does anyone know how to root this device, and or have any custom roms for this?
I am sorry if this is on the wrong thread, I couldn't find the right place.

It's already rooted for you.
It just went on sale today so it's a bit early for custom ROMs to show up, but I'm sure they will.

Can you tell me if the company will deliver to Hawaii, I saw on website the U.S. but that doesn't always include us Islanders
Thanks

It comes rooted? That's awesome!
Does it have official Google Market support? The website implies that it does but doesn't say for sure.
What are the prospects for an Ice Cream Sandwich firmware when it's released?

Nice tablet..

I also asked those questions, it does have G market support, and when ice cream sandwich comes out, they will be making an upgrade and will make it available.

Ordered one today, but guess I missed first shipment.

How are these working out for owners? I am considering one as a gift for my daughter... but they are out of stock again.

Seeing as how I manage the Airpad program at X10 I'm hardly impartial. Hopefully someone else can reply too. But about the stock -- We have 3 shipments arriving this week and next week.

Its a shame i don't see anyone trying to port CM7 to this.
I would buy it for sure then

I have to ask why. You haven't even used it, how do you know that the stock firmware isn't great to begin with?

I assume he just really loves CM7

Airpad questions
Does anyne know if the mini-usb is really an On The
Go compatible port, meaning it can act as either client
or host usb port? I have an OTG mini m to a f adapter.
Does it auto recognize it or does it need an app like
the NOOK color?
How does it handle USB host port (a f) flash drive
mount / dismount? Is there built in support or do
you need to issue the commands from an ADB shell
or a terminal shell?
I'm interested in being able to backup all the
partitions (regions), would I just do DD's for each
/dev or is there a tool / app to do that? Something
like clockworkmod recovery's nAndroid backup
/ restore functionality?
Does it boot from the microSDHC like the NOOK
color?
thanks

Kev.. I have a very important customer who fell in love with the Airpad 7 and wanted all his field inspectors to have one. He also ask me to custom develop an app he needs in the field. ALthough I have been a software developer for over 30 years, I have never develop for a device like Airpad. Is there a resource you can point me to for developers? TIA..

If it's already rooted, why doesn't Titanium Backup work? It displays a message that it could not acquire root privileges.
Attempts to use su from a terminal screen yields a message that says that UID 10067 not allowed to su.
So, is it rooted or not?

NO ANDROID MARKET but not horrible
Overall the tablet is pretty good for the price. Just picked one up and am posting from it now. I am VERY disappointed in the lack of the android market and i hate the amazon app store. Limited selection and emails me for every free download because it is a "purchase"(lame).
Good little ereader and web browser. Much more useful with the apps i copied from my other android devices using root explorer. Battery life could be better but as an appliance around the house, we are always close to an outlet so it isnt a concern for how we are using it.
The gTablet with CM7 is still my primary tablet for on the go. It is heavier and more cumbersome than the airpad but having my google services is more important on the go.
I will primarily be using this tablet for my home automation controller, at least until cm# is ported or they give me android market access

Hi Kevin. Quick question on airpad. I'm in BC Canada and can't get amazon.com on this device and I also can't get access to the android market. All I want is access to a netflix app for streaming to my TV. I managed to download the slideme app store but they don't carry netflix. Any ideas? Thanks rgk123

Is there going to be a CR-48 forum created

I see we have a Galaxy tablet forum so why not a Chrome OS forum?
The only hack I know of is to type in about_flags in the omni box and it will open up some experimental labs.
I'd like to find out how to get it to play music from my network or is there an app for that at the Google store?
You signed up and got one?

I did sign up (a few times lol) and received one on 12-21-2010. I'm loving it =D
I got one and because I am having issues with the Verizon setup along with the 100MB cap I rooted my EVO so I could use wireless tethering. I might get around to messing with the Verizon setup or just hope an update fixes it. But 100MB will be easy to blow through. I guess as a backup it might be worth it.
Other than that it is a nice device. But it is strictly a browser. So any games need to be based out there in the cloud. But I am going to try to push myself to use it more so I can break my dependence on app like Office and Quicken.
There is a jailbreak switch under the battery that supposedly will open it up for whatever you want. But I've seen Win 7 run on an ATOM and it sucks. So I'll keep this thing stock until I see some ROM or whatever they would be called come out of XDA.
i also have a cr-48 and have some questions - like how to mount my android and have the cr-48 recognize it.

[Q] Is there a reason to Root a Xoom?

