ozadroid's or mine? I just saw that he posted one at the same time as me. If you used mine did it replace TWRP with the stock recovery as well?
[Android General] mohanjackie:
I used ozordadios.
[Android General] Ozadroid:
Yes it will flash whatever recovery.img is on there ur zip.
[Android General] mohanjackie:
Flashed trmp working perfectly. And installed custom from v1.3
[Android General] st10user:
From beginning of this problem i have a doubt in my head that is "I done something wrong with my boot-loader". This is what i done blindly with android partition manager! This is the cause of boot loop. Now im not with pc. I hope soon i will recover from this boot-loop by your st10 factory reset zip file.
[Android General] Ozadroid:
i would suggest not to fiddle with bootloader. just flash boot.img and you'll be good to go.
[Android General] st10user:
@fuser-invent

The factory reset zip file worked for me. Now I'm in your custom ROM. Its very fast than original os.

Can I revert from custom to original or original to custom? Plz tell me how can I do that. I'm new to android.

Thank you very much for your help.

@ozadroid

Thanks for your help.
[Android General] fuser-invent:
If you didn't made a nandroid backup of the original ROM with TWRP then you can't go back to it because there is no official firmware release. I do think some people might have posted their TWRP backups though, so if they are still available somewhere in this thread then you could download those and restore them in TWRP. You can also flash the Stock+ ROM I made from the Stock Recovery (not TWRP) and be very close the having the original stock firmware back.
[Android General] st10user:
OK brother.

Now everything fine with me.

Thank you very much.

St8 custom rom1.3 needs to calibrate accelerometer. G- sensor games like temple run and highway rider not working it shakes soo much.
[Android General] fuser-invent:
You might have messed it up when you overwrote the boot.img with the recovery.img. If it looks like this in your build.prop and still doesn't work, then you will need to figure out how to recalibrate it:

#set to 0 temporarily so touch works without other changes
ro.sf.hwrotation=270
#0~7 You are required to get the correct install direction according the sensor placement on target board
ro.sf.gsensorposition=0
ro.sf.ecompassposition=4
allow_all_orientations=1

I don't know much about this but it has been a problem on the Ainol Hero for some people in the past, this is from the Hero threads:

Although I have provided a g-sensor fixing zip for some Hero's, a small hand-full of Hero users have needed alternative methods to change re-calibrate their g-sensors. Check the links in this post and the apk in this post. Both were submitted by maxmax316. Also LexaR has posted a BMA Calibration app found in this post.

I don't know if you have a BMA sensor though, so you will have to research a way to find out if you do or not and figure out how to use these methods yourself.

@fuser-invent some time ago you had given me a easy way to flash and make easily system ,recovery and boot .IMG by using android partition manager but today after I downloaded it my antivirus detected it as a trojan horse plankton l type virus here is a link of what it is.

Do you know any alternative apps :crying:
[Android General] mesarvagya:
Please Help me

Firstly i am very sorry for asking the question about games in st8 in this thread as there is separate thread (No reply from there :crying: ). I installed real football 2013 from playstore and when opening the game it goes from gameloft logo to real football screen and back to gameloft logo and quits itself. Then the game quits from gameloft logo everytime i open it. My question is that Is my native OS in ST8 not supporting the game or should i flash fuser's ROM which had stated comaptibility for gameloft games. How can i solve this problem. Please someone help.
[Android General] fuser-invent:
@ anandisrocking007 - That wasn't me, ozadroid recommended android partition manager and I do not. I either use TWRP to make a nandroid backup or use ADB to pull whatever I need.

@ mesarvagya - That is the Gameloft license loop, simply it is Gameloft's fault and not necessarily the stock ROM. I can test games but the fix in my Custom ROM should cover all Gameloft games with that problem as long as you are downloading them legally from the play store. You'll have to delete it and all it's data and re-download it if you switch over to the Custom ROM. The only alternative would be to learn how to decompile the necessary files and edit the smali code yourself.
[Android General] anandisrocking007:
Sorry but anyway be care full to anyone using that phone it contains a trojan:rolleyes:

@ mesarvagya - That is the Gameloft license loop, simply it is Gameloft's fault and not necessarily the stock ROM.

Thank you for such quick response. Cant i use some trick on stock ROM that you have implemented in your custom rom? Fuser-invest i have one question. Suppose I flashed your custom ROM v1.3 by TWRP(replacing my stock recovery). If i want to get back to my Stock ROM and its stock recovery how do i do that? I have found answers like using orange backup, pulling images from adb, etc. Which is the best procedure that i have to follow in case i bricked my ST8 ?
[Android General] fuser-invent:
@ mesarvagya - I provided zips to flash your stock recovery back already. They are on page 65. The gameloft fix involved decompiles the framework.jar, editing the smali code for the telephonymanager and then recompiling the framework.jar. It's not simple or a trick, it took me a good half hour to hour to do it and that's after having done it several times already on other ROM's. You would all be surprised just how many hours I've put into making these ROM's for all the Karbonn users and I don't even own either tablet.

