Quick thoughts and facts about the .35 kernel version (see post #11)

- Custom theme as stock, blends a little blue and ICS-esque stuff into the default theme, and I love it, looks really fresh

- ICS icons too, not a big fan of them, luckily there's always the Vexillum Project icons to use. The font is awesome.

- It's based on MIUI 2.1.13 and it uses ret4rt's 2.6.35.7 kernel dated January 13th

- English is default language, Traditional and Simplified Chinese are the other choices

- Speaker still has the buggy and crackling sound while playing music :(

- Can't say if it's faster than ret4rt's MIUI, needs a few days of testing at least

Will edit this post later on as I see fit
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] exxxplorer:
I think performance X is of interest for more :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] trocLas:
Regarding the Incall volume and the speaker background noise (like extreme bass) are fixed?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dream4:
sorry guys,i mean b163,absolutely.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] trocLas:
I had Franco's kernel, flashed the boot time fix and I still continue with Franco's kernel (in my phone it did not installed other kernel).
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] izzoe:
Thanks for this ROM.. Really appreciate the fast camera and fast boot time..
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] That-Guy:
Isn't the kernel located in the boot.img or am I wrong?

or maybe the slow boot fix now uses the Franco Kernel?

:confused:
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dancer_69:
I had franco' s kernel too before apply the fix, but I had a modified version with logcat enabled. I just checked and see that kernel is still franco's, but when I checked logcat function I see that it doesn't work anymore. So seems that the fix uses Franco kernel too.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] That-Guy:
Cool thanks! Will give it a try now :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] xpandnz:
A couple of questions about this rom:

Is the theme engine the same as MIUI?

Is it possible for the current developers of MIUI to add the Bravia Engine for the camera into the existing rom?

Any ETA on when a .35 version would be available? I don't intend to go back to .32

Pretty interesting reading this thread. It seems your ROM is amazing. I can't wait to try it once its on .35
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] eddydc1:
There is .35, 2 page first post :) btw its not final version

tapatalked
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] xpandnz:
Oh yes, I did see this. I did not try because not final version. I'll have a read to see how people have gone with it.

Do you know about the other questions?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] exxxplorer:
Added this text firts post.	;)

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] PaulMilbank:
Boot.img includes zimage (kernel) but it also includes a few startup scripts and files and folders. It may well be that one of the startup scripts has been modified and the zimage is untouched.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] That-Guy:
Anyone using Avast Anti-Virus with this ROM?

It all works apart from when I get to setting up Anti-Theft, it cannot seem to connect to the Avast Servers while setting up.

Anyone else had this problem?

---------- Post added at 10:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:21 PM ----------

So inside the .zip file there is a complete boot.img, if it doesn't replace the kernel does the install script merge the new boot.img with the existing boot.img which is already on the phone?

or does it simply out right replace it? If it replaces the boot.img the phone will be using what ever kernel is in the fix.zip right?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dancer_69:
I have a question about this rom.

I made a modified version of franco kernel 19Nov version, in which I've enabled logcat.

I just realised that it doesn' t work with this rom. I' ve tested this kernel before some time with cm7 and miui roms, and this function worked every time. In this rom it doesn't work and logcat gives the same error as the original franco kernel:

Unable to open log device '/dev/log/main': No such file or directory

Do I need to do something more on this rom to enable logcat(it' s supported from kernel).

Also, if I remember well this version of franco' s kernel had more I/O schedulers.

Now I have only noop and deadline.

Can someone from the team give some infos or hints?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] izzoe:
Im pretty sure inside the fix is franco kernel since when i first flash this rom, i got stockwell kernel.. But the boot time is longggggg... And i apply the fix, the boot time back to normal and in settings my kernel changed to Franco kernel..
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] That-Guy:
Ah right cool so this confirms the Slow Boot fix contains the Franco Kernel.

Thats fine and all I need to know, so thank you :D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] PaulMilbank:
Yep, there is a zimage in there, it must be franco's then.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] That-Guy:
Great so back to my original question....

Anyone using Avast Anti-Virus with this ROM?

It all works apart from when I get to setting up Anti-Theft, it cannot seem to connect to the Avast Servers while setting up.

Anyone else had this problem?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] PaulMilbank:
Anyone having odd pauses and stuttering with 720p video recording? I have tried it and get audio pauses and pops as well as slightly stuttery video. I cant recall if oxygen had these as well.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] That-Guy:
Just tried the "Slow boot fix" and it helped boot speed but then the "Move Data to SD Card" bug was back which means I had to re-flash the franco kernel to fix it.

Think I will just live with the slower boot time, not a major concern for me as phone is almost always on.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Tommixoft:
Why anybody needs antivirus in android? do you think they can help? :) Don't be naive.. best protection is firewall, which is included in this rom.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] m3talmike:
Ιf you have "Move Data to SD Card" message then delete everything from /data/sdcard and you will be ok ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] n0_xQuZe:
So far, so good.

I have been testing this ROM since yesterday night, i haven't found any bugs so far and the phone is working flawlessly.

*Pros

-It's fast

-Good battery life

-Smooth feel

-Many features

-Bug Free

-Fast Camera Focus

*Cons

-Some Chinese in settings menu even after many reboots :/

-Appearance could have been better

Overall good ROM, i'm using it with franco.kernel and it's OK

I would give it 8.5/10
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] MosTERRA:
Elite ROM v9.6 Service Pack 1 (or v9.6a) is testing.

Probable release to Thursday or Friday

Changes:

Added language settings menu (after installation)

Added to the Compass application.

Adding extra sensor drivers.

When the camera's video recording problems in 1280x720 resolution or decreased slightly.

Franco kernel (19 November 2011) was added.

Added Fast boot patch.

CWM setup messages translated to English

Added ZRAM

Free RAM management changed (minor changes)

Photo capture quality is improved slightly.

Example:
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] That-Guy:
Thats your opinion not mine. I have an anti-virus installed because I want the extra protection, thats my choice.

Anyway problem is not sorted, must of been a problem with their servers.

A few people have said this but never works for me.

Not a problem as re-flashing the Franco Kernel fixed it :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] RockyXS:
First issue with this rom after few days of usage, battery was about 40% and then I made one 3 minute phone call and my battery dropped to 2% and I had to recharge it. What's up with that?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Cinthiar:
Wipe your battery stats.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jeremysherriff:
I get similar things with other MIUI ROM's (I have tried several, all seem to do this for me).

A battery-stats wipe is something I do with every new ROM, so that's not the answer.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] trocLas:
It happened to my phone today. Battery was at 46% and after a phone call, battery dropped to 14%, but it stayed in 14% until now (and continues, after like 6 hours).

But this already happened to me with other ROM's, so its not a big deal.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] rimsilva:
Yeap, the eternal discuss around phones... BATTERY! Is the weakness of ANDROID! :mad:
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] RockyXS:
It's quite big deal because if you have data or wifi on it drains battery in few minutes and then you are stuck without phone. Reboot doesn't help either.

If your phone is idle at that time then is not a big deal, I agree.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] trocLas:
I allways have the Wi-Fi home (turn off only at night), and the battery lasts 1.5 days minimum (even with that "battery bug"). Yesterday, it dropped from 46% to 14% during a phone call and stayed at 14% until I decided to charge the phone (after about 9 hours the dropping happened).

It says it is 14%, but really it isn't. So, try do another battery calibration. If the problem persists, you just have to live with it :|
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] sentiment:
Nice wifi and camera but 802.1 eap phase 2 authentication doesnt work..
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jerry00:
I am currently running Oxygen 2.3.2(android version 2.3.7, build number GWK), and have never had the official 2.3 on my phone. Do i still have to reflash my phone to the B138 or B163 stock ROM before flashing this ROM? if yes, where do i download it?

edit: also, it says i need CWM 5.0.2.3. does it matter if i have 5.0.2.6? (sorry if i am asking stupid questions, i just like to be sure so i don't brick my phone :P
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] julle131:
You dont need to flash official. But if you have anu problems, then flash b138 and try again.

Use 5.0.2.6. Worked for me.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] levibuko:
i have a problem. sometimes it tells me tht i have no sim card but i have one. it looks than like on the image and just a reboot helps. this also happens when i use the flightmode.

when i deactived the flightmode it doesnt ask for a pin
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] levibuko:
cant you help me? its very annoying when i have to reboot every 6 or 7 hours because it doesnt see my simcard
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] snekkarn:
Bluetooth dosnt work, really annoying...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jeremysherriff:
Is anyone else having this?

Also, what do you mean "doesn't" - can you pair devices? Or is all BT functionality broken?

I was planning to load this rom up this weekend but BT is a deal-breaker, it's needed for hands-free in the car (I don't want $200 fines!!)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] PaulMilbank:
That has not been my experience, I am sticking with this rom precisely because bluetooth performance is so good. It is better than oxygen which was my previous rom. With oxygen, connection was very slow and voice was very distorted for me so eliterom is a breath of fresh air with near instant phonebook upload and great sound.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] edarr:
hi

I have the last CM7 from November with .32 kernel. My internal memory is only 1.45GB, because I partitioning the disk. Must I need to put the original size of internal memory before to go to android 2.2? Or can I install this rom without installing 2.2 first?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jeremysherriff:
I'm not 110% sure about this ROM, but with some other ROM's you *must* return to the default disk layout first.

A good example is @genokolar the dev, who actually bricked his u8800 because didn't revert to the original partition layout before flashing a rom.

I say better to be safe than sorry..
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Mr.Moriarty:
They published new rom called 9.6a based on 2.2 Froyo again. I tried , it has english setup and also it is english as default.

http://forum.donanimhaber.com/m_56437315/mpage_1/key_/tm.htm

http://www.mediafire.com/?mst1gjxg88s2280 (Elite.ROM.v9.6a.by.TerraMino_2012-02-09.zip)

EDIT : it works like charm =)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Cinthiar:
None of the roms for U8800 need the default partition. You can install any rom just fine with custom partitions. Only problem comes with dual boot if you try to install official GB with it in use. Geno didn't brick his phone because of custom partitions, it was because of dual boot feature. You should get your facts straight.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] krish_nank:
Full of FC... mobile boot then starts FC. Where its working good? May be i have done some thing WRONG
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] anjo88:
Is working good can u add this rom to the first post with changelog please?:D:D:D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] krish_nank:
Hea sorry friends its working good, my bad flash...... this time with franco kernel.... :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] anjo88:
hey man so what about this update it´s fastest?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] snekkarn:
my bad, bluetooth is working fine. but activating it thru tools in dropscreen made it crash. so when i restarted the phone and activated it from system menu it worked.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] edarr:
how I can go back to original 2.2? or can I do the update to this rom with my CM7 .32 kernel?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Pulseuser:
Had a strange problem with this ROM:

Im coming from ret4rt's MIUI 2.1.20 the .32 kernel (i havent upgraded to 2.3 at all)

So i downloaded the ROM, the 3d perfromance zip and the slow boot fix - and also stockwells CWM 5.0.2.6 as i previously had an older version. Firstly i upgraded the CWM to the newer version and that went perfectly well, then i went on to flash all the things i downloaded - ROM,3d zip and then the slow boot fix. All of this also went well and rom booted up and was working perfectly fine.

Until...i charged it over night, woke up to remove it from the charger as it was full, rebooted it(reboot a day keeps the lag away :) ) then unfortunately it didnt boot back up.

I took the battery out many times to see if it was jus a random problem but it wasnt. Booted into CWM 5.0.2.6 and it worked fine - wiped the dalvik cache + fixed permissions, rebooted again but still the same problem. I had to recover an back up that i made unfortunately

Was really lookin forward to that rom :( , hope anyone can solve my problem :)

Great job on the rom it looked really good when i was able to try it

P.S i didnt downgrade to an official 2.2 b163 or b138 as i was told it was only really necessary when someone had already upgraded to an official 2.3 rom .35 kernel.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jeremysherriff:
Hey bro, we're all friends here there's no need to be nasty. I was trying to be helpful to someone. And given that the dual-boot system requires a non-standard partition layout, I wasn't far off.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] PaulMilbank:
Maybe try flash one at a time with reboots in between. Rom first, then fixes to see where the problem lies.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Gaspias:
Founded :D ... i'm still a noob on this matter :D

hugs

Hy, I've installed this rom in my huawey, but can not access internet or MMS, it seems it has no configuration, I can only find VPN settings not APN. how can i configure?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] edarr:
go to the market and search for APN Portugal
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] trocLas:
Do you experience some lag after like 1/2 days without rebooting? I see that right after I reboot the device, it has about 190 Mb of free RAM memory. But, after about a day, I notice lag using the phone, and I check and free RAM memory is about 50/40 Mb. Is there any way to solve this problem?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] snake_boss:
So the version 9.6a

What's the difference? As can I understand it comes with GLP drivers by defaut?

Can we install the last FF kernel?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Jacky444:
Thank you very much ! Finally some version of MIUI with tweaks I wanted working fine =). I have no issues so far... Great rom !

Thanks for sharing !
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] snake_boss:
Is there anyone o could make extended settings for MIUI work in this rom? Or at least know the framework version to try the extended settings from that Friday!

Extended Settings are where:http://miuiandroid.com/community/threads/mod-extended-settings-menu-options.7738/

Regards
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] levibuko:
i mounted system and then.flashed extended settings and it worked
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] snake_boss:
U use the zip? I only tried the .apk, I will test with the zip!

Thankz
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] rimsilva:
With me the .apk never works, I prefer to install the .zip.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] joao pestana:
Please update this topic with the new version. I've seen that a new versiona has been released but i cannot understand turkish... this is the best rom i've used in my Ideos!

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] krish_nank:
I have already downloaded this Elite.ROM.v9.7.with.Full.Wiper_by.TerraMino_2012-02-13.zip and using....ROM having stockwells OCT kernel where as 9.6a was having latest franco kernel.......
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] snake_boss:
with the zip the phone enters on a loopboot. I use the 2.2.10 version... Guess my phone don't like MIUI Settings xD
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] exxxplorer:

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dancer_69:

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] snake_boss:

If the reports are ok, i will try it tomorrow
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] exxxplorer:

enjoy it!

thanks TerraMino! (aka mosTERRA)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] joao pestana:
The new version is not Multilanguage... only have english, chinese and turkish... :-(

I've installed with all wipes, and when i was in the middle of the restore of my applications and settings (using MIUI Backup from Elite 9.6), the phone shutdown and i got a bootloop reboot.

I cannot do restore from Elite 9.6?

I've returned to 9.6 until i have time to try again.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] khunjj:
New ROM? Where can I find it? Is it better than this Elite ROM?

Thanks,
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jeremysherriff:
ORD much? lol
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] khunjj:
It seems I have ORD ..... :p
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jeremysherriff:

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] anjo88:
I have elite 9.6a should I wipe date before instal elite 9.7
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] darthist:
yes wipe cache and wipe dalvik
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] anjo88:
there is a new multi language version of 9.7

http://www.mediafire.com/?96guef56jxlmnv1

---------- Post added at 02:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:18 PM ----------

I have 9.6a if i INSTAL 9.7 will wipe my data?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] pentes:
I had v9.6 and updated to v9.7. But reverted to v9.6 again...

problems with the multi language, backligt screen in auto mode not efficient, too bright and no light on the keypad...

After many reeboots and changes on x5 settings, i could not turn on the keypad led's.

I made the cache partition and dalvik wipe, with CWM 5.0.2.7

Thanks anyway the great work you are doing ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] dancer_69:
I've just flashed the multilanguage version. I've tried 9.6, 9.6 bootfix, 9. 6a, 9.7 galnet also. The annoying sd move message in every reboot still exists on all these versions.

Is so difficult to be fixed?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Tmp341:
Probably :rolleyes:

Author says: this problem is caused by wrong installation or something similar.Try reinstalling ;)

Install B163 again, install CMW 5.0.2.7, from internal SD finally install v9.7..
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] R4DK0:
Hello!

I am currently at CM7 .35, but I am really annoyed by the sound problems (and a few glitches).

Do I have to install 9.7 from internal SD card? Can anybody post a link for the CWM I should use for flashing? Most links on mediafire are dead and multiupload is down (apart from megaupload).

Thank you very much! Now I must go back to studying, exam is tomorrow :)

One other thing. I am thinking of hosting all of the files regarding u8800, cause I am really annoyed by the links going down. Is that OK here on xda? I have 20Mbps upload speed and a lot of space unused. I am also thinking about redundancy, Dropbox and sourceforge.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
A bit off topic, but a great idea... it starts to be hard to find working links for all the stuff here in the forum...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Gefjon:
I have now tried the 9.7-version, but have after some testing I reverted back to 9.6.

In the 9.7-version, there is no light in the keypad. I also experienced the 9.7-version to be laggy after reinstalling all my apps.

Anyway. Thanks to the developer for this great ROM! Keep up the good work.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] khunjj:
+1 back to 9.6a

Hope 9.8 will be out soon
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] anjo88:

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] vlc_marcos:
We can go directly to the 9.7 version?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] jeremysherriff:
Yes, as long as you are currently running a ROM with a .32 kernel.

Please update the first page, withe the new links, instructions and changelogs... i cannot understand Turkish and even with Google Translator i cannot understand if the new roms include the 3d upgrade, wich kernel may i use or known bugs.

I'm using 9.6 and is the rom i use most, because i love the looks, speed and stability! I've tried the olf 9.7 but i find that rom more buggy...

Thanks for this excelent rom!

Can someone tell if softkey backlight stays on at all the time in 9.7?

Sent from my U8800
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] A.C.A.B.:
no PT support for this releases?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] joao pestana:
And known bugs? There are any?

Wich kernel is used in 9.7 multilanguage? Stockwell's or Franco?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fjsferreira:
It has :D I was afraid that it wouldn't also... but it has portuguese.

One problem though, softkey backlight turns off if screen isn't in full brightness.
