[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DaremoS:
Froyo complex USB capabilities

Froyo have a function to activate and deactivate USB port.

It's in notifications. It will show USB connected and the icon, then you must choose any of the options... appear a message saying "Select to copy files to/from your computer"... then select.

Will appear a green android. "Turn on USB storage" will connect to PC.

Red android "Turn off USB storage" will disconnect.

Plug will be in place no need to unplug.

The you can use ADB (option USB debugging)

Or you can plug a mouse, a keyboard, an external disc, a 3G dongle or a bluetooth dongle. (Option USB Host)

Somebody do some testings on this (search in Archos forum) Birdie... whateva.

Our RK2818 has this features as USB port is OTG (on-the-go) by definition.

As I see this is not a failure... it's a wonderful capability, unfortunately poorly documented.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DaremoS:
Open Market, in Home screen (can be seen Features), broke to tablet Home.

Open Applications of Settings, clear cache of Market and data of Google Framework Services.

Reboot and try again with Market.

There is a more detailed procedure in 1st. post of this thread.

Just decided to re-flash my Odys with the Prestigio firmware yesterday, waiting the 8.4" new rom.

@ DaremoS

I can read/write from PC on the Flash-Memory and the SD-Card with Froyo v5(Odys Genesis).

ADB works fine, if I got your question. :-)

By the way is it really possible to browse via usb-connection to PC ?? (musedream mentioned it)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MajstorSpeedy:
Don't even try to run a 3.0 or newer on this device.

They all have pretty high system requirements that exceeds the possibilities of RK2818 chipset. Allmost impossible allthough it can be done but it wouldn't be functional as it should be.

In that matter consider yourself buying some of the high-end tablets like Motorola Xoom, Acer A500 iconia tab, Samsung 10 Galaxy or similar...

And to answer the question, 3.0 and newer androids were build to support tablets with an screen size of 10"+

Some of the manufacturers are having trouble with release of their tablets with this OS and combo of an 7" screens.

We'll have to wait for an IcecreamSandwich for some updates on that issue.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DaremoS:
Thanks for the info... it seems that I have a problem with USB for ADB.

I recall a ROM that have it blocked... some tablet POV whateva (Swedish GB) thus I wasn't able to get the ROM with AFPtool.

Ok, thank you for the answer.

I love the Honeycomb graphic design, so i tried to ask..

I supposed it was too high for our tablets.

Ok, let's wait our 8.4" rom.

Just a request: i love the animated background, as you can find in the 2.1 firmware.

Froyo v5 didnt support this backgrounds...it didnt have them in the background options.

Is it possible to add them to the rom you are developing? =)

I love the "moving grass" one..lol
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] musedream:
why does the android market recognize my odys genesis as an A70BHT Archos Tablet device?

nothing seems to be supported by this device

how could i modify this false system tag?

it's happened after the installation of the Froyo V5, but i re-flashed

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DaremoS:
You need to run the procedure to clean Market, explained in first post:

Here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12008152&postcount=1

Everytime you load a new firmware or ROM this can be necessary.

That of A70BHT is because we use other firmware to make work our Froyo.

ROMs aren't the same than firmware, ROMs are firmwares modified to include enhancements like rooting, access to Market (which isn't open to everybody), size of screen (8.4" instead of 7"), to mention some.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] musedream:
Ok, thank you so much..

Actually, i'm not using an edited Froyo firmware, but the original 2.1 Prestigio one (from the prestigio site).

However, i'm trying the Market Fix procedure...

Next6

Will the Froyo image work on the Nextbook Next6?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DaremoS:
Nope... its a 800x480 capacitive 7"screen

I think that an Archos tablet would do the trick.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fun_:
you said try archos rom without any change?

in general, you(everyone) should not use update.img for other different tablets. it may brick your tablet.

but porting is quite easy, unpack your update.img, replace boot.img and system.img from rom for others, then repack update.img. it's impossible to brick by this method, and no need to worry about display size difference.

why you can flash any of M901/Next3/PMP3084B/Genesis/Arnova84 roms is because they are same hardware.

you should not recommend to flash update.img for different tablets.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DaremoS:
Come on fun_ you are giving the answer:

the rest have no sense pal ... :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] musedream:

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mpdt:
The Archos 70 eReader comes with a 1GHz cpu and 8GB internal, will a custom ROM work? And do I find a custom ROM?

