[Q] Anyone here use "myzine"? - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was just looking at "myzine"; the widget that I've never used.....
Anyone use it and can fill me in on why I'd want to use it?
It doesn't seem very customizable....the pictures are not choosable, nor is much of anything else...
What do you think? what am i missing here?

Yeah it's pretty sucky. I mean not being able to choose the folder you want to appear is a big minus...I mean we got other pictures on the tablets besides our children's pictures if you know what I mean!
Oh and the fact that this thing crashes constantly is why I don't use it at all.

MyZine is garbage, as are most of the ASUS included apps.

The email app is nice

The MyCloud app is nice. Ok, let me rephrase. The app sucks, but having unlimited cloud space rocks.
To prevent OT, yes the MyZine is crap.

I like myLibrary
myNet is handy
myCloud is handy.
email app is handy.
all the other Asus widgets are handy.
Sorry if one widget doesn't appease your tastes.

I'm new here as I just got a Transformer prime. My first ever Android device and I'm impressed!
And, I like Myzine.
It works for me, although I'm up here trying to find tips on customizing it. I guess it does have some shortcomings. Still I like it.
Perhaps it will improve a bit when Ice Cream Sandwich arrives?

Motorola Xoom Honeycomb 3.0 ROM for G Tablet?

Any chance of porting the Honeycomb 3.0 ROM from the Xoom to the G Tablet? Similar chipset (Tegra) and specs....
hopefully
I think we will see it before to long!
I would guess shortly after someone gets their hands on a xoom.
Asked and answered many times. please use the search.

It's insane to me that people just can't seem to understand how forums work... Read first, post second. You are now the latest in a long line of people that have asked the exact same question. I'm not trying to bust balls here, but if you actually want the answer to your question a quick forum search would have done the job. Instead we have a useless thread....

Source Code should be coming soon
Since Moto wanted to keep the XOOM as legendary as possible (The UBER Official First Tab with a Honeycomb ROM) I say we should see a system dump/source dump coming juuuuuuust a little bit after that.

Not to perpetuate this lame thread, BUT this is a good place for my question, I suppose. Don't you all think that Motorola is going to lock down the Xoom pretty tight? I don't know much about porting a new ROM, but I'm guessing it's not going to be a slam dunk.

Hey Robeet, exactly what is it you need from the Zoom? I work for a little companey that I will have the device in my hands shortly to play with. Anything I can do to help will be more than happy. Im not sure how to do a dump, but tell me what you need and I will do my best.

Has anyone taken the system images from the SDK and tried to cwm them onto the gtab?
I'll be trying this today..
The reason why I'm not too worried is,
1. CWM Backups are your friend!
2. Honeycomb was designed for the Tegra2 proc right? Xoom = T2 proc.. so most of the drivers should work, hopefully. (except the sd card, camera, etc..)
3. I didn't pay for my Gtab..
EDIT: Ok.. that didn't go so well. Reboot loop.. trying a new boot.img

Go to notioninkhacks.com they are close to having a rom they need two files. There isa post on front page read it andcontact them.
Forget the Xoom port, I want the Honeycomb AOSP. CM usually gets them earlier than anyone so I'm assuming a CM Honeycomb base will come out two weeks after the Xoom gets released. After the Honeycomb base, then Roebeet, Rothic, Gojimi, and (fingers crossed) Bekit can start cooking!
CM doesn't get access to AOSP earlier than anyone else. Android Open Source Project is what AOSP means and is available whenever Google releases the source to open source and pushes it to androids github repository.
Once the " Honeycomb" branch is pushed we can start seeing real progress...though proper drivers also need to be released from nvidia.
I suspect a Xoom port will be available before an AOSP built rom is.

The images from the sdk are built for the emulator and not the tegra 2 CPU...that is a big reason why it hasn't been "ported" already like it was for the nook color.

[Q] What are you looking forward to in ICS for the Transformer?

We've got a bunch of great ROMs out and many are ICS themed. And ICS seems like a bigger update for phones than it does for tablets anyway. So then, what do you hope for in an ICS release for our Transformers (besides for CM9 )?

I know I'm asking too much but would love 1080p recording and playback.
I also hope they fix the hdmi panasonic plasma issue fixed here by clemsyns kernel.
new style, new features, new market,
maybe faster and optimized.
but most for a browser which is fast, has no keyboard input lag, and handles the dock well with german language
Most important to me:
1) Fix conection to Panasonic plasma via HDMI
2) Create folders on home screen without any launcher
how about no crashes... my browser will close without FC message on random pages.
what i am most looking forward to it is coming out and these anticpation threads drying up!!
That some apps that block HC will now be supported.

This isn't really an anticipation thread. I was genuinely curious as to what people are looking out for because it doesn't seem like ICS will bring very much change to what we currently have.
I have read that ICS will finally bring cisco ipsec to android which i am eagerly awaiting.
I am also hoping the javascript engine on the browser will be improved to make browsing better and quicker.
other than that i just want some more RTS games to be released for android.

