You cant brick the Vega. First boot of this ROM takes quite a long time, try again you can ALWAYS get in to nvflash, just keep trying make sure you long hold power and make sure Vega is off first

Thanks mate for your quick reply. OK so now for nvflash is it the same process? i.e. back and power button? And when you say long, how long (not being funny at all, just want to know before trying nvflash)? I will let it go for 30 mins and see.

Thanks,
Bhargav

p.s. OK, got it back in nvflash and now trying to push your HC rom again. fingers crossed!

its funny youve said that kos ive had a play on the xoom (which felt sluggish) and a play and the transformer (which felt rapid) and they both have the same specs so i have no clue why that is.

Because the Honeycomb presented in the Xoom was a desperate attempt to make it in time against iPad2 and it shows, while the newer models benefit from that usually not well valued thing called "healthy development cycle".

WOW guys, really awesome. Expected this for next month, now im just thinking we will get a great Beta instead.

Really Really, awesome. Thanks to you the Advent Vega is really worth the money.

You never know, after a short while we may end up with a Transformer, but with an inferior screen.
Never seen things move so fast with a thread.

I mean this in a nice way.  If you can follow these instructions, great.  If not, then the best advice is to wait until the guys have had chance to develop this further.  You will almost certainly flash this, then want to go back to a "normal" ROM until this amazing piece of work is ready for day use.

Anyway, just add "pause" to the end of the batch file.  Then you'll see what the problem is.

I wanted to make an update.zip for this.
as i'm not to keen on using the nvflash method :S

are there any guides on how to make a rom update zip?
I assume its just a case of having the boot.img and unpacking the system.img and filling in the blanks etc...

ok thanks, it was more a question for those already installing, not directly at the developers...... doesnt sound in a nice way to be honest

[Kevrae]

ok really liking the vega running honeycomb (albeit in a limited capatcity) made me truly amazed at a great bargain this tablet is. with the right developers in place. we are blessed lol cheers again guys hope next time i install it its for keeps.

Hello all,

don´t know if for you it´s the same, but for me SD Card was not mounted. But as soon as i open Root-Explorer and try to open SDCARD, take the card out and reinsert it, it tooks a short while and surprise: SDCard is mounted.
Maybe it helps you.

Best regards
