Hey Guys,

Gonna get our forum made over on AndroidSPIN made tomorrow :)

Here is the way I see it, XDA will not support something that isnt going to make their pockets larger. I heard that last year they made $25 Million (yes, million), i mean it isn't unbelievable, the host f*cking barbeques and have 30 ads on every page with 5 million plus users. Think about it, our little page has 130 something thousand views, imagine phones with development pages that top half a million views easy, and they are repetitive, meaning that there might be 15 different threads in one section with half a million views, and XDA supports god knows how many devices. In their mind, our device isn't gonna make a significant impact on their earnings so it isn't worth the space, smh.

To hell with it though, The forum moderator over at AndroidSPIN is going to get it up and running for me tomorrow unless something comes up. Post your thoughts, inquiries, roms (after we badger them for source lol) and everything else at AndroidSPIN. Then once this device becomes badass and they add a forum section for it, yes it will happen, seen it too many times before, stick with AS.

The best of both worlds approach is to create your main thread in the androidspin forums, and create the exact same thread here but link it back to the AndroidSPIN thread (which will contain the actual download link). I used to do it on themikmik.com, and there is nothing against it in XDA rules.

This helps you guys because with me being an owner of the device, you contact me with a rom/mod/kernel/whatever and I can get you a story quicker than you would on XDA. We have 100s of thousands of readers, so you will get noticed. Use XDA as an additional outlet if need be. Therefore, you get all the views without missing a dedicated home.

I really love the camaraderie in this thread. 1000s of posts and no flame wars, amazing! Also, I would love to see some more roms guys :) I'm working on my own stuff soon, but i just moved and my 3g keeps disrupting the download of XE's stock rom (could somebody mirror it so I can download it from somewhere else?) so I can't do anything, but I used to do a little deving for the 3vo, and Im interested to see just how much I can do with a little APK tool on this nifty little thing :)

keep up the good work guys

Spoke too soon! WiFi not working

So, I followed all of the above but here's the thing:

The CWM Touch Recovery is gone and I'm back to stock Recovery. THANK YOU!

The update installed but eventually reached an error giving me a figure of android with the red triangle. Had to reboot the device and it seemed to have updated. HOWEVER, I cannot connect to WiFi anymore. The device sees my network, goes to authenticate and getting IP... but nothing. Won't connect.

HELP again please?

SHould I just go to WalMart and tell them that the WiFi isn't working and they'll give me a replacement?
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] datfat:
What have you tried to correct the issue?

Make sure the date and time are correct, sometimes mine resets the date and correcting that reconnects Wifi.

[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] californiarailroader:
No, I'm asking why the Sero 7 Pro is connecting to my Netgear R6300 at 65 Mbps when a Nexus 7 (II, 2013) is connecting at 150 Mbps. :) I have a 50/10 Blast! Connection with Comcast, but the Sero 7 Pro seems to only be able to take advantage of half of it, the chip they used in it must be a slower one. I'm wondering if what somebody else on here said is right, Hisense likely created the Sero 7 Pro with a bunch of surplus 2012 Nexus 7 8 GB boards, because that's what they connect at, 65 Mbps, or at least they used the same wireless chip.

Does turning off power save under WiFi settings make a difference?
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] californiarailroader:
It doesn't for me. Others are seeing the same speeds on other routers, so I'm thinking that it's not going to get any higher speeds as the WiFi chip used simply can't do any more.

Sorry. Didn't really mean to push any buttons, if I did.

I'm not sure why one is faster. Makes sense that it's the chip, I guess. I'll do some testing and report back.

As for the fan/dev/whatever site....

So far, we have several people going off in different directions...

Setting up forums, offering web space they already have, setting up sections on other forums, registering domain names...

I think it would do us all some good to slow down and come to a consensus of what we want and who is willing to do what.

If you want to run your own setup, more power to ya!

However, if you are looking to be involved with a community project, then it would probably be better to get your ducks in a row before you start pulling any triggers. ;)

At this rate, we're going to wind up with multiple communities, all under maintained and under utilized...if utilized at all.

Don't get me wrong, the enthusiasm from so many is a great thing to see... I'm just suggesting more thought be put into the process (hopefully just one) before it is executed.

It only cost me $20 for a year to set it up I think that's worth having custom ROM's for my S7P. If it don't get used I will use it for myself, I just won't be able to keep it up to date as much.

XDA don't make a section for every device out there, but this one has a lot of users, and a lot of potential for custom ROM's. We do need something to start to keep up with everything there is and a place to find everything.