I'm looking forward to a significantly faster browser (according to early reports), and the ability to kill tasks without needing to install a third-party app to do so. (Now we just need a way to prevent tasks being automatically killed when not in the foreground.)
I want a browser without keyboard lag.
the keyboard lag, is that when characters with accents pop out of nowhere?
I think it may have to do with the rendering or something. Opera Mobile seems to basically stick in a native widget, usually looks wrong but works; the stock browser otoh seems to do it like a desktop browser would.

Android 4.1 Jelly Bean

It seems Jelly Bean is rollin' out soon :fingers-crossed: When would Infinity receive this version? Or should we wait and get the Infinity already installed with this version?
http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/27/jelly-bean-android-4-1-revealed-by-google/
nice. guess i will hold on to my xoom for a while, but im still getting the infinity.
I personally refused to hold my breath and got the Infinity yesterday (me = lucky bastard). Here in Holland, only the 64 GB version will be released initially, by the way.
I don't know what the splendid chefs in here will come up with, but based on my experiences with my SGS2 and all the custom ROMs I've tried on it, I'd prefer most of their cuisine to ASUS' mainstream cooking any day. I like the stock ROM enough to let it be for a while, but I'm going to root it this afternoon, if possible. I need my TB...
I can wait too get one. I will have to root it as soon as possible. I can't live without TB. It is so much easier than waiting on Google or reinstalling manually

Well Asus usually is pretty quick with updates, and they've already been working with the Nexus 7, so they're familiar with the code for it. I'd expect them to have a Jelly Bean update out within a month.

Hi dskw, sorry for not replying that quickly. I must've missed your reply.
I used the process referenced in this thread: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1706588
Make sure you have killed off Asus Sync (under WIndows, CTRL-ALT-DEL and End Process). It will interfere to the point of plain inhibition. ' Ot of the box, I couldn't get root acces, but I installed Superuser and Busybox from the Play Store and all was fine. Other than that, all went smoothly for me. Have been running root now for a few days, so at least it is effective and stable.
ADDITION: make sure to try out the sio scheduler swap-out as well. It is one of the main reasons to root the TF700 at the moment, since it does make a (slight) improvement on throughput overall. I will try and find the reference for that procedure as well and post it here, but I'm on a busy train now and people are starting to look at me with this funny look on their faces. :S

Never mind, I did the rooting on my own with the same method.
But the scheduler swap-out is indeed interesting!
I've looked into VoltageControl but it seems like the stock firmware comes only with the noop scheduler.
And next time the people on the train look funny tell them:
YES, it is NOT an Apple! Believe it or stop starring!

You'll need both the app and the scheduler itself, but both are available from the first thread. Have fun!

I called Best Buy about two weeks ago to inquire about preorder and the lady started rattling off the specs as she saw them on the screen in front of her. Everything sounded on point so I feel like I can trust the accuracy of her information. What caught my attention was when she said "Jelly Bean". I stopped her and said "Wait, what?". She explained that her info read that the 700 was supposed to have ICS but had "Just changed, and now it's showing Android Jelly Bean for this tablet when it goes on sale". She was sure of this and even doublechecked her data to confirm.
We might see a very welcome update early next week, folks. I wouldn't be surprised.
aaawk, somehow it does not sound real for me.
Next week?
I hope so... but i dont belive it.
Prayyyyyyy....

Jelly Bean won't solve any of the real problems right (e.g. IO), because those are most likely related either to the kernel and/or hardware?

Well the nexus 7 "which is also made by ASUS and is also tegra 3" is using the updated 3.1 kernel. So its possible that they got it working on the Infinity as well...

Chameleon Beta

Finally got my registration code for the Chameleon Beta - was so excited to try it out - but it simply crashes as soon as I run it... Tried rebooting, re-installing, etc - no go.
Anyone else able to run it on their TF700?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using Tapatalk 2
Hey!
I've got my chameleon today, too. It didn't crash but it was not responding for some time (pressed Wait) and it went through.
Pretty dissapointed i must say. Can't really consider this a beta release. More like alpha
It is VERY slow. Some parts are clearly not optimized for infinity. Weather widget doesn't scale correctly. Mail only shows unread mail, and as i am considered a mail ninja, i pretty much don't see anything there (i have my inbox cleaned and read). I am not interested in Instagram, Twitter, so other currently available widgets are not of any use for me.
Anyway, I really hope it gets better with further releases, specially for tablets with high resolution.
Currently, in a state as is, can't beat my Apex launcher, or any other for that matter.
Can you post some visuals (screenshot)?
Hey,
I have just tried to snap some screens, but I do not have nerves for this. It is just too slow.
Before I am able to add an account and such, I can run around my house, make a coffe and maybe smoke one...
I don't know, maybe there's something wrong with my current environment, which is kinda bloated right now, but Apex runs buttery smooth, so i don't think so. The funny thing is, transitions from one screen to another, scrolling inside widget (tried only one and weather), app drawer - they are really smooth - but adding a widget - OMG. I can't do it, sorry.
Maybe with next release or if someone else has more luck or patience.
I would *love* to try this, but no matter what I do, it just crashes instantly.
Are you rooted? Unlocked? Just trying to figure out what I can't get it to run at all...
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T using Tapatalk 2
Rooted, but not unlocked.
To those who have it running but report that it's really slow: have you tried forcing 2D hardware rendering?
I imagine due to the resolution of the TF700 display, anything not coded to use hardware rendering will be impossible to run at any usable speed.
OK, I have tried your suggestion.
It gets a bit better, but when it comes to the keyboard and typing, still too slow.
They said they will update app every week, so i hope we'll get some better builds soon.

