It does explain everything but too late for me as I have crash my hp restore !
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=519495
Simple explanation:
When Android starts up, the DalvikVM looks thru all of your applications (.apk files) and frameworks, and builds a tree of dependencies. It uses this dependency tree to optimize the bytecode for every application and stores it in the Dalvik cache. The applications are then run using the optimized bytecode. This is why when you install a new ROM, sometimes it takes a very long time to boot for the first time. Any time an application (or framework library) changes, it's reoptimized and the cache is updated.

If my CJ HD9 able to recover again, please do this frist
If I have another second/third chances to recover my HD9 again, I swear to do the following:
Please refer to http://androidforums.com/viewsonic-tablets/345625-how-backup-viewpad-7-original-rom.html#post2755471
Please find the ADB driver or software
(my viewpad adb.exe seem work for HD9 too)
Same thing to be done for HD9
Please refer to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1015005&highlight=viewpad+7
2.5 Or using Run ADB shell
Here is some of my trials
C:\viewpad>adb shell
$ su
Compare with viewpad ROM the files are differences
so you have to edit the "script" for different models
# cat /proc/mtd
cat /proc/mtd
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 00020000 00020000 "preloader"
mtd1: 00300000 00020000 "nvram"

mtd12: 10540000 00020000 "userdata"
repeat this for all image and in fact you can copy the following to the root comand prompt
and it will execute the following "script" in sequence

copy all these *.img into another safe place and you able to restore your own ROM stock files

It is a roller coaster
one day after Christmas
I still struggling to restore the CJ HD9
Then in the morning, as I tried to switch on CJ HD9
it boot up
I was so happy and excited
I called up YS to meet up and want to redo Titanium backup installation
But YS reject my suggestion
Then in the afternoon
I was trying to rebuild all application one by one
I remove duplicate superuser and titanium apk
under \system\app
Then I could have done another Dalvik cache wipe
(how can I do the same stupid thing twice)
All the while, I do remind myself to do another CWM backup or flash CWM recovery
(I going to write the process in next blog)
Then the ANDROID logo appear then boot up seem to repeat in a loop
I wait for five minutes but it could be too short
I done the disaster thing -
I take out the battery to stop the process
Again my hp crash and end up not able to boot up from recovery for the three times !!
Oh Santa please help me again ...

Move2SD
I got a bad 32G SD card that can not be partition into two
so fails to be used for link2SD
I used in viewpad
Do a factory reset for three times (to clear all applications)
After root with SuperOneClick
It take a while I try with Move2SD (Need root)
and so happy that the combination works
It show perfectly with app2SD (Sam Lu version still best as it show memory remain directly)
that only Google application
(Maps, gmail, Market)
is shown in the phone memory
The rest all moved to SD !!!
Only tedious procedures need to work with Move2SD
First startup screen
You need to proved that you have "I have read" first message
Then the "next" button will appear
(but do remember to tick "do not appear during startup" button to get rid of first screen
Then on second screen (or display after tick away first screen)
I choose "External" rather than "Auto"
to redirect all application to SD and dun leave a chance
I have to confirm by using app2SD to check all applications are moved
and monitor the memory
At present, my viewpad internal memory remind at 120Mb (app2SD)
even I have install few applications like MeRadio, AMPed traditional phone memory application
Maybe from now on, I will not know what application are ONLY be installed in phone memory ;-)
Let hope to keep it this way forever !
It is also interesting to check memory map via DiskUsage application

