Just flash over it :)

The install menu lets you choose
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] switchgott:
Its ok!

So no private talk :(

Any idea, why apps not use actiavted internet connection, equal its wlan or ethernet?

Whats the problem?

Maybe CM devs know.

About the mount points, do you know, what we have to chance, inside framework-res and kernel?

Maybe we can use cm10.1 defaults.

bye
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
No Idea yet what the network routing issue is, not really had time to look.

As for mount point's that problem is being caused by the vold binary, to keep exfat & ntfs we have to use the one from the TF700, hence me setting iconiaN's mount points to be the same as the TF700.

I've downloaded CM10.1 today and will be double checking a few setting's just to see if I can resolve some more issues.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] switchgott:
Iam looking to.

Maybe we found the solution.

Thanks for info.

Question:

Vorbeth, have you got a working apktools for pack and repack framework-res ??
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
I use the normal apktool, I just updated appt from the SDK
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] switchgott:
Thanks for info.

Could not found any information about routing problems with app.

Mh no idea,why apps only whant wifi,no eth0.

But whait,there is a android box,mele,which use network wired with playstore.So maybe we find the answer there

Vorbeth,next question.

Is it possible for usb devices tovget better eject??

Evertime i eject my usb hdd the ntfs gets error or the hdd is unusable.

Nit realy good.same for ntfs usb sticks.

By the way, there must be some performance tweaks for usb devices and internal devices.They are not real fast.

You made m evening

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
For eject, you need to go into setting's and choose unmount.

Not the best option, but the only one I know of.

Maybe someone can make an app that runs in the notification area and has a quick unmount menu.

As for performance, again, when I get time.

I'm back to work tomorrow, so not sure when I'll be free
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] nex86:
Thanks for updating IconiaN.

I haven't mentioned this yet, shame on me, but there is a small bug with the camera app.

Since the mountpoint for the external SD card is different, the camera app is not able to save pictures or videos on the external SD card anymore.

It just says that an SD card isn't inserted.

I think it can either be fixed by changing the savefolder of the app to /removable/microsd or the complete microsd mountpoint back to /mnt/external_sd
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
I have managed to get /mnt/external_sd working but still the camera app does not see it.

I need to sleep now, so will look at it again tomorrow.

exfat, cifs - test report

Dear Vorbeth,

Thank you for continuing your work on iconian ROM.

I have one problem though with 128GB SDXC SD card (not microSD) with USB reader - not automatically mounted.

The card have exfat filesystem.

To get it to work, i have to:

1. get mount.exfat-fuse utils binaries from xda here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1371621 and copy them to /system/bin, chmod 777 on it

2. ls /dev/block - my card is detected as sdb, exfat partition is sdb1

3. issue the command "mount.exfat-fuse /dev/block/sdb1 /mnt/exfat" (created /mnt/exfat before)

and... it works!

Now, as a suggestion, maybe there is something you just not accounted for card readers in vold.fstab that can be easily fixed?

On to other things, tested CIFS support - it works OK with CIFS manager, thank you.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] switchgott:
Hi,

this are more steps!

Its inside the ramdisk :

# for backwards compatibility

export EXTERNAL_STORAGE /storage/sdcard0

export SECONDARY_STORAGE /storage/sdcard1

mkdir /storage 0550 system sdcard_r

mkdir /storage/sdcard0 0000 system system

mkdir /storage/sdcard1 0000 system system

symlink /storage/sdcard0 /sdcard

symlink /storage/sdcard0 /mnt/sdcard

symlink /storage/sdcard1 /mnt/external_sd (NEW LINE)

# create directory for mounting usb drives

mkdir /Removable 0755 media_rw media_rw

and Framework-re.apk

<storage android:mountPoint="/mnt/external_sd" android:storageDescription="@string/storage_microsd" android:primary="false"

And the vold.fstab

But i can be realy wrong.

What about this vold.fstab layout ??

Its from notes 10.1.

Can we use it for exfat?

As I always have and always will, I work at my own pace.

Things may go slow or not get done in time for their own need's, but I am not willing to put something out that I know does not work right.

A very easy solution would be to remove exFAT fully, as it is fully due to this that the partitions are messed up.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] ExtremeRyno:
I, for one, don't care about formatting...I'm still formatted FAT32 because that's what I needed for my 64GB card to work with stock. Differences in speed seem negligible, so it boils down to catering to people who don't know how to format their microSD...But if they don't know that, then they probably won't be flashing new ROMs, either.