Just curious - are you on .26 firmware or a previous version? I was reading a review and they said that it quit working after they upgraded to .26 firmware. Just curious what version you were running....
Thanks.

Yes, the latest one - .26
Pretty sure they'll fix it sooner than later
I have it running. Yes is slow, i use force hw 2d, but is not impossible to play with. Impossible as a daily launcher to, unless you want to feel like your in matrix bullet time...
Lack of widgets is also a shame for a beta, but those that are there work as id hoped!

If memory serves, they closed their kickstart and reopened it because of someone leaving the company or whatever. Is that kickstart still open? I wouldn't mind kickin some money over to be part of the alph/beta/prerelease, whatever they want to call this mess. I really like the direction they are trying to go with this.
You can still be able to get prelase from their website. It costs 10CAD though. Not sure how much it was when in kickstart phase.

I was a Kickstarter supporter, and I also received my "Golden Ticket" yesterday. Installed it on my Infinity and started playing around with it. First, as everyone states, there are precious few widgets at the moment - News, Weather, Gmail, Twitter (can't remember if there are any others). News has a limited number of sources, none of which I regularly read. Weather is OK, but you can get that in a million different ways at the moment. Gmail shows unread only. I don't use Twitter - I have an account, but no desire.
Performance-wise, it is slow but then this is an early beta. There is just no way this could be used at the moment for your launcher. How you edit the panels you put on the screen is not intuitive - I found myself going back to some of their demo videos to try to figure out how they were doing things. I tried to set up a time-change screen, but the event was never triggered so the screen never changed.
I am happy to see a released version, but I would have been far happier to have waited for something a little more fully-realized. At the moment, there is no published API or anything which might allow me to look at developing a widget of my own (yes, I know it is a beta, but when you are a small company, you might want to get other developers on your side enhancing your product). This may be a month or two away from establishing a base level of functionality that would make it a lower end competitor of other launchers.
I like where this appears to be going, but I wish they would have waited on the release until there is substance. I will check back in on Chameleon in a few weeks, but I am not sure when or even if this might be ready for actual use.

The Chameleon team has stated that this is a known bug and what you have to do is simply reboot your tablet, if that does not work then uninstall the app, reboot, re-install and activate and then reboot again.

you do know that this is a PRE-Beta and not a Beta. Tekinson states clearly that is a very very very buggy version. There will be a API when its Beta and also this version is a trimmed down version none the less. If you watch the videos you will see that they have more widgets and more options then our build. Basically they want to test their launcher on every device out there.. and what better way then to have the community that wants the launcher test it for them and give them their own feedback.
I think its genius personally.

I agree 1000%. This app has amazing potential and I am sure that once beta, and then the official final release comes out, we will see a big difference. It pisses me off that so many people don't read the info, and have been giving a low star rating in GPlay.

Hmm, I just tried those things and it still crashes instantly... Do you have a link to where this is discussed - I'd like to read through it myself.
Obviously, it's not a huge deal (not big enough to make me restore to factory defaults and try again), since it's really not ready for "daily" use, but I still would like to at least try it out on my TF700....
Thanks!

I'm on .26 and rooted and unlocked. If you reboot and turn on "Use 2D hardware acceleration in applications" in the developer options, it should work. I was having the same problem until I did this.

It shouldnt be too much longer and there is truthfully not much difference between each and you can flash back and forth without a problem.

LOL! Once it's gone online, it's out there somewhere.
Sincerely though: sbdags and CROMI-X are not exactly hard to find in here, but I've had quite a few cases of minor threads that I lost sight of and subsequently could not find my way to again. It's great if you can have alternative routes available.
Oh, and sbdags/Darren: although I admire your dedication and handiwork on CROMI-X,which would make some people ask you to allow them to have your baby/babies, I presume the latter is a biological impossibility (and will remain so for some time to come unless my colleagues stumble onto something). That may be the better for both of us in several respects, one of them being the fact that I do not feel enticed to stalking you.

I'll take that as a compliment then. I think.
