Like Arnold said, I'll be back. Tomorrow.

I have two exams this week and after they are done I'll continue developing more often since I have more time.

Initial feedback seems good, stable and fast seems to be the response. It's funny though, compiling without actually seeing it (except for Brojan155's cams).
[Desire Android Development] tuxy81:
Good luck for the exams!

I'm a student too, then i know what's mean:)
[Desire Android Development] MidnightDevil:
Good luck with your exams, your rom is behaving great so far :D
[Desire Android Development] YoUnEs DeX:
Good luck with your exams ;)
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Thank you guys! Hopefully I'll succeed with these exams :-)

Bojan155 has now added screenshots to further assist with the installation.

Spierbal has now added screenshots on how the ROM looks.

All of these changes are available at my website. Thank you for the images guys!

ps. I am coding a new bug tracker, will take a while though - quite busy as you might have figured out by now.
[Desire Android Development] Bojan155:
Getting pretty decent battery life, even on conservative. :)
[Desire Android Development] :
is this rom lite er than the slim roms?

http://www.slimroms.com/

how does this compare to the slim roms?

your rom maybe more stable i think.
[Desire Android Development] kouske:
Slimroms are for Samsung galaxy and for its variants and has no connection whatsoever to nikezs rom. Btw the slim rom is super stable and from my experience has no issues at all.
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
As he said below, slimroms are for Samsung devices. This is only for Desire. I think I have accomplished a pretty stable enviroment. As I dont see any complaints. Please correct me if I am wrong - I can't test it myself.
[Desire Android Development] gie62001:
hi Nikez,

just wanted to finalise your chipin campaign as it looked bad missing that little, here last bit:

Your transaction ID for this payment is: 2NH22325HJ884771X

even if i dont use this rom i hope at least Deasire community will appreciate your work (as very few devs left here).
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Wow. Thank you very much! That's it folks, the chip in is completed. Going to search for a cheap phone on "the Swedish ebay". I'll add some of my own cash aswell (this was my plan from the very beginning but I did not say anything since some people were against me using my own cash), as I learn huge amounts of stuff by doing this.

Thank you guys. Everyone.
[Desire Android Development] :
I couldn't agree more. This looks like a very stable product! Hence the reference to the SlimRoms. :-) I'll be flashing my desire too soon! cheers!
[Desire Android Development] tuxy81:
That's true!With conservative governor i haven't any problem, and a great battery life!
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Two more days guys, then Im back at full force! I am going to meet up a guy tomorrow after the exam so I can the new (old) Desire.

sweeeet! :)
[HTC Sensation] M.leonard2:
Is there more than one model of the sensation how do I know which one I have
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
Yes you have the Sensation, Sensation XE with beats audio, and Sensation 4G. The Sensation 4G is the T-Mo e US version. I see you live in the US so this is probably the one you have. But it is w chance you have the Sensation XE. The hardware is the same on each device though.
[HTC Sensation] M.leonard2:
I have the sensation 4g with beats audio is it just an equalizer or are the speakers different or could it be the Rom I'm using Leedroid 7.*.* sorry for all the question just trying to get the info I didn't see
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
Hi I have the sensation 4g when I switched roms it turned to the sensation z710e
[HTC Sensation] T-Macgnolia:
The Beats audio is just a equalizer for the device and yes you have it because you are using Leedroid. When the Sensation XE with Beats audio was released. A dev ripped the Beats audio from it and made it a flashable .zip. plus chefs put it in thier ROMs now too. Like I said all versions of the Sensation, except the Sensation XL, are the same device just different names and sold by different carriers. The Sensation is a completely different device.
[HTC Sensation] M.leonard2:
Thanks for the understanding
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] shdybrady:
First off I will start off that I am new but I did try searching this forum and google as well. Everytime I download something either from a torrent or something from the internet, it says open file failed. Here recently i was tring to download some movies and I tried downloading bit torrent but I cant even open up the bit torrent to help me download other things. Has anyone ran into this yet?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] pileot:
open file failed could mean several things.

