Re: [SC-02C] Any Rom Patcher by Simmo [Updated : 2013/02/04]

Cheers. I'll rock Neat till it freaks out on me. As for Google Docs, I used firefox on the desktop to download the tweaker then copied it over to my phone.

Trying again tho.

Feature Requests

Hey SimmoF,

First off, thanks for all the work you've put into this.

I have a few additional patches that I do when I install a new ROM that your patcher doesn't cover. They're pretty general and was wondering if you could include them in the patcher.

First off: Thanks to the sp-mode patches that you've done (WAPPush etc), Communicase (MUCH better sp-mode mail app) works for everything except WiFi. It currently crashes when you try to set the wifi password. To fix this, before Communicase is installed, you can add libdaaCrypto.so and docomoAccountAuthenticator.apk in their respective directories and 644 them. If you did this after installing Communicase, you have to reinstall. With these, the call to DAA works and doesn't crash when adding the wifi password.

Second: Emoji.... By adding libemoji_docomo.so and adding "ro.config.libemoji=libemoji_docomo.so" to the build.prop file, we can now display emoji like the stock roms. I have read, but not attempted, that you can do this with local.prop as well (Japanese: http://androidlover.net/smartphone/galaxynexus/emoji-use-local-prop.html)

I have uploaded the 3 files mentioned above to my Google drive and will PM you the link. If you could add these I think they would be helpful for other NTT users.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SimmoF:
Sounds good. I'll play around with it later.

Edit: I have updated the patcher to include said tweaks. Please test it for me. Thanks.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] benjp2k1:
I'm swamped with dev work right now. But, I'll undo my tweaks and test it this weekend.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] benjp2k1:
docomoAccountAuthenticator that you included has a 2008 timestamp. Did you grab the files from my google drive? I copied over my backup copy and it worked fine. But, the copy in the script didn't work. The lib files, and local.prop work great though.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SimmoF:
You never sent me your Google Drive link.

Edit: It's there but it never alerted me to it and it did not appear as unread on XDA.

I will up the new one.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] benjp2k1:
I think it may be ROM related but the two most recent versions of SlimROM (SlimBean), based off of ASOP, with the DormianX kernel do not have working GPS, even with the fix in the patcher. Going to try another ROM, again, later when I have a chance - but I really like Slim on my Nexus 7 for battery life and was hoping to run it on the SC02C.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SimmoF:
My patcher does not work on 4.2.x roms with wjchen's fix.

If the kernel supports Siyah's init.d patch, it should work.

Maybe it's broken in the latest Dorimanx, or support was accidentally removed. You can ask in that thread.

For now you can try sakuramilk's kernel for 4.2.x, from here.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] benjp2k1:
Well that would explain it then since it's a 4.2.2 ROM. I'll try the KBC kernel then and see if that does it. Though in the past I've had issues with freezing and reboots with KBC. Worst case, I go down to 4.1.x

EDIT: Seems to be working fine on KBC
[Miscellaneous Android Development] clement.km:
For me, KBC with supernexus 2.0 built 4 everthing works well, deep sleep works fine,

But battery drian much when screen on.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SimmoF:
Turn brightness down? Or you can try the Dorimanx kernel for CM.

I am playing with that now. Using my patcher the GPS works.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] benjp2k1:
Sorry for taking so long to get around to testing it. But, the 4/28 version works now with communicase :good:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gdflash:
I'm trying to get GPS working under cm10.1 and having no luck. The patcher doesn't work. I tried to use the Kbc kernel, but after downloading and flashing the os won't boot. I get the docomo screen , then blackness.

Am I not using KBC .zip correctly?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SimmoF:
Weird stuff happens with KBC. It boots and then sleeps and gets sleep of death.

Make sure you have the right kernel. If you want you can try Dorimanx kernel. It worked for me.

I left cm10.1 because of too many little bugs.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gdflash:
thanx simmo. guess I'll try dorimanX.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] gdflash:
Got a newer version of the kbc kernel and flashed it. Booted up ok, and GPS appears to be working. We'll see about stability ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Jubei:
Where do you guys get the kbc kernels? The page I used to get them at now says something about suspending service due to inability to support or something like that:

https://github.com/kbc-developers/release/wiki/Sc02c
[Miscellaneous Android Development] E43JAP:
I used to use the siyah MCM v5 kernel until the "4.2" ROMs started appearing. After that, the original "GPS FIX" didn't work anymore. I also used to use the any rom patcher, but that stopped working also. I was searching for a new GPS FIX, but nobody seemed to be working on any fixes anymore. THEN I found KBC developers kernel and haven't had any major problems whatsoever. You will need the compass fix unless you use a japanese rom which I honestly wouldn't recommend. Just use a "stable" rom like AOKP or something, flash gapps, flash KBC kernel, wipe cache and Dalvik cache, reboot into recovery, flash compass fix, FIX PERMISSIONS! And reboot. SIMPLE:thumbup:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SimmoF:
Hey. The patcher works on 4.2 but you must be using a Siyah based kernel such as the one by Dorimanx or the KBC one. CM10.1 is not stable enough for my liking. I used it for 6 weeks.

