Hi,
Now that I have been able to get Vegacomb on my Vega im very chuffed with myself lol and want to keep making this Tablet better!
I have at the moment installed this -- [ROM] VegaComb BETA 1.7
Is this one any better?
[ROM] [3.2] Vegacomb 3.2 Build 8.1
What are the main differences?
And what is this one all about?
[NIGHTLY][ROM][GRJ22] CyanogenMod 7
I have read through them but as im still learning im getting a bit lost as to what is better and what the main differences are...
Any help would be great guys.
Thanks
The main differences are the android versions that they are based on:
CyanogenMod 7 = Android 2.3
VegaComb beta 1.7 = Android 3.0
VegaComb 3.2 build 81 = Android 3.2
The VegaComb beta 1.7 has now been replaced by the Vegacomb 3.2 Build 8.1 so you will probably want to upgrade to that version.
Nice one mate, thats exactly what I wanted, a nice and simple reasoning to change!!
To change to the newer one then, do I do this in the same way I got beta 1.7 on it then?
Thanks again for your help mate.

For VegaComb 3.2 build 8.1 you need to follow a certain install path.
First, install this: http://tabletroms.com/forums/vega-r...ddedstock_1-10-v2-updated-stock-rom-base.html
Then once it is booted go in to recovery via the recovery app and then wipe user/cache/dalvik and then install the ROM below via clockworkmod > install update from sdcard.

This is my version 11 kernel specifically build only for Bootloader 1.2. Just for you information. Bootloader 1.2 allows us to flash adam ROMS etc...This should also work for zpad. So if you updated to 1.2 bootloader and would want to go back to your old rom (Vegan, TNT, Clemsyn+Caulkin combo) all you have to do is flash the ROM and then flash the kernel and you should be good to go. Here is the link.

Clemsyn,
I appreciate all you and Roebeet's work on bringing HC to the gTab. I installed BOS a2.3 Saturday and your version 11 kernel Sunday. This morning I install BOS a2.4 and reinstalled your version 11 kernel. Each time I look at the Kernel Version it says 2.6.32.9-clemsyn-g568f750-dirty. Am I doing something wrong or have you been too busy to update the version number?
Regards,
Daris

That is right, but if you use BOS a2.4, there is no need to flash my kernel since it is already in the ROM
Good to know. Thanks! I am looking foward to future updates.

can the hc kernel be overclocked and if so how? set CPU will only clock to 1000.

Using bottleofsmoke with your kernel now, great job.
forum search is down.
May I know where to get rndis_host modules for the kernel, want to use usb tethering.
I'm wondering what for this 1.2 Ginger kernel for since I cannot find any Ginger ROM using 1.2 boot loader. Anybody can make use of this clemsyn kernel for Ginger?

its postulated that you can restore a backup of a 1.1 ROM while using the 1.2 BL and then flash the 1.2 kernel in order to get the ROM working. This needs to be tested.
I got stuck myself running the CM7 2.3.4 nightlies.

That is the right process in which you can restore run 1.1 ROM, and then flash it with Clemsyn's or Pershoot's NEWBL kernel.

No go for me
I have BL 1.2 which I got earlier by flashing stock 4349 and update to HC BoS
HC BoS has already CWM 3.028
I cannot update any 1.1 Ginger ROM (Tried Vegan, Vanilla, Harmony) using CWM 3.028
The error message :

i just turned on my new g-tabler for the first time. it wants to update from 3551 to 3991, would that put me on 1.2 ? or doeso only the 4xxx update move to 1.2?
Also, i read 1.2 is locked and does not allow custom kernels, this seems to be a custom kernel for 1.2, so was that info proven wrong? the thread is locked so i cant ask there
i am looking for stability and full hw accel (and something actively developed) can someone suggest a rom?
I do part-time android developer, you can see my apps/projects in my sig, I may see how I can contribute to the g-tablet now that I have one
thanks!

I think 3991 using 1.2 boot loader
To make easier update, see roebet honeycomb thread
You will find everything there for upgrading to 1.2 BL
I suggest to use 1.2 based ROM since more upcoming ROM such as honeycomb will use 1.2 BL
Lot of people say calkulin+clemsyn combo 6 is fast stable ROM
Btw, if you know some android! programming, maybe you can
work on Bluetooth DUN dial up client application.
Gtab only has wifi, meaning when travelling and can't get wifi, it's cripple
There is solution already with android phone to have wifi tethering.
But for people don't have android phone, Bluetooth dun tethering will be better
choice since most of smartphone have Bluetooth DUN capability.
I think this what lot of people missing now in gtab.
I have study a bit and find out in fact android git already implement Bluetooth dun
functionality. However missing DUN dialer application.
Only Archos makes their own DUN shipped with Archos 70 series
Clem is it possible to get a 1.6 oc version of this for 1.2 honeycomb? I had my tab up to 1.6 on 3.1.4 enhancement and was stable and flying. Like to push it as far as I can.
The link to the rapidshare download for Gingerbread doesn't seem to be working. Is there an alternative place to pick it up?

