Modules in ONDA972-OPFT-2.0.1

Hey, guys!

I noticed that size of drivers in ONDA972-OPFT-2.0.1 much less, then stock.

For example, WiFi driver /system/vendor/modules/8188eu.ko in ONDA972-OPFT-2.0.1 has size 752 Kb and in stock 2.0 it is 13,8 Mb! That is a difference of 13 times!

Who can guess what chinese developers did with drivers to do them so small in size?

Tried that Cyanogenmod port last night, the latest one based on 2.0 firmware, standard 'wipe everything and install via CWM', first boot took about five minutes as it did a lot of housekeeping but once up and running was pretty niffy and stable, slight keyboard lag but as I type so friggin slowly I hardly noticed! It's looking good for the Onda V972

:)
[Android General] Rajata:
Hello. Which is better Kasty or Cyanogenmod??? I already have Kasty running with no problem. Just speaker still a little low but other than that it is stable with only a little lag when typing. Thanks in advance.:highfive:

Hi guys, very new to the android scene and preordered the Onda and I have to say this thread has been very helpful! Unfortunately I'm a bit of a noob with his but I'm having a problem updating to v2.0, I'm currently running v1.35, the built in update app is downloading v2.0 fine but its crashing during update giving the message: apply_patch_check("/system/app/fire reader.apk. Any ideas what I should do? I really don't want to wipe and reinstall but I will if I have to, any suggestions. Thanks very much in advance for any help.
[Android General] jyams:
You need to be using the Phoenix Flash tool that is included in the .rar download instead of the update app. The Phoenix tool runs on your laptop/pc and flashes the image to your tablet via the usb cable. I have never gotten the update app on the v972 to work properly. Phoenix works flawlessly every time, and I have flashed my v972 at least 10 times trying different roms and combinations. In the case of Supernova and other custom roms you will need to use CWM as they are .zip operations. Of course, using the Phoenix tool does wipe everything, but it is a "clean" install and gives the best results. If you use Titanium Backup Pro you can backup all your apps and then do a batch restore of your apps after you flash v2.0. Makes flashing updates pretty painless. If you use an alternate launcher like Nova, Nova backs up its own settings and when reinstalled, you don't even have to do any setup of your launcher as all homescreens restore as you had them before flashing. I use an external sdcard and copy over my internal sdcard to the ext card before flashing. Then, after flashing an update or a custom rom, simply copy over the backed-up sdcard to the internal sdcard and restore my apps. Works like a charm. That external sdcard slot is a huge feature on the v972 IMO. If for nothing else, it makes backing up the internal sd so easy. Flashing / updating and restoring is so easy.

EDIT: I've had some problems restoring the CWM backups on this device, so I use the above method, which is pretty fail safe.
[Android General] oodles1916:
Thanks very much for such a detailed response jyams, really fantastic, quick question, how would I go about copying over the apps to my microsd card, is this done on the tablet or through my computer, thanks again for the response....

stuck at recovery

Yesterday I got my V972 with 1.32 firmware,first thing I did its to flash "Kasty v2" with Phoenix and everything went well.

After a couple of time I saw the "Arc tools" and I tried to flash thru it CWM recovery.

After the flash complete I did a reboot and it goes into the CWM .

Everytime I do reboot ,it's going back to the CWM,I'm stuck in it and I can't get out from it.

I've also tried thru ADB to "ADB reboot" but still the same.

Hope someone can help me with this.
[Android General] aryanitinkumar:
Do you own a 32 Gb version & did you flash it with .kasty-onda_v972-41-v20-rooted3.zip?

It happened to me similarly but on an earlier occasion.......almost thought my device is bricked.

They modified arctools in *.3.zip to suit 32 Gb version. As of me, I used the other method of copying the recovery files in the internal memory and installing it by ADB/ terminal emulator. Need to mention that I am comfortable & happy with TWRP posted by ankar84 instead of the CWM.

Well nothing much to worry ........all you would need to reflash with stock/ Kasty using Phoenix and install CWM/ TWRP using adb/terminal instead.

