[ROM] Flytouch2 Froyo [Stragulus]

Froyo NAND ROM for Flytouch2 by Stragulus
Video demonstrating how to flash the tablet after having created the bootable SD-card: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=47kf4-Vbba8#t=3
RELEASE NOTES
Please provide feedback if things work, or do not work for you.
If it eats your tablet, don't blame me. I deem it low-risk though, if it fails you can reflash it using burntool or another bootable sd-card just like before.
INSTALLATION
Installation is slightly different from normal releases because it requires flashing in 2 steps. Luckily, it's really easy:
1. Download bootable SD-card image and unzip: http://www.mediafire.com/?4quqzqyce9eje7a
2. Write image to an SD-card that's at least 1GB in size using WinHex:
Get WinHex here: http://www.winhex.com/winhex/
In WinHex: tools, disk tools, clone disk
Choose file from zip (sdcard.img)
Choose the sd card as your destination
Start sector: fill in 0, also make sure the directories are correct on left
When finished, take out the card.
In linux, you just unzip the file and use dd to write it to the sd-card:
Code:
dd if=/path/to/sdcard.img of=/dev/sdX # (where sdX is your scsi disk device, check dmesg)
3. Turn off tablet and put sd-card in TOP slot (between the 2 usb ports).
4. Turn on tablet. It will report that it is booting off the sd-card, and that it's flashing kernel + filesystems.
5. Take out the sd-card when the tablet asks you to do so (takes less than a minute). Put it in the OTHER sd-card slot (bottom one), and reboot the tablet by holding down the power for 10 seconds to turn it off, then press it again to turn it on.
6. You will now see the tablet booting with a *GREEN* screen. The screen will flash twice to indicate it's starting. The flashing itself will take longer than in the previous step, a few minutes. If succesful, it will automatically reboot, after which you're done and you're booting the new firmware! You'll see a different boot screen (equalizer on a black background)
7. After it has booted and you have unlocked the screen, reboot the tablet first thing! First boots in android always tend to be behave erratically. This is unrelated to this firmware and applies to all Android setups.
If step 6 fails (which is very unlikely), it will stay on the green screen and it will keep on flashing the screen. In that case, you'll have to turn it off. Most likely problem for this is a corrupt SD-card. See troubleshooting below.
Make sure to never put that sd-card back in the top-slot without erasing it first, as it will reflash your tablet!
TROUBLESHOOTING
The 'green screen' keeps flashing!
The installer will dump a text file on the root of the sd-card which you can inspect. The file is called fail_reason.txt. If no such file exists, things are seriously wrong and the tablet couldn't even properly write to the sd-card. If using another SD-card, or rewriting the SD-card doesn't help, please upload the fail_reason.txt file here.
Flashing was succesful, but the system doesn't boot up!
The installer dumps one or more text files on the root of your sd-card during the 'green screen' flashing stage. Upload all these files and link to them here.
TODO
Find out why some users can't get past the android boot animation despite seemingly succesful flashing
Rewrite instructions for creating the sdcard @ windows
Figure out why Titanium Backup doesn't work
(**) Tested:
wifi, ethernet port
battery status works, g-sensor works
touchscreen works (precalibrated, you cannot recalibrate it using the settings app)
HD video playback works (I recommend Meridian player)
Market works (full)
angry birds works ( thought I'd mention it )
The firmware has already been rooted! You can connect using adb over wifi, and type 'su' to become root. Find your IP address using the Android System Info app.
GPS confirmed

You can look up the specs here.

Just got one yesterday, and so far I would say it is a very nice unit.
Everything is very responsive compared to other android tablets I have tried.
The book reader is very nice, and the video player is great. Played a 900mb divx movie without a hitch.
Market works good on this unit also.
My only problem is that when I try to run the system update.apk that came on the unit it asks for a license. A 20 digit code. If I select register later it will not allow for update check because it says it is an unincorporated device.
Like I said earlier market works fine, have downloaded several apps.
I even tried the market fix for the Zenithink ZT-180 from this forum hoping if I inserted a new androidID I could check for updates. No luck.
Any ideas?
Do you know where I can find updates and roms for this unit on the internet?
I got the system update.apk from the root and thought maybe I could check somehow where it was pointing the tablet to look for the updates. Is this possible?
I am currently running dory-r2.1.925 and kernel 2.6.32.9 [email protected] #1

Nice to hear! Your problem with the license-code is a known issue, many people have that problem. Just ignore for it now, the manufacturer said their will be a new ROM which doesn't ask for it.