This is how I did it.

1. Use minitool and delete all partions on the SD card.

2. I have a 64 GB SD. I created a 55 GB fat 32 primary partition.

3. I used the remaining space to create a primary ext4 partition.

**NOTE - you will get an error saying Windows won't recognize a second primary partition. Ignore the warning. The ext4 partition has to be set to primary.

4. I put my SD card in & booted up the tablet.

5. I installed/started Link2SD. It says it needs to mount a partition.

It then prompts you to select a partition. Select ext4.

6. It will say it needs to reboot to mount the partition. Reboot.

7. After it reboots, start Link2SD & start linking apps.

**Note - you cannot select the move option...it's not supported.

8. After you finish creating links for all your apps, reboot again.

That's it.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] transitoyspace:
thank you. I guess i needed to restart the app.

I completely killed the SD card though so going to see if i can get it replaced since i got it a couple days ago.

windows, linux or android wont recgonize. chkdsk and other programs cant fix it and say its a bad disk.

so maybe it might be the sd card i got was bad

I'm currently running the ROM from post #3 (XE-Sero7ROM (TabletUI) v².¹ [P756.6.02.11.00]). I understand that Hisense has issued an OTA update. Is it true that the only way to get the update is to revert to stock? Is there anyway to have both the update and the latest ROM?

Pete
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] Gster09:
Xbox updated the ROM files in post #3 to the latest update (v2). They are now available in both 180 and 213 DPI. If you want to flash without losing any data, he also created a flashable zip for that which I believe is in post #2... but alas, that does bring you back to stock.

But if you're running a v2 ROM that means you're running a version with the update already.

65Mbs? And your complaining? I only get an average of 20 Mbps and I think that's fast. And that's sitting right next to the router. I am using an Asus RT-N56u router. It's not that old and it was rated one of the fastest on the market when i bought it. But then again my internet connection is only 20 Mbps, So my wifi is as fast as my internet connection

There is an app I just "discovered" called inSSIDer. It will scan all WIFI connections and tell you if you need to change the channel on your wifi connection.

When I first started the app it told me that I was on a channel with 8 overlapping AP's (access points) and I was only able to use 23% of the channel. I found a channel that had 0 AP's connected and my speeds jumped by 8Mps.

Give it try, its free and on the google app store.

[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] kngdmond:
I'm not sure why CWM didn't install. You're the third person that this has happened to. In what order did you do things? Was your tablet stock, then installed the update before rooting? There has to be something causing this.

Running adb as xboxepert has outlined on post #1 will install CWM.

Reconnect your tablet to your PC.

Make sure you extracted both rar files into one directory.

Try executing the exe again. If CWM doesn't install then open up a dos prompt and navigate to the directory where you extracted the files. Adb and the CWM image file should be in the same folder.

Type adb devices. Adb should start and then list your device. If it doesn't check your device drivers in Windows and test again. If your device is present then in the dos prompt, type those 3 lines exactly as written on post #1, the same ones you quoted. That should install CWM.

Tablet was stock, rooted with XE_Sero7_Pro_Root.zip. I did not see any RAR files. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=41875861&postcount=2 Root was fine, but never checked CWM. Downloaded software update. This took root out. Next, rooted again. This time root is fine, but I check CMW, and it is not there. I ran the root file again and still no CMW.

The DOS attempt did not work either. Adb detected my device. I typed the lines as in post. I put one space between each line. I hope that is right. Thanks.
[Hisense Sero 7 Pro ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Ot] kngdmond:
Sorry about the rar file confusion. The original post used to have 2 rar files, the post has been updated . Obviously you have the correct files. When you run adb, you type one line at a time then hit enter. Do this for each line. After the tablet has successfully rebooted, reboot into recovery.

Well, I checked my Mom's Nexus 7 (2012) today and lo and behold, it connects at 65 Mbps and gets the same exact download speeds as the Sero 7 Pro, more evidence they are either using the same WiFi chip, or the Sero 7 Pro is indeed made from surplus Nexus 7 boards.

Daydream not working?

First off many thanks to the devs who brought this ROM to be!!

The only problem I've had so far is with the daydream. I'll open it up choose an option (say dashclock) and when I plug the charger in rather than going to dashclock it chooses video. It appears that no matter what you choose it will replace it with video.

Is this actually a problem or am I just nuts and haven't figured out daydream.

Before y'all ask yes I searched the forum (found nothing) and googled to even make sure it wasn't something with me.