root and unroot ACE
在Jacket大提供了S5830 的開箱文和root教學後,相信大家都從中受益良多,其後文中還有很多的問題解答可供學習,包含刪除客製化教學,還沒看過的同學可以去看一下:
SAMSUNG GALAXY ACE(S5830)~王者機~開箱兼ROOT教學兼效能測試
http://www.WUANTS.com/topicdetail.php?f=568&t=2043314
有同學提出若須送修時,希望可以unroot,以免喪失保固,因此小弟研究了一陣子,在自己能力所及的範圍內,提供大家一個方法,或許有其他更好的辦法,還望其他高手指教
這次我爬文找到了常見的三套一鍵root工具,分別是 Universal Androot , z4root ,和 SuperOneClick,或許是版本不夠新的關係,Universal Androot安裝執行後並無法成功對S5830 unroot,而z4root更離譜,明明去年還在market上市的軟體,各大market和論壇聯結全部都找不到軟體,已經被google要求下架 了,只好無言放棄,而原本沒預料到的SuperOneClick反而有新版本v1.7提供了unroot的功能(Jacket大先前提供的V1.5.3並 無unroot功能)
SuperOneClick v1.7下載 :
程式作者所提供的下載連結 : http://shortfuse.org/SuperOneClickv1.7-shortFuse.zip
對岸論壇連結與介紹 : http://www.androidmi.com/xz/xtgj ... rOneClick-v1.7.html
Unroot注意事項： (基本上跟root時一樣)
1、Windows XP需要安裝Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0＋；
2、手機需要打開USB調試模式； (USB偵錯打勾)
3、電腦需要安裝手機的USB驅動程序； (Samsung Kies)
4、手機需要卸載SD卡； (這個我沒卸載SDcard,執行後一樣可以unroot)
不過在unroot前,我們還要利用root權限做一件事,就是將那個海盜頭的授權程式從系統中移除掉,否則即使unroot和回復原廠設定後,在系統檔案中仍看的到那個授權程式的圖形,很容易露出馬腳
1.首先備份授權程式, 由超級管理器/APK管理器/ 找到授權程式(superuser.apk)的檔案,點進去,備份APK,預設路徑會存到SDcard中(預設/mnt/sdcard /SuperTaskManager/MyAPKs) ,路徑記下來,以後想root的時候,記得不要再執行SuperOneClick了,藉由/超級管理器/檔案總管到剛剛備份的地方,選擇安裝檔案即可,重 新安裝後的授權程式app路徑不再是/system/app了,而會到/data/app,就像一般的app檔案一樣,隨時可移除或重新安裝(不需root權限)
重新安裝後,路徑在/data/app
按這裡檢視圖片
2.超級管理器/檔案總管/system/app/ 找到授權程式,請把它解除安裝
3.SuperOneClick v1.7下載解壓後執行的畫面跟舊版很像,但多出了幾個新的功能鍵,Unroot按下去就對了,執行時間不到1分鐘,畫面出現"Device does not have Superuser"就成功了,最後問你要不要捐錢給作者,就看個人了,unroot的部份到此已經結束
按這裡檢視圖片
不過想不露馬腳送修,除了剛剛殺掉授權程式外,還有幾個地方要注意的:
1.若你root後只是抓抓圖,玩玩SetCPU超頻之類的東西,沒有刷ROM或進行瘦身(刪客製化和無用預設程式等),請到/設定/隱私設定/重設為原廠設定即可
按這裡檢視圖片
2.若你有刪過客製化等系統程式,除了重設為原廠設定外,請把刪客製化前備份的檔案還原回來,因為已經刪掉的東西,是無法經過重設復原的,先前刪客製化前有叫大家備份,不會有人沒備份吧!!
超級管理器/程式備份與還原
按這裡檢視圖片
3.若你已經刷過其它版本ROM了,那就要把原版本的ROM刷回來,不過這點小弟還不知道如何取得原版ROM,希望有高手指點了,對岸的論壇已經出現有官 方android 2.3 for S5830 亞太版及歐洲版的ROM可供下載,一直很想刷刷看,可是卡在沒原版ROM,不敢下手

山寨平板乱中求存，芯片商洗牌在即
引言：日前笔者在“山寨平板性能不山寨，华强北卧虎藏龙”一文中对于平板电脑渠道和产业现状进行了初步调查，得出了一些结论，也留下了不少疑问。为了解答上次调查所遗留的问题，笔者再次走访了十多家平板电脑企业，有了更多新的发现。
前言
日前笔者在“山寨平板性能不山寨，华强北卧虎藏龙”一文中对于平板电脑渠道和产业现状进行了初步调查，得出了一些结论，也留下了不少疑问。没想到有不少业内朋友发来邮件进行交流，还有提供相关产业资料的，这里笔者要说一声，非常感谢！
为了解答上次调查所遗留的问题，笔者走访了多家平板电脑企业。在走访过程中，笔者看到了他们的困惑与无奈，也看到了他们的创新与坚持。
珠三角、深圳、华强北，作为全球电子产业的心脏，这里成熟完善的产业链给了这些国内企业强烈的自信，然而市场环境的浮躁又让它们有些急功近利。
发现问题，正视问题，最后一起来解决问题。这也是笔者希望更多业内人士看到此文的初衷，只有这样，这个产业才不会在萌芽阶段夭折，而能够更加良性、健康、长久的发展下去。
利润跳水，平板提前上演价格血拼
“我们还只是家小公司，现在有点盛名难负。”在深圳南山科技园北区一栋不知名的办公楼内，深圳卓尼斯科技有限公司(Zenithink)的总裁任长红对笔者说道。
这家公司近期因为一篇isuppli的调查报告而处在风口浪尖之上，在这份《美国平板电脑消费者喜爱产品》的调查中，Zenithink品牌在消费者满意度上排名第二，仅次于苹果，也是唯一上榜的中国企业。
对于这项排名，任长红显得相当低调，他表示，目前无论从客户数还是出货量来看，卓尼斯都算不上大公司。
“第一，我们做得比较早，在美国有一定客户积累；第二，还是凭良心做产品，有质量的问题会尽快处理；第三，做好售后服务，定期针对软件做好更新和维护。”任长红认为这些东西可能是卓尼斯上榜的原因，但他觉得这都是很基本的事情，只不过是大多数厂商连这些都没做到而已。“正因为我们没有什么大客户，都是小的品牌，所以我很重视终端客户的体验。”
“去年谁能做出产品谁就能赚钱，今年不一样了。”任长红表示，平板整体的出货量是增长的，但是从世界大的经济环境来看，整体的消费需求是萎缩的，而珠三角制造业的产能是过剩的。他认为目前平板行业不但产能过剩，而且缺乏严格的产品质量控制。其中一个最大的错误观念是“一分钱一分货”，把价格和品质挂钩在了一起，导致产品越是低价，质量和体验越差。“这里有多方面的原因，去年我们认为今年会有一个井喷，现在来看没这么乐观，今年主要是生存下来。”
“利润率在下滑，进来的人多了，竞争也多了。”亿道数码总经理张治宇也认为，市场的爆发期可能要到明年年底。亿道作为ARM开发工具在国内的代理商，很早就开始布局平板MID产品。09年4月份，亿道在香港电子展上展出了第一款采用Marvel平台的Android平板。据了解，这也是业内第一家推出同类产品的公司。遗憾的是，当时市场对这种产品关注度远远不如上网本和电子书，加上当时可选择的平台不多，产品体验也很差。
直到2010年，苹果iPad的推出吸引了所有人的注意，相关的芯片平台也丰富起来。亿道在经过一番评估后，选择了当时在多媒体和3D图形处理方面领先的telechips平台，逐渐在海外市场打开了局面。据透露，目前亿道月出货将近100K，在国内方案公司中非常不错。
导致平板利润跳水的原因有很多，有不少业内人士认为，这是平板的产品特性所决定的。
“平板的门槛很低，比PC和手机都要低。”第一平板电脑网市场总监王诚对笔者表示，现在市面上的平板基本上都是ARM架构的产品，相比X86架构，门槛更低，功耗更低，性能更稳定。“开模容易，构造简单，方案多，最关键的是成本也低。”这就导致越来越多的厂商进来分一杯羹，目前已有上千家平板企业，其中来自PMP行业的厂商杀价最为凶狠。“MP3/4行业已是微利行业，他们刚进这个行业，觉得利润还比较高。”他表示，如果不算这种500元以内的产品，目前整机的利润应该保持在70~100元。
从笔者前期的调查可以发现，目前市面上主流山寨平板的价位保持在700~1000元以内，而MP3/4厂商则将价格压到了500元以内。
除了业内的凶狠的价格血拼，白牌和品牌还面临一个共同的敌人——苹果。
大多数业者不认为白牌平板有和苹果正面冲突的可能，但卓尼斯总裁任长红不这么看。“如果IPAD1降到299美金，而同样配置白牌卖200美金，差个100美金，消费者会选哪个呢？”任长红认为，苹果的市场策略讲究攻守平衡，一方面发布最新一代产品赚取高额利润，另一方面将前一代产品降价，清理库存的同时打击竞争对手。
“苹果现在控制了产业两头的话语权：一个是采购权，一个是定价权；它有这个实力上下通吃。”现在的关键是，苹果有没有这个想法！

