[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] zontovolo:
but how is corrupted since it does load and says install completed. anyway i l try from internal this time i l respond soon :D

still even at internal its the same now i l try it again without external sdcard. post soon again.

Ok,i give up really dont know what is happening, even with internal, external sd out and recovery reboots and dalvik wipes still V1.0 dontknow what is happening. IF i update the whole new v1.1 package? with wipe data/factory dalviks etc like i did with V1.0 will it work? btw the update takes like half second but concidering the update zip is 250kb i think its ok right?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Are you sure that you have CWM Recovery 5.0.2.7?

Can you open the zip archive and look into if there are files? Maybe your download file is corrupted. I attach also the MD5 for this reason...

Your sdcard is like a mistery :D

@ zontovolo

Yes man, please try wiping all you can wipe because your smartphone needs to be refrashed a little maybe...

Only you are having these strange symptoms, very very strange...

Try installing the full rom v1.1 and if you can please format your external sdcard with SD Formatter by Panasonic.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] zontovolo:
Yes CWM 5.0.2.7 i have. Into zip there are 3 folders Meta inf system and temp and there is no MD5 missmatch. its a mystery for me too :D well tell me if i pass the whole package from beggining will it be ok? data factory dalvik reboots etc?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Oh NOOOOO!

I said to download the NEW PACKAGE HERE!

Please pay attention, please!

You have the old package where I forgot to update the info version!

Almost solved your mistery? hahahah
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] zontovolo:
will try again with the new package! reply soon then but i think i have downloaded this file like 15 times in a row :D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Ok, but before downloading the new package, please delete every trace of other zip files because they have all the same name!

Good luck!

Anyway the newer package does not contain the temp folder!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] zontovolo:
ok i was pretty sure the same was gona happen even with the "NEW package ere" thingie :D i l try and get the whole package from the start not the update maybe it will work this way. who knows!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
It will work for sure because only the old package contains the temp folder.

The new one has only two folders and you have tried installing 15-times the same package. This is the only reason why your rom version apperas to be again and again 1.0.

I advice to you to download the only upgrade package. Then you are free ;)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] zontovolo:
i was downloading the small zip from http://code.google.com/p/kalo/downloads/list still dunno now i passed the whole package will see what will happen :D

---------- Post added at 11:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:20 PM ----------

anyway the whole package worked wiped data factory cache dalvik istall from zip etc took 2 minutes now its KALo v1.1 :)

---------- Post added at 11:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:22 PM ----------

Ok, i found something dunno what it is but i cant download anything from market. it says application can not be downloaded error (-101) and error (403), what that might be?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Can I know what applications are you trying to download from Google play?

From a wifi network or 3g?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] zontovolo:
any application i tryed and its over my house wifi. i l restart maybe will fix.

---------- Post added at 12:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:01 AM ----------

ok no dunno for what reason but when i restarted the 1 application was installed(like ghost installed? it was failing before and i didnt installed it) and i downloaded another one with no problem. seems ok now :D

---------- Post added at 12:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:06 AM ----------

Ok to sum up this ROM is awasome. Just for installing it from B512 official i was i have like 50mb free RAM than before. i see no lags or something WIFI works ok Bluetooth works fine calls and messages work fine its overall quality is amazing :) nice RoM mate keep up the good work.! Hope i didnt break your nerves for posting all the time hehe.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Lotyh:
I get the same error "application can not be downloaded error (-101)" every time I try to download applications from Google Play.

overall your rom is really awesome!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Please try with a reboot but I don't have this bug.

Maybe it's a Google Play bug.

Edit: yes, it appears to be a google problem

Is the latest version of Phone.apk?

I have installed on my Kalo2.0 , ... although I have not had any problems with the previous Phone.apk
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Yes, that is the latest modded Phone.apk, apparently the same as the v2.0.

Anyway I am running a new version, v2.1

without

Superuser.apk, I have enabled permanent root access for all applications!

Avoiding the SuperUser.apk has been a sort of goal for me because I always set up "allow" answer, no notifications, no annoying questions and popups when I open root-based applications. For this reasons SuperUser is always a ghost application, I saw that annoying icon in the app drawer and I never tap on it. The new v2.1 is more free!

Minor updates like Dolphin HD and the new modded Phone.apk ;)

It's running always better ;)

Kalo can u give a help on post 780 ???? Becasue i don't want to upgrade to v2..Takes me much time... Thanks!!!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Mmmmm, nobody has this problem...

