[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lutfialts:
this customs are amazing..i tested n still use it..but would u fix the boot area?,always wait in the black screen first arround 10 second then go to boot animation("OXYGEN")..overall,thx 4 this...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
Do you also get a split screen for a couple of seconds after the black screen?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lutfialts:
No..just like original oxygen rom..go to boot animation, but its more faster .. about 3-4 second in animation then see the home screen..
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
Ah and how many seconds did it take in animation on Oxygen?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lutfialts:
10-15 sec for another times..its clean n stable rom after all..
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] arveparve:
I was wondering if the same problem with sensor delay in the original oxygen is in this as well?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JaymzBond:
i both get a blank screen with lights off for a few secs and also a split screen with ugly and weird google android logos, then the actual animation comes

is that normal or what can i do to fix it
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] lapya:
i am second to hear the answer to that Q...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Vk_:
I have also this weird pre-bootanimation with ugly google double-logos and a second or two of blackness. But this happens on both Oxygen and MIUI so I thought that this is a normal for gingerbread-ROMs. On froyo-ROMs this never happened.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
Seems like not everyone have this problem?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JoseRebelo:
It also happens to me on all gingerbread roms (Oxygen/MIUI). Is there any way to fix it?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
Check if you have cust_data in /cust_backup/image

Sent from my Ideos x5
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JaymzBond:
i dont have folder named "cust_data" in "/cust_backup/image" but i have some files in the folder like amss,boot,recovery,emmcboot
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
Okay because I can't find where the bootanimation.zip is on this ROM

Sent from my Ideos x5
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] xann89:
The bootanimation.zip should be in /system/media

Anyway, I'm having the same problem.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
The bootanimation.zip isn't there on OEX or Oxygen, nor in /data/local
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] xann89:
Alright, just did a search on Google.

From Oxygen Forum
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] :
I discovered a major issue!

When we choose the option to reboot the phone we keeps rebooting all the time, never passing the Oxygen screen.

The only way to end this is take the battery off and reflash the rom.

Reboot, therefore, can't be used.

Anyone tried to reboot and had the same problem?

Can we resolve this issue?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
Oh thank you missed that :D I was curious about why we get split screens with some android text and purple then it goes to Oxygen.

So it's framework error?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] xann89:
Actually I want to know that as well. I get the same thing with Oxygen and MIUI. Perhaps someone will enlighten us. :D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JaymzBond:
so miui and oxygen use same method?

bcus i get the split screen thing with bot miui and oxygen
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] anjo88:
My reboot works just fine man!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] anjo88:
CAn u send mms with data off likein miui? I love oxigen but i think they must have 1 option like miui to recive mms with data off don´t u think?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] :
Well mine don't.

More and more start to believe that each mobile is different and with own personality.

Things should be compatible and affect devices the same way.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vlc_marcos:
so mine is a hard core guy, it eats everything that i give ahahahahah.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] levibuko:
I found out that when I use launcher 7 the system gets messed up after2 days. The launcher fc and I have to install a backup.

Is this a os or app problem?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] d3xtr0:
Try with other launcher and find it yourself. But I think it's app problem, cause I've been using oxygen with the same launcher for more then a week and had no FC.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] :
been trying to send MMS's but only did it once and with Data Enabled.

You all send MMS without problems and with Data disabled as its supposed to be?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] axistr:
I also noticed this issue with the current 17/08 Oxygen rom. It seems it's an oxygen issue. I was going to write the oxygen topic then saw your message. When we choose the reboot from the power off menu phone keeps rebooting every 3-4 minutes. Haptic buttons vibrate but nothing shown on the screen just black screen. Wiping cache or factory reset doesn't fix it need to reflash.

I'm going to write to oxygen topic also.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] levibuko:
I used the free version, do you think the paid version would solve it?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] :
Try using Go Launcher
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] :
Ok leave here their feedback so that we know what is that we can do, if there is something we can do in the first place.

Also, anyone with problems sending/receiving MMS?

Seems like MMS only possible with Network Data enabled and in many tries to send and/or receive, also using other mobiles, only manage to successfully send 1 single time...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] anjo88:
Im using adw loucher here and so far no problem just mms that take to long to send!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] :
I'm using Go Launcher and another Theme and works great.

Regarding the MMS you can send them with the option "Data Enabled" unmarked/disabled?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] :
I think I found the solution for this.

I just applied the new CWM 4.0.1.5 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1229326) and after this I flashed did all the wipes and flashed the rom again, like the first time.

I have made several reboot since and so far so good. Didn’t had a single reboot issue anymore.

Just try this method and let us know please.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] d3xtr0:
probably no, since this is based on oxygen and oxygen doesn't allow it.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] anjo88:
Have to be enable if it isn´t don´t send thats the only thing that I think miui is better!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] :
So is not only my problem.

