how do i change the wallpaper of my lock screen in ur rom?
I can't figure out , sorry for the noob question

Actually I'm not sure.

If you edit /init.smdkv210.rc and delete the line that says "setprop au.ui.lockscreen aigo" (or something like that), it will use the standard lock screen which uses the same wallpaper as your home screen.

@Incaico

After installing, there should be a file named "log.txt" on your sdcard.
Can you post it?

OK, looks like it installed fine.

You say it kept going through the upgrade process when you left your sdcard inside?
Maybe your HOME button is stuck down?

Next, I'd check if it works without the prox32 tweaks.
They might be causing the boot to hang.

About donations, I really do appreciate the offer, but I'm not accepting donations right now.

Hmm... now I'm having some wifi issues with this firmware.

I think within the next couple of days I will release another one based on the Alldro2 firmware.
lfom and nefirim seem to be using it with good results.

So far, so good. I just need a HC theming and I will be very happy. The one from your custom firmware looks good but I had to disable "aigo" screenlock, it wouldn't let me unlock it. lol

Edit -> I had to make some modifications to the additional apks installation section of the script. I had to create "app" folder and change permissions after copying the files. Something like this (I opted to adapt your script, but it should be easy for you to get the modifications):

Code:
if [ -e /mnt/mmc/update/apk/ ]; then
    APKS="$(find /mnt/mmc/update/apk/ -name "*.apk")"
    if [ -n "$APKS" ]; then
        mkdir /mnt/mtd/app
        echo "Installing additional apks..." > /dev/tty0
        for i in $APKS ; do
            cp $i /mnt/mtd/app/
        done
        chown 1000:1000 /mnt/mtd/app
        chmod 771 /mnt/mtd/app
        chown 1000:1000 /mnt/mtd/app/*
        chmod 644 /mnt/mtd/app/*
    fi
fi

Thank you very much!

I really should have tested the apk installation before releasing the script :eek:

edit: here's the code I ended up using
Code:
if [ -e /mnt/mmc/update/apk/ ]; then
    APKS="$(find /mnt/mmc/update/apk/ -name "*.apk")"
    if [ -n "$APKS" ]; then
        mkdir -p /mnt/data/app
        chmod 0771 /mnt/data/app
        echo "    * Installing additional apks..." | tee -a $LOG_FILE > /dev/tty0
        for i in $APKS ; do
            echo "        - Installing $i..." >> $LOG_FILE
            cp $i /mnt/data/app/ 2>>$LOG_FILE
        done
        chown -R 1000:1000 /mnt/data/app
        chmod 0644 /mnt/data/app/*
    fi
fi

Took it apart as much as I could, little compressed air, left the prox32 tweaks, reloaded and...All is good now! Seems quicker and before and very slick looking.

Thanks again for the help!!

Hi there.

I've been following this thread since it started, but never posted cuz i'd lost my password xD.
Flashed my tab with de EV rom. Everything working fine. hadn't tha chance to connect to HDMI to test, but i will trust ya it works xD. Just go a freeze some days ago, all buttons worked but tha touchscreen wasnt responding. soft-reset, it worked. No problems. I will test some tweek on it and i will share results. BTW, that rom is overclocked? previous CFW were OC.

Keep it up mates,
See ya

What ROM are you using? The ones based on the AllDro2 firmware (Gingerbread) should work just fine...

Just a guess, it happened to me once and it was something as simple as recalibrating in the game settings. In other words, in Options some racing games let you define the accelerometer properties (for example in GT Racing in my case). You may check this out in the control settings in the game... Hope it works...

Hey everyone, has anyone had any issues with the wireless not working when you apply a theme? I've created my own custom one and even tried the HC UI and both seem to kill the wireless. basically I can turn it on, it will find networks, but when i try to connect, it sits there for about 45 seconds, then automatically turns off. any time I try to turn it back on, it will just stay on for about 30 seconds and turn back off. This is throwing a serious kink in my next update, but I don't want to release it with that big of a bug. I have tried all my tweaks and updates and it works perfectly without any theme applied, so I know it has to do directly with that.

OK here it is for testing
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17126237/coby/703_gingerbread_2.3.17_20110924_test.zip
md5: db16ff4122fd69246097852a91cd1e61

Still unfinished but I can't work on it anymore today.

If you have a bluetooth dongle, it'd be great if you could let me know if bluetooth works.

Based on 703 gingerbread firmware.

Changes:
-using u-boot.bin and utscript from official Coby firmware
-using kernel and utmodules from Alldro2 firmware
-added Honeycomb UI from 1010 firmware
-lcd_density=160
-samsung fingerprint
-hardware-accelerated ui rendering
-custom utscript.sh based on Fonix232's upgrade system
-added latest Market (3.2)
-rooted (Superuser 3.0.5)
-accelerometer fix
-probably other stuff I forgot (check patches)

To disable Honeycomb UI:
-Edit launcher.inf in update folder
-Change "honeycomb" to "stock"

Thanks:
flxrms (samsung fingerprint)
jmv_10 (telling us about Alldro2 firmware)
rain (telling me about 3.2 Market leak and new haipad firmware)
lfom (accelerometer fix)
fonix232 (upgrade system)
Other members of android tablets forum for the tips and advice.

Hello Steev, Thank you for the great work.

One question, it is possible to include the Honeycomb theme from the 703 to the Evo v2 firmware?

It should work.

Just copy update/launcher/honeycomb/ to the Evo firmware and edit launcher.inf to say "honeycomb"