First, it could mean you dont have an application installed that is taking control of that filetype, the prime has no idea what applicaiton to open that file with.

The second is the file is corrupted and unreadable

Third it could be in use by something else and read protected

It could be several other things but unfortunately you have given us very little to go on.

What files specifically are you trying to open? .torrent files would need a torrent downloader capable of opening these files. Movies should easially open with the stock video player or MX player is what i use. If you are trying to install a .exe file you need to do some reading on differences between android and windows.

Hopefully this helps.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InTheater:
Hello all,

let me present my self as a beginner in the world of Android.

It has come an Star A3 to my hands, with Android 4.0 and among all great things of IceCream, few Chinese apps I want to get rid of

the phone is rooted (well, one headache less)

I have flash the recovery 592zn.com_recovery_Star_A3_MT6573.img with Mobileuncle tools (included in the mobile originally) and done a Boot/System/Data/Cache Nandroid backup

Apps I want to eliminate :

Baidu input (and add the standard input keyboard)

own Chinese launcher (I have already install LauncherPro, but I would love to get rid of the Chinese one completely)

UC xxxxx (some Chinese browser)

Root Explorer (Chinese version, to be able to install the English one)

ICS 4.0 (also Chinese version)

a Chinese flash-light

a Chinese dark/light switch screen

a Chinese version of the configuration menu

so, basically to keep a clean Android

so, where I have to look for help on how to do that ??

what short of help / tutorial am I looking for ?

I have installed:

http://www.ltr-data.se/opencode.html/#ImDisk

to be able to mount the nandroid img files in windows7-x64

but I can't see anything, it ask me to format the unit (?)

similar with Daemon Tools .

any help will be greatly appreciated.

thanks in advance.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SifJar:
My advice since you're rooted is install Titanium Backup and use it to uninstall everything you don't want. It's a root app that can get rid of virtually anything.

Seeing as you have a nandroid backup, in the unlikely case that the device won't boot at all without one or more of those apps, you can just restore the backup you have.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InTheater:
Beautiful, it works like a charm !!

I have been able to get rid off all Chinese stuff

thanks

Star A3 for dummies

Hello

Ok I have searched for hours (as the video asked) and I cannot find an "android for dummies" guide. I dont know what a "root" is or what "titanium" is... so I may have found the correct forum - but I just don't understand it.

So the problem is this:

I bought a touch screen DualSim Android 2.3 GPS 3G MTK6573 Phone Star A3.

It arrived today BUT it has some chinese programmes on it (that I would like to clear) and I cannot seem to download any additional apps for it.

google.play wont work (apparently it doesnt support the device)

It has a few basic apps - but nothing wild or that I guess can't be re-downloaded again.

What would you recommend I do - do I wipe it and install something new or what. and if so please can someone explain it to me in small "for dummy" steps

I am not sure what else I need to tell you to give you abetter pic, but ideally I'd like this phone to work on the google apps system (or can you point me to where I can get similar apps)

On the "about phone" the

android version is 2.3.5

Kernel version is 2.6.35.7

I would really appreciate any help you can give me

Thanks
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SifJar:
My first advice would be to try and achieve root on the phone. This should be relatively easy on a Chinese phone, most don't have great security.

Basically, "root" means to get increased permissions on the phone. There are certain files and actions on the phone that normally you can't do. With root, you can. Think of it as somewhat like logging into a computer as an Administrator rather than a standard user.

"getting root" basically means installing a hack to let apps on your phone do more than they could otherwise e.g. uninstall preinstalled apps.

To "root" your phone, you can use a tool like SuperOneClick or UnlockRoot. For both, you follow a few instructions, plug in your phone and click "Root" in the program, it'll work out the best way to do it for your phone and do it.

Once that is all done, there is a guide here for getting Google Apps (e.g. Play Store) working on unsupported devices: https://senk9.wordpress.com/2010/12...ogle-apps-gapps-on-your-android-device-phone/

Once you get Play Store working, Titanium Backup is an app you can install from there. Using root, it can uninstall any app you want.

