[Acer Iconia A500] civato:
Working on a little update.

Been busy modding the framework to match the Acer look.

Also stock battery icon got a % in it.

Ported the following stuff from the A700 JB ROM.

Acer JB launcher, making the JB digital clock widget work correctly.

Updated Acer printer.

Polaris office 4.0 JB edition from the Acer A 700.

Integrated MusixFX from Acer. Now you can pick DSP or musicFX as equalizer.

PlayStore updated.

Most of the changes are done under the hood.

Still hoping I can port the Acer ring.

But this needs a lot of modding of the systemUI and framework, meaning a lot of time that I don't have.

Here some screen shots

Acer launcher with Acer wallpapers and jb digitalclockwidget. ( this widget layout only shows correctly on the Acer launcher)and some Acer apps like the Acer clearFI apps, and the ApINAp manager.

New framework non transparent mod to mach the Acer look, you also see the musicFX option

Polaris for Acer JB tablet, very nice options if you ask me. Also a file manager and combined with the Acer printer it is a great tool

Can I smell civ cooking 4.2?

:D
[Acer Iconia A500] teb76:
no root

Hi guys, just flashed 2.0 ROM, coming from 1.7 one, without wipe.

The superuser app crashes so I can't root. Anyone among you have the same problem? Any idea on how to solve it?

Thanks
[Acer Iconia A500] TFordham:
Wipe first.
[Acer Iconia A500] dnardz:
Text-to-speech is not working on my A500? Anyone else experiencing this?
[Acer Iconia A500] amphi66:
Clear Superuser cache & data under Settings-Apps. When SU rediscovers the apps you want to use it will work. Goodluck --Larry
[Acer Iconia A500] civato:
No , using android text to speech and no problems here.
[Acer Iconia A500] teb76:
It has worked!! Many thanks
[Acer Iconia A500] civato:

Recommendation

Congratulations Civato for another excellent custom Rom, My recommendation is that the Quickboot app is not necessary since CM includes this feature from the exit menu. :good:
[Acer Iconia A500] enotar:
G8 release one more time.

Very pleased with everything

Thank you
[Acer Iconia A500] kylec:
Great release. Just tried it after having not used by Iconia for about 2 or 3 months. I can't believe the progress that's been made.

Everything I've tried works flawlessly besides the dd random reboot every now and then, but its no big issue

Thank you
[Acer Iconia A500] enotar:
Found something: disapearing lock screen. Not a big deal.
[Acer Iconia A500] Falcon1:
the same here

I have the same issue, the lock screen does not appear after waking up the tablet.:confused:
[Acer Iconia A500] civato:
That is the EGL memory leak bug all JB roms got , reboot once a day is my recommendation.
[Acer Iconia A500] squiglybob13:
I just flashed this and I just love it :D Thanks and keep up the good work civato!
[Acer Iconia A500] hlaalu:
hmm that's odd, I have complete control over mine when it's connected.

I do wish there was a way to turn the screen off on the tablet when it's connected
[Acer Iconia A500] enotar:
Strange since last night market doesn't connect.
[Acer Iconia A500] darkensx:
I've found some kind of weird issue though i doubt its anything major but My A500 Seems to drop WiFi connection quite frequently it will reconnect right away however but will drop the connection later on again repeats over and over.

Anyway I must Say though This is by far the most stable JB Rom i have seen so far I Give It :good: :good: :good: :good: :good: and i think applaus are in order as well
[Acer Iconia A500] Wormboymx:
Noo. even in the 2.3 version (i update today) no works the touch panel when i connect the cable HDMI to the TV.
[Acer Iconia A500] hlaalu:
Very weird. I wonder if the fix for the audio I posted could fix the control too.
[Acer Iconia A500] Wormboymx:
Maybe, but I remember when the audio doesn't work, the touch panel too.

very good JB rom.

My only issues right now...

1) LED Flashlight in notification toggle doesn't work.

2) Cant seem to enable orientation lock notification toggle.
[Acer Iconia A500] devize:
My animations are laggy using this ROM and from what I can remember, my last couple ROMs too. Anyone else experience this? The screen flickers rather than showing the animation when opening and closing apps etc. I just installed the ICS bootloader and did a full wipe before installing. I believe this first started occuring when I tried Thor's old ICS rom with cornerstone. Any thoughts? JB shouldn't run like this.
[Acer Iconia A500] mixednuts:
Have you tried a full wipe, as civato suggests, before flashing the ROM?
[Acer Iconia A500] adrock74:
I also noticed this, i tried changing nova settings screen trans and animations to STOCK, and its never been smoother. :D
[Acer Iconia A500] Booboo64:
LED Toggle causes System UI crash

Here's one that I have not had before:

1) go to Settings, choose System, Notification Bar

2) Enable " Toggle LED Flashlight"

3) Exit

4) tap on date, then expand the Notification Bar

5) enable LED (nothing will happen, no LED flashlight)

6) tap again on LED and you get a "System UI" crash.

