[Acer Iconia A500] mrlamo:
I keep seeing these things go for less than $50 on Ebay, all of them stuck in recovery or at the Acer logo, etc. I'm looking at snapping one up since it's praised soy well on here.

What do you guys think?

What are my chances of unbricking it?

Some are almost new condition.

I figure for $50 or less I can always take out and sell the digitizer, LCD, battery and get most of my money back. Or I could buy one of the cracked ones and get one good one still for under $100.

Any questions I should ask the seller?

Also any good recommendations for a keyboard and case in 1?

I'm pretty experienced with the whole rooting/ flashing scene, but I don't even try developing.

Thanks in advance, though I'll hit the thanks button too.
[Acer Iconia A500] dibb_nz:
Yep some of them can be unbricked but you'll probably need the cpuid for that... some of them could have dodgy chip issue, only a new mobo will fix those ones....

Might wanna have a good read thru the guides in my sig specially the first two - things are done quite differently on the Acer compared to other android devices.

Don't think u can go too wrong grabbing one or two of these tabs as long as you're fully aware of the pitfalls...someone was saying new mobos on eBay for 50$...u could go into Acer refurb bizzo...as far as I know there have been no other reports of hardware failure other than the chip issue
[Acer Iconia A500] jsimonson0:
A new MB on eBay will also be anywhere from $60-80, so for the initial $50 + new MB, you'll have a pretty decent 10.1" tablet for ~$125 + 20-30 minutes of elbow grease that will run JB, ICS, or a couple of flavors of Unix. I love it because it has a grown-up USB port for an external drive (I load movies on a 2.5" SATA drive and carry it in my briefcase).
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Man, wish I was in the States to pick up on some of these! Could un-brick them, then re-sell them on the Moscow Market for a couple hundred!!!!!!

The 500/501 is basically bullet-proof, unless you physically corrupt the internal memory. And that only happens in a small percentage.

The UID can be obtained via a linux environment. But with all unbricking methods, some work where others don't. And sometimes you have to have a little indepth knowledge of android and linux.

Once that's done, just a matter of finding the sweet spot.

I get kind of leery when I get something for free for a time, then have to pay for it.

I understand that I the Note comes with 50G on DropBox free for 2 years.

Checking their web page I can't get a clear answer on how much it would cost me after that.

I keep in mind that right now you can get a 8G card for about $6, and should be able to get 32G for about $10 in two years.

Plus even in these times of inflated HD prices I can get 2T for about $70.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] rtan73:
9.99 per month for 100gb

19.99 per month for 200gb

49.99 per month for 500gb

Not worth it for most I would think.

I also have the free 50gb but also have 10gb on top of that. You can get a lot free space by referring, and tweeting.

Dropbox is not the same as having an micro sd card. Any file I'm working on is automatically available to open my phone, tablet or desktop. It saves me the trouble of having to manually transfer to each device.

It's not really meant as permanent storage for your files, just a way for all your devices to have access to them. I still save the files from dropbox to my local memory using "file sync", which is also automatic.

If your looking for a place to store your media files such as music, Google Music is free for 20,000 songs.(does not go by size of file, only by number of tracks)

Hi,

After a bit of research I'm thinking 32 GB is the limit for the Vivid (though you might get higher cards to work maybe) . MicroSDHC will work (32GB limit),MicroSDXC may not...

Class 10 should work w/o issue

News for PA: https://plus.google.com/107979589566958860409/posts

Beware of the complications of the new folder structure in 4.2, see the CM 10.1 discussion thread for more info. This of course does not apply to the CM9 build.

CM9 is based on the ics-release branch, it is the most stable/smooth release here.

AOKP is based on the jb-mr1 branch, meaning it is 4.2.2.

PA is based on the jellybean-legacy branch, it too is 4.2.2.

PAC is on the cm-10.1 branch, again 4.2.2.

Phone calls seem to be broken on the latest builds, also I've noticed the absence of a menubutton on the latest PA, looking in to that...

Great!! An AOKP rom for our tablet! I really like AOKP rom. I have two GT 8.9 3G version, one run with AOKP Milestone 6 (ICS 4.0.4) and the other run with CM10.1.

