NO LONGER SUPPORTED
ODIN 1 CLICK TO STOCK JF6 BEFORE FLASHING 2.0[/B
Added updated flashable zip to bottom of post which includes some theme updates, apk updates and themes, and some window animations. This post will be hopefully be updated tomorrow with a newer version, and this clockwork flashable .zip should hold off those who waiting on the rom update.
first boot will take a bit.
This is a brand new rom ive been working on for the last few days. Based on newest i9000 froyo release UGJK3 (build date 11/18) and tweaked from there.
-SetiroN 1.5 kernel -user configurable OC up to 1460/default is 1200(go to 1400's at your own risk
-haptic feedback works on ALL buttons
-OC/UV support-voltage control app installed to /data/app
-BLN added and required lights.so lib added to /data/app
-apps and framework deodexed and optimized
-zipaligned
-rooted, busybox and sqlite included
-extended power controls(reboot, recovery, download)
-Captivate dialer, camera, etc. (no video chat references)
-Completely themed with pieces from all of my favorite themes(pics of theme seen HERE
-Fixed build.prop so protected apps can be seen on the market
-Big APN file for instant inernet/mms access
-ad-blocking
-AOSP themed lockscreen
-HSUPA enabled -comes with UGJK3 modem(no need to do anything crazy to get 850 working-this modem works as is)
-this rom will not switch back and forth between H and 3g, the symbol should stay on 3g even if hsupa is enabled and working
-comes with SWYPE, dark Droid X multitouch keyboard, and samsung keyboard
-Launcher Pro and TWlauncher included in /system/app
it seems like Samsung took some advice from gtg with the twlauncher(never seen the stock launcher this fast or smooth)
-removed some junk apps
-added
voltage control 2.0
cyanogen MMS (switch background color-white/black)
updated maps and youtube
flash player will auto-install
Starting with v3.0, d1g1talphyre will be helping with all future versions of the rom. Im going to be extremely busy is in the upcoming weeks so this will help me get 3.0 out faster to you guys.
3.0 changelog-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9876005&postcount=597
3.0.1-only difference is the power menu fix. there is a .zip for those who have 3.0 already around page 76 or so.
here is a link to a circle batt mod made by d1g1talphyre. this framework-res.apk will only change the circle batt and thats it. rest of the theme is the same.

When you apply your lagfix, choose option one when prompted "backup AND restore"
Install Instructions:
as always, its best to flash to stock JF6 with the odin one click downloader.
copy this rom to your internal sd card, and after flashing stock. flash this through Clockwork Recovery. thats it. no need to do anything with the jg8 modem or anything like that.
on first flash, all=ext4 is enabled by default-if you want to use something else, select go back to recovery then go to the lagfix options and enable whatever you want. when your prompted with the options about backing up, i suggest choosing option 1. this will do a backup and restore so you will not lose any apps(the other options you will lose the apps in /data)

Been looking forward to this.
Thanks, I'll try it tonight.

i hadn't planned on it, but it looks like i'll be flashing today
sweet! downloading and flashing @ work, excited to test.
I couldnt apply lag fix right away had to reboot first ... BUT it did tell me my configs changed ???? ... I chose option 1 and noticed it set up like this
ext4
rfs
ext4
false
false
false
false
?????
booting up was about 2 minutes on android logo
reboot to recovery then fix it to no rfs advanced ... ( all jfs )
looking good I previously dropped this rom because of modem giving me issue
will set my stuff and report back if needed .
PS why is the Fm app always in your rom ? do you hope it will work at one point ?
looks great yay launcher pro included
you few that download already, here is a better videoplayer.apk. it doesnt fix the problem, but at least youll be able to view your recorded videos from /sdcard-dcim-camera. still looking at problem and trying to find a fix.
from this point on this video player is included with the rom.(reuploaded)

some people have said if that app is removed it can cause problems. if you dont like it, remove it from /system/app.
first boot will take a while as it zipaligns and deodexes.
and btw this rom has nothing in common with my other di11is darkyy rom except my theme. this is my own base.
Ive been running your darky rom 2.0.1 for a day with the jk3 modem. Downloading now to check out the CM mms. I hope its the one with the notification vibration types like multiple long.

thx bro. was planning on reflashing myself to verify.
My home button didnt work either, not sure about lock screen. Flashing back to stock now.
My home button worked fine. hmmm, also I can confirm the video player.apk in the first post for us couple who downloaded early is letting me play video. But just as stated, can only open it from file manager to view.
great rom so far, its fast. Yes, I did run benchmarks, not that they really matter anymore. can notice the difference in speed when deleting widgets, open anything. It screams, props di11igaf, awesomely quick rom.

