Agreed, English is a very vague language, with a poor structure compared to other languages (such as French and Spanish). But that is learning it as a native language, I don't think i learned about PastParticiples (or what they are) until I started doing French.

I guess I could be English and not British. I forget which one is the preffered nowdays to be honest.

You could believe I'm from Antartica if you want. Doesn't make much difference to me.

I have noticed you have changed your location to Bristol. Why on earth would you want to do that? I've been there once, thought I was going to get stabbed, I decided to leave the petrol station without buying any and tested my luck to get the van to Wales (this was back when I worked for Coca-Cola over the summer). I failed, but oh well, RAC understood...

For all I know, you're not a llama at all...

(Its me in my avatar, is that you?!?)

Ps. This is intended in good humour. I don't want to offend anyone!

This thread has had me in stitches man.

I'll add a few things I say on a regs.....

Aye aye - to say hello (pronounced eye, eye,... not ay ay)... I think its a Newcastle/jordie/gordie thing.

Whas happenin? - kind of like how are you, what you been up to... which always gets the same response from all my pals.. "f*#k all,.. same old, same old". Everyone's a pessimist eh.

I don't give a Daffy - don't give a f*#k & Aint got a Scooby - aint got a clue ... both cockney rhyming slang.

I also use the word jammer alot for 'car'. Car --> jam jar (cockney slang again) --> jammer

Things we don't say....

Sidewalk.... Its pavement god damn it!!!

Haha, this thread reminds me of a time in highschool...

I attended an international school here in Hong Kong. We had a Brit for an English teacher even though it was suppose to be an American international school. Anyway, she said the word "aluminium" (pronounced al-yew-min-ee-um) and a whole bunch of us had this confused look on our faces.

One of us spoke up and said "What? Do you mean aluminum?" (pronounced a-loom-inem)

Teacher: "What? It's al-yew-min-ee-um"

Student: "No, it's a-loom-inem. It sounds out exactly how it's spelled!"

Then the teacher spelled out the word on the whiteboard a-l-u-m-i-n-i-u-m.

Student: "What? There's no i near the end! It's a-l-u-m-i-n-u-m.

Then the rest of the class session turned into this debate into who is correct. It was pretty silly...
[Off-topic] ddotpatel:

Agreed. Not ALOOOMNUM.

it is the English language afterall, not American :p
[Off-topic] g.lewarne:
here be some plymouthian (aka "janner") phrases

innit = isn't it

wa-er (pronounced water without the T) = water

bugger, damn it, wanker, sh**, f***er, f**k = oh dear!

things a plymouthian would say every day

Pasty (if its spelled pastie it ain't a pasty) = an unhealthly self contained meal. ivor dewdneys being the best local offering

pint = a measure of wife beater (stella artios)

stella act a twat = stella artois

p!ss off = please go away, you are bothering me

Things Americans have got so wrong

What you call a "Fanny", for us is a slang term for the femail genitalia. It proper word is "bum" or "ass"

Pants - Pants are male (or female if so inclined) underwear of the lower region. The proper word you should use is "trousers"

haha
[Off-topic] creed:
That's just how our language formed! Just like a lot of European languages we have what might seem at first glance redundant letters. What I can't understand is why Americans drop letters that are supposed to be there, for instance Colour becomes Color e.t.c. These words were originally French, then British but it seems the Americans got lazy or were maybe a bit illiterate and dropped the u. Americans to me seem a bit like children in that they spell things more phonetically ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] paperweight:
There is an option to port rom from another device. Can you all help me or explain to me how to correctly use that option? Thanks in advance!
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
You need a current ROM for your device, preferably one as close to the ROM that you are trying to port (Android 2.2 if you are trying to port a 2.2 ROM, for instance). And then you need the ROM that you are trying to port, of course.

1) Put the ROM that is already for your device in the original_update folder.

2) select 'Advanced' and then '11' in the kitchen

3) follow through with that option

4) Read the prompts. It actually walks you through really well.

5) After it process the first ROM, it will ask for the ROM that you are trying to port. Put that ROM in the original_update folder and hit enter.

6) After it process that ROM, you can do any manipulations you need to do in the WORKING_* folder.

The ROM is not ready to roll at that point. You still have work to do. Look at this post, for instance - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=723319

If you are trying to port a ROM from the CDMA Hero, you don't have a lot left in order to make it usable. If it's from another device, it's not nearly as easy.

You should also read through all of the scripts. I learned a lot from them.

Current Issues and Bugs

(more to come)

No volume hardkeys - Need get semi-transparent on-screen controls for these function

Recovery is useless (Hold Home+Power while booting up) - No way to access functions in Recovery menu

Software is a mess - we really need a new recovery, a cleaned up ROM, and overclocking!

In adb shell, doing a "reboot recovery" reboots the device to a black screen and doesn't bring up recovery.

