incubus26jc has released a Froyo (Androis 2.2) port for the vogue. This *might* as always work on nike. If you want to give it a shot, here's the original thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=712310
Btw: The vogue community is way faster than g1, still waiting for froyo to hit my device
i have try it, it works for me, and the same bug, difficult to receive call, no bluetooth, no camera. And with the newest kernel - broken sound. Can you fix that kernel?can we ask dzo to fix kernel for Nike user?is there a way to make bluetooth and camera working?
Yeah, lagloose already informed me about the kernel problems. I don't have much time coding atm, but i gave it a quick shot yesterday.
Havent tested it yet as my touch dual is somewhere in a drawer at home and i have to look for it .
If you want to give it a try and report back if it works:
http://84.23.71.227/kerneloftheday/zImage_audiotest
BTW, nice to hear that the rom is working.
€: In principle it should be possible to get the cam and bt to work. I tried to play around with BT, but I was not able to get it working. Must have missed something...
looks like you are the only one who can compile Nike kernel, just contact dzo, he doesn't have time to did it for Nike user, he asked me to find someone who know some C and linux box to make the kernel. maybe we can asked some tips from him and applied it on Nike kernel?
i think the first thing is to make receiving call working, it seems like when using android, it is difficult to make our phone ring when receiving call and why this made we can't use our phone with android.
hope you can spend sometime for this problem, i'm very appreciated your work for Nike communities... thank you very much
testing...
Mblaser, I tested the kernel, touchscren not work!
OK, I will try again tomorrow. Messed up my kernel autobuild and have to fix it first...
sound working for me, it's back to normal again although in highest volume level it is still too loud and the sound is a little broken, but seems find in lower sound level, maybe a little more adjustment to that will make it better.
and just find another thing, i have my receiving call problem solved even i'm activated vibrate function. for now hope mblaster and maxxd01 can make bluetooth and camera working in zimage kernel.
here is what i did:
1. update newest kernel using mblaster kernel with audio bug free from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7021840&postcount=3
2. using phone prioritizer from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=558822
this will make android a much more usability

Are you on nike100?
€: Kernel service up again with audio patch included. Hope verything works now. Niki100 version is also patched now, touchscreen problems seem to be vibration related on niki100 (thats why there is a vibration free version especially for theat phone).

Dear Toshiba Folio 100 user.
I have created this thread to use it as a place it discuss all ideas, suggestions, problems, improvements about this device. In this way we can clean some of the general issues in the Dexter ROM thread.

Applications using the big screen ?
Looking for the best (screen usage) for email and calendar.
The email client in 1.0b is the default one for Android, looking at the email client in Samsung Tab its much better at using the big screen. Also the Folio is much better with white/light background as the "stock" email-client does not have.
Any pointer to a better app ?
The calendar app is much better and uses the screen much better.
Please write about your experiences with apps that works with big screens and works good on the Folio.
/\/\artin
where do you find email client samsung???
Using Startup Manager, would it be possible to disable the phone service or would that result in a nuclear explosion or something like it? i mean, is android dependant on it one way or another, or would it be safe to disable it?
why foliomod ?
Hi to all
mhgonzalez great idea to create this "general" post.
I bought two folio for as Christmas gift, now they are hidden .. but, when I can, I do some test.
I never used android till now but I'm trying to understand why I should install foliomod. During my little usage I didn't find any bug, I only wasn't able to open a ebook (.epub) using the default reader (and I have put the file in the Books folder, anyway) but I suppose it's only because I need to improve my "knowledge".
But at the moment no bugs where find, all the apps installed work properly, wifi it's ok and, after I installed flash plug-in, browsing is ok too.
Not only but I was able to find the few app I saw googoling around the web.
What the folio mod make me able to do more than this ?

That is one of my frustrations. The current email.apk on the folio, as well as the calender, look pretty terrible. In email, I can't even scroll through the different emails, everytime I have to open a message, read, close and open the next. Even on the (rather basic) email.apk on the Galaxy S I have small arrows on top with which I can scroll through to the next or previous message. The Galaxy-TAB email.apk doesn't work (well) on the SGS either.
Also, Samsung have another email-client from com7, I'can;t get that version installed ( a specific Samsung version with great HTML-email-presentation, but alas, missing scroll-arrows also). I'll check the com7-site to see if they have a more general Android version of their email-app and come back on that one.
So if anyone has an other email.apk which works on the Folio, let me know.

