Ok, I think I know the issue. I put on a backup and tried to delete the files within /data/tombstones, and I don't have permission. I'm rooted on the tablet. What is the best way to gain permission to I can delete these files? I think that will allow everything else to work. If I can't do it from within the tablet, if someone can point me to getting adb setup so I can change permissions that way, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance!
[Acer Iconia A500] lkrasner:
Well install adb first of all (google it for whatever os you are on). then

adb shell
su
rm -r /data/tombstones
[Acer Iconia A500] apapousek:
Eh, not my fault I don't enjoy ricing out ROMs. I prefer everything stripped down to the essentials. I don't have many changes to make, that's why I don't change things. If there was a fatal flaw that could be fixed by changing a few things, I'd do it. But there's not much of anything to do.

What's new in the build of th 15 may ?

Sync with Cyanogenmod RC ?
[Acer Iconia A500] ipzant:
Someone have the zip for Tablet UI?? What happen!!! I tried the patcher but nothing work for me. :rolleyes:
[Acer Iconia A500] bobiscool07:
Were you able to fix the Mic issue?
[Acer Iconia A500] apapousek:
Just a sync with Cyanogenmod, yeah.

I've not played around with it. I've been a bit occupied with upgrading to Ubuntu 13.04 and installing Gentoo on my laptop.
[Acer Iconia A500] kronflux:
seems a bit buggy. particularly the launcher/lock screen - if it goes to sleep while in an app, when I try to wake it up, it stays at a blank screen with the launcher background. I can get out of it by hitting settings, then back.

Also, if I touch the clock on the lock screen, it reboots the tablet entirely.

That having been said, the pros seem to outweigh the cons. very fast, very stable(otherwise)

apparently the mic doesn't work - which I think I saw was mentioned before.

Can't wait to see this rom get finished!

I also noticed that Google Now is crashing on this version, not sure if you've experienced the same issue but I have all the issues you do plus Google Now crashing.

[Acer Iconia A500] lkrasner:
To all of you people wanting updates faster, I would just like to bring up how much time and effort it takes to make something like this. a full build for 1 device requires about 40GB or more of disk space for source code, and at least 5 GB of downloaded data. With 4GB of ram and a 2.13GHz processor a build takes about 5 hours. this may get down to 1 or so with a reallly good computer. everyime you fix something, you have to do that again, meaning it takes days to get something even to the point of booting.

All I ask is that you appreciate the effort devs put into this stuff, as it is not easy and takes a lot of time, so it is impossible to release updates very quickly if they are to be any better or even working.

Thanks,

[Acer Iconia A500] kevintstephens:
Any solution for getting a fix for Google Now (it currently crashes whenever it opens) or the microphone, which doesn't seem to work at all.

Otherwise, this ROM is great! It's like having a whole new tablet! Kudos to the Dev!

EDIT: The problem with Google Now has apparently fixed itself. I can now open and use it without it crashing (knock on wood). However I'm still having a problem with the microphone (but apparently I'm not the only one).
[Acer Iconia A500] mknewman:
This is a great ROM but has two major failings.

1. WiFi is flakey and I'm always having to reboot to re-enable it after sleep. Yes I have played with the setting in Advanced.

2. Stock keyboard is STILL broken after all this time. Base system really isn't useable due to this.

Thanks though.

I downloaded a free keyboard from the market..fixed that crap..

As you say, I'd heard the recovery partition is too small for the latest TWRP. Is there any advantage to increasing the partition size? Or is that even an option?

[Acer Iconia A500] nsciucco:
Incredible work. You have given this old tablet new life. I absolutey love it. Only glitch I found are keyboard closes if going quickly. Gesture typing works well. Keep up the good work. I'm loving it.:laugh:
[Acer Iconia A500] kronflux:
yes, I've also found this. particularly in the gmail app.
[Acer Iconia A500] apapousek:
1. I'm not a dev. I don't claim the title. I'm just a cook, compiling code and distributing it.

2. I moved back home for the summer. The Internet is terrible. It takes longer to upload than it does to build. Updates will be less frequent, sorry.

3. Cats are soft. Pet them more often.
[Acer Iconia A500] RazzTick:
You should also add "have a sticky roller after you pet them and never wear black."