7/30/10 - Pattern lock doesn't work after setting it up

7/30/10 - If you have Settings > Applications > Development > Stay Awake checked, the screen stays awake even when unplugged

If we have any dev out there at all that can provide us with some help, let me know and I will try them on my tablet (or adb). I need to do some more reading on how to compile kernels and ROMs and things. Hopefully the coming update will be an .img file or something useful that we can use to advance the development of this tablet!

Excellent.. thanks for posting this. I actually like the Menu, Home, Search and Back button location.. you want this thread mainly about development then huh.. We need a general page also.

There's on screen volume controls while watching a video, but not for music.. thats weird. you'd think they'd do both.

I ran Quadrant and Scored over 300. Just barely below the Moto Droid according to they're results.. Not bad. it was smooth at least. According to Quadrant I was running at 600 Mhz, and the Max Frequency is 600 Mhz, and the min was like 38. so thats pretty low. that could be wrong though. The spec's say 800 Mhz so I'm not sure why it read at 600 Mhz as the max. I'm looking into this all more but it's charging right now.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] manfly9884:
Thanks for putting this up. I got my tablet today and I must say that I kind of like it. Yes, it has all the quirks you mentioned but like you, I feel it has allot of potential.

Will definitely keep up with this.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] thatguythatdid:
awesome i'm gonna talk to augen to try to get the adb drivers tommorow. Having a working recovery is very important. I guess they put on a fake radio and that needs to be fixed so that it will stop searching for signal and increase our battery life. I'm wondering if what hardware is on this? since it gives an evdo signal I wonder if it's capable of connecting to a phone service? course i'm not gonna find out till we got a working recovery. I got some time off starting friday so i'll really be able to do some help for this. Oh do you know if flash_image is installed? I ask cuz i'm currently stuck in recovry or something (think i just got a bad device cuz my sdcards wouldn't show)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xguntherc:
I feel the same way. i Kinda like it. It's got potential, and I'm sure it will be a fun device for a while. I'm going to use it while I browse forums and watch TV instead of my Nexus One.

Spec's of a G1/Dream. with a 800 Mhz CPU and a 7" screen. I quite like it.

and yea I think they loaded a fake radio also. it has E.. full service, but it does vary and go up and down. it also has been showing Roaming for me the entire day. Mine lists Teleco Loco for the provider instead of like T-Mobile. really odd. I'd like to loose the E symbol all the way like my Nexus does when I'm on Wifi.

I ran the system infomation tab on Quadrant and this is mostly what it says. (not sure if accurate or not)

CPU

Name: ARMv6-compatible

Processor Rev 6 (v6l)

Current Freq: 600 Mhz

Max was also 600 (the specs page says 800 so idk what that is about) (I feel some overclocking is in my future)

Min Freq: 36 Mhz

Cores:1

Architecture: 7

BogoMIPS: 499.71

Hardware: telechips

TCC89/91/92XX Demo Board (haha a demo)

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] thatguythatdid:
can one of you guys install terminal emulator from the market install it and run these commands?

cd /system/bin
ls -a

see if flash_image is in there

xguntherc I think the processor is underclocked the guy that did this didn't really know much about android is my guess. I mean he used testkeys for gods sake
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xguntherc:
yup.. test keys and the software was from 2010 7/20.. it's like 9 days old.

Fresh out the Kitchen. if no one will. I'll run that command for you

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xguntherc:
Terminal Emulator

or Better Terminal. Doesn't matter. I also found APKatcher, so i'm going to add that to my SD. use there file manager to install is so I can install APK's from email. thats easier for me. I also an going to download the market enabler app to see if that helps. lol.

Anyone notice the Manual mentions when you charge there is a Red indicator light, and will go green when it's fully charged. The light is inside the device and I see it glowing through the Mini USB port.. so i guess thats the indicator, but it's hard to see. haha
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] -viperboy-:
ADB worked right away for me on the tablet so anything you need in ADB I can do. Tell me what else you need me to run.

/system/bin did have a flash_image and I copied it to my card. Let me post it up here in a sec as a .zip

EDIT: flash_image posted. will update OP. Seemed odd that it was only 10kb... Secondly, would it help if I made an .img of all the mtd partitions?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] -viperboy-:
We should get an IRC going so we can tackle a little more than just back and forth in posts. Anyone up for that??