I can reproduce. Running v2.3. Clean wipe including data from my last upgrade from 1.9.

PS: I always wipe and format data :)
[Acer Iconia A500] Ikarisan:
Volume bug?

Hi!

I recently installed version 2.3 and there must be some kind of volume bug.

Although I set all volumes to the highest level the sound volume is very low when I play music or click on some buttons.

But the keyboard click sound, at the same settings, blows my ears away :(

Can't reproduse this issue with other ROMs like ICS4.0.4-RE-FLEXxx or the original Acer stock ROM.

---------- Post added at 10:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:39 PM ----------

Hi!

I can't reproduce this... ok the flashlight does not work, but system UI never crashes O.O
[Acer Iconia A500] devize:
That didn't work :( All my animations are slow and laggy, not just those from Nova. I don't know what to do about it because as I said before, I did a full wipe before installing this and it seems to have happened on previous ROMs. Animations on my ICS HP Touchpad are much better than this, so there must be something wrong considering this is JB.
[Acer Iconia A500] zok-star:
your rom has been rock solid!!! keep it up!!!
[Acer Iconia A500] Iced-Earth:
I've got a problem with my superuser app. Every time I try to use it, it force closes. After a reboot the watch crashes too.

I tried re flashing, but this doesn't solve the problem.

Any ideas?

Best regards, Markus
[Acer Iconia A500] ta-wan:
there are two fixes. 1 in the OP and 2 mentioned later in the thread.

for 1 see the op for the other erase all possible settings files for su and start fresh.

Sleep of Death

I like this ROM very quick and smooth, however I am constantly getting Sleep of Death. I was using Tabonay previously and had not experienced it before.

I have this morning done a full wipe and fresh install and ran fine without SoD untill I had rebooted. Once I had back to SoD almost every time the screen goes off. I have tried changing all the settings in lulzactive as suggested but to no avail.

Hi ! I'm the owner of an A500 and with this ROM ( V19, I'm downloading the last version), the USB key goes wrong, nearly 1/40 time it's not detected :(

Does the last update 2.3 correct it ?
[Acer Iconia A500] tazd:
Never had any version of this rom not see any of my usb keys and i tend to plug drives in and out a few times a day on my A500.
[Acer Iconia A500] riro56:
Usb key is no longer detected with v2.3
[Acer Iconia A500] tazd:
well as stated i am on v2.3 and it sees all my usb drives so i would say there is probably a fault with your usb key
[Acer Iconia A500] darkensx:
Does any one know how to get Ad-Hoc Mode working again or is there no longer a wpa supplicant that works in JB roms that allows this? For this rom of course :silly:
[Acer Iconia A500] splatoid:
The only problem with USB I have is my external hard drive crashes and causes esfile explorer to crash.I will have to try another file explorer to see if that helps.
[Acer Iconia A500] kdejong2012:
File Manager HD is a good file explorer. I never had any issues with using it with USB drives.

not working

Hi,,

I have a A500 and have flexreaper 12.5 special ICS and have tried several times to get this to work the JB rom. It just goes to ACER then no farther. I flash system reset davok and also system from via the the 1.23 and just cannot get any to work. I then reflash back to ICS and works again blank. Does anyone know why I cannot get this to work?
[Acer Iconia A500] articuno1_au:
Jesus titty ****ing Christ people, try reading the thread.

If super user or the clock are crashing, go to settings -> Apps -> clock/su -> delete the app data and clear cache.

Sleep of Death is commonly caused by an egl leak. Occasional fix is to disable the lock screen in settings. (May or may not work)

At the guy with the laggy A500: Either your boot loader is wrong, you've got a bad config somewhere or your tablet is dying. Rule out the first 2, deal with the latter.

