http://www.google.com/mobile/android/ Everyone should be able to go there from their browser and click on "Learn More" under any of the apps to download.

All reviews I've seen about youtube say that the mobile site m.youtube.com is much more friendly and easier to use. I use the mobile site vice the app on my other Android devices.

(Test me that firmware but not support flash).

Αnyone have a solution to this problem??

And the youtube player have a Problem not open......

Sorry for the bad english. :p
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] kamchatka:
This tablet will not support Flash player. You need a cortex A8 or better for that.

Meanwhile the youtube 1.6.2 apk seems to work.

For flash websites you can use skyfire browser.

This works for some modems however it is advised to check the number to use. I had to reset mine to the manufacturors defaults to get the modem to work. Now it works thanks for the tip it got me started in my search. Anyway when they sell unblocked keys it sometimes happens that they test the modem and they sometimes leave a bad setting behind. So I got mine working by :

1) Remove the security key on the sim

2) Checking the strings to send on the modem website.

3) Resetting the modem to the factory defaults using the code from step 2.

Now it work.

The "Flash" some versions of the FT3 are claiming to have are using an html5 converter to play flash content. They are not using native Adobe Flash. See the second post HERE. My post HERE talks about the adobe release (wallaby) of this concept.

thanks a lot my friend!! i intalled it 10 minutes ago. better and a liitle bit faster from android 2.1 of course! the only problem is that i cannot use the app2sd. always says "failed moving". is there anything i can do to fix it? thanks again for your help to the rookie...!! :)

I was able to flash it from 1623 to froyo2.2 using stragulus instructions here : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12648873&postcount=1693. Btw, I do not have u-boot version 0.6.1.5 installed. Does it matter?

However, when it booted into home screen, everything froze. I wasn't able to activate anything..no response from screen, buttons etc. Had to do a reset and flashed back o 1623.

Any help here please? Thank you.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Jiggity Janx:
As there is limited memory when installing all your apps to internal memory, anyone missing app2sd (which is currently everyone :-) can install "Link2SD" which has been noted as working by multiple people in the threads over HERE. This will allow for install of many more apps until the official FT3 firmware can support it and it can be ported to the FT2.

*EDIT NOTE: Some have said they have had issues with this working, but it may be because you have to partition your sd card.

As a side note I also recommend installing aTrackDog (free) which gives those whose Market will not track your currently installed apps and versions better management over them.

Connecting devices: Connect the tablet and computer with a USB cable(male to male), one end to the USB OTG interface(close to the Audio output) of the tablet and one end toPC. Get ready for boot the tablet. Press Power+Menu to boot the 10 inch tablet and Power+Vol+ for 8 inch one. Then the PC shows new hard drive detected. After the drive is installed according to the drive program in the OTG Driver file, you can begin burning.

I don't know about that, as it flashes 100% and I still see no version number. I redownloaded the .bin and flashed it, and managed to boot to the lock screen, but the pad locks up then and is unresponsive. Upon rebooting it seems to only get to the android boot animation, and it vibrates once like it's going to start, but then simply locks up.

I burned with win7 32 bit, drivers installed fine, device is recognized, even asks me to pull the cable and reboot after done. I used the same settings as your screenshot, all to no avail.

I know my hardware is the same as all the others (well, I know it's not one of the "cheap" versions with cut corners and no gps module) so I don't know what's going on.

flying 2

mine it's not working well after the update...slow youtube,and more...somebody have the 2.1 original rom? thanks
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] blissb2599:
Thinking about reverting...

This was a mixed result for me... I installed the ROM on a tablet that has never had anything done to it. It only has the updates it came from the vendor with. On boot, the numbers are 0.6.1.5 (559). The update went flawlessly.

The Good: :)

The tablet has not locked up once on me with the new ROM -- that's great!

Overall, the speed is better, and the screen is much more responsive (though the calibration is off just a tiny bit).

Most importantly, Angry Birds is smooth, and doesn't crash! :cool:

The Bad: :(

No YouTube (It worked before the update).

No Flash (that really hurts).

