3G
Complete support with USB OTG for Hauwei 3G key models E1550 E1692 E1750 E1820

NTFS Support
I made the necessary changes in order to see external drives formatted with NTFS file system.
Mount NTFS disk – what to do:
Automatically at boot time the system will create a folder called win inside the mount point /mnt
Run GScript and add a new script, call it – mount-ntfs -
Enter the following command: /system/bin/ntfs-3g /dev/block/sda1 /mnt/win
Save
Connect via usb otg the disk, start the script and entire contents of the disk will appear in /mnt/win
I did a test with a 1TB drive with my mkv and I was able to see to 1080p without any problems.
To umount the disk, create a new script, call it umount-ntfs and enter the following command:
/system/xbin/umount /mnt/win
Save

WARNING:
During umount, all applications that are taking up the mount point /mnt/win SHOULD BE CLOSED.
If you do not, the script does not umount the disk and if the disconnected abruptly, you may lose data.

Bluetooth
Entered all necessary kernel modules to support external USB Bluetooth to connect to the USB OTG cable.
Obviously the Android drivers are a bit limited, look on the various forums to see what sticks are compatible.
Of course, Bluetooth file transfer has been included to turn off and turn on and manage the Bluetooth

CIFS support
Added kernel modules in order to see share external network via the CIFS protocol
Full support for OpenVPN
Added kernel module tun.ko to use encrypted connections with OpenVPN server.
Further changes:
Inside /system/xbin directory has been added to the latest version of busybox
The openvpn binary was always placed within this directory.
All kernel modules are loaded at boot time

Bugs

Bluetooth

When the Bluetooth is on and the display goes to time out, the internal POWER signal is sent to tablet

Awesome Fenice! I want that stuff on my 10 G2 but you are the master when it comes to adding drivers and editing the system. Far better than I.

If you get a chance to do one for the other G2 tabs let me know and I will test for you!

Welcome Fenise!

Thank you for having your rom on here, great work

[Finless]

Fenice, EXT4 is cool and all but take a look at yaffs! It is made for NAND memory and is a better file system than EXT4 for tablets with NAND memory. I will be working on that soon

From V2 to V3 you must EraseIDB
You can't go from v2 to 3.1 update.

From V3 to 3.1 update you don't erase IDB

@Fenice57, Would it possible to use this on the 10G2 (and other models), if it is how can I extract the needed files and install them on the G2, or could you do a pack of some sort.
