I also tried it earlier this year, and since then the only problem that is gone is the flickering.

But we have a source for our eclair kernel, and the buggy ics kernel. Shouldn't be impossible :)

I'm 99% sure the msm7225 doesn't have a gpu, but I don't see the problem. You can do anything without a gpu, but it will be slower. (I think the most 3rd party players use the cpu to decode other video formats that the gpu isn't supporting). I'm sure we are decoding our videos and playing our games with the cpu. That's also the reason why we have the old OpenGL (I think it's 1.0).

If I remember correctly, the msm7227 is a msm7225 with gpu and a slightly higher clock speed.

About jellybean:

I'm pretty exited to try that out once we have the source. It shouldn't be to hard to get it running as good as the ICS roms, as there aren't so many differences.

Project Butter could also maybe smoothen thing up a bit, but I'm not so sure about that (the gpu again)

Another question, do we have the source for the gb-kernel, or where did that came from? Some other huawei u8xxx-rom?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] TuoNonno:
Great work NAZ :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] NAZUnlimited:
Tx, TuoNonno, but none of this would be possible without ur great work too.

I was sorry to read what happened to u but i am glad that u made it back to the tracks.

@Silas

Yes, it shouldnt be impossible to build a ics kernel, not when we have access to the sources. That's one of the reasons why i want to take some time to learn kernel dev.

i said it before, the first kernel i (a complete noob in that field) build for vicky using the huawei froyo sources, was fast, it toke around 20/30 seconds from the time one press the power button to boot to the keyguard screen. It could be set to 748 but it had major problems:

- calibrations methods - it was forcing screen auto calibration but one time the display wont work, another it was miscalibrated and other it was working fine. All that in the same session (between power on and off), real pain in the @ss

- no freezes due to higger frequencies but lots of random reboots even in lower frequencies (-600)

- heavy heating - real major problem, the devs i asked to check the code couldnt see why that was happening

- no deep sleep

- the most important problem, heavy battery drain. a full charge was spent in less than 2hours

That and other issues made me not build another kernel until i have learned the how to's.

That is when i decided to port adrenalin kernel to use in vicky (v1.4). (The kernel is one of the three things i ported from adrenalin, the others are the calibration app and the pixelflinger lib, dahhh, it was 1.4 instead of 1.3 like the cm sources. tx for that, TuoNonno)

our current working kernel, its from TuoNonno work, it think he said a few days ago that it (Adrenalin) doesnt have sources, but maybe he can tell us who built the kernel
[Miscellaneous Android Development] TuoNonno:
The only thing I know about that kernel is that it is the one from huawei ascend m860, the name is " Kernel- 2.6.29-perf Icarus@chaos" and was compiled by Isaacj87

I've found it into the ascend cm 7.2 rom...

EDIT:

Found the sources:

http://www.prepaidandroid.org/index.php?title=CM7-Ascend

isaacj87's original 748Mhz oc kernel: update-kernel-2.6.29-chaosOC_748-signed.zip

now it's up to you :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] NAZUnlimited:
tx for the info, TuoNonno

with a bit of luck, i can start looking for differences between the 4 kernels (huawei's eclair and froyo, this kernel and the buggy ics - lol, good one, silas) right after this weekend

btw, anyone have a working link to the "kernel tools" aka boot.img scripts (splitter, joiner, etc)? i had those files but i lost them with a bad update from 9.10 to 12.04 and most of the download links i found, send me to megaupload or to non-existent webpages.

i want to take a look at u88xx kernel too and since huawei didnt release the sources of that one, i need to disassemble the kernel

Hi NAZ !

have you stopped to dev this rom ?

Thanks :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] NAZUnlimited:
no. just taking a time off because of some personal issues.

(trying to figure out the kernel dev 1.0.1. in the meanwhile)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] znelis:
I thought i just put this tip here :)

The phone runs a bit better and faster if you turn OFF adblock (which is included in this rom). I know it sounds strange, but it seems like adblock increases the CPU usage.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] NAZUnlimited:
this oldie has my respect.

it suffered hell on my hands :laugh:, done things to it that i wont do to my other phones ;)

it may be a poor phone but it is the first to surprise me a lot, contrary to other more powerfull phones

edit: new version is going to be delayed for at least a week, not because all the inserted stuff isnt working perfectly (it's working great, in fact) but because i had a few ideas (mostly kernel, leds and framework stuff) i want to test before i release this version. if those ideas are possible and dont present problems, then this next version will have those included.