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] thatguythatdid:
I'm definfitly up for irc that but it's gonna have to be tommorow. I gotta be to work in the morning. But after tommorow i got a week. I guess mine was more messed up than i thought because i couldn't use adb (ruunning windows). So broken sd slot, no adb, tablet not coming on yeah it's definitly messed up. Gonna hopefully exchange. Do wanna say though that with flash_image in there we can definitly get a custom recovery. And if they are doing a update we can use that to make roms. Funs just sttarting :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] xguntherc:

I'm exited to see how things go for this bad boy. I'm not very good with all the deep stuff. but I've got most my apps on her now. I've not tried to root yet though.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] -viperboy-:
Here is a problem that I am having... I have the tablet rooted and I have superuser on here. Odd thing is that when I fire up TB, it just aquires root automatically but it doesn't do that on any of my phones. My guess is that the SU file needs to be modified or I need to put in the correct one to make it so when an app asks for root, it goes through superuser. What do I need to do that?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] -viperboy-:
Sent an email over to Koush and gave him the link to this thread hoping he can make us a custom recovery! He's a genius so I'm sure it will be nothing for him.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] zerozed99:
You guys should just email Augen and tell them that for $1000 you'll fix the mess for them.

Would someone that hasn't done a factory reset check to see if they have a Vending.apk in /data/app and if you do (and didn't put it there yourself) could you post it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] n0m0n:
Delete please
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] gonzoangel:
what if we use this to remap two of the buttons to be up and down, then reboot into recovery then you will be able to navigate the recovery screen.

also can we get omnom his own thread so he stops cluttering up this one.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] -viperboy-:
lol :D but yes, we are working on that :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] thoughtlesskyle:
while doing some research on the web i found these instructions on how to get rid of a google account:

"For those that purchase it and discover that Factory Reset doesn’t work… this is how you remove your Google Account from it (in case you wish to return it to Kmart).

adb shell

cd /data/system

rm accounts.db

sync

reboot

That will actually turn the device off, instead of reboot. When you power back up you will see that your sync accounts are gone. If you want to reset the widgets and wallpaper I believe they are in that same folder, although I didn’t test those. Good luck!"
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Linuxslate:
I have not done a factory reset, and my /data is empty, at least in ES File Expl. and via the Terminal. I have not rooted, so I am normal user.

Bad USB cable here at work. I also have my HTC cable, but don't want to squeeze, cut etc., so I cannot easily adb at the moment.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] junk0:
Rotate screen

I found a free app to rotate the screen: RotateD

The default home screen will not rotate so it will look like the app isn't working...

But if you use LauncherPro or another home app the RotateD app seems to work.

note: Auto screen rotate must also be on. (can be changed with QuickSettings).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] -viperboy-:
If you're not rooted, you won't see anything in /data. You can see it in adb because in adb shell, you have root access.

Fantastic! Update the wiki and give yourself credit!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jboogie3:
he needs it from system/app, should be there

edit: anyways here it is.. good thing i made a back up http://www.mediafire.com/?5tagxr1dyrffpm4

Im still having issue with the market. I can download app that are like system tool(setcpu, advanced task manager) but nothing else.. did the market hack like 5 times already and nothing works.. ugghhh:confused:

i know this is a dev thread but does this device have an accelerometer after all?

GPS/Cell radio - Google Maps

Ok, probably a REALLY dumb question with a simple answer:

Everything I've seen so far says the GT has neither GPS not a cellular radio. When I first got the thing I fired up Google Maps and used the "My Location" and sure 'nuff it pointed right to where I was (within a 100ft, about the same accuracy as my iPhone 4!).

I didn't think much of it at the time; subsequently I read to turn off the "fake" cellular radio using airplane mode to save battery (I assumed that even the fake radio somehow used more juice do whatever it does) - and have done so.

Now when I run G Maps and use my location, it fails. So I turned the fake radio back on and it works again.

So, my dumb question - how is it working? GeoIP? Seems pretty precise for that.

Please set me straight on what it happening, thanks!

When Google does their street view they map WIFI signals. Google knows where you live!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jul644:
also threw your internet connection can give u a location although using just the internet only gives me a 500m radius
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pkupp:
Thanks, I'm guessing GeoIP since there is no street view in my area (small town). It is just strange that it won't work with the fake radio off (but with WiFi on).

Thank you both!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] treeSkwerral:
Well when I first tried it out, it showed my location as being about 2 miles away from where I actually was. When I turned the phone stuff off, it still showed me with the same location (and I had already cleared the cache so it wasn't because of that). It actually showed me over the county line (I live on the edge of the county) so it showed me in an area with a different provider (I have Verizon and over the county line is AT&T).

note** I have DSL
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] remailednet:
On a fresh GenTouch, the market is "uninstallable" through applications. Which would mean that the app needs to be there someplace other then system. Maybe data/app-private?

Mine is, not-so-fresh, anymore.

And has anyone been able to unpack and repack the recovery.img at all? Venturing in to uncharted territory for me, I can unpack it and repack it, but when flashing it, it won't boot. Flashing the original makes it work again.

It looks like the page size of the original is 4096 but it gets repacked at 2048. Changing the page size in mkbootimg to 4096 didn't help either.