With X5 anything is possible, what is a problem to some is not to others.

Therefore this is a major step back.

Why the hell we need to activate the “Data Enabled” to send/receive mms. They most forget that ppl have to pay the bill in the end of the month..... :D

I don’t understand the common sense of these programmers in complicating a thing that is already simplified.

Also my camera is taking horrible photos, special when inside places and with less light.

Also, after auto focus the image gets very blurry so the result is a very colourful/blurry photo.

I tried to reduce the “exposition” and does improve a bit but the photos still not very good.

Haven’t had this issue with any other roms. Do you have the same problem to?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] anjo88:
I agree why can´t the mobile send mms with data off!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sean707:
this is downside of oxygen rom. have you try other rom?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] :
I have tried them all and if I recall I think MIUI also has this issue.

Nothing like void #eridanus, sorry I'm a fanatic for this one!!!!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sean707:
damn. miui also got same issue? just download the latest one. if i know it, i wouldn't bother to download it. sigh.. you try the latest build miui bro?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] :
try it anyway just to see if also have the same issue as Oxygen, as don't know for sure.

the version I tried was the previous one and in Portuguese PT.

This last one is just in english and chinese so no interest at all for me.

Anyway, MIUI is a snail com pared with this rom....
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] mistral11:
Hello,

flashed this rom and is working excelent, love it. but I can not turn off system key vibrating. is there a way?

thank you.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] :
I just flashed MIUI to test this situation and I can confirm that we are able to send and receive MMS's without the "Data Enabled" feature on.

Can't someone make MIUI preform like OEX?

Excelent design but performances, djesus!!!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] knzo:
I can try to make a MEX (MIUI EXpress).
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] d3xtr0:
that would be nice: p
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vlc_marcos:
So try and we are here to try it ahahaha
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] :
do it bruce lee, c'mon do it, do it, c'mon, yeahhh

But please do MIUI in PT-PT to, because the latest releases are only in Camone and Himalaias
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vlc_marcos:
Ahahah, camone ahha that was good
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] levibuko:
@noejn: if i understood you right you wont update this rom will you?

So my question is, would i have a feelable adventage when i upgrade to the newest oxygen rom?

If yes, do i have to wipe my data before updating? Thank you
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] knzo:
Well uh, I don't know.

If I don't have anything else to do and if there's a new Oxygen release worth the update, why not. I'll also only keep doing this if dzo is fine with it.

Either way, I can't tell if you'll see a speed boost in comparison with normal Oxygen. People tell me this one is snappier but if this is the truth or just placebo effect I have no idea since I can't confirm it myself.

And if you read the first post you'll see the answer for your last question: it will wipe your data, system and cache; it's not optional since the partitions will be upgraded to EXT4 filesystem.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] levibuko:
Allright thank you. U hope you keep updating :)

I posted this in the app forum, but nobody answers :

I have slideit trial, and i like it. I needed to change the keyboard for 2 min then i just switched back to sliedit. But now no keyboard appears. I see a blinking symbol but can't tzpe. The normal android keyboard wokrs. Maybe you can/ wanna help me with this problem?

I don't wont to reinstall it becasue this way ill lose all my saved words.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JaymzBond:
10 chars is a pain
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] knzo:
I said from the start that if dzo didn't want OEX to keep happening, it wouldn't.

I respect too much his work to go against his wishes, he is u8800's oxygen.

Either way, I already have a new version lined up.

I'm just waiting for my "beta-tester" to say something.

After that, I can take a look at MIUI.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] stockwell:
Would you be able to leave /cache as ext3? Making it ext4 won't affect performance in most situations since it's hardly used but it's going to cause problems for people who go from this back to an ext3 rom and don't think to format cache.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] levibuko:
If I update to the new oex do I have to wipe data?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] knzo:
I made it ext4 because of the init script to move the dalvik-cache to /cache partition.

As you know dalvik is accessed for a list of applications' dependencies tree in order to optimize the bytecode so ext4 will make a difference here.

But sure, for a greater compatibility and user comfort I can make it ext3 again.

I will however delete the init script of moving the dalvik-cache.

By the way, be careful using juwe11's RAM optimization script since it changes adj values but not OOM groupings.

vfs_cache_pressure is also too high, the dirty_*ratios are too low and swappiness should be 0. In the next version of OEX I will actually try to push these values to max performance and battery but compensate with a timed memory flush to drop the pagecache, inodes and dentries. :p

Only if you don't have OEX already.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] xdaTyran:
Hey, thanks for this, it's great :D

Just a thing, wireless now takes a long time to go down after turning off the screen, is it normal?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JaymzBond:
that was my reason to ask him :)

btw hope your beta tester is fast enough for us :p
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] knzo:
The update has been pushed for 28th.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] franciscofranco:
That's my boy.