LauncherPro Plus makes it so slow as to be unusable :eek: (now using OpenHome 6, which is better than the default, but not as awesome as LauncherPro).

I cannot install RootUninstall (which gives the option to back up the system APK files).

Cannot move any of the apps to SD (even with app2sd free).

So -- being the noob that I am, I couldn't figure out how to backup the original ROM (tried, just failed repeatedly) and just "went for it." If anybody has the original, I'd also be grateful for it -- even though I'm not sure I'm going to revert at this moment, I'm definitely considering it.

Also -- any tips to tweak this beast would be appreciated. I've been learning a lot about this machine. Thank you all for the education!

Most importantly -- thank you to stragulus and Jiggity Janx for all the hard work and great info!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ilikenwf:

The firmware has already been rooted! You can connect using adb over wifi, and type 'su' to become root. Find your IP address using the Android System Info app.

make your device faster

Hello to every one

I just bought a superpad (infotmic) 10" . I don't know what firmware was installed in my pad when i bought it. I performed an update through the <<upgrade system>> option of the setting menu.

After this update, i noticed that the speakers always makes a noisy sound (even if everything is muted). So i went on and installed the: Gome Superpad firmware update 3245 Android2.1/stable/smooth/fast/unofficial but the problem with the sound still exists.

Because i am almost sure the sound problem didn't exist when i bought the superpad i am trying to recover the pad to its original state.

I am trying to bring my tab to recovery menu so as to reinstall the initial firmaware (i have tried all the possible combinations pressing the HOME , MENU, VOLUME +/- power buttons by no lack untill now)

Question 1

Does the superpad has the initial firmware stored inside the machine? And can i perform a full recovery? (as i would do in a windows vista machine). If yes which is the correct button combination so as to access the recovery menu

Question 2

When i turn on my machine on the down right cornen i see the following numbers 0.6.1.5(559). This mean that i have install froyo on my machine ???

Except from the sound problem, everything else works flawlessly in my pad.

i Would appreciate any help

YouTube Works

Thank for the tips! Was finally able to get the Uninstaller for Root installed by removing the SD card. Also, YouTube 1.6.21 worked perfectly! I'm back to essentially where I was in terms of functionality, with better response on the touch screen, and still have not had the system lock on me. Once in a while I get a "force close" or "wait" dialog -- but usually "wait" works just fine.

The only thing I miss at this point is a decent home replacement -- LauncherPro is still just way too slow. Any recommendations would be appreciated!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] wd5gnr:
I did the Froyo install but it hung during Android boot animation or just after start up depending on how fast it boots. But it will start up and unlock if you are lucky. Then I read the part about uBoot. Doh!

Unfortunately I don't have any real XP machines at the moment. I have done burntool before -- I am 99% sure -- under VirtualBox but I could not get it or the other flash tool to flash uboot into U0. So I tried my Vista laptop (which normally boots into Kubuntu) but it kept telling me the "USB device had malfunctioned" and would hard crash. The Wife's Win7 machine is 64 bit so that's not go. I disocovered the old XP box in the garage (yes, I have a computer in my garage) apparently has bit the dust.

So I will have to scare up a Windows machine. Meanwhile I flashed the latest version of the Eclair-based stuff using a recovery SD card and that worked fine so at least I didn't hard brick anything.

Anyone know how to load uBoot onto the thing with Linux? Or with an SD card? Otherwise I will try again when I can locate a working XP box.

Insensitive Touchscreen

Hi stragulus,

"As for the SD-card based firmware: Yeah, you need the pointer calibration file for that one to work. The built-in calibration program doesn't work, and ruins the touchscreen calibration. In the NAND firmware, it installs a precalibrated file and then removes write rights from the folder it's installed in, so the calibration program cannot overwrite it anymore."

Unlike some of the posts my screen is almost impossible to use around the edges

- just where the icons are on the Home screen!!!! I've updated through several of the releases, ending on 3245 before FROYO, and achieved a super sensitive screen - but this one is only possible to use in the centre.

