There are just a few things you can check, make sure Use My location is enabled in Privacy, and in Location & Security, make sure Use Wireless Networks is checked. Also seem the more AP's it finds on the wireless, the more accurate the geolocation feature is, my externl dongle with antenna finds over a dozen, so mine is very accurate. And with anything Google, make sure your time and date are accurate for the Google server to connect.

Flashing 1030 firmware

I cannot successfully flash the 1030 firmware, I can flash the 1020 which is the other one I have. The 1030 flashes OK (I see the UpdatePipeState: 0×600000f 6) but when I turn it off then back on it only boots to the

A N D R O I D _ Screen?

I can then reflash it to 1020 without a problem.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Huawei EC168 problem

Hey brother, Can you please give me solution for my HUAWEI EVDO EC168c on my ZT-180 with Android 2.1. I am currently running 926. Please tell me any way to run my EC168 on my epad.. Thanks in Advance

First I would suggest flashing to the 1030 ROM http://www.slatedroid.com/zt-180/10474-new-firmware-1030-a.html then rooting your tablet and doing the txpower fix http://www.ibeau.net/tech/easy-root-txpower-fix-on-zenithink-zt-180/

I don't know about the actual tutorial on the tablet, but I found this Andriod 2.2 User Guide on the net:

http://www.droid-life.com/2010/08/03/download-official-android-2-2-user-guide/

I think most of the info applies to 2.1 except for the apps2sd and some apps and functions that Zenithink didn't include in our system...

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] OpenMinded:
Well, i am sorry to say i sold this crappy zt-180.

I am fed up with the lack of sources Zenithink will provide.

They are amateurs and despite all wonderfull things this community has shown to be capable of they refuse to release the code, although they do use the work that is done here.

That's a bad practice IMHO.

What could have been a great device, now still is a pretty cripled device that still does not have even powersaving, which is really rediculous.

Prices have dropped considerably, I guess we know why.

A rebranded chip so no flash support.

No more ZT-180 for me.

an ipad is on it's way and I'll be looking for Tegra or Atom based devices with 2.2 and flash working on it.

I hope the Chinese will learn to make better products and to share their code for future versions.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] alex-art:
ZT-180 is capable of Flash 9.1.

Right now you can buy 8" tablet based on Cortex A8 1GHz CPU for just little bit more then ZT-180. Though is has only 800x600 resolution but it has Froyo, multitouch and 512MB RAM. Initially Chinese said it comes with capacitive touchscreen and 1024x768 but later figured out that it was just a rumour.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Zap!:
I'm all but convinced the ZT-180 is capable of using the g-sensor in games (rather than just screen rotation), despite it being 3-Axis and Zenithink stating otherwise.

The FlyTouch2 also uses a 3-axis accelerometer, and does in fact make use of the g-sensor in games like Labyrinth. Check out this thread on the FlyTouch2 for more details. If this can be confirmed, it will be huge.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] alex-art:
Saw somewhere that ZT-180 has only 2-axis g-sensor and 100% doesn't work in Labyrinth.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Christian Buchner:
Zenithink stated it was a 2 axis orientation sensor only - not capable of returning analog ("quantized") output.

That "3 axis accelerometer" in the list of sensors only exists in software and always returns neutral tilt values to the application.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] OpenMinded:
I have Flash 9.1 and it is not used on most sites, so who needs it then?

800x600 is unusable from a webbrowsing point of view.

There are more interesting tablet now with capacitive mt screen and 102x600 with Android 2.2 and flash support for around $399.

More than twice the price of a ZT-180 but more than 5 times the value for me, if powermanagement works.

I am weary of Chinese products now and will wait untill I read reports about the hardware claims.

Those things can be ipad competitors:

http://www.flatcomputing.com/products/details/3/FlatPad-A10T-NEW

http://www.malata.com/en/product_detail.aspx?classid=661&id=82

The ZT-180 needs fiddling for 3G, has no GPS support and no cam.

I want those things in a tablet :).

Let's hope those new device are as easy to fiddle with, because that is what I really do like about the ZT-180.

