Sorry dude, but unfortunately it isn't that simple. For some information, please read Here

For when GPS is not working:

Open Terminal emulator

type

su (enter)

gps-update(enter)

If this doesn't update do the following:

With a filemanager with root permissions

data/gps/lto.data , delete this lto.data file and re-do all the GPS update steps with the terminal.

This may be the only fix for the GPS.

Having said that, you can expect a new update coming out either today or sometime in the next few days. It won't look like much on the outside but internally it will more stable and will fix a few bugs as well.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] SlavPala4a:
I have tried almost everything without any luck... Up until I decided to wipe it all. And the strangest thing happened : after FULL WIPE including "system" and factory reset, TWICE. However I still have all my apps, accounts, passwords as if I dirty_flashed it.... What is that phenomenon?

Since I have done the 1.6 update I am experiencing temporarily lags: while multitasking, opening SwiftKey for writing, starting chrome. It is strange because the tablet is generally flying but every other task it lags for second.

How to install it as clean as possible?

P. S. Now GPS is just fine.

---------- Post added at 09:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:00 AM ----------

Is it possible to tune something up: when I am writing, very often I hit instead of space key the black part of the status bar. As a result the keyboard hides itself. If I am in the ebay app, writing a message this will close the dialog window and wipe the message....

Therefore is it possible to make the black part of the status bar(between clock and 3 soft buttons) inactive when typing?

Thanks
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] SlavPala4a:
I am willing to help you as much as possible in order to develop one hell of a nice ROM.

I TURNED zRam OFF and I feel it snappier at the moment.

What about purging assets?

Lets define a baseline for the best configuration in performance tab: 1 optimal batt; 2 best performance.

As I'm preparing the tab for incar dashboard install, I don't care about battery, I just need stability and performance.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] SlavPala4a:
One more thing... The buttons in the quick settings tab have too small area of touch recognition. For example: the clear all notifications button has to be pinpointed in order to recognize the touch. All the ON/OFF buttons need the same optimization, because most of the time instead of turning ON/OFF, the WiFi for example, I go to the WiFi settings...

Hope you caught my rather complicated explanation.

Have fun!

That's a lot of information posted and I'll try to cover as much as I can.

In terms of the wiping, not sure what is going on there. When I factory reset, my data is gone (as in data apps, account info etc). I only do it once and it works every time.

Lag will happen from time to time. Remember that this is an old tablet with underwhelming specs for the version of the OS it is running.

Your space bar problem might be fixed in my next update, as I am running it right now for testing purposes and touching the black space with Swiftkey does not cause the keyboard to hide itself.

You might need to explain this part. Not exactly sure what you are trying to ask here.

Yea the buttons are a little hard to press. That's going to take decompiling and modifications to SystemUI.apk that may or may not be possible to do.

Update - Version 2.0! New Name!

July 10 2013

- MANY changes under the hood. Doesn't look like much from the outside but trust me, its different

- Gave it a new name to reflect Pio_masaki's contributions

- Fixed the hardware rotation lock

- Fixed the torch, however it still isn't available as a widget. You can install flashlight apps from the play store to make it work.

- Stability is greatly improved

- Added in some 4.2 goodies - sounds, fonts, and a few apps in the Aroma installer

- changed the bootanimation

This one I would suggest a full wipe before installing. New Aroma is up now too.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Anhell:
will give a try as soon as possible, i´ve installed civato`s previous rom to my father´s tablet and worked good, but had touch responsiveness problems.

So i really want to give a try to your rom, btw it has TRWP recovery, so i´ll tell how it goes.

Thank you for the hard work you´re putting in it :)

regards
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] TheLoonyRebel:
Must say the changes done under the hood really are making a difference. While the previous version (1.6) ran pretty well it seems like there's a little extra bit of smoothness on 2.0 compared to 1.6. Great work!
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] SlavPala4a:
I want to establish a baseline for the best setup. I mean, what should be the settings in performance and dev options TABs for:

1. Best performance = less battery

2. Allrounder

For example: with or without zRam, 216MHz min or more, ditter on NO ....etc

I am downloading the ROM now and soon will be pushing it to the limit :)
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] SlavPala4a:
I experience something very strange. If I wipe: cache, dalvik,factory,system then apps do not wipe.But if I do factory reset first than it wipes clear?

What is the ultimate way to make a clear install?

Thanks
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] hardslog:
CWM recovery correct? Or are you using some version of TWRP?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] myster1ous:
Is the Play Store included? Don't see it. Tried downloading a few apks and the Play store fc's.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] hardslog:
Works ok for me. Anybody else having trouble with the party store?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] TheLoonyRebel:
Play Store is working perfectly for me here. One thing I have noticed that is missing however is the option to edit the status bar options or whatever its called after you press around the clock area and it pops up the thing that then gives you stuff like airplane mode, wifi, etc. I know that 1.6 had the ability to change what is there but oddly enough 2.0 is missing this.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] SlavPala4a:
It is TWRP by me...should I move to CWM? Link me there

Thanks

Btw, NO GPS or Playstore problems.None at all!
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] hardslog:
Yea, SystemUI and Settings are completely different APK's in this version. That's why I said lots of changes under the hood. No phablet mode either, but if people want I could make a CWM zip to flash phablet mode, but to be honest I hate it LOL!