Thanks for providing a resource for this machine.
Will the rom updates be posted here when they are made available or can you direct me to the manufacturers website, as I can not update via the system update app?

ROM's will be posted here, but those websites are:
Gome www.gome.com.cn
InfoTM www.infotmic.com.cn
As soon as there is a new ROM, i will update this topic.

Just ordered one. I sent back my broken ZT-180 and they are sending me a discounted FT2. A few questions:
1) The ZT-180 didn't have a true sleep mode. Does this?
2) The ZT-180 only has a 3-Axis accelerometer, making it useless for apps and games that use the g-sensor (it just has screen rotation). How's this one?
3) How's the battery compare? The last one was terrible.
4) Does it seem faster? Slower? Same?

It's already shipped, so I get it in 3 days. But maybe 'cjadams51' can provide this info sooner.

It's a bit of an odyssey to order one here in Germany, but I started collecting material and info related to the FlyTouch2:
onderka.com/inhalt/gome-flytouch2-android-tablet/
The system/board-codename is "Emma", and I'm so curious how development of this thingy will turn out.

On this site that sells the FT2, I asked the following and got answers:
Does the g-sensor work in games, or does it just have auto-rotation?
Does it have a sleep mode?
Administrator yes, it can play g-sensor games.
yes, it has sleep mode also.
Thanks

That's strange, because the same page lists the following specification:
gravity sensor
3 direction

And 3 axes = no games

Anyone got some informations about of there will be a constant firmware improve like the zt-180? And if there maybe release the code

Gsensor works fine in the game labyrith. The screen however when playing this game does not display in full screen mode, only about quarter screen. I assume because it was designed for phone, but gsensor seems as responsive as playing it on my phone. The only draw back to the tablet so far is the battery life could definitely be better. I have not messed with gps that much. I am also trying to get it to work with my 3g mobile broadband card. I have a 595u card from sprint. Would love to be able to plug into usb and have internet on the go.
Any suggestions to get this going. When I plug in it is not reconized in the 3g settings.
Really enjoying ebook reader and movie player.
Not sure what you mean by true sleep mode. It does seem to go to sleep (screen turns off) when inactive.
In fact using it now on wifi to browse this forum hoping for rom update.

Well, that could only mean one of two things:
1) It's incorrectly listed as 3-axis.
2) It is what I've suspected all along. That Zenithink, with their 3-axis ZT-180, got it wrong when they blamed it on the g-sensor. The ZT-180 can indeed make use of the g-sensor in games, it's just Zenithink's incompetence that's holding it back.
As for true sleep, the ZT-180 doesn't have one. When it times out, the screen goes darker but there's still some light. It never goes totally black unless the unit is powered off, or dead.

Zap!: It's not one of two things, it must be both things
cjadams51: Can you tell more about the battery life? How many hours can you use it?

The battery life varies of course depending on what your doing. w/ wifi on and surfing maybe 1.5 - 2 hours. As an ebook reader with no wifi over 2 hours.
I am also noticing that the battery gauge is a little sporadic and does not seem always be dependable or accurate. I need to install a battery info app, so I can get a better idea.
The gauge currently reminds me of sometimes when I install a new rom on my mt3g the battery guage seems to be sporadic before it settles down and becomes a more reliable. Still getting a feel for it. It could also be that I am using a little more than I think, I just know that I've gotten hit with the 15% battery warning several times, and it seems like I had not been using it that much.

GS4G Problems Driving me nuts - can someone else confirm these?