@NAZUnlimited: is the dev project dead or? :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] NAZUnlimited:
No, not dead, i am just taking some time to rebuild the source in a new laptop (my bad, forgot to mention that).

to keep a long story short, two months ago, a jerk crashed against the back of my parked car. for my really bad luck, that day, i had left the laptop in the trunck while i was at the bar with some friends. the hard drive was the only thing in one piece but completly useless since the "needle" scratched the "disc" inside.

the guy's car insurance company paid for all the damages but the rom sources and some work related stuff were lost forever. but not all is that awfull. when vicky was v1.9.8, i was using other laptop, one i had later given to my girlfriend, lucky for me, she didnt deleted the sources folder so i had not to start from zero. but it is still taking some time to make those sources to become the same sources i used to have.

in the meanwhile, i had found the source for a 800mhz kernel from the same creator of the kernel we use in the u8300. it works and is stable but it only has one problem, its performance is the worst i've ever seen (that fact is mentioned by its creator but i wasnt expecting something like that). a friend is taking a look to see if there is something that can be done to correct that.

if i have some time this week, maybe i can upload the vicky v2.5 i was working before the crash (a flashable zip is still on the u8300's sdcard), just have to remove some apps that were needed to test the rom.

btw, i have another toy for my collection, an Huawei Ascend Y201 Pro (u8666E-1). for a bugdet phone it is not bad at all, i really liked it :D. it comes with ics 4.0.3, a 3.0.8-perf kernel (800mhz), arm v7, adreno 203, a 4gb internal sd-card, 512 mb ram, (i cant tell right now how much for data and system, its still unrooted for the lack of time), a performance on the new antutu benchmark app of over 3890 without sd-card tests (for a budget phone that is great). it surprised me too, to have an ics version of Huawei Emotion UI. (oh, there is already a root/cwm recovery tutorial for it, a 1,3ghz kernel, a custom stock rom and other dev is working on a jb rom. :highfive:)

on the downside, i tried the samsung galaxy s3 before i bought the y201 pro, it was a deception :crying:. for a really expensive phone (almost 700€ here), it could do better. there is an video on youtube that cover some of the things i noticed and others mentioned by some guys.

ok, that is all for now.

i wish u all, happy landings in 2013

Re: [ROM] [Huawei U8300] Vicky for Huawei Ideos Chat - updated 2012/jun/2

I'll leave links here, later i'll update main post

http://db.tt/qEDL8el9 -> Vicky 2.5.4

http://db.tt/1jCxRNZW -> keyboard patch for the ones who want onscreen keyboard

http://db.tt/GWGwX506 -> SuperSU 1.04

http://db.tt/UCUS6F6P -> latest gapps

http://db.tt/PkMwUvIl -> swap installer

Flash as usual, fix permissions and reboot.

To use swap its required a 3rd partition in sdcard with swap file system, if u dont have it, dont flash the swap installer.

Btw, u'll need between 30 to 40mb free on ur sdcard for the files that will be put in it -> required

Temp. Whats new

- Random bootanimation support without using apps

- tweaked

- Modded kernel with hwuserdata support

- updated apps

- Some surprises

- Replaced stock mms app with Huawei SMS/MMS app

- Huawei file explorer

- Latest huawei gb launcher

- Swap support

- fixed problems related with changing phone settings while/after Wi-Fi was on (ex. toggles getting stuck)

- fixed layouts

- themes added

- stock dalvik cache bypassed to cache partition to grant extra space in data partition. new apps dalvik cache will be placed on data as usual

- Downloads cache moved to /obb (bigger partition and dont require cleanning)

- Stuff i cant recall now

advice for a perfect install/config

- 1st boot - before calibrating screen wait till holo locker locks screen, then unlock, give a few seconds, then calibrate, this way u'll avoid the restarting of the calibration app. if, cant reach the unlock button, rotate phone

- 3rd boot - Give a minute before entering pin because file system is being changed (dalvik cache is being recreated on cache partition and if the OS is loading apps, the dalvik wont be perfectly moved)

p.s. u can disable the holo locker when u want to

Re: [ROM] [Huawei U8300] Vicky for Huawei Ideos Chat - updated 2012/jun/2

Btw, i found these ones in my u8500

They are from the 1st bootable jb rom made around the time i said i was going to start testing jb (installer was still on u8300's sdcard)

It wasnt fully working.

What didnt work:

- rild

- sdcard mount/access (sdcard dismounted after unlock screen and cant be mounted anymore)

- Wi-Fi

- Alt, shift keys options on keyboard

- Graphics, videos

- rotation sensors

But even with all those problems, it was good to know the phone didnt lag and that the current kernel is a good start for a jb rom.

But i am trying to upgrade the kernel to .35 and it may take some time before u can see a stable jb rom, because as u know, all my current sources were lost along with my previous laptop, so most of the work will start from scratch :banghead: and since i only release stable and +90% working roms, it will take longer.

i am starting to think that i'll need to put some mirrors for download :cool:

fun fact:

- the u8300 doesn't have a gpu, so don't expect a correct bechmark test/result using the current benchmark apps, almost all of them do the opengles 2 test and it is only working on phones with an hardware graphics chip. to do a allmost accurate test use the 2nd or 3rd version back of antutu BenchMark

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GrampaBear:
Hello Folks!