除了利润率的下降，整体市场的出货量似乎也没有预期的增长。根据电容屏模组公司力丰电子总经理何穗保的说法，目前平板的量一直不大。“有客人找过我们，一次要个几K，对于屏厂来说，这个量太少了，根本没钱赚。”据他透漏，目前只有一些做行业定制的客户利润比较高。
“目前来看，靠低价占领市场的做法已经越来越困难，这部分产品将会逐渐被淘汰。”深圳本亚电子副总经理王丽表示，其实国内平板厂商是有能力赚取高利润的。她表示，目前本亚推出的定价千元左右平板爱硕在海外特殊渠道卖到了三千元左右，利润之高连她自己都不敢相信。据王丽介绍，本亚目前正在积极开发行业定制市场，她表示刚刚接到大众汽车的订单，将会对其提供车载平板电脑，具体出货量不便透露，但利润相当不错。
产品定义混乱，成熟还需一年时间
根据调查，目前市场上对于平板电脑的称呼十分混乱，“MID、UMPC、XPAD……”同一个产品有好几种叫法，而产品的形态更是五花八门，不同尺寸、不同功能、不同价位都有，让消费者眼花缭乱、无所适从。
“那些600元以下的产品，根本就不能算平板电脑。”奥可视品牌国内营销总监周波认为，这些产品只能算智能MP4/5。“做数码的那帮人在混淆视听，4.3寸、ARM9的东西怎么能叫平板电脑？”他表示，真正的平板电脑CPU主频至少要在1G以上，而且必须采用高分辨率的电容屏，同时支持各种网络功能。
亿道数码总经理张治宇则表示，对于平板，不同的客户有不同需求，不能用一种标准去要求。“ARM的东西产品很多样，有纯娱乐的，有主打上网功能的，有针对办公商务的，纯粹从价格来区分不太容易，这个产品定义需要由消费者来决定”。
尽管在产品具体划分上有些分歧，但是大多数平板厂商都承认，目前整个平板行业的产品还没到成熟阶段，不管用的是哪一款芯片，哪一个系统，哪一种尺寸，都还不稳定。
“七月份之前，没有哪家的产品体验特别好，八月份之后，会有很多的区别。”周波表示，经过一段时间的洗牌，新的平台将会逐渐淘汰老的平台，同时系统的更新也会跟上。
“平板电脑还在萌芽期，我认为离成熟期至少还有一年的时间。”卓尼斯总裁任长红认为整个平板的产品还没有定型，除了苹果iPad，其它所有厂家的产品都还在跟随阶段，包括软件界面都没有定下来。
从市场调查情况来看，目前市场上的平板以7寸、10寸为主两种，A8的产品出货量仍然很大，双核A9，单核主频1.2G配置逐渐成为趋势。除了CPU的配置，电容屏正取代电阻屏成为主流，尽管大多数是支持单点或两点触控的低端产品，而且体验普遍一般。
相对于硬件的升级换代，系统软件的更新则要缓慢得多。目前大部分Android平板仍是用的2.2版本，许多应用需要方案公司来进行优化。不过有一个共识，那就是应用商店已经是平板的必备功能。
“A8还会流行一年左右，A5四核这样的产品什么时候出来，COST能够降到一个什么程度？我觉得要到3.2版本后，这个产品进入一个基本稳定的状态，那时候趋势才会明显。” 亿道张治宇表示。
芯片市场分析，最后剩哪几家？
英特尔一定没想到，当初没被自己放在眼里的平板电脑如今这么有出息；更没想到的是，老对手ARM在移动便携设备领域将自己打得溃不成军后，开始威胁到自己的PC市场。
“消费者的期待在逐渐增加，平板能否取代PC现在还说不好，但是至少在性能上是逐渐靠近的。”任长红表示，到明年ARM15推出后，ARM平板性能基本上可以接近x86架构，到时候英特尔的麻烦才真正开始。而微软宣布WIN8支持ARM，无疑也给了英特尔一记重创。
从目前市场情况来看，平板市场已经成为了ARM芯片的天下。据IC从业人士透露，目前做一款ARM核的芯片只要投入2000万美金；类似宏碁、华硕这样的大公司自己都可以生产。正因为ARM的低门槛，导致平板电脑的芯片供应商比任何行业都要多，同时产品做出来也大同小异，竞争也更加惨烈。
这种情况下，会不会出现类似PC、手机行业一、两家芯片商独大的情况呢？
“IC公司有一个生死线，一个IC一年要是卖不过200万颗的话，这个公司就很难生存”，曾任杰得微电子副总的任长红从事IC行业多年，他认为目前芯片厂商的价格战是必然的，今明两年国内的芯片公司一定会有一个大的洗牌，最后只会剩下2、3家左右。
不少业内人士也表示，由于平板的应用范围太广，目前每个方案都有其优点和缺点，很难出现一个通吃的方案，也很难出现一家独大的情况。
在这种情况下，目前大部分方案都不敢将筹码压到一家供应商身上，大多选择两家供应商。一个主选、一个备选，同时将不同平台的产品交给市场来检验。这种情况下，那些在其它领域拥有渠道和资源的芯片商如Rockchip、VIA往往占据更大优势，也有更大的品牌号召力。
对于目前市面上比较主流的ARM平台，笔者整理了多家厂商的评论和观点，希望给大家一个比较直观的认识和判断(不代表笔者立场)：
Amlogic晶晨
芯片全称AMLogic 8726-M，采用Cortex-A9单核架构，集成了Amlogic专有的高清视频解码引擎，内嵌Mali-400 GPU，能提供3D游戏性能和1080P全高清视频支持，主频800MHz-1GHz，支持Flash10.1。
数码、电视领域的强者，较早购买ARM9 IP核，3D及全高清视频支持推出也较早，成功的吸引了不少PMP行业的品牌，如蓝魔、台电、智器等品牌。
前期走大客户策略，对于蓝魔等大客户支持较多，逐渐压制其它白牌客户的生存空间，导致白牌客户大量甩货，大打价格战。不少产品走韩国渠道，据说利润很高。
Freescale飞思卡尔
