Are you guys doing a wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache before flashing this rom over your Prime 1.5?

Just had my first hard reboot today. I was playing a game called Cordy with SetCPU set to 1.6Ghz. Probably why. I may need to be a little more conservative with the OC but on Prime 1.5 had not such issues.

There is definite improvement in other areas. When flicking between the home screens it's faster. Also faster in portrait mode than before. Other stuff is just bugfixes though it would appear. There is a lot hanging on 3.2 but don't get your hopes up too high.

3G USB dongle support

Hi, i previously used the NVflash, Acer 3G script to turn on the mobile network capabilities of the ROM. If i switch to this ROM, can i still use it?

I've noticed that too. My WiFi is off and my battery went from 53% to 42% in 3-4 hours being on idle. Going to try and revert back to Netformer kernel and see if its the kernel thats causing the problem.

When I go to airplane mode, the Battery is really a lot slower to go down. 10% in 4 hours means it lasts about 40 hours. What's the problem.
Did you disconnect Bluetooth?

Gnu...
This is a good one. When I flashed from Prime 1.5 to your original ROM, updated to .2 then .2.1. All flashed through CWR.
No wipe...as mentioned by you.
I did flash the stock icon pack back on...I like the ASUS icons.

Now, when it is off the keyboard/dock, the battery icon is a mail icon.
When I put it on the dock, all is well.

Any idea on that one?
If I have to resort back to the Xoom style icons, I will...no biggie.

Oh, also lost the mouse pointer for the dock...it's there on the screen somewhere, if I tap, it'll open stuff. I just can't see the pointer.

Thx...loving this ROM so far. Smooth, fast, little to no lag...great work.

I did exactly as you did and no problem :

Mouse pointer is OK
I have 2 battery icons (ASUS one and dual battery icon and both keep staying even if undocked.

should you reinstall?

    • What's the actual version?
      In the second part of the thread's name you can find both the numeric version and the code-version. The former is expressed in this way: branch.version[.subversion]. Usually a subversion consists of a bugfix release. The latter is expressed in this way: AABC[D], where AA is the Android version on which the firmware is based (for example HC or IC), B is the hexadecimal value of the branch, C is the hexadecimal value of the version and D is the hexadecimal value of the subversion.
    • I want to use 3G on my tablet (also with 3g keys). How can I do that?
      Download and flash the plugin "Revolver 3G enabler" from Revolver parts. Now reboot and it should work! More details HERE.
    • Hey mate, I want to use Revolver on my Slider (SL101). Can I?
      Yep, it's possible. Just flash the Revolver Slider compatibility pack on top on Revolver.
    • I want to increase the sensitivity of the touchscreen. What could I do?
      There is an app for that. Give a look here
    • Guys I can't download anything from Revolver Parts, what could I do?
      Sometimes server can have some problems; however if you can't download from the app you can manually download the packages from the Revolver repository.

    Guys, this is an important message.

    Some ETAs:
    • Revolver 4 Alpha: tomorrow, just a re-packed ICS for impatient guys.
    • Revolver 4 Beta: within some days, with some of the Revolver3 features.
    • Revolver 4 Stable: expected for the Saturday 3, March.
    If the ETAs are not respected, please understand that ICS is a whole new operating system. Everything need to be updated!

    Another thing. I'm going to close this thread. With more than 700 pages, there may be confusion with older version. I will create a new thread as soon as a build is available.

    Last thing: avoid to send me any PM, they are quite annoying me. I'm not closing this thread to start a "PM thread".

    It's time to say goodbye to this thread ;)

    I'm sorry to delay again the release date for the first Revolver4 build.
    Asus released a really bugged update, and I'm trying to fix all the problems before publishing it.

    Therefore the Alpha status will be skipped in order to reach the Beta status ASAP.
    Releasing an Alpha product can create a mess, and my internet connection is quite slow.

    This is why I ask you to wait one (or two) more day(s). Trust me, you won't be disappointed of what I'm managing to do.