I love this phone when it's working. That's WHEN.
Here is a short list of some of the various problems I'm having consistently with the phone. It would be great if anyone else can confirm if these are happening to them. Would be nice to see if this is a problem with the GS4G in general or just with my specific unit. TIA.
1. Wifi sometimes cannot be turned on. Clicking it on will just result in the word error apearing. Nothing more. A reboot will always fix this.
2. Bluetooth will regularly have to be manually connected to the Sync in my Ford and it will arbitrarily disconnect from Sync in the middle of calls. Never had any bluetooth issues with the Ford with my s740 for more than a year. It's not the car.
3. Ringtones and notification sounds magically stop working. They simply act as if they are playing, but don't. vibration does work. Rebooting will always fix this.
4. Google Navigator will only speak to me when it feels like it. It will stop speaking mid route or not speak at all when it doesn't feel like it. No idea how to fix this one. Reboots or restarting the app don't help. It's random.
The good news is GPS on this phone is GREAT. The screen is AMAZING. Most of the time it's pretty fast. It's a bit laggy sometimes thanks to the bloatware I think. I used link2sd and partitioned the memory card. Also the memory card in this phone is CLASS 2!!! I have a Class 6 on order so that should help.
ALL the problems existed prior to partitioning and installing link2sd and pror to rooting so that is not the cause of the trouble. I suspect the problems may be related to the limited rom and ram being overloaded and system processes crashing until reboot. I HOPE it's not defective hardware although I guess I'm still withint the 30 day return period so hope to sort it out and keep it rather than turn it in.

i would try and odin to stock using krylon's post in the dev section. if you do that and you still have these errors... most likely hardware related and you need a new phone. i have zero issues with mine.

I got the same issue when I had my regular Vibrant using Bionix V with the Wifi toggle. Same thing with my Galaxy S 4G. Most of the time I can go into settings and toggle it from there and it will work. Sometimes not. I also use SuperPower App and it turns off the Wifi when the screen is off I think.

only issue I too am having is that my wifi does error out at times as well. It is quite annoying but aside from the rest of the features of the phone it's not a huge deal; especially given that the internet speed top notch and most any connecting to my home system is ran via wan not lan just for comparability reasons when i leave the house.

I've had all those issues.
I hate the lag.
I replaced the 16gig 2 class with my 8gig class 6.
Still lag, and just not very snappy.
This thing is going back this week.

I have all these problems too - both before I rooted and installed link2sd and after.
I really like this phone but am probably going to have to take it back because of these issues.

the original Vibrant had lag, as well. but over a few months... custom roms saved the day. i would stick it out cuz the hardware is pretty awesome. just my two cents.

The only problem I've Had is the WiFi (AP) Froze ON once, and the screen did not want to respond well. Reboot fixed it. That problem happened after uninstalling some apps. I haven't had any problems since. Phone works Good.

I've figured out a couple things. Basically all the problems on the phome seem to be thanks to bad software and bloatware.
1 the wifi refusing to turn on issue. This seems to be caused by the "drive smart (small)" app. Using Android Assistant killing that app allows wifi to turn back on immediately. The app does not always block wifi from starting, but when wifi is not starting, killing this app lets it start. At least on my phome.
2 no sound from navigation apps and other notification sounds not playing. When connecting to my ford sync, there are two bluetooth profiles used. One is the phone profile and one is bt audio. This is normal. Every phone i've had connects both. The problem is that this phone tries to send all audio to the car when it should only be sending phone call audio and media playback to the car. This is not how my old winphone devices behaved. I don't know if this is an android thing or just bad bluetooth software on the gs4g. Sometimes once the car is turned off, the phone still sends all the notification sounds to bluetooth. I know this because when there are no sounds toggling off bt will fix it. The answer was to simply uncheck the bt audio option on the phone for the ford sync connection.
I still have not figured out how to get the phone to stop randomly disconnecting frpm ford sync in the middle of calls or even having to be manually connected to bt devices in the first place. I thonl maube the bt stack in this rom is just really poorly written.

I have issues too with BT auto connecting with a Sony Headset. I would agree that the BT stack is f'ked on this ROM. I have CY6 on my G1 & it never ever had issues with my headset. I'd just turn my headset on, turn BT, wait for magic & play pandora.

I feel you on that one. we all just need to wait for some good roms to come, which is really soon. i have the app2sd app which helps but i do have lag (at times) but for me tegrak overclock, galaxy tuner, and sgs tools. all help a lot.

