[HTC One X] shinigamikris:
I'm using Cm9.0.0-RCO-endeavoru-tripNRaver and kernal version 2.6.39.4-g86aa44d and everything is pretty much working except I have lost the use of cwm (can't boot into it), camera is buggy, can't get any Google apps to work, have even tried just installing the .APk for gplay. Just force closes, have no option to sync my Google account in mail, calendar, contacts and have tried flashing the gapps through cmd but has no affect... Other than that, I can make calls, send texts, browse the web . And wifi tether not working but that was mentioned anyway. Is there an updated version that fixes these problems? I love the rom though. Great aesthetics and functionality :)

I've found paranoidandroid the most fun to use and its capable of being a daily driver. Battery life is pretty good also.

+1.

Its nice to have a good looking rom not based on sense or cartoon characters.
[HTC One X] shinigamikris:
So everything works now except for the camera, force closes when taking a picture of a person, doesn't do it when taking "non people" pictures. Does the camera on trips cm9 work properly for anyone? Am using the 017 version.

can anyone out there help me with this problem.i bought an x8 as a second phone with the intention of using it for fitness training and gps. i have become very fond of this phone and have tried a few custom roms. ginger dx being a particular favourite.my problem is i cant seem to use ant+ as well as a custom rom, can anyone help.many thanks.

try HeroDroid rom...:D
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chris95X8:
Custom ROMs don't support ANT because devs don't have those devices so they can't test. But try MiniCM 2.

I think it supports ANT but it isn't tested.

Hello mates,

the topic says what im searching for.

I'm huge HTC fan, but I like the way how you can edit photos on Galaxy Note.

It is on every their commercials so, probably all of you know for what Im talking about.

So far i found only the program "SKITCH" which is similar and free but it will be great to have more "tools"

so if any1 of you know something similar or know where I can found the original Note app to use on our HOX, please share it with me. This will help me a lot with my work, instead of re-scratching on paper.

p.s. if I buy an "Spen" will it work on our phones ?

Thanks.

Hi! I have problem with one of the ROMs. When I installed ROM all's right, but when I wanna rebot phone my screen will become white. I waited 10-20 minutes and nothing. I want to install it: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1683607 . My previous ROM was CM 9.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] yackovsky:
so... what you have to do is this:

install miui v4 over cm7 or cm9 (must be booting normally)

wipe data/cache and dalvik cache AFTER installing

reboot

wait few minutes (5-6 tops) and you'll see boot animation
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] domcale:
White screen at boot is kinda normal, you just have to wait for it to pass. If it's there for more than 5~10mins, then look into problems!
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] qbagno:
What do you mean by normal booting? When I installed MIUI I turning on CWM holding power and home buttons.

I mean that your phone must be flashed properly, so it goes to homescreen :)

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k.p.:
First, I am not asking "What is or will be the best ROM for me" because I know the answer already (read, test drive, and choose for yourself).

My question is more: If you've come here from having one or more similar devices (like, say, the SG2), what were the more popular everyday ROMs or developers that you expect to be appearing here in the coming month(s)?

For example, if this were a HTCDesireIII forum, I'd be able to answer the question briefly

on the original Desire it seemed like the vast majority were using CM, Oxygen, LeeDroid, Gingervillain, or MIUI

or a bit longer

on the original Desire, according to a couple polls and my general impression from reading posts and sig-files, it seemed about 75% of the people were using CM (because it's CM), Oxygen (for the lack of bloat), MIUI (for the interface), Lee or Villain (for whatever their unique selling points) and the others never really took off in popularity for whatever reason (bugs, lack of updates, niche-interest).

I'm not averse to reading and test-driving, but I'd like to limit it to a few time-tested names first. So what are the names (ROMs or devs) to watch for based on the past?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcortinag:
I was expecting CheckROM EvoHD and now it's available! Best ROM I tried in SGSII and so far in SGSIII, WanamLite is pretty good also.

Hello everybody,

This is just a small guide I made for rooting ALCATEL OT-918 (Maybe also 918D or M) devices on which SuperOneClick fails. Most of the files are not by me so all credit goes to the original author...

Tutorial:

01) Unzip usb_driver.zip and install the drivers. (phone shall not be off an plugged in, thx dbask)

02) Copy the file Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip to the root of your SD card.

03) Make sure your battery is fully charged and turn off your phone.

04) Head to the directory SP_Flash_Tool_v2.1134.00 and start FlashTool.exe.

05) Make sure the menu Options->USB Mode is checked.

06) Use attached scatter file creator to make scatter. (or use Android_2.3.6_MT6573_Android_scatter_918.txt)

Warnings/Errors like this can be safely ignored:

[Warning Hint] Get BMT block count fail, default BMT block count is used!

[Hint] Bootloader files are lost when automatically loading by scatter file.

Please make sure you want to go through anyway.

DSP_BL is unchecked, which may result in a boot failure

07) Check the entry with name "RECOVERY" and double click it.

08) Select the recovery.img file and again make sure ONLY one entry is checked.

09) Click the Download button and plugin your phone with the USB cable.

* Wait some time (untill the recovery file is loaded to your phone) *

10) Unplug your phone and press the volume up and power button at once

11) Select "Flash Zip from SDCard" and choose the Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip

12) Confirm the update and reboot your phone. Everything should be done, phone is rooted!

Actual tutorial made by others. I only try to make it a bit more clear.

Screenshots:

FlashTool:

File selection:

Root verification:

ALCATEL Scatter Retriever v0.1

Just to make this thread a little development related: I coded a tool that should be able to automatically create scatter files for your (ALCATEL) device. It is only tested on my own device but it should work for other (ALCATEL) devices too (Sources can be posted if needed).

Screenshot:

Last words

The tools and files used to make this tutorial are not created by me. The FlashTool is made by MediaTek (the company that makes the ALCATEL devices), the recovery.img is made by somebody at 592zn, the USB Drivers are made by MediaTek/Alcatel (unsure).

I wish you all a very plesant day,

I am very grateful...It was successful in restoring but it doesn't boot...it shows the logo then goes to a blank screen.

By the way I have Alcatel OT-918(without D/M/N) running Android 2.3.6.

Is there something that I should do before of after the restore?

I have tried with wiping the cache/data/dalvik cache before restore & after .

I give it alot of time but it doesn't seem to boot.

Is it possible that you give me the data and cache files too.Please......that is if it is possible..

I thought those were images before you used your phone...it is okay.

And do you have any working custom rom for 2.3.6? Most of the available are for 2.3.5.

Though my problem is not solved...I have learn alot and that is exactly what I wanted when I joined xda.

FOTA

I've sucesfully rooted my phone. However, I can not longer update firmware over the air (FOTA). The new firmware is detected, downloaded and checked. It prompts for reboot to be applied, but after that I get into the recovery menu, and the firmware is not patched. A second reboot returns to normal operation (no endless boot to recovery menu, after all).

I think that the new firmware is a .zip downloaded to sdcard, but I'm afraid that if I apply it from the recovery console the phone will brick.

make a backup on H kitty(to all partitions), copy on pasadena sdcard and restore it

in this way you will have H kitty rom on pasadena

you can restore it piece by piece with *advanced restore*

if both have the same kernel you can restore only system and data

i dont know very well this phone, i rooted it for a friend

on other phones this work good

you do this on your RISC

ps. before restoring make a *wipe data factory reset