I guess my question will make me sound dumber than a box of rocks, but here goes. A bit of history before I make myself an idiot. I've only been fooling with computers and these new tech. machines for about a year and a half now and for the most part been having an enjoyable time. I'm 70 years old and I'm not the sharpest crayon in the box anymore, time has dulled my tip a bit. I've been given a Nook Tablet as a Christmas gift by 2 of my grandsons, I intend to change the Android on it to the Ice Cream version but before I do I want to practice on something else first. So I bought a used Nook Color from a lady at church for $50 and I want to try and make a SD card to run the new Android from. The reason I want to use SD card is that there are over 200 books on the Nook and I would like to eventually read a lot of them. I guess I'm just greedy.

I've spent most of the weekend reading this forum information, but unfortunately the more I read the more confused I get. There is a tremendous amount of information to try and digest here and sometimes some of it seems to contradict itself. What are the different types of modified Androids that can be used? Can the Andriod that is installed on the SD card be modified so that more applications can be stored on it? How difficult is it to install the software that allows you to speed up the Nooks processor, that is, can a raw noob do it?

I'm sorry if I've yacked too much. I'm still learning how to correctly ask the questions.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
Hey, knock off the old man stuff. I am 67 and my crayon tip is still sharp (although there are some here that would disagree with that, LOL). This nook color stuff is not that hard. I would recommend putting cm7 on sd first to get your feet wet. Then if you feel like experimenting move on to cm9. You can get the rom at cyanogenmod.com (for the encore - Nook Color). I recommend 7.2 RC3. It comes already rooted and overclocked so you can speed it up. And it has plenty of room for apps if you put it on a 4Gb card or larger. If you can afford it, I recommend 16GB (and Sandisk, class 4). Follow this guide to set it up:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=12240928

But look at my tips thread linked in my signature to get an updated image to use instead of the one in the thread above. Also read all of section B in my tips, as it all applies to the sd installation. If you need more help, just come back here.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shumash:
And in keeping with the older guy thread concept (66), you're talking about two different devices, the Nook Tablet (NT) and the Nook Color (NC). The newer NT is much more difficult to deal with than the older NC. It's not as straightforward to install anything on the NT as it is for the NC. Also try to differentiate between the device hardware and the operating system software. The software will get the most out of a particular devices' hardware. The NC's processor is single core; the NT is dual core. The Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS) Android operating system applications are pretty much the same between the two devices, but the operating system interface between the applications and the hardware (the kernel) is different, so overclocking, over/undervolting, etc. will be different, too.

Just keep reading; that's how to sharpen the tip. It's never permanently dull until everything else is.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
You're right of course. I was talking about how to update his NC. I also have an NT and it is much more difficult to deal with on modding.

Actually, after playing with the rooted 1.4.2 stock NT, I see no reason to move to CM yet on it (BT is the only thing missing on stock), even though I have CM7/CM9 on dual boot SD. After CM gets more stable on the NT, maybe.

Old age

Gentlemen,

Thanks for the replies. I don't feel old most of the time, just when I have some of the youngsters whizzing past me. Computers, smart cell phones, and Nooks are fairly new to me, never touched one until after my wife passed a year and a half ago. Now I need one to keep in touch with my family (4 kids, 12 grandkids(and 3 more on the way), and 4 greatgrand kids (and 2 more coming).

Due to a accident last fall the old brain sometimes has a bit of a hard time comprehending things now and then, so I get a bit frustrated and I may ask questions that seem to be a repeat. Hope you all can forgive that.

Well, I started the process of making an SD card with Android on it. I am now thoroughly convinced I am near as dumb as a box of rocks. I download the agnostic sd card image and the win32imager. I didn't realise I needed to uncompress the files ( this was a first for me, never had to do it before ). I finally figured out I needed WinZip and I downloaded the trial version and ran the program. I took a old Kingston 4 GB class4 micro sd card (I have ordered a Sandisk from newegg but didn't want to wait to try) and formatted it to fat32 with a sd formatting program. I then ran Winimage (with my fingers crossed for I was not sure of what I was doing) and I think I have the image on the sd card, at least when I look at the card it windows it says boot on the sd icon. I went to the site where the C7 images are kept, but could not get one to download ( this was around 11 pm last night ). One problem I have is that I have no idea what I'm looking for when I pick a file. Could you tell me which one I should be using? It says I should write the image to the card, put the card in the nook and boot it. OK! I'll give that a shot, but how exactly do I get the Nook to boot off the sd card and how exactly does the Nook know what to do with the program? Will this mess up the Nook and the programs on it?

I knew that this would be a project, but after 12 hours of reading and trying I've become a bit frustrated. Maybe someone would take on a project and write a forum called The Big Dummy's Guide to Installing CM7 to a SD card and do a step by step instruction that tells us dummys what we should be seeing as we do this.:o
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leapinlar:
Funny you should ask about the dummies guide to SD installs. Taosaur just gave me a link to his here:

http://taosaur.blogspot.com/2011/09/running-cyanogenmod-7-from-sd-nook.html

He gives links for the CM7 files. Pick the CM 7.2 RC3.

Once you get the SD set up right and the CM zip on it, just put in your nook and boot. Everything is automatic and does not harm your stock install at all.
