Root Working (Mostly) Jelly bean on the Alpha 2

I was playing around and I did a Livesuit image with a working CWM Recovery. Then I flashed the A10 Jellybean. I had to reboot into CWM and wipe everything then it booted and setup. I got a corrupt Sd message. I played around a little and got the vold.fstab swapped to use my 32GB instead.

I did some searching and found a compatibility zip that was supposed to fix it on another tablet, but I think it just did the same thing. So far now it works except G-sensor, capacitive buttons, and rotation. I had capacitive buttons working with the to2a compatibility but it illed the touch screen. I am going to swap some files around and see what happens
As soon as I am sure it is stable I will post links.

I love to see you still working on this tablet. I remember when you were developing on the STZ way back when. Keep up the work. I would love to see you on a mainstream device someday.


Thanks, I have been working with the Excite 10 but that is still in limbo root wise. I like working on the smaller brands as they don't get the support of the big brands.

Any chance you could post up that working CWM for us? Id love to get ahold of that. I hate themeing with .img files.... maybe a term emu install?
