Hi,

just hoping for some advice regarding the ROM's. I note at the start of the topic that the ROM is now at 4E however it states that for those 16GB tablets to use the old v3 ROM. Is this still the case, and if so, why?

Sorry, wrong topic!
 
hi i have installed tims 2b on my flytouch 3 and it worked great i have installed in on my mates one and the screen dosnt line up its about a cm lower than it should and it over laps on to the top par on the screen any advice
 
I was able to "debrick" my flytouch 3 superpad 2 with these instructions. Only thing I might add is to copy the files to the root of the SD card, not the folders. I copied the folder to the card and it didn't work. I copied the files and it did work. Anyhoo, thanks so very much. WOOHOO!
 
I used Tim's 4e update at Deposit Files and got a firmware upgrade and 3G is now working after I switched it on in Gscript which installed atomatically. Good update even the external keyboard allows @ characters etc which it would not initially. Well recommended upgrade and simple to use. Even the tablet did not start to vibrate insanely.

I believe it is because that version doesn't partition the card properly ie: you don't see all the available space.
 
Tim:
I have a 32GB f/t3 and d/l and installed your upgrade without any problems.
However, when I tried to re-install my market widgets, I got the error message that there was not enough room to install them. What happened? Did you upgrade take that much room? Please advise,

Hi there.

When I first got this device i was kind of frustrated.

Then i started trying new firmware. This thing is getting each time better.

The firmware im using now is the:

0529 NEW FIRMWARE DOWNLOAD which i got on merimobiles.com

I'm satisfied with this firmware, except for the SD CARD issue (cant install app's and use it from the sd card), and other little things, like the screen's brightness, etc...

Think about trying the lastest tim firmware. (4e)

So, anyone has used this firmware and the lastest tim one?
The Tim ones are much better than this one im using now?
Which kind of problems has the tim lastest version?

Thanks!
 
Hi all,
I'm new to the site. My DISCO10 arrived today. Which firmware should I flash it to?

Edit: I used Tim's 5a install as his Flytouch had the same system specs as mine. It works like a charm. It is much faster than the stock setup. My only problem is that the charger they sent with the tablet has a plug that is too small for the tablet, and I have to babysit it to make sure it stays in place.

Hi
Sonny you can-not use use Tims roms on your tablet or any Disco model firmware, you have the lastest upgrade model po41 they is just the firmware that is on your tablet out at moment, roms will be coming very soon for the po41 you just have to wait,you have a new motherboard installed,larger battery,9v charger, better speakers,etc,so when the tweeked roms come they will be a very good tablet
 
i followed all instructions but when i reboot my flytouch with tims v5a it only shows an "android world" logo then a linux penguin then an animated "android world" logo then starts as normal, ive used a freshly formatted card and the only files on it are the boot files, Firmware2 and firmware-discovery, do i put those in a folder of some sort? i cant figure this out help please!

update: ok i think i found out based on the previous post, i also have a p041 and im guessing it wont update because of that, its:

Model: p041
Android: 2.2 v2.6:#4402

hi all,

i just got my flytouch 3. advertised by seller it is INFORTM 1GHz CPU

i have a few questions

1) I check the CPU speed using a free apps in market and it clock at 800MHz. Is this normal?

2) i am running low on disc space and use the "advanced sd card manager" and it manage to find quite a few apps that can be moved to sd card. However, when i click the apps that i want to move, the "move to sd card" is grey color. i have check my other android phone, it is not grey and can be moved

so anyone has any idea how to move to sd?
 
1. Yes.

2. Use Links2sd (only works on disco/disco10 models - not the P041 models that some have, there is no solution as at today for the P041 models iirc)