I am slowly leaning toward removing exFAT, it's not 100% stable even when it is working

It also requires a kernel hack I'm not 100% happy about just to get it to work

[edit]

Ok, after writing that, I seem to have resolved the partition name issues, I just need to check that exFAT and NTFS are still working.

By resolve I actually mean, I have all the original partition names working correctly and camera is working with a FAT32 formatted SDCard

Right, V2.6 has been uploaded.

I've fixed the issues with exFAT & NTFS requiring different mount names, now they don't :)

I've also updated some of the included google apps.

I'm going to spend a bit of time now looking into getting performance boosted quite a bit (if it's possible at all)

As it goes right now, the only thing really lacking is 3D performance, but that seems to be an issue of the game's being made for 720p screens, our's just does not pack enough punch to drive the 1080p correctly.

I'm also going to be adding a lot of thing's to github, so that all these tweaks and changes I am doing can be applied to fresh rom bases when/if acer release new updates.

[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] ExtremeRyno:
This may be incredibly stupid, but would changing the DPI in the build.prop have any effect on performance? I know it could lower the amount of screen real estate in the launcher and change how some apps are displayed, so might it increase gaming performance by displaying to a theoretical smaller area?

Like I said...It's probably a stupid idea.
[Acer Iconia A700 and A510] Vorbeth:
You could always try it.

I tried lowering the actual resolution to 1280x720, that sort of worked, games ran a lot better, but the screen was corrupt and the image didn't fill the screen.

probably because the A700 has an aspect ratio of 16:10, so it needs to be 1280x800.

I guess it needs to get changed in the Kernel sources?

so there is a chance that cifs support got broken in 2.6 until somebody confirms that it's still working and how to get it working.

hmm maybe there are a few adjustments on the clock and synchronisation needed.

i'm talking about those lines:

.pclk = 152000000,
.h_ref_to_sync = 11,
.v_ref_to_sync = 1,
.h_sync_width = 28,
.v_sync_width = 4,
.h_back_porch = 28,
.v_back_porch = 4,
.h_front_porch = 28,
.v_front_porch = 4,

Those were for the A700.

The ones for the A510 are:

.pclk = 76000000,
.h_ref_to_sync = 0,
.v_ref_to_sync = 12,
.h_sync_width = 30,
.v_sync_width = 5,
.h_back_porch = 52,
.v_back_porch = 20,
.h_front_porch = 64,

Hi Vorbeth,

Big work again from you.

Have a question.

A lot of people talk about touch screen freeze after a while the screen is on.

Yesterday a watched a movie an bamm,my touch screen froze.I have to make the acreen off / on again and the screen works again.

Any idea what it can cause?

Do you think its a driver problem?

You know the screen controler, model for kernel source, could acer changed some values that make the controller work worse?

Have you the same problem?

I cant believe its a hardware problem.

I guess you have a solution for all of us,have the problem. :)

The other question:What you have changed inside kernel to load the exfat and tntfs kernel modul again?

Question two:

If you press long in drawer on a icon to get it on first page,all three times i get a low klick.Its not a vibration.Its a small sound like an klick.

Does someone have it too?

I hope you understand me what i meen.A little difficult to explain.

Try it.I could generate this klick every time.Could it be a launcher problem or a display,screen controller?

Big thanks for help

I would really appreciate it if you can get this to work and maybe implement an option to switch between both resolutions.

Flashing kernels (one for 1920x1200 and one for 1280x800) would do it as well.

This might be the most wanted mod for the A700 since it still has performance issues with the latest update with some apps and especially games.

cifs support in 2.6 confirmed to work

recently i claimed the missing cifs support in iconian 2.6. after some digging in the dirt i can confirm cifs support is keeps working in 2.6. but there is still an open issues for me. as i described earlier 2.6 is my first try with iconian rom. i came from latest german stock rom (4.1.1) with unlocked bootloader, rooted and cwm touch 6.0.1.5. the installation of iconian 2.6 was smooth without any issues but now i know that the cifs.ko, texfat.ko and tntfs.ko modules have not been installed in /sytem/lib/modules so this was the reasing for the missing cifs support on my device. i had to manually copy/extract them from the iconian2.6.zip to /system/lib/modules and then i used mount manager from google play to load the cifs.ko and mount the share.

i don't know what went wrong on this or if there is other files missing. the rom runs without any issues so far, so i am still undecided whether to reinstall it or not.

another thing: i would really like to know how to get nfs support working. i did not found information about it regarding the iconian kernel but there is confirmations that it works with stock kernel and busybox mount command. if someone can shed some more light on this, would be nice.