App2sd didn't help me much. Instead I partitioned the card and used link2sd.
That worked for a while but then i started getting storage full notices again.
So today I also used the fota fix which clears up 250mb all by itself. And I also ised titanium to freeze some system bloatware apps so they won't run in the background.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App

I have had NONE of the issues everyone is talking about.. additionally i've removed all of the bloatware, original ROM and SD card on phone, and it's snappy as heck.

I have not had any random bt disconnects since freezing some sytem apps and doing the fota fix. Only been a day but the phone is running like a dream w/those fixes so far.

you're using all those with your sgs 4g? I've heard of sgs tools creating issues (namely, camera) with the 4g.

Oh and +1 for the wifi issue, although it's only happened to me once I think. Then again, I don't use wifi very often.

I'm not sure if it was sgs tool's fault but ever since i used it my phone has been acting up so i might have to flash krylons stock rom. Now i have like no available ram memory, recording fails constantly, video that actually does record make the video player crash a lot, touch wiz no longer works, wifi always has an error, and i can't set ringtones anymore. Ill ive done on this phone is change the gallery, camera, and touch wiz through sgs tools and now its acting up a lot. I wish i can flash the rom now but my stupid computer says download error once i get to around 50%. I seriously learned my lesson, I'm not gonna mess with things that i don't really understand.

Can you please provide a list of what you actually removed? I'm familiar with what's bloat on the evo, but not on this device.
In a few days i'll be helping someone root their device along with installing a bunch of actually useful programs. This person is not interested in a custom rom/kernel, but getting rid of some of the stock bloat would be great.
Thanks!

Theres another weird thing I noticed about sgs4g, when you turned data off signal doesnt come on or takes a long time... Anybody else getting that and mine is stock no root nothing

Since we're talking signal in here...sitting at work, my G1 got great signal, now with my SG4G I bounce between 1 and two bars...
Do the SG4Gs only use 4G or Edge?

I use Spalshtop HD daily. Never had any issues. I don't really put my PC to sleep, so I haven't run into that issue. You might want to consider contacting Spalshtop support about that one. As far as the app on my TF goes, it's never crashed on me. I just used it about 20 minutes ago. Have you tried uninstalling and re-installing? Are you sure you have your ports set up correctly?

thanks for reply,
ports have not been touched, it's default setting am using, what should there be?

I'm not saying you need to change any settings, but your router's firewall may require you forward a port for it to make a connection. For instance, I have my router set up to use port 6783 for Spalshtop. Not sure how I decided on 6783, it's been a while since I set it up.

maybe you using splashtop version on tablet and pc diffirent, you can try download or using another vesion on pc. It work to me

Check that both the client and server parts are right up to date is all I can think. Like others I use splashtop on a daily basis with no issues. In fact I think it's great. I have it running on pcs and laptops, phone and transformer and have never had a single glitch.
Oh actually there is one issue but I ignore it. When I connect to a freshly turned on pc and login splashtop loses connection right after login and then I have to re-connect. Anybody else have this?

thanks all for advice,
am using the latest splashtop on pc & also tablet. Funny thing is that itwas workin fine at first then started messing up?? wht about pc sleep issue? pc does not sleep (mode) when splashtop is running, i have to turn off splashtop. I thought the pc should sleep cos thats the whole issue of having wake-on-lan function?

av just realised...splashtop is crashing/closing when am switching between folders etc. So each folder it would close. When am playing a video it would just stay closed (instantly shut down) until i turn the video off on my pc, then is back to normal.

Would be helpful to know what you are doing when it is crashing. The only thing I use mine for is to do a botcheck in a game instead of keeping my laptop on my lap. I have never had this issue. Maybe it's something else you are trying to do. When specifically is it happening. Splashtop will want to know all of this when you contact them anyway.

as mentioned above, it's crashing when am switching between folders, so if i want to go into picture folder then it would shut down for each folder. re-start will take me to next folder....hope that makes sense

What you are saying is clear, but it isn't a common problem. Since it appears to work for everyone else, there must be something going on with your particular setup. It could be on either the PC or Transformer side. Your probably not going to get a great deal of help with the PC side of things here. As far as your TF goes, what ROM are you running? Have you tried performing a full wipe and re-flashing your ROM? Are you even rooted?

hi, yes i am rooted using revolver..Splashtop works fine on my iPhone but just on TF it's not working..i'll try the wipe & flashing but can't really be bothered to re-set the whole thing again. thanks anyway

I will admit that i installed the splashtop streamer on two of my computers, both windows 7 with similar software. One of them it works perfectly, the other one it constantly goes off and on, and good luck trying to connect to it. I figure there is a software conflict with something. I could never figure out how to blank the screen when you connect so I just switched to 2x remote. i have not tried the HD version either, though it uses the same streamer app. I would try removing some programs from your startup (msconfig) and see if you can get it to work better.