If TWRP is working fine for you other than the wiping thing I would leave it with TWRP. At least it is more up to date and you can run nandroids and save them on the microSD card, which you can't with the old CWM that runs on these devices. I just use CWM because I'm too lazy to switch lol.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] TheLoonyRebel:
Yeah I'm not a fan of phablet mode myself. I do miss the one feature I mentioned above but I'm assuming there's no way it could be added back in a future version perhaps? I'm not familiar on what it takes to get it added in otherwise I could try to do it myself. :(

Also to briefly plug here I had uploaded new TWRP installers featuring the latest build for the A100 (2.6.0.0). It's posted in the TWRP thread. If you've been on 2.2.x.x or whatever it's well worth upgrading as it's quite a bit faster and better running overall.

I have updated the OP with a flashable zip for Phablet mode.

In terms of adding the changable notification features in tablet mode, not sure I'll be able to do that because of my limited skills. It does work in Phablet mode though.

hello i have one question im witb twrp recovery and how to wipe flexrom
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] dwsco:
Upgraded from 1.6 and I'm finding this version much quicker and problem free *except*.. when I try to long press a hyperlink in my email so I can paste it somewhere else, it doesn't work. Nothing happens at all. Same on a web page.. try to long press a link, nothing. I can long press any other text and get the selection sliders and 'edit' options at the top of the screen but no response on any link. This worked fine in 1.6. Anyone else? Again, apart from this, Rom is great! Thanks for sticking with development for these devices.

NVM... seemed to be caused by Enhanced Email app... Once I reinstalled that everything works as it should. Again, great improvements, thanks!
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] hardslog:
I wouldn't worry too much about it. TWRP might not have that option and it is just a Acer thing. The rom should be wiping it when it installs anyway. Perhaps another TWRP user could confirm this though because I use CWM
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
Unless something changed I don't think twrp touches flex, not that it matters, non stock ROMs don't even look at it.

No terminal Emulator FC here. Perhaps try to reinstall it? As for Mobo, yea it's crashing alright, but I see in the app reviews a lot of A500 users complaining that the newest update borked it for some reason. I know that other video players work so maybe try another one?

I wouldn't post it if it wasn't for daily use :P

Great! I Will test it :D You have plans to update this ROM soon?

And sorry for the off topyc but, why many devs abandon the devolpment of the tablet?

And, there some posibilities of have cm10.1 running in this tablet?

Saludos desde Argentina!!

[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
I didn't abandon it, I'm still here, the reason I stopped developing for it, personally, because of some issues with users and the tablet bricking randomly and Acer refusing to fix it, not patch it until out of warranty to die again.

And I don't have one. Plus its pretty old for android devices, most got newer devices long ago. If I still had one I'd still be developing on it :p

The trees are available for 4.2, some users have said they'll do it, nothing ever showed up, hard to say about that.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Snowers96:
Thanks for the info, i´m a noob for tablets but i have Android phones for some years :)

And, what is the problem of the tablet? I see that have ramdoms Bricks, how fix this or we can´t for now?? It´s the EEMC Brick no?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
Its a bad choice of hardware, Acer used emmc modules known to die prematurely, no way around it.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Snowers96:
Bad luck for me, my tablet was purchased two years ago or so, and just now get my hands because my sister did not use it. Hope you do not happen now.

One question more, what mean "not patch it until out of warranty to die again."?

Sorry for my stupid question
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] pio_masaki:
What they do is replace the board with a new/refurbished board with exact same issues, and when it dies again its out of warranty and no longer their need to repair it.

We're going a bit OT here though, so we may want to continue this elsewhere.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] Snowers96:
Sucesfully installed in my tablet!!!

It´s a great ROM!! :) But for now, i have a bug: Photosphere not working and have FC :/
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] hardslog:
Yea bad news but photosphere will likely never work. I think the tablet is missing hardware for it.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] TheLoonyRebel:
To be honest since many of us probably have devices with better cameras on them this is not a big deal. Thanks for the efforts on trying to get photosphere to work however. :good:

Does this rom allow for moving installed apps to the external SD card?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] hardslog:
There are apps in the play store that allow you to move applications to the external SD card. Most of them are called things like GL to SD (root) or something along those lines. Do you run a lot of apps, or do you have some of those games that take up a crap tonne of space?
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] droidxxxxx:
I am on the zero null green rom ATM..and the apps don't even seem to support the option. I might try this rom again and see if it works. I have a bunch of kids games and books and need to get them on my ext storage if possible. The SD card app says 54 can be moved..but there is no option for it. Heck..I can't even find the folder all the books are in. I think it uses omBook to read them, but I can't find the folder anywhere, and I am using root explorer. I just don't want to download all that again. I can't even download TB because its too full..lol

I think I know your problem. Your phone makes an ad hoc WiFi signal and we don't support it by default, BUT there is a way to do it. And it did work. Newer devices use infrastructure instead of ad hoc. My old 2.2 phone wouldn't either.

umm, anyone have an older copy someplace? :>
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] hardslog:
Here is the link to 2.0: http://d-h.st/gea

Must be some signature verification issues with 2.1, which would explain why dirty flashing works, and clean does not.

Dirty flash essentially means flashing the rom over a previous version of it without doing any wiping or formatting. Dirty flashing can work if you are flashing a newer version of the same rom, but if you are dirty flashing a different rom, bad things will likely happen.

Lol.....wasn't the best at elaborating there.......sorry :)

Yea....on further investigation DSP manager is crashing whenever I play audio of any kind. I'm playing around with it to see if I can figure out if its something simple or not.

Also, there are issues with GPS....no locking of any kind.

I dirty flashed 2.1 to 2.2 and added the phablet mode. After my issues this morning I did a complete reset. Nothing fixed so far, but I'm still pokeing around. I work 3rd shift so I get to play a little more with it tonight.
