Roger,I was able to get root access without any issues using your rom. I just used the adb connect ip:5555 && adb shellthen if I su it prompts me to allow or deny on the slatedroid. hit always allow and everything seems to be good
I think google has to be set-up directly after firmware install in order for market to work (or more specifically the software that asks you to set-up a google account).. Can u extract that into your script from another firmware?
I'm really, really, really pleased with your FW!!! I tried one of your earlier versions and I had troubles connecting to the PC, but now with 1.1.0 I don't have this problem anymore
This FW is even faster that Slatedroid 1.3! It's very good! Keep up the good work!
Thanks Im glad its working better for you now The 1.9.0 base is so much better than the existing Eken releases anyway and so a lot of the changes for the better are already done, Im just trying to get other bits fixed.
[quote name='Roger Calver;38006]usrinit.sh isnt in the SDK 1.9.0 ROM' date=' Ive added it back in to my test ROM and swap works but you have to enable it at each boot [IMG]http://www.slatedroid.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif[/IMG][/QUOTE'] Can u enable in the root_fs during flash?
Never thought of setting up a paypal for donations, Im no coder and all Ive done is wanted to get the most out of my M001 and found that to my surprise others have liked it.Ive been playing around with swapper ATM its not perfect I still want it to be automatic but its easier then going into terminal and typing.The google part is complex and I need to do some serious research into the ins and out of it all, I hope that the real devs can come in and help out if possible.
I just found out there is no Google Talk nor GMail application
I really need them (I both this tablet only because I needed to be able to check my mail everywhere). I tried to download apks from the net, but they do not want to install
so am i to take it that 1.1.0 is rooted and i dont have to do anything else to it or are there more steps to the process after i load this firmware? im new to rooting this. also i have your 1.9 firmware and its the best i tried so far... good work. i have my youtube working, slide me 2 and app store. thanks
