Hi,guys.

I have memo pad hd7 (8gb) for ten days,or so,and I'm really happy with it. Couple of things they could do better (default asus keyboard,and sometimes screen in not responsive),but for the money... One thing I wanna ask you. I see some of you have problems updating after root. If I root,and then not delete any app,but just freez some of them,to release some of the RAM,would I still have problems when (and if )any update comes? Can I just unfreez apps,unroot device and then update? If answer is yes,do we have list of apps that can be freezed? What difference in performance should I see then,how much RAM can we release?
[General Questions and Answers] rostamiani:
Hi everyone

Is there any chance to enable multi user support on memo pad hd7?

Is there any 4.3 custom Rom?

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] jole1999:
There is no 4.3 custom rom, our 4.2 roms already have multiuser feature but if you switch between 2 users all of the process will be still active so it eats a lot of RAM try app called SwitchMe you can create users there and use a soft reboot to like "log off" :) hope I helped.
[General Questions and Answers] rostamiani:
Thanks...

Where can I get a multiuser Rom for this device ? Can I install 16gb Rom on 8gb model?

Does this feature support app limitation for limited users, just like KitKat?

Nice thread :) the thing that caught my eye is ps3 gaming, which version of the sixaxis app do you use? In my case it recognizes my controller but when I make touch profiles and try them, buttons aren't mapped like they should be, even when I press r2 even it is not mapped in touch profile it just does something... Did you tweak it or something ?
[General Questions and Answers] minimonkey7:
Hi, I'm using the latest sixaxis app from the play store the only thing I have had to select to make it work with all the games is to make sure Enable Gamepad is selected in preferences>gamepad settings. Plus make sure input method is Sixaxis controller (Change IME) . All the games worked well after that.
[General Questions and Answers] jole1999:
Yes, I enabled that aswell but when I try rr3 and make my touch profile the commands are not responding how they should, I also tryed changing the offset to -90 and 90 and 0 but it stays the same... :(

Unable to update ota

Hello folks, I am having trouble updating. I softbricked my tablet a while back and had to flash an older version to restore, now I am unable to update. Contacted Asus and they suggested clearing DMClient and CMClient cache and rebooting which I did to no avail. The update system checks and says I am up to date, and I am not. I am rooted but have tried with no root also and no luck. Always says tablet is up to date. Any ideas?

I am on version 4.2.4.06716_20130918 as a WW user.

Anyone else having problems with this?

It seems to be inverted and upside down so the mappings are in the wrong place as shown on the pic left is right and right is left and the brake is on top instead of bottom and the start is in the bottom right instead of top left so I don't think the stick will work with touch b so I used buttons.
[General Questions and Answers] saladfingers8989:
I'm posting here because in superdragonpt's thread I can't. It's stupid beginner question anyway.

I'm still on Asus_ME173X_v1.1_R2 rom and it works very good, but I have some charging issues. I noticed that a preloader fix was released together with the new AOSP rom. Please tell me if I can install this on my current rom, or do I need to also install AOSP rom?

Also, is it possible to upgrade to AOSP without having to install and configure all the apps? I don't have enough time for this.

Thanks a lot!
[General Questions and Answers] jole1999:
I think that you could just flash the preloader over it, of you want aosp just flash it in recovery :) if you get softbricked just do the expect same thing as in the dragons tutorial but this time after doing the last step flash the preloader and then flash v1.1 or aosp ROM :) hope I helped :D but I just had to invert x axis :) Thanks again :))

EDIT: Thanks mini monkey I just swapped upside down not left and right, now all works fine even the analog stick :D

backing up Asus Memo Pad HD 7 ; factory reset

Hello,

Does anyone know of a good way to backup photos, apps and app data on the Asus Memo Pad HD 7?

Connecting to a PC and trying to transfer the data is horrendously slow. There is a 2GB SD card installed in the tablet.

My wife's tablet is experiencing the "sleep of death", insane battery drain (going from 45% to 8% in 12 minutes), and battery getting hot.

I've rooted the device and "frozen" the non-essential asus apps. I've also tweaked the CPU speed via SetCPU for better battery life.

Others have suggested returning the tablet to where it was purchased at. Unfortunately, I have not found the original receipt yet.

I am considering doing a factory reset to see if it resolves the issues. Has anyone experienced this issue and been able to fix it?

I also have Asus Memo Pad HD 7 which was purchased about 2 months after my wife's and not experienced any issues.

It is also rooted and CPU speed was also tweaked. It is important to note that I do not have as many apps as my wife has on her tablet. The majority of them being for our 2 year old. Has anyone replaced the battery themselves?

thank you in advance for your help.
[General Questions and Answers] minimonkey7:
Depends how much data you need to backup you could try titanium backup. Just check after where the titanium backup stores the backup data. Worth doing a factory reset to start.