芯片全称iMX515，采用cortex-A8核心，运行主频为800MHz，最高主频能够达到1GHz，集成了视频硬件码核心，最高支持视频720P解码。同时，在软解的能力上，能够最大支持480P。采用了adreno 200GPU，支持OpenGL ES2.0/1.1，可应付一般3D游戏。
由于对RMVB视频格式支持较差，国内出货一般，功耗较高，但也有一些出货不错的企业，比如E人E本。
Viatech威盛
威盛WM8505采用的是65nm工艺，在主频上为300MHz，最大内存支持仅为128M，同时也不支持3D加速和视频硬解。8650将主频提升到了800 MHz，并且支持720P视频。
威盛成立了威信科电，专门针对平板市场。在山寨市场，威盛凭借超低价格，占据了大量市场。从目前来看，威盛出货量应该最大。主要针对海外市场，性能体验什么的自然就谈不上了。8505这款芯片方案在性能上非常的弱，没有多媒体的处理，就连基本的网页浏览，也会显得比较的卡，飞触第一代是其代表。
威盛8650有多糟，可以看看某厂商的广告
8650做了一定性能上的改进，但是体验很糟糕。唯一的优势就是价格，散热和功耗方面都异常的差，号称是800MHz的主频，可是性能比8505却提升有限，系统虽然升级到Android 2.2，也支持Flash，可是体验较差。
由于威盛采用Turn-Key模式，留给方案公司发挥的空间不大，目前毕耐、和强迪讯、东周科技都是其方案商
Infotmic盈方微
盈方微IMAPx210一款基于ARM11内核的处理器。其内部集成了2D/3D图形处理、视频处理、音频处理、显示处理和缩放等多个硬件加速器。视频加速器支持1080P视频的解码。另外IMAPx210还集成了硬件2D/3D图形加速器，可以满足一般的特效需求。IMAPx210采用TSMC 65nm低功耗CMOS工艺，CPU主频可达1Ghz。卓尼斯做的飞触二代采用的这一方案。
目前市面上采用盈方微平台的厂商越来越少，据说是因为其对渠道的管控不力。赛维天创、宗冠、发掘都是其方案客户。
IMAPx220结构图
Telechips泰西普
Telechips TCC8803主控芯片，属于Cortex-A8架构，主频1GHz，其内置Mali-200 GPU；RAM配备了512MB，ROM配备了4GB；屏幕参数为7英寸800×480像素，电容触摸面板；Android 2.3系统，支持WiFi无线连接。
韩国telechip TCC89系列方案也是众多入门级平板竞相采用的一款方案，如乐天派GPad701、智器V系列，酷比魔方U6等，都采用了这种方案。Telechips虽然在国际上是老牌，但在国内市场上先天不足，白牌渠道方面需要积累。目前来看，8803由于同类产品较多，所以市场表现不如预期；但8902从规格来看，性能处于主流水平，能够应付大部分应用。
目前国微、亿道电子等方案公司均采用telechip的方案。
Telechips TCC8902
Nvidia英伟达
Nvidia Tegra2是英伟达在进军处理器领域后的重磅力作，堪称现在平板领域内的顶尖产品，现在许多顶级的Android平板和手机产品，都采用了这款CPU。它基于40nm工艺制作，拥有两个主频达到1GHz的核心，内存支持512M/1GB，支持Android2.2以上系统版本，在性能表现上十分的强劲，不过价格较为昂贵。Tegra2基本上代表了高端平板的一个方向。
目前采用Tegra2的方案公司不多，国微、本亚、创智成、时代电子等都有采用，但出货不多。
Nvidia Tegra
Rockchip瑞芯
瑞芯微RK2818主频624MHz，可支持最高分辨率为1024*600像素，不支持1080P高清视频播放，目前普遍应用在中低端产品上，例如原道N6、蓝魔W9等，很多都已经降到了500元以下的价格。
RK2918 采用ARM Cortex-A8架构，主频达到1.2GHz。该方案还内置了2D/3D图形GPU加速处理器，支持OpenGL2.0，在3D效果方面相对同类产品有较大的提升。此外，还支持全部主流视频格式的1080P编解码。
RK2818/19是目前比较主流的方案。瑞芯在PMP渠道拥有很大的号召力，市场宣传也做得很到位。前期由于跳票太多，一直没有量产，导致部分客户信心不足转头其它平台(比如蓝魔)。对于瑞芯来说，PMP市场正在急剧萎缩，能否抓住平板市场机会非常重要。
瑞芯目前除了自己充当大方案商角色外，与其合作的方案商也教多，如嘉利诚、和天创、佳音时代、天启、天智伟业等。
Nvidia Tegra
后记
除了以上平台，其它例如高通、合智、君正、安凯、中星微等都有推出基于ARM架构的平板方案，但从目前来看还不是主流，就不一一列举了。
据业内人士称MTK的平板方案下半年将推出，以其在山寨市场的影响力来看，非常值得期待。而在未来的3G、4G市场中，高通也有可能出现颠覆整个市场格局。
业内人士普遍认为，芯片商洗牌就在明年二、三季度。
据本文截止前，业界爆发了不少重磅新闻，一个是Google收购了MOTO；一个是惠普刚刚宣布放弃了Webos和平板电脑项目；另一个是英特尔成立3亿美元的Ultrabook(超极本)基金，扶助PC厂商和周边设备厂商，全力推广超极本。
这几个新闻似乎给平板电脑的前景增添了几分不确定性，深圳白牌平板的真正机会，或者市场前进的真正轨迹，恐怕还要过一段时间才能真正显现。
前言
日前笔者在“山寨平板性能不山寨，华强北卧虎藏龙”一文中对于平板电脑渠道和产业现状进行了初步调查，得出了一些结论，也留下了不少疑问。没想到有不少业内朋友发来邮件进行交流，还有提供相关产业资料的，这里笔者要说一声，非常感谢！