Cheers!!!
[Android General] kleinyair:
Yes I own the 32gb device and I used kasty V2 not V3.

Can you please write to me how exactly to do it with adb.

Phoenix doesn't recognized my device in CWM.

Thanks a lot for your help.
[Android General] aryanitinkumar:
Sure it won't be recognized.

Turn off the device by holding the power button for 10 -20 seconds. The follow the regular Phoenix flashing method to install Kasty.

To install CWM by adb is similar to that by terminal.

Boot the phone normally

Enable USB debugging

Extract and copy the CWM -32 bit.zip ( 3 nos files) into the internal sd.

In adb type

adb devices

Once the device is shown

adb shell

su

adb busybox sh /sdcard/install-recovery.sh

done

That's it you can either reboot and go in CWM holding the home & power button together

or

adb shell

su

adb busybox sh /sdcard/reboot-recovery.sh

I hope this helps.........cheers!
[Android General] kleinyair:
Thanks, I will try it when I will be home later.
[Android General] msav:
You can also install twrp recovery via arctools instead of cwm.

I know there are some issues with cwm and the 32gb. I know they said they fixed it But i could not get cwm to work with the 32gb version.

BTW if you have a V1 in the middle of your serial number you are a V1 and should not be flashing V2 firmwares.

Do not confuse v2 with firmware 2.0

I have not heard of a report of someone owning a v2 yet.
[Android General] jyams:
I have found that copying is done faster with the tablet rather than through your usb with a laptop/pc. You will need an app to copy and paste. I use Root Explorer, paid version, as it is the most complete file manager I have found for my needs. All you do is chose the "multiselect" menu option while in the sdcard directory, then "select all" and "copy", then navigate to the sdext card (usually /mnt/sdext) and chose/make your folder where you want to backup your sdcard and "paste". For a really loaded sdcard (like I have), it usually takes about 10-15 minutes to complete the paste. Just be patient while it finishes. You will think it is frozen but it is not. It will finish. Then check to be sure the copy & paste worked, and you are good to go. Then you can flash to your heart's content. When you are done updating your rom, just copy and paste your backup over to your sdcard using the same procedure in Root Explorer. I then use Titanium Backup Pro to "restore missing apps with data" to my rom, and then you get all your apps back with their data including launchers, home screens, and app login information. Titanium stores its backup files on the sdcard so when you copy and paste all your backed-up apps come over. Works every time for me across my phone and both tablets, and my wife's phone.
[Android General] kleinyair:
Thank everyone ,I have succeeded to flash the firmware with phoenix with this solution :

load firmware on pheonix suite,make sure tablet is off.Hold down home button and plug in usb,while still holding home press on/off 10 to 20 times,download should begin.press yes to format and install.

And it's work like a magic.

for anyone wanting to do a system dump for the purpose of experimenting with customizing the stock ROM I recommend this tool. It is very easy and works great with just an ADB connection: System Dump Tool

Let me just give you guys my thoughts of Christian Troys cm10 beta.

This has some serious potential. Still not quite ready for primetime but It has made incredible progress in just 3 days.

The Good

Bluetooth dongle working

Xbox controller working

Full Google play support. (paypal,banking sites ect)

Quite snappy and actually very stable

Needs some work

Video playback and 4k Playback

Hdmi out

Now working

Slight keyboard Lag

No volume adjustment buttons

I beg you guys to donate to him. He is actually working on pretty much all A31 devices at the same time. This is our best chance to get Cm10 on our devices.

Hello, i am new one in tablet world, i buy Onda V972 16 gb V1 tablet and firmware what its inside tablet its 1.20 version, now i wont update to 2.0. And question its now: what it is better, uptade immediately to 2.0 or step to step 1.32, then 1,35 than 2.0??
[Android General] msav:
It is actually really easy. But also really easy to mess up. Make a cwm backup and if your device blank screens where the animation normally happens , do an advanced restore of just the system.

copy the bootanimation.zip file of your choosing to your sdcard.

then using a files explorer that has root (rootexplorer) rename the stock bootanimation.zip file to old-bootanimation.zip (located in system/media)

copy the new bootanimation.zip file in system/media. Then long press the bootanimation.zip file and make the permissions the same as the old-bootanimation.zip file. (rw-r--r--)

then reboot.
[Android General] msav:
Here is another one of my favorites. for the apple haters
[Android General] msav:
It is best to always do a format install. so That being said Start from scratch with the latest and best firmware. so you don't have to start all over again. Lately OTA updates have not been working so pretty much count on backing up your apps with titanuim backup or starting from scratch every time you upgrade.