I know that it's a loss of time to upgrade to v2.0 but I don't know what to do...

Try with a Wipe Dalvik Cache, maybe this can help you!

OK thanks!!! But can u do me a favour? Can u upload the file of camera from ur android file? Becasue i go in there and it's missing?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Michalisx5:
Guys can i go again from v1.9 to v1.8 with the same steps?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Filatov.p:

I would like a music player lightweight and who uses tiny system memory.

What do you recommend?

Anyone knows the player Songbird ?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Michalisx5:

I miss in the 2,0 version the android animated bootlogo? Is this normal?

Sent from my finger's to your eye's!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Yes, it's normal because I disabled the bootanimation.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] korekore1:
Hey Kalo,running 2.1 since yesterday,all running good!

I replaced zeam with launcher pro,i really like zeam's speed,but launcher pro is smoother with the homescreen transitions and animations and a lot more customizable.

So here is my question:Is there any performance difference when you put the launcher in system apps (like you did in previous versions with launcher pro) than when you just install it like a regular app?

I mean is there any optimization applied when you put it as a system app or the performance is the same both ways?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Hi korekore1,

yes, the v2.1 is running very good!

If you change an apk file in /system/app with another one, installing as external program, nothing changes!

The simple fact is that Zeam Launcher is the most light and I prefer this because the total dimension [MB] of zip file is a little minor.

If it should be possible, I would create a ROM without any kind of launcher, but this is not possible because any ROM needs at least one launcher!

(A ROM without launcher will not be able to boot correctly)

For example I used this criterion for the music player.

No Huawei Multimedia program, no Google Music, no other multimedia application because the ROM can live without the music player and I leave free any user to choose the better player.

Any B876_KALO is a starting point to "build" your customized ROM.

For this reason it needs to be the most light possible (e.g. no bootanimation, no multimedia preferences, no particular customization, no heavy themes).

Regards,

kalo86
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] korekore1:
yes,i understand.its good to keep it minimal! so i have the same performance if i install the launcher with a normal installation?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Yes, same performance! :)

Happy Easter!!!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] GeorgT:
Is the boot faster without the bootanamation kalo?

Sent from my finger's to your eye's!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Yes, it's faster :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Hello People!

Great news for the next release!

Optimized all system applications, free memory at the first boot is 871MB! Record!

Changed icons of Phone.apk, Contacts.apk and MMS.apk.

Removed definitely any trace of power saving app.

For example, even if Power Saving function is not available (because I did not enablet this in the ROM), you can always see the widget.

In the next release, B876_KALO_v2.2, there won't be any trace more!

It's looking fine ;)

Still testing because I touched all apk file inside... but no bugs/problems untill now.

UPDATE

: If someone wants to test the new v2.2 (beta), please send me a private message.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] ilciumbia:
You know what would be nice Kalo? To have a .zip which could be an upgrade to the existing ROM that we have installed... Because formatting, erasing, reinstalling, reconfiguring everything is really a pain the *** ;)

Would it be too complicated to upgrade without full wipes?...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
It would be great, but in this case it's not possible because I touched all system apps... I'm sorry!

I can also create an update package, but to be installed correctly it requires all kind of wipes.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Lotyh:
How can I disable Volume Rocker? It really annoys me.

Thank you in advance
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Filatov.p:
I found it myself :D It runs great, no bugs found for about 10 hours of use
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] korekore1:
Hello there!Can you please tell me what is the safest way to remove system apps?There are still a few which i don't use.I usually use titanium but i was wondering if there is a better or manual method
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Please flash this zip file through Recovery.

You will wake up the screen with the stock configuration (the power button only).

The safest way is to remove apk file manually with Root Explorer: simply go to /system/app, mount the partition in R/W and just delete what you need.

It's easy, fast, secure and simple!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] korekore1:
Thanks!After 3 days with 2.1 all running beautiful!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Lotyh:
Thank you for your response Kalo! What zip file? Seems like I am too tired to see it :p

Anyway testing 2.2 now and seems to run great!

Thank you
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Sorry! This is the link: http://kalo.googlecode.com/files/stock_unlock_screen.zip
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Lotyh:
Thank you!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Filatov.p:
Dear Kalo :)

4PDA users, represented by Vent88, made a little researech, and found out, that phone without animation boots up in almost the same time as with animation. That black screen is showing up the same amount of time as stansard Huawei fireworks animation, but looks much better :)

Probably it would be better to set the standard boot animation? :)

Regards and best wishes from 4PDA :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] linomaniac:
yes, how to change boot animation? placing the files into system/media does not work, placing into system/bin without suffix does not work too.