just downloaded my own file, reflashed to stock put the downloaded file on my sd and flashed again with no probs. first thing i did though was apply lagfix and when the backup and restore options pop up make sure you choose the first option to backup and restore all data.
let me know if you do reflash this if you have the same problem.

preciate it, will try later. problem probably because i apply lagfix "without backup and restore."
ahh ya i bet thats why. not sure why it really would matter(since the problem your describing would be an android.policy.jar problem) but im gonna try it that way and see if it makes a difference. thats the only thing different that we did though.
also i think if you apply the lagfix that way, any apps in the rom that are in /data/app by default will not be restored-at least this has happened to me in the past and why now i always do a backup and restore.
I did a yes without backup and restore, and the home button ain't workin.
Hey Guys,
Being a PC overclocker I felt like a fish out of water when it comes to overclocking a phone
I recently got a HTC Wildfire and found out how to root it and flashed my own ROM, Kenral etc. (with some difficulties)
So I downloaded SetCPU and started OC'ing. Being a PC overclocker I followed the logic of set speed and run stability test.
So I slowly started upping the max speed and then stress testing for 20 min odd. I just kept on upping the speed until I got to the limit of SetCPU (768Mhz). Where to from now?
I have not changed the minimum speed because I have read that it can make your phone rather unresponsive.
Is it possible to go above 768Mhz or will I damage the phone or have to up voltage?
I ran linpak and at 768Mhz I got just under 3 MFLOPS. Is that good or bad or what?
Thanks in advance guys
Mikrouwel
768 is the safe limit, you'll need to make a kernal that will allow the processor to go further, 3mflops is good on a sense ROM but on an AOSP ROM you will get over 5 easily. Why do you want to go over 768 anyway?
What is the difference between sense and AOSP ROM? If it is just the sense feture then I dont mind changing ROMS. (Dont use sensce)
Also what is Cyanogenmod 7 RC1? Is it the same os CM7? Seem alot of people talking but dont now what it is?
Thanks
Mikrouwel
AOSP -> Android Open Source Project. It is vanilla Android, without Sense. So Yes, your assessment is correct. It is just the Sense feature.
Cyanogenmod 7 = CM7. Just a short way of writing it.
Hi There
Is Cyanogenmod 7 a ROM?
Also is Android Open Source Project ROM too or a app?
Sorry kinda confussed
Also what is Clockworkmod Recovery? Does it have something to do with ROM Manager?
Thanks
Mikrouwel
1: Yes, CM7 is a ROM
2: AOSP Official Page: http://source.android.com/
3: Recovery Images are found whenever you boot into Recovery. Example: All that you see like Clear Cache, Install ZIP from SDC etc. are part of a recovery. ROM Manager is a standalone app and is not related to Recovery, although, it can help update the recovery since the developer of Clockworkmod Recovery and ROM Manager are the same.
Technical Definition of Recovery: (Sourced from Turkeys Ultimate Guide Glossary)
The recovery partition is a boot-mode for your phone that allows you to wipe your settings from the #data partition of the phone (a hard wipe), or perform an update using an update.zip file on the root of the microSD card. It is common (although not necessary) to flash a patched Recovery image, such as Amon RA's one. This allows you to run Nandroid backup from the device, and flash modifications, such as update.zip files to the device, essentially becoming a means to install sotware to the device. Recovery mode is separate from 'normal' mode, and can be entered by holding down home whilst turning the phone on.
Oh, you should probably go through Turkeys guide and glossary yourself. It should help a lot.Thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=824396
Glossary : http://bit.ly/9HtICk
Many thanks Guys,
ATM I am using this ROM with this kernal. Were can I download CM& and will the notiable differences be between the one im using and CM7?
Also what is New Nightly? (You have #13 next to yours?)
Thanks alot guys
Mikrouwel
CM7 can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=918072
Or, the latest, i.e. RC2 can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=957140
Nightlies are automated builds created by the Build bot. If you check the first link I posted, in that post's download link, you will find new nightlies everyday. Nightlies implement minor code changes, and, are experimental releases. They may add new features (eg: Nightly #11 implemented Android 2.3.3, #13 implemented FM Radio etc.), but may also add new bugs sometime.
As for differences, one cant say for sure, since ROM preference is a personal choice. Try it, if it suits you, use it, else, switch back.
Hi There,
I am going to try CM7.
IS the RC2 stable and if so is it more or less stable than RC1?
Also if I just go into recovery and flash will I have to flash nightlys or not?
If I am not mistaken it runs 2.3 and I thought that there were many features that didnt work on 2.3? (Gingerbread)
Also what kernal do you recommend I should use on CM7 that will let me got 768+?
Many many thanks guys for all the help
Oh yes and what app do I use if I want to keep all my apps and contacts and stuff like that? I used titanium backup last time and only got like half the stuff back?
Thanks Guys
Mikrouwel
* RC2 is stable for me. No issues so far, although camera sound bug is still there - If you take some pics using flash, phone loses all sound and you have to reboot.
* After RC2, it is upto you whether you want to flash nightlies or not. There is no compulsion.
* Can you list some features that dont work on 2.3? Personally, I cant find anything amiss over 2.1 / 2.2
* CM7 comes by default with an overclocked kernel, which will allow OC to 768. Overclocking beyond 768 is not possible since that is the safe limit for the Wildfire's CPU. Because it is overclocked by default, if you get a bootloop, flash HCDR.Kernel v4.1 after flashing CM7. This will restore stock clocks, but, still allowing OC using an app like SetCPU
* Apps can be backed up using Ti backup / Mybackup Pro etc. Contacts can be backed up by going to Contacts > Export > To SD Card. Then, after flashing, again going to Contacts > Import > From SD Card, and select the VCF File. SMS'es can be backed up by using the free SMS Backup App from the market.
MOD EDIT: AS WE ARE REORGANIZING THE GTABLET FORUM - ALL ROMS/KERNELS/ETC WILL HAVE THEIR Q&A POSTS MOVED TO THE Q&A SECTION.
THE Q&A LOCATION FOR THIS ROM IS HERE
Thanks.
---------------------------------------
STANDARD DISCLAIMER: USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. By running this firmware mod, you agree that there is the possibility that you may brick your device and neither myself, XDA nor Viewsonic are responsible for supporting you if that occurs. In this case, it is required that you learn and setup nvflash prior to running this mod.
This is a port of AdamComb with pershoot kernel and some tweak for performance and usability. Thanks all the greatest Adam, Vegan, Gtab devs that make this rom possible.
Install instruction:
1. Make sure the version of your bootloader and download the corresponding rom
2. I guess most of you should already be in CWM, but if you are not. update the recovery to CWM first. Stock recovery might work but you need to do some work and CWM is much better anyway.
3. Wipe data / Factory reset. It might work well, but you will most likely have problems without doing this.
4. Using the "install from sdcard" to install and enjoy.
Features: Very fast and stable
For AdamComb features, check its original post at tabletroms.
1. Overclocked by default, max frequesy adjusted by battery level.
-- you could use setcpu to adjust the min, max frequency. The build-in script for cpu management respect the setting from setcpu
2. Tweaked internal storage & SD card read speeds
3. Annoying ads in programs are blocked
4. Calkulin's battery saving script
5. data2loop works super well
6. pre-load some useful modules at boot time, e.g. cifs, ntfs, utf8, tun.
Known Issues:
1. Anything related to hardware acceleration
2. Stock Camera App does not work.