Is there going to be even a remote possibility of increasing the sensitivity?

Excellent ROM in all other aspects. Many thanks for all your hard work.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] SmaRkieS:
Just format it back using HP USB Format Tool, to restore the size, and do the mSD clone.

For me, still I have no hope of flashing it successfully, I just flash it back to old 3245 firmware.

And wait for the clean and easy procedure on updating to froyo.

I hope mods can update the first page, coz when I read back there are some suggestions on steps on how to do it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Tugdu77:
Well, after flashing it 20 times I finally arrived to the unclock screen of android. But impossible to unclock the tablet...it is totally frozen. The "slide to unclock" doesn't react...I had to reboot it. And still freeze on the Android stock logo...

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] verandi:
Hi everyone.

I just made a personal version of system.tar.gz, and I thought it could be usefull for someone.

Most considerable changes:

Calendar and contacts synchronization now working again.

Simple stock froyo keyboard, without chinese characters.

Replaced youtube with the old working version.

Market updated to last version (no paid apps, though.).

Default launcher replaced with launcher pro, which is considerably faster.

Removed phone and telephony settings (see below)

Other changes:

Removed stock browser, replaced with dolphin browser HD.

Removed default file explorer, replaced with File expert (first free file explorer with working root that I found).

Changed alarm clock.

Changed calculator (but has wrong visualization).

Changed music player with music mod.

Added facebook, maps (+ navigation + latitude +places), chrome to phone, google search, google reader, terminal emulator, Titanium backup, voice search. adobe reader.

Maybe I deleted some other stupid flytouch stock apps, but actually I don't remember. :)

Warning, notes etc...:

All apps are free apps from market.

Phone apps (Phone.apk, TelephonySettings.apk) removed for test, due to suspected battery drain (Someone said so...), so:

Phone settings don't work (gives you force close when you tap on mobile settings menu)

Don't install if you use 3g adapters, as I think you won't be able to use them.

Maybe some future workarounds for paid apps on market won't work.

App2sd doesn't work. (Didn't even work before. I think there's some problem in the kernel with device mapper and crypto). I'll try to implement the fake app2sd that uses an ext partition on sd.

This is just a personal versionof stargulus' system files with apps I'm used to have on my phone, so maybe it won't fit you. :)

How to install:

First important step: boot in recovery mode (back + home +power until you get in recovery menu), and wipe cache and data. This must be done. It also helps to have stragulus' calibration file installed correctly.

Prepare the sd as described in the first post of this thread using the last Stragulus' sdcard image (v4, See link in this post).

Go to "stage2" directory and replace system.tar.gz and system.tar.gz.md5 with the downloaded ones.

Flash.

The first boot will be quite long, but it's normal.

While using the flytouch for the first time, it will probably lag and hang. Just reboot and it won't happen anymore.

File link: http://www.multiupload.com/Z9CONJVPQO

I hope this will be usefull. Advices are welcome. :)

Guys can some one plz help me this is really annoying me now i can not seem to get my flytouch2 to boot from sd card.... i have used winhex and everything copied ok but just wont boot from sd card. just boots as normal it is in the top slot :S plz really want froyo and is there another way to install it without using sdcard?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] verandi:
This happened to me, too. Just use winhex once with sdcard.img (as you already did), and then with aben.start.sector.001 file attached in this post (on the same sdcard).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jamiecoleman1:
so shall i use winhex for the aben.start file and repeat the same steps i did for the sdcard.img as the card says after using winhex that i need to format it. obv i dont then but how do i install the aben.start file??
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] verandi:
It's strange that it tells you to format the sd card, after copying sdcard.img. The steps I do are:

Full format (with overwrite) the sd card with sd formatter.

Clone sdcard.img with winhex.

(At this point, try to close winhex and explore the sd card. It has to show you "stage2" and "android" directories.)

Clone aben.start with winhex, as you did with sdcard.img.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jamiecoleman1:
im using the clone tool in winhex as in the instructions right and ye i dont know why i have tryed formatting and starting over same thing happens :S i have another sd card will give that 1 a try
