Micromax Funbook

[Tenida]

^^Got it exactly one week after booking..

Congrats dude...so howz the experience so far?

Havnt used much since then, will post about the battery improvements, if any.

Here is the tutorial : IVIEW 760TPC Advanced Improvements - Flashing Firmware, Custom Scripts & more - YouTube

Downloads available here : Free Cloud Storage - MediaFire


For the screenshots, tell me if there's any app, coz i dont have a point and shoot cam.

About screenshot app. just type in google play you will find many such free app.
And post your feedback about battery life, browsing experience, video playback.Also tell us is there any bugs in the custom rom??

There is no major difference in terms of playback and such things, will update about the battery life, which again depends on the usage.

For the screenshots, i'll rather ask you to watch the tutorial video, it is all of the same here.

Thanks Tenida! It was this thread which had made me aware about Funbook about a week back and today I'm a proud owner of Micromax Funbook. It's my first android device and have been getting a feel of it for last few hours.

I had ordered it on 28th April and received it today afternoon. Fabulous service by SnapDeal.

Thanks again.

Cheers,
Anand

Done!

Phew! It was my first time tweaking with android! Feels good! Will now come to the changes i am experiencing :

Pros :

1. The Micromax branding is out of the way from the boot screen to mlabs!
2. Internal space available is 2.16GB out of the 2.17GB!! WOW!!
3. The device is now recognized in the Play Store as an SG SII or if you want, the ALLWINNER MOD lets you change it.
4. The device is snappier and smooth, with lots of essential apps pre-installed as well!
5. A few more Gapps installed like People, Currents etc.

Benchmarking scores :

AnTuTu : 2983 (tenida got 2947 in his review)
Neocore : 57.3 FPS (same as tenida)
Quadrant : 1776 (1679 was the score in iGyaan review)


Temporarily have reverted back to the original firmware, since the unlocked dongle was not working because, everytime i tapped on Mobile Network, got an error saying, Mobile Network has stopped working!

Will see and wait for the fix!

PS : For those interested to flash, check this

Bro don't use the script.

So far good.....my first android...Felt the resolution is a bit low.But i can live with that..Now i need to get a good carry case for the tab..

 

[varunparakh]

Bro don't use the script.

Script is a necessity to install GApps and unlock the Play store, anyways, it is all fixed now!
Had to choose, No, in an option in the script!

hey guys..need your advice on this carry case..*www.ebay.in/itm/High-Quality-Black...4?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_203&hash=item27c64d1d10..is this good?..

 

[Charley]

did anyone tested skype. Micromax is not able to send video properly (pink lines are coming at receiver end). However at Micromax end, video is ok.

I read on a Letsbuy review, Skype video calling isn't supported.

Same here

It will fit this case specially made for 7 inch tablet.

 

[batman]

@tenida..carry cases from letsbuy looks gud..but lemme check in the local markets too before buying one as i feel 895 is a bit overpriced..

 

[Tenida]

I found this. Pretty good looking

I read on a Letsbuy review, Skype video calling isn't supported.

I noticed somewhere that Skype is not ready for ICS yet
