;) Ok, I gotta admit I use another phone for calls usually, son HD2 isn't my primary phone for that matter. :D

I'm still on the fence about cooked Roms, I believe they aren't bug free either and besides, I'm worried about software conflicts (?), so I'm not sure. Not to mention all the hassle if ever needed to revert to stock roms. I guess a bit of 'bricking' phobia too.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development] ammmma2:
Now NEOPEEK decided to create a fully working minimum system for you which I call Barebone. It's based on CM6.1 Nightly of 9th October. I had to exclude some apps to get it to a stage where it is releasable.

What's exluded:

•Browser

•GenieWidget

•Gmail

•Camera

•Voicesearch

•This & That...

What you get:

A ultrafast & speedy CyanogenMod 6.1 with fully working Market. I would say this is also the fastest CyanogenMod-Port which I released until now.

Notice:

If you need a Browser then move to the Market and grab Opera Mini. It works like a charm on this release and is very fast compared to the stock froyo browser! I couldn't get any other browser to work so don't waste your time. Simply go to Market and install Opera Mini!!! Don't try to integrate / reput Gmail and stock Browser into this Build. It won't work and I please you to not post comments like "Browser is missing" or "I tried to install stock Browser.apkor Gmail.apk etc...".

As mentioned above I am still working on a full CM6.1 release so you have to be patient if you are looking for that. Nevertheless especially HTC Diamond users should be fully satisfied with this Barebone release due to the fact that it is fast. You get a Barebone and have the Market also included to build your own system from scratch.

Keep in mind to not play around with stock Browser and Gmail. Therefore if you urgently need Gmail-App you should go with CM6.0.

Screenshot:

(without overclock, it is really that good! try it out and report! -chann)

You will have to open up all apps once and then reboot your device to get the full performance out of this release!!

Please update your signature! It's always hard to find out which device / smartphone you use and which kernel(s) you are referring to

Hi all,

I just got the new Toshiba Folio 100 Today. it's (i think) the most powerfull tablet at this moment with his Tegra dual core proc. My question is if it's possible to root that tablet in order to have androit market and install custom rom??

Thanks all for your response...

Hi,

Sorry I haven't got an answer to your query, but do you mind saying where you got the unit from.

Thanks

[Folio 100 General] tshoulihane:
Where has stock?

Try using the nvflash utility from nvidia in their linux4tegra package. You need to work out if the device will boot up in flashing mode. If so, you ought to be able to download the system partition, loop mount it, add su, and re-upload. Works on the AC100 which looks very similar.
[Folio 100 General] drannibal:
Hi guys,

Thanks for your answer! I found the device in France cause i'm french... Sorry about that! :)

Hope that someone Will root the device and kitchen somers good roms!

its no Gtablet initially, Recovery firmware is different and the 2button power up+down does not work on this toshiba..

Power+up gives a textbased recovery to factory settings only. (probably a wipe of DATA+CACHE partitions) , so not much recovery here yet.

there is no axx. to the APX driver yet, im trying some different key operations, and btw, ABD does not work it seems to (i tried the SDK pack, but no adb activation)

sofar, less impressive of the machine, screen does not work in "portrait" mode at all, i think.. its a native landscape tablet..

Are you guys using nvflash successfully? Last I heard there was some BSOD going on...
[Folio 100 General] Vu2007:
I tested with the latest rockplayer (universal v1.2.20). This version supposes to be dual core player/system player which support most hardware (not tegra2 platform obviously) It refused to play mkv 720p/1080p with option "hardware" on but it plays with software decoder but out of sync and laggy!

I returned my folio for some days ago mainly because of the hardware buttons, unstable battery/the "froyo-shell" its self on the Folio 100.

I'm glad to see some progress here with the folio, you guys at xda amaze me really!

good luck!
[Folio 100 General] kaivish:
so this probably merans that the hardware is properly built, but the software is really just junk that they put in it. seems like devs will have to build the whole OS thing from the ground up with the stock froyo ( or hopefully gingerbread when it shows up!:rolleyes: )

what toshiba software devs did to the folio , can it be characterized as laziness, or just plain stupidity from their part?

anyways, apparently some users mentioned that the folio will be back on the shelves in the uk maybe wednesday, in dixons, pcworld etc in the uk. they have had so much recalls now, hopefully they made an android OS that makes use of the hardware and fixed some serious issues.
[Folio 100 General] Dexter_nlb:
thanks alot!!!!

that looks like exactly what i would need here too..ill download and use that binary...
[Folio 100 General] Dexter_nlb:
i have not changed many binaries (primarily some libs) in my firmware, but the machine really does tilt screen, and i can watch 360 degree on it.

not sure if calendar app worked in stock fw, anyways looking at calendar here, i can watch that in any direction, so sensor seems to work perfect here.

so the problems with tilt left/right in asphalt could actually be some software issue as this one is not know? (strange but it could be)

but it works..
[Folio 100 General] mddsd:
Did you play MKV 720p (H264) with the YX Player?