[MOD by APP] Nebtop - Universal HDMI Webtop hack

This MOD by APP is different than the existing MOD by replacing system apks:
1. No risk of brick
2. Ease of use
3. Universal hack for phones and ROMs that has Webtop
Since this app is intended to support multiple devices, see the original post from the Razr thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1404625 .
Please report the test result in this thread. Whether success or fail and your device, ROM, etc.
It'd be nice to use the "Send" option in the app if it failed.
Thanks!

Nice find! I hope this does work.

Hope there will be firmware upgrade soon so that you can recover from it.
This is also why I tried to do this for my own use in the first place. I'm afraid of soft bricking the Razr too.

Got myself an HDMI cable today finally
I installed the mod on my Stock-rooted Atrix 2 and I can confirm it is working
The only thing I missed was the by the Webtop-help advertised "Entertainment Center" (This would probably be the more useful feature for me personally )

As a person who has used this!!!
Just a word of warning:
This app totally screwed up my phone. I installed it and was using it just fine for a couple of hours. Then all of a sudden, the phone becomes unresponsive. I unplugged the HDMI cable, and it rebooted. I didn't think anything of this. Just found it a little odd. Since then, any time I reboot the phone, it is reverted to the same state it was in right before the crash. The text message I had not yet read is re-received as new. All app updates are reverted. All new apps aren't installed. All new texts (since then) are gone. Apps are force-closing left and right. Be VERY careful with this app. I'm not sure it's really ready for prime-time, even now.

I know that you've experienced this a few days ago from my routine Googling but didn't know you haven't find a way back yet.
As from your original post, you were using Webtop at that moment and all in a sudden with the HDMI cable unplugged, then the phone rebooted.
At least a panic log is needed to verify whether this is related to Nebtop, or the stock ROM+Webtop.
As Nebtop has no listening of the HDMI cable plugging/unplugging event, it should had done nothing at that moment.
And your current state sounds like the file system is corrupted. If I have no way to fix this, I would try to backup the current state first, then try to revert to the stock. (not sure if Atrix 2 has any stock image leaked )
Finally, I'd like to help to identify the actual cause of the reboot, only if you could look up the kernel panic log at this location /data/dontpanic/apanic_console (this is the path for one of the Motorola phone, it could be changed for Atrix 2).

This app totally screwed up my phone. I installed it and was using it just fine for a couple of hours. Then all of a sudden, the phone becomes unresponsive.

I already have the webtop mod posted by Fenny, what is the difference with this one? Does this one work through a runtime + mirror? It allows on screen touch and keyboad?

The feature of Nebtop is pretending the HD Dock.
The requirement to use Nebtop is a rooted phone.
The disadvantage of Nebtop is none so far, therefore the advantages are no persistence change, no intrusive modification to anything, no risk of brick.
Yes, like using the HD Dock, the on screen touch and keyboard is working by using Nebtop.

Can I install nebtop over my existing hack by fenny? I have no onscreen touchscreen or mouse control with the fenny hack. Also I can't seem to find the xorg.conf file anywhere, I'm on the supercharged v5 rom. Based on 2.3.6

I haven't tried personally.
Nebtop could only make it work if it would work for a real HD Dock.

well i installed nebtop on v5 supercharged rom and its working fine, replying now from nebtop using the on screen keyboard and mouse. only thing i notice is i cant use the mobile apps from nebtop, probably because the keyboard is using the screen. atrix 2

I'm not sure what do you mean by "cant use the mobile apps from nebtop".
Do you mean from Webtop? Have you watched the video I've made? Maybe I can imagine better if you would tell the difference(not can vs can't but some concrete examples....like when clicking on the "Phone Manager", there is no response....or the "Phone Manager" window is blank...etc) you see.