Agora msn caralho.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] JaymzBond:
great news
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] knzo:
Since now franco.Kernel uses the AnyKernel by koush and modded by stockwell, you can flash it over this ROM.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] xdaTyran:
Hum, just tried it but at reboot oxygen logo keeps appearing and disappearing... like it is stuck there.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] mesnati:
Mine too... back to MIUI
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] levibuko:
@knzo: which cpu settings are the best for multi taking? And which io scheduler?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] :
Also had this issue in this rom and also few reboot. All sorted out when I installed the new geno CWM 4.1.0.5

Just update your recovery to this last one and see if helps.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] levibuko:
Today new version comes:)

Edit: no update today?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] knzo:
I'm busy with my own ROM.

I'll update this one when I have the time sorry.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Ricmond_:
Thank you for your work and I look forward to updating Rom OEX
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vlc_marcos:
knzo, i am very intress to see the results on your lg. could you do some vidos with the rom, results of some benchs, antutu, quadrant and linpack and nena. it doesnt mean that want one, but since some time i was trying to find something on youtube but i couldnt.

thanks
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] anjo88:
when u have time update the fastest rom for x5!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] knzo:
Troublesome.

I can tell you I do 2700 on quadrant with froyo and a not-as-optimized kernel as francisco's.

But quadrant sucks and it's made for Qualcomm chipsets. Linpack, like quadrant, is also tailored for CPUs with a higher FPU output (Scorpions win here again). Antutu is quite flawed. Neocore is oriented for Adrenos, etc. etc.

The only relatively good benchmark for me is CF-Bench which only evaluates CPU. Here, the Scorpion on 7x30 will have 5-10% more performance than Hummingbird or OMAP's Cortex A8 (Black). However, the PowerVR SGX 540 and 530 are better than Adreno 205, at least the one in u8800.

The strong points on Black is that the OMAP chipset seems more optimized than other chipsets, including 7x30 and Hummingbird. Things like SmartReflex. I've had a Nexus S before LG Black and also the Huawei u8800 for like 2 weeks and I find the Black to be the most snappy, even though still on froyo and with weaker benchmarks.

Still, u8800 for a low-cost has a more than excellent single-core chipset.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Druida69:
agree!!!

you can't ask much more for a device with this cost.

Is actually very very good price/quality.

If the camera was better this could easily be 5 stars ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vlc_marcos:
And is possible to apply some of your magic kernels on our x5. Ian speaking about the sleep politics all for the battery saving.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Druida69:
apply your magic in new MIUI eheheheheh
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] knzo:
Francisco is one of the best kernel developers out there, most of what I know I learnt from him. That being said I can't offer anything else than he already did to you.

The "Standby battery tweak" you see in my signature is basically a major undervolt on the min freq in combo with a governor that locks clock at that freq when screen is off (suspend profile). I do the undervolt through a module and force the smartreflex recalibration.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vlc_marcos:
Ok ok. I understood. I didn't know. But i think we could undervolt a litkr more the phone because is still spending to much battery.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] j4niS:
this OEX is likely the same with Oxygen but with more speed right?how about the usb tethering?is it works?

if not..is there any solution to use usb tethering?

thanks :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Druida69:
Knzo, can you make an update for this one plz?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] andreasha:
Native tethering on 2.3 dosent work on any rom yet but you can use apps for that, ex. barnacle (just set it to skip wpa_supplicant in settings)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] xBloodyPie:
if you update it , you are god :D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] daledale11:
it work internal sd? oxygen rom not worked internal sd 2 gb
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Ricmond_:
Please Update ROM OEX :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] iamelton:
and to fix what?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] socioan:
hello every one

i just flash this rom and i must say its very good and stable

so dont be afraid to try it

thank you
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] eddydc1:
Tried but it wont boot even no oxygen logo
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] socioan:
i have done this

first i change the boot.img with superboot

download from here http://android.modaco.com/topic/340...-and-then-some-for-the-huawei-u8800-ideos-x5/

then i change recovery.img with Recovery 4.0.0.5 by Genokolar

download from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1130524

be sure to keep backup from the original files

clean and wipe everything

copy rom to your sd card

boot to recovery and choose zip file to instal

reboot

then ok
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Ricmond_:
It would improve the Bluetooth and USB connection to PC.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] coyote1071:
oex

....in my opinion

the best rom for Huawei U8800

incredibly fast and stable ..

thx
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vlc_marcos:

knzo, are you going to do a rom like void. or oex using android 4.0?

Both roms are great and very stable.

+1. That would be awesome!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] r1c4rd0:

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pfmateus:
Who has Aurora ROM (ICS) installed, needs to downgrade to stock kernel .32 Rom, before installing OEX, or not?

Regards,

Pedro Mateus
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] MtG92:
Yes, this is a .32 kernel rom, like all roms with Franco kernel, so you need to downgrade. Here is a little walk through in case you are unsure of how to do it.

Good luck and in the future try to post questions in the Q&A section. ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Djuganight:
Sorry to dig up this old thread but for those looking for a stable and blazing fast .32 rom you should try this one (OEX). This is indeed a very good rom, althought its long overdated :good:

I know its old as hell but I'm finding new ways of sharing something in order to boost my thanks...

Please hit thank button as I'm collecting them to boost my ego and try to be the guru of the forum :highfive:

Hey i did all wipe and i flashing oex rom on .35 kernel but not work. huawei stayed article. always throws reset.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skyseel:
You should downgrade to official 2.2 android, not 2.3.5. After that it will work.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] cobramax:
:D thanks for reply:D 2.3 Better. İ do not think 2.2

U8800 forum runner
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] skyseel:
I don't think you understood - if you want to run OEX (which is 2.3 android), you MUST downgrade to OFFICIAL 2.2 android, root, install CWM and then install OEX. Your phone must NOT be based on OFFICIAL 2.3.5.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] cobramax:
İ never go back .32 kernel :D thanks man :)
[Acer Iconia A500] davidbis:
There are quite a few Iconia ROM's floating about, which all seem quite similar from the eyes of a newbie. I thought I'd start up a general discussion thread about the perceived merits of why you are using a particular ROM.

I've had my Iconia for a few weeks - I upgraded to 3.1, played with it for a few days, then went Minimalist 3.2.1 and have been using it ever since. It's based on the Xoom ROM

My thoughts:

* Generally feels quite snappy - I didn't notice a massive switch between the OTA 3.1 and this however

* 3.2 means there's the "zoom" button which is nice if I ever need it

* The stock Honeycomb clock is there which I prefer to Acer's Simi clone

* I have the occasional application crash - generally without a warning, I get plopped back to the desktop. This has happened across quite a few apps, mostly within the browser, and I lose all my tabs which is a bit irritating. Don't know if this the ROM or Honeycomb in general.

* Love the dropping of all the custom apps which are generally useless to me.

* Would like some customisation options since it looks and feels very vanilla but don't know if there's a lot in that way on the Iconia yet.

So what are you using? What do you like and why?
[Acer Iconia A500] spr0k3t:
also a minimalist 3.2.1 user here. I've added a few things to my aresonal such as thumb board, ADW EX (as a launcher replacement) and a few tweaks like setcpu. Great tablet after removing the crap... but at least it isn't as bad as my phone started out.
[Acer Iconia A500] entropy.of.avarice:
my $0.02 USD

Stock Acer a500 rom - running 3.1 with richardtrip's custom kernel, rooted, crap Acer bloatware disabled, CPU set to 1.4 ghz via set CPU app and I am blown away. More responsive then most desktops/laptops I have seen.
[Acer Iconia A500] PaulsX091:
I'm using taboonay 1.1. It is based off iconia stock rom 3.1. So far it is fast and smooth compared to stock. Dev removed most of the bloat. The only problem I have with it is the random fc I get in market when I check "my apps". I like running custom stock Roms because I like knowing all the features on my tablet works.
[Acer Iconia A500] Diablo67:
I'm liking LightSpeed,its definitely smooth running and i'm not having any video issues like i did in other roms i tried.It's fast without a OC kernel and all the bloatware was removed from the beginning.I'm able to install the honeyvillain game addon.Just an all around good rom.
[Acer Iconia A500] vince1979:
I just switched to the Taboonay 1.1 with Richard's kernel from Virtuous Galaxy and I am very happy that I did. Altought VG is quite fast and has the touchwix UI there were problems with the youtube app (unable to seek) and also the sound was not Dolby. So far I am very happy with Taboonay 1.1.
[Acer Iconia A500] vdub804:
I use the stock 3.1 a500 rom different kernel, btw its fun modding stock and adding the mods/tweaks that you like its also a great learning experience
[Acer Iconia A500] haakuturi:
I'm running LightSpeed as well; my only gripe is that for some reason on this ROM I'm not able to install Facebook for Android. It won't even show in the Market!

My other main gripe about tablets revolves around the external SD card not being more intuitive; I can't see to find any settings to tell apps like Google Music to use the SD card for storage instead of the internal memory.
[Acer Iconia A500] gmelfi:
the best rom and i have tried theem all is wihout a doubt the thor galaxy rom with thor kker.nel 1.15. Itt is fast, support 3g modem and the browser is without ripping effect..... I hate that on other rom...dont forget to use the adw launcher ex...
[Acer Iconia A500] richdaley:
People on here do not talk about that often but it is important to those of us music lovers. I always thought Dolby was mostly just marketing BS but there is a dramatic difference in the sound.

Taboonay 1.1 with Thor's kernel works great for me and since it is built on the stock rom it includes dolby.