The black screen is really ugly and the speed-up is unmeasurable.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Ok, thank you, I noticed only "a little" difference without the bootanimation but (of course) it's not a problem to leave the option as "available".

I will change this option in the next v2.2 (final).

Regards!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
You have to edit /system/build.prop, in particular you have to delete the line:

debug.sf.nobootanimation=1

Then save the edited file, reboot and enjoy your bootanimation ;)

Edit: in the next v2.2 there will be again "AN Reboot" since I noticed a little bug with the WiFi. Sometimes when you power on (or reboot) your device, WiFi turns on automatically even if WiFi was turned off before shutting down. This bug is still a mistery and it doesn't depend by any Rebooter or similar multy-ways rebooter like AN Reboot. Since AN Reboot is more light, I will choose this one for the next releases.

Calculator and MMS will be the Android stock, not the Huawei ones. I noticed a better management with sms (fast sending) and applications Calc and MMS are very light compared to the Huawei-customized.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] rilam1987:
Kalo thanks you for this awesome rom.Keep it clean as possible you can.Will you upload the 2.2 final today or tomorrow?I want to update from

cm-7.2.0-RC0-u8800pro-Geno-120202

that i use 2 months now.I want to update to your rom because it is more stable and clean.Thanks you again keep up the good work.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Lotyh:
I also notice a bug, when i turn on the "data switch" from the notifications, if I try to turn it off again, the "data switch" stays on. Anyone have the same problem?

noticed on v1.9/2.0/2.1/2.2(beta)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] korekore1:
hello there,something weird happened.

I was editing build.prop with root explorer and somehow when i re-opened it a few hours ago it was completely blank.

I had also deleted a file ''build.prop.original'' that i had found laying around in the sd card,i don't know what program had created it.So is it ok to just paste a copy of the original build.prop from the rom zip?And what permissions do i have to enable?

edit:well i did that and i set permissions rw- , r-- , r-- .Is this ok or i have to do something different?

edit 2 :seems like something went bad,after i reboot the launcher freezes for 4-5 seconds,also apps take longer to load and i get a lot of ''the activity is not responding'' messages that go away after i press wait.

Can i do something about that or will i have to re-install the rom?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
I never use data switch, so please test it several time.

Anyway I never modified/edited the data switch :confused:

korekore1............ LOL

Did you follow steps for editing the build.prop file? It's really simple, I repeat again:

1) Open Root Explorer and navigate to /system;

2) Tap on the button "Mount R/W";

3) Long press on build.prop and seelct "Open in Text Editor";

4) Delete/Edit what you need and exit with the softkey "back";

5) Save then your edited file;

6) Notice that Root Explorer is really SMART because it saved always a backup file with the previous stock file (without any modification);

7) Reboot.

Why your file is blanck? Why are you considering "sdcard" :confused:? What file did you edit?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] fps-dum:
When there will be a final release? =)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Sure, I am just flashing an "almost-final" release and if it works fine I will upload soon.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] linomaniac:
kalo, kalo, and what is your next goal after this rom becomes final?

(i pray for ICS) :D
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] nekmaria:
Very good version the beta 2, runs smoothly in my device without any problem
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
I am testing a new release without 3 files:

- GoogleBackupTransport.apk;

- GoogleFeedback.apk;

- GooglePartnerSetup.apk

Free memory at the first boot 872MB :rolleyes:

I am noticing that those 3 files are "not needed".

But in case they are needed everyone can download these files, they are inside the "Removed Applications" archive.

Yes, beta2 is working fine :) always "ready", no lags, good then! :)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] korekore1:
hey Kalo goodmorning!I have edited the build.prop many times,this time i was removing the last line for the boot animation.I think i know what messed up build.prop ,i installed an app called device spoofer or sth that said it could temporary modify build prop to trick market about the gameloft games (I was too lazy too manually edit it..!) So that is the app that created ''build.prop.original'' in the sd card.So not only it did not work,it cleared the whole build.prop!

Anyway i pasted the code back and everything is working now but with the issues that i wrote in my previous post.Anyway i will reinstall,it surely messed up something. 2.2 out soon?!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Ok korekore1,

v2.2 is almost complete and stable but I noticed a bug in MMS.apk.