RK2818/19是目前比较主流的方案。瑞芯在PMP渠道拥有很大的号召力，市场宣传也做得很到位。前期由于跳票太多，一直没有量产，导致部分客户信心不足转头其它平台(比如蓝魔)。对于瑞芯来说，PMP市场正在急剧萎缩，能否抓住平板市场机会非常重要。
瑞芯目前除了自己充当大方案商角色外，与其合作的方案商也教多，如嘉利诚、和天创、佳音时代、天启、天智伟业等。
Nvidia Tegra
后记
除了以上平台，其它例如高通、合智、君正、安凯、中星微等都有推出基于ARM架构的平板方案，但从目前来看还不是主流，就不一一列举了。
据业内人士称MTK的平板方案下半年将推出，以其在山寨市场的影响力来看，非常值得期待。而在未来的3G、4G市场中，高通也有可能出现颠覆整个市场格局。
业内人士普遍认为，芯片商洗牌就在明年二、三季度。
据本文截止前，业界爆发了不少重磅新闻，一个是Google收购了MOTO；一个是惠普刚刚宣布放弃了Webos和平板电脑项目；另一个是英特尔成立3亿美元的Ultrabook(超极本)基金，扶助PC厂商和周边设备厂商，全力推广超极本。
这几个新闻似乎给平板电脑的前景增添了几分不确定性，深圳白牌平板的真正机会，或者市场前进的真正轨迹，恐怕还要过一段时间才能真正显现。

