Interested in this ROM version and details about it, whats included and if the Missing Flash APK has been fixed in the system/app folder

I had Smile that bug in the version 1.05 that I have, but only had to rename the file, and another Rom maker in another forum mentions it in his version as being fixed.

Thanks

I don't think the firmware changelog from the manufacturer mentions that Flash issue. My rooted version is 100% stock appart root & SuperSu added, changed language to English and the Chinese & unnecessary apps removed.

You can download latest Flash version from Google Play Store.

Not anymore.

1mobile.com should have it though.

Actually it does work, even if I read everywhere Adobe has removed it from Google Play Store.

I've just tested again, going to https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.adobe.flashplayer&hl=en

Sending the app to the tablet from the web worked fine, I confirm Adobe Flash is installed and running.

Still, I'll include it in next custom firmware release.

Cheers.

I haven't reflashed my rooted firmware to check, but I confirm Flashplayer apk is in the firmware image, so it should be installed by default.

Flash cant be installed from the market.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.adobe.flashplayer&hl=en

This app is incompatible with all of your devices.

Rockchip U30GT-H

This item is not compatible with your device.

Alsop I know why flash aint working built in.

Its missing the .apk extension and the system thinks its a unknown filetype.

I have just rebuilt my 1.07 custom firmware and have removed /system/app/flashplayer file (actually an APK) to latest Adobe Flash 11.1, the new file is install as a system application as well. (com.adobe.flashplayer-11_1_115_17.apk)

Here is the custom firmware with proper Flash update : kasty-cube_u30gt_h-41-107-rooted_b.zip

I can't test it as my Cube U30GTH is dead, so please report here if it works fine.

Thank you.

Well it does not boot and does not seem to charge anymore.

I suspect a faulty charger, it made bad noises since the beginning and I'm pretty sure it caused a short circuit in the tablet charge connector. So my Cube U30GT-H isn't usable at the moment and until I manage to get fixed, that won't be easy to test my own firmwares Confused

One question, I've searched and can't find the original Asus weather widget that comes with the stock firmware; probably it is attached to the chinese bloatware. Is there a way to reinstall or extract it from the original? or Can you mod your firmware to include it in future releases? Any help will be much appreciated.

You'll find Asus weather widget as other removed apps in the package I made in this post:

http://www.arctablet.com/blog/forum/cube-u30gt/cube-u30gt-h-firmware-update-1-07-2012-09-25-just-released/page-2/#p13148

Just copy "ASUS Weather 1.0.apk" from the archive to /system/app directory, reboot your tablet and you should have the widget available.

(to copy to /system/app you'll need a file manager able to access the root of the device to do that, you can find many from Google Play Store)

Cheers.

Hi I can confirm your new rooted firmware 1:10 works just fine on u30gt-h, following the thread I have been having trouble with chrome (surprise, surprise) would not play flash, after numerous re-installs and with no assistance from google. in the end I gave up and installed Firefox which plays flash fine, dont know if you had any plans to produce a rom with it in place, hint hint. as a result of this I find that the latest version of flash player is available from:- http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/archived-flash-player-versions.html many thanks for all your good work!!!!

hi,

I installed firmware 1.09 or 1.10 and still no video in flash player...

I installed Root Browser Lite, however flash player is installed in system/app

I uninstalled flash player with Root Browser, then paste a new flash player in system/app and install....but still nothing.

I use the browser Chinese tablet.
The plug-in is enabled but nothing.