I am also having issue dloading keeps dloading a html file both from here and SlateDroid. Tried skyfire as well, no good. Would really like to see a 1.6 one.
Hey Clemsyn,
Now that rayman has a mostly working 2.6.36 kernel for Adam and they are close to having useful honeycomb roms that run on it, including full hardware acceleration, is there any hope that you'll get in to his git and make a gtab kernel out of it?
I did try booting a boot.img that rayman gave me, and then also the ic1.zip which is a full test rom, but nothing gets past the Viewsonic birds. He has some ideas, and knows changes need to be made for Gtab. It would be great if you could get involved.

Hi All,
I am a new A500 owner and a long time Viewsonic G Tablet owner; I know why I put a Custom Rom on the G Tablet (Stock Rom Sucked and VS dropped support). However after playing with my new A500 for the last week I really can see no reason so far to put a custom rom on this tablet.
The stock rom rooted and a few extras added/fixed like...
GPS Fix
NTFS Mount
Rooted
CWM Added
have really made this a very stable and very effective rom. I have been reading through the forum and I see a significant number of custom roms out there. I am sure they are there for a reason however for the life of me I can not determine why I would want to install any of them. I do also understand that I am coming late to the game on this tablet as I am sure these were probably developed to fix deficiencies in the stock rom when the tablet was first released.
So can someone explain to me why I would want to switch to a custom rom today given the stability and fixes available for the stock rom?
This is not meant to be a dig on any individual, group or any dev of these roms; I know these folks do an outstanding job and I appreciate every single one of them. However for someone new to this tablet it would be great to know what makes the custom roms better than what I already have with the stock/fixed rom I am running. I am currently running;
Android Version: 3.1
Kernel Version: 2.6.36.3
Build Number: Acer_A500_4.010.11_COM_GEN2
This is a sincere question and I would appreciate not getting flamed or bashed for asking. This is in the Q&A section so I am hoping this is the right place to get the answers I am seeking.
" The only way to learn is to ask... so I am asking "
To me I think everyone installs custom roms for all diffrent reasons. Each rom has its own benefits and restrictions. I have tried a few and always go back to stock.
Good luck and flash with great Caution

Hi Erica Renee,
Thank you for the quick reply... I was just not sure if there was a relevant issue that would persuade me to move from my stock rom to a custom one. I very much appreciate your response!!!
Rick
I'm coming from a Viewsonic Gtablet, and with the gtablet a custom rom was a must, here with the iconia I don't see any advantage to use a custom rom, Android 3.1 has everything I wanted. I only rooted it for ad-hoc support, but barely I use the ad-hoc, is only for emergencies, besides that, even rooting is not really necessary. Android OS backups all application settings, so each time I uninstall and reinstall an application, my former settings are there.
Just enjoy your Iconia
Frankly, I haven't felt the need to flash a custom ROM to the A500. I did root it to be able to use certain apps.
I have tried a variety of ROMs and kernels on my HTC EVO 4G, but that's because stock Froyo and even stock Gingerbread is boring. I think stock Honeycomb looks and performs great. It makes me really look forward to Icecream Sandwich.
I did add ADWLauncher to my A500, so maybe that's another reason why I haven't felt the need to flash a custom ROM.
i find myself in the same boat...
Running stock 3.1, rooted, cwm running - quite happy.
If you want to take it a step further, install Richardtrip's custom kernal and SetCPU and you will be amazed.

