Good Morning folks!!
I am new to this forum, but I am loving it already.
I just received a Micromax Funbook yesterday, ordered from Snapdeal and received in about 5 days. It was an impulse purchase, thanks in no small part to Tenida's rather excellent review of the same.
However, I am facing a problem. The device refuses to charge. When i keep it plugged in for hours at an end, either through USB or the AC charger, it does not discharge, but no charging either. I tried a hard reset, didnt solve the issue.
When I click on the battery tab in settings, I see the following :




The 1h32m44s time has remained unchanged since yesterday.
What should I do ?

Are you sure..?? Because that script only unlocks the Market, but market is installed from the very beginning.

Check app named Play Store.

Its okay , fixed it. I did a 'factory data reset' and Installed the script again. Got Google Play:-D .I think it crashed the first time script was installed.

and btw which ROM did you install??

Should I contact Micromax for a Warranty claim ? A quick google search reveals that its a problem for many ICS devices , but I did not really get a solution for the same.

Please don't buy from ncarry. I have worst after-sales service from them.

It will available at Micromax World after few days. I called today "they said 30 pcs already sold". New stock will come after 3 days.

Same advice from me also..Ncarry is worst...

Flashed my tab successfully (iview page video) as per suggestion. Surprised to see memory (RAM) which is showing appx 300 MB only and not 512. Also CPU clock is coming to 1 GB only. After resetting CPU clock using CpuMasterFree (Installed by eyeoncomputers_script_ver5b_ics4.0.3) to 1.2 GHz not able to install any apps from Google Play (Package error).

Any suggestion.


Also can anyone please suggest how to revert back to original ROM (taken backup using Clock Recovery MOD) and then remove root access.

Thanks

I am looking out the possible ways of getting wireless internet through USB dongle. Micromax gave only option to buy TATA photon plus and that too EC156 dongle, it don't look like a good option.
I have seen so many videos on Youtube telling you can connect any other 3G stick with FB, Can some one list out the possible dongles that are compatable with FB, so that i can buy. I already have TATA photon plus EC152 this is not getting detected:cry:

Lastly we connected the charger and voila it started.

This hardware is not intend to run ICS. Atleast 1GB RAM is needed.

Anyway, you can flash Custom ROM's to get rid of this laggyness. Though that would also be laggy but much less than this Stock ROM.

3 Drives..?? :O Can we have a screenshot of the drive contents of all the 3 drives..??

As per my knowledge it should show 2 drives, one is internal SD Card another is External SD Card.

Though Internal SD Card is divided into two parts, one for storage use and another for Internal ROM use.

You solved your problem by reflashing the firmware right..??

Are you the same guy who posted the same question in XDA..??