I believe the reason why we have so many people with weird problems and corrupt installs is from trying to overwrite instead of starting from scratch. It may look like it is working fine at first but then weird things start happening.

I now always do a format install and have never had a weird issue pop up when i have done so.

Thank you my friend! I'll give it try tomorrow! Cheers :highfive:

Adrenaline 2.1 canceled.........Says STEVE_MARS

[/COLOR]

Hello, comrades.

Troy Christian, the creator of the compilation does not want to use the base for customization. Want to develop an add-on, but in my point of view does not have the same effect.

their decision must be respected, so not publish any Adrenaline based development.

Nevertheless, I'll make one for my own use, and who I love her the request by mail to stevemars.spain @ gmail.com

For my part there is no problem that compartais among you, but not for me to post it.

I ask respecting their request, the final analysis is the father of the child.

I will focus on further improving firm based SuperNova original.

I think right now the best combination is to use official ROM V.20 with the build.prop from Adrenaline 2.0 ROM. I found that this build.prop fixes many application and games compatibility in google play store.

I suggest to use third party software like ROM Toolbox Pro to change the build.prop. Don't forget to reboot the tablet after changing the build.prop.

I attached Adrenaline 2.0 build prop if someone needed it. Put this file in this directory /sdcard/romtoolboxpro/backup ... and choose restore from the rom toolbox pro application.

Please rename the attachment from .txt to be .prop

I did the same mistake. Wouldnt boot.

Did advance restore CWM. Restore system. Then it boots with old build prop.

Edit! My bad. Forgot to to set right permissions after change of build prop.

Now im running on latest Kasty with Adrenaline 2.0 ( C.Troy) build prop. I like it.
[Android General] stuntgp:
I think the grey screen is normal, it means that stabilizing file system, don't turn off. You need to wait about 10 minutes. After that, it will boot normaly.

Regarding the backup folder not available, it just I did the backup of original build.prop before.

But please do CWM backup before doing this :)

Got my Onda today. What is the most stable and fluent ROM available at the moment (including flashing tutorial)?
[Android General] minerva1961:
Supernova 4 (thanks to Steve Mars),

From the top of my head...

Copy SN4 to ext_sdcard

1. Install Arctools

http://www.arctablet.com/assets/tools/arctools/com.arctablet.arctools.apk

2. Install Apps (this is Clockworkmod) from Arctools - you need to let Arctools download CWM first, it's a small download.

3. From Arctools Reboot into Recovery - probably need to allow Admin privileges at some stage

4. Wipe data/cache

5. Mount ext_sdcard

6 Install zip from ext_sdcard

That's it roughly from memory as I'm at work, others will want to chip in and suggest other ROMs for Newbies ;)
[Android General] weaselEST:
"Copy SN4 to ext_sdcard"

Does this mean the external microsd card?
[Android General] minerva1961:
yup..or copy it to sd_card (the internal one).. then you don't need to mount ext_sdcard..

It's really quite illogical to have a folder in the file system called sd_card...I'm sure there's a logical programming reason to do that but jeez...it's like having a folder on my windows box called 'Floppy'.or 'Men Stick'..would cause great confusion...

Tried them all, from my experience Adrenaline 2.1 lets me run the most applications, music players in particular seem to be a bit fussy so on my GF's Onda I have Adrenaline.

On mine I have Supernova 4 because it just seems brisker and more responsive than any of the others but that may be just a subjective thing, benchmarks all seem to be about the same, my feeling is that any ROM built on version 2 of the firmware runs very well but stay well clear of any version 1 based ROM's
