Hello! I upgraded the firmware to 1204, feels not much has changed compared to 1030. I want to connect 3g modem ZTE FM100, very good signal but no internet. I do the following:

Remove CD-Rom with the command AT + ZCDRUN = 8

Insert the USB-zt180.click settings- Wireless & Networks - Mobile Networks-access point name - new APN

Name: Beeline

APN: internet.beeline.ru

Username: Beeline

Password: Beeline

(I'm in Russia)

Restart Zt180, but still can not enter the internet.

We hope to help more. Thanks! Excuse my English

Could anyone tell me if it's recommend to upgrade from 1030 up to 1204. What's the difference between the two versions ?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] game #1:
yeah, this is right question. why need to upgrade to 1204 from 1030 if there is still no froyo, no flash 10.1 and some problems flashing this version. i guess it's not worth to change anything. just for enthusiasts who love experimenting with their ZTs.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] wasserkapf:
It appears that the 1204 version can be flashed using the microSD card. This means no more reliance on Windows to update this tablet. In fact, you may not even need to use a PC, except to maybe download the update.

Since I am a Linux user, this point is important.

Hi!

Has anybody who can use the skype in the ZT-180?

Can anybody help me the settings of the 3G USB Stick?Alcatel One Touch X200 the mobile server is the Telenor Hungary.

is it a new firmware?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] alex-art:
4 hours with WiFi on? G-sensor? They must be kidding :eek:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] wasserkapf:
According to the included instructions, the first time you still need to flash it using WinXP and a USB connection. Any further updates should be able to be done via the microSD (aka:TF) card.

Also, I don't see the ftdi zImages like were in the beta release. I'm not even sure what it was for. Can anyone clue me in?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] karlonicolas:
after a long wait for an official 1126 FW release, i finally installed 1204. very happy with 1204! noticeable faster (by more than 10% IMHO). thanks to all beta testers for job well done. i am sure your comments and observations were helpful in creating this release.

I also have the same question as wasserkapf. i do not see the ftdi images, nor the dual boot images. i'm particularly interested in dual boot or enabling sd mass storage. is it safe to install dual boot image or mass storage image, or does this mean they are still both in beta release, which zenithink did not adopt?

for noobs like me, this is what i did to install 1204 - click settings, check everything (except wince) even scrub. make sure that the images are properly selected.

there was an initial error (appearing in the burntool window only) when i first flashed 1204, but it disappeared after a second flash. The first error though did not affect the tablet (i think), but i did not want to take any chances so i flashed it again.

cheers!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] karlonicolas:
yes recommended. despite all temptation to flash 1126 beta, i resisted. 1204 is worth the wait. graphics appears better. speed is noticeably faster. market and everything else works.

i am not sure about 3g usb modem use (after adding the apn my huwaei modem works even if not listed in compatible modem list), but i am confident it will also work in this release.

go ahead take the leap :-)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] karlonicolas:
i think there are details missing that is why it is not working. shouldn't there by a proxy and port (8080) in the apn? also an mcc and others? this was the initial problem with my usb stick, but after placing the proxy, port and other info in the apn, it worked.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] karlonicolas:
did you enter the settings in burntool? checked all? ensured all the files are properly indicated? checked scrub?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lmemperador:
can anybody confirm that mass storage is working ok in 1204 rom?

i have read some post with issues with that thing in another forums.

the only thing with issues.

i am on 1126 now, and very happy with mass storage
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] karlonicolas:
When you mentioned "the only thing with issues", does this mean i can use dual boot and ftdi images?

yes please answer if mass storage is ok or still in beta. it would be great to have mass storage.

thanks!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rdnckreaper:
i have not been able to get my usb gps to work and I bought one that had been used on the 1126 firmware. as far as bluetooth, i am waiting to hear back from one of the developers as to what he needs from me to implement a standard csr bluetooth compatibility. I have everything for both windows and linux for this device and I have 5 of them, all different, and all work on my computer and in my virtualizations on linux distros.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rdnckreaper:
The thing I think would be awesome is if they gave us access to all the 256 mb of ram. i think it is crazy that 180 is all that can be used and then 80 of that is for the os. The remaining 76 mb is stationary for the usb ports, micronet port, and wifi. If it would just be available across the board and when one of those is used then take up the space then that would be awesome. I mean i can't even play a game that I play on my phone because it is too slow. I love the duck hunter game and the nesoid emulator and I can't use either because the thing lags too much.