Phone manager was blank in webtop. I could see the tabs such as text messaging and adw launcher but no display. This was happening both when launching via nebtop and also via fenny hack. I did a phone restart and the problem went away so everything works perfect now.
The only other thing I noticed is the phone seemed to get extra hot, though the phone seems to run a bit on the hot side anyway so its probably normal.
One difference that I notice between fenny and nebtop is nebtop says connected to HD display and fenny hack says connected to HDMI cable. This is probably why the trackpad and mouse work in nebtop and not with the fenny hack.

Yeah, this and nebtop don't work for me. Nothing pops up so I can view my phone on my HP laptop. I did the adb push and stuff. No go. I don't get the option for Webtop.
At least, this is my understanding of this? To use it on your laptop without a dock-right?

Nope, this is so that you can connect your phone to say a monitor or TV with an HDMI cable and use the phone to control webtop.

Notification problems anyone ?

I must say i love the phone as in battery life and the camera also gives some nice pictures.
But what started it to not love the phone anymore is the notification problem.
I installed Whatsapp and as soon as the lockscreen was active or a few minutes later it stopped to receive notifications.
This also was for Telegram and my home automation app.
I have searched for topics and found quite allot of these similar notification problems with tips.
What i have done is set by every application that needed to be running in the background :
Enable autostart
Turn of battery saving mode - no limitation
Lock the app in the screen where you can empty / close the running apps.
Also found a topic and application that should "fix" some notification problems for MIUI.
https://github.com/FabioCZ
Not sure if this completly works but i am starting to get most notifications on whatsapp/telegram etc.
What does not work at all is my video doorbell,
the application is Hik-Connect.
Got my older samsung phone laying next to the note 10 and press the ring button.
Only samsung rings, the note 10 doesn't work at all.
ofcourse i have installed them both from the playstore, used the same settings on the xiaomi to keep it running.
Nothing
Is there anyone that has an idea, because the whole handy thingy is gone now.
maybe a custrom rom will solve it,but since i have no idea how to make it thats a no go
I did unlocked the phone , installed orange fox and magisk to use titanium backup.
Can say that this didn't work flawless also, getting magisk giving the toast message to give certain apps root acces etc etc.
whats even worse, can't return the phones ( got 2, 1 for me and for m girlfriend)
Well hope someone has an idea.
Thanks
edit: i am using nightskeeper to automatically turn of the sound at a certain time and turn it on.
Give some contacts rights to still call trough the audio block.
But also this application does not work anymore, i get this notice every time but its already active.
When i enter ok, and turn the permissions on it works again for a few hours or so and then its gone.
its getting a bit frustrating , hopefully my alarm clock will still stay working

try this setting

try to put a system sound, the same thing happens when I put an mp3 or music sound

thanks guys,
the sound trick was indeed a good one because it could not find the audio file that was set from my samsung phone ( used titanium backup to install WA again)
It does seem that 9 of 10 times i do get the notices.
Also got my Hik-Connect app finally running and ringing when i press the doorbell.
Now comes the strangest part, the settings that i have put in my phone are identical to the phone of my girlfriend.
And my phone works with most of the services that i want but the phone from my girl doesn't.
Also bumped into another thing, wifi tethering .
I have a android radio in my car, what i got set with Tasker for years is :
1 - jump in the car
2- bluetooth makes a connection to the radio/phone .
3- tasker notices this, starts wifi tethering / hotspot
4- radio will connect on the hotspot of the phone and live traffic naviation / streaming radio works.
That was how it was supposed to work, now i get a notice from tasker that its not working, need a extra application and root.
I have root / installed the wifi tasker tether application. Also found the module that should do the same and installed this in magisk.
But still a no go
i do like fiddeling around with my phones, but it has to work eventually haha.
Would come in handy if i know how to write code and make my own fix for this.
Ah well anyway, im going to make a full backup from my phone and try to set this 1:1 on my girls phone.
Hopefully the notifications and the doorbell will work then.
Thanks guys

Im using notifybuddy for notifications and it's a life changer.

Hello Vincenttot, I have bought a PocoX3 PRO mobile and the same thing happens to you.
What does not work at all is my video doorbell, the application is Hik-Connect. But on other phones it works fine.
Have you found any solution?
Thanks guys
