hi, i am french, so, sorry for my english.

I have a ZT180, flashed with 1014. But it is not root....

So I used Universal androot, to make it root.

But Titanium backup says "Busybox works but the "su" command does not elevate to root ...

Before lashing, I didn't have this problem.... How to make it work as before?

Thanks a lot

Do you know if adb would be able to fix my screen resolution problem?

If you open root explorer and go to /data/system/wallpaper_info.xml, you can see the screen resolution set to a width of 1152 and height of 1024. This is bit off from the 1024x600 that it's supposed to be, and makes it impossible to properly display a wallpaper image (they all get stretched to 1152x1024).

You can't simply change the settings from within android and save the file, because it gets reverted back.

This is driving me nuts.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jtbnet:
This is really only a fine tuning file and if you are having serious trouble with your touch screen it's best to delete the file to reset things back to default, reboot and retry calibration... some how after I burned a new version I ended up with a file that caused my touch to be of by like 3in. x 3in. and wrapping the screen so it was impossible to know what you were really hitting in a number of places... the only fix was to use adb to delete the file and surprising my screen was absolutely perfect without calibration after that.

I'm not sure Why the hardware graphics devices is defined to have a Physical resolution of 1024x576(or 600 on newer) while to have a Virtual resolution of 1024x1152 it doesn't make sense to me except this makes Physical to Virtual as

1024/576 to 1024/(576*2) almost as if there was reason to stretch the Yres to exactly 2 screens...

Looking on my Moto Droid1's I see that this is similar as the Physical size of the Droid is 854x480 but the Virtual is 854x(480*2=960)...

<wp width="960" height="854" name="res:com.android.launcher:drawable/wallpaper_siren" component="android/com.android.internal.service.wallpaper.ImageWallpaper"

/>

Perhpas it's intentional to cause buffering of exactly 2 screens to aide in screen swipe transistions? Would make the transitions faster if both of the 2 screens were kept in memory at any time...thus it would seem if you wanted wallpaper to fit only one screen you would create it at Physical dimensions and store as 2 images wide... as in Physical = page Virtual = pagepage... and this would maintain the physical aspect of the picture...

0929 + CB was actually perfect, after adding the AndroidID. No errors, no issues at all.

But 1014 is now throwing again some "Taking to long to respond" alerts, youtube some times is slow and the video is not always sync with audio.

Also having some problems when I click the App Launcher icon.

How Share Mobile Internet

I was wondering, is it possible to share my mobile internet (HTC Wildfire) with ZT-180 Firmware version 1014? I’ve tried almost everything.

I’ve also a HTC TouchHD2, even there I can’t get it worked with mobile internet sharing. Can someone please help me.

I’ve also tried my Vodafone USB Modem (HUAWEI K3765 – Locked), but it does not recognized by the Firmware 1014, I tried as well the 3G EVDO and wcdma.

So if someone know any tricks it, I would really appreciate that. Thanks in advanced.

The correct command to use is umount like this:

umount udisk

You need root permissions. I tried it and got this:

can't unmount udisk: Invalid argument

Because I am using a USB keyboard, so I obviously don't have a USB pen drive inserted. So I tried to unmount the sdcard:

umount sdcard
umount: can't unmount /sdcard: Device or resource busy

The system is accessing the sdcard, so I can't unmount it. The same would apply to udisk, you wouldn't be able to unmount it if it was being accessed.

Just to stress a point, the command is UMOUNT (no "n"), not unmount.

I've read thru about the first 50 pages of posts on this thread before skipping to page 200, and it seems like alot of the problems have been corrected as far as getting the Market working and such. Is this tablet something I should be worred about, do I need to try to cancel this order or is it safe to let this company ship to me?

I have read about an inductor problem too. Is this still a common issue? Should I open this first off and use more glue to help the inductors stay in place better, or since this company offers a 1 year warranty, should I stick with that? Trouble is, getting warranty service. Shipping is going to be an obvious problem.

I can see from doing this reading that he is not going to have anything near my iPad, but, is he going to have a tablet that he can be happy with? He'll have to learn Android, and I can help him with flashing and doing that stuff, just wondering if I should try to cancel this order while I still might be able to.

OK, as painful as it is to use this tablets virtual keyboard, I tried this command. First I plugged in a USB drive.

After I run the command, the udisk folder shows as empty, so it must have worked. When I pull out the USB drive, Android still complains. I think that we can then safely ignore the complaint.

Also, when I try the opposite command, mount, I get an error about the /etc/fstab file. I believe that file is missing. I'm not sure where it stores the mount points.

I want such a device.

It would be my question, that somehow this will run on the device KompoZer, Bluefish, or similar. (Any way)

Maybe some C program development environment (I need it in school) and / or video editing / converting software?

In addition to the basic qualities, even that would be required.

If it somehow (but at least the web editor) allow, then it is worth buying it now:)

Somehow Froyo and Market can install to the device?

My experience

I know my 10-year old is pretty envious of mine, but it will depend on what he expects to do with it.

With RealPlayer I've been playing DVD ripped files (using MakeMKV) without modification on it with good sucess. My co-workers are impressed but feel that the screen brightness is a little week for full sunlight use.

The WiFi needs a little fiddling to get it to connect sometimes but seems to stick when it does.

The accelorometer only sensing four orientations is a deal breaker if games like doodle jump is high on his list of expectations.

Getting connected to the ineternet from everywhere requires additional hardware and lots of fiddling (this is something I haven't bothered with since I use it at home with WiFi only).
