[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Doolittle Duckbill:
The touchscreen is now so much more responsive and the tab so much faster, its just incredible. It feels like a new device!!! The Nova launcher runs like a charm. With the Acer updates, I couldn´t really see that much of a difference and sometimes wondered if I was under a placebo effect and just wanted it to be faster with a new update.

With your CM10, there is just no question about it: The A510 is NOT LAGGY, it runs so much smoother and faster that for me, a stock Acer rom simply is not an option anymore. Indeed I would advice anyone who bought this thing to get your "upgrade". I never used a screen protector, and stock Acer rom still was sluggish.

So far I have not noticed any difference in battery life, but its still too early to tell. The A510 has a beast of a battery, so I don´t really expect any issues there. Besides: performance is so much better that I would accept reduced battery life (if there was any).

Still absolutely stoked about what CM10 did for my tablet.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] mossief1965:
+1 on this. Screen is perfect like it should have been from the start.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] pedestre:
It's too early, but it seems even better than the acer rom. I think i can finish this cycle with 13 screen hours, new record for me

Same for me, stable and much more responsive except in the bottom right corner when I try to bring the settings.

And the sound of the keyboard seems lower ... very little bug

:thumbup:
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Randomwalker:
Same here.

Face unlock doesn't work after clean install of latest build.

made an CWM Skript to set the "right" bootanimation (CM10)...

If anyone wanna try:

h**ps : / / w w w . dropbox . com/s/hb5aq30geg5p6nk/CM10%20Bootanimation.zip

sorry for the link ^Newbie can't post an outside link otherwise....

also did the original Iconia Logo (loop) as Bootanimation for the CM10

my fault forgot the gapps ^^
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] gen_scheisskopf:
I've installed CM10 about an hour ago, everything seems to be working OK (USB host not tested yet).

However I can't make any changes to /system

-df and TitaniumBackup indicate that partition is full

-uninstalling any system app in TB "works" but only until reboot only (they are back after the reboot)

-AdAway is unable to install hosts file to system ("no space left") and also unable to symlink /data/data/hosts to /system/etc/hosts- the same error as in HTC devices with S-ON (it's bootloader security- prevents making any changes in /system, /boot and /recovery)

Is there any workaround or fix?
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] gen_scheisskopf:
Yes but something in system prevents remounting /system RW.

I've never encountered such problem before on any other device (except for Archos Gen9- system in .squashfs file) so I have no idea where to look
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Randomwalker:
About the root and system mounting issue : I had that on all ROMs except NoThrill's. Perhaps this is related to NoThrill's ROM doing a reboot during first boot up (I think he said it was to ensure proper root access).
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Rusty_Gunn:
I had the same issues with my stock rom as well. as it result, i had issues getting root, adaway wouldn't work, mount system r/w in ES file explorer wouldn't work. I think it was a permission issue. through ADB shell, if i played long enough with chmod and mount it would usually yield to me, but that was the only way.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] screen2:
I repeat my question and found a new bug:

When I open the cam app, the "sidebar" with all settings etc. is there but after ca. a half second later all this is away... so I cant shoot pics or movies... :confused:
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] jo3black:
@screen2 not on my side. Kamera works fine. can change between foto & video ..change settings, take pictures.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] dangee:
Hey,

I've been playing with this ROM for about a hour now and looks like everything is working except mounting r/w system/etc (need it for adaway) .

-The screen is much more responsive than the stock or nothrillsA510.

- played Reckless Racing 2 and Ducati challenge with no lags at all...

- Camera (photo and video) works normally...

-...

So very good job...I'll use this for few days ans let you know if I find any bugs
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] gen_scheisskopf:
It seems to be main issue now, there are quite some reports.

Only possibility to make any changes is adb (or AndroidCommander) when in recovery.

Strange thing- installing CM bootanimation (posted in this topic) changed something in partition descriptor/journal because "miraculously" there is now ~6MB of free space (previously it was 0kB).

EDIT:

update-script seems to be OK (all permissions are correct), maybe update-binary does not handle ext* correctly? Gapps package has a different one
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Liquidator:
Camera is working for me, but in 720p mode, the front-facing camera shows me a slightly distorted view. Kind of like 16:9 stretched to fit into a 4:3 frame. Not entirely sure on proportions. If I set it to VGA quality it looks alright.

