Bluepanther Thunder 7" Marvell Tablet with GPS, Android 2.2

[bonze04]

Hi Folks, I have received my GM10 and already made a mistake : change the framework.apk and add twframework.apk in /system/framework : Result animation boot screen loopback forever.

Fortunatly, USB works and I was abble to roll back to previous version with the magic adb command line.

First of all, you'll have to root the device with the magical SuperOneClickv1.7



What do I see in settings :

Model : GM10(only for test)
Android version : 2.2.1
Kernel version : 2.6.34-generic-EN-IVT-bf3703-20110217 rootdylan-desktop (CodeSourcery
Build Number : GM10 V2.5-BT_test 2.2.1 en.root.20110217.111316 test-keys


So now let's see wath is working :

Camera : Ok
Wifi : Ok
BlueTooth : Ok
GSP : Ok (Copilot Live 8)
USB : Ok (have to change softwares to manage USB photos and musics via /mnt/usb)


What is NOT working

- Android Market : Don't show everything on the market (try to find skype for ex.)
- Can't find a flash player that works (however installed lite pluggin)
- No VOIP software (no skipe for ex.)
- No Live Wallpaper

What softwares I use

- LaucherPro instead of Launcher2
- Copilot 8 with all maps (EU,NA,AF,OC)
- QuickPic to browse images from USB
- RockPlayer Lite to browse musics from USB
- AK Notepad
- Terminal Emulator (usefull when not connected with my PC)
- Clinometer (not fast enought but ...)
- File Expert (everyday file management)
- Root Explorer (special file management)
- Zedge (wonderfull library of wallpapers and others)
- Some games
- Some widgets to toggle BT,Wifi etc ...

Tip
You'd better remove the phone.apk that drain the battery dramaticaly.

That's all

apart from the gps this tablet is a hunk of junk, should have spent my money on a flytouch 3 from the start......

Could you be more specific, please?

well first i was told that it would support flash 10.1 which it does not... i mean i thought the whole point of android 2.2 was the advantage of flash support. Secondly i was told it would play 3d games, which it does not, flat out playing tom the speaking cat....it wont run skype, a lot of the favorite apps i had on my old flytouch 2 seem to be unavailable for this tablet, cant even get my usual radio app running. Oh yes one last thing, i ordered a white tablet which the seller confirmed, and yep you guessed it they sent me a black one.... Its been lies from the word go, as i said, used a gps not bad little device but for fun no where near as good as a flytouch...

Then not the tablet is junk, but your vendor who lie about this tablet. Big difference! This tablet will not support flash and 3D games as its processor is too weak and does not have graphic co-processor.

well that will teach me to be more informed next time....

At this price point, there is really little to complain about for the GM10...

i dont know about that, for the same money i could have got a flytouch 3, faster, bigger and will run all the applications this wont....

So the main point for a Tablet being able to run applications or not is the processor? What would you guys recommend as the minimum processor to have these days? and what would be ideal?
