I think that early posters have everything working...

Actually, I am just lurking waiting for an answer to a few questions and trying to help where I can. My GenTouch is working for what I need. I have the Market working, I have the apps I need (Kindle, Aldiko, GroceryIQ, Jorte, and etc.) I only look at this thread every couple days to see if anyone has a fix for the buffering issue in Last.fm...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] marcelol:
Well...I can't speak for others...but...

I already had the SlideMe/AndApp store market installed.

Then I installed the debug drivers from the 7800atp.zip ( you can find a link to it around here somewhere I'm sure ).

Aftgerwards I did the updates ( replaced Clockwork recovery instead of the recovery from Augen, then the boot, then system ). Then I applied the market "update.zip" ( the one that does the /cache fix for you, plus roots, and then ads the Nexus 1 Animation ).

After doing all that, of course, my market still didn't work....so...I followed the procedure to generate the androidID, and saved it.

the step just prior to what you're saying, I DID NOT delete everything in my /data. I simply left it as was, and then...

did the sqlite3 update command.

Once I did that, I rebooted the GT, and when it came back up...voila...I had a running market. And, I'm happy to report, it's been working ever since.

I think realistically, the fixes SHOULD be applied BEFORE attempting to add/update the androidID to the database.

I firmly believe that what made all the difference was the IMMEDIATE reboot after performing the sql update command. From that point on, it's been pretty smooth. I've dloaded a variety of apps ( including the XDA-DEVELOPER app I used to post back to early comments on this thread ).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] marcelol:
The order I used on my GT....

I did... Clockwork ( replaced the recovery.img for the supplied CW one ) -> Boot Image ( from the Augen Calib. Update )-> System.img ( from the Augen Calib. update ) -> Update.zip ( Auto-Root, SU.apk + Nexus 1 Boot Image ) and then.....

I did the market fix up to the point where it said to delete the /data directory, where I DID NOT erase it, and then simply ( after generating the androidID in the emulator ), performed the sqlite3 update command step to add the androidID.

Immediately after having the androidID added to the GT, I rebooted it.

Upon reboot, I had the Android Market working. It's been working for me fine after that.

SD card not showing in Windows

My SD card still isn't showing up in Windows Explorer (32 bit Win 7 Pro). It shows on the tablet & I can push stuff with adb, but it would be nice to drag-and-drop music, etc.

Like a couple of people earlier, 3 drive letters show. 2 are empty and the 3rd points apparently to my internal storage. My GT only pops up to mount internal.

I'm rooted, clockworked, market fixed, calibrated, etc. Any suggestions?!?

wifi any help

OK. Maybe no one else has wifi problems connecting to WEP, but I do, and I have too many computers set up that I don't want to change to WPA right now. I don't have market fixed so can't download an app that I have been told may help. It is a free app called Wifi Config Editor by OddRain. It looks like it allows you to modify WPA_SUPPLICANT via an app. It is FREE. if anyone has or can post I would be greatly appreciative!!

Thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cutterjohn:
One thing I should note, is that when using that 2.0 system.img from the slatedroid thread, is that there was an alternate command to retrieve the AndroidID... it's in the same post that has the link to that 2.0 system.img (apparently Google modified the db structure a bit from 1.x releases...)

[EDIT]

Brightness: I was using the GT outside last night and using iReader, changing the brightness setting there did appear to change them more than the system brightness level. As a matter of fact I tried a setting of 5 or 6 and got a black screen, while 10 gave me a bit dimmer. (sliding up and down the left side of the screen adjusts brightness in iReader).

Also looked like the system brightness control was changing the brightness a tiny bit... still almost blindingly bright in fairly dark conditions... so I don't believe that they have the brightness control properly configured...

[/EDIT]
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Linuxslate:
There is a brightness control in the Nook app. (Search this thread for the .apk if you have not done the market fix) It does adjust the brightness, but all of the adjustment is only in the lower 1/4 of the range of the slider. Also, it returns the brightness to the previous setting when you leave the app.

I also use the Nook app to force screen rotation. Few steps than using ES File Explorer.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] marcelol:
I would like to keep a running list of issues....

To Op: We have a bunch of individual issues that while not necessarily show-stoppers should be tracked ( outside of Augen's own tracker, which we know has a tendency to "auto-magically" close issues that haven't been really fixed. ).

1. Brightness Control. This is probably more of a kernel construct, because I believe brightness is handled in the display driver. I refer you to:

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/Settings.System.html#SCREEN_BRIGHTNESS

2. Garbled audio after resume from sleep. I've opened an issue with Augen about this already, and it sounds like a buffer underrun ( someone not releasing interrupts or a dma channel ? ) in the audio driver. Again, a kernel issue.

3. Release of their software build source. I've formally put a request that Augen make a release of the GT's source ( minus any proprietary drivers, of course ) available to the public. After all, if others are doing so ( opensource.samsungmobile.com ), then why not the folks who supply the GT's to Augen.

Hi FeedomFighter. Yes I am filtering MAC addresses. I have allowed the Gentouch MAC but no luck. I have put countless attempts into this. Wondering if the MAC I am using is even correct (the same MAC everyone else has).