FAT32-formatted external SD (microSD) doesn't seem to mount at all, sadly. That's in addition to the known problems with the lack of NTFS support. That's kind of a dealbreaker, even though Butter is so very nice to have. :D

There's also no way to dismiss several notifications at once (using an X or whatever is the new standard icon). Not sure why, didn't find an option to fix that.

All in all, there's no real showstopper bug preventing me from using the tablet for Internet and stuff so far. The lack of USB connectivity is pretty sad (for me, at least), so I might just have to wait a little longer for everything to work. Nice work so far, though!
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] c_86:
cannot wait to put this on the a510!! once the RW is fixed then its all go for me!! :) thanks for your hard work on this!!
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] harmakhis:
hi,

this rom works but some minor bugs too on twitter and facebook they close themselves randomly

perhaps on the next revision improved stability?
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] jo3black:
@harmakhis ...i use FacePro for Facebook... no error's. (for me the original FB sucks).

I noticed something weird: I have this mod running since yesterday now, and most things were perfect. However since today, my unlock screen is messed up. It looks exactly like an empty home screen without the softkeys ( with the notification bar though). There is no unlock slider visible. I can still unlock the tab by guessing where the slider should be and slide, but is is kind of annoying...

Besides that, everything i tested so far worked fine. I hope to see more of this.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] BENETNATH:
New build on OP

i made a lot of little change, perhaps everything will be broken, but you love that my sweet alpha testers ;)

my RMA case does not move, i wonder if i'll get my tab back..
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] johnsk:
I've flashed the today's Rom on two Tablets.

Both doesnt boot anymore, they freezed on the green acer logo.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] BENETNATH:
ok, that was faster than compiling ;)
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] BENETNATH:
New file available, modified the boot.img with the one from previous build, to test..

please check it (sorry for the inconvenience.. hard without having the device.. :/)
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] johnsk:
Sry i've to go back to stock, i need the tab tomorrow @ work.

On weekend i can make my next try.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] BENETNATH:
no trouble, thanks anyway for the fast report of non-working build..

next one is compiling, but if some of you can confirm that the 20120912bis works, that would be great..

if someone as 350 €, and doesn't know what to do with, i'd gladly accept any dev tab ;)
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] farris:
aah, I bought it for 450! haha. I can flash this version if you want, but I have some questions:

My tablet is completely stock now. I can root it, backup current stock ROM, then flash recovery... however, for flashing custom ROMs I need to unlock the bootloader. The question is, is it possible to go back completely stock, even with locked bootloader? For guarantee purposes?

If that's no problem, and if flashing your version doesn't do any harm, I will do it ;)
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] dangee:
Yes, it works ! :good:
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] BENETNATH:
indeed, to put the recovery, you need to unlock bootloader

uo 'll be able to go back and put the stock recovery.img, but locking the bootloader again seems not possible.

however, the warranty is not void when the bootloader is unlocked, as long as you have replace any mod by the stock system on the tab

EDIT : i bought it 400 €, two RMA after (and 3 weeks lost..) the price is now 359 €..
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] farris:
okay, then I'm gonna back it up now and flash CWM on it.. and flash your second version! :)

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] farris:
I haven't seen an 'official' guide (sticky) for rooting and flashing yet.. is it a good idea to make it myself or are the seperate topics good enough?
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] BENETNATH:
if you want to make one, i'll be happy to incoporate it to OP.

currently, i'm just a bit afraid that any visitor might read and follow a tuto without considering the risk ..

when the rom reach beta level, it's different
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] farris:
That's true. However, it's the same as all the other rooting and flashing tutorials..at your own risk. Maybe a warning in red heading is enough? :D

It would be a general guide for rooting/ flashing. So it's usable for every ROM because the process (select ROM, wipe) is the same for every rom.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Randomwalker:
Quick feedback on 20120917bis

- boots w/o any issues

- still fast

- still won't mount / or /system from within the OS. Mounting via ADB will work (after remebering that you have to enable ADB root access in CM ;)...)
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] farris:

1080P filming doesn't work, first bug :P
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] BENETNATH:
little question what about root status ?

is it working or not ?

can you precisely say the bug please? FCs, nothing happen ?
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] farris:
It's standard at 720p. When you switch it to 1080p, it doesn't repsond anymore, if you tap anywhere on the screen, it responds again and it switched to 1080p. However, when you start recording, the live view freezes, but the record coutner is still counting. When you stop recording, it freezes totally and you have to close it manually.