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
玩转Android安卓，新手入门索引贴
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)

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.

flash lite for vpad 7
but there is a subsitute
Full Adobe Flash (which runs on ARM v7 CPUs with Android 2.2) will work for all Flash apps/applets as well as video.
Flash Lite runs on devices that don't meet the requirements for full Flash (like our vpad 7s) either due to an ARM v6 CPU or Android 2.1
Flash Lite will work for (most) Flash-based videos, but not for apps or applets.
why viewpad 7 can not run flash 10
Keep as a records
more explain in
http://androidforums.com/viewsonic-tablets/344403-viewsonic-viewpad-7-faqs.html
Adobe Flash is not supported on ARM11v6 architecture.

I have a DX and need windows to SBF. Plus the vpad 7 has GPS, where the vpad 10 doesn't. So having it all would just be perfect! Good luck guys. You're pioneers.
No, despite the similar names, the Vpad 7 and 10 are not related at all.
The Vpad 10 has an Intel atom CPU and runs android x86.
The vpad 7 runs a more standard arm 11 CPU that windows can't run on.
Later YS Koh told me that all android need to be at least ARM7 archectiture in order to run flash. This can be found from android system infor.apk under CPU detail

Link2SD
Yestersday I was able to run Link2SD on blanked 2G SD card
Today I was too haste and try to move partition on existing 16Gb SD card
(that I force shutdown during fdisk)
it still can be accessible but not recognize by link2SD
So mission suspend and need to plan for the migration
or have to wait to buy another 32 Gb SD card during june PC Show
There are few things to prepare as viewpad go for second factory reset again
1. The Access Point Names for Singtel
brief as
APN = e-ideas
Username = 65ideas
password = 65ideas
(without APN the USB tethering will connect but fails to login)
2. Few app need to download first eg
link2SD
app2SD
but problem is update for Maps, Gmail etc will auto download
and it is unstoppable
3. The USB connect with PC may need to reset
So best way is to reset the PC
then Un-install the viewpad PC tool
but plug out and plug in the USB
The RUT ADB driver will auto install
(please remember to press next button)
4. I may need a copy of ubuntu CD to
the two partitions on SD card
So I will continue blog on process of link2SD trial process

How to Factory Reset an Android Phone
A friend just gave me their Android phone and it has some of their old data and loaded software and programs they have on. How can I reset the Android phone to factory settings and make it so it is completely brand new? I want to remove all settings and downloaded applications.
Wow, keep that friend! Who ever gives someone else an Android phone is a good friend in my book! To reset the phone to factory settings, we’ll go into the settings options of your phone and do a couple quick clicks to get it to reset itself.
First, be sure that all the emails, messages, programs, data (contacts…etc) are backed up on that phone because they will not be able to be retrieved once the phone is formatted.
Resetting a phone with factory settings is like getting the phone brand new from the wireless provider. It cannot be redone and will require re-activation when it reboots.
To reset an Android phone, go into the “Settings” options of the phone (usually a link in the All Programs). Look for Privacy and at the bottom there is an option to Factory Data Reset. If you click this, it will confirm your selection and remind you there is no turning back after.
Update: On some new Android devices, it may be under the SD & Phone Storage >> Factory Data Reset
Once you have selected to confirm your choice, just sit back and wait for the phone to reset itself; it will look similar to starting up and powering on the phone as you normally do!

AntTek Application Manager
After root, there are few apps that I can use
I have tried out AntTek today
as even after root, System App Mgr can uninstall update for Aldiko and gmail
but can not totally remove them
so when I saw AntTek with delete option
I hesitate and try
For Aldiko, System said it still got 660Mb on PM
After delete, the App2SD clear up 440Mb memory
BTW, after install either AntTek, Titanium, Link2SD etc
App2SD only show five app on PM
Maps, Market, Youtube Bluetooth toggle widget and Retro clock
(Later it seem the work of Move2SD Enabler)
(Later InforFile App2SD do show/register last two app
and system App mgr also show these two are hardcore not able to move to SD)
Many others have been hidden are MPE, iLock, AL II,Lost phone, hotmail etc
It seem that I install too many powerful apps last night that I have to
explore slowly
Last of all, last night or this morning in order to install those apps I have to uninstall Aldiko to install those apps below
AntTek App Manager Root0.97 164.62 KB Today, 10:02
ROM Manager4.2.0.2 1.77 MB Today, 09:51
Titanium Backup 2.07 MB Today, 09:21 3:08:00 AM
Move2SD Enabler 0.9.6 beta 74.61 KB Today, 02:06
Root System Tool Free 368.07 KB Today, 02:03 3:04:06 AM
Link2SD 138.14 KB Today, 01:54
The amount of PM last night the max 30Mb down to 25Mb today
So this blog is to record the process
On the latter date, I check on one of the app hotmail that not shown on App2SD
I clear the clache of 32 kb and move it to SD
now the PM show there is on 8kb
but no longer register under APP2SD
Luckily, App2SD by infofile is ok
It is rather confusing, so I may write a separate blog

Singtel e-ideas SMS/MMS portal
As I transfer SIM to my ShanZai hp
few thing I find out
I was lucky to bounce into Singtel e-ideas SMS/MMS portal
Initially, I used the old Internet SMS for me to send message last time
when I using those numeric pad keyboard.
http://sms.singtel.com/internetsms/
Even when I got E65/E72 I still like to use that services
But later I dun like as
1) Internet SMS can only SMS to singtel customers only
2) It send a long initial message to recipent
It can not send to China telco too
but I can use it to send SMS while I am in China
and receive on my hp
Recent, I have been trying with Singtel SMS plus services
but none seem to be very appealing
By chance, I spot this Internet SMS platform on E-ideas
It solve my last two problems above
Just I also set to a password that is easy to remember than
Singtel numeric reset password given
(If not, just call *43327 and you can reset the password immediately)
I dun know why they are still keeping the old system
But I hope to see more E-ideas services that being offer
One word of advice is to lower the eXplorer services as
SingTel should charge the business owner rather than the consumer
SingTel will only able to beat Starhub if only it can offer better content
and services to its subscribers