GSM Modem Support?

Hi everyone.

I was wondering if this tablet supports GSM/3G Modems with the OTG Cable?

I want to connect to the internet through gprs and i was wondering if i could do it with a gsm/3D modem and a sim card inside it..:confused:

Also i found a video on youtube which i can't post here , but you can search it on google .on this video, he works with a "ME 172V" version Of this tablet, which i assume is one version older than this ;)

Thanks.

Great tablet with but big disappointment

True. I bought this tablet last week in preparation to an upcoming travel. I thought I could keep it connected to the Internet through my phone that has Wi-Fi hotspot issues. Bluetooth would have been my only solution (that's what I'm using for the 10-inch Asus Memo Pad Smart, via the same phone).

I also thought I could at least backup my files to my USB drive daily, during the trip. But heh, I won't be able to do either of those!

I wrote to Asus, too. They only asked whether I had tried resetting it back to its factory settings? Come on! The tablet just got out of its original sealed box! BT tethering was the first thing I tested while still sitting in the parking lot outside the store. If there's no solution to either of these issues, I'm returning it to the store. But then again, which other tablet should I get instead?

UPDATE:

Here's the official response from ASUS support team:

Hi guys

Just bought mine today (about 30m ago.)

Let me check in detail this Mtk SoC, maybe i can do my magic on this MTK Tab.

First thing should be, making an CWM / TWRP recovery.

[General Questions and Answers] tempurastylez:
Do you still need us to check the mediatek files and folders under root? I can do it, but I guess your tablet is already rooted as well :)

If not, Framaroot works like a charm.

Be aware of mtk tools. I broke mine try to creating recovery. Ended in a bootloop. The boot partition and nvram are broken. Be carefull.
[General Questions and Answers] superdragonpt:
Boas ...

Thanks, but why did you used MTK Tools?

For flashing an recovery the best method (for all MTK based phones/tabs ) is the SPFlash Tools, this is the Original app from MTK to flash stock ROMS (this is what they use in China to flash stock roms), and in our case, also to flash recoverys.

---------- Post added at 08:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:18 PM ----------

NO, but thanks :)

I'm already working on an custom recovery...

Mine isn't rooted, and also after checking Framaroot, i really don't like the way he does things...

Be aware MTK products are very different from other brands, even to make an simple mod, the AOSP method wont work, since MTK uses their own framework that works under the stock one ...

EDIT:

Download the SP Flash Tools from my dev-host:

SP Flash Tool v3.1238.5.58.7z - 2.98 MB

I rooted mine with motochopper method and everything was fine. I used mtk tools to extract image file and create a modified recovery and it ends in a fail. Just warning others to not doing the same.

If you achieve a way to get a recovery you will have the gratitude of us all. Fingers crossed!
[General Questions and Answers] sajty:
Possible ROM for this tablet?Great,finally someone takes this idea :).Cannot stand that bloatware,which is included in stock ROM...

To remove bloatware you just need to root your rom with motochopper and then remove bloatware with titanium backup or similar software

I already did it of course.But there is so much system apps,that i dont know,if i can delete them or not.

Building kernel drivers

I'd really like some help on building kernel drivers for the HD7. Basically I want to build the asix.ko which in turn means building also usbnet.ko and mii.ko

I downloaded the current NDK for linux x64 and placed it NDK folder.

I downloaded the alps* source from asus site.

prepard for cross compile with:

export CROSS_COMPILE=/root/NDK/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.6/prebuild/linux-x86_64/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-

edited

mediatek/config/asus89_tb_jb2/autoconfig/kconfig/project

... and added

CONFIG_USB_USBNET=m

CONFIG_USB_NET_AX8817X=m

... so the drivers will get built once I do:

TARGET_PRODUCT=asus89_tb_jb2 MTK_ROOT_CUSTOM=../mediatek/custom MTK_PATH_SOURCE=../mediatek/kernel/ make -j 4

to build the whole thing (from my understanding this should build the stock kernel, while my two modules will be added)

Everything actually builds fine, but ...

I can insmod my mii.ko with no problems

while insmod usbnet.ko throws out:

usbnet: unknown symbol __stack_chk_guard (err 0)

usbnet: unknown symbol lockdep_init_map (err 0)

usbnet: unknown symbol __stack_chk_fail (err 0)

Can anyone help me with building these drivers (I'd prefer a solution that I can apply myself (in case I'll need any other drivers), but a working usbnet.ko and asix.ko should do aswell ;)
