There is a function of the ring acer (W500) for the a500 note: this function and multtouch with five fingers on the Acer Iconia W500
W500 or A200 cuz the a200 has Acer ring but I don't see how we would get a windows feature on a android tablet?

Yes. Both the W500 and A200 have the Acer Ring software. I suppose OP made a mistake, but I'm also interested in this feature...

I Have the system dump for the A200. The Acer Ring is in there and it comes with a ODEX file as well. I tried to install and push it with Root explore but it was a no go. I didnt inlude the ODEX file tho.... Should I?

Depends on if your ROM is odex dependent or not. Even if it's a deodexed ROM, pushing both won't hurt any. (unless it does, in which case i've never come across after doing it for so long)

yes you need to push both files or deodex it before you push it on your tablet

civato,
Do you or anyone else want the A200 system dump?
I don't think its as simple as pushing the file. I'm pretty sure that the ring would need some modifications to the framework

So with the introduction of the nvflash it looks like we now need to use a .tar.bz2 file which contains the ROM in 3 files...
is there anyways to convert an existing ROM that is in a .zip file type to the .tar.bz2 type? Say.. Prime!1.4 US version for example..
i guess it would just speed up the process if we can convert the ROM we want by ourselves...
hopefully that makes sense, i was just thinking aloud.
You dont need to flash that file. Extract the contents of that package to the nvflash folder and run the download.bat file.

ok sorry.. flash was the wrong word.. but the contents of a .zip are not the same as the contents of the ROM provided in the nvflash instructions.. just wondering how to get a .zip ROM to become the necessary files to use in nvflash
I don't think it has to be .tar.bz2.. you're just moving the files from that extraction to the root folder of /nvflash anyway.
It just needs to be three .imgs

your right.. and i know i can use like imgburn to make those imgs.. but what files to put in each of the 3 is the question i guess
Just extract the 3 files in the tarball(.tar.bz2) into the nvflash directory. Thats it. No modding the .img files.

I think the OP wants to make his own .imgs for his own ROMs.

this is correct... say.. for example sake.. i want to take a Prime!1.4 US version (since the WW version is the only .tar.bz2 available now) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1052380 and make it into 3 imgs for use in nvflash to then get a rooted Prime1.4 US version when its all set and done..
which files from the .zip would go into which imgs?
to be honest i dont even know if it could even be done...or if thats the way it is even done.. its all just a thought.
PS sorry for all the confusion.

Well I found out that the .tar.bz2 was WW not too long ago. As somebody mentioned, you can boot into clockwork and wipe (not sure if you have to but i did it anyway) and flash the US version right over. The OP of the NVFlash thread said that roach will come out with a 1.5 very soon. So right there might be your answer.. just wait patiently! Or if it bothers you, you can just download the US and flash it over.
I flashed the US version right over the WW version and i have no problems.

well flashing US over WW seems easy enough.. or waiting.. but thats harder to do haha

Enjoy and please provide feedback!

Thanks! Do you have any requests for other bootscreens?
sorry for this, haven't tried changing bootsound, basically how do you change that one? thanks man
Back the original one up in /system/sounds/lgeSounds/PowerOn.mp3, download this one, rename it to PowerOn.mp3 and put it in the same place.
Could u make a bootscreen of HP Lovecraft's Call of Cthulhu
Depends if it's bootable.
You know how to change is it our in this case add it in miks Cm7 rom

Hmm... To tell you the truth, I have no idea. I am using the stock v20g ROM + root and tweaks btw. You should go find the special tutorial for applying bootscreens on the V or your ROM.

Applying the bootanimation is cake. I should have been more clear. The sound file folder doesnt exist in the path listed above. Ive tried various different things to get this to work and asked about it before in other threads. But nobody knows.
Thanks for the reply guess Ill go rip apart the stock rom and see where virgin hides their sounds.

Ah, I see. Yeah, guess you gotta do that if the sound is not the same as the original LG one (you can check that out in a recent video on my YouTube channel).
I just got a new OTA update. It is still showing 3.1, but the build is now 8.4.4.11-20110711.
If you can't get the update to flash successfully try this method below.

In my case, Mexico. i get new apps, like TegraZone Games, Videos(name of the app).
I cannot install the update. When it reboots to install, I get the Android thingy with a big yellow triangle with an exclamation point in it. I suppose the reason I cannot install is because I am running Netformer 1.5.
run aLogCat and get the OTA link please.
When/if you see the notification that you have an update available -- stop everything and run the aLogcat app.
Send the log file to yourself via email (that's built into the app)
Look through the log file on your computer, searching for a URL
Try any URL's that you find on your computer's browser
When you find one that downloads a zip file, save the zip file to your computer
Shout from the rooftops, and share that URL
Then upload and mirror it somewhere

or if you want you can just email me the log file and ill obtain the OTA link. pm me if you want my email to email it to.

If people stop accepting the OTA / ignoring me and did what I said in the previous post about aLogCat I could go into the zip and dig some things out of it for rooted/custom ROM'd users.
Just do it before you actually take the OTA. It will be most appreciated.
How do you run logcat from the terminal or adb?
I'm running a rooted stock ROM and the OTA is downloading now...

Now that we have Root, can someone get Netflix to work on the Thrive?
I know that the Transformer has a hack (Some System file replacement) that let the netflix work on it.
Can we get something like that on the Thrive?
You can actually use that hack... If you are talking about the .zip you flash in recovery... I did it last night and have had no issues.
netflix works on all tabs now I think, there's a apk floating around.

Netflix does work on this tab with root and the hack. Prior to root though it was not working with just installing the .apk as confirmed here: thriveforums.org/forum/toshiba-thrive-apps/1145-app-working-netflix-honeycomb.html.

Nope, it doesn't work on a stock Thrive, or some other tablets on 3.1 or 3.0. If you're rooted, you can get around it.

I don't know what files you downloaded, but to get the netflix app to work, you should have downloaded a .zip file from the asus transformer section, which you flash from the clockwork custom recovery.

I've been looking at the 10.1 system dump all day trying to find Motocast.
There is something called zumoservice in there and I figured that might be Motocast in disguise (I doubt it, but I'm hopeful). Unfortunately its odexed. Anyone know how to make this an apk file I can install?
