Android Tablet Firmware

Posted on by

Android tablet uses Linux operating system. Google purchased this software in 2005. Android tablet Firmware is a combination of hardware and software that results in better functioning of the tablet. Firmware is basically the programs or data are recorded on computer chips. Firmware is widely used in iPhone, iPad, and in the latest release the ginger pad, as well as in honeycomb models.

Android tablet firmware includes the data on chips called as ROMs that is Read Only Memory, PROMs that is Programmable Read Only Memory, EPROMs that is Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory. Read Only Memory means that the bits stored in the chip that can for no reason be customized once out of factory and it stores the data even devoid of power. Programmable Read Only Memory is a digital type of memory where every bit setting is done by either fuse or by anti-fuse. PROMs used to store the programs everlastingly. The difference between ROM and PROM is that, in PROM the programming is applied after the device is constructed. Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory in Android tablet means that the memory can be erased by the ultraviolet light exposure and then again reprogrammed.

Now the android tablet firmware has EEPROM that is Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory that permits overwriting when the higher range of voltage is applied on it so it can be serviced for regular updates. Later the Flash Memory replaced EEPROM, which now permits overwriting easily without using high voltage. Now days the ROM in smart phones is flash Memory.

custom android tablet firmware in PROM or EPROM is intended to be updated if essential. For example AirPort firmware, Bluetooth firmware, Mac Book firmware, Mac Book Air firmware, Mac Book Pro firmware, iMac firmware, Mac mini firmware, displays firmware etc…

iPod has a firmware. The updates for iPod including software, firmware or both incorporated in the iPod Software Updater. Not every product contains firmware update. Many a times an update is installed at the factory. Don’t ever worry if sometimes one is not able to see an update for the product which one is searching for firmware version. Sometimes it may ask that which version of firmware aka boot ROM one is having in the tablet. Below is given the way to find out how to decide the firmware version for one’s tablet.

Firstly open Tablet firmware; Open firmware is the common name of the firmware complying with IEEE Standard # Among all open firmware’s many features, it provides a tablet sovereign device interface for generally AGP or PCI cards. This regularly enables card expansion manufacturers to support easily with various diverse tablet designs devoid of supplying dissimilar firmware for everyone.

How to Use BlackBerry Bold, Torch or Curve ...

Posted on by

TechPinas Exclusive!BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 software update brings a lot of cool new features to BBPB including Messages, Contacts, and Calendar native applications — but giving the users the ability to use their BB Smartphone as remote control for the tablet has got to be the coolest.As some of you already know, I got myself a BlackBerry PlayBook last year for three reasons; one, I love how it looks – it’s simple yet elegant and it matches the classic design of my ThinkPad; two, it’s probably the best tablet out there when it comes to multitasking; And three, its default web-browser, which supports flash and renders pages quickly, is simply king.Let me tell you, my BBPB was already great even prior to OS 2.0 but it became ‘super’ after I installed the firmware upgrade. like what I said, using my BlackBerry smartphone as remote control for the tablet is the new feature I like the most. I find this particularly useful when I’m doing PowerPoint presentations for clients. What I do is that I connect my PlayBook to a larger display via HDMI cable, run the PPT file, stand beside the big screen, talk and use my phone to flip through the boards without having to go back and forth the table to touch my tablet. It’s really neat.If you also own a BlackBerry PlayBook and a BB Smartphone – a new generation Curve with touchscreen (BlackBerry Curve 9380) or Bold (BlackBerry Bold 9900 or 9790) or a BlackBerry Torch, you might want to watch my short tutorial video on how you can use your handset as remote control for your tablet. I mean, you’ll never know when you might need to use it. Check it out:Easy, eh?!So again, here’s how you do it:1. Download and install the latest version of BlackBerry Bridge app on your BB smartphone. get the app from BlackBerry App world; It’s free.2. Connect your BlackBerry Smartphone to your BlackBerry PlayBook using BlackBerry Bridge.3. once they’re connected, go to your smartphone’s BB Bridge app settings and click on “Use Remote Control” button.4. Familiarize yourself one-finger, two-finger and ‘frame’ touch gestures on your remote control. Use one finger to choose items; two fingers to scroll up and down the screen; Swipe up from below the frame to go back to home screen; Swipe down from the top of the frame to go to PlayBook settings and swipe from sides to jump from one open application to another.5. enjoy your powerhouse BlackBerry pair and practice your presentations!

iPad 3 V/S iPad 2, Apple iPad 2 v/s Apple iPad 3, ...

Posted on by

iPad 2 VS iPad 3: a mystery comparison between the known and the unknown.

