Hallo, I received my tablet two days ago, and I found that there is a new revision of PCB inside, V1.3. (Thread: req: 3 pcs of ZT-180 from EU to Czech Republic ).I don't know differences between V1.2 or V1.2A, but probably there are some :]. For example, I found that battery is maybe stronger, there are 2x 2000mAh cells.Some pictures:

Part two, because limitation of four pictures in post :/ ..

That's the same as mine.And the same battery too.The only difference I see is on the wifi module (there is no 3110 on it).Did you have issues with the video brightness control?Some photos.Wifi module.IMAG0064 | Flickr - Photo Sharing!Chipset.IMAG0065 | Flickr - Photo Sharing!Motherboard revisionIMAG0059 | Flickr - Photo Sharing!I'm not a good photographer........................Read you soon.remote

Hi, can you explain to me, what "video brightness control" is? Maybe then I can check it for you :] ..

 

[remote]

Just if you can dim the brightness of the screen. I cannot. The screen is always at the highest level of brightness. And this happens using the system controls in preferences or using any widgets.............Read you soon.RemoteSent from my HTC Wildfire using Tapatalk

No, I don't have this problem, I can control brightnes level via Beautiful Brightness or Power Control.

FYI, brightness control works fine on my tablet too using the power control widget.

Try reflash ROM first, it could help :] ..

 

[remote]

reflashed a lot of time, nothing changed.I've contacted the dealer, the will let me know.The problem, I think, is that a lot of companies assemble Zenithink clones and maybe there are little differences in hardware components.I'll try to understand how to set a different brightness level during boot time.Mine seems to be set at 102%! bah...any suggestion will be welcome..........................read you soonremote

[quote name='The Omen;54317]FYI' date=' brightness control works fine on my tablet too using the power control widget.[/QUOTE'] How do you control brightness with power control widget? I have on or off on the brightness (which doesn't do anything). Am I being an ID 10 T?

 

[fvalica]

My Power Control widget cycles through 3 settings: 10%, 30%, and 100% (all guesses).Just before I posted this I couldn't get it to cycle though. I had just restarted the tablet, and I think my task killer may have interfered with a process. The widget would not change from 100% until I quit the task killer.

Did you get any joy from your dealer Remote? I'm getting eye burn reading off this ...

I think the screen timeout not going to zero brightness is an issue with certain boards, I know my ZT-180 Ruby 1.2 tablet does go totally dark when in screen timeout (yes with Android 2.1, all the ROMs up to and including 1030), the only problem I have is that the battery doesn't seem to work so I don't know how much battery life total darkness adds, I have my tablet always plugged in for the last 8 weeks.

 

[Jimbo_Bats]

the only problem I have is that the battery doesn't seem to work.

Have to say mines starting to fade too - I use it daily and flatten it from "full" pretty much every day. Noticeable lack of longevity - time for the battery hack I think. Mind if I ask how old your MID is?

I got mine on 7/28/2010 and have probably flashed it at least 80 times.

hi all,
See if you can help and pardon me for my English.
I had a problem in the Ruby-V1.3 Zenithink board and named the FB27 component that is a little above the battery connector has broken me and no it was not their value, to see if any of you it means and what you can tell me to fix the plate.
Thanks and regards.
