I want to use a 3g dongle in a rooted tf101 with stock ics , where can i find 3g libs/driver ? How to activate mobile network ? I read about on custom roms you can use a 3g dongle ... but i want to used on stock ics ... on 3.2.1 worked with the help of gnufabio & roach2010 app.
Thank you.

I'm not sure that it's been dev'd for stock ICS, you may have to go with a stock based ROM like ARHD or Revolver. The dongle will work though, with proper drivers.
ok the point is that i want to use 3g dongle but without loose may data , to wipe/clear before use a custom rom, i could write it over current stock but is risky for loosing data and FC ... and a backup don't satisfy my needs for the moment.
i'm open to new suggestions.
thanks

I have the wifi only version running stock ics. Does usb host with the otg cable work with a stock device yet?
I have tried flash drives, card readers and got nothing. I know it work once before. Did ics disable this option? Is the only way to get usb host with the otg cable on the xoom through root?
Thanks.
I amnot sure if it works on stock roms. But I assume it should. I rooted my device the moment I received it and installed custom ics rom from team eos and usb otg work great. No issues with it and gets auto mounted.

It will not work unless used for stock updates from Motorola (Recovery). The Xoom or ICS actually knows the usb drive is there but it has to gain higher level access that only root privileges can give. So Rooting will solve this issue although rooting is not the answer for everything.
Keyboard and mouse functions should work properly on the stock device though....
Thank you for the help. From what I've read elsewhere, it sounded like I needed to root to get that to work. Just wanted to be sure. Sad, as this worked before ics for me.
I have no issues rooting as my phone has been rooted for sometime now. Is there a difference in roms and kernels and the rooting process between a WiFi only xoom and a 3g/4g xoom? I would ask this in the proper section, but I don't have enough posts to do so yet.

Thanks for the great info.
Loading the WiFi ROM will give me full usb host capabilities? Or do I need a special kernel or different ROM than what's posted?
I'm just looking to read thumb drives, card readers or any other storage type device.
Thanks again.
It will give you fat32 support so far. I came across ntfs support on xda news today posted by a senior member who compiled it with the kernel and made it generic to rooted roms. Didn't try that yet.
With rooted roms of team eos, you can mount flash drives and hdd of fat32 so far which is great and it auto mounts on /media/usb.

Hello.
Today we have a couple of JB roms, but not one of them contains in its description any words on 3G support.
May be I have mistaken and there are roms, that supporting 3G dongles or TF101G internal 3G?

Just try them out, afaik almost all roms released have 3g support.
Try adding the app PPP Widget from the Play Store and it should add 3G to any ROM so long as you know your carrier settings.

That is true. It also works on stock rom.
But it is not the same as 3g support in the rom. For example sending and receiving SMS is not working. Also 3g watchdog is not seeing the traffic as 3g.
Sadly there is no other JB rom supporting 3g in the rom as far as I know.
Megatron has 3g in rom but is not JB (I use this).

I did not try the ppp widget but like gls9 says is not the same.
Why 3g in JB for TF101G is not posible?
Currently isso use the Android revolution rom, this rom supports 3g, this is the better or you advice another one?

The reason is simple. Asus has not released a JB ROM for the TF101G so it is not possible for native JB ROM support until this happens.
ARHD is based on the TF101G ICS ROM.

Hi, I'm wondering if i can use the CWM/TWRP to restore a CM7 (Gingerbread) .zip on a ICS P920 phone and then restore the ICS back again. I used to use CWM Recovery to go between official GB and CM7 but since I flashed and upgraded to the new ported ICS I don't know if this is possible. Does anybody have any experience on this?
Thanks.
PS. I plan to do this because the bluetooth drivers on the ICS port doesn't allow me to connect my DS3 controller over bluetooth.