Can you all please use the search function. This is a dev thread, not a post stupid **** thread.
[Acer Iconia A500] signfinder:
Perfect firmware. Please add A501(internal gsm modem) support.
[Acer Iconia A500] negativman:
Put this ROM, Titanium window shows that there is no root. The link in the header to set themes like BussyBox. It is not installed, gives aborted. The reason?
[Acer Iconia A500] mixednuts:
Make sure you're using an unlocked ICS bootloader.
[Acer Iconia A500] Spikelangelo:
I just want to let you know the Swype you include in Aroma is about to have its license expire. There is an error installing if you try to update through Swype's internal updater. It's an easy fix, just had to uninstall and manually install the update.
[Acer Iconia A500] splatoid:
I think you need to update your boot img.
[Acer Iconia A500] ta-wan:
yes. or upgrade/replace their user :)
[Acer Iconia A500] TFordham:

Great Rom

Once again civato has down a very fine job on an awsome rom. this is the most stable, bugless rom i have used on my iconia tab and im pretty sure is the best jellybean rom out right now. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK Civato!!!

small bug: any internet browser i use crashes if i have a video playing in 1 tab and i open a 2nd tab to browse another website
[Acer Iconia A500] ta-wan:
I've seen this bug in every ROM I've tried recently.

I suppose we are lucky to have flash at all... until more sites move to HTML5 video :)
[Acer Iconia A500] djyoshii:
what other kernels are you guys using?

I find my tablet is REALLY unstable when overclocking it to 1.5ghz via settings > performance, however leaving it at 1.0ghz seems to be fine.
[Acer Iconia A500] darkensx:
have not oc'd my tab to 1.5Ghz in jb causes too many issues atm but if you must oc it just under 1.5 like 1.4ghz and it works fine max oc tab can handle is 1.6 so 1.4 like a safe zone atm though oc doesnt seem to much anyway like it did for hc and ics
[Acer Iconia A500] bennetbr:
Bookmark Sync Problem

Great ROM. I have a problem with bookmarks not sync in the stock browser. It says sync not working at this time, but they sync fine in the Chrome browser. Any ideas?

Thanks
[Acer Iconia A500] deboyz1014:
I'm still on HC (don't laugh), so far I have zero issues but there is an urge inside wanting to upgrade to this ROM. Any justification in abandoning a perfectly working ROM for something else just because its newer?
[Acer Iconia A500] djyoshii:
Thanks. I've currently got it set to 1.5ghz with the lulzactive gov (previously it was on 1.5 w/ ondemand gov) and it hasn't crashed/rebooted so far *touch wood*

Perhaps it was due to the governor? If this turns out to be unstable i'll try it at 1.4 etc until i find something that works for me.
[Acer Iconia A500] mixednuts:
I haven't seen the sync, for the default browser, work for quite some time while trying several different ROMs... I'm quite certain that's a well known issue that seems no one cares to fix. Maybe there's work around, but I don't know. Syncing for the Chrome browser is built into the app itself.

There's that good old saying "if ain't broke, don't fix it". Nothing wrong with making a back-up and trying different ROMs, however, coming from HC it'll take a little work for you just to be able to flash this ROM (i.e. getting an unlocked ICS bootloader on your a500), so keep that in mind - that is, you could potentially go through all the work and not like the ROM. Your choice. Now, if you want my opinion, if I was in your position I may definitely go through the trouble to try one of civato's ICS cooks because I think there's a greater potential for satisfaction... just my opinion.

Definitely the governor... if using the kernel that civ packs with this ROM, take advantage of the lulzactive governor - I believe that's it's bread and butter.
[Acer Iconia A500] saeba:
My experience is that this ROM is very solid; however, I haven't had good luck running a custom launcher on it (Apex, Nova, ADW EX). They all seem to hang after some hours of use and I end up with blank screen and then have to reboot. As long as I use the default home launcher, I'm ok. But the default home launcher doesn't use the screen's real estate as well as the custom ones.

I've found some other pros and cons for this ROM: Plex will stream video using HLS which means better video resolution, but the BHTV app for streaming television doesn't work (hangs after a few seconds of playback),
[Acer Iconia A500] Zylam Marex:
Dude you are Legend, this rom is Insane. Play Far Cry 3 right now Civato, you've deserved it!!

Take CareZ

Thanks Major!!!!
[Acer Iconia A500] OKAstro:
Have you tried Go Launcher? I've been using it for a long time, and it has been stable for me. Also use it in my Samsung Captivate running SLIM JB, and it's solid there too
[Acer Iconia A500] saeba:
Evidently the Go dev team is working on a new update "Next Launcher". I was kinda waiting for it to stabilize a bit before trying it as it's currently in beta. I suppose in the interim I could try Go.

Thanks!
[Acer Iconia A500] ta-wan:
"GO Launcher for tab" is very nice.

Problem with my tablet

Hi I have a problem with my a500 tablet

Last week I install this rom with no problems, yesterday I was makin a video and when it finished the screen was blocked, I push the power to restart the tablet and it stop in the bootloader but it didn't go far from here it stays only in the "Skrilax_CZ's bootloader V8 Booting primary kernel image screen".