I'm not a pushy guy or anything but this is getting absurd

Ari: hi

angus1357: Hi, been disconnected twice so i'll make this fast

angus1357: I know the new firmware is going to be released friday, is the cpu clock going to be fixed so it will run at the 800MHz advertised or will it still be locked at 600MHz? Also i'm going to assume you wont be releasing the new firmware with the market, gmail, talk, etc...is there any way to preserve this to be re-installed to the new firmware?

angus1357: ??

Ari: unfortunately the

angus1357: the what??

Ari: software

Ari: we are anticipating to

Ari: receive these upcoming days

Ari: should be the same firmware used

Ari: and should be giving a system restore option

angus1357: thats all? its not going to address the screen autorotation, wrong clock frequency or any other issues we've all been seeing?

Ari: i'm filing that issue in.

Ari: the only feedback we have from google at this time

Ari: is to address a system restore

Ari: which we are anticipating to be released on the 20th

angus1357: so the update will only address a system restore and thats it, the rest will be addressed at a later date?

Ari: at this time that is what has been relayed to us

Ari: the calibration and usb drivers

Ari: had already been available for download

angus1357: ok, thanks for your time

Ari: but the screen autorotation, wrong clock frequency

Ari: had not yet been given a go signal

Ari: thank you for chatting

I dont care if this thing has flaws as long as they're going to address them....but it appears that they're not interested in fixing it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cutterjohn:
returning yours as well?

A few pages back, someone posted a message about removing account info from the GT, involved deletion of an accounts.db file IIRC, but I don't remember where it was located, then said to delete apps...

@angus1357

for me I can scroll and scroll... often getting to the end of cached apps, then it says something about loading more and proceeds to do so...

[EDIT]

Anyone know what forum that the A81-E discussions have moved to? ...as slatedroid appears to be down indefinitely ATM...

On mine I made a brand new Google account JUST to use with the GT, so I've got nothing in it... but I'd still clear everything anyways...

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mogrith:
My guess the 'system restore' is the same crap firmware with the Google market and supporting files removed.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mothy:
I know that when I ran the steps for the market fix (which Im still trying to get working) it erased everything even the apps/data that came pre loaded like the file managers etc.....

""cd /data

rm -r *

ls

There will still be files in there, so rm -r whatever_folders_are_left (do 1 at a time - and lost+found cannot be deleted, don't worry)

Reboot Tablet""

Not sure if it will work but if your returning it it is worth a shot.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] FeedomFighter:
I'm at work and cant try it myself, but if its like any other linux distro try ADB into the shell or use a terminal emulator app and see what the MAC is with doing an "ifconfig" command. it should list all the network info to include MAC address.

I also vaguely remember somone on the forums saying there was a file on the GT that had the MAC address in it. To me it sounds like you may have a newer GT that they fixed the MAC address issue.

I found it, its /data/softmac. If you can view the guts of that file it will tell you your MAC address and so if you just assumed that your MAC address was the same as everyone else, and it actually wasnt, this should tell you.

The final option is to turn off MAC filtering on your router, let it connect and obtain an IP via DHCP, then look at the DHCP log to find the mystery MAC address. If you have a list of all your MAC addresses, which you do because your filtering them, the one that shows up that isnt on your list is the GT. Plus if the MAC filtering is turned off and it still dosnt work, then we will know there are other issues, while if it does connect to the internet with MAC filtering turned off then we know for a fact its a MAC Address issue.

Now if the problem is seperate from plugging the wrong MAC address into your ACL on your router, then we will have to re-look it.

Until then try to figure out what the true MAC address is for your GT, and see if its the same as the MAC address you have been placing into your ACL. I wouldnt try to change anything on the GT yet, in regards to your MAC, I have read in places that it will break your GT's wireless connection.

PLEASE!:eek:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cutterjohn:
well, I don't know the exact apps names, and don't have my GT booted now (just going out) but the normal app removal sequence won't work on those apps?

if not, just:

adb shell

cd /system/app

(they're probably all in there as they all seem to be actual Google apps, but you'll have to figure out their actual <name>.apk yourself... email MIGHT be in the /data/app directory but someone who knows better will have to tell you)

well when you get the names it'll be something like, say one app is called gtalk.apk in /system/app then to remove would be:

rm /system/app/gtalk.apk

OR you could

adb shell rm /system/app/gtalk.apk

(probably even better to back them up first by doing:

adb pull /system/app/gtalk.apk .

THEN

adb shell rm /system/app/gtalk.apk

)

dunno why you want to remove all those apps, but that should work... probably start complaining like mad as you remove them and you'll have to reboot afterwards...

adb reboot

(better wait until someone who knows better finds out why you want to do this, and what is safely removeable...)

Simple UI fixes needed

I would like the notification bar to work in portrait mode. RotateD works to rotate but the bar won't.

A unique mac address is really needed.

I would also like a back,menu and home icon on the bar. Yes there are buttons for that, but I use the stylus stick in my other hand to push a button instead of tap an icon.

Kind of like having to use the mouse in the middle of typing.:(

Need a volume control also.

None of this is other than plain vanilla Android stuff. Most of which they show in the manual.

It would be nice but not a show stopper if the Micro USB connector could be a host, with mouse/keyboard/memory stick drivers. Why else include the Micro B to Female A cable. This could be a hardware issue and no patch can fix it. OK I can live with that.
