There is definitely 2 screen protectors. the second one is more glossy and looks like the screen . It is in fact another screen protector.
[Android General] diquan2001:
Really 2 screenprotectors?? Im kinda scared to peel this one off ,its really looks like it belongs on the screen except the edges ofcourse.
[Android General] msav:
just use your finger nail and pull up a corner you will see the it will come up if it is a screen protector. you may want to leave it on there until you can put a screen protector back on.
[Android General] diquan2001:
Yeah i think il just leave it on .it doesn't bother me that much it's just a littlebit less smooth then the reall glass.

second screenprotector for sure. I removed it. By the way did someone try Onda with DVB-T dongle? I tried wit one IDTV Android tv but it didnt work. The same dongl eworks perfectly with my SGSIII

Root for onda972 and 812. http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/51226-root-v972-v812/

Think its official and comes from onda.

Tested. Works fine but superuser access in chinese. But had to factory reset after installing the update.

Tried playing around a bit. Can't get normal superuser apk to work. Will try more today.

Regarding cwm I have put cm10 repo on sync. Have a slow connection. May take 5-6 days for complete sync.

Lets take it step by step. I will try cwm first before twrp.

BT dongle

Hi all,

I'm looking forward to get one V972 but I'm just wondering whether bluetooth can be added simply plugging a small USB dongle.

What chances for it to work? Firmware will support it or need special patches?

Thanks

:fingers-crossed:
[Android General] Dvalin21:
Apparently Onda removed the bt option. So if you want to use it, you will have to wait for a custom rom.
[Android General] StefanoAS:
Thanks for quick reply, despite not what I was hoping for... I'll wait

:good:
[Android General] parajsinghal:
Okay guys a quick update. Not sure, if I should be posting it here but I will still go ahead as we dont have a dedicated development thread yet.

So last night I studied the partitions, extracted the stock recovery img and tried to build cwm recovery from the cwm online builder. I pushed it on to the recovery partition, and rebooted into recovery. Finally I did manage to get the cwm recovery interface but too bad it did not recognize my partitions. Worse, I ended up bricking my device as it went in cwm loop and on every restart I just got cwm with no keys working. :crying:

Luckily I knew that Allwinner A31 is almost brick free because the Installation suite doesn't rely on recovery and use flash mode to install firmware. So I am up and running again. I just repartioned to be sure. :good::good:

I'll keep going. I realize now that the A10 also has similar paritions structure, maybe I could get help from there. For anyone interested I am attaching the recovery.fstab which u can refer to extarct images using dd command.

PM me or write here if anyone needs the recovery or boot images. I already have then extracted. Sorry for the long post.

There is just one thing thats been bothering me. How we supposed to use CWM even if we get it working with just two keys on the tablet? Maybe I should directly try cwm touch.

Thanks. I'll keep you guys posted.
[Android General] qubbo:
Hallo every one,

I choosed Onda V972 as my first tablet because of hardware and price and i'm satisfied.

Now I have a problem with it:

when I connect it to the PC it doesn't open me the mtp/ptp options to choose, like my GNexus. I've tryed also to find them into "Settings>storage>three dots on top right corner of screen>USB computer connection" but I do not have the three dots!

I also found "mtp_usb" file into the tablet and the dimension is 0!

Any idea? Maybe a downgrade to factory?

Thank you
[Android General] Dvalin21:
If your going to go straight to touch, what would be the difference, why not go straight to twrp, or is it better to establish cwm first? (Thanks for the work by the way)
[Android General] msav:
perhaps make the back button the same as the volume up button. you would not be able to cycle up and down but you could just cycle all the way through the list and back around. I know the stock recovery for onda v972 is a pain but because you have to touch the exact line and some do not have confirmation when you press them, PITA.
[Android General] pajda88:
Did u try to put inside another speaker ? taken from f.e phone ? samsung etc

Tried Adre 2.1.

While the performance is OK (experiencing some lag), something is draining the battery. I left wifi ON and it took over 20% overnight (6-7 hours). Is that normal?

Other problem I am having is internal storage. Under settings it shows that I have 1,6GB of internal memory left (I have a 16GB model) and it doesn't recognize my FAT formatted microsd card.

I too not only have issue with practically no sound, but if I plug in the ear buds, I dont get sound unless I hold the toggle on the buds the whole time? Just what did they muck up? ( on both Kasty)

I remember in my early days when building computers, if I added a sound card before a modem I had sound and modem issues, yet if I installed a modem 1st then sound everything was good. Am wondering if this could possibly be the same type of issue

Is this how one flash kasty.

1. Turn on tab and go to Settings/Developer Option and tick "USB debugging"

2. On PC run PhoenixSuit

3. Connect USB cable from PC to tab

4. Wait for the devices to be connected

5. Once connected, click "Firmware" (Anchor icon).

6. Click the image button and select the img file of Kasty

7. Once selected, click "Upgrade".

Is that all?

Do you need to hold any button to boot the tab to flash the firmware?

I've written a complete flashing tutorial and video:

http://www.arctablet.com/blog/featu...utorial-onda-v972-v812-allwinner-a31-tablets/
[Android General] msav:
It may just be more standardizing components among the entire onda line of tablets. Like the v1 and v2 changes it may just be using the same parts as another tablet. Or some other cost cutting measure. More times than not the later revisions are either built with cheaper components or same quality component that are shared between products.

But I guess we will know for sure when someone either takes a look at the firmware or actually receives the v3 model.
[Android General] curiou5:
I have installed kasty and it feels about the same as Supernova. However, I have problem installing an app which I could when running SuperNova. After clicking install on Google Play, the app will download and install but stop with an error message "Missing Shared Library". I did not have that issue when installing it under SuperNova environment. Any tweak that I can do to install the app successfully. Thanks.

