Hi
I've just ordered a Vega from eBay (cost me just £120 ) and the seller offered to install a rom of my choice for me as he currently had it running ICS beta. Got him to install Vegacomb 3.2 build 9n as its the latest and the 1st one on the forum but just wondering what you guys think is the most stable Rom. I'm basically gonna be using it for games and watching movies from a USB stick.
Thanks in advance

I have tried various versions of: Stock, CM7, Corvus5, Vegacomb, HoneyICE, ICS Alpha2 on mine, but the most stable ROM to date IMO has been:
ViewComb 3.2
(Currently using build 6.3)
Stock is too old
CM7 & Corvus5 too slow / old
VegaComb and HoneyICE
-------------------------
Tried builds:
VegaComb 9n -> 9n upd3
HoneyICE 3.26 & 3.27
I have had many FC's, especially in browsers.
Also a lot of issues with getting bluetooth and Wifi operating together properly.
Also I have found install can be a pain due to having to nvflash then recovery install, then updates etc.
Sometimes it all installs fine in one round, other times I have spent hours re-flashing & installing only to find I get boot loops each time.
(Others have not had these issues but forum posts suggest its hit and miss)
ViewComb
----------
Simple to install - via nvflash.
Stable
Fast
ICS Alpha2
---------
Very nice, fast ROM, will definately move to this when it comes out of Alpha
So would you recommend Viewcomb as like I said all I want is for it to be fast stable and be able to watch movies and listen to music of a USB

Nokia CK-15w Bluetooth Car Kit
Any HDCR Kernel Based ROM
It seems that any HDCR Kernel based rom causes the Nkia car-kit to reboot when downloading contacts.
I was originally running WildPuzzleRom v8.0.11 FRF91 2.2 (kernel 2.6.32.21-g4b3e397 htc-kernal) which worked as expected and I could download the contacts to my Car-Kit.
I them swapped to CM7 RC1 (great work by the way) and contact download starts, but then causes the carkit to reboot. I tried the nightlies for a while but same issue and then tried RC2 but same issue.
I have tried different versions of the Kernel 4, 4.1 and 4.2 but that all cause the car kit to reboot when downloading contacts. I have tried a second Nokia CK-15w Car Kit and the same problem occurs.
I put CM6 on the phone, but same problem and have since tried a few HDCR kernel based roms but they all have the same problem. So I can only think something in the kernel is causing the issue.
Bluetooth connectivity works well, but contact download is the issue.
I quite like CM7 and would be very happy if I could resolve this issue, but so far I have been unable to. I also posted on the CM forum but have had no response.
So thought (i am new to this) I would ask here if anyone has any ideas? or if there is a Stock (non hdcr) rom i could use with either cm6 or cm7?
There is a new kernel in the latest nightlies (nFinity tuxbox by Arco), and, you can check that out. But, remember, some people are having other issues with that, like 3G not working, call drops when screen shuts off etc. There are fixes available in the CM thread here that solves it,but you will have to hunt a bit.
Either way, a Nandroid backup before trying it is essential.

its actually just nfinity.
Tuxbox is the name of Arco's host computer
Cheers, just downloaded CM7 nightly 30 so will at least be able to check to see if the contact downloads works. If its all good then will have something to look forward to once the other issues are resolved. I always take a nandroid backup lol Better safe than sorry.
Hey guys,
I experimented a little bit with bezkes ICS and FixeROM.
At bezkes ROM i do not have a very stable data/network connection and very much FCs. But the first look was ok, so I tried the FixeROM.
In fresh flashed condition it runs very well for an alpha ROM, but there are bugs like charging-problems with heat of the device.
I thought I combine the two ROMs, not "dev-like", but flash one after another.
So I flashed bezkes ICS, played a little with it (pushed the stock launcher from adb, took the android stock keyboard) and was very frustrated that there are so many FCs.
I know that this is not the best solution, but I flashed the FixeROM ON bezkes ICS and... tada... got a stable network/data connection, WLAN is working very well, charging is possible and there are no FCs about 30min.
After that I flashed the CF-root kernel for KP2.
//EDIT
The stable data/network connection is lost after a reboot! Please notice that. If you got any solution, please post it. Thanks!
//EDIT
Follow these steps:
1. Flash bezkes ICS ROM and configure it
2. Flash FixeROM WITHOUT any wipe!!!
3. Flash CF-Root via Odin
4. Enjoy ICS

ive just installed vegacomb coming from Corvus5 and when it comes on i get a message about if ive paid for this rom ive been robbed, ive installed the 9n version over v1 and v2 modded stock and am wondering if this is normal i havent as far as i know installed any updates on the base vegacomb. Vegacomb seems to be running fine but this message is like a nag screen is it normal and if its not how do i remove it there seems to be so many versions have i got the wrong one or do i need to do some other flash. Im going to install Honeyice over the top as that includes all updates and hope this fixes the issues.
Hi!

Version 1.041.00 of the OTA ROM was flat busted on my A500.
I've updated to a v1.054.00 based ROM and have not had any rotation issues since. The ROM is called FlexReaper-Relix_rev5 and is at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1517181 If you do not want a custom ROM then Civato has also placed a stock OTA of 1.054.00 (with Root) at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1633907
I am thinking that perhaps 1.054 is the fabled fix that Acer is putting on devices sent into them for "repair"?
It would be good to know if someone who has received one back from Acer repair can say what specific ROM version is installed when they got it back. Go to Settings -> About Tablet, then report back the Build number and similar info. That would probably help the devs out a bit.
Also, I have the same v7 bootloader as with 1.041, so all that has changed was a version update to the ROM. I also briefly tried Civato's OTA 1.054 ROM and it was not having any issue. I usually had the issue on 1.041 within a few minutes of booting and running just a couple apps.
Knock on wood, hopefully my tablet will remain sane.
Good luck!
I get an exclamation work on videos when I watch flash videos on either Firefox beta / AOSP browser when watched in full screen.
I have latest flash 11.1.115.20 sideloaded. Anyone facing similar issues? I am trying to watch videos from watchop.com [ If anyone could verify if they can watch videos from this site and let me know is it just me would be great ]
Using PA 2.2 with latest faux kernel.
Yeah, i get it everytime, nomatter what site i am on
Gets a bit annoying
I flashed the CM10 with Tablet UI ROM by z1gackly and it works awesome now, flash flawlessly on full screen on asop browser :victory:. Dunno what the issue is with PA 2.2.
I have that problem with the version of flash you are using.I use an older version and it works fine full screen.Try installing the older flash version 11.1.115.12. It works best for me with the browser.
James-NC: The is no issue with latest flash, I am using latest one and it is in fact better much smoother. I flashed a different ROM and issue got fixed.
The newer versions always crash if I go to full screen on most websites.I tried several different versions and the old one always works full screen.Not saying it will be the same for everyone just giving the OP an option that works best on my tablet.
The new one worked great before the jb upgrade but I have not been able to get it to work full screen since the upgrade.I am running stock.