I have the original dumps, as well as an update.zip that will install the stock firmware via CW recovery.
If you don't have CW recovery installed you may be able to do a factory recovery:
Hold down both volume keys. Press the reset button.
Quickly hold down the power button until you see the birds and 'enter recovery' at the top left hand corner. Try recovering from the menu.
-------------------------------------------------------
Can you enter the "recovery mode"?
you should try "wipe data\factory set".
If it doesn`t work,you should download a rom here and after unziped rename it "firmware.nb0" then move it to your sdcard. Enter "recovery mode"slete the last one"download from sdcard..." download " FM6-316R-0-0015-A01_VSI.part1.rar"&" FM6-316R-0-0015-A01_VSI.part2.rar"

China ShanZai Android HP
Last Saturday, I went to Sim Lim Sq for window shopping again
I got a call from Eric and I have to rush back AMK
Then something caught my eyes It is not the pretty gal but she selling China Android ShanZai HP
Remember my last blog on a N8 body phone with 12M camera and one thing it fall short is Android OS !! She said this Android hp just came this week (later the other gal said the same)
This is running on Android 2.2 !
It pack with lot of app most of all it got market installed (She said original OS will come with market while other will not ...)
The internal memory still got 252 MB (Initially I mistaken as 2 GB!)
It has different forms but the common that I seen at both booth has a iphone type body as they claim to be the fastest screen response
It has only 3.5" screen and one big menu button too bad it seem not able to use as up down navigation Then it has four standard android option hard keys
It beat Hua Wei S7 as it got double SIM cards The other thing it got another TV antenna but I mistaken as styllus which I more prefer
As for camera I think it should be only 3M only
The OS seem to be tweet to have SIM A & B call then it got schedule power shutdown and up option
It has tethering but too bad it is only USB option only
The first booth offer at SGD 260, the second first quote at SGD 230
Still too expensive then Hua Wei S7 offer at IT show at SGD 188
Then I met with Eric and told him about it
Eric show me his another latest ShanZai phone and only cost him half the price
But of course, the other story is that the new phone bundle with China SIM card
Anyway Eric offer to give me his old ShanZai HP
So later I told John Min not to purchase Lenovo LePad before he fly to TianJin on Monday
Anyway I got the old ShanZai phone on Monday night
It is very bad but it is free Eric even give me four batteries that he has invest in it
The SIM card B is buried below SIM card A
which I find it is not good if I only used one card
It is using proprietary USB slot on the hp and connection is bad
but it read out incoming call numbers which is unique but disturbing
Seem that I need to bear with it until I find a way to buy a ShanZai Android HP
IT must have Android 2.2 root enabled with tethering hotspot
one or more normal mini USB slot
A HDMI output to sceen
Swapable SD card up to 32 Gb
4"large screen with styllus
Internal memory of 2Gb
8M or more camera

system app at boot up
Last night try to config few android during boot up.
Some success and some failure
As the full objective are not completed yet
I have remove [battery status bar] as it run on PM
I put in [battery details] as thought can be run on SD but fail
Then I realised the first principle of Android 2.2
As Android boot up
Viewpad 7 has the "advantage" of slow start up
you will see those apps in SD will available later with their own icon
So those app need to be in the startup list must be in the PM !!
but how [call meter NG] able to do the job well ?
I have put the [3G watchdog] out too
but I should have export the data first
If I got space again, I will consider to bring back the wonder dog
Then I need to reinstall [ZDbox] and [Android Assistant]
[ZDbox] just update at the same time
It act the battery status and active app
but I use it to show active app as it the only app that can do it
It will be tracking the 3G usage but may not accurate as
3G watchdog has been monitoring it and it show I have used up 1.2G during these 5 day
It can also mute my hp at midnight ... will check it is work later
i later try private browser and it can edit blog in html mode under IE mode
[Android Assistant] does not auto start even on PM
It has the features of "msconfig" - to control the startup list
but it does not seem working - so wait for the update
at present, I run ZDbox after boot up and app seem to be about 10 apps
then run battery details
and maybe Android Assistant will come in handy later