Tonight i try this rom (in the tablet with CM10.1) and then feedback you.

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] carmobileproject:
The rom is amazing! There are a lot of features for customing the UI (status bar, navigation bar, ecc. ecc.) much more than CM. For this i love AOKP....

My keyboard works perfectly. The build are early but stable.

The gsm call works (but when screen go off the sound mute).

The hotspot wifi (tethering wifi) is NOT working. :(

Anyhow the project is excellent and i hope will be continued....

Tryed the USB Host with a pen drive FAT32 and works fine.

Finally I get my Tablet UI back - tusen tack! Installed right on top of CM 10.1 without hitches (as expected).

Looks really promising, only caveat I've found so far is Netflix refusing to show movies in anything else than portrait. Seems like there might be some rotational issues still left. Apart from that it's really stable for an early build. Looking forward to the future of this ROM!

Lo and behold - a new release below the radar! :D A little reluctant considering the lack of changelog and the word "untested" but too curious not to try it...

Rotational issues (apart from boot logo): 0%

Smoothness: 100%

Best ROM yet for my GTab - I don't know how you do it but whatever you do don't stop! I'm simply amazed. Strong words, I know, but this is all I ever wanted.

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] addem1234:
Will be installing it on my own tablet now as I didnt have it at the computer. Also I have done nothing but built this, any performance difference (over cm 10.1) is all on the AOKP team. As for changelog you can have a look the AOKP gerrit to see all the things that are added, though that is quite the read since it includes every little change to anything. The the AOKP official build changelogs are sadly not going to be quite right so I haven't bothered.

PA - ?

And what are known bugs? Does 3G work with CM9 and AOKP?

Thanks a lot!

For me it seems to still be charging though it is not saying it is. Obviously its slow though.

Jellybean roms are a bit choppy and their bootanimations are a bit off, other that that I don't know of any problems.

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] pik1:
Thanks for the ROMS addem1234!

After trying AOKP and PA I am now on CM9. This is by far the smoothest custom rom.

The only thing I don't like about it is the design of the notification bar... but I can live with that. There's still LMT Launcher, right ;)
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Idlekilla:
I agree. It looks like someone has jumped on the clock font :p Also the bootanimation

is crap, but I changed that to CM10-animation.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] pik1:
yeah, I changed mine to the galaxy nexus bootanimation
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] addem1234:
Is it broken somehow or is it just plain ugly? :P

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] jd1639:
Don't know about the device tree. And no on cm 10.1. There is a cm 10, but that's as far a deployment has gone. Development has been pretty much non-existent for awhile.

There is something new in PA or AOKP 04-26 builds that could cause me kernel panics when device is sleeping? Happened to me always when device goes to sleep when it's plugged to the wall charger and when it's on battery too.

I revert to aokp_p5wifi_unofficial_Apr-18-13.zip to see if it happens too. I'll report later.

PD: last_kmsg attatched
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Jnn1:
I had a similar SOD problem with the 04-26 version, and returned to the 04-18. But I admit I dirty flashed the 04-26 over the 04-18, so I wasn't sure if it was a bug. Waiting eagerly for the next update!!
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] jolinnard:
Thanks, I dirty flashed first, but when I start having the kernel panics I decided to factory reset, but problem persist so I think it's not related to a bad upgrade.

And I tried to flash A1 kernel, but unfortunately wifi doesn't work :(
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] addem1234:
Latest PA and AOKP are having some issues with wifi related to the new bcmdhd drivers, for me the problems haven't been too bad though if you guys want i could revert to the old driver for future builds. The thing is pershoot has updated his repositories and C-o-M's aren't completely compatible yet, (3g device tree does not have bcmdhd support), therefore I have built the kernels from source. Maybe I did something wrong when setting up the kernel builds, or there is some other configuration problem.

No ETA on reverted versions of PA and AOKP, possibly some time this week if there is interest in them.

Edit: Also the wifi driver requires some edits to the kernel, so the A1 kernel not working is expected.

Edit2: Might be able to mirror some changes pershoot has done to the kernel. Though they seem irrelevant.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] jolinnard:
Thanks addem, for me it's totally unusable with new bcmdhd drivers, so yes I'm interested to revert it to lastest stable. Maybe we need to wait until C-o-M update his source.

Just my opinion.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] DemonGloom:
That would be great if you do this and share patches, as my sgt7 doesn't work with new wifi driver also..
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
Amazing battery life with the CM9 Rom when in idle. Losing around 5% per day. Still 64% left after just over a week, not too shabby. Wifi always on, some widgets, usual background tasks :D
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Ammo90:
Which version of CM9 are you using? any bugs/problem?
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] addem1234:
Have you built the kernel from source? The p5wifi kernel in C-o-M's repos is updated for bcmdhd. Those minor changes i mentioned were already implemented in the kernel so its back to the waiting game or a revert. Opinion?

Commits to be reverted:

https://github.com/pershoot/android...mmit/e9c1d243ac879e5745e654d3ff6b74a0f9e748c7

https://github.com/cmorlok/android_...mmit/eab804d428c700dbc34ffee19ed6df72db9a4f63

3g version hasn't been updated for bcmdhd by C-o-M.

Probably the wifi version in the OP of this thread. Since it's posted here and I don't see any mobile data battery drainage. Also I haven't seen any major problems being reported here regarding the CM9 build.

Secret edit for those who care: Trying something right now, might improve things but honestly I have no idea if it will.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Ammo90:
Thanks mate. The 3G version of CM9 in OP also is working great right since I am using P7300. Downloading the ROM, hopefully all is great, already bored with stock ICS.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] Pfeffernuss:
The one in my sig :D Wifi-only version dating april 20th. No bugs found as of yet, but I also haven't used it a lot to be honest... Am always first trying out the battery usage before deciding to use a Rom for a while. Have installed all apps and games and tried them one by one without any strange things or failures so we'll see :cool:
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] DemonGloom:
Yes, i build it from source. Seems that C-o-M just forgot to add module to p5 device tree..

Just add bcmdhd from https://github.com/cmorlok/android_...mmit/eab804d428c700dbc34ffee19ed6df72db9a4f63 to p5 tree and manifest, that should be enough. I'll try this also tommorow.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] addem1234:
This works, it's what I did for the latest PA and AOKP builds though there seems to be problems.

Edit: New untested builds with slightly modified kernel available. Testing wifi version right now. PA only for now.

Edit2: Wifi functionality seems to be improved, AOKP builds on the way. 3g is still untested though i hope this will fix everything...

Edit3: DeamonGloom: I replaced the bcmdhd and bcmdhd_samsung directories in kernel/samsung/p5/drivers/net/wireless/ with the ones in pershoots galaxy-31 repo, and then built the ROMs using integrated kernel build (which I might have mis-configured before). Of course replaced the dhd.ko files with the new bcmdhd.ko files too.

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] addem1234:
Not much i can do about the charging thing i think. :(

Is this on a clean install? Does is happen right after boot or after something you did? Is PA doing the same for you (I'm having no problems with PA.)? Help me help you, I honestly don't really see whats wrong in that log :(
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] jolinnard:
No, it's dirty flashed over aokp_p5wifi_unofficial_Apr-18-13.zip. No problems in 04-18, so I get back to it.

The kernel panic happens when screen turns off and it is unplugged to USB (maybe there is something that power collapse the wifi chip when screen turns off ?? ). It's really weird and I don't know why happens only when screen is off. I haven't Tasker or SetCPU profiles, so CPU is always set to 1400-216, interactive, deadline. In 04-18 this setup is working really well, smooth and stable.

I will try PA later, but I love AOKP in my tab ;)

Thank you for your concern.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] addem1234:
I would recommend at least trying a wipe, of course you will have a nandroid backup to go back to. Going to try to reproduce the issue with my tablet.

Edit: getting reboots when i turn the screen off->wait->screen on, with no USB connection. No kernel panic.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] jolinnard:
This happened to me too... last_kmsg that I attatched before was after one of this reboots.
[Galaxy Tab 8.9 Android Development] addem1234:
I ****ed up the configs, take the kernel from the latest PA build and everything will be fine. Fixed build is on its way if you feel like waiting.

Edit: Done, check the OP.
