNoobZA:
7Notes is amazing. completely blows s Memo out of the water in hand writing recognition. Thanks for the headsup on this app.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] Tomdroid:
7notes (rather: maze) is pretty good - as long as you stick to English. It can recognize German, but only on a word to word basis (no conversion of handwritten sentences). I don't quite get how the user dictionary works or how the app can learn new words?

Hint: If you're using Evernote, don't bother entering your account detail in 7notes. Just write the note, then through the menu send it as email. At the dialogue, you can chose to create an Evernote instead.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] stylobic:
7notes could be useful is we could switch between hand recognition and our preferred keyboard. But at the moment, 7notes provide its own keyboard that is quite unusable... what a pitty...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] richlum:
I actually think the 7notes keyboard is pretty good.

Things that I think are better than the stock Note keyboard are the @ / , : + - keys being available on the main keyboard without having to go press shift or symbol, and also the cursor button for moving the cursor back and forth on the main screen too.

The only thing I don't like about it is that pressing the shift key is like pressing caps lock, it doesn't just use shift for the next key you press, you have to press it again to turn shift off.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] HasC:
That would be the perfect combination, if that could be done, my combination will be Swype and 7Notes. I might suggest this to them and see if they will consider it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] stylobic:
i use hacker's keyboard, as a real pc/tablet one. so nothing to do with 7note keyboard with even no decent space key ! :D
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] rebista:
How is 7Notes better than the built in hand-writing recognition the original samsung keyboard offers? I think it does a pretty amazing job in this respect (only punctuation is no recognized well).

I understand that 7Notes also provides recognition for complete text like S-Memo should do (and does badly). But if this only works in English I am not extremely interested in this feature :) So that's not my question
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] HasC:
For me the built in recognition was not very accurate, I would guess about 75 percent accuracy whereas 7Notes is approximately 97-99 percent accurate depending on the type of notes I am taking and accuracy is less especially when using numbers in my notes.

Another major factor for me is that I can take my notes in my own handwriting using the 7Notes app and then convert the notes into typed text at a later time allowing me to make any corrections without having to make them whilst taking the notes.

As for other languages, it does not concern me personally as I only need to write in English.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] hammody:
Just to double check.. is this the app you guys are talking about ?

"7notes with mazec for Android" by MetaMoJi

it doesn't look so popular (given the feedback I'm reading in this thread)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] HasC:
Yes, this is the app, it's only recently been released, I don't think the name of the app helps it very much as it does not say what it does.

If you read the feedback, you will see that there are very positive reviews for it. Try it within the 15 period and you will immediately see the benefits.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] richlum:
You must have very neat handwriting :)

My handwriting is pretty poor and the inbuilt handwriting recognition had trouble recognising a lot of my words. 7Note recognises almost all of my scrawl, even when I write in cursive.

If the inbuilt recognition works well for your handwriting, then you probably won't get that much benefit from using 7note.

I only use the input method (Mazec) from 7note, I don't use the app.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] rebista:
Not really :)

As 7Notes is English only it's not so useful for me. Therefore I cannot say anything about benefit or not. Converting long older texts would be useful. A better recognition of punctuation would be useful.

Maybe they will offer more languages later.

At least now I know about it and can follow the development. It sure sounds interesting.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Themes and Apps] osms:
hi,

I can not install MyScript Note on my asus tf300t, I seek an alternative.

I think 7notes matches my needs: it recognizes my handwriting very well, the other advantage is that you can keep her handwritten notes (to send, print ...) but also type them in 1 / 4 seconds.

but it is only available in English, I'm French ...

someone he would parade to "circumvent" this problem?:silly:

EDIT : MyScript Notes installing on my TF300t (tks Swipzzy)

how tu use 7notes en french ? a solution must exist ???

I've been out of the scene for a while so here is a contribution to the A100 community...​

Now that the A100 has been ROOTED, we can begin tinkering with the devices.

As of now, I have not seen where we have Custom Recovery for the A100 available yet :confused:

(THIS STATEMENT IS INCORRECT. SEE SECOND POST FOR RECOVERY. THANKS Theonew)so... I have made backups of the blocks 1-7 for OUR convenience... jejeje

THESE BACKUPS ARE STOCK, THEY ARE TO BE USED IN CASE YOU BRICK YOUR DEVICE OR IN OTHER CASES, TO INSTALL CUSTOM ROMS...​

Find a link to my Android Dropbox with the .IMG files, they are in .RAR format and will need to be extracted (They took too much space as .IMG files so had to compress... :( )

Anyway, if I'm correct, most of you will only need the mmcblk0p2 (BOOT) and mmcblk0p3 (SYSTEM) images. The others were uploaded in case you need them...

NOTE: The mmcblk0p3 (SYSTEM image) is divided into 2 parts, you

MUST

download both parts to extract the file. DropBox gave an error when uploading the whole file...