Dear Kakkio.
Modding the most important in my case was to be able to download application from Android Market, reason why the Toshiba Market is a joke. It depend on what will you do with the Folio. If it is only to browse internet and reading book, dont mod. If you need more, I recomend to mod.
dear mhgonzalez
tnx for your answer, in a few word you give me axactly the info I needed.
Mainly I'll use the tablet to read, listen music, watch video and browsing... but I like to "play" so, after a few, I'm sure I'll go to install foliomod...
In this moment I'm installing android emulator on my ubuntu in order to get a little bit more involved.

I quote a post from "pekka91166" from the dexter section because I think is perfect for this section ...
"...I agree with one of the earlier posts on Android (especially Tegra2) tablets versus others, including iPad.
If you're simpoly looking for a tablet which works and works very well, get yourself an iPad. And accept it's a pretty much closed OS.
If you're looking for a working Android tab, go for the SGT, although I'm not sure how well the TAB is working.
With all these tegra2 tablets, we're in for some disturbing months. Right now, these products all seem to suffer from pre-release firmwares which haven't been adapted well enough to the powerful (and partly cheap) hardwarechoices the various suppliers have chosen.
In the case of the Folio100, I knew very well I was buying a product with factory-default rubbish FW, but after reading Dexter's posts I figured it was worth trying, playing, failing and reinstalling.
All in all, I'm happy with the Folio, it's definitely NOT the product is should become, but pretty decent workeable and, last but nost least, FUN (and irritating at the same time).
I just hope Toshiba will, at some point, come with an acceptable FW AND that, in the meantime, Dexter and others will be able to cook some nice firmwares based on 2.2.
The Folio FEELS at some point very powerful, so the Tegra2 should be able to perform, but most of the times it seems lazy. For me a clear indication its the firmware of the machine. Unfortunately, it's a bit the same with a Galaxy S-phone. Powerhouse, but the firmware (2.2) is yet not there to unleash the full power.
Let's hope we'll get 2.3 running on our Tosh and that it supports dual-cores. I expect until then we'll have a nice (and often frustrating) toy to fiddle around with....."
why mod?
For me the big disappointment with the Folio was that none of the Google stuff worked and I expected this from a device with Android.
Dexter has fixed this with his mods and now i can see all my picassa pics in the Gallery, my contacts calendar and email all sync perfectly. Try Google maps with the street view addin and zoom down streets, spin around, it is the sort of app that the tablet excells at.
He has also fixed the Market and there are plenty that are free and work great like tunein radio, some are worth paying for like Bria if you want a good sip client.
I have gone for the v2 mod as it seems to fly, It is not perfect but it is 1000% better.
Others have found v1 mod better for their use. Dexter has made it easy to try them and roll back and has proved to be adept at fixing issues with easy to apply updates , he can also be stimulated with his Donate button, Early reports are that the other tablets arriving with Froyo are hardly better than stock Folio all crippled at birth. Anyway I am grinning. I had a Nokia N800, ****e at first but then the second os release brought it to life and included a cpu overclock. Some have said we are not using both cores properly so I am looking forward to the next Android even if we have to stimulate Dexter to make it work again
but after foliomod I'll found the original apps ? or I have to re-install them again ? or I'll found others ones ?
and if toshiba will create a FW upgrade I'll have to roll-back to the original state to install it?
sorry for the stupid questions

Some will be there and some better ones have been included plus you have acess to the market where you should find everything you need , this is a bit trial and error but people will hopefully post reports of apps that work well on the folio. Yes you would have to go back to stock rom to get the Tosh update. Hah lets see if that comes:

Somehow I got stuck in the Foliomod V01...
When I'm in system recovery trying to upate to a later version I only get:
E:Can't mount DEFAULT_PATH
Finding update package

E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip
(No such file or directory)
Installation aborted.

When I choose: apply sdcard:update.zip
The same message pops up.
Anybody who has got an idea, how to fix this?

I would delete the update.zip and put a fresh one there, check on the pc that the zip opens and is not corrupt. Ian

Anybody know a way to use bluetooth for tethering, like it's possible with the archos tablets?
I've got 2 phones here wich are capable of making a dial up connection, but they are not as advanced as complete smart phones.
First is a LG GD510 POP and the second is a Samsung U600. Neither phone has a wlan connection, so it must be connected through bluetooth.
I can make a bluetooth connection with either of them and can send files and contact cards to them, but a tethering connection is not (yet) possible.
I know in the archos tablets, there is a possibility to tether, but in the folio (and mods) it's not.
Searching only delivers solutions, where the android device is the phone and a pc is the client or where a connection is made through wifi.