[BL1.2]
http://dev-host.org/k0zcozlozwgi/GtabComb_b3.3_bl1.2.zip
changelog:
1. update to pershoot 26.32.43 kernel. As already confirmed by some users, this version runs faster and hopefully it also resolve the BT tether issue
2. fix the "import" bug in init.rc.
3. change the label of sdcard and mircosd to be the same as in stock version. So far I have not got any issue and it does fix the "install unsuccessful" problem for some app.
4. remove some libs that does not use in gtab to free up some space. now all the libs in pershoot kernel are available in this rom. just edit the /system/etc/init.d/05modules to add your desired lib in the modules string.
5. Thanks all you guys for testing this and digging into issues. This help me a lot to resolve some issues here. It is the effort from all of us that make this rom better and better.

link: http://www.mediafire.com/?sy8oxpcrdufr4e3
[BL1.2]
link: http://www.mediafire.com/?xqoo08e1m49no1d
changelog:
1. battery life improved a lot
2. overall system performance improvement.
3. partially fixed bluetooth. Not sure how much it works (pulling some of bluetooth libs from flashback)
4. remove street and office app. put back camera app (it still fc, put it here so that some power user could play on it to see if we could find a fix here)
5. fix an issue that usb connect and debug notification does not disappear when the usb is disconnected (well, it still do not work if the usb is disconnected when the system is on sleep)
6. code reorganization and clean up. make it easier for some power user to change settings and plug in scripts without the need to unpack/repack boot.img. Hopefully we could have more power user to play with the system and further improved this rom.
7. change the cpu governor to respect on cpumaster, so you can use both setcpu or cpumaster to adjust the voltage if you really do not like the cpu managed by the buildin script.
8 change bootanimation (pulling from the bootanimation collection by thinkdevoid @tabletroms)
Again, back up and wipe data and factory reset (at least wipe dalvik cache) if you want a smooth experience. Almost all unexpected FCs are related to NOT wiping data

