@dbdave,

Here's a link to the compatibility file...

Have to say that the latest rom is noticeably quicker and really good that I can watch I player with streaming in HD. Really starting to get the best out of the tablet. Still has the odd flaw but the latest rom really is a big jump up from stock.

Just wait until the new cm9 sources come out with Linaro, apparently should increase performance by 100%...

[nick]

The performance of CM9 20120610 is pretty good...
Here are the figures I'm getting from Quadrant with stable CPU @ 1104 MHz

Total: 2163
CPU: 1578
Mem: 1739
I/O: 5456
2D: 271
3D: 1769

CPU goes a bit wobbly @ 1152 MHz and locks up @ 1200 MHz

Hi guys, downloaded the 7th June nightly. HAven't done the latest yet (should I?). When using the update me app, I download the files, but when I go in to CWM I can't find the zips.

The adblocker one worked fine as it was just a reboot (tip:get it!)

What is the obviously very silly thing I am missing?

updateme saves to internal 8gb flash, you need to select the bottom option in flashing menu,flash zip from internal sd, not the flash zip from sd (this option in cwm is for files on an external microSD card)

I figured it did as I can see it when I use a file explorer but CWM doesn't see it, just says no zip found. I'll move it to external SD and try that way.

Might as well update to the latest version as well whilst I am at it!

Seems fine on first impressions. Gonna start installing apps!

But one thing that is annoying me, I like that doors game. Level 2 is that I have to tilt the tablet to move the ball. Doesn't work, is that an app issue? Screen rotates no problem on home screen etc, just not on this game...grrrr

try this rom

its a modded cm9 rom by christian with the g-sensor compatibility settings option back in the display settings (I & a few others kept hassling christian for this as its a default setting in the scroll extreme stock rom) - he kindly obliged
you can switch between standard & special g-sensor option,before booting the game/app - works well for me on games that wouldnt work with the latest standard cm9 rom

EDIT - tried it ,it works fine with dooors game with special compatibility option ticked - Im now addicted & completely stuck on level 8 :-/

after flashing this you also have to flash the compatibility zip again as you should/would have done before & you will need to reinstall the gapps zip too obviously
