I did not backup bevore erasing, so i only can restore my IMEI. The MAC comes from the serial. I find no way to get back original Serial and MAC

So i can't test Android 4.4 ROM :(.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] oL00No:
Any way to set fake serial?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jopsinas:
If random mac shows up on ics, so then you could try to back it up with 5irom and restore on kk.

Hi! I cannot post it in the thread, because I haven't wrote any post, so it's not permitted for me to write it dev forums

I've got solution for me for issue when can't unlock device because of black screen. I've set minimum CPU frequency to 245, and it works! I think, when min freq is 122 device just have no time to wake up and goes to sleep mode again before screen become active.

Btw thank you very much for your work, it's the most stable ROM for U8860 I ever used. I have about 60 apps installed, but ROM works very well! Thank youuu

Oh and this is the log regarding the black screen on browsers issue:

this is something I found which is quite related:

I installed this and the ROM works. But there's no playstore. So I installed the gapps but ends up with a black screen thereafter. According to an earlier post, I should not install gapps because the combined size is larger than the /system partition.

Sorry but how do I get playstore installed in this ROM then?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] det-happy:
Try to delete Chrome and YouTube, the 2 biggest System Apps. (i dont't test that but I'll try that this after my work)

---------- Post added at 08:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:30 AM ----------

Or copy a Launcher.apk on your SD an reinstall the Launcher. Some one wrote, that the Gapps Script remove the launcher
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
bootloop {fixed}

i was re installing gapps because google play started not to work on me... it said connection failed all the time, i tried with data and wifi (i made sure i was connected which i was) and kept saying connection failed... so i flashed the same gapps again and i got a blank launcher, rebooted ended up in bootloop... now i am back on b919 for a few hours before i flash again :p:p:p:p

---------- Post added at 09:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:20 AM ----------

i will try to delete chrome and youtube (with the help of titanium backup). How will i copy Launcher.apk ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] desalesouche:
i will upload rom with minimal gapps as i did.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] limzm:
Just to educate or let people know that any ROM that you downloaded, you can edit it with WinRAR or any archiver tool on your computer.

So, what I did was I opened up the zip file:

removed Chrome from /system/app

removed most of the ringtones,notifications and alarms from /system/media/audio/ and place only one of my favourite each inside.

replaced bootanimation.zip with a smaller size (Stock Nexus 5 have 1.2MB instead of 1.8MB or maybe you can download one of the AOKP ROM which the bootanimation.zip is only 1MB)

framework-res.apk could be recompiled to smaller size if the resources.arsc file has been edited but I did not do so, only after flashing.

this should reduce the zip from 210MB to maybe 178MB.

then I download GApps Core from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2012857:

opened up the zip file and place GoogleHome.apk inside /system/app .

After which, flash those 2 zip I've edited.

I have about 7MB left on /system partition after flashing. :good:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] desalesouche:
did you try running art ?working good?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] defybest:
:D I have no problem with previous build 5th of Jan. Mac address good, imei good, no need flash gapps (included), no problem accessing play store, fully functionally, some tweak for battery life, minimal app notification. I always clear cache and dalvik cache before and after flashing rom. Stick to 5th jan build for now :D:D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
That sounds confusing :confused::confused::confused::confused:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I found gapps.... all I had to do was reboot twice
[Miscellaneous Android Development] limzm:
Nope I have modified framework-res.apk and other system files so I did not try.

Probably it is haha! This has always been my doing since I knew the zip can be edited, it's the best way to change some sounds, or install ad-blocking hosts file the fast way. And it is also the same as having a Root Explorer and replacing files inside /system while your phone is running.

And well, because there are many file operations there, you just have to know which file to delete and replace, and have your files ready to drag and drop in the ROM and all's good.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
That sounds cool :D:D:sly::sly::sly:

I'll just stick to deleting chrome some apps :p

---------- Post added at 11:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:13 AM ----------

What about if u compress the whole zip... would it still work ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] limzm:
The method I use will help in one time flash and everything is good.