I could get into cwm Recovery so then i try to install again the rom via usb to see if the problem solves, but it stops on "Installing data setting permissions if you can help me. thankyou:(,

Here again:

I could install an ICS stock rom but when I reboot it this appeared "Flashin bootloader error update " ando then go black.

After that nothing happens it doesn´t start only the pówer botton lights
[Acer Iconia A500] darkensx:
lucas did you by any chance prior to having this rom have chainfire 3d installed? also before installing the rom did you do a full wipe "factory reset"?
[Acer Iconia A500] iTzGavin96:
i just use on demand and set it from 200 mhz to 1.2 ghz. 1.2 is plenty high even for higher end (ish) games but with on demand it will save on battery when power is not needed, but when power is needed, its always available (if you get where im going with this)
[Acer Iconia A500] lucas1954:
Hi didn't have chainfire I don't know what this is but yes a did a factory reset
[Acer Iconia A500] darkensx:
you mention making a video did you mean you were using the movie studio? if you were it is a broken app that google had done away

with it never left beta stage
[Acer Iconia A500] george800:
Great ROM! Thanks!

I have two questions.

1. The rotation does not work when the tablet is locked. I saw at the display settings there is an option "Rotation". There you can enable the auto rotation of the lock screen and also set the degrees but it is disabled. Is there a way to enable it?

2. When I install an app or when I save a bookmark in the homescreen it says "no more room on this screen". Why?

Again thanks for this great rom
[Acer Iconia A500] tazd:
With regard to Q1. If it is locked why would u expect it to rotate, unlock it and it will rotate ( the little silver switch on the top)
[Acer Iconia A500] george800:
Maybe I was not clear. If I am in portrait mode and push the Power button once or the screen turns off by itself and I want to wake it up, the screen is locked in landscape mode. The hardware lock switch has nothing to do with that (it is always in off position).
[Acer Iconia A500] mixednuts:
If your default Home Screen page is full it'll spit that message out every time you install a new app from the Play Store... unless you have the add shortcut option off under the Play Store settings.
[Acer Iconia A500] koudies:
Happens to me every time. And believe me, I have like 6 icons on my home screen. Maybe I'll just have to switch that setting off.
[Acer Iconia A500] george800:
My screen has only 8 icons. That appears not only when I install an app but also when I save a bookmark from the browser in the home screen. Anyway I can live with that.

One other thing that I noticed is the very low volume when I connect the headphones. Very very low. Any solution?
[Acer Iconia A500] ta-wan:
settings > sounds > safe headset volumes OFF
[Acer Iconia A500] george800:
I have done that with no results. DSP Manager also does not have any results. Is DSP Manager working to you? I installed Volume+ and I'm OK. Thanks anyway!
[Acer Iconia A500] darkensx:
I'm having one very annoying issue my wifi seems to disconnect and reconnect very frequently and sometimes when i boot my tab up it says that my router is not in range when it is i have to reboot my router to have it connect again on the tab but all my other devices can connect w/o having to reboot the router so it seems its the tab please help with this or fix asap
[Acer Iconia A500] djyoshii:
For some reason my GPS refuses to work and I've tried everything I can think of, all to no avail.

Everything I've tried, in no particular order:

- rebooted device (several times), as some here have said it's worked for them.

- reflashed the ROM both without wiping and doing a full wipe (/system & /data, the latter as per the instructions in the reflexx ROM thread).

- entered in the su + gps-update commands in terminal emulator, confirmed updated.

- tried flashing several 'gps fixes' (country specific v1.1 & v1.2 / region specific / a 'google' one) all of which have worked perfectly as described in the past on the reflexx ROM, however now it just gives me an error in CWM when trying to flash on this ROM. Therefore I've manually copied over & replaced the gps.conf file in /system/etc.

- have tried ticking the 'use internal GPS' option, and also tried leaving it unchecked after a reflash.

- tested indoors, near a window, outdoors on clear and cloudy days, at various times of day/night.

I am now all out of ideas, so I was hoping someone might be able to help me?

I've done several searches both in this particular thread and in the A500 section in general. The best result i've gotten was after replacing the gps.conf file with the country specific v1.2 file, it detected 1 (that's right, ONE) satellite but would not connect. Other than that it's just continuously displaying "Looking for GPS location..." without ever getting a lock, and other than that one time, it no longer finds any satellites either.

I'm posting in here rather than general, as this problem has only happened to me on this ROM.

Thank you

[Acer Iconia A500] OKAstro:
Ditto - I was with Thor's roms for awhile too, but his latest JB versions were constantly causing reboots and SOD's. First time with Civato, and I am impressed with the stability and smoothness.

I still use Thor's 1.7.3 recovery.