Also doesn't the Froyo image work on the Nextbook Next2? That one is 800 by 480 resolution.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DaremoS:
Ok muse... IMHO there is no way to keep info from previous ROM when its used hardware method as it clean all the device when flashed.

By putting update.img in main directory of sdcard (soft method) depending on boot.img can keep data from previous ROM.

Can you please show me the site where you download the firmware?

If you take it from here... I can understand your problem: we post just ROM no firmwares.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DaremoS:
It don't work correctly as screen resolution is different, images will appear distorted, and probably TS (touch screen) will be a mess.

You're doing the right thing asking before run the mill.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mpdt:
In that case where can I find a custom ROM for my Next6? I can't find any Archos forums on XDA. Google isn't helping that much.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DaremoS:
You will have to manage to get ROMs for your device, to help you here is a brief of it: Rockchip with a screen 7" capacitive that the difference with Next2, beside more memory. screen display 800x480 which is normal in 7" screens.

And here is a complete review http://www.the-ebook-reader.com/nextbook-next6.html

Our device is 8.4" resistive 800x600. It doesn't matter the memory. Matters chip, type of screen and its size.

Archos 7 Home tablet v2 seems to be a machine similar to yours. Forum is here http://forum.archosfans.com/viewforum.php?f=81 and they have a lots of dev (developers) working hard in this machine. If their ROM run in yours you'll be a very lucky users. They are also go beyond of Froyo and they are running Gingerbread 2.3.4.

Display quality?

I just received my Odys Genesis. Despite receiving mostly good reviews, the display quality disappoints me.

It looks like the screen size is not set to the panel's native resolution. Somehow similar as if I'd set my LCD monitor to 1024x768 instead of the correct 1280x1024.

The display's also lacking contrast. White pixels seem to be overdriven.

All in all: is this normal, is it a problem with my firmware (stock firmware from Odys) or is it a defect?

DO NOT FLASH ROM/UPDATE.IMG FOR OTHER TABLET. IT MAY BRICK YOUR TABLET.

I can't understand why you ignore my words and enforce people to brick their tablet. and their Gingerbread 2.3.4 is also my CyanogenMod7(explained clearly). you still can't agree I am author. mysterious.

--

for all

if you want to use rom for other tablet, you need to make custom update.img for your tablet yourself.

read this wiki

http://wiki.archosfans.com/index.php?title=Dump_your_Home_Tablet_rom_and_create_a_custom_rom

you must use update.img for your tablet and just change boot.img and system.img from rom what you want to try.

do not use RK28xxLoader(L).bin for other tablets, it may brick your tablet! some tablets use same RK28.bin but do not think it's always same. actually, many tablets use same or compatible RK28.bin, so it may work in many cases, but I do not recommend at all.

if you don't have update.img for your tablet (e.g. no official download), there is a way to dump it from your tablet. read above wiki. this way may not work on some tablet. if you can't get update.img for your tablet, do not flash update.img for other tablet!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DaremoS:
Calm down fun_ I've say thanks many times to your work in Gingerbread for RK2818. More than that... I would love that you succeed in Rockchip 3-axis Accelerometer and GPU 3D acceleration module, as I want your ROM running in my device.

and kindly don't waste time arguing with me because my matter here is to help others to have a device as good as mine. :) no other mysterious purpose :cool:

believe me nobody will brick their device :D

Users are enough smart to take care of their devices

You see If he comes here asking then he would do the same in other forums ;)

@mick232: yeah, the TS is its Achilles heel. Usage of good touchpen is recommended. I splurged 30 bucks on Griffin in Apple Store. :D

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fun_:
sorry.

there is long history about RK2818. I learned many things and I helped a lot of people from last december. (actually, I started to help people from RK2808 ages)

believe me, I'm talking a fact. some guys already bricked their RK2818 tablets by flashing update.img for another tablet. here is one example: http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/14719-bricked/

unpacking update.img and replace boot/system.img is quite easy, but disassemble tablet and short NAND pin is bit difficult.