Have my Xoom WiFi pre-ordered and delivery is supposed to be next week. I am coming from a Viewsonic G-Tablet (will still have two of them, just I won't be using) where the ONLY way to make use of them is by rooting and installing a third-party ROM.
With the Xoom, it seems like rooting it is more of an intellectual exercise than something that would make a big difference in day to day use. Is there something I'm missing?

Given Google's announcement about the HC stuff not being released anytime soon, I wouldn't be holding my breath on that.
So basically, the same reasons I might want to do it on my Nexus One. But it's not like the G-Tablet where I'm going to go from hardly acceptable to Notebook replacement is what I'm hearing.
True...as far as deleting apps I delete a ton. The browser, the games, and quick office is just a few. I backup my evo files and bring them over to the xoom (like games).

woa! you deleted the browser? i use opera mostly, but i would sooo not be comfortable doing that. just raised an eyebrow, i'm sure you have your reasons, just never heard of someone doing that. and i've been using/tweaking android for years now.

I use dolphin so i delete it from all my devices Don't need programs that i don't use taking up space i need.
I don't recommend deleting the stock browser, and here is why;
I have a rooted Droid running UD 7.0. It's set up with Sweeter Home, etc,just the way I like it.
When Google Gesture Search came out, I spent days trying to figure out why I couldn't get it to work. I found out by trial & error (and a LOT of restoring ROMs!) that it was because I had deleted the stock browser in favor of Dolphin.
-Prob'ly nuttin, but because of all the unknowns, I expect I'll keep the stock basics until I can do a systematic, controlled delete. Just my 2 sense, err, cents.

dude, on the xoom, how much space do you need? the browser is what 8meg, max? i use other browsers too, just would never delete the stock browser, to each their own.

Agreed.
Not to mention its worth it for the overclock alone. I have not noticed a change in battery life, and in terms of heat the dual core runs around 90 tops under heavy use.
These threads are useless, this Guy has a rooted device and knows what functions root already does. Why is he asking us what we will do with it when he already knows. Someone says removed crapware, then he gives an argument. Someone says overclock or custom then he gives another argument. C'mon man you already know what root brings, just determine if you need it or not because everyone's needs and wants are different.

Just to clarify, I have a couple of rooted Viewsonic G-Tablets. I haven't rooted my Xoom yet because:
A) I haven't got it yet (3/29 according to UPS)
B) It looks like it's a more complicated procedure at this point since there isn't native SD Card support
So I was trying to decide whether rooting was necessary (which it very much is on the G-Tablets), or just something desirable. And in the latter case, if there's something that would let me do that I would really miss.
At this point it sounds like there are three things I give up by not rooting, and the only one of those I don't have an acceptable workaround for is the overclocking. But I didn't want to hijack my own thread by starting a discussion on that, and so have been following the thread about OC instead.
FWIW...
Only reason I rooted my xoom was for the ability to play movies stutter free directly from my net shares...other than that no other reason...doesn't need to be overclocked and not really in to the custom rom game.

What player are you using? I assume you needed the CIFS support for this?
yes Cifs from the market. Using rockplayer until vplayer releases support for the Xoom.
I had a Viewsonic on Saturday (returning it monday) and i tried all the custom roms, but the main issue is the terrible display, i found not only do you need hold it in front of you, it still wasnt perfect until you held it on a weird angle. Even for 339.00 it's not worth it. I liked the USB port on it but it's ready to go back to the store tommorow. The Xoom screen is much much better (I had them both next to each other all day trying to justify). Heck, i might bring both back and just keep my Nook Color.. Time will tell... Battery life with the Tiamat kernal was about 9 hours but i started it at 72%.

I am having the same thoughts myself.
I jailbroke all my iphones, I've rooted all my android devices, but, for some reason, I am not anxious to root the xoom
I think once sd card support comes, and, when there are MORE rom/kernel choices, it might be more desirable to do it.
for trouble free viewing of hd videos, just rip with handbrake, or a similar program and watch them with Vital player..

U do know that is system space and you cant access it, right? thats not good and can cause the system to become unstable. Its space you will never see or be able to use so leave it. Get an app that hides apps from your tray and your problem solved ina safe manner..but hey, to each his own.

