Link to other ROMs for Advent Vega Tablet - Vega General

Guys,
Looks like the folks at the Modaco Advent Vega tablet forum are also using the VeganTab version of the ROM for our Gtablets. Would any of the ROMs on their rom download page also work on our Gtablets?
Here is the link: http://android.modaco.com/content/a...6486/advent-vega-rom-software-updates-guides/
Anyone know if any of these Vega roms would work on the gtablet without modifications? Looks like they're also using the Vegan rom that the developers here made for the Gtablet.

I just tried Big Ideas ROM in our Gpad...It works but its all in chinese, have to set language to english and wifi is broken. Other than that everything seems to be fine. Had to build a boot.img though coz the included boot.img wont work.
UPDATE:
Figured out how to change language from Chinese to ENglish and did a wifi patch. Everything is functional so far. Will do further testing and might release Big Ideas ROM for our GPAD. BTW, its pretty snappy

This Big Ideas Rom dont even need a market fix.

Have been using the the Big-ideas variations since 1202 on my Zpad. Have had no issues with wifi, lag and market. What I did was NVFlash Big Ideas ROM then made a GAPPS update with update.script to delete all Chinese apps then pushed the Google apps. This has been working out quite well.
I guess what Rothnic proposed about using Big-ideas as a base then add Vegan stuffs is heading in the right direction.

Rom 1.06.05 (VEGA) is the base foundation for VEGAn beta 4/5, FYI. A lot of this is intermingled.
I do like that link, as they seem to update it frequently.

I love the file explorer in Big Ideas rom. Does anyone know what app that is?

I LOVE BIG IDEAS ROM!!! I'm building a Vanilla version and might upload it tomorrow after testing it

I'm confused... I thought that ZPad 3.0 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=853310) already *was* essentially the vanilla version of the Big Ideas ROM, with the Chinese language stuff stripped out.

Thanks my understanding, as well.

I would try update 3. Be careful it says use at you own risk! Not sure if they are any newer than what we already have. i was just curious. Try taking a quadrant score before and after, see if it makes a difference. I admire your courage

I gave it a try awhile back sadly the USB key button was not functional of course. Simply clicking the USB key button in iFileManager makes it much easier, even if the translation is sometimes appalling

I worked around that issue by just simply making my usb system file a favorite which then gave me a direct link.

Hi. I think you'll find a lot of support on XDA for building your own ROM and/or for theming. You've covered a lot of different areas in terms of what you want to do. I have a few recommendations.
1. Do a quick search, either here or in Google, on how to build Android ROMs. There's a lot of good information out there and some of it might resonate with you in terms of how they explain things. That said, if all you're doing is changing a few files around; files you already have, then you would simply add them to, or replace the existing ones from a ROM you like. Just be sure to connect with the developers of that ROM so you can give credit where credit is due. Or, you could start with the Stock ROM and do it that way. But, in either case, you would be essentially using WinZip or some similar app to build the .zip file as you'd like to see it.
2. Consider hooking up with one of the existing developers and start making contributions to their work. That would give you a chance to work with some of the best people who are already doing what you want to do. I think in that case, it wouldn't take too long for you to come up to speed on who they've approached things. Also, this helps you from making some novice mistakes that I'm sure they've made along the way.
Lastly, consider the "value add" of your ROM over those that are already available. If you build something and no one has heard of you and then they don't see your ROM as having anything better or different to offer, then people might not want to use it. For example, Team Whiskey has Obsidian. Then they released Onyx. However, Onyx was materially different than Obsidian in that they removed a lot of the TouchWiz based theming and T-Mobile applications. So, a lot of people saw value in that.
Anyway, good luck. I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun!
This thing sounds quite nice! Would you be interested in posting the 2.2.1 build you got your hands on and the GB KB with Vibration? I haven't seen either of those elsewhere.

First, google WINRAR and download it.
Then select all your files, right click and click ARCHIVE and then choose location, name, and wait until its done, and it'll be in a .zip.
Root Explorer is not a free app, so you may want to reconsider adding that as part of your ROM.

My Screens From Kyrillos' Rom v3.0 Kyrillos' ROM v3.0 Final Extreme Edition

Hi Successfully install of the room
and some screens for beginning
Enjoy
looks really good i'm gonna install it tonight. Just one question though, why is it in two parts for downloading?
Yup e bro...first hav to flash pda den after that the next one..
Sent from my GT-I5800 using XDA App
Installed succesfully, Best rom on Galaxy 3 today
did you guys use part 1 or part 2 of Kyrillos' 3.0 rom?

