Hellmerong updates apad custom firmware to v0.3

APAD Custom firmware v0.3 (Updated June 7th)

« on: June 02, 2010, 07:33:38 AM »

THIS ONLY WORKS WITH THE 2.0 VERSION OF THE aPAD (THE ONE WITH A WEBCAM). DO NOT FLASH THIS ROM ON A VERSION 1.0 aPAD (WITHOUT WEBCAM).
This is my third apad firmware. It's base on last hybrid firmware v0.1.
Some important issues are solved.

Main features
- Based on 0530 official firmware, use lastest archos firmware as much as possible.
- Rooted, adb and debug on
- All Google stuffs of apad are working. (market, calendar, talks, maps...)
- Camera works.
- Some applications that didn't work on original firmware work well. (ACV, robo defense...)
- fixed : If application set as fullscreen mode, It works well. Status bar is not forced.
   (If you want to use status bar always. Do not use this firmware)
- fixed : Auto orientation works properly :D , But G-sensor is still malfunction. It seems to be fixed in driver or abstraction layer.
Included application
- Google stuffs of apad
- Advanced Task Killer Free
- Superuser
- Acomic viewer
- AppLib (archos market app)
- Deezer
- eBuddy
- ColorNote
- ES File Explorer
- iReader
- Aldiko reader
- MarketEnabler
- SlideMe
- Youtube
- Korean keyboard.
Remained problems
- display on/off button works as display off only, you should use menu or home button as display on button.
- After sleeping a long time, the display will not switch on just by pressing the menu button. Press the main button followed by the menu button to wake up
- You should recalibrate touchscreen after every reboot. (exit from sleep mode is ok)
After updating firmware, USB cable should be removed to calibrate touchpad.
To set date & time, you should run "market" and set date & time at initial setting of market
Then you can change "date & time" on main setting menu (thanks to donaldson)