USB ADB connection
As mentioned in the FJ software forum website
I initial not able to find the USB connection to the MyPhoneExplorer software drivers
later I found it under the CD partition that appear when connect to the viewpad 7
Furthermost I notice there is a different in the ADB driver in ViewSonic and HTC
With the HTC sync there is possible that a USB and HDD storage connection can be
appear at the same time
While in viewsonic , once the storage mode is chosen
Those programs or data stored in SD will be locked not able to be accessed
So interestingly to check to check those in the phone memory
Once in this mode, are those applications appear in the all program

recalibrate battery ?
ViewSonic viewpad 7 seem to be problem with battery reading
However, I just want to record when I try to charge the battery and saw a highest of 4202 mV
This is after I done the recalibration excercise After turn on after full charger and left the charger on I run the overcharge only and saw that record
While I wrote this blog during the Channel 8 news the reading go up and down and may for example stay at 4188 mV Other the old battery software
There is another integrated software mini Info It has a dashboard that show all system infor Furthermore, when press on battery chart then the battery infor will appear. Most of all, it contain almost all system settings that need to display and to be configured on one mini screen

one day with iphone 3GS
Remember Eric has brought a Dell streak so he lent me his old iphone 3GS hp only
I have to find a iphone charger at home and so I left it charge for 3 hours
In the noon time I start explore to play with it.
Here goes small of the problems
1. I need to search on line on how to take out the sim card
I have to improvise to use a safety pin
2. The speaker was working fine but I try to call to iphone but no sound
I change the setting and it sounds ok
After some struggle and call my friend who keep telling me to adjust the volume button
After half and hour, I suspect and toggle the "switch" on top of the volume button
and it works !
Apple actually create a mute button. As compare HTC use more inovative to flip
the hp over to mute
3. With one button, I was struggle with the back button
just like first time play with MAC looking for right option button
It take me a while to understand the whole IOS application screen layout design too
However, it remind me of old nokia menu system where you need to down or up the application selection
And the screen must have a back and forward option to end the selection
so there is waste on top header and bottom footer. Screen will be limited.
4. I still locating font and size for the display
as I struggling to see web content
missing again HTC auto sizing of web content as I zoom up the size
While wiki web page was also not able to enlarge in size
5. at 3pm the apple drain out all battery.
Apple is very accurately and the power disappear after 3 %
while I half way in writing reply to Eric
During the five minute I struggle to power on again
but iphone refuse for 3 minute to power on after it was about 5% charge
This is unacceptable for emergency purpose
Similaryly, iphone is same power hungry as HTC desire
BUT I like the simple battery % on the notification header
Android win by able to modify the notification header
6. The keyboard I have not figured out how to turn on the CAPS lock
7. Apple still require Google Map for the free map
but I was not able to find a free Navigation software on apple store
I think I write too much and it is old new as there are other complaints
on the Internet already.
With point 4 I think I need a bigger physical screen due to my
老花眼= old-sightedness (presbyopia)
My choice is seem to be only viewsonic viewpad 7

how to reconfig HuaWei (SingTel) wireless dongle
Last PC show or CITEX, I met this guy
and he explain about why so wifi tablet not able to use USB 3G dongle
Simply because those dongle when plug in will be recognize as harddisk
rather than modem
This clearly explain why some HuaWei modem stick will work and some dun
This time I met the maybe the same guy again at IT Show
even thought this time there are no other China or India ShanZai hp vendor
Abiko still bring in four models of ShanZai tablet
one of which will on clear ICA custom by today
He share again on this concept and show me online
With the hint, I do a search and found
http://3g-modem.wetpaint.com/page/executing+AT-commands+under+Windows
I am going to try on my dongle to see if it can be reconfigured
as most important I try on Viewpad 7 with the unconfigured dongle
and it is fails
so I going to prepare before I test on Sunday before I purchase
If not I would have to purchase the ShanZai tablet Freescale A8 instead
Daniel is also using a HTC Hero where he jail break to 2.2 and even 2.3
He show me that he overclock it too
I believe that vendor like viewsonic or Palladine should employ this kind of people
(there is rumor in the Net that saying Palladine buy off selve ShanZai tablet
and brand it under its name and so does not support further)
It is the value added service that differentiate for a ignorant company
As an example, this is so simple
I download PUTTY and figured out the com8 that being used
Just connect via Singtel Broadband on Mobile software that store in the HuaWei E180 CD flash memory
and follow the instruction inside
Then REMEMBER you have to disconnect Singtel broadband
Start Run D:\temp\download\putty.exe
Follow the instruction to select to COM8
At the blank DOS screen type ATZ
if there is OK response
try ATI
or other like in http://3g-modem.wetpaint.com/page/common+AT-commands
But just Lastly do the following for this model
AT^U2DIAG=0
OK
(check out http://3g-modem.wetpaint.com/page/Huawei+AT-commands)
Safety Remove Hardware DRIVE that is for HuaWei
If dun understand just reboot and remove the dongle
The PC will recognize the HuaWei again with new configuration
(This will be explain later)
Then after that re-insert
Then open explorer and you will not find the CD Drive for HuaWei anymore
Now the HuaWei will start up as a modem and PC UI interface (UI)
and no more NAND-flashmemory drive (CD)
This is the configuration that will be work for E180
This blog can end here, the following is just further discussion
I double confirm by going through the process
On my PC, the new configuration is using COM24
then I try
AT^U2DIAG=1
Which turn on modem and CD
In the window explorer I can see the singtel CD drive on HuaWei again
So this confirm
n=0 is seem that best configuration for me now
I can use the re-configured E180 to test on viewsonic and A8 and palladine on Sunday !!
and he explain about why so wifi tablet not able to use USB 3G dongle
Simply because those dongle when plug in will be recognize as harddisk
rather than modem
This clearly explain why some HuaWei modem stick will work and some dun
This time I met the maybe the same guy again at IT Show
even thought this time there are no other China or India ShanZai hp vendor
Abiko still bring in four models of ShanZai tablet
one of which will on clear ICA custom by today