You have to download both, then you have to extract the files.
Right Click on the first Archive and unzip it.
Than you have one file, which you flash with Odin, using the one package option.

it's a volume archive... you have to uncompress one file and it will extract the content of both of the volumes. the uncompressed content it's only a *.tar file, and that is the one you need.
Ahh thanks I got it, installed it nicely
It's really quite beautiful haha
I installed it, too
It´s very fast. Whats your Quadrant result?
Great work kyrillos!
The rom is really great
JIT and Flash
when is JIT and flash 10.1 coming on our system? i mean i do understand our hardware doesnt support flash but JIT is possible right. why is samsung not releasing source code yet and if it has where is it? i do need JIT, will give immense boost to our speed!!
Kyrillos ROM v3.0 is really awesome.
I flashed it yesterday evening and I'm convinced that it is the best available custom ROM out there (everything works until now).
Solved, not kyrillos fault but mine. Thank you for your answer kyrillos.
I just found one little problem (which isn't a real big deal):
Notification-texts are still black. To give an example I used QuickSettings-notification and opened a white site in the background (screenshot attached).
Does everyone has this little problem or just me? Is there a way to manually change it?

[ROM] RusMod 1.19

RusMod 1.19.
Added:
CBW kernel and some build.prop changes.
This is mod for russian users(was so.. unitl now)
Now i wish to give it to you.
About it:
Well, i can copy page from Khal's rom and say - it all there.
If we get something here, that gets to RusMod.
It's fully stock(i hope so, cause we have so many changes... =))
How to install it:
If your rom based on Dexter rom than there is a chance that you will only need
wipe cache and dalvik-cache.
If not - you should wipe all data.
After restoring rom from nandroid apply patch, because russian version of settings.apk and phone.apk have some changes for russian users.
Well, that's all.. i think =)

BTW: i recommend to use software from Go Dev Team like Go Launcher Ex, Go SmS Pro and e.t.c. It really good and opensource =)
Much appreciated... will try out shortly
Btw, is there gingerbread theme for this ROM? If so, where can I get it? Thx
Nope, gingerbread theme not there.
After framework upgrade in RM 1.16 themes are in reworking.
Okay install success... gonna test out for a bit and see how it is. Btw you have lightXt pre-installed over this: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.coreaaosi.afroid&feature=search_result which has more features, better look and a widget... (and doesn't require root)
Also, I switched language to English but there's something in my notification bar as ongoing but I have no idea what it is. That's in russian and it has an American flag next to it in the status bar and clicking on it takes me to some settings that's also Russian... any idea what that is?

As long as the framework-res folder structure matches Moize7Ae's MM patch it should work. You could also try ZipThemer.

RM uses Mioze7Ae's MM patch so it should work =)
Afaik there is some program with name metamorth.. it's changes phone theme...
Metamorph works "live" on the phone & when it themes framework-res it will reboot the phone & with owq's morph I think you have to run through MM a second time to get the white clock color. ZipThemer takes the morph & builds an update.zip (& an undo.zip for when things go wrong). So you create the update.zip (I use HTC Edify Generic update script setting) make sure it is in the openrecovery/updates folder, boot into OC & apply the update.

[DEV/LEAK] Acer Iconia Tab A200

Here are some updates files from the Acer Iconia Tab A200 (Honeycomb 3.2.1), that seems to be a "low-cost" A500.
All files can be found here : http://vache-android.com/v1/index.php?site=files&cat=38
It's including a new Acer Ring app and lockscreen shortcuts.
It also have a new Acer Iconia Tab bootanimation.
Screenshots :
What it does not have :
-Rear Camera
-Dolby Mobile (or it's not active atm)
-Maybe other things i didn't see.
ROM based on A200 system by fguy (only for test purpose)
New lockscreen looks very nice!
Yep, there's also a shortcut to take screenshot, really usefull, and to open the app drawer. That's a nice idea from Acer.
Yay something new!
But alas, Android 4 is on the horizon. And we all know how Acer loves to update!

With the screenshot, isn't that not included in Android (unless rooted?) or implemented to use without root - I think ICS is the first one with native screenshot included?

Ah okay, my bad, didn't think they had it.
acer did good job!
A200 is 3.2.1,and A500 is only 3.2?
Is this ROM in development?
How is it functioning so far?
It does not have back camera as in the a200 does not have one / and / or this ROM does not have it?
Does anyone have a list of bugs in this ROM?
I would love to test when I get home, want to know if it's worth flashing!
PS Love the lockscreen!
Damn, I get to the Acer logo, and nothing. Just sits there.
Without having checked, I'd guess that most "H/W not working" problems are simply missing drivers (i. e. we'll have to wait for Acer to fix them or reverse-engineer existing ones -- which I'm not going to try as it tends to be one huge pain in the ___). Other than that, I guess this ROM is fairly stable with minor glitches in the UI and framework (most leaks are, I haven't tried this one).

