Guest premieral Posted June 6, 2011 Report Posted June 6, 2011 Accelaromamadoodle fantistic on my corvus5 sp1 vega, been enjoying a whole bunch of games my wife had installed,not rubbing noses in it guys just to say it has to be a localized factor at work, not the rom in general. Could you give the games you are playing? And I agree its not the Rom as we all had the accelerometer working beautifully before flashing Sp1 but since sp1 something has caused the accelerometer to stop working as well for a lot of folk. What would be usefully would be to see what other apks are being run by those whose doesn't work and those whose do. I have beautifull Widgets loaded and running and multi live wallpapers, plus setcpu can't think of anything else not normally loaded.

Just been playing JetCarStunts and Riptide GP with no problems at all. I'm using VTL launcher I'm in game mode and I've got the rotation thingy off. I think it's off. It's not bright anyway.
Guest flip.c Posted June 6, 2011 Report Posted June 6, 2011 JetcarStunts works OK here too (game mode with auto rotate widget off (darkened)).

Just like algie, to the letter! thanks Derffie, havent tried my jetcar stunts but riptide is the one that is exceptionally jerky so i will investigate. ***edit***** have just noticed from the above posts that you guys are still using the auto rotate widget, so this could be where i have been plainly very simple :D i thought the new game/mouse mode option made this redundant so havent been using it doh. Will give it another go tonight, again thanks for the help Edited June 7, 2011 by premieral

The new game/mouse mode is for people who want to use a mouse, you still have to use the widget to remove the stutter from the accelerometer in games! newbe5

Guest Posted June 7, 2011 Report Posted June 7, 2011 Status - About Device - this brings up a Force Close Does this happen for anyone else?
Guest Algie Posted June 7, 2011 Report Posted June 7, 2011 Does this happen for anyone else? Not for me. Works fine.
Guest flip.c Posted June 7, 2011 Report Posted June 7, 2011 Does this happen for anyone else? Hi, After renaming both the Phone.apk & TelephonyProvider.apk suffixes to .OLD using the script, which is supposed to save battery power whilst in standby, I get a force close whilst checking About Device > Status. Renaming both these back to the .apk suffixes then rebooting sorts out the force close. Phill

Phone.apk & TelephonyProvider.apk
Guest flip.c Posted June 7, 2011 Report Posted June 7, 2011 I was wrong it's Settings - About Device - Status that FCs. Where are these files? Phone.apk & TelephonyProvider.apk Hi, These are to do with the phone service, which as the vega doesn't have the gubbins to utilize it, doen't seem to be required. I'm still testing it out (unscientifically!) I found this out here: http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/how-to...of-advent-vega/ Phill.
Guest monkums Posted June 7, 2011 Report Posted June 7, 2011 (edited) I have a quick search and can't find an answer so far. I've just reflashed Corvus5 after using Vegacomb for a while and all went well. However when I flash SP1 over it my screen rotation is out of sync. When in held landscape the screen is in portrait and when held in portrait the screen is in landscape. Any thoughts on how to sort this out? Edited June 7, 2011 by monkums
Guest Posted June 7, 2011 Report Posted June 7, 2011 I haven't got those files so I'm not sure that is the issue in my case using SP1
Guest ZTE_Blade Posted June 8, 2011 Report Posted June 8, 2011 vegacomb try 3 days and return my rom corvus . instal CWM corvus zip and sp1 eerythin ok süper fast and stabil my problem is usb host - slave mode how do it ;)))))

It says on their; 'For enter usb host mode: Press power button, once display get power (you will see the diference), press back button and hold until finish booting.'
Guest lambrettalad Posted June 9, 2011 Report Posted June 9, 2011 I have installed this rom and have no problems apart from after I installed launcher the home screen is stuck in portrait mode and with the standard launcher the screen is stuck in landscape and doesnt auto rotate although in apps i.e internet it does auto rotate. The major problem I am having is the tablet is stuck in flight mode. I was flying the other day and had to put the tablet into flight mode, after arriving I went to return the tablet to normal mode with wifi on and in the wireless and networks settings the airplane mode tick box was unticked as was the wifi box although the little airplan icon is still on bar at the top. I put a tick in the wifi box to see if that would overide the airplane mode and put the wifi icon on the bar but it didnt. After ticking the wifi box it does say it is scanning although it doesnt pick up on any wifi signals. I also tried outting a tick back in the airplane mode box to see if its possible to then untick it to turn it off, no joy witrh this either. I am running corvus5 with sp1 and 3g pack installed, I am all out if ideas bar clearing out and starting again. Anyhelp would be greatly appreciated, cheers.

If you can somehow get access to the market.Download a program called quicksettings which is free and will allow you to toggle off airplane mode and remove the icon

The screen button is in the unlocked position, its only on the standard home screen when it is stuck in landscape and with launcer pro installed its stuck in portrait. When using either home screen, if I run an app i.e browser then the screen then behaves correctly ;)

When using either home screen, if I run an app i.e browser then the screen then behaves correctly ;) On the Vega the Home screen and All Apps screens appear to only work in Landscape (at least on all the roms I have tried, with the exception of VegaComb, where they do switch to Portrait and back). Some Apps are designed to only work in one orientation or other. On Corvus + SP1 the re-orientation is fast. With VegaComb there is considerable lag, at least when I tried it twice (but this may be because I did not install it quite correctly (?)) MikhailM.

MikhailM. i always use vtl launcher and this has settings for landscape and portrait and works equally well in both with all roms i have tried, which is nearly all of them ;)
