[Q] Allwinner A10 Touch Screen Sensitivity - General Questions and Answers

Is there a way to increase the touch sensitivity for Allwinner A10 tablets? Compared to my SGSII screen my stylus is very sketchy on the Allwinner A10 tablet. Both devices have a screen protector on and both were tested using the same stylus. I'm ruling it down to the touch screen sensitivity levels being low on my Onda vi40 (allwinner A10 tablet). I've read around that you need to adjust a file in the device but none of the other posts on here are helping me to find it. The /sys/class/touch/switch directory doesn't exist as well as none of the SGS1 touch screen booster apps appear to work.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated as I've spent the past 3 hours figuring out how to do it as these tablets aren't quite as common as some of the other devices around here.

Who is the original OEM of Auxus 01? What model is this, cuz I want something which is supported at XDA. Custom ROM. Wanna buy a cheap tab, but don't want Funbook. It has lot of battery issues.
Any one cooking anything? Any Root manual or ADB?

Hi, As it is new tab it will take some time to get the support on XDA before that we need to find out original OEM of Auxus 01. I suggest check Ainol site, you might find some traces
But i guess its based on 1.0 GHz ARM Cortex A8 so any custom rom for that CPU might work. Also check VeeDee D13...costs only 5000Rs
iBerry Auxus AX01 OEM Info
Hi,
I have bought the Auxus AX01 Tablet and the OEM of what i think is Topwise. This the link to their website.
Cheers
I tried my best buy can't find the OEM. Checking Top wise. VeeDee D13 is ok, but ax 01 has 1GB RAM. D13 has Box chip CPU, same as SWIPE tel. DOn't know how much apps will support box chip, and is it MIPS instruction set?
Box Chip
Well, it's from Allwinner. An updated version. A13. Not MIPS. SO It must support many apps. Top Wise does not looks like AX01 check the specs.

Hardware
 
Hands on Experience:
Everything was as advertised. The hardware is already mentioned above. The pack contains all standard equipment and manuals except headphone. Although it is a cheap Chinese product but you get all the things you’d get in any other product.
Aesthetics:
Tablet is very light. You instantly get a plastic feel. The buttons are not so soft. They are as hard as an old cassette player’s button. The charger pin is a little long, it does not completely enters the charging port , not that it makes any difference, but it’s always visible.
Screen:
The display is as good as any other budget tablet with same resolution. It feels it’s a little loose, but perhaps it’s cause I am used to Gorilla glass. The digitizer and screen are quiet far. The DIP is 160.
Touchscreen:
It’s pathetic! Yes I said it. It might be cause I have got a bad unit, but when you use it you immediately find out whats the difference between international standard conforming company like Samsung and cheap knockout product.
You have to press really hard as if it was a resistive screen. The touchscreen misses signal, while moving widgets on screen you have to try many a times, the “birds” are released un expectedly, it takes lot of pain to unlock the the device. Although once you get used to pressing hard it does gets a little better, but you’ll always know that the touch screen is bad. I have used Ployer MOMO 9, it’s touch screen is a lot better
Charging:
Takes nearly 4 hours to charge 100%. The problem is, whe you charge with USB, the screen starts to flicker.
Battery:
I used it with wifi ON…3 hours straight, browsing, music, game play, played video files. The device turns off once battery reaches 5%. There is a problem while charging, the indicator jumps from 5% to 15 % in 5 minutes, I wiped battery stats but no change. Normal usgage will give about 4 hours of back up.
Apps:
This tablet has Google play installed by default; most of the apps that I installed are supported. Market shows most of the apps.

I also got the tablet yesterday and I liked it.
but the main problem is the touchscreen.
it is really bad.
I think iberry manufacturer should be notified of this fault and I hope they fix it with a software update.

Guys,
Have you all tried removing the protective plastic film that comes installed on the Tablet?
If no, then there's no wonder your touch screen sensitivity is bad.
Try doing that and then post an update because i don't find any kind of problem with the touchscreen.

Will you please post your review abhishek, it seem our fellow XDAns having some issues with the touchscreen
I removed the Screen Peel off when I got my tab.
but games like angry birds are not working properly(problems with touch)
BTW don't you guys think that our tab also need Attention as the Ax02 is getting on Xda?
I mean our tab is rooted with su binary and busybox
I installed superuser and updated binary and I got the su permissions properly.
I want to update the busybox so as to use lucky patcher but ax02 users say that updating busybox lead to hang at boot problems so I didn't update busybox.
And I want to know that is there any blog from where we can download WVGA games for our tab?
thanks.