PhoenixSuit "pnpfelln error!" when connecting USB

While using PhoenixSuit to update, has anyone gotten the error "pnpfelln error!" when connecting their tablet to the USB cable? I was assuming it's a USB driver error of some kind, but haven't been able to correct it.

I've tried PhoenixSuit 1.0.5 and 1.0.6 under Windows 7 on 2 different PCs (HP and Dell).

After loading the image into PhoenixSuit (Onda stock 2.0 or Kasty) , I plug in the USB cable and immediately get the "pnpfelln error!". Hit 'okay' on the error pop-up and it never seems to recognize the device (All the while holding down home button and pushing the power button per the instructions).

I scoped the Onda bbs and in the translation there was a mention of using a different USB cable (shorter/newer cables) as well as making sure to use the port on the back of the PC vs. the front (I'm guessing for USB off the motherboard instead of a hub). Both of which I have tried... I get the same error each time regardless, unless it crashes the PhoenixSuit app, which it will do if I plug in the USB and then to open PhoenixSuit.

I have a copy of the supernova3 zip file in the extSdCard. I can boot into recovery but I can't install the Supernova3 zip file as I can't find the extsd drive.

How do I install zip from sideload.

---------- Post added at 12:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:16 AM ----------

I have done all these posted by jyams on 16 March 2013 in slatedroid.com but still can't find the external sdcard.

1)Place Supernova 3.1 WITHOUT unzipping it,so zipped, in a folder in the extern sdcard.

2)Enter at CWM,there go to Mounts and Storage and "format" System , Data, Cache, and Sdcard

3)Then *****Go back****: Wipe data/factory reset, Wipe cache partition and in Advanced section: Wipe Dalvik cache.

4)*****Go back**** and " Install zip from sdcard", and " choose zip from external sdcard", find the folder where supernova 3.1 Rom was placed.

Only different I didn't use Arctool to get into CWM.

:(:(
[Android General] kleinyair:
You can flash stock rom or kasty rom with phoenix first and then put the rom in the internal memory and flash again.

It's a lot of time but it's a solution if you stuck without the possibility to flash the rom.
[Android General] curiou5:
PhoenixSuit says "No device attached". The tablet is stuck at "Core4" therefore cannot turn on the device's adb (USB debug mode).

TWRP2500 on Onda_v972_V2-422-v23beta

I tried using it on Onda_v972_V2-422-v23beta released yesterday and really had great problems.

TWRP installed as usual procedure but the tab won't reboot into recovery. Further got stuck up at the 3rd boot logo for about 30 odd minutes. Even forced closing would only result in automatic restart and being stuck up. Luckily could flash it back to V2.0.

Please guide if the recovery ought to be changed or its a lapse on to my end!!

Thanks!!
[Android General] u669983:
Flashed the Kasty 2.3. Very good initial feeling . Only issue so far is with google account syncing which force closes continuously.

Tried factory reset , clear chash , data etc to no avail. Have had to uncheck all sync for time being. Obviously this is not a long term solution. I am hoping this will be resolve in the official release due later today .

Update - problem solved by replacing contact.provider.apk with a patched version . Link http://db.tt/3x6GdC7i

Working well so far with exception of movie playback. unable to play most common formats avi, mp4 , rmvb !

Hi Everyone this is my first post....

I also flashed the v23 beta to my V2 v972 yesterday. Just a straight flash using Pheonix.

Initial feelings were favourable but I kept getting an error message and some apps wouldn't run. I decided to go back to the v2.0 and I also got stuck in the auto restart situation. I finally managed to get it into recovery mode, flashed to v2.0 and it's working again. PHEW! scary for a novice!

Looking forward to giving the v2.2 a go once it appears.

beta test so far not bad

beta 4.2.2

last one I had no sound.

no problems with movies or ear buds or tablet sounds. YouTube plays fine. pulled that from my Samsung s3. I also use MX player.

gmail slow as snot. but play store works fine.

do get a message about android acore has stopped but isn't interferring With functioning other then the popup. at work still playing with it.

I do do the format option when doing ROM changes. if you haven't you might want to rreload

periodically you do have to hit screen firmly to make choices. but is intermitten

1 day issues

some is uptop but additional items posted in this namely to help with a smashingly good rom. If it was a windows rom I would have my kitchen up and tweaking but am new to android. Maybe some have fixes for additional issues or now that kernels are out...

touch is poor in a number of applications

front camera is grainy

when in user settings - clicking the language and input. This is where the annoying msg about android.process.acore has stopped, pops up and actually closes the settings application. at no other time has the popup closed anything yet.

gmail - web version is horrible

market works well

youtube works good no issues there. (pulled youtube from my S3 when transferring apk's to card. this version was not updated via market. is same version that came on my cell which was android 4.1.1)

Need a widget for sound and a smaller widget for turning WIFI on. the widget doesn't function as it should. still need to go into settings to turn wifi on.

Alarm clock -- DON'T USE unless you are getting up when it goes off. you have to turn the tablet off. no snooze bar or off button. going into the alarm settings doesn't allow it to be turned off.

foxfire works as it should now

SuperSU does not ask for permission to run programs when installed and launched the 1st time even though it's set to.

Battery charges fast now, however drains fast as well.

when booting or shutting down, it sounds like the camera is taking a picture.

Have not tried the Users function. can create a dummy if you want.

Don't use cell portions so have no comment on that.

4K video function works great so far.

Have not setup email accounts with business acc. yet so no comment on that.

[Android General] u669983:
The android.process.acore force closing is due to contact sync. This occurs as soon as you input a google account . It does not matter if you are in settings or not, it will happen intermittently every time there is a sync process. replacing the contact.provider apk does solve the issue