I did think about it a bit though and if you wanted to and know how to, you should be able to simply replace the framework.jar in the stock ROM with the one that is in my custom ROM. You need to know how to do that properly, fix permissions and whatnot, so look it up and make sure you feel comfortable with it before you try it. I won't write a guide for that, there are plenty of tutorials on XDA already. If the games don't show up as "compatible" in the play store, I'm assuming you'd also have to have the build.prop fingerprint changes (Nexus 7 or something else that works) and the proper xml permission files in the right places as well.

Best of luck if you decide to D.Y.I. (Do it yourself).
[Android General] Ozadroid:

Karbonn Custom ST8 & ST10 - v1.4 by fuser-invent

--- ROM Based on firmware DUMP of the Official Stock Firmware ---

Change Log

Karbonn Custom v1.4

Added Extended Power Menu

Possible VPN fix

Possible better Wifi

Defaulted back to 3G / Ethernet / Data enabled

Removed 3G / Ethernet / Data enabler zip

CPU wake/sleep scripts are back in system/etc/virtuous_oc

Updated Additional Apps package

Added new TWRP package

-----

As usual this is untested because I don't own the tablet, so have a TWRP backup ready or flash the older version if it doesn't work. Report back so I and others can know.

The "bootloader" option in the extended power menu just reboots the tablet since these tablets don't have the kind of bootloader you can boot into.

If you want to edit the wake/sleep min/max frequencies you can do so in the virtuous_oc folder. If you change the wake governor to something other than performance2 then you won't benifit from the the 02cpu script in the init.d folder. Be careful with frequencies because they can cause problems if you don't set them correctly. Also, don't try to overclock your device, it won't work and will cause problems.

The TWRP packages are flashable from TWRP and are the newest released by ozadroid. I've fixed them so that you can place the uImage_recovery file inside the zip on your external SD card and boot into TWRP that way. This does not overwrite the stock recovery but just allows you to use TWRP, if you delete the uImage_recovery file from the external SD card you will still have the stock recovery. If you want to be able to reboot into TWRP from the extended power menu then you need to flash TWRP. Just put the uImage_recovery file on your external SD card, boot into TWRP and then flash the TWRP zip.

The additional apps package now has two new apps. One is called Market Helper which is an app to temporarily change/fake your tablet to appear as if it was another device so that you can download non-compatible apps from the app market. The other app is called LMT Launcher and among other things, it has the cool PIE launcher that you may have seen in the new Paranoid Android ROM's. You do need to set it up manually though. If you like these apps, consider donating to the developers because they are useful and really cool.

All the ROM files and the TWRP recovery can be found in the main Karbonn Custom folder and the additional apps package can be downloaded directly from this link.

I just flashed 1.4 and using it FYI ,flashing went well if anyone hesitating :) it looks like wifi does not turn off when screen turns off :D:D:D:D I am sorry its not :(

Help for TWRP

I cant boot to TWRP recovery using uimage_recovery or by using recovery.img of TWRP in my ST8 having stock recovery. So should I have to flash TWRP zip file for using TWRP? Others have reported the process to be working and i cant do it. How can i use TWRP without have to flash the zip.
[Android General] Ozadroid:
I m not sure about the latest uImage but the one test uImage fuser gave me did work.

Also the recovery.img wont work by just simply putting it to sdcard.

And why are you guys so afraid of flashing the zip? :confused:
[Android General] mesarvagya:
Flashing TWRP then..

Ozadroid i will flash your TWRP-2.4.4.0-ST8.zip then. And if anything goes wrong, flashing Fuser's karbonn_st8_factoryreset.zip will solve the recovery problem. isn't that right ?? OK i will then give a try. :)
[Android General] sudersanmurthy:
but in stock rom 1.2 released by fuser wifi always stays on , why cant that be implemented in the custom rom :confused: both are the same kernel right , sorry if i sound :silly: NOOB
[Android General] fuser-invent:
If you have problems with external SD cards, anywhere, at anytime and for any device, go download the SD Formatter program and use it with the option "FULL (Overwrite)." It solves a 90% of the SD card related issues people ask me about.
[Android General] Ozadroid:
Idk i dint see any1 saying wifi got fixed :confused: but afaik its a kernel issue.. rest hope for the best.
[Android General] fuser-invent:
Your right it's a kernel issue, it's not going to be fixed. sudersanmurthy can use the wake lock - powermanager app I mentioned already.
[Android General] Ozadroid:
Yeah everything will be fine untill u just flash it as it is n dont mess with its contents! And even if goes faulty fusers zip will fix it.
[Android General] mesarvagya:
Thanks everyone

I successfully flashed your TWRP and I have backup my OS also :D . I was having a problem though.I had put the zip in my SD card and it was not shown in stock recovery. then i realised that the sdcard was in NTFS format and I reformatted it to FAT and it was shown in recovery. I think NTFS formatted card is not supported in stock recovery. Finally i made it. :good: to Fuser and :good: to Ozadroid :good: to all. :)
[Android General] fuser-invent:
I forgot to mention, there are also two files in that main folder now called "karbonn_st10_stock_recovery.zip" and "karbonn_st8_stock_recovery.zip" that you can flash and they will only flash back the old stock recovery, unlike the "karbonn_st10_factoryreset.zip" and "karbonn_st8_factoryreset.zip" files which will also flash boot.img and bootloader.img. Both are safe if you flash them correctly but If you just want to switch back and forth between recoveries then use the "stock_recovery.zip" files. The "factoryreset.zip" files are more for unbricking.
[Android General] mesarvagya:
small issue on camera

Thanks for your stock recovery file fuser. I have a problem with camera here. The front camera is snapping nice image while the the rear camera is snapping very blurry image even in bright environment. Should i try another camera app or is there any fix for the issue?

