Guest WWEpsp Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 (edited) 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. Edited May 9, 2011 by WWEpsp
Guest peter a Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 (edited) 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. 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. Edited May 9, 2011 by peter a

Guest mintvilla Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 how do i increase the system partition from 125 to 300, I guess if i'm asking then maybe i should'nt be playing. :unsure: does it for you when it flashes
Guest doireabu Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 having problems installing.......... in recovery ......... double click windows recovery file and hit run..... boots up cmd but only for a second, dont have time to even read it any help much appreciated
Guest houdini2005 Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 does it for you when it flashes thanks :unsure:
Guest Kevrae Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 just flashed now waiting for first boot so excited its ridiculous. thanks very much guys once wifi is good i think ill be set.
Guest Gavjbrown Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 Excellent work guys. As soon as wifi is working i'll give it a try.
Guest simonta Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 having problems installing.......... in recovery ......... double click windows recovery file and hit run..... boots up cmd but only for a second, dont have time to even read it any help much appreciated 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.
Guest bewA Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 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...

Guest Kevrae Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 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.
Guest Wiss911 Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 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 Wiss911
Guest Minimonkey Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 Just had a play very nice work looking forwards to future updates cheers guys :unsure:

Best regards Wiss911 how did you get root explorer working and also does usb-mounting work?
Guest Melted Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 HC is so sweet. props to devs. I Don't know about Honeycomb, but when we troubleshooted the Notion Adam Rom, in order to get wifi to work you had too copy from a PoV/Vega ROM following file/maps: mkdir /sdcard/PovFiles cp /system/lib/libhardware_legacy.so /sdcard/PovFiles/libhardware_legacy.so cp /system/lib/hw/wlan /sdcard/PovFiles/wlan cp /system/lib/hw/wlan_ar6002 /sdcard/PovFiles/wlan_ar6002[/codebox] After flashing: - install Root Explorer and z4root. Root your device. - remount your /system with read/write. Copy the files back: [codebox] mv /system/lib/libhardware_legacy.so /system/lib/libhardware_legacy.so.bak mv /system/lib/hw/wlan /system/lib/hw/wlan.bak cp /sdcard/PovFiles/libhardware_legacy.so /system/lib/libhardware_legacy.so cp /sdcard/PovFiles/wlan /system/lib/hw/wlan cp /sdcard/PovFiles/wlan_ar6002 /system/lib/hw/wlan_ar6002 And correct the permissions: chmod 755 /system/lib/libhardware_legacy.so chmod 755 /system/lib/hw/wlan chmod 644 /system/lib/hw/wlan/ar6000.ko chmod 644 /system/lib/hw/wlan/athwlan.bin.z77 chmod 644 /system/lib/hw/wlan/data.patch.hw2_0.bin chmod 644 /system/lib/hw/wlan/eeprom.bin chmod 644 /system/lib/hw/wlan/eeprom.data chmod 755 /system/lib/hw/wlan_ar6002 chmod 644 /system/lib/hw/wlan_ar6002/ar6000.ko chmod 644 /system/lib/hw/wlan_ar6002/athwlan.bin.z77 chmod 644 /system/lib/hw/wlan_ar6002/data.patch.hw2_0.bin chmod 644 /system/lib/hw/wlan_ar6002/eeprom.bin chmod 644 /system/lib/hw/wlan_ar6002/eeprom.data [/codebox] After reboot your WiFi can now be activated. did someone more experienced tried this? would be amazing to have wifi to play a little more with HC and really expand the possibilities of it.
Guest bhargav27 Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 OK, really getting a bit frustrating for me. I've flashed this image 4 times now. Each time it flashes fine (the last one to be pushed out is data.img). And then I disconnect the usb and power off the vega. When I restart it the screen just lightens but nothing happens. I've tried leaving it for about 30 mins but no luck. Am I not following something right?
Guest Wiss911 Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 (edited) how did you get root explorer working and also does usb-mounting work? For example in that way :unsure: http://www.pressbyte.com/1553/install-app-...lor-android-30/ Edited May 9, 2011 by Wiss911

Best regards Wiss911 Correction : You don´t need Rootexplorer. Just take the card out after finished booting and reinsert it. Finished.
Guest spachal Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 My respect to your skills :] .. and a little suggestion to mods, close all other topics about honeycomb here and put link to this one plz ..
Guest houdini2005 Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 brill i love it, when wifi etc is running this is going to be stunning can't wait to pose this on the IFAD boys lmao. keep up the good work well done. :unsure:
Guest newbe5 Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 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... The problem is, using ClockworkMod flash method, you cannot increase system partition size, you can only do this through nVflash, so it definitely has to be done this way for now! BTW, don't flash a new ROM using CWM after this one, you HAVE to restore using 1.09 restore (or some other nVflash backup) to restore partition size! newbe5
Guest Algie Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 Congratulations guys. Great work. I think Dixons/Currys should buy you a couple of crates each. This will make the Vega an absolute bargain. :unsure:
Guest kampo Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 (edited) Great work thanks Edited May 9, 2011 by kampo
Guest HunteronX Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 The team that brought you Corvus5 is back, to bring you HoneyComb for your Vega :unsure: See the original thread I posted over at TabletRoms here! the download is there. My brain is hurting now... time to go for a rest :/ Remember this is ALPHA, please don't come back saying stuff doesn't work :P We have posted this so that Vega owners can have bragging rights, yes, our tablet ROCKS. There are some bits and bobs that are messy, or simply just hacked in, but here it is in all it's messy glory ;) Have fun guys :) newbe5 & Corvus Wow - thanks guys! This is very speedy work! I'll test it out now, and post my results tomorrow. :o