Apple has finally announced the release date for the next generation iPad on 7th March. They haven’t actually said what exactly they will be unveiling at the event, all they have said is: “We have something you really have to see. and touch”.

Even if they haven’t said what exactly they will release but it his highly speculated that it will be the announcement of the iPad 3 and firmware for iOS 5: iOS 5.1. The evident rumors of next generation iPad that were surfacing till now made us compete it with the iPad 2. Lets see how superior will be the new iPad than the already released iPad.

Display: The new iPad is highly predicted that it will have Retina display with 2048 x 1536 pixel resolution. whereas the iPad 2 have 768 x 1024 pixel resolution and is sans Retina display. Apple’s Retina display and the 2048 x 1536 pixel resolution is surely going to make a vast difference, even in comparison with tablets from other companies.

Camera: The iPad 2 had fairly reasonable 0.7 MP camera for a tablet and front VGA for video calling. But seeing the competition out there the Cupertino Company will have to give a better camera than the previous one and 5MP camera is not enough. an 8MP camera will surely make the difference and yes with LED flash please.

Hardware: The A5 chipset was fast but that that is not enough for the latest tablet, not when the new slates are coming with quad core processors. The recent leaked images of the new Apple chipset had surfaced showing that it will be called as A5X and will be quad-core one! this chip will make a major difference in the new iPad than its predecessor in terms of performance.

Data:  The iPad 2 first came with only Wi-Fi version but later Apple released the upgraded version of iPad 2 with 3G and now that it has 3G the new iPad will have 4G LTE capabilities. with LTE capabilities the iPad 3 will be way faster in comparison to iPad 2’s 3G data speed. The battery will also be bigger, so Apple can’t give the excuse of battery issues that LTE sucks, like they did with the iPhone 4S.

Memory: 64GB was enough and not so enough for users but can we predict a 128GB space in the iPad 3? Of course yes! After all the iPad 3 will be better in every other aspect then why not in memory too. Even the 512 MB RAM was okay but keeping parallel to the new processor the new iPad should have 1GB RAM too for that excellent seamless gaming and HD video experience.

Battery: The Standard Li-Po 6930 mAh battery was good for the iPad 2. But now as we discussed above the new iPad will have 4G LTE capabilities, the new iPad should have upgraded battery that would take the LTE’s power consumption.

Body: Apple was never fond of making the slimmest phone or tablet in the world; instead they always focus on hardware, features and seamless interface. The iPad 3 is expected to be bigger than the previous iPad because of the battery. But nothing really can be thought about its dimensions and weight. seeing the difference between the original iPad and iPad 2, there was a difference between the slimness. So, maybe the next generation iPad will be slimmer or may be not! Who knows?

Voice service: The iPad 2 had just Voice Control and the new iPad will have Voice Control as well as the intelligent voice assistant called Siri, which is till now only in iPhone 4S. Going through all the speculated configuration of the new iPad and the iPad 2, there is comparatively vast difference. Apple will be announcing the iPad 3 on 7th March at San Francisco’s Yerba Buena Center. Keep a tab on this section to know more about the iPad 3 details and the live event happenings on the D-day.

Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF101 Android 4.0 Ice ...

Posted on by

As promised, the most-awaited Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich update for the Asus Transformer Prime has already gone live. But what about those who bought the original Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF101 tablet? will they need to wait for a couple of months more before they can finally be able to upgrade their slates? We do have an answer to that.

At times like these, it pays to post your query on the company’s official Facebook fan page. who knows? You might get a response from a certain Asus representative. And speaking of which, it was from the fan page of Asus North America that we have learned about the forthcoming Android 4.0 ICS update for the Eee Pad Transformer TF101. In a brief response to a query, Asus did mention that the new firmware for the original Transformer tablet will be out by mid-February. as much as we would like to know more about the said update, the pithy reply failed to mention the specific date. The new firmware will most likely enhance the tablet’s speed along with a new user interface.

Officially released last April 2011, the Asus Eee Pad Transformer TF101 tablet can take pride of its 10.1 inch LED backlit IPS LCD Display with a maximum screen resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels. But that’s not all. The slate can also take pride of its 5 mega pixel rear camera with auto focus and geo-tagging, 1.2 mega pixel front facing camera, 1GHz NVIDIA Tegra 2 Dual Core Cortex A9 Chipset, ULP GeForce Graphics, Android 3.0 Honeycomb operating system with ASUS WaveShare UI, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR, USB 2.0, HTML Browser with Adobe Flash, 16GB to 32GB of built-in storage, up to 32GB of expandable storage via micro SD card and 1GB of RAM.

Do let us know once you get your Transformer TF101 slate running on Android 4.0.