Be careful with all this, if you're not you could break your phone.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tpsuperstar:
educated dummy

Thank you so much! - and such a fast reply too!!!

I really apprecate your patience in explaining this all to me.

It sounds relatively straight forward - I will have a look at those progs and link you suggest tomorrow.

Obviously I dont want to break the phone either, then it would be more useless then it is already ;)

Fingers crossed - will let you know how I get on.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kegnkiwi:
Hi all,

Watched the video so I thought I would tag onto this thread instead of starting a new one.

Just bought a cheap star a3 dual sim android phone. This my foray into android phones and I am having some weird issues. Just a first note I have just rooted the phone but these issues where here before and after rooting. The A3 is a htc sensation clone i believe when my other half who has a htc desire tries to call the phone the phone goes straight into answer phone and rejects the call, she is on giff gaff in the uk and i have tried both a 3 network and orange sim and it happens on both. There is some weird chinese security software that I trying get remove but its seems very stubbon. Anyone any ideas. Ps battery life is awfull i only seem to get 6 hours from full to dead without hardly any use. Maybe I have loads running but unsure what I need to keep running.

Please help.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flamebo:
I have the star a3

Google play works perfectly. If you PM me, I am happy to send you the apk file for google play.

since you are rooted, I strongly suggest you get root explorer installed so you can go through and remove all the chinese apps.

Make sure you remove "himarket" its a big battery hog.

To the person who says their calls go straight to voicemail, remember this is a dual sim dual *standby* if you are using 2g or 3g cell data on one sim then the other sim cannot make or receive calls.

Also, there is no ICS for the Star A3, its just a skin on top of Gingerbread to make it look like ICS, if you go to settings, about phone and look, the version number will be 2.3.4 or 2.3.5 which means its gingerbread (if you really do have 4.0.1 ICS I would love to get a copy of the ROM for it!)

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] pathaniya:
Family and friends, I hereby recommend with full faith that this ROM is super stable and fast. I have tried all the ROMs available here for a "locked boatloader"

Even though am not a very heavy user but the battery back up is super.

Both Xloud and Xbravia are installed, which is great.

There are only two extra services running one is 'secure clock servicve' and 'Setup guide'. If anyone could tell me how to stop them forever.

The fonts on the rom are sleek. The reboot function is available/in-built too in the Power menu.

The only thing i miss is numbered battery icon, like in MIUI.

Rest is all fantastic. I highly recommend this. Good work, am loving it.

Thanks and Regards.

Oh Btw, am on stock Sony Kernel. Will try DOOMs.

Though there are some things needed such as a music widget(really needed) and digital clock widget (not really needed).
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] stanzzzzz:
Awesome rom, fast and stable, no FC at all. music widget would be a good thing to add as someone said earlier. Also the best battery life for sure by far. I was on fera ROM(great rom as well, i was just not getting enough juice from my battery) tried your ROM, extremely happy with battery life, i do use it for game like robo defense and listing to music while i am on tram, have not switched off any dat thing and still getting a day or so battery life. really happy. i added EDT tweak from TEAM rom, added some other apps to my liking and its a really good rom. will definitely recommend ppl to use it. This is a Clean, Simple, Stable, and fast ROM for sure.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] NS_85:
It's super fast and stable. Thanks a lot.

PS: It works on locked bootloader but it gives errors with overclocked doomkernel. No overclock no problem ;)

A funny surpise

Just now I wanted to switch from this rom to DonutHD found an interesting result

Wiped all data, cache and dalvik and did a little mistake by flashing the Original XperiaS update-5/4 (DonutHD)

without flashing the DonutHD rom first.

and then reboot the phone (without notice I didnt flash the DonutHD rom), found that everything work perfectly

and still maintain 180+mb free ram.

It was like this MyFirstRom been goes through major facelift change to XperiaS theme with additional missing widget

that "someone" been asking (music, weather, power control, etc)

@hahayouaredead, not meant to be offend, you make a very nice rom but I think it looks way better than the original theme

because the font in your rom look way more horrible than original stock 2.3 on my device

not sure if this can be reproduce on other X10 as well.
