Make sure you are rooted, and that adb recognises the device.
Type the following to download the build.prop file to your harddrive:
adb -d pull /system/build.prop
Open the build.prop file with a text editor and set the following properties as follows:
dalvik.vm.heapsize=32m
ro.sf.lcd_density=160
ro.kernel.android.checkjni=0
And add the following line at the end
dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:fast
Save it, and type the following to send the file back to the device.
adb -d remount
adb -d push build.prop /system/build.prop
adb -d reboot
If you get any error messages after the "adb -d remount" line, then you do not have root...
Edit: fixed missing '=' sign in the 'dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:fast' line...
Hello Alexandros!
ReplyDeleteI have learnt from your blog that you have a HSG X5A-G tablet.
This is the model I am about to buy, but I have some doubts. Maybe you could help me:
1. I think this model has a microphone and a webcam... but, is videocall supported? in skype or other messaging program?
If not, can you make a voice conference, just audio? (voip)
2. Does it support srt subtitles while watching a movie? (this is essential for me)
If yes, can you change size of subtitle, or color or delay some time the subtitle?
3. Last one (you can avoid this one) :)
Have you tried playing games with scummvm, like monkey island, indiana jones, etc?
I would love to re-play them and I was wondering how the experience is in this touch-screen devices.
Thank you in advance!
Hi!
ReplyDeleteRegarding your questions:
1. It has a microphone, but no camera.
2. It depends on the video playback application you are using. By default no, but there are apps (like mVideoPlayer) which do support them.
3. Actually I am not sure. I know I fired up scummvm on it but I can't remember how it went :). The main problem with touchscreen in Scummvm is how to handle right click. You might want to have a look here: http://forums.scummvm.org/viewforum.php?f=17
Also, another place to ask questions about this tablet is the slatedroid forum (http://www.slatedroid.com/index.php?showforum=87). There are more people there to help you :)

Thank you for your quick reply!
ReplyDeleteAnd very useful links too!
About the camera, I think the reviewer in youtoube was wrong (he was pointing a small hole in the device (right upper corner in landscape mode) and said it was the camera ¿?¿)
That is the power LED :)