Sorry I have no experience with dual boot linux on the ZT-180, maybe you can ask here http://www.slatedroid.com/zt-180/9501-debian-epad-worked.html if you are talking about something like this. (I've only had a couple of months experience with Android, and learned most of what I know from reading all the posts on XDA, Slatedroid, and JT Forums - all the posts in the ZT-180 threads that is...)

One of my customers bought 3 tablets of me for showing his site to his customers. And fortunately for me his site was running 9.1 so I managed to get it works with FlashLite. And if relay on him iPad wasn't able to play the site so he returned it back to Apple store and got mine.

I agree 800x600 is too low res so I declined this tablet when being offered.

And there is new variant of ZT-180 with webcam and GPS built-in but according to my supplier both doesn't work with standard application like Skype and Google maps. I might order one later to play with it.

some kind of C++ compiler for android.

sound and video choppy

hi everyone.

I got a Zenithink earlier this week. So far im happy w/it, considering the price. I;ve rooted it, upgraded to 1030 firmware, and removed so of the preinstalled apps. My question is when I play Angry Birds, sometimes the video and audio is choppy and stuttering. It doesnt do it all the time, but enough to lag the game for me. I there some settings are anything I can do to fix it?

Thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Christian Buchner:
The NDK by default only builds (JNI-enabled) libraries, but there are some third party wrapper scripts to invoke the NDK's compiler to build standalone executables. I don't remember right now where to get these wrapper scripts. Anyone?

Yep I had the wrong image (I think) I grabbed another 1030 and that worked fine thanks for your help.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] alex-art:
That's the link to one of the suppliers
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rmgold:
The more recent NDK has a ndk-build script you run in the jni code directory, provided you write your Android.mk makefiles, from there you can use the SDK to compile the java code as normal and it will include into an .apk, however it is best advised to roll up the sleeves and learn how to use Eclipse CDT with the Android builder and DDMS as it becomes then a click-to-build-and-run operation.

Note well that the official NDK lacks support for C++ exceptions, RTTI and Standard C++ Library, so if your code already exists, there is a good chance you'll need to do some rewrite. The good news is there's a set of patches available that implement such, check out the most awesome CrytsaX NDK (do a search), I've had great mileage with it.

Do you have some sort of memory manager and/or startup manager installed on your tablet, if not, i would suggest you should, I have AutoKiller Memory Optimizer (set to strict), AutoRun Killer, and Startup Manager on mine. Also maybe just using a task killer and killing any apps you are not using before your start the game should help you, as you can tell, i think the lag you are experiencing is just some memory issues you might be having. Also for me, not sure for others, if I haven't used the tablet in a while, I usually always reboot after my first initial full boot, for some reason, the tablet always seems more responsive and boots up better and faster on a second boot....

I have it in my tablet, but I had to remove it from my phone. It's dangerous. I lost a month of my unemployed pay (611 euros) because I had Astrid configured to remind me of the renew date and AutoKiller was preventing Astrid to work, stopping it's process continuously, I guess. I removed AutoKiller and Astrid started to give me messages of already expired tasks. :(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] <Laharl>:
ok i emailed the retailer for the zenithink i ordered and asked them this.

I got this reply today.

what do i need to ask for jtbnet?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jtbnet:
You do know that Android is derived from Linux by Google to be able to supply a streamlined OS with pretty powerful JAVA JIT support for smaller footprint hardware ??? see:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_(operating_system)#Linux_compatibility

Yes, I know about the Google vs. Linux Community bickering, as noted in that link, but things are still so Close I believe RP above had noted dropping the RA2870 WIFI Linux driver in place of the delivered Android 2.1 one on the tablet, Noting is was almost twice the size, and it was running fine... A little surprising... but an example of how close they are...

Point being, Google set out to make multi-tasking, low resource requirement OS and started from a fairly recent Linux base and seem to have succeeded pretty well... Load a pretty stripped Linux release + JAVE JRE and see what the requirements are...

Granted if you have no need/use for JAVA, then a stripped/No JAVA Linux install may be better suited to your needs than Android...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jtbnet:
I never suspect that we will get it, but what would make this awesome would be a 'Full source build system package with vendor setup' like Samsung has made available for their ARM/Cortex 8 Captivate SGH-I897 (Galaxy S High End Phone Platform) which has a rumored big brother 7in. tablet to be released soon... I.E.:

http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/reception_main.do?method=reception_list&menu_item=mobile

The SGH-I897 source download is a little way down the page and ~161MB for those interested.... I had investigated this earlier when I thought we we getting Cortex 8 Processors and as Samsung has been building ARM versions of Android for a good while with good quality, I figured it a great source reference platform...