Sent from ST8
[Android General] Ozadroid:
Yeah android is based on linux thats why it has probpems with ntfs!
[Android General] fuser-invent:
There is nothing in any of my ROM's referencing the camera, so my guess is that is either a poor quality camera like in my Ainol tablets or that there is a hardware issue. You could try other camera apps though, I've heard the stock camera apps tend not to work great.

Hi Friends

Hi Friends - I have recently bought the Karbonn ST8 for my daughter and would like to customize it with lots of performance tweaks and theme it beautifully. I am an android developer with quite some experience in custom rom and other porting work. You can see some of my work in SGR forum especially this one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1874555

Let me know your wishes and some reference roms that you would like to see in ST8. Lets rock buddies!

[Android General] vrajan:
Let me know where do you stuck with? In device tree set up? I don't have vast exp in building cm10 but I did succeeded in setting up the device tree and were able to make the very basic functionalities to work for my galaxy r. After that I switched to iPhone 5 :). If cm officially supports any tab that has similar config as st8 then we can set the device tree first with much less pain. Btw what is the advantage of cm10.1 over JB. Personally I don't see much diff lol :)
[Android General] ravi_buz:
I installed the 1.4V Rom using the older version of TWRP. In rom tool box pro the CPU is set at 1320 Max and 408 Min.:confused:. Also i am unable to see the 2 new apps that you mentioned were added. Did the install twice but the same effect.

Should i upgrade the TWRP and install the Rom again?
[Android General] vrajan:
@Fuser - I installed custom v1.4 for st8 from stock JB. My first expression is awesome ... What an improvement you brought in the touch sensitivity and over all performance from stock one. Excellent buddy!! I didn't face any problem in the games that my daughter used to play in stock one like temple run 2, subway surfers, angry birds etc yet to test the hd race games though. I will use your rom for some more time and give my feedback. So far I am under the impression that samsung phone only comes up with the **** stock rom and karbonn also no different in that.

Btw one question how to shutdown the tab. When I click the power off in the extended power menu it just restarts the tab. Sorry if it was already answered before.

Thought so. Flashed again and still I dont see V1.4. Any idea why?
[Android General] fuser-invent:
@ ravi_buz - From my release post:

It is clocked to 1320 Max and 408 Min as a middle ground between performance and battery. Make the changes in the scripts, not using an app if you want to adjust them. As for the two new apps, did you flash the "additional apps package" or just the ROM? Also how do you know the ROM isn't updating to v1.4, are there errors in the TWRP log during installation?

@ vrajan - Long pressing the power button should bring up a screen that says something like "power off" and then when you press that, another extended power menu screen should pop up with a bunch of options like reboot, hot boot, shutdown, etc. No ones reported it working or not working yet, so it could be possible the mod didn't work. I don't own the tablets to test on, so my only option is to release new updates and get feedback.

@ Ozadroid - Is there a reason that you aren't just building a compatibility zip for Christian Troy's CM10? It would be way easier than trying to build the whole ROM yourself. A lot of the files can be pulled from the stock rom dump.

The screen of my St8, which I bought yesterday itself, goes haywire while charging. anybody else facing the issue?
[Android General] ACE RNS111:
Its becoz of static discharge i read online, happens with every budget tablets , i read solution to put tab on insulating material and then charge or change the plug point itself, i also read one place that changing the charger also solves the problem, hope it works
[Android General] fuser-invent:
It can happen very often and is usually because of the charger and not the tablet itself. Get a new, good quality charger right away or you can permanently damage your tablet. If you can charge by USB, do that with a quality USB cable for the time being. If not then don't use the tablet while it is plugged in to charge and start looking for a good charger with the right ratings to replace the cheap one.

Oops!, Completely forgot about the need to change the script that i read in the OP and I did not flash the additional package. Sorry about that!

I ran the quadrant and the score touched 4555! this is better than my Galaxy note. I connected this device to my 42" LED TV set the display at 1080p and still the quadrant score were high. No jag at all. Truly amazing device this is.

BTW any one tested using a usb hub with this device. I want to know if I can connect both Keyboard and mouse to this device at the same time. The power supplied by the USB might be less and so I can buy a powered USB hub. But want to know if that will work.
[Android General] masood939:
@ravi. You can connect both mouse and keyboard via usb hub. I tested it myself.

[Android General] ravi_buz:
You used the HUB that needs power or the one that does not require additional power supply?
[Android General] handy5876:
I totally second that. Cheap chargers are a big no no. I have seen some chargers where I have measured 230 volts !! on the charging pin and the screen goes totally wonky.
