Thanks I got this to work. But it's 1280x800 and to keep the 160dpi I have to set it in the build.prop.

Not because of new nightly that's for sure.

The problem is I hadn't really listened to music before this. However, that day I installed double twist, winamp, poweramp, and isyncr. I used isyncr to get all my music off itunes. However, even after uninstalling all of these, the problem still remains.

Does it have anything to do with wakelock and screen off cpu downscaling? (Although raising min cpu didn't fix anything...)

Something that might help though--I was downloading a nightly update yesterday (in an attempt to fix the problem) and while downloading and playing music at the same time with the screen off, the music didn't stutter..

Thanks

There is currently no screen off downscaling on our device. It might be a bit extreme, but can you try backing up your rom then wiping data?

Hi, nice "hack" :D changing on the fly is nice
How can I do this, or other terminal code, like an one click shortcut
Like .bat file or script on windows

most simple thing would be a shortcut or app that launches .sh scripts.
But the thing is, the navigation, notification bar and launcher gets buggy when you change the density on the fly so you have to make a warm reboot.
also the UI flickers a bit sometimes, not sure why, maybe because of the upscaling.
It's a nice hack to get a performance boost in games but it still needs some optimizations.

I am facing a new problem. My system reboots automatically after approx. 1 minute. The tablet was runnig with the nighlty 20130212. I have even wiped data and cache and installed an older nightly 20130208. But Im facing the same problem. The same thing happens when I turn off the display. It boots automatically after 1 minute. Is there anythiing bricked? What can I do now?

Does it reboot back to the Android screen or the bootloader? What happens if you try the stock ROM?

It boots back to the Android screen. I have tried different ROMS as well like INCONIA 2.1. I even removed the SD card and changed it with another card...but same procedure...rebooting and rebooting...

Since I have Cyanogen on my a700 and on my SGS2 the speaker and headset volume is very low. Do you have the same problem?

Sorry that it took so long to get back. I solved the problem.

Flashed stock rom, did some OTA updating which updated the bootloader (previously ICS bootloader on this ROM). Now I don't have too many problems (and the music thing works!)

Was it an issue with the ICS bootloader and JB rom incompatibility?



Thanks again.

Does this rom already solved the hot issue? If yes, I would like to buy one.

Thanks

Can get warm sometimes.

If you use it when it's charging it might get a little unsettling warm, but I guess it's okay.

If you don't like lag, this device may slightly bother you... That's my only bad... Everything else is pretty good. Speaker is worse than ipad..

the temperature problem can be solved by using powersaving modes or limiting cpu clock.
its not really a problem though cuz it's normal that it gets warm on heavy CPU usage.
The lag can be partly solved by lowering the resolution to 1280x800 @160DPI.

I disagree that it is 'normal'. I can overheat my A700 to the point of crashing and reboot at will by playing a game or benchmark for more than 20 min.

I agree that underclocking or lowering res would probably mitigate it... But I wouldn't call that a 'normal' thing to have to do on a consumer electronics device.

Regardless, all of this is off topic for this thread. Please take it to general.

    CyanogenMod is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.

    WARNING: I've bricked my tablet into APX mode around the 10th time of flashing this ROM (recovery froze and it rebooted into APX). The new (Update 1) recovery should be safer than the old one, but flash at your own risk!

    Code: 
    #include 
/*
 * Your warranty is now void.
 *
 * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
 * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
 * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
 * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
 * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
 */

    CyanogenMod is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. CyanogenMod does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

    All the source code for CyanogenMod is available in the CyanogenMod Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to CyanogenMod, please visit out Gerrit Code Review. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.

    Device-specific source code for the Acer A700 are available from https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_acer_a700 and https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_kernel_acer_t30

    Do not submit bug on CyanogenMod issue tracker

    Downloads
    Latest Nightly: http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=a700
    Google Apps: http://goo.im/gapps

    Installation
    1. Install CWM recovery from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1791165 (note that the old touch version will not work because of incorrect default.prop from CWM builder)
    2. Do a Nandroid Backup!
    3. Install the ROM using ClockworkMod Recovery
    4. Optionally install the Google Addon
    5. Wipe data if coming from stock

    Changelog
    A rough changelog is (will be) available here:
    http://changelog.bbqdroid.org/#/cm10.1/a700 or http://10.1.cmxlog.com/?device=a700

    Reporting Bugs

    You are allowed to report bugs only in this thread.

    • Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
    • If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
    Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. The following is a useful format to follow.

    Code: 
    What is your--
Phone model:
Radio (baseband):
CM version:
CM Download url:
Gapps version:

Did you--
wipe:
 restore with titanium backup:
reboot after having the issue:

Are you using--
a task killer:
a non-stock kernel:
CMSettings/Performance settings (other than stock):
other modifications:

Provide any additional information (observations/frequency of problem/last version it worked on/etc) as needed:

    The CyanogenMod team would like to thank everyone involved in helping with testing, coding, debugging & documenting! Enjoy!

    Note to Official JB Users

    Jelly Bean bootloader is only supported on 201212023-EXEPRIMENTAL and later NIGHTLIES.

    It'll probably eventually get it. I just don't have the free time right now to port it.

    Has anyone had success tethering to a phone? I've tried tethering my A700 to my GT-i9300 both running cm10.1 and though they connect using Wi-Fi hotspot and bluetooth tethering, internet only works when the i9300 is using Wi-Fi from my router. If my i9300 is on data and I try to open a browser or internet reliant app like Facebook, Gmail etc., on the A700, it tries to load unsuccessfully. I know others on the i9300 cm10.1 discussion thread have had success with other tablets. I couldn't find a tethering setting when on stock (A700) but would expect it to work if it works when my phone has a Wi-Fi connection to my router!

    I tether from my Galaxy S1 just fine. Have you tried your accessing I9300's internet from another device (e.g. laptop) to verify that it is indeed providing a connection?

    Has anyone tried LagFix/FStrim on their device running this version of CM? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grilledmonkeydonate.lagfix&hl=en

    As a side note, any idea if it is possible, in the works, etc to get TWRP working on our device? Is it possible or easy to port it? I find it more user friendly for flashing the nightlies along with the Chrome Desktop patch, Sony Certificate Installer etc that I do along with every update.
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse

    FStrim will have no effect on our device since I've disabled TRIM support within the kernel, as it is this command that causes bricks on our device. (There is a bug in Samsung's EMMC firmware.)

    Porting TWRP should be fairly easy to do.

    EDIT: Attached. Not creating a new thread for this since I won't really be supporting it.