No this isnt possible because the partition table of ICS is different from the gingerbread ones so if you restore the GB backup it will brick your device

Hi,
I am using EOS3 rom (4.1.1) on my TF101 now.
Looking for a newer rom (preferably 4.1.2) with 3G usb modem support.
Can I get some suggestions ?
Also, I'd like to test 3G modem support on the current rom if possible before changing rom. How can I test that ?
I'd appreciate any suggestions.
try ppp widget from play store
I am not looking for a widget, but a rom.

no rom has the support
really ?
I've heard that at least 4.0 roms have it, and with a correct kernel, 4.1 roms may have it.
is that wrong ?
Part of the issue is that the TF101G never made it beyond 4.0, so native support may never get there until the TF101G gets 4.1.X.
But, I guess I don't understand the issue with using pppwidget to get 3G functionality with a ROM vs having it baked into the ROM.
I have no problem with using pppwidget. It's ok; I already tried it on my current rom.
The thing is, I am also looking for a new rom. So just suggest me a new rom and I'll use it with pppwidget.
Also, I believe, there should be ROMs that support 3G because on several Android tablets (like Ainol), I see the 3G connectivity settings to use with a 3G modem.
So it shouldn't be hard to integrate if it's not already included in CM10 ?

the last rom to have support was megatron ICS. None since then. no combination of kernel or whatever can make it work past ics unless the devs specifically work on it.
thank you. that's clear now.

For example sending and receiving SMS is not working with pppwidget. It is with 3g in Rom (like Megatron).
Also 3g watchdog not reconizing 3G traffic with pppwidget as 3g.
I am using the clemsyn kernel but clem has stopped cooking and guys said I should check out the tf700 forum so I need to know which of those work for a tf300tg or how can I make them work. I've been trying to see if there's info on the threads' description but nothing there. Any help . appreciated
Which rom are you using? If you are using a stock based rom there are 20 kernels available in my kernel installer. 12 TF700 and 8 TF300 variants.
I'm on stock, will give them a try right now. thanks.
I've downloaded your ROM a few days ago so I might as well flash it over, I did a backup a few hours ago so I can always go back if I'm not satisfied. My main problem is a proper TF300TG kernel with GPU OC. Let's see then how it goes.
I just remembered why I'm not running your ROM, my wifi is unresponsive, even though it connects automatically to my router, I can't change any settings or discover/connect to another network. Even did a clean install if I recall correct bu still the same results. Will check your kernel installer after I restore.
I go for Unters TF300T kernel, it clocks the processor depending on which setting you have it on:
power saving 1gz
balanced mode 1.3gz
performance 1.6gz
And also the front facing camera works with this kernal
You can get the kernel in sbdags awesome kernal installer

don't really care for 3g, oc yes I went for the unters one anyway since it was the only one saying tf300t(g) in the end, thanks guys, is the unters kernel thread in the tf700 forum? will look for it myself as well but i cant find anything in ours.
hope there's gonna be a proper ROM like cleanrom for the 3g model,
@burt_ie do you know if the gpu is overclocked?

if you dont need 3g everything that works on tf300t will work on tf300tg.

whatsapp wont install even on stock if you dont download it manually and force install the package.
and if you do so it will work on clean (look for a thread here on XDA for a tablet-friendly version).
btw did you chose the right DPI setting from aroma installer on clean, right? a lot of apps wont work correctly with wrong DPI settings - chose 160DPI.

Yes, I did all that, proper dpi and pushing the apk manually, actually tried a few guides on the matter. Had the same issue on energy rom unless I flashed over from stock, and by doing that I couldn't switch on/off the wifi. It was on but could only connect to previously saved networks. Same issue on cleanrom. Only difference is that a full wipe would make the wifi work on clean but not on energy. Whatsapp is the way I talk to my girl, don't really like viber's gui. And don't have the time to spare on reflashing all the time. Abort-retry-fail was nice when I was single and had all day to myself to choose if I want a night out partying or in flashing every single rom I can think of on whichever device I had at the time lol

Correct. Clemsyn's haven't worked for me, and I do care a lot about 3G that's why I opted for the TG model. The only one that works is Unters...
