Dexter_nlb, Senior Android hacker and developer from XDA forums, has cooked the first ever Honeycomb ROM for Folio 100 by combining works of developers performing similar stuff on Notion Ink Adam and Advent Vega.
Like every other initial Honeycomb port, this port is also bloated with bugs and requires some fixes immediately. Of course it all depends on how massively development takes place, but still users can have some initial honey oozing on their tabs. There is a really small list of what works so let’s focus on what doesn’t:
- Power Button Stops Responding
- Most of The Market Apps fail To Install
- Sleep Mode Bug
- Some Sensors Don’t Work
- Keyboard and Dock Glitch
If you understand the risks involved in flashing this custom and semi working Honeycomb build on Toshiba Folio 100, then here is the guide for you:
What You Need ?
- A rooted Toshiba Folio 100 with custom Recovery installed. You can root your Toshiba Folio 100 with SuperOneClick rooting application and then install unofficial ClockWorkMod Recovery available here.
- Folio 3X Jason Voorhes edition Custom Android Honeycomb ROM
- The initial step is to make sure that you have proper root on your tablet along with ClockworkMod Recovery Installed.
- Now download Folio 3X Honeycomb Custom ROM provided in What You Need section above.
- Once you are done with downloading the ROM file, download and install ROM Manager on your phone. Please only use ClockworkMod Recovery as we will be using ROM Manager to boot in CWM later.
- Now connect your Folio 100 to the computer, mount SD Card as USB disk drive and copy the downloaded ROM zip file to SD Card root.
- After you have downloaded and installed ROM Manager, launch the app from homescreen and tap on Reboot Into Recovery.
- Once you are in Recovery mode, navigate down to Wipe Data and select Wipe Data / Factory Reset Option.
- Now once your tab is factory reset, go to Recovery main menu and select Install Zip From SD Card.
- In the resulting menu, select Folio3x.zip and press OK to install.
- Now sit back and relax while the installation takes place.
- Once the procedure is over, reboot your device.
