Did anyone try Christian Troy's CM10 port?

Typing nightmare

Just my two cents:
The latest ROM is in the matter of speed, fluidity the same as the rest. Nothing new. At least I do not see it.
Typing on the tablet is still pain in the ars. It is slow and in many applications including the internet browser it lags. So the only solution is to type a little slower.
The lag in some applications is horrible. Example Kingsoft office of Photo editor. even the simple Gmail.
I have tried some other keyboards but no difference in speed.
Hope this issue will be solved soon.
Otherwise I hope this ROM will not delete my Google account from tablet like 1.32 or 1.35 without possibility to get it back and use the google applications, or demand a factory default reset after some time for no obvious reason.

YouTube 4.2.16

Hi, Everybody!
All of us knows that latest version of official YouTube application doesn't work on last SDK 2.0 firmware. And as solution was adviced to install older version 4.1.47.
But as for me, interface of 4.1.47 is not really good, and I used to latest version interface.
So, if you like me love latest interface, you can install YouTube version 4.2.16 and it work propertly on 2.0 firmware.
You can download it in attachment.

Modules in ONDA972-OPFT-2.0.1

Hey, guys!
I noticed that size of drivers in ONDA972-OPFT-2.0.1 much less, then stock.
For example, WiFi driver /system/vendor/modules/8188eu.ko in ONDA972-OPFT-2.0.1 has size 752 Kb and in stock 2.0 it is 13,8 Mb! That is a difference of 13 times!
Who can guess what chinese developers did with drivers to do them so small in size?

Tried that Cyanogenmod port last night, the latest one based on 2.0 firmware, standard 'wipe everything and install via CWM', first boot took about five minutes as it did a lot of housekeeping but once up and running was pretty niffy and stable, slight keyboard lag but as I type so friggin slowly I hardly noticed! It's looking good for the Onda V972

 

[Rajata]

Hello. Which is better Kasty or Cyanogenmod??? I already have Kasty running with no problem. Just speaker still a little low but other than that it is stable with only a little lag when typing. Thanks in advance.:highfive:

Hi guys, very new to the android scene and preordered the Onda and I have to say this thread has been very helpful! Unfortunately I'm a bit of a noob with his but I'm having a problem updating to v2.0, I'm currently running v1.35, the built in update app is downloading v2.0 fine but its crashing during update giving the message: apply_patch_check("/system/app/fire reader.apk. Any ideas what I should do? I really don't want to wipe and reinstall but I will if I have to, any suggestions. Thanks very much in advance for any help.

You need to be using the Phoenix Flash tool that is included in the .rar download instead of the update app. The Phoenix tool runs on your laptop/pc and flashes the image to your tablet via the usb cable. I have never gotten the update app on the v972 to work properly. Phoenix works flawlessly every time, and I have flashed my v972 at least 10 times trying different roms and combinations. In the case of Supernova and other custom roms you will need to use CWM as they are .zip operations. Of course, using the Phoenix tool does wipe everything, but it is a "clean" install and gives the best results. If you use Titanium Backup Pro you can backup all your apps and then do a batch restore of your apps after you flash v2.0. Makes flashing updates pretty painless. If you use an alternate launcher like Nova, Nova backs up its own settings and when reinstalled, you don't even have to do any setup of your launcher as all homescreens restore as you had them before flashing. I use an external sdcard and copy over my internal sdcard to the ext card before flashing. Then, after flashing an update or a custom rom, simply copy over the backed-up sdcard to the internal sdcard and restore my apps. Works like a charm. That external sdcard slot is a huge feature on the v972 IMO. If for nothing else, it makes backing up the internal sd so easy. Flashing / updating and restoring is so easy.

EDIT: I've had some problems restoring the CWM backups on this device, so I use the above method, which is pretty fail safe.

Thanks very much for such a detailed response jyams, really fantastic, quick question, how would I go about copying over the apps to my microsd card, is this done on the tablet or through my computer, thanks again for the response....

stuck at recovery

Yesterday I got my V972 with 1.32 firmware,first thing I did its to flash "Kasty v2" with Phoenix and everything went well.
After a couple of time I saw the "Arc tools" and I tried to flash thru it CWM recovery.
After the flash complete I did a reboot and it goes into the CWM .
Everytime I do reboot ,it's going back to the CWM,I'm stuck in it and I can't get out from it.
I've also tried thru ADB to "ADB reboot" but still the same.
Hope someone can help me with this.

Do you own a 32 Gb version & did you flash it with .kasty-onda_v972-41-v20-rooted3.zip?
It happened to me similarly but on an earlier occasion.......almost thought my device is bricked.
They modified arctools in *.3.zip to suit 32 Gb version. As of me, I used the other method of copying the recovery files in the internal memory and installing it by ADB/ terminal emulator. Need to mention that I am comfortable & happy with TWRP posted by ankar84 instead of the CWM.
Well nothing much to worry ........all you would need to reflash with stock/ Kasty using Phoenix and install CWM/ TWRP using adb/terminal instead.
Cheers!!!

 

[kleinyair]

Yes I own the 32gb device and I used kasty V2 not V3.
Can you please write to me how exactly to do it with adb.
Phoenix doesn't recognized my device in CWM.
Thanks a lot for your help.

Sure it won't be recognized.
Turn off the device by holding the power button for 10 -20 seconds. The follow the regular Phoenix flashing method to install Kasty.
To install CWM by adb is similar to that by terminal.
Boot the phone normally
Enable USB debugging
Extract and copy the CWM -32 bit.zip ( 3 nos files) into the internal sd.
In adb type
adb devices
Once the device is shown
adb shell
su
adb busybox sh /sdcard/install-recovery.sh
done
That's it you can either reboot and go in CWM holding the home & power button together
or
adb shell
su
adb busybox sh /sdcard/reboot-recovery.sh

I hope this helps.........cheers!