Also, could it be that the volume is lower? Maybe because Dolby is missing? I always thought that Spotify could play a lot louder than this.

edit: Root Checker App - Congratiulations! This device has Root Access!

I haven't tested writing to /system yet...

edit2: 1080p filming is working now... tried it second time :)
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Simiil:
Probably. With the stock rom Dolby did wonders with the sound. Maybe there is some way to port it

Hello all !

New to the forums and the tablet community here.

The latest rom seems to work great for me so far; I am missing the screen response buttons in display though...

However the thing that's getting to me, is the screen responsiveness/grounding bug :/

It's still not resolved with this ROM...I wish I knew of a workaround :(
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] biel_a:
Hello everybody!

I'm also new to the forums. First of all I want to say thanks for all the hard work, the ROM is amazing!

I've had the same issue with the screen responsiveness bug. For me the solution was to install the Optimized ROM from NoThrills and then do a full data wipe without formatting the system partition. After that, the bug was gone (I really don't know why). I hope it also works for you.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] farris:
How does the camera react in-app? I've downloaded an app (the dutch version of eBay) but when I have taken a picture (in-app), I can click 'Done' for about 100 times but nothing happens. When I click on cancel, the camera app closes as normal and I'm back in the app again.

Don't know if it's a faulty app or camera-app-issues...
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] kiteman44:
Try another app and you'll know ;)
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] farris:
Couldn't think of another app, but in the Contacts app the camera works perfectly to take a profile pic. So I think it must be the app that isn't JB optimized :) A little too fast with posting in this thread haha ;)

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] salisbury_steak:
It's not just with CM I think. I got a pop-up from Titanium Backup that my device's Android ID has changed, and it was asking if I'd like to use the new one or keep the old (I clicked "use the new one", was that wrong?)

Anyhoo, all my paid apps are still functioning as expected.

I think the device ID changed because of the full wipe from CWM recovery.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] gen_scheisskopf:
DeviceID has nothing to do with serial number. It is a random number generated by Android during first boot ever or first after data wipe, it is (for sure) used by Market/Google Play as a device identifier for paid apps licenses and very likely as a cryptographic key- or a part of it- for native Apps2Sd (I'm not 100% how this works but "old" /sdcard/.android_secure files always messed with a system after a wipe)

sailsbury_steak-you may need to reinstall some apps that were restored by TB- their licenses are attached to "old" DeviceID (but after reinstallation you can safely restore their data from backup, license is not touched)
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Simiil:

HI BENETNATH,

First of all Thank You very much for all the effort you've made to bring life to our device. Now is a lot more fun and I can use it at work without complains.

I would say Thanks for your double effort as you make me remember the old times when we had to use "cards" for programming and put them to a card reader waiting for one whole day only to see if it worked. By not having your table and doing this work you must have a very good imagination!

I have two questions so far:

1- Is this new version you posted a continuation of your mod or is it part of the "joint venture" with Nothrills?

2- Will you continue posting new versions or you and Nothrills will join in the near future for a unique thread?

BUGG with the gyro sensor

Hi,

i have some buggs with gyrosensor, i try to play with two games x-plane 9 0 and Asphalt 7

and in this two games it's not possible to control the plane or the car

i don't know if there is something to do to solve this bugg.

perhaps i have to downgrade
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] salisbury_steak:
Asphalt 7 has some buggy controls for certain devices. You can see that at some of the comments in the playstore.

If you really want to see how controls should work, try Asphalt 6. (Flawless controls.)

Sorry, I don't play X-plane so I'm not sure how that performs in our tablet.

thanks for bug report, sadly i won't work on that as long i've got no tab..
