长江手机-移动叔叔

我在PCSHOW竟然找不到中国手机的身影
在森林大厦看到的$240
没有看到
但在印度店看到长江001手机
展会价$229 闭市价到 $199
上网找到 安卓智能长江HD9 完美但CPU还不知怎样
最后还找到

这网站有很多其他的手机,我将停在这里研究研究

PC Show Prolink router WNR1004

The whole PC Show I end up only buying the Prolink router WNR1004 for $25
I can not wait long to test out when I go home at 11pm
I plug out the cable from the Prolink Power Ethernet adaptor
and extend it to new Prolink wifi router
Because there is 3 modes, I struggle until 2am to get it right
ts very simple, just need to set to Gateway (middle switch)
Plug out the power cable and back on
(make sure the radio off - actual mean to toggle it on)
Use the browse to telnet to http://192.168.10.254
Or just find the wifi server ProLin_WNR on your hp/tablet
you can then surf easily in your hotel
or in your room which the wifi signal is weak in your flat
This couple with my viewpad tethering,
It will cater for all the Internet access that I will need

back to Square zero

After few trial, I give up the custom ROM
(even though update.zip is still on SDcard)
I restore back to original rom
by flash to recovery.img
But I struggle again to install any apps
I wrote email to market android team
I was force to do FactoryDataReset
still the problem no app can be install even for market update and
3 default apps maps, gmail and youtube
So this is what I do to go back to 0.0
I do a CWrecovery
I go for option wipe factory reset and cache
under the CWrecovery
That's the only way to do a superclean reset
Then I use filemgr to install link2SD , app2SD and titanium (I dun use appadmin this time)
Too bad there is no automatic process
I have to like play game and keep press button to continue restore about 166 apps
that only take up just abt 80Mb internal memory left !
Hope to play with all these for this week before I buy 32Gb SD card (PC Show Sunday)
and do the painful process of re-install again
randomly I found one app FBreader is corrupted
using titanium I resort to delete the app
then install from market again
there are few errors during installation and so I will find out one by one later
But still automatic installation process with log will help to build up the system
OR maybe Norton gosh image concept can be used in android OS too

Redo everything

Last night the battery go low
This morning I go battery to charge the battery from 0%
After boot up, only few apps are available
I try to low the CPU speed back to 600 MHz
I have to recover ROM and do FactoryDeviceReset
Both the Singtel SIM card will not work without APN
So I need a wifi spot borrow from Shi Hao HTC
This is to keep as a record

If got problem in rooting or su command later

This is as a reminder that if later got problem in Root
as someone got problem after changing of ROM as in
Seem that under
Hmmm ... yep, I thought it was a bit odd as well, but Root Explorer failed to get root, so I tried Titanium, it spat out the 'Failed to get root access' error. 
I hopped back into WinXP and ran SuperOneClick 1.5 using the ADB.exe from the virtual cdrom which mounts when you plug it into Windows, hit 'Root' which always took 2 goes as it did this time
; it reported as 'rooted', but I lazily didn't follow the remainder of the instruction given here about changing permissions of su.
 Booted the tab back up and it was still not rooted, ran z4root from the market .. sorted Could it be to do with the fact that I didn't do a wipe before flashing, would that leave some data/security related settings behind? or maybe it's to do with something in /hidden?? .. call it a hunch, but since I got this I have always felt that it is more 'locked down' than it first seems (cue the x-files music) unsure.gif

Vital link before you hack viewpad 7

The following give simple understanding of the whole process
An overview - sticky note
on go direct way to root viewpad 7
As to backup ROM
Also on flash other ROM
I waiting to write a wiki page or do more research
From the first link
Q: Are there any custom ROMs for this device? A: There are currently 3 functional ROMs that I am aware of. Enhanced Froyo on XDA is overclocked, removes some bloat, and changes the framework. MoDaCo Custom ROM kitchen which seems to mostly present options in terms of what is or isn't installed. TJStyle's Custom Kernal is a custom kernal (only) that is also supposed to work on this device.