I actually received a zt-180 for christmas along with my boyfriend mother.. hers came mine is still shipping.. we are having a serious problem trying to get it to connect through wifi, the pc, and direct cable. right now it has 1030 preinstalled on it and i'm kinda a noob i tried the root tutorial for the ip issue to no avail .. if some one could please help i've been at this sense 1pm today... ty

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lmemperador:
in 1126 beta ...yes, with dual kernel

in 1204 i'm not sure
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] omarahum:
Not sure exactly what type of problem you are having since you didn't provide any specifics, but for some people, they just had to make sure their ethernet was disabled in settings for the wifi to start working, and some people also needed to set their ip address manually in the wifi/advanced settings......
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] todivine:
i started off with trying to manually set ip address to no avail as well as a direct cable connection.

then tried changing the TxPower=100 to value of 20 .. from here then changed it to TxPower=40 found here

also tried turning off ethernet and still no connection.

currently attempting to install fw 1204 but we are unable to make the winxp even see the device

this epad actually shipped from the us and the other one is shipping directly from china i'm worried i will have that same issues with both.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rdnckreaper:
As far as the gps I have tried everything and can't get anything to work. I plug it in and run navigation, i run different map apps and even andronav2 but i cannot get a lock anywhere. I know the dongle works because I installed a pc naviagation on a laptop of mine and plugged in the dongle and it downloaded the drivers and worked great on a trip i took.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rdnckreaper:
Has anyone figured out how to make a userdata.img of the their current installs so the time to reconfigure the device is cut down to a minimum? I want to update to 1204 but dont want the hassle of reconfiguring everything because it took me like 4 hours total after 1126.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] omarahum:
So what happens exactly when you turn the wifi off and then on? Have you gone to the menu and been able to scan? Some people have openned their tablet and have found that the wifi chip wasn't soldered in properly and used an external usb wifi dongle (chipset of RT2070 or RT3070) and either replaced the internal one or use it outside on the usb port (like I do).

Have you ever seen the satellite icon appear? Were you outside with a clear view of the sky when you tried it on the tablet? Which dongle are you using? Where do you have it hooked up?

So you have burned the 1126, easy solution then, don't copy the userdata.pack.img to the /sdcard/zt-update folder, that's what I did, just put the zImage, system.pack.img, and ZT_Bx.spl files there when you flash it. You will have to reroot and do all the system file fixes again (including removing unwanted apps from the /system/app folder), but you won't have to reinstall all your apps.....
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] madscalp:
Hi omarahum

Easy way but exactly with burntool we need to put system.pack.img , zImage,ZT_bx except user.data.img ? All right ?

Could you explain again the way to flash to avoid a fastidious restore of previous settings ?

Many thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hal_9000:
For those asking about mass storage. If you ask wheter it continues being supported the answer is yes, you can select the ADB or mass storage kernel at boot by pressing the left or right (I don't remember) button. If what you're asking is if it works fine, then I've no idea since I haven't tested it yet.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rdnckreaper:
No I have never seen the satellite icon and I have stood outside for 45 mintues before. And I am using the same dongle that you started using to test. That CanMore dongle that you wrote about in another forum and I putchased the exact one that you said that you had.

To be honest with you I was curious as to if the answer was that simple but really didn't want to try it till I got a confirmation.

So it keeps everything that I have already installed and I just have to do the initial system settings setup so my pandahome setting should stay the same?

Flashed 1204

Hi everybody!

I'm newcomer and hope to be of help and to be helped =)

I have just flashed the 1204 fw. All seems to work fine.

I signed in GMail, sync my account and went to Market and installed:

UniversalAndRoot 1.6.1

RootExplorer 2.8.4

ADW Launcher 1.3.6

Senses ADW Theme

All this stuff works great!

I wasn't able to test mass storage because I don't found the driver for my tablet. When I connect it to my PC, I see the popup "Android device" but cannot resume installation because I haven't the driver. I gonna search for it.

I'll send my feedback on the run.

Greetings!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hal_9000:
I think you're getting it wrong. You only need the driver to make an ADB connection, if you boot with the mass storage kernel, then the tablet should be recognized just as an standard USB drive by the PC OS, without the need of any added driver.

I haven't checked usb gps on 1204 yet, been busy shoveling from the blizzard, I'll try and see if my dongle works with this ROM when i get a chance, maybe next year (sunday).

Well it will boot with the default launcher adw that's in system/app, but anything stored in your /data should survive the flash if you don't include the userdata file in the /zt-update folder....
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hal_9000:
So it's not exporting the micro-SD as an standard USB drive after all? That's weird. The micro-SD card on my HTC Magic is recognized perfectly by any Windows without the need of drivers when I share it from the phone.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rdnckreaper:
well I am doing a check disk on my tf and then I am going to do the update and see about the gps so I might be able to tell you about it first and then if i get it to work then great and if not then I will just wait for you and see what I can do differently.

I got snowed in for 2 days because the hill leading to my house was iced over for a couple days.

I have enjoyed my z-180 after several system updates to 1030. The effort in further updating to 1204 however failed as the green block for device 10 does not show up on the burntool. There seems to be problem for my PC(vista) to recognize z-180 which did not happen before. Would appreciate someone throw me the rescue rope.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] spongai:
Plug into usb modem, go Settings - Wireless & networks and check on wcdma option box, then go Mobile network settings: check on Data roaming. Go to Acces point name and new APN, the write next options:

Name: Telenor Net

APN: net

MCC: 216

MNC: 01

Authentication type: PAP

Save and reboot device. You must check on wcdma option and reboot device if you use the mobile usb modem. I hope ZT supporting your modem, cause mine T-Mobile is working fine.