Do you know if support for multitouch works for stock browser etc.

The version of android that Toshiba inlcuded with the Folio seem to not report multitouch to all apps. For instance Google Maps does not allow pinch to zoom.

Does this work for you?
[Folio 100 General] kaivish:
well, cant say for the stock browser, use it nto so ofter. prefer dolphin hd. but still dont have pinch to zoom like on the htc desire i have. but installed fennec forefox on the folio, and there u have pinch to zoom. apparently the build of froyo toshiba used is really bad, it is not implementing any hardware the device has.

some other user also reported that he/she has pinch to zoom in dolphin browser from the toshiba market place.

i do not download anything from the toshiba market place, there is almost nothing there anyways. just side loading everything from my htc desire.

anyone having issues receiving files over bluetooth on the folio? it seems i cant receive any file from my htc desire to the folio via bluetooth.

I think the Tosh market place got a little update yesterday. Indeed before there was not much there. I had like 400 entries under games. Since yesterday it shows 944. I agree, still not much but at least it seems someone is working on filling some database there..

If they are serious about their own market then I hope they put some more resources on it or let the community help.

Communication: 100, Dictionaries: 291, Game: 944, Internet: 4, MultiMedia: 45, News: 0, Personal: 109, Travel: 1, Utility: 316

GREAT NEWS!!!!

With Nvidia's latest SDK i have got the GL 2.0 working..

Angry birds now work in fullscreen and perfect touchscreen.

Fish screensaver was also showing GL bugs, which were not pefect..but is perfect now!

If i just can get the "update-binary" to accept API 3, it would be a perfect release to make.. with almost stock android + Nvidia settings, so zoom is enabled for apps needing it.

/system partition of 185MB seems also less used, as i managed to reformat and got 268MB now :-)

ill keep testing, and see if i can find a way to make a release..

is it not about time we got our own section for this tablet?
[Folio 100 General] Dexter_nlb:

It was realy simple, First you have to install google sdk or just collect the driver file android_winusb.inf, modifie it in order to reconise the tegra device (just follow the Gtablet root forum they are many), and launch SuperOneClick. thats all.

that is sadly no solution if all other files is signed incorrectly, which is the case here, just give me a chance to find a solution, ill try later today..

But if you're persistent and know what you're doing with apk's and jar's

1. get gapps-mdpi from CM6 release

2. exttract all files from Folio, rerun with private sig.

3. run this on the google files too CM6 (except the updateable ones like youtube,twitter etc..)

in GoogleServicesframework.apk find the smali with a Replace command with ":" to "" , and put "." there..

otherwise,

Wait! until i make the release.
[Folio 100 General] kaivish:
@ Dexter_nlb

How is it coming with the hardware buttons? Its issues is definitely software based as a fresh reboot makes them very resoonsive.

Another thing, some people want to port the archos 101 rom to the advent vega, u think its possible to rip the media player and codecs from the archos to implement it in ur folio rom?

This would give us a very broad file type support. Then we could play anything with the folio!

awsome work. will try this release soon.

one question though, installing this rom will cause the warranty to be void?

i will try to find a rom dump from the archos 101. will post it here when i find it.

in ur rom, do u get any system hangs? because this is what makes the hardware buttond unresponsive, some process is overloading the processor. the froyo build used by tosh is really bad. u used another build?
[Folio 100 General] Dexter_nlb:
I have seen the problem, but i did not spent time investigating why it happens.

But no, as our hardware is not fully compatible (Nvidia has a native 1366x768 screen, we got only native 1000x600) , so its really hard to use all binaries of another release, same goes for the other gpad etc...

but sure, ill investigate the issue, but it seems to relate from the "wakeup" when its going to deep-standby..

I made a stock mod of the image too, which i upload last, this can be put on the machine if hardware somehow does not work, and you can still install. (remember its automated if sdcard is in slot when you start update firmware)

so i think you're safe.. and warranty should not be broken due to this.. but maybe...

[Folio 100 General] Dexter_nlb:
you should remember that Nvidia is behind the platform development here, so we dont get much from toshiba.

But since EGL 2.0 works now from Nvidia, which i included in my mod, we only need proper development on it, as i tried 3 versions of NFS shift, and all show incorrect graphics, which again is because our hardware support different tech's i guess, or EGL is still not 100% but its known from galaxy,milestone etc, that game builds are specific for the model, which sux...

anyways i only blame toshiba for the poor release which again is based on the fact, that Nvidia didnt deliver :-( secondly Google do not support such a platform with froyo 2.2 so toshiba is pretty much left alone, until they make a model with GSM support and GPS , which will probably allow it to join the google approved platform.
