Only hope for kernal

cm7 will defiantly change our phone. we need it badly. hope some one will port it.

i tried it but failed i think its difficult because

1.there are very few phones with msm 7627a chipset

2.Its dual sim phone.

so far according to me

only hope is samsung galaxy s duos

. for compiling kernel for ICS

(before someone tells me that its 7227 , I know it is. and 7227 ROM can boot on our phn CONFIRMED BY:mahfoozceecy. as there is tiny difference in both chipset something that we can overcome IF WE HAVE BASEBAND AND DRIVER FILES)

hope so we can use its kernel in some way.

if anyone can

http://opensource.samsung.com/

look for s7562

(but still i think its quite hopeless :( )
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mahfoozceecy:
We can't port any ics roms because

1) need new baseband files(only ktouch can help us in this)

2) need a, boot.img with display drivers and many other drivers(again only ktouch can help us).

Spice ics Rom works great on our device.but no network coz it need new baseband files and colors are washed out coz spice's boot.img doesn't come with our device's display drivers.

Coming to gingerbread,I have booted Huawei gr300(don't remember the exact name, it's an msm 7227a device) on our a9.No Wi-Fi, no Bluetooth, no signal.Again baseband problems.

Cm7 is a bit different from normal gingerbread.I never got any luck with it till now.You need a custom compiled cm kernel in order to cm7 boot.

So conclusion, nothing can be done without kernel sources.we cannot simply use some other devices kernel and, compile it for ours.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prratha93:
now more bad new zeyaan told that cm7 is not available for dual sim. :crying:

---------- Post added at 05:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:51 AM ----------

THINGS TO CHECK WHILE BUYING:

Buy device from companies who release their kernel source( strict NO NO TO Karbonn and Micromax)

No dual sim phone.

check for support from cm or aokp community.( still no cm for galaxy ace plus)

---------- Post added at 06:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:59 AM ----------

i dont have much knowledge abt android working but drivers released by qualcomm for adreno 200 should work on our device right??

i mean we can use them to replace it with mi425's in boot.img (just a theory)

again for baseband there isnt much we can do until sources are released.

correct me am wrong (obviously i am else some one would have come up with solution :p)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mahfoozceecy:
No that's hardware acceleration drivers. ie Gpu drivers.I was talking about our screen driver which is inside boot.img zimage :)

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] vishwasnp:
The download from those Chinese sites has failed many times, so I could not.will try this evening again
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mahfoozceecy:
If you guys are interested in bricking your device then go ahead and flash w710 ics :D

Baseband flashing is dangerous, so be careful.

W710 gb should work on our device.Replace the boot.img of w710 with karbonn a9.But the Rom ui and apps are same as w680.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prratha93:
the rom i shared was gb but its of 680 only :p

so insted of flashing all files what if we flash just the system.img. i don't think that will hurt :p (but i think neither it Will even boot :p)

(for gb rom)just if some one tried it. it will be great if they post quadrant and antu tu scores so that we can come to know if its really better or not.

---------- Post added at 02:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:19 PM ----------

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mahfoozceecy:

Slighty Modified Fanta9stic ROM

Qaudrant Score - 1507

Antutu Score - 3160

Karbonn A9 - Fanta9stic ROM.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mahfoozceecy:
Give me the link.is it a new official Rom or a custom Rom?

Anyway if you are looking for better benchmark scores it mainly depends on the kernel(overclocking),every boot.img is clocked at 1ghz so don't expect much big difference.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] vishwasnp:
Sorry for the dumb question. But it's it possible to combine the ICS Rom of spice MI425 with the boot.img of our A9 ? And try out

I know seems like a super noob question but poochane main kya jaata hain :D
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mahfoozceecy:
Good question :) .inside boot.img there are two files namely ram disk and zimage.zimage is the kernel.The current kernel we have of A9 ,it's incompatible with the Ics builds.

I think karbonn is just delaying the ics update purposefully, so that their newly released ics devices get more sales.K-touch, on the other hand updated low end w619 and high end (in terms of screen sizes ;) ) w710 to ics.Both have same internal specs. No update for w680 and w688 yet.I don't know why, is it because they consider these 2 as aliyunos devices? God knows.

If users find those two threads better than this, they have their choice I will shut down this thread and close A5 & A7 ROM development.

Thank you for your support.

who use front cam any way :p 3G is way too costly :p
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
Its not who uses front cam, its if it is there it must work.

Skype calling can be done via back cam also, but how can one see and talk at the same time?

Most Airtel, Vodafone users have 3G so one cant ignore the front cam

It is a as important as the back cam now.

To make a note: A9 was the first low price high range mobile to have a front and back cam with 3G.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mahfoozceecy:
The A9 rom thread mentioned, is a useful one since it lists all custom roms with screenshots.(it's not a copy paste of this thread) And that Rom thread was started because there was no other thread listing roms for A9 I guess.you were away .I wonder why you didn't add custom Rom info on this thread earlier ! You asked my permission to add my Rom to this long time ago, but you never did.!!.

All General things about karbonn a9 are posted here only. :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
I have kept it together here as it helps in many ways.

So

I remember I took your permission but I also added your custom ROM on 1st post, it didnt get updated well as bad connection on my end.

I saw your individual thread and it was helpful as it was related to your ROM and issues related it.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] mahfoozceecy:
This problem is seen in one particular Rom, so bugs related to that should be posted in that custom Rom thread. This is a general thread.

Those who are interested and can't live without front cam can install the stock camera.or they can go and use some other Rom with front cam working "awesome' stock camera :)

Actually it was edited as soon as issue occurred. all rom links (at the time of cleanup) were new to xda. wp7 rom, performance rom, Strom rom , etc but seems mod CLEANED IT UP. i think 5-6 roms were there(in case of a7).

one more thing i have seen that many times users request go unnoticed with next posts in general discussion.

one such user of a7+ even approched me.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] prasad12ka4:
Spice mi410 launch price was 13k.

It was single Sim

It had HDMI port

It was not in the range of A9.

End of discussion here.

No one needs to Judge my understanding.

If it wasnt for me no one had taken a stand for local Indian Handsets.

So kindly dont go off topic.

To keep it in one thread serves one single purpose -- "Issues related to this handset remain here"

Were as every ROM has its own thread.

I have mentioned the thread in the 1st post important links section.

So if anyone wants argument, better dont do it here. PM me.