alpha 1.6 (based on BOS_a6.0)
Note: users in other roms have mix experience on data2loop. It works very well for me, but I do not know how it will work for you. If it works well, you should expect data intesive apps (e.g. email, galary, market, etc) load much faster. If you do not know what data2loop is and its potential risk, do not flash a1.6.2. a1.6.1 already perform very well. you should wipe user data/factory reset before flashing a1.6.2 if you decide to try it.
--a1.6.2 (ext2 data2loop enabled. Very fast. Quardrant score: 3923)

Just flashed this last night and had about 2 hours with it (not a lot of time at all but) I love it!!! It's my first Honeycomb ROM. Great so far... what a learning curve HC is? Just weird but I am getting the hang of it. Thanks all for your hard work!
pyro6128 said:
Loving the rom so far. Really great job, one question though. Is there a way to make it so pressing the home button takes me to the main screen instead of to the large clock? I'm probably just messing an easy setting or something, but I can't seem to find it.
Edit: For anyone interested, unless there is another way that I'm aware of, you can fix this by using titanium backup to freeze the clock in the backup/restore menu. This breaks the alarm clock though. Hope that helps, maybe someone else will have a better solution

Could you explain a bit more what is your issue?
What you mean by "large clock"?
I am on 1.6.2 and anytime I press home button I end on home screen. :-O
First HC rom here too, really nice interface improvements. Thanks to the devs for giving us this!
Is it just me, or is anyone else "missing" the menu bar at the bottom of the home screen with home, menu, back etc keys?
EDIT: Issue was resolved by wiping and reinstalling. Think it might have been caused because I launched VLT Launcher first time I booted up HC and not the default launcher.
hey guys, i just upgraded to this from vegan 5.1.1 and so far im liking it! Its worked fairly well for my games so far including plants vs zombies keep up the great work!

When i would press home either on my gtab or on the screen, the screen would change to a large clock. If you've ever seen the desk clock feature on a droid (like when its in the dock), thats what it looked like.
I had the previous BOS version from this thread of 6/24 (?) and it ran fine. I downloaded 1.62 and it would not run - it would not go past lock screen. 1.61 did the same thing. Did full wipe before and after install, and downloaded both versions again and after install the same thing happened. I am now downloading 1.52 and will try that one.

I just updated from a1.5 to a1.6 and found out that ad-hoc networks are not supported (I get error 82). Rebooted many times but still doesn't work. This is a great problem because I cannot use wifi tethering from my android phone therefore cannot go online!!! Any help?????
Same here as Aldo.Caruso - no adhoc wifi on 1.6.1
Sent from my Droid using XDA App
I noticed this rom doesn't have google talk installed. I pulled the honeycomb gtalk apk from bottle of smoke. So far it seems to work without issue. I have it attached here, just download and install like you would any other apk.
Good so far
Awsome ROM, only one problem so far for me. Facebook for Android 1.6 keeps saying I don't have a connection. While facebook with the browser works fine.
is anyone else having problems playing youtube videos (with in the youtube app) in HD? i can only play them in sd (very grainy in the large tablet screen)
But other then that excellent rom - thanks to all that are involved.

Sorry, I had never seen that thing you are talking about. Picture will help here. But if you have such an app installed, go to application management in settings and check whether it is not marked as default app for home. If yes, reset that setting.

I decided to go back to alpha1.5 because lack of ad-hoc network support is too much an issue considering that Gtab is wifi only and tethering to my android phone is the only way to go online!!!
Anyway I just read this on the Slatedroid forum:
http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/18755-ad-hoc-network/
This file and method are meant for the Iconia Tab but I posted a question asking if it could work also on other tablets. Will let you know.
Could someone smarter then me try to explain why the heck you need such weird thing like ad-hoc wifi :-O
I know that Google disabled some useful things in Android, but I am sure ad-hoc was not disabled, it was simply ommited as completely obsolete and useless way of connection.
Every modern WiFi chip can act as AP, so there is no reason to use ad-hoc. Is it possible to secure it? I am not sure, but I doubt it...
Anyway, I am using my other android phone for wifi tethering and there is definitely no need for ad-hoc for wifi tethering...
But maybe I am completely dumb. In that case, please educate me a bit...
issues with 1.6.2 on GTablet UPC300-2.2
really like it, very fast and looks great. i have a few questions:
1. the camera is not working at all.
2. i have no volume control at all, it is full or off no in between.
Any one else see tjis or have a solution to fix it???
Thanks
I just purchased an Elocity A7 and updated the firmware to 2.0134 and applied Dexter's Elocity 1.42 mod.
Everything seems to be working great, I can get to the marketplace etc. but for some reason none of the apps will go to the SD card that I have installed.
I can see the card mounted but when I go the the App to SD app the column to move to SD card (that I used in prior versions) is not on the screen.
Is this normal?, or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance for your replies.
Demi
Your procedure isn't correct, first you have to load dexter 1.41Rom then add the patch 1.42, you cannot put 1.42 ontop of the factory firmware...
Elocity did not include the option, so you cannot move apps with stock firmware...
you need the CyanogenMod released, then you get the option to do it.
Thank both of you for the prompt replies.
Should I reinstall the elocity software again, over the Dexter mod?
What does CyanogenMod mean, and how do I install? it.
Sorry, I'm not very technical.\