I strongly recommend to use correct update.img and just replace only boot.img and system.img.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] mpdt:
I lost my laptop, so I can't make my own update.img.

can i update this thing? what am i doing wrong.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] musedream:
Oh, maybe I wrote something wrong, sorry.

Well, I flashed the froyo v5 rom, then I put the prestigio firmware,

then I tried the gingerbread rom, then I asked the updated firmware

to the odys support :p

I wrote a mail to the Android market support, and they answered like that:

Actually, the odys genesis is not supported by Android market,

contact your manufacturer and highlight that to them.....

That's all :(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fun_:
you can dump update.img for your tablet (if it exists in your tablet) with terminal app and temporary rooting app.

but you need to use Windows to modify update.img. and if your tablet can't boot, you need to use flash program on Windows.

unpack update.img and unpack/repack cramfs image can be done on another OS, but Windows is needed to repack update.img for now. probably I'll make tool to repack update.img at some day, but not so soon.

EDIT:

and there is another more complicated way, but I can't explain it as "easy steps" :(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DaremoS:
Musedream, It doesn't matter what odys genesis tell you.

You just install the market and do the clean and you will have it in your device.

That of the name of device doesn't count.

You can use a ROM from here or a firmware from this page http://marketing.prestigio.com/$Customer_Support/Drivers/Tablet_PC/PMP3084B/ and it will work the same.... do the CLEAN! it always work!!

Froyo V6 - correct calibration tool

Hi all! You missed me?

I'm back with another custom firmware for Next3/PMP3084/Genesis

To break it down a bit and tell you what's been done.

I've taken an official Froyo beta1 release and added root and some essential apps

so that you aren't bothered with installing Astro and Titanium.

I've removed boot screens from prestigio.

Next to be done is to fix the annoying taskbar issue and improve overall speed of the system, to add a new version of android market and to make a system little more of an lightweight.

I'm currently uploading the update.img so till then bye!

So, here we are! The brand new, rooted, screen calibrated Froyo just for you!

Froyo v6 - first impressions

My first Installation with the Rockship updatetool on my odys genesis failed. Shut down was nearly impossible. My Genesis reboots everytime... I was lucky, when I found a way to shut down by using many times the reset button.

Second Installation was successful.

---The calibration works fine. Reading E-Books is much better, because v6 uses the 8'' - display better than froyo v5

---Market is ok.

---boot time isn't very fast but ok.

---speed after booting finished is not really bad, but the latency is often bad and freezes sometimes. Froyo v5 is faster and more stable.

---video performance and quality seems to be better as in Froyo V5

---audio works fine

--- browser don't like google as before, I use skyfire

--- I like the astro

:confused:I have one big problem. I can't synchronize with the google calendar. E-Mails syncronize fine. At this point, I could use a little help. If there is no solution, I will go back to froyo v5.

Finally, the Froyo v6 shows a lot of progress with the display of our device, I think, but I need my calendar to synchronize.:mad:

But So far, thanks Majstor Speedy.

PS.: The shut down problem is back, sorry back to v5.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MajstorSpeedy:
So far this is the preliminary release of Froyo. The basics are done but there's a lot of potential in this ROM (Froyo_v6).

I will try to fix the issue with browser but anyway I'm using dolphin HD, cleanup is a 'must be done' in order to make this ROM as fast as possible. So, I'm off to 'work' and if someone has any suggestions then don't be shy and post it!

Regarding sync with the big G, i'll try to update files and to install a brand new Market app and if we cross fingers it will do the trick!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] JDfense:
