Well that seems a little silly after reading this post.
Dear Augen Customers (GEN Nation),
Thank you for showing your support and interest in our GENTOUCH78 Tablet. We became aware of the technical difficulties over the past 24 hours, and we will be posting an update for a patch to the software at the following link: http://augen.helpserve.com/ under latest download files within the next 48 hours.

48 hour fix time? You only get that kind of a support from a custom rom dev.

Hopefully someone gets one with some dev skills or just is able to make a custom recovery. Once that happens it's on. I'm wondering if adw launcher can be installed on this thing

I also got one, there's a patch coming tomorrow for the market problem. I can't install apps with APK's in gmail either without a katcher.
It's a sweet device so far. it's resistive touch, I don't think you can turn up sensitivity but we'll see.
ES File Manager comes Pre Loaded.. you can add any app APK to the SD card. and use ES File Manager to install
Installing Quadrant, and some games right now.. I'll post back

I picked this up and I am going to be creating a dev thread on this. I am not an expert on this by any means but I did get it rooted, got Titanium Backup on it (had to install Download Crutch from my SD card than downloaded TB from an APK I found online), and got ADW on it. Runs OK, I don't like the resistive screen and I agree with others that this is a really rigged build on this device. Market issue for me too, can't wait for the update.
EDIT: Dev thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7409528#post7409528

How did you root? I'd love any info you can give. where's your thread
Edit: Quadrant got just below the Moto droid according to there results. it was around 300 or so if i remember right. it was just below the Droid. It got good and smooth FPS during the 3D tests. It has the Mali-200 GPU inside with a texture unit rate of 8 units.
Linpack it scored a 3.962 or something but then i closed it. It's charging right now.. Does anyone know why it says I have Edge service and Roaming? as well as Telelco Loco for the service where my phone says T-Mobile. hjaha

How make make my phone better.

Anyone have any tips that I could use to make my Android/Atrix experience better.
Any tips?
*Sorry if this is in the wrong section.

Oh sorry, didn't see it. Don't need to swear at me.

Here is my tip from my shallow experience with the phone and android.
1. do factory reset after your phone has been fully charged to 100% for 4hours-ish while its turned off
2. get before update root
3. update to 1.57
4. do the post update root
5. get titanium backup pro and go to the freeze the applications under the safelist.
6. get an launcher (I bought launcherpro plus, but i think just launcherpro is just as good... because the only major perks i've noticed was the launcherpro widgets and widget resizing)
7. freeze the motoblur home(after installing another launcher like lpp)
8. download screengrabber app (it works on rooted phone and I like using it, you may not need a screen capture program)
9. do the webtop mod if you want to try it. you need android sdk first to do adb commands. (I tried it to see how lapdock would feel like and I found it pretty good)
I love launcher pro, as it looks so nice!!! 3d app drawer and home screen flipping animations, and overall so many settings you can customize. (# of app row, column etc)

thank you so much!

Haven't used the phone, but just look around under the forums and find some guides. Atleast you will be able to find a guide to root it and such which will make life much better and more open for improvement best of luck.

That was pretty pointless...
no need to cuss...
I was in the same boat as the OP and it was hard for me to search through the massive massive amount of info on this forum.
No need to be so hostile... There has been alot of hate on the forum lately. I know it gets annoying when the new users start asking questions that can be found by searching. But, you have two sensible choices: 1. give them some tips so they know what to search for, or 2. don't reply to thread and let the thread die off...

Dude, You better calm down! I just got banned a couple days for fighting with somebody and cursing and you have a ****load of posts just like this! I had 2 posts then banned! You've been lucky so far but all someones gotta do is report you and then here comes the ban hammer!
No ones even starting with you! This guy just asked a question! Calm down!

if you dont need stuff like email, calendar and contacts updated to the minute its a good idea to disable this feature in settings and with titanium backup. theres a big thread in the dev section about what apps from att that are safe to freeze with titanium. this alone will significantly increase your battery life.

and if you're feeling real brave??.... You could root the **** out of it and flash gingerblur or gladiatrix or the newest rom greyblur!! Im about to flash greyblur right now!

If you want a gingerbead look to your phone, as well as getting rid of the hideous white notification bar, you should try out GingerBlur, a pseudo-rom for the Atrix.
GrayBlur has also been released, which I'll be trying out shortly.
Get a launcher. If you have the money (15$) I would buy SPB Shell. That is one amazing launcher. Or just get one of the many others like ADW, Launcher Pro, Go Launcher, etc.
If you want to tether (data plan required), go to the dev section to get the tethering APN for mobile hotspot.
Install Tenfar's custom bootstrap recovery. Allows you to flash ROMs.
Install the Amazon App market. A free paid app a day (games too).
And last but not least: check out the themes section. Lots of cool themes and boot images.

You'll have to side load it. you can enable that by running glad root.
Then, download the apk from amazon, put it on your phone, and install
Definitely worth it

Yeah as long as you reinstall amazon appstore all the time with it and I was reading that the appstore is kind of a form of spyware and require too much info from the user.
Uninstall appstore and you'll see. I had angry birds rio and a few others for free. I uninstalled the appstore and then my apps just stopped working! I heard this would happen but didnt believe it! But it is 100% true! Which like I said sucks!

How do I disable MotoBlur using TiBu?
Never live in the past but always learn from it.

Get GO Launcher EX. It's so much smoother than stock, you'll love it. I just returned to it after using LauncherPro Plus for a few weeks. Features on LauncherPro are great, but it had some stability issues for me, and GO Launcher is MUCH smoother and consistent for me. There are a lot of themes for it as well.

[Q] Best 3.2 Rom

What is the best 3.2 Rom currently for A500?
There supposedly is only the
Virtuous Xoom
Asus Transformer-Prime
Asus modified
With Samsung coming out this week or next.
Thank you

The one that has worked the best for me is the asus one, the xoom one tends to lag sometimes

Yes it is.

I switched to prime yesterday and I doubt i'll go back to acer roms until we get a 3.2 rom for it. I like being able to see both internal and SD card when connected via usb. GPS is fast to lock!. Updated drivers for everything else....The ONLY cons are lack of the dolby feature (never used it) and the landscape/portrait lock button does nothing since the asus doesn't have it. That's it.... the pro's definitely outweigh the cons.
just make sure if you flash prime and don't have/want 3G to add the ro.carrier=wifi-only line to your build.prop to disable that piece of the os.

If you don´t use / need 3G, you can disable it by editing /system/build.prop and adding the line
ro.carrier=wifi-only
Seems that saves battery with 3G disabled...

If using root explorer make sure you hit the mount r/w button at the top. Root explorer is the easiest explorer to use since the text editor is built in.

Thanks man. I did it a bit differently, but I did get it done. Hope it works. This port is absolutely fantastic.

Thank you all for your kind suggestions, though it is sad that many of the good Rom makers have either retired or left XDA.
Some of the Roms are very amazing and really want to say thank you to all the Rom developers to allow us to enjoy 3.2 before Acer has released it.

Fyi, there is a new one. A mod of PRIME 9. Using it right now and it has its hicups, but pretty solid.

Yep, I am currently using the original Prime 9 with the mods added on as zip, but it is not that different than Prime 9, but thank you for the notification.

all you people happily using prime p9, have you tried the camera? does it work for you? thanks.

The Camera works for me, though it is quite fuzzy. Which version of Prime are you on?

started with PRIMEE-P9 David's MOD v1, now using virtuous xoom. in either case, the camera app is unable to work with the rear facing camera (i only get a black screen). it works only with the front facing camera. the lightspeed 1.0.1 doesn't have this problem.
i flashed my tablet several times, followed the instructions to the letter, still the same thing. otherwise i'm pretty happy with the 3.2 custom roms.

hi does the usb works on this rom? And im using it and its far vetter than anytouch wiz rom out there, hands down for this rom the only question can i plug in a usb keyboard or pair a bluetooth keyboard or mouse ?

Also Mods may want to move this to the App section.

Thanks for the heads up. Looks like a good app. Just skimmed it but notice you can edit any document straight away without having to hit another button to edit -nice. Opened a PDF but was really slow loading each page. loved the animated icons and menu strip looks professional and sleek.

Didnt know about amazon app store before. Stupid thing doesn't work in Canada though? Lame

Unfortunately, even though it was free on Amazon for a day, it's paid software... so you won't be able to get a copy here. I feel bad that people can't use the Amazon market internationally though... the free app is sometimes a good one.

I got my the other day Thanks

It's a great app. One really nice feature is that it recognizes password protected files. The Asus Polaris software doesn't.

I am running the Prime 2.1.1 ROM and it's good. I have had trouble with the Revolution HD ROM (didn't restore apps automatically, Market crashes, some apps are shown as not compatible etc.). I will wait until the first ICS ROMs come out before I try anything new (e.g. the KRAKD ROM looks promising).

So maybe i play honeycomb and wait for the ICS roms to drop then cause that works

I have tried revolver, prime, and revolution HD for me revolution is the most stable and the battery is amazing on it. the only thing I don't like is how really stock it is. Revolver is really customizable rom you can do alot tweets but the battery drains fast. Well prime, I was getting alot of fc so I didn't play with it to much.
Sent from eee pad Transformer running Revolution HD 2.2.1

First off, make sure that you always make a backup of what you have working on the tablet. This will save you much frustration if something goes wrong. Nandroid backups are the ones that will restore a whole ROM for you. As for backing up apps with data, you can use Titanium Backup (requires root).
The two main firsts are that you should get it rooted (very easy now) and install CWM (Clockwork Recovery Mod). CWM will allow you to flash ROMs, make backups of the ROM itself and handle various memory functions.
Read through the Stickies in the Android Dev section, they will tell you all information you need to know.
As mentioned above, if you run into any kind of issue, before you post, use the search function and see if it is something that has been asked and answered before. If you are following the steps to whatever you are doing and you get stuck, chances are good someone else has done the same thing and gotten help with it.
Another thing to note is when you choose a ROM, look through its feature list, and if available, the bug list. Looking through both of those should aid you in deciding if that specific ROM or Kernel is something you want to use. If you get as far as flashing Kernels, make sure it is one that is compatible with the ROM you are using, otherwise the tablet probably won't boot and you'll have to flash a Kernel known to work with whichever ROM you chose.

Read thru the stickies above.

First thing you'll need to do is check the serial number on it and make sure you even have the choice of rooting it. AFAIK, most serials after the B60 series have a locked bootloader that hasn't been cracked yet. I hope I'm wrong, but I haven't read anything to the contrary yet.

Anyway, I would recommend getting the dock. Sometimes it is nice to have a physical keyboard, plus the additional battery adds hours of use time.