Original Post by Dexter_nlb
I played around with a version of the CyanogenMod7 for tegra2, and now its in a acceptable state, so you can test it too.
I have used the latest Atrix4G 2.3.4 + vega / optimus 2X to put this version together, and its based on the original elocityA7 kernel and includes modules for cifs,nfs,ext3 and ext4 support.
So although its a Android Gingerbread 2.3.5 base, kernel is still just 2.6.32.9 based, so cpu,memory and kernel related optimizations are not here.
CyanogenMod7 offers a lot of customizable features, full multilanguage and latest enhancements found for our android comparing to original stock a7 rom, you get alot more features.
Fixes in Version3 (Cyanogen7RC1ModA7-3)
- Youtube HD video fixed
- VolumeUP/VolumeDown assigned to sound&search buttons
- DSP Manager is now working, it is really to loud for internal speaker if you go full power.
- GoogleTalk app update + crash fix. (still no video working)
- USB_OTG app updated, so changes take effect immediately when you swith HOST/DEVICE mode (used to connect tablet to pc with usb-a2usb-a cable)
- Real 1080p video out with HDMI (not sure how it affect playback, it seeems just upscaled)
What is found not working right now:
- Camera photo & video recording (photo stopped when avi got enabled)
- rotation sensor is 90 wrong (in gameloft games)
- bluetooth
What is working
- Netflix runs out of the box on this one, as i made build.prop changes so it thinks its a Xoom.
- wifi networking
- sdcard , usb host/device and USB stick support.
- all features of CM7
- mkv/avi/wma/wmv hardware acc. video playback (almost seems like more avi is supported than before?)
Download http://dext3r.komodin.org/Elocity-A7/Cyanogen7RC1ModA7-3.zip

unzip the downloaded zip, and there is a zip inside named update.zip that needs to be extract and out on the root of your sd card
Thank You for the reply. It worked perfectly and now everything is up to date and working. I don't know how to press the thank you meter so here goes a double thank you...
How does the original question apply to the A7+?
I can't access card and I'm having memory issues... new thread has specifics
This is just an initial ROM for a project i'm starting with this device. This is the stock rom but cleaned up and tweaked a little. Removed all the junk from the rom and replaced the keyboards with Null Keyboard. Added a few apps for convenience. Keep an eye out, I will be updating frequently. Requests are welcome. Thanks for looking.

Please repost the ROM. When attempting to download it, this is what I get:
"Nothing Here
The file you're looking for has been deleted or moved."
Thanks!
As of now I'm using latest firmware 20131103.
I only use this device for Plex it's perfect for DTS, bluetooth audio/video is in perfect sync but MKV's with AC-3 stereo audio & video is out of sync big delay of some sort.
Anyone else experiencing this issue?
I can't try other ROMs because not sure which other ROMs can be flashed with this device. Any pointers or advice would be much appreciated.
Hello,
Just a curious question.
Does wireless display work on this ROM?
I have an CX-919 and flashed 4 different ROMS already (finless 15, 16b, kitkat, NZ something) and non off them work.
Wifi display is connected with my galaxy S4 or Asus ME302C tablet, but mirroring does not start.
It worked with my S4 one time with finless kitkat, but that was it.
I really want to get it working because i have all pictures etc. om my phone and tablet.
PS: if anyone reads this and has problems to get into flash mode, the solution is very simple.
Do not use the USB cable that comes with your stick.
Use an USB cable form your phone or tablet.
I use my Samsung USB cable and that works flawlesly, althoug the blue LED stays on (in opposite of what everyone says) after plugging it in the PC with the button held.
All flash tools i used see the stick everytime and no problems flashing whatsoever.