i dont there is any need to compare other hardware platforms..
the you could say Windows7 works fine with flash, but my android does not..
or my milestone works quite wll too, but still not same platform...
Best is put into accepting Toshiba/Nvidia is still work in progress, other major companies seems to plan using tegra2 and then we will for sure see much better support..
Toshiba released the folio100 too quick, comparing to Malata T2 which is still not out, as they realize its not in an acceptable state, although Nvidia is helping them to improve, they have yet to release their tablet and provide updates.
I have Tablet PC Q8 model gs701b. Firstly it worked properly but i decided to change rom. After i install new rom Front camera stopped to respond. Tablet didn't recognize it. (It thinks that front camera doesn't exist :X ) And the other problem is that rear camera doesn't work properly either. It shows show image such as in mirror :X I have tried to install on it many other roms Such as 1) TF-20121031-Q8-0329camera.zip (Doesn't work touchscreen) 2012092002_Q8_TF.zip (Doesn't work touchscreen). Q8-New-UPGRADE_FAST.zip- (Works) and Now I have OVO light Update 2 It works great but camera still doesn't work properly. :X please help me what to do ?
Sorry for my weak English.
Have you made sure that the camera is reported working in the ROM? As in the past camera's for some devices were a struggle to get working. At least to my knowledge.

Hi Dev's/fOmey,
firstly I'd like to say thank you to ALL developers/ROM chefs/Kernel makers for feeding my addiction.
I'd like to especially single out fOmey for building the Null_ ROM's,
I have used them on my S3 for some time now after trying a lot of other ROM's and as a VERY fussy user in his 30's ( I'm so old :'-( ) your ROM is the only one that so far and with a bit of tweaking has come sooooooooo close to ridding me of my ROM addiction/affliction by being soooo close to perfect for me.
The horrible irony is that I can't help myself when it comes to shiny new gadgets so less that a week after spending months (I **** you not) getting my S3 how I wanted it, those nasty men at Samsung dangle the S4 in front of me........bastards!
I can't resist, I have to have it, so I now am the proud (and slightly ashamed) owner of the I9505 (and an S3) and I can't carry them both around with me without revealing to everyone what a hopeless hardware loving nerd I actually am.
Now for the begging part, please please please PLEASE tell me that someone's going to work on a I9505 ROM that has the features included in Null_ ROM! :fingers-crossed:
You see ....... I'm not well. I need to have the following to allow me to be the ultimate nerd!
In no particular order this is what I need to work in order for my head not to explode
Ext2-4 SD card support
So I can symlink the folders I need to my SD which in turn I can encrypt and cloud sync.
IR remote control app
So I can use my phone to control the TV, HiFI, DVD and THE WORLD! (last one's optional)
Underclocking
So I can get the best battery life possible.
Virtual CD emulation
So I can use DriveDroid to boot my fully encrypted PC's using Trucrypt rescue disks instead of the unprotected standard bootloader.
Virtual Keboard/mouse emulation
So I can use my phone as a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse.
Lockscreen Torch via home button
Because I am scared of the dark!
Call Recording
So I can use Total Recall to automatically record my calls!
Sound Mod
Like the ACID Mod so I can effectively block out the world
Visual customisation
Like the JKay framework
Transparent Multiwindow
Because duh !?!!
Per app DPI
See above
Can I please have all of this like yesterday so I can make a real effort to never look at another article showing the latest and greatest phones.
If not is there a support group I can join for other afflicted souls like me :cyclops: !?!?!

Thank you for the idea Gordon.
I've had a quick look at this b4, unfortunately it requires a "server" program to be installed on the host machine.........that's the worst I can say about it though as it works rather well other than that.
Ideally I was looking for phone to be recognised as a keyboard and mouse over either a bluetooth connection or even a cable that would work OTG style.