Hi entropy.of.avarice,
Thank you for the feedback, it is truly appreciated! I would not mind installing the new kernel as long as I knew for sure it would not break all that works well on my tablet right now.
Still on stock since I got mine - though I have since rooted - I'm not really making any use of it, only for file permissions and dropping boot animations onto the folder directly rather than through ADB.
I shopped around some of the ROM's floating around here and other that a few of the Touchwiz UI functions from Galaxy, [I don't even think it's supported or still available right now] there's nothing out there that would add to my experience in any appreciable way to risk going through all that [and back again] when I want to.
Stock is stable, runs smooth and fast and is supported if something ****s up and that is all I need - my life doesn't live and breath by the tablet so it's perfect for what I need it to be and what I need it to do.
I am using self-cooked official honeycomb 3.2 ROM (rooted, ad-hoc fix, etc)
with self-compiled 3.2 kernel, OC and apply different kind of fixes & patches.
Installing custom ROM & kernel is the act of tailor making your own OS.
It is why android is so attractive and additive.
Whay a non-stock ROM?
There are about as many answers to this as there are ROMs.
I have CWM / Recovery / Taboonay 2.0 w/ richardtrip's OC-able kernel (oc'd to 15000) and the tablet is Super Snappy! It has ad hoc support for tethering to my phone via WiFi, no random wake ups, Netflix with no broken cameras, Good GPS lock (after a bit of futzing...)
I was originally just gonna put 3.2 on there to experiment with and flash back after playing with it, but I got REALLY lucky. Did a FULL CWM backup and just flashed the ROM & Kernel over my existing ROM without wiping and...it just worked without me having to redo everything. So I just kept going..
I'd say at this point on the tablet no one REALLY needs 3.2, but a few of the modded kernels out there fix a number of sore spots that I wish ACER would just take care of...
I love our DEVS!
So...Up to you! But I currently LOVE taboonay 2.0 and the RT kernel...No issues at all for me...
(p.s. I still have two preceding backups of a couple of states of working 3.1 on my SD card that are 3 weeks apart that function wonderfully Just In Case! so, yeah..nothing really to lose by playing and testing...)

I rooted to gain performance. Taboonay and Richards kernel have given me a huge performance increase, no more lag.

Don't change unless you don't have a life and you want to spend all your hours figuring out what is wrong, have tried them all and stock is less head ake.
Hi all,
My HD2 had upgraded from WM to android 2.2.
However, the system is unstable lately (it rebooted occasionally).
Thus, I wonder whether I can do another upgrade to either 2.3 or 4.0?
Could you suggest which version is more stable and functioning well?
Also the how-to?
Thx a lot.
Yes you can do an upgrade, have a good read first as these are custom ROM & bugs will be present, those 2.3.xx versions are pretty much stable nowadays but you can give ICS - different flavours - a try also. Go the the SD ROM thread & if your phone has MAGLDR all you have to do is put the ROM in SD & boot from there or try the link below
Thx for the suggestion.
Just another Q: Why to store image in the SD? Doesn't it slow down the boot up time?
What's the benefit on the other hand?
Much appreciated.
NexusHD2 series GB & ICS are very stable and fast ROMs.
I am now using an ICS one and I am very pleased
You can found guides about flashing in my signature.
If you`re interested only in Android you should choose a NAND version to avoid slowness.
You can upgrade to this rom, now it is stable enough, enjoy.

A few days ago I installed Ice Cream Sandwich on my HTC HD2 and here the info I have on my About phone.
model number: `nexus hd2
android version: 4.0.3
baseband version 15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14

ClockworkMod Recovery v1.3

I used to have American Android i think that is like Cyanogenmod OS? The main reason why I switched to ICS is to be able to boot my phone straight to Android without having to to turn it on to Windows OS, then do the CLRCAD, HARET process in the Android folder.
I was told to consult a ROM chef because I've been having issues with the ICS camera and I tried installing 2 different cameras just to see how they work, umfortunately they were all slow, crashes and freezing, poor resolution as well. Some issues also with the Facebook and Instagram apps.
I hope somebody can help me with these issues. Is there also another operating system that will enable my HTC HD2 to boot directly to Android but have the same launcher or have the same format as to how the launcher looks like. Can you recommend other cameras to install in order to have better functions and quality.
I hope to hear form you guys. Thanks!
yea the cameras are unstable in ics and jb, but useable sort of, but i dont have any answers to your question, ,

there are nand versions of earlier ones, too, there's a nand version of the rom you were already running, if you want. You dont have to go ics/jb, if you are comfortable with gb, there are plenty of very stable, fully working gingerbread roms for nand.
To be honest, even with the term NAND i have little or no knowledge, such terminologies. What can you recommend that I do if i wanna replace ICS OS? and be able to directly boot to Android?
thanks again...
one of the best camera/ video out there is from MIUI & Mokee bot have SD & NAND version. ICS & up still have some issues with our HD2

Hello guys.
Is possible to have android 4.0.4 on our tattoo?
I know that rallapag has made CynogenMod 9 and i saw wildfire has new version ported from lg p350.
Is it possible use something from that rom to improve rallapag version or maybe make some new version, and if there is possibility how can i help.
Thanks.
As mentioned previously by someone mainly arco68..there is no GPU on the Tattoo so there is no way...it is just too slow.
The EOL shall be on 2.3.7 on CyanogenMod 7...which is fast enough for daily use