Thanx in advance!
iBerry Auxus AX01 Review
This is a basic hands on review of the Auxus AX01 7" tablet. (The specs of this tablet are included in the first post of this thread)
Hardware:
1. Performance:
This tablet, for me, was a replacement to the HAIPAD M701-R that I had and broke during a careless disassembly process. The specs of this tablet are pretty good for this price point and I can definitely recommend this tablet as a value for money proposition. I did not feel the tablet getting stuck at any point of time during my usage.
2. Display
The touch screen for the initial 1.5 days of my usage felt extremely bad and I was regretting my purchase. But on looking at the user guide, I found that there was a peel off screen protection on the touch screen that needs to be removed. After removal of the peel off protection, the touch screen felt light and responsive. No problems here in this department for me. The display resolution and colour vibrance however is not as crisp as a Sony BRAVIA mobile display for example. The colours seem a bit washed out at times and don’t possess the richness. On close observation, one can clearly see the pixels spread around the screen. The 800X400 resolution does not help in any way for a screen of this size.
3. Other Hardware
The other hardware includes the buttons and ports all around the tablet. The Home, Back, Menu touch sensitive buttons have good amount of response to them but the lack of backlit under the keys were seriously missed here. You need to rely on your senses to approximate the location of the three keys, Very Difficult at times!
The Volume up, Volume Down, power off physical buttons work as expected and have a nice click to them on pressing.
The power in port, micro USB port, HDMI port and 3.5mm port work as expected. As mentioned in an earlier review by pranjal87, the power jack protrudes a little part of itself out of the power port, a problem that most can live with, no loose connections here.
Charging, as pranjal87 mentioned, takes nearly 3-4 hours to charge to 100%. I did not notice the screen flickering though. (Buyers of this tablet must try the 3 battery cycles method to extract the complete battery capacity. (For the first usage, charge to 100>Use till shutdown; Do this for another 2 times)
P.S: Charging the battery does not take as long now after some battery cycling. Who agrees to me on this?
I do not have the mini HDMI cable, so could not check the HDMI functionality of the tablet.
4. Software:
Out of the box, the tablet had a lot essential pre-installed apps. I liked almost all of them. Free memory in the tablet was around ~500MB at all times with various apps running in the background.
5. Is rooting required?
After reading various forums and using the tablet extensively, I felt that there was little or no use rooting this device. There is not a lot of factory bloatware installed. Root would be good if there were any stable customized ROMs and kernels that would enhance the functionality of this tablet.
6. Battery Backup:
Normal usage would let users enjoy the tablet for 3-4 hours. Mid to heavy usage would decrease that time to around 2.5-3.5 hours.
Hope the review was helpful to all.
Any specific questions can be posted if required.
Cheers!
LOL

Even I was confused between Auxus 01 and Funbook
Funbook
Advantage(i didn't used the pro word cuz then you might have confused it with the 10 inch funbook pro worth 9k!!!)
1.Warranty
2.Fully working hardware (specially TOUCH SCREEN)
3.Better 3rd party and xda support
Disadvantage
1.Less RAM
2.Less Battery
GIven a choice, I'd rather buy Funbook now, AUXUS has really depressed me. Other things do not matter utill your touch screen is working. I have given that i.berry seller on ebay a very bad rating ofcourse negative. That guys rathing is falling everyday, mostly cuz of delayed delivery, but there are others who have seen hardware failure. Check out nearly 80 negative review in a month.
On the RAM, I can say you will not find a very huge difference as you would see had you be running a windows pc. Cuz yes, android has a very very bad resource management system.

