Bluetooth GPS on G Tab - Skymap and Nav working! How To: Unleash The Power Of The Viewsonic G Tablet And Turn It Into The Best Performing Tablet On The Market. Like so many of you out there, I have been holding out for an Android tablet that would be well worth my saved pennies, one that I could be proud to stack up against the uppity iPad owners that loiter around the local Starbucks.

I'll be the first to admit that this year has been disappointing to say the least – cancelled devices, resistive touch screens, underpowered hardware, and carrier only options have plagued the community thus far, and even while optimistic for 2011, it was clear that I needed a tablet now. Let me save you the trouble of scouring the internet in search of a tablet. If you're like me and do not want to have to buy a carrier subsidized tablet with yet another data plan (I'm talking about you, Samsung), then your three top options are the Archos 101, the Advent Vega, and the Viewsonic G Tablet.

It is a client-server program that includes three components: A client, which runs on your development machine. You can invoke a client from a shell by issuing an adb command. Other Android tools such as the ADT plugin and DDMS also create adb clients. A server, which runs as a background process on your development machine. You can find the adb tool in <sdk>/platform-tools/.

When you start an adb client, the client first checks whether there is an adb server process already running. The server then sets up connections to all running emulator/device instances. Emulator 1, console: 5554 Emulator 1, adb: 5555 Emulator 2, console: 5556 Emulator 2, adb: 5557 and so on... As shown, the emulator instance connected to adb on port 5555 is the same as the instance whose console listens on port 5554. Enabling adb Debugging Syntax Commands Table 1.

View topic - Partition Table on Main Memory (System area) SOLVED: messed up partitions on internal storage. Here's the solution.

The problem was that I managed to screw up the partitions on my internal storage card, so basically nothing would work properly. I could still get into recovery, though. That's key. Here's what you'll need: Working recovery, basic knowledge of adb & the shellParted (download here)stock PB31IMG.zip Note also that I had run unrevoked forever (so my phone was S-OFF) ... So, grab parted from the link above. Now, we need to fix the partitions. Once all that's done, your recovery program should be able to mount both the /data and /cache partitions. Again, huge credit for this goes to -Steveo- and ciwrl for helping me figure out which partitions were the right ones (and for supplying parted, which I hadn't been able to find anywhere). ViewSonic g-Tablet: Partitioning the SDCARD. After recently modding the ViewSonic g-Tablet with TnT Lite ROM, I started getting the "Force Close" Error Message stating: "The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly.

Please try again. ". THE SOLUTION: Clear "Cache" and "Storage" of your Contacts either through settings or using Titanium Backup. I have read while searching for a solution to this problem that other applications also cause this Error Message. However, for the ViewSonic g-Tablet, I discovered that not setting the partition for the SDCARD (which is the 16GB Internal Memory) can also cause this issue over time. The following link explains step by step how to properly partition the SDCARD: CAUTION: I used 4GB/0MB option but IT WILL cause problems when trying to install apps through the market.