Of course now I need go back and grab one of their other packages for an ARM11 which seems to be similar to this ZT-180 with it's built-in GC600ish GPU...

maybe something with Samsung S3C6410 (ARM 1176-based Mobile Application Processor) as supports OpenGL1.x hardware graphic accelleration... Samsung Intercept SPH-M910 or Moment SPN-900 as both run Android???
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] <Laharl>:
Ok I sent the request to them Cross your fingers in hopes that they will send it to us!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rpmccormick:
This is the request: We need to be able to extract the .bin firmware images, and then we need to be able to create our own .bin firmware images after we have modified the extracted stuff.

FlatComputing has already asked this of Zenithink, and when they said NO!, FlatComputing e-mailed everyone that they would not be supporting the tablets and would accept refunds or ~$70 off if you want to keep it with stock 0804 FW (actually I think even older).

Good luck though :)

I just tried EPE56 build and all worked except Market, so I pushed ERE36B's vending.apk, which worked, but then GoogleApps.apk started crashing... so I think we are stuck with the ERE36B total package. At least you can upgrade Maps :)

I am working on a script (windows .bat file) that you can run after the firmware flash like this: "script.bat {ip} {GoogleID}" and it will set almost everything up for you. Then step-by-step on some config after that (setting up your google account, importing my ADW Settings/Icons, AutoKiller config, etc). This procedure should "restore" any pad to exactly what I have. It may take a day or two though to make sure I have all the bugs worked out and everything installed works and has a desktop icon on one of the 7 screens.

[ROM] RPM-180 Alpha 1

EDIT: Get v1.0 now.

I couldn't resist, so here is my "ROM" alpha. I will make a new thread and link to it in this one when I am done.

Step 1: Burning the 0809 image.

1) ......

Step 2: Connect and Get IP

1) Press Menu -> "Settings" -> "Wireless & Network Settings" -> "Wi-Fi settings".

2) Press "Wi-Fi" at the top to "Turn On WiFi".

3) Press your routers SSID from the "Wi-Fi networks" list and enter security info.

4) Wait for it to say "Connected" under your routers SSID, then Press it again.

5) Write down your IP (probably 192.168.1.??? or 192.168.0.???)

Step 3: Gen an Android ID

1) You have a real Android device running Android 1.X:

adb shell sqlite3 /data/data/com.google.android.googleapps/databases/accounts.db "select * from meta";

2) You have a real Android device running Android 2.X:

adb shell sqlite3 /data/data/com.google.android.googleapps/databases/gls.db "select * from meta";

3) You have no real Android device:

http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/2186...ndroid-market-in-the-google-android-emulator/

4) Write down the result: "androidId||{ID}"

Step 4: Run my update script

1) Extract zip file to any sub-dir of your adb.exe (ie: "RPMScript")

2) Make a sub-directory (from my .bat file) called "ERE36B-addon"

3) Extract this to that directory (so ".../RPMScript/ERE36B-addon/system" exists, and "..." contains adb.exe)

4) Run RPMScript.bat {ip} {google-id}

Step 5: Configure Accounts & Programs

1) Reboot, wait for it to say "Touch the Android to Begin", but don't touch.

2) Press the 4 corners of the black box, clock-wise, starting with upper left.

3) Wait for Home to load, then press "Settings"->"Accounts" (or launch market)

4) Add google

6) News&Weather: Settings, uncheck "Use my location", press "Set location", enter your zip.

7) AutoKiller: Run and select "Moderate" or whatever you like.

10) Delete all the widgets and re-create them.

WORK-IN-PROGRESS.

Did not include working YouTube.apk, Calendar(Provider).apk, and all my favorite apps (though you will see icons for them all, and can install them via Market)

INCLUDED: Root, TXPatch, my Keyboard layout file, working GoogleApps/Market, AutoKiller, TimeSync, Brightness widget, Ad Free, My ADB Launcher config.
