last updated July 11th 2011
I have made available here on my website a mirror for a significant number of Roms to install on the Adam, including the Stock images and updates. I just decided it might make sense to post their links on my website, since I am mirroring them here. clicking on the name of the mod will take you to the forum on tabletroms.com where the developer is posting updates and answering questions. Please click the links for installation instructions, support, and to check for newer versions, I cannot guarantee I have the newest updates, but I will try. I have not virus scanned any of these, I have not unpacked/repacked any of these, the only files I even renamed were ones with the default name “update.zip” as you cannot have 20 files called update.zip and expect your hair not to fall out! The only promise I can give is that I won’t take these files down unless the developers ask me to do so! Any changes I might make for my own use will never be posted on this page, I will make a separate post if I decide to ever do that, to avoid confusion.
Again, this is just a mirror location, not the official or original site for any of these Roms. Nor am I affiliated with any of the developers, besides being a poster on some of the same forums. Just trying to help preserve the history of these Roms, and provide an additional location to gain access to them.
First off I want to post this link to TabletRoms.com and their page for working on Honeycomb on the Notion Ink Adam. If anyone reading this has any Kernel development experience, they need just a bit of help and the Rom will be completely working for everyone! So go here to help out if you can.

note on this one, I just put my device in airplane mode. changed it from losing 36% in 8 hours of standby to losing 24% in 8 hours on standby (both EdenX 2.4 and Beast Rom 2.2 and 2.2.1), so use it if you want to, some people have reported side effects.

just a note, this is designed to work with specific Kernels, if it does nothing of FC’s on you, go to the XDA linked page and read the posts! This requires specific things built in to the Kernel to function.

Notion Ink Adam Stock Roms and Updates
These are the NI Roms that I have gotten from the NIH website (mostly the unbricking website, except the one that was linked to XDA, I think, or maybe that was the Adam Stock Apps… I get confused, a lot…). I have posted them for safe keeping in case other sources disappear, and to make they are available when/if I need them. For the Honeycomb Roms, I have started numbering them 1.0, 1.1… this is not any official numbering and I think I missed one, we will call that one 0.90 if I ever find it/decide to put it up here.

note, I renamed these files, because NI called all of them “update.zip” to install without clockwork mod (which I thin kmost have stopped using) you will need to rename the file to update.zip before you flash it.

I do what I do for myself and no one else, but also have no problems sharing, so use me if you wish, or ignore me, it is your choice.
First off, let me say it is not pretty, second the instructions on the Abode website are better suited for trying to get a man on Mars than getting Air to work in Linux x64, and they are specific for Fedora 9 and 10 x64… There are also instructions for installing Adobe Air 2 on Fedora 11, but 2 is not an available install from the drop down menu on the install page. One last important point, then we shall get started… once again Adobe has ONLY MADE A 32bit APPLICATION VERSION, which is why there is an issue in the first place, the second issue is that once again the great big $$$ hungry corporation has no clue how to design an installation for Linux. I hope someone from Adobe reads this one days and learns that *nux packages can have DEPENDENCIES listed in the package and the system will attempt to download and install them during installation if they are missing from the local system. This is one of the top reasons why I switched to *nix after being a Microsoft Partner.
Ok, so the first thing in getting an install that does not want to work is to find instructions from someone who has gotten it to work. I value my time greatly, and do not believe in re-inventing the wheel (when not necessary).
next problem, Adobe Air requires the Gnome-keyring (boo…. bad, hisss…. yuk yuk yuk) or the KWallet (I don’t think they still make this app, it is now “The KDE Wallet” (filename is KDEWallet instead of KWallet) and can be found by going to System Settings –> Advanced –> KDE Wallet. I went in and setup a default profile, very easy to do, just hunt around as there are only about 7 things to do in the control panel and if you have not done this already you will find a drop down field that is blank. now I am getting an issue when attempting to install, or I would not have taken time to write this (unfortunately I had the issue yesterday and did my research for getting around it, then started up again today and as the first set of instructions did not work I am consequently writing this post. so the bad news is I may not get the same error right now when I try again so I can copy it to this post… yeah… it is working right now… sorry about that, but the main part of the error was “Gnome-keyring or KWallet is necessary to install Adobe Air” Thankfully (for all) this means a shorter post. I did a bunch of things and not all of them worked. Here are the 5 steps I followed so you can copy and paste, start out in a terminal window in the directory that you have downloaded the Adobe Air installer to (most likely ~/Downloads).
Step #2 is from the Adobe website (combined from several steps into one command, obviously the guys techs at Adobe are not Linux people), I had lots of error messages here (not found, already installed, conflicts with installed version, copies files already installed from installed package <name-o-package> and maybe one or two more). I would bet a couple of $$$ that you can skip this line, but as I have already done it, I don’t know. (the short version: you should be able just skip step 2) The remaining instructions came from the website that is referenced from the first link in this post
- cd ~/Downloads
- sudo yum install lib32asound2 lib32gcc1 lib32ncurses5 lib32stdc++6 lib32z1 libc6 libc6-i386 libnss3.so.1d libnssutil3.so.1d libsmime3.so.1d libssl3.so.1d libnspr4.so.0d libplc4.so.0d libplds4.so.0d ld-linux.so.2 gtk2-devel.i386 libxml2.i386 nss.i386 libXt.so.6 gnome-keyring.i386 xterm rpm-libs.i386
- touch ~/.airinstall.log ~/.airappinstall.log
- sudo chmod +x AdobeAIRInstaller.bin
- sudo yum install -y gtk2-devel.i686 nss.i686 nss-softokn.i686 libxml2-devel.i686 libxslt.i686 gnome-keyring.i686 rpm-devel.i686 alsa-plugins-pulseaudio.i686 PackageKit-gtk-module.i686 libXt.i686 gtk2-engines.i686 libcanberra-gtk2.i686 xterm
- sudo ./AdobeAIRInstaller.bin
That did it for me, I clicked “install” “accept” “done” and that was a wrap. now to test it…
oops… the directions on that blog post go on to say “On Fedora 12, you would not be able to install or run any AIR application. This is probably due to SELinux security policy with the certificate in Adobe AIR.”
The good news… there is a solution, the bad news, as displayed in the blog post it will not work due to a syntax error (tried in BASH, SH, KSH, and TCSH all gave the syntax error except TCSH which gave an illegal variable error) lucky us the blogger posted the reference link for the solution and I went to check it out. No help there it is letter for letter correct. I am lucky I do have a small brain that can occasionally come up with solutions to technical based problems. here is what I did and, yes it did work.
- cd ~/Downloads (you can skip this if you are still there from my previous instructions above)
- touch crypt
- sudo chmod +x crypt
- echo ‘for c in /etc/opt/Adobe/certificates/crypt/*.0; do aucm -n $(basename $c) -t true; done’ >crypt
- sudo ./crypt
piece of cake! something I learned from an AIX training class I had last year, if it doesn’t work from a command line, then darn it, put it in a shell script file!!!
There are also instructions on that original blog post for installing and uninstalling Adobe Air Apps, the install part is pretty straight forward, go to the website that has the app, click install. the uninstall instructions have a couple of steps. when I get around to uninstalling something I’ll add them to this post (probably in the next 2 hours!!)