When I open Messages and tap on menu softkey, then when I press on Settings, com.android.mms crashes....

This is due maybe because MMS.apk is written for Android 2.3.7.

I'm searching for MMS.apk Android 2.3.6. Could someone help me?

Regards
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Filatov.p:
Kalo, try get it from this rom

http://www.mediafire.com/?bf94ebqbyj8b6sv

I'd love to post this very file, but I'm at work and access to internet is limited.

BTW it is Android 2.3.5
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Thank you, but I would like to insert a clean/stock version of mms.apk into the ROM. Huawei customized MMS.apk...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] linomaniac:
olalá, so you're staying by gingerbread development?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] tasosmrs:
[HTML][/HTML]

Hello Kalo, using since yesterday your v2.2. I did the exact steps you mentioned but my mms.apk didn't crash. I reached the point where I attached a file (didn't send) but nothing happened.

Changes I have made to original rom :

1) Replaced stock phone.apk, contacts.apk, settings.apk with gkalenis' ones post #614

2) Enabled bootanimation by giving figure 0 (instead of deleting line)

At the beginning I decided to return to launcherpro but I had enough lags and launcher crashes so 20 minutes later I installed zeam launcher again.

Still having the same problem with latinime.apk (greek keyboard) post #646. If you can please include it in official release of 2.2.

Thank you in advance, hope I helped!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
Hi,

I finally found a full working MMS.apk (2.3.5 edition but it works).

For example who is able to change personal sms picture?

Now with 2.3.5 mms version I am able to do all in the messages settings.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] tasosmrs:
[HTML][/HTML]

Is there any chance of including greek in next version's keyboard?

And by the way what about the unlock theme you discussed with Filatov.p (#713)?
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
I don't have the greek keyboard...

About the lockscreen I leave the default one, I prefer to maintain a stock configuration for Gingerbread.
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] tasosmrs:
Can you do something with the one that sofoklas posted on #648? When I replace the keyboard becomes almost half of standard!
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
I'm sorry but I have not free time today!

I'm just focused on v2.2 (now at RC step, in upload).

I have to announce a great NEWS, I will use an example to explain a bug in sms/mms application.

kalo86 (me) shutdowns his device at 15:00.

User send one sms at 15:09.

kalo86 turns on his device at 17:10 and a notification in the bar advert me for a new sms, so I tap on the notification and read that I got an sms at 17:10.

This is wrong because User sent that sms at 15:09!

Finally, on B876_KALO_v2.2, there is the stock Android SMS/MMS application which allows you to set the "Timestamp".

Now I can finally read the right sending timestamp when I get every sms in delay.

This is the great and the main advantange because I replaced the stock Huawei Mms.apk.

I'm uploading the latest version in RC flag (Release candidate).

Please have a general test and enjoy you U8800 Pro like a new one!

Regards,

kalo86

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] kalo86:
People I would like to make a special ROM.

I need your help (total help) because all U8800 Pro are quite different.

The main difference is into the cmdline.

Please write here the content of the file /proc/cmdline or upload this file here.

The important thing that I need is only this particular line:

androidboot.localproppath=

For example I have noticed that if you flash the STEP3 of any Chinese firmware, this file will be modified in corrispondance of that line into:

androidboot.localproppath=unicom/cn

At the moment, since I never flashed STEP3 file (UPDATA.APP), I still have the stock cmdline configuration in:

androidboot.localproppath=vodafone/it

So, I need to know how many versions there are in the world and valutate if we need to flash the general (unbranded) STEP3 package with modify the cmdline into:

androidboot.localproppath=normal/ [and something other over the / ]

This could be great because a lot of system application can be moved to the /cust partition and we can enjoy a lot of free memory.

Now I am testing a personal edition which respects my cmdline prop path (cust/vodafone/it).

I moved lots of system application on /cust/vodafone/it/app and Android recognizes them in that directory like /system/app.

If you are Russian (please help me Filatov.p), your cmdline is different and you should have another path for the cust partition, for example:

"cust/something/ru".

Please write here that line so I can understand how many kinds of cust partition there are. If they are 3-4, I could upload 4 different versions of my ROM, but if they are 5-6 or more, I think it's necessary to flash the "normal" STEP3 and then flash my general/normal ROM.

Thank you for collaboration,

kalo86