Excuse me but "patient" ....... what is this strange yet potentially wonderful concept that you speak of?
any help would be greatly appreciated.
i have a rca cambio w116 v2 11.6 inch windows 10 2 in 1 tablet.
specs are as follows:
intel atom z3735f
32gb with 64gb sd
i cant get the touchscreen working in android x86 (ive tried android-x86 5.1-rc1 EFI image (64-bit OS) and remix os)
about to try 6.0
it works perfectly in windows, but when i boot into android, the touchscreen doesnt work at all.
the windows devices are:
HID-compliant touchscreen
kmdf hid minidriver for touch i2c device
the driver seems to be by silead
So..android boots fine, and is usable with the keyboard and mouse.
once again, any kind of direction on this would be great. ive read about similar issues, but no resolutions.
thanks
Rca cambio
Ive found the android drivers for my touch screen.
Mssl1680
Im just not sure what to do with them. There are three files with single letter extensions.
If anyone can succesfully help me with this, id happily pay.
$10-20 to whoever can help.
Also no luck getting Android to work with touchsreen
Bradgunn84 - I also have not had luck getting the touchscreen to work. I only had success getting android 4.4 kitkat to boot to the GUI. Android 5 & 6 hand at the Android banner. Did you have success getting either to boot correctly. I'll kick an additional $20 if anyone can help with getting it to work.
Rca cambio
I booted remix os, 4.4, and 5.xx, with rufus. All booted fine.
But no touchscreen on any. The mouse and keyboard work fine, if the keyboard is connected when you boot. If its disconnected, its really laggy when you reconnect it.
I have the driver files themselves for the touchscreen, and im slowly learning how to add them to, or compile a new kernal for x86.
But for now, its just a lot of reading. Still pretty lost.

ok, so i booted to the most recent version of 4.4 x86. it boots up fine, and is completely usable with mouse and keyboard.
after messing with the calibration app i found out the touch screen IS working, just not accurately at all.
It will register touches, just in the wrong place. i dont know how to calibrate it. none of the calibration apps on the play store work either.
Paulgall - As a live OS mine boots up and runs perfect(except touch screen of course). But it will register touches. just need to figure out how to calibrate it.
Once again. any help would be appreciated, happy to pay.
just need to get this thread a little more attention. 11.6 inch tablet for $160 with dual boot would be fantastic(whole reason i baught this, lol).
re: rca cambio touch screen
Oh and 5.0 and 5.1 roms, the touchscreen doesnt seem to work at all. haven't tried 6 yet. not holding out much hope though.
4.4 is the only rom ive had any kind of success with, which wasn't much.

Thanks Bradgunn84 - I'll continue to work with 4.4. and see if I can do anything with the touchscreen. 5 and 6 never get to the GUI, they just get hungup in the loading process. Did you have to change any BIOS settings? Are you running a SD card?
I had the same hopes for a dual boot. I had a RCA Viking and loved it, but didn't like that 5.0 didn't support apps on the SD card. They have it so locked down that it had no hopes of upgrading to 6.

Now the latest 4.4 won't boot. Maybe I messed up my Rufus settings. What settings do you use when creating the USB stick? Thanks It's probably obvious I'm a newbie to this whole thing.
Rufus settings
I used 4.4 r5 with rufus. I set it to .iso first, find the 4.4 file, then change the settings to dd mode. Hit start and it works fine. Im using a generic 4gb i had no use for. I didnt have to change anything in the bios. And i have a 64gb sd card(class 10) inserted.
I havent had any issues with any version booting up. They all work (for me).
Im going to work on it more today. Ill post any results.

Okay, thanks. Not sure what I did, but working now.
Touch screen orientation
After working with it some more, I think the touch screen is 90 degrees out of phase from the display. When the display is display in landscape, the touch screen seems to be limited to a narrow width and long height (portrait dimensions). Touchpad also has the same issue, up/down movement moves cursor left/right, and left/right moves cursor up/down. Are you experiencing this on your tablet?
No, my touchpad and keyboard work perfectly. Touchscreen is still way off. Ive tried two calibration apps, neither helped. I attemped to add product id to init.sh with no success. And attempted ts_calibrate from terminal, also no luck.

6.0 x86 wouldnt recognize touchscreen at all. Im about to sell this thing, lol. Not sure what to do.

Hmm, I suspect there are different versions of this tablet out there. The touchpad x-y is also backwards when I'm in the BIOS screens. Not happy.
Wondering if anyone knew how to solve this issue?
Any more work going on with this project. I'd love to get the cambio with the extra gig of memory and the win 10 lic for just $10 more than the similar android viking model. Then dual boot. What a deal that would be. If anyone got it working.
It looks like the current viking is coming with android 6. Is that build available to see if it will load up on the cambio.
OK I know this isnt on-topic with ANDROID developement, but i have NO drivers for my Cambio W116v2. Can anyone back up their windows 10 drivers with powershell? I know how to do it, i did it before, but somehow lost the zip i created in the shuffle o.o If you need the steps i will gladly sent them. mainly sound and touch is needed but since you will do a backup, might as well do the whole process so others can benifit. RCA had NO drivers uploaded to their support site o.o Thanks in advance...
Bios
How do you enter the bios settings on the cambio 2in1? I just got one and would like to change the os but need settings options.
Thanks