When you delete or add a file, WinRAR should auto compress depending on its current settings.

I never tried repacking the zip before.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] desalesouche:
please upload me the zip you did with rom included
[Miscellaneous Android Development] teo_simon:
I've done according to your instructions, deleted chrome and youtube, deleted useless audio files and put in googlehome.apk in the cm11.zip file. Can flash but still encountered the black screen. I also tried without the googlehome.apk in the cm11.zip file but the same black screen appeared. Any advice? Thanks.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bibile:
Thx desalesouche. Can you do the same thing like for the slim roms (only GMAIL/PLAYSTORE...) + another one for the extras apks ?

Moreover, is it possible to get a tutorial to backup the IMEI? :) (haven't found any good one)

Did you flash the Standard GApps?

I mentioned with a link saying that I downloaded

another

Gapps package (Gapps Core which is only 17MB) and then I pulled the GoogleHome.apk from

which I downloaded.

Let me upload those files.

So, I tested it.

IMEI, MAC and serial OK, good.

Launcher not started, I have blackscreen and top side controls. If touching black screen, logging this

Correcting work of videodriver - I can see app previews and screenshots. If quickly change windows, that titles of previews through time rendered as rectangle or normally, as text.

I can try install gapps and manually install another launcher and continue testing.

What if u could merge the gapps and cm11 together and then delete some apps,ringtones etc. And see if the launcher will work ? Would that not work ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] h33x:
So. I delete Youtube from /system and flashing gapps standard. System not work.

(If I say, that system not work, it means, that system doesn't boot).

I try modify gapps sh script (70-gapps.sh), delete functions, that removing launchers an other apps, flash it - system not work.

If flash gapps core, than system boot and work OK, but not have Google play app.

(This proves, that gapps standard deleting many applications, but installed one or two instead).

After, I delete from /META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script "delete" instructions, save file and repack gapps standard. Flash it - and all worked!

But I missed Google Play app :) Because gapps standard (and other) NOT provided this application, I download apk file from http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2439859&d=1386453441 and install from console.

For install need copy apk file com.android.vending-4.5.10.apk to /sdcard and manually run pm command.

In platform-tools run terminal commands:

adb push <path>/com.android.vending-4.5.10.apk /sdcard
adb shell
shell@u8860:/ $ pm install /sdcard/com.android.vending-4.5.10.apk

After this you have full value phone. further testing :)

---------- Post added at 09:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:09 PM ----------

And more.

Not necessarily deleting some ringtones, if you flash gapps standard. Enough delete Youtube app.

And if you install gapps manually from apk files, you don't delete nothing.

---------- Post added at 09:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:13 PM ----------

Oops! 4:16 Am...

good night guys! Remember, that not flash gapps standard without modify installer script.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] :
Im noob at editing .zip but which folders can I edit and which I can't ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] limzm:
You need to use computer, not phone, to delete files inside the zip, or it won't work.

Just download the 2 files I've uploaded and flash both of it. You'll see it works fine.

[MENTION=5386849]bublz654[/MENTION] /system/app and /system/media/audio are your main objectives.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] limzm:
My objective was to reduce the size of the ROM and to use GEL. And Play Store is actually included in the CM itself.

My apologies, the latest build didn't have. The filename is Phonesky.apk

Gapps core is only 17MB while standard is 70MB.

Gapps core does not include GEL so I had to place the apk myself into core.

Yes that would work. Like I said the black screen issue is because Launcher3.apk was removed after flashing gapps, and because there's not enough space on /system, GoogleHome.apk which is the launcher did not managed to be installed.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] det-happy:
The latest Build work on Devices without valid MAC Adresse Yeah.

Can someone upload an working Version of Gapps?

I try following this night:

After boot installing Root-Explorer, deleting Chrome.apk, copy launcher3.apk to /data/App and flash Gapps.

After Reboot the launcher is working, but Google Play still missing and add Google-Account failed

But I don't know where get this.