The stuff that doesnt work seems to be because the a200 doesnt have it, ie the a200 has no rear facing camera so this rom has no rear facing camera. In a sense its missing, but for what it is the rom functions fully. I'm actually shocked to see this thread, i didnt know this was posted on XDA and found it elsewhere about a week ago and have been using it as my daily not realizing it was a leaked rom (rookie mistake not checking the thread date for the other forum that had it) and I actually like how smooth it is and feel like its just as stable as the stock a500 rom. Then again, I dont extensively push my tablet to the limit, I do my budget/check book, play around online and occasionally hook up a ps3 controller and play some SNES so maybe someone else should comment on the stability of the rom. Only problem I can find is I hear the latest market is 3.4.4 and this rom seems stuck on 1.1.0 and I cant figure out how to get the market all the other roms had(it has the market I had when I pulled this thing out of the box, not the one that came when I updated).

ICS AOKP ROM for the u8800

This is an AOKP ROM for the u8800. It is ported from Huawei Honor B977 4.0.3. I'd like to know if anyone else has tried this and what they think. It's a chinese rom from the anzhi forums (original thread)
I flashed this ROM just now ( thanks fjsferreira for the mirror), this is my feedback:
- Fast, smooth (on par with Aurora).
- Wifi, mobile data, bluetooth, and the like work.
- No gapps, Play Store, camera, browser...(you pretty much have to install everything yourself).
- No strip unicode in the Mms.apk.
- Popup notification support in the Mms.apk.
- Cool AOKP tweaks (naturally...).
- No theme-chooser (meaning you'll have to stick with the mix of Touchwiz 5, ICS and lots of tranparency that is the UI).
- Long pressing the Home key doesn't show the multi-tasking interface and doesn't take you to the Homescreen.
- The SEARCH key is set to turn off the screen (to revert it to its normal function (searching!), check this post).
- I'll add more feedback information as more people try it and report.

I found his AOKP ROM for our u8800, I'm about to try it, and when I do I'll post some feedback here. Also, I'd like to know if anyone else has tried this and what they think. It's a chinese rom from the anzhi forums (original thread)

Btw, as soon as I finish downloading I'll put it up on mediafire or dropbox, but if someone else already has it feel free to post a link.

Make sure the system folder fits in your system partition. I think you need to chacge the partitions in order to flash this, but I'm not sure. Our phone's default system partition is 210 mb
Has anyone tried it? Or have mirror?
I would love to give a try, but download time shows me 18 hours...
I have tried the previous ver actually..... Partition is a must, otherwise phone wont pass Huawei logo. Its ported from Huawei Honor ...every thing works well but Home key does not work..... But be aware some time it happens that you cant return to stock partition and you wont be able to Flash official 2.3 or Froyo ROM back.

I haven't tried that way, you can try once.... All 4.0 official ROM designed for U8800 PRO also officially they have made .app file for changing the partition to install ICS so i doubt it will work.

Actually this version is much smaller (109MB) than the previous (180MB), so it may not need re-partitioning. It has a ".UP" suffix so maybe it is an update flashable only and you need the previous installed, but I can't know since I cannot download it. It just goes soooooo slowwww....
camera not working

I know, right? I left the computer on and went to the beach but when I came back the file only had 86mb out of the 109mb...I'll have to try again tomorrow, since it will probably take some 4 hours to download.

If you guys use something to stabilize the download, like free download manager, speed is always above 800 KB/s (I've just finished my download, took less than 3mins)

EDIT: anyway, here it is

(I didn't try this ROM yet, and probably won't, Aurora is completely stable for me right now)
Well, just went ahead and tried the ROM. From my 10 minutes playing with it, everything seems to work, wifi, mobile data, bluetooth and camera (camera isn't included by default, you have to install one).
Also, no market by default, you have to manually edit the zip file and include the market apk in it.
Sadly I had to uninstall it after 10 mins because, and I'm seeing this more and more, the dev completely screwed up the UI... it's simply horrible, it's not default AOKP at all... He made a complete mess with icons from samsung, an horrible background in every app, horrible popups and menus, etc... I didn't like that at all. I didn't even took the time to create screenshots, I'm sorry, because it was burning my eyes...
There are some stuff completely in chinese, in the ROM control area of the settings, but overall, you can choose any language that Android includes. Note, while the theme of the UI isn't AOKP, the ROM itself is, with the usual settings AOKP provides,
Performance wise, I saw no difference than with aurora...

You can include this too... Its ported from Huawei Honor 4.0 977 ver ROM and home key doesn't show recent apps opened and doesn't take you to home either.

Thanks. I reverted to the good old .32 kernel yesterday, so I won't be testing this one for now. However, I'll still update the OP with the links to the latest version and the features/bugs list.