Glad to see someone is still developing for the A500. With all the new tablets ans phones out there seems like many have moved on but I still really like mine. Thanks for your work and for explaining the effort that goes into each build.

[Acer Iconia A500] Polarbert:
It seems from reading through this thread that this ROM is a lot more stable than the last 4.2 ROM that was on offer. I went back to 4.1 due to it being too unstable.

Is this all good?

http://edukacyjne.5v.pl/skala.html

Excellent work to the dev. Keep it up! :)
[Acer Iconia A500] Shacamus:
Very smooth ROM, stable for a day to day usage.

And, on top of this, DICE Player works on it :)

Congrats for the dev !! ^_^

Issues and feelings

I also use a third party keyboard. I have the Thumb Keyboard and it is flawless in this MOD. As with others, I have a flaky wi-fi that seems to drop it's knowledge of any connections being in range so it requires a reboot to get back online. While this is a bit of an annoyance, it is not the end of the world and when it gets fixed, it gets fixed, but until then I just deal with it. That's why it is not called a "stable and Official" MOD for daily use.

Gary
[Acer Iconia A500] nsciucco:
I have been running for over a week. Really enjoying the ROM. It's my daily. Haven't had much issues with wifi. Keyboard is only major glitch for me. I just used a alternate one .. GREAT WORK.

Please don't get discouraged by others who don't appreciate your hard work.
[Acer Iconia A500] kevintstephens:
Unfortunately had to abandon this ROM because it was too glitchy for me. The microphone not working was somewhat of a huge thing for me. Also I had LOTS of crashes and serious WiFi and GPS problems. I'll be monitoring this thread for updates to the ROM fixing the problems I had so that I can make the switch back.
[Acer Iconia A500] fdebef:
Dear apapousek, thanks a lot for this ROM! You saved our old and gaspy Iconia A500 from being thrown into the waste basket. (Yeh, with stock ICS compared to our two brand new Nexuses 7 it was really near to death...)

And now? Works like a charm! THANKS!
[Acer Iconia A500] alovingmommyof3:
Is there a complete guide for newbies? I need to update my Acer A500 because I need an app that only works for Jellybean. Unfortunately, I haven't done any rooting or custom roms in quite some time. So far, I have looked at several guides and they all confuse me. My tablet is not rooted, it pretty much is factory software. Unfortunately, I need to do this before Monday June 3rd. I wouldn't be in this mess if some unforeseen circumstances hadn't happened.
[Acer Iconia A500] fdebef:
Try Afterota, easy to use tool, that does everything for you (bootloader, recovery, root).

(Before only choose your rom and upload it to your sd. Don't forget Gapps.)

Apapousek,

I know you said you didnt have the time or bandwidth to do much anymore, but I have alot of one and some of the other (time) I synced both repos (CM10.1 and yours) today and I am in the middle of a compile now. I am a complete noob when it comes to this, can you maybe point me in the right direction as far as the compiles go, like I said I figured it out far enough to get a full compile going. It probably has a few hours left not too sure. What I am curious about is, were you just compiling the CM code to get the updates they were putting out or were you bug fixing as you went along? Help me help you, I want to see the A500 a bit more stable and realize someones gotta help you out.

Tired and probably rambling on,

Corey :cyclops:
[Acer Iconia A500] alovingmommyof3:
Now that I have jellybean mostly working, I want to thank everyone who contributed to this. Before I decided to compose this message I noticed a post saying the developer may not have time and bandwidth to do much anymore? That brings me to a question I had. Are there other developed roms I can try if I feel like experimenting?

This rom is great, except one quirk that just started happening. I can't get the regular lock screen anymore. I get this little bitty circle at the bottom of the screen. When I touch and drag my finger up, I get this half circle thing with a round google circle at the top. When I go to the google circle and hold, the google search function opens. I can tap the home button to get out of it. But how can I get my lock screen back? That was much better. I haven't changed any settings that should have caused this. But I did try changing settings to fix it with no fix.
[Acer Iconia A500] apapousek:
I've just done a straight compile for the updates, without fixing any bugs. I have neither the knowledge nor experience to do so. I use the following script to build:

echo "Clobbering Output..."
echo ""
make clobber

echo "Updating Sources..."
echo ""

2) mic - doesnt work

3) google now - force closes (mic issue)

4) wi-fi - wont connect sometimes even though in range (requires reboot)

Easiest way is to change your build prop to a NEXUS. Install the game then change your build prop back to the original I317.

Kinda like when your installing Google WALLET...

Yes yes. And your not really doing anything to your phone but switching the build prop, from one to another. With a reboot after the change. Get what you want from the PLAY STORE! Switch back, reboot done. Happy gamer now :D

Let me know if ya need help with it. I have a NEXUS build prop file if you need one k. You also need root explorer to do all of this. And it's mush easier with root explorer!!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bajanman:
What Rom you running??? :confused:You don't change any lines just switch it out with a complete different one!

Here's the NEXUS build prop you need.

http://db.tt/pc39oeGG

Your going to have to push in into the system if you know how to.

Just rename your original build.prop to

( build.propbak ), and use the one I provided. Just rename it to just build.prop!! Reboot get your games you want! After that go back into root explorer, change the NEXUS build.prop and just add the Bak on the end of it and then rename your original to

build.prop only reboot done!

Hope that helps with your problems. And I know it's a lil confusing at times.

Yes this is what I did. I pushed the galaxy nexus build.prop to /system and removed original. My problem was not backing up the original I assume. I am running cleanROM ace 4.8.0. I only asked which lines to modify because I assumed the way I did it was incorrect. I will try again!

Here's a link to the thread for it. I use it to download stuff that I've previously bought but isn't supported on our device.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Bajanman:
Ok you don't remove any build prop from your SYSTEM OK!! You leave in the original build prop, and just add Bak to the end of it. That's it!

Rename the NEXUS to just build.prop ONLY. Reboot then you can get what you like.

After that just reverse the steps you did to put back to the original build prop.

It's kinda like when trying to get GWallet to function on your PHONE!! :cool:

Started with stock, then S-off'd, rooted, and flashed a custom AOSP (can't remember the name). Everything went swimmingly for months.

Out of nowhere, I started getting "internal storage" issues. Internal storage was listed at 1GB, and started filling up regardless of if I deleted things. It seemed to cause slight problems, but nothing serious. Shortly after, I stopped receiving texts altogether. Tried flashing a new ROM, went with MIUI V5, it worked, but still no texts. Decided to start from scratch. RUU, re-root, re-flash recovery, etc etc. Ended up flashing MIUI V5 again, but got stuck in a bootloop. Tried 4-5 different hboots/recoveries/every setting imaginable, nothing. Started over again (RUU >>>), flashed MIUI V5 again, and this time it worked. Load it up, ask a friend to text me, BOOM, text received!

Open up the browser... "403 Forbidden". Wat. Nothing to do about it, it seems. I've tried fiddling with all of the relevant settings, I've downgraded/upgraded radio, nothing. I've flashed to a different ROM and back again, nothing. Just crip-crapity-crap.

As of right now, the rest of my night is going to be spent backing up/flashing to sense to do system upgrades/restoring backup and hoping it works. Anyone know what would cause "forbidden" errors, data wise? Calling/texting works both wase (not MMS, obv).
[HTC EVO 3D] thefunnyone:
I think you should try a new kernel
[HTC EVO 3D] Jikuim:
Problem was solved by backing up my current MIUI build (working minus data), full wipe, then flashing Harmonia 3.17, doing all available System Updates, full wipe, then restoring my MIUI backup. I now have data, send/receive MMS, and calling, + MIUI V5 totally working.

Finally!

Case closed. Thanks!

Your phone has to be updated to ATT 4.1.2 OTA, rooted and unlocked with FreeGee in order for this to work!

"Chameleon OS (or ChaOS for short) is a custom Android ROM that gives the user more control than they can experience on any other Android ROM. Starting with a CyanogenMOD base, we customize each piece to give ultimate control while maintaining the simplicity we all love about Android. The most notable feature of ChaOS is the theme engine, which can apply different pieces of themes in a true mix-and-match style. The launcher has been completely overhauled with tons of options that you'd normally need to download a third-party launcher for, such as home screen previews, folder sorting, and folder icon styles. The Messaging app has also had some UI retouches, including messaging bubbles and quick emoji button."