ASUS Transformer Prime GPS update coming now

Posted on by

Tonight we will finally see a fix to the GPS issues ASUS Transformer Prime owners had been facing since day 1. ASUS had claimed their last update to the device would improve GPS, but in actuality this update perfects it. But what if you don’t feel like waiting for the update to push to your device?

DroidHam from XDA Developers has a solution. He went through the following steps to get his device to force the update tonight. First, you’ll need to navigate to www.ASUS.com. then head over to Support > Downloads > and type in “Transformer Prime”. The file is named “Eee Pad Transformer Prime TF201 Firmware: V9.4.2.7 only for US SKU (Android 4.0.3)”. Download the 300MB file, extract the file, and then place it on the root of your SD card.

Story Timeline

He then turned his device on and went to system > about Tablet > and checked for a new update. The update actually reinstalls ICS – but afterwards the OTA update instantly appeared on his Transformer Prime. if you have any other questions, or simply want to report that this didn’t work for you – let us know.

ARCHOS 7 Home Tablet (is a piece of sh*t) « ...

Posted on by

I might be something of a old-school guy, but I would much rather read a real book than something electronic. I finally wore out and decided to get a tablet to be able to read books on the plane and in the hotel while I travel, which I now do quite a bit. I was getting tired of lugging around 700+ page books, so I bought the ARCHOS 7 Home tablet (I won’t tell you where I got it, because I actually like them).

My immediate thoughts & recommendations: the ARCHOS 7 Home Tablet is an absolute piece of SHIT (my site, so I can say it).

The firmware needs upgrading as soon as you get it, but you won’t find that out until you actually hound their “support” department via e-mail (I must note that Tony, my support rep, was fantastic at helping with a PIECE OF SHIT that was built in China and came with instructions that might as well been in Cantonese for all the use they did – DO I really need to know not to plug the my finger into a 220V Outlet?). Tony was incredibly helpful, but even with his help the ARCHOS 7 won’t do a damn thing after that; seriously, if you’re going to have something built in another country (China), and sell it in a country that at least expects a functioning product (other than county of origin) then at least shouldn’t you have the damn decency do make the thing work? How’s the product testing working over there? my 7 year old daughter figured out that this thing was a POS almost as soon as I got it out of the box.

After upgrading the “firmware”, which frankly a good dose of Viagra wouldn’t fix, it still doesn’t work. But you need to upgrade the limpware to get the pre-installed Android “AppLib” to work (don’t forget that you need to uninstall it, somehow find it, and then reinstall it, and even then if you do find anything it won’t work, so it’s, shall I say, useless?). I can understand not being able to find my favorite non-physical game (cribbage), but the complete lack of searchability is frustrating. if the word “searchability” bothers anyone, then try it on the ARCHOS 7 and you’ll see what I mean.

Oh, and the ARCHOS “Android Marketplace”? the offerings through Archos are useless as well, and if you try to get creative and find something you like you’ll find that unless you’re lucky it won’t load at all. I suppose the Czechoklooifadkian newsreader might be interesting to me if I start taking some classes, but really?

As for the Alkido Reader, that was wonderful, as it actually came with two very good books. I love Sun Tzu’s “Art of War” and that is probably the only redeeming factor behind this ARCHAWFUL thing. except that it can’t find anything else. if I hook the thing up to my PC I can drop my e-books on it (but only on the SD card I had to buy), see them on my PC, but the ARCHOS doesn’t seem to see them. when I told my wife that my tablet said it’s memory was “unmounted” she wanted to know what I’d been up to…really. All I wanted to do was read a book on a plane, not have my daughter download Super Mario for $0.99 (which I am happy to tell you doesn’t work…) And so the ARCHOS 7 POS is now hers and I will not be taking it on my next trip.

If this thing was defective I might not have a problem with it, but IT’S NOT. It’s just a POS. Pay the extra bucks for something that actually works. I’ve wasted more time on trying to get this thing to work than it’s been worth. the only good thing on it is the Skeet game, becase that’s what’s going to happen to it next, and that will be the most enjoyment I’ve gotten out of it so far. For the frustration involved in this thing I’ve had been better off getting an iPad. Pricey or not, at least they work. All for a business trip so I didn’t have to lug around a few 700 page books, and I still end up lugging the books. so much for that, I’ll pay the $25 bucks to check my bags again…At least I get reimbursed for that expense. Do you think the IRS will care that I shot my “office supplies”?

For what it’s worth, Tony @ ARCHOS (albeit via e-mail and on only on Albanian time) was fantastic, and a great representative for his company. the ARCHOS 7 Home Tablet, on the other hand is about as useful as the UN.
