[ROM][WIP][AMPE][NOVA] Phoenix A31 1.00

[tragidy]

I finally got my NOVA man this is great news for us owners of the new quad core system

I hope so

Is there any of your work on the SVN on dorkfiles.com yet? many thanks

It is up but not up on an external network interface yet soon bud soon..


Progress is good though, boot has been tweaked for cpu

 

[tragidy]

Ok here you go these files will work.

Copy and paste them into the permissions folder, DO NOT OVERWRITE any original files in the tab, only copy the missing files, the only one you do overwrite is tablet_core_hardware, all other files remain original, otherwise you will break operation of other systems on your tablet.

For me now, tunein radio, gta vice city, gta 3, all show up in android market as device compatible.

I also changed manufacturer to samsung just in case

P.s I got these files from supersport rom for the u30gt tablet.

I had issues using this pack it disables wifi.

 

[tragidy]

I'm hoping to get version 1 of the rom out for testing really soon.

 

[tragidy]

Market files are attached, there may still be some bugs...

Extract to /etc/permissions/
Over-write all existing files.

 

[tragidy]

Should have a test ROM out soon, the image is flashable I'm just doing a pet test before releasing.

I had issues using this pack it disables wifi.

It shouldn't disable anything if you dont replace the wifi permissions

How did you do the gpu fix?
Can you please release a zip file of the system folder or entire Rom for us who don't want to reflash this entirely using pheonix suite and just apply the system changes manually ourselves?

Great job Tragidy, just had a few questions on the rom. Did u notice anything on a power management chip when u were fixing the kernel? Also, how did u assign ram usage? Do the system still only use 512 or 1gb? And lastly did see away to put the gpu at its max of 16 cores? Thanks in advance

Um, yes it is possibe for this gpu to have maximum 16 cores, just like it is possible to an intel I series chips to be dual core or quad core.

Don't you understand that the a31 has only 8 physical cores, as thats what they chose out of the max 16 physical cores they could have.

They can't be "configured" they can only be selected prior to impelemting them in hardware, in this case the a31