[Poll] Help with 10'' android tablet choice

Having a hard time deciding. Options are: Asus TF300T, Acer Iconia A510, Acer Iconia A700 HD.
The main deciding factors are:
- will be used for gaming
- must have Tegra 3 Quad core cpu
- JellyBean
- under 400 euros
The A700 would be my first choice, but some reviews said it lags and it is a little slower then the others. Others said the screen might not be so great (not bright enough). This seems to be caused by the higher screen resolution. Thing is, I don't really need very high res as it may impact gaming performance. However most reviews I saw were old, so Acer may have pushed some updates since then. Also another point in favor of the Iconia is that I plan to use an external keyboard, not like the Asus which comes with its own keyboard/dock.
Another point is that I read that the A700 vs A510 is only about the screen resolution. Is this true? Therefore is the A510 faster because of lower screen res? Would this be a plus for gaming?
Sadly I would love the Nexus 7 as this would check all the boxes, but it's too small. The Nexus 10 is not available for me.
1. Which would be the fastest/lag-less, more swift in general?
2. Would the Iconia A700 be able to run all current 3D android games fluently?
3. Would there be any other choice? If anyone has the time to take a look, please make any suggestions from two stores: fnac and darty. Google for the full links; they are stores in France where I am currently stationed.
Edit: made a mistake in the model name of the Acer tablets, of course they are the A700 and A510. Could a mod please edit the poll, or is there a way for me to correct?

[Q] Which of these 3 tablets to buy?

I was wondering whether to post in Off-topic or here, despite this board saying phones, and while tablets are not phones, I decided here due to lack of a proper decision.
There are 3 tablets that I have currently eyed:
Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 7.0(used;not sure if available)
Prestigio Multipad Quantum 7.85
Onda V711s
Now, out of all the three the Onda V711s wins by pure raw power, has a quad core CPU and a Power VR SGX544 MP4 GPU and a 7inch IPS display, however as you can already guess it's a chinese tablet. As for the Samsung one, I have an SGS2 smartphone, I've grown tired of the TouchWiz interface, the generic Samsung look and I am deeply afraid the tablet will suffer from lag which I experience on my SGS2 daily and has a dual-core CPU.
Still, I at least know the Samsung tablet is a known brand, uses common hardware and has a forum dedicated with it with many kernels/ROMs I presume, whereas the Onda v711s doesn't seem to have it's own dedicated thread(or any information regarding it on here). Also, the Onda from what I could understand in a Russian review(again, maybe I heard it wrong) has bad Wi-Fi reception and drops out.
The Prestigio tablet has a bigger screen, is slower than the Onda, anything else I am not sure.
Advice?
P.S
If the thread is in the wrong section I kindly ask a moderator to move it instead of deleting

Lenovo thinkpad x201 tablet vs Lenovo thinkpad tablet 2

I'm at the point of buying a new windows tablet, that i will use for general works and uses , typing, surfing the web, news , .... and for some creative use as drawing, and some video making, after i have seen too much tablets, i have stopped at the too Lenovo thinkpad x201 tablet and Lenovo thinkpad tablet 2 that are at the budget, and seem interesting in build and feature, Lenovo thinkpad tablet 2 is more recent and have futures that the x201 don't like the gps and the Camera of 8mp, and a full hd screen, and it's heavier and more comfortable, but not quiet performer, in comparison the x201 have good performance, and leak the camera and the gps, and also i don't know for the multi-touch function i think thinkpad tablet 2 is 5 or 10 finger touch, and x201 just 2 finger touch.
I ask to help me choose wich is better for me , and this by responding to those questions:
- for drawing and talking about the digitizer wich one is best?
- the multitouch the difference is it really important, can the 2 finger touch suffice, or the difference is too important
-what other features that can can change the advantage of one over the other.
what about Lenovo thinkpad x201 tablet vs Lenovo thinkpad tablet 2
Thank you a lot.

Replacement for Sony Z3 TC 8" tablet?

My old Z3 TC is getting unreliable and is showing its age. What's a good replacement?
It must be a similar size i.e 8" or 9" screen. I'm considering the Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite but the screen resolution is a lot less, 179ppi compared to 283ppi for the old Sony.
My usage is mostly browsing, ebooks, occasional video and occasional GPS.
Has anyone had both and can compare? Any other recommendations to consider?
many thanks

Thanks for your quick reply. The user reviews on GSM Arena are less than complimetary, and the screen resolution is even lower than the A7 Lite. Do you watch videos on your M9?

Don't confuse screen-resolution ( screen width x screen height ) & pixel-density ( pixels per inch ).
As with all Android devices both the screen resolution and the PPI can get set by you.
Sure, but you can't exceed the manufacturer's maximum.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab Active3 looks good, but it's very expensive for a tablet.