I couldnt agree more. I use handbrake for ripping also and I also don't see any current use in rooting a Xoom. Movies play crystal clear..Battery life is 9hours..
I just think some people are never satisfied..lol..like we're spoiled brats.
Im interested in the process but people are tweaking and reaching like this beast of a tablet isnt dual core and on the lastest version of android.
This is a Xoom and not a G1..lol...Not yelling..just made a point that we are never content until we brake some ****.
Google doesnt want the OEM using and skinning their **** anymore..atleast without that licensing/kiss our Google,rich ass Fee..so they probably wont release Honeycomb until 2012 I hear anyway.
So in theory u guys are holding your breath for a Dragons fart.

I just got the Samsung Galaxy S 4G from T-mobile
as a free upgrade - I didn't even know what an APP was much less
an Android os. In any event it came with froyo and I ugraded to
Gingerbread 2.3.6 -
I was wondering why I was not getting anywhere with T-Mobil and Samsung
support = now I know I had to find out from my Bank y there mobile app would
not work = phone needs current android OS. Will Android 4.1 work on /B]my phone and where do I get it?
Apparently Samsung is not coming forth as they have Galaxy S 3 coming out
PLEASE DO NOT DELETE -
No... It wont. If the app doesn't work with your phone most likely it's just not supported on your device.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using Tapatalk
That's very strange that an app wouldn't work for 2.3.6 and only ICS, but no, you can not get Ice Cream Sandwich on your device, as it is not out for the device. If it were to be supported on your device though, it would upgrade in the same manner that you went from Froyo to Gingerbread. I hope this helps.
Thanks guys for the feedback
What bank app is it? All ones I know of work with 2.2 and above so maybe you've been misinformed?

Welcome, I'm a newbie too, as well as a bit of a stranger to Android (I've always had a Blackberry until a few months ago).
*brofist*
Unfortunately, Samsung (and many other manuf) is pretty bad about releasing Android updates for its devices. If you want a newer version, you will have to root it. If you are ready to learn and get frustrated at times then visit this link about your device:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_4G
I recommend becoming very intimate with the steps and reading up on if your device can be un-bricked before starting.
just looked at link and read part of it will finish tomorrow thanks
for the link
Everyone has been a noob some day so for you to star i would recomend you to visit freeyourandroid.com and start watching their wiki and some simple things...after that go to your phone dev section and learn a little bit of it....then root it with the easiest way out there(there are always like 3 ways)...after a week with root try to install a ROM or a kernel or a modem...something easy!! and for your samsung device always see if the part your going to flash is for your device so you dont get a $400 bucks toy
here are my ¢2 cents of help remember to always thank every guy who gives you an answer and welcome
Sent from my €PΩ 4G TØU©H
Since this app has become reason enough to research, have you considered trading out the device for a newer model with T-mobile? May have to shell out some cash, but there are benefits to trading up if you're so inclined.
I had a quick look on Virtual Wallet by PNC from the Market and based from the reviews, it looks like you're not the only one having issue with that app. There's a developer webpage so maybe have a quick look if they are planning to update the app or email them.
Also as linearstream have mentioned, have a good read on that wiki to understand more about your phone. I did the same thing when I started rooting/modding my phone about a month ago. Believe me it's all worth it
I will do thank you
Can't afford right now but will keep as a option - tx for the feedback

Hi everyone, I'm a newbie to smartphones. Just got myself an Xperia Play 800i.
You won't be able to run ICS stock, but you may want to check Cyanogenmod and see if your device is under the supported list and see if they are developing and ICS rom for your phone. You may want to get someone a little more technologically advanced to see if they can flash your phone to ICS. I would not recommend doing it yourself as it may result in bricking your phone, or just a lot of frustration and getting no where.

[In Progress] Hacking the Optimum App for Kindle Fire

Cablevision recently released the full Optimum app with streaming capabilities, but it has only been released for the Kindle Fire. Since the Kindle Fire runs Android, it should be possible for the application to run on any other Android device. This thread will be the attempt at modding the Optimum application to work with all Android devices (2.3+).
Optimum App Download:http://www.mediafire.com/?169999r49rv15q9
Currently Known:
Application asks for root upon opening
Some devices can open and run the app successfully, but must log in and out every use. If not, data must be cleared for every use.