The information of the tablet this came from (

ENSURE YOUR A100 MATCHES

)

MODEL #: A100

ANDROID VERSION: 3.2

KERNEL VERSION: 2.6.36.3

BUILD NUMBER: Acer_A100_1.018.05_COM_GEN2

***If your tablet is different OR you prefer to do your own backups then follow this steps from a Terminal Emulator on your tablet (You MUST be rooted for this to work)***​

At the Terminal Emulator prompt type whats in GREEN:

how could i use these files to recover if i happened to brick my tablet?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
Depends on the brick but as long as you have some form of adb you can push the partition image to the device to restore the partition to a working state. If you're bricked past adb then they won't help that I know of outside of maybe nvflash.

Couldn't have said it better myself... thanks... jejeje
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] conorkickass:

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
To put a partition image? Something like this

abd shell dd if=partitionimage.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p#

Where # is the block ID of the partition you want to do.

It doesn't usually work on a brick because the partitions are "missing".

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] DeerSteak:
Dying to figure out if I can use these with nvflash. Got a bricked (out of warranty, stock, unrooted, unmodified) A100 that shows up in APX mode. I've got APX drivers installed and I have nvflash command line utility. nvflash --getbct does...something. It spits out text at least. Now I just need to figure out the commands to flash back to Honeycomb. If that works, then I can get it back to ICS.

If it bricked because the NAND is dead, then so be it, I'll just get a cheap Chinese replacement or maybe a "old" 2011 Kindle Fire for Jelly Bean.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
Nvflash can't be used on these devices, its covered in the brick thread. Acer locked us out so only they can repair it, and they don't flash it they replace the whole board. We could use it if someone figures out the sbk for it.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] DeerSteak:
Bah, oh well. I always hated the screen on this thing anyway. :lol: My wife and daughter are both just sad because it croaked, and I can't even pinpoint it to something they did. It just...didn't wake up yesterday.

If it makes you feel better its Acer using a known faulty emmc chip, likely nothing you did caused it.

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] ramontomzer:
would there be any reason as to why fast boot works but not adb? my situation is that my a100 is bricked... i can fastboot recoveries to try to install a new rom however i beleive the system is corrupt or missing and will not allow the recovery to see the SD card (i hope that makes sense to you). ive tried to flash roms via fastboot but i end up with the error reading

"archive does not contain 'android-info.txt'

archive does not contain 'android-product.txt'

error: update package has no android-info.txt or android-product.txt"

i figured i could try to adb push this backup and start fresh however adb isnt working for me but fast boot is... doesnt make sense to me... any suggestions?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
Fast boot doesn't flash recovery zips which is why you get that error. Fastboot and adb are totally different tools used at different times. Fastboot is used only for images, do some googling on how to use it vs adb for certain things.

Adb is only available in android or recovery, not bootloader. Fastboot is only available in boot loader not recovery or android.

These images would be used in fastboot on a HC system, not ICS.

If you're getting the mount errors there's not much you can do, its the emmc bug. Needs to go to acer for repair.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] ramontomzer:
Thanks for the clarification! might just be time for a new tablet since I bought this one second hand and im not sure if it would still be covered for warranty.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Romman0:
I would call them and try, just tell them you lost the receipt. Some manufacturer's only look at the serial number, for warranty coverage.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Swiftks:
So, I finally decided to give this theme its own thread, and stop junking up jermaine151's ROM thread.

Requirements for this theme

:

- Your Bootloader should be UNLOCKED.

- You should have the most recent version of CWM Recovery or CWM Recovery Touch installed.

- You should be running the most recent version of AOKP ROM or AOSP ROM or Gummy ROM or Virtuous Prime ROM or AndroWook ROM.

This Theme Contains the Following

:

- Themed framework-res.apk

- Themed systemui.apk

- Themed settings.apk

- Themed ROMControl.apk (AOKP only)

- Stock G-Nexus boot animation (scaled up at highest quality possible - AOKP & AOSP only) <--- trying to fix speed???

- Hosts file - to remove ads

Things that need to be fixed

:

- For now, either use the Icon Only, Text Only or Circle Mod options for Battery Icon Style under Rom Control Settings. I replaced the Icon Only images with battery images with nice big numbers that are easy on the eyes. The "Icon with text" and "Icon with centered text" options will overlap the stock battery % with the new ones.

^^^

Fixed

^^^

I just went ahead and enlarged the font size for the "Icon with centered text" option. Now all battery options should work as normal. If you guys think the old icons looked better, and don't mind the above issue, then let me know; I can always revert back. ;)

AOKP Build Galaxy Nexus boot animation is running slower than normal as of Build #40. I have temporarily removed the custom boot animation, until I can figure this out. Bright side is, the .zip file size got cut in half.

***Suggestions are welcome, whether or not they can or will be implemented is another matter.***