Good luck and best reg.

I've read alot here but never post. This is my first one.

Quick question for you guys: I'm shopping for a tablet for my wife and the ZT180 10" got my attention. Then I found a 8" tablet from vostrostone.com using Arm Cortex A8 1GHz Processor and 512MB ram.

My question is, which one is better, the ZT180 or Cortex A8? They both about the same price and my wife is ok with a 7 or 8". Thanx alot
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] omarahum:
(So your wife is cool with a smaller unit, nice, lucky you.....)

Hardware wise, go for the Cortex A8 with the 512, it will be honeycomb ready, ZT-180 is slower (ARM11 v6 rev5) and only has 256 mem, and 1/4th is reserved for video....................
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] karlonicolas:
i trust you pressed the menu+power button to place it in flash mode?

if so, then perhaps you can try deleting the installed windows driver (secbulk), then re-connect the slate while in flash mode, so that windows can detect it and do a fresh install of the windows driver. i think it's a software driver issue with your vista computer, that is why your slate is not being detected. a fresh driver installation may do the trick.

if this doesn't work, then try using another usb cable, or connecting to another usb port. i hope it's not a hardware issue.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] karlonicolas:
usb webcam

sorry for asking (if this was already answered), does 1204 have usb webcam support?

if so, what application can i use to make the webcam work? the camera in gallery does not work but keeps on fc.

thanks for your help!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] guitarbreaker7:
Thanks omarahum and hal_9000 for the quick answer!!

Do you mean that installing "HTC_Sync 2.0.40.exe" I'll able to mount the SD card like mass storage?

I still couldn't figure out if 1204 fw includes dual-boot or mass storage like the 1126 fw. When device starts, briefly appears, below ePAD logo, a message showing: "Menu.. Android Mass Storage", therefore I think it includes this capacity.

I keep investigating.

Greetings!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rdnckreaper:
So is it something they are talking about bringing back or is it something that I will have to figure out how to create a system.img and input my devices that way?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] karlonicolas:
yes i saw that "Android Mass Storage appear for 1/4th of a second before disappearing. i pressed the right volume to do this.

if you press the left volume, you go into sd card flash and the pad looks for the files in the tfcard directory.

my question - i am already in android mass storage mode (i pressed left volume) but after connecting the usb to the pc, the slate is still recognized as adb device and not a usb mass storage device. do i have to install tge htc sync software so that the slate will be recognized as a mass storage device?

thanks!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] hal_9000:
I'm not sure about the ZT-180, because I didn't test it yet (I'll do it soon), but even assuming that you don't need a driver (or that the driver is already installed) to see the card as an USB drive you usually need to export it from the device, after connect the USB cable. For example, in the HTC Magic when you connect the USB cable the device is first recognized as ADB and an icon appears on the notification area. Then if you tap that icon the micro-SD card is unmounted on the device and then exported as an USB drive to the PC. But, as I said, I don't know yet if it works like that on the ZT-180.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Afteraffekt:
I have this tablet and am trying to see what I can do with it. I also have an LG Ally - so I understand Linux. Has this device had a recovery made? Any custom ROMS? ANYTHING to make it faster? I read the first 15 pages and saw there were over 200 and said oh no lol.

Your wife might not have problems with a smaller unit, but I am pretty sure she won't like resistive screens. I wouldn't buy her any unit that doesn't have a capacitive screen. The capacitive screen makes the user experience for a tablet. Apple's iPad has a capacitive screen, that is why you can easily navigate and type with your fingers.

If you get a resistive screen you will more than likely need to use a stylus to properly operate the device.

I am new in here so I dont realy now how this works! I have a Infotmic 10" Wowpaw and I used only once. Now the peace dont work anymore, just starts goes to second green page ho says powered by Wowpad and stays there. Some one can help me?

Hey thanks for the info. I am going to try to get something going at least for my bluetooth and my gps and my webcam. Hopefully all will work out. Now the other thing that I am cuious about is the adb, I haven't been able to figure out how to access the tools in the sdk. And I am told that is what is adb is but the only thing I have been able to get going with it is to run a virtualization of one of the .img files provided with a firmware update. Like I said that system I am using has eclispe and sdk as a module within it. What do i need to do differently?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] omarahum:
Again, all that stuff is over my head, but for adb, I used to just type commands from the command prompt from the the C:\android-sdk-windows\tools (now C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools) folder (or just add the subfolder into your path), but since 1126 beta (now 1204), just been using Android Commander http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=597098, since adb over USB is enabled with the recent ROMs.......

Old way of connecting - http://www.slatedroid.com/wiki/index.php?title=Wiki:ZT-180_FAQ/Android_Basics#ADB_Basics

Now just plug into the OTG port (and if you are using the command prompt, adb remount).

I only ever used the emulator to get my android ID when it was needed......