I have tried on my CM9 Evo and CM9 Iconia A500, and in both instances the application works (sometimes I have to wipe data, sometimes it works flawlessly).
The point of this is to modify the application itself, without touching the device files, making it work with almost any version of Android (Gingerbread and up because that is the Kindle Fire version).
So far, I haven't come up with much in the past few days. I'm still looking though.
Also, my thoughts on Cablevision:
I think Cablevision is actually one of the "good guys". They have cheap plans, fantastic service, and they really do want to help their customers. Their TV service is great, and it offers a lot of fantastic channel choices. The Internet is really good, as I always get at least 25 up/down with very low ping (I do enjoy gaming).
I don't like the fact that they haven't come out with a streaming application for Android yet, but it is obvious that they are making progress. I do like watching TV on my laptop, and it is nice to know that I can watch it on an iOS device if I ever get one again. The fact that they have an application for an Android device just shows that they are very close to a full Android release.
I changed buildprop values to resemble kindle fire. It didnt work on my SGS3 stock ICS neither on my toshiba thrive stock ICS

Nice to hear! I love working for them. I used to work at Comcast but I lived in cable vision territory so I thought why not do the same job and get free service lol. They are definitely putting for effort in trying to offer the same experience for both iOS and android. I've been bugging them since I started and I might pursuit the development side. Maybe I can find out more when I am back in on monday .
Any chance to get it working on an "ASUS Infinity"
I would try to help you guys out but all I have is a Kindle Fire.

Sorry for not update everyone. In this case, no news is bad news. I got very frustrated with working with the app on Thursday, so I will resume my work on Monday. So far, I have made no progress. I will start to reach out to some actually successful application modifiers soon to get some real help if I can't figure it out myself.
Thanks for being so patient.

[Q] Root for Asus Fonepad

Hey Guys
I have bought the asus Fonepad which so far is a great device.
But i can´t find any information onn the internet on how to root it.
Could you use a general root for the padfone or do i have to wait for
a special root.
Thank you
I got my Fonepad this morning and its nice, but it needs some developer love to be my daily driver for more than a couple of weeks.
You cant count me in for at least $50 towards the cost of a device if a developer wanted to take it on.

I've on this device for cluple of days and it's really a kind of device with great potentials. The screen is nice with good density and the connectivity are all in. The telephony features is unique for this kind of device and the best part is it's running on Intel, I know developers can do wonders on this device and not to forget the price is very affordable. The kernel source code are available at asus website.
So dev's let's start the exciting work and really I need to root my device ASAP.
Thanks for the reading.

Tested it on the fonepad. Doesn't work. The shell doesn't show up after booting. Also after "Restore my data" the script doesn't recognize that the restore is done. I have to power off the device manually.
Up to now I haven't found a solution on the net to get root access. I want to use the fonepad with USB OTG to controll a DSLR. If this isn't possible I have to sell it again
I've ordered it and I'm waiting for the device, I hope that will be opened a dedicated forum!
Coming from P1000 that was kept alive still today with 4.2.2 by amazing developers. I hope this will too.
I got one too
I have had mine for a week now and am finding the performance to be a bit sluggish, but not too bad. The total package is quite nice. However, we need to be able to root it to get the most out of it. I will contribute as well.
How much?
Hi guys, just curious how much you bought the Fonepad for and if anyone using it on T-Mo? If so, what speed are you getting with the HSDPA?
Thanks!
Edit #1: I'm blind, PERLMANE is on T-Mo. What data speeds are you getting?
Edit #2: Oh and can you side loan Flash Player so viewing of websites with Flash content? I read somewhere saying since it's X86 that Flash Player won't work, though I couldn't understand why not.

I got the same error message when I tried to install Firefox. I looked at the Firefox release notes and it says Firefox does not support Android running on an Intel chip. I had not realised this was going to be a big limitation.
I hope asus fonepad get some love from dev soon. Lot of potential in these phablet. Intel has some software compatibility but seems makes up in battery life.

I am getting good speeds on T-Mobile. While it says "H", it is clearly delivering H+ speeds consistently over 5m download and close to 3m upload. This is much faster (almost double) that of the H+ speeds I was getting from AT&T.
As for Flash, I could install it, but that effort was not worthwhile since it does not seem to work with any browser.
Asus Fonepad USA Fedex asking FCC Form
I ordered from Taiwan for delivery to USA.
Fedex called and says they need FCC form 740 and it asks for FCC Id. Otherwisea they say it will not clear custom. How do people get this into USA? Has Fonepad passed FCC requirements?
Not sure how I can proceed...

That form is supplied by the shipper. The same thing happened to me, but it was resolved immediately without issue.
Did you guys try motochopper? It might work...

It fails to install SuperUser Binaries. Perhaps the Intel Atom chipset has something to do with this failure to exploit for root.