I do not recommend using it.

The GPS fix in my patcher by wjchen, does but work with 4.2. My patcher sites have the necessary code to activate the siyah GPS fix.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] E43JAP:
Thank you for the info. I was using it up to when you put the MP4 modem in the patcher and am currently running AOKP Milestone 1 ROM with an older KBC kernel. I know you removed the modem from the patcher since that time but I happened across the KBC kernel beforehand which "fixed" my GPS so I have been using since that time. Was wondering because the thread title still has the old date. I really would like to use a kernel that supports BLN because that is the main reason I was using the MCM kernel and at the time, dori kernel was quite "unstable" for my liking. I also noticed the last time I used the any rom patcher, my APNs weren't being set for spmode, but now I have a "NEW TOY", so as long as the GPS works properly with 4.2 ROMs and the BLN works, I will just use as a "Wi-Fi" device.

Thank you for the great work you are doing for the Android crackflashers community. Sorry that I can't donate to you directly because I don't use plastic money.:p

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SimmoF:
Sorry, I have updated the tool but not the thread. That's laziness on my part. I'll find some time to do it soon. I'll be putting the modem back in soon too.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] E43JAP:
PM on the way.:thumbup:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] clement.km:
hello SimmoF, If I want to enable bln in the Sammy based JB, which kernel will work with your patcher? Thanks.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aperception:
Sorry for the noob question, but:

I flashed wanamlite XWLSW v14.6 and then flashed "Simmo's SC-02C Any-Rom Tweaker 20130428.zip" from Simmo's Google Drive folder.

Is this all I'm supposed to do? Under settings->about device it has the following suspicious information:

Model Number: GT-I9100

Baseband version: I9100 XXMS2

Kernel version: 3.0.31-1211311 (....)

Build number: JZ054K.I9100XWLSW

Additionally:

It's hard to tell since I only just install today, but the battery seems to be draining extremely fast. Is this too be expected, and if so what would currently be the most stable ROM which improves this?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SimmoF:
Firstly, please try the new tweaker that I uploaded on 2013-06-16.

The battery always appears to drain quickly on a new flash. I am using the latest NeatRom Lite, it has the XWLSW base.

I have found the battery life to be quite good and better than the last official JB releases.

The battery usually appears to drain quicker on new installs. It's best to wait a few days.

Use BetterBatteryStats to track down if an app is causing your drainage.

I am getting 2% an hour drain while the phone is asleep. Which is very good.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aperception:
Thanks Simmo! I can't see the file on your shared drive linked in your signature though. Additionally, the link in the first post of the thread is not there.

Finally I should see SC02C-OMLPL under Baseband Version after flashing the new patch right...?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SimmoF:
The file is there now. Google drive sync had stopped.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] aperception:
Thanks, I can see the SC02C-OMLPL baseband now
[Miscellaneous Android Development] eternalcrewthiago:
android version- 4.2.2

baseband- mj4

kernel version- dorimanx-V8.30

rom-codename lungo galaxy s2

flashed your tweaker (20130706) when open maps it is ok but when activate navigation it does not find the location,but thanks anyways!my baseband became mmp4 so I will stay with this baseband!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SimmoF:
Try running the script /system/etc/init.d/S00Tweaks manually.

Sometimes I need to do this.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] eternalcrewthiago:
Noob question

Can you guide me how to?

I dont know how to deal with script. Would apreciate the help...by the way this dorimanx kernel + the gps fix(s99fixnttgps)works flawlessly
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Bilgets:
well, trying to help

use terminal emulator or maybe script manager..

if using terminal emulator :

$ su

# cd /system/etc/init.d

# S00Tweaks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Xaeons:
First of all, thanks for these tweaks, I'm from the Philippines and I got my SC-02C from a friend who can't use it locally with any sim.

I managed to unlock it and install custom ROMS/Kernel, I can send/receive texts but can't make/receive calls, so I spent the whole week trying any modem/RIL I could try to no avail.

When I tried NeatROM and this tweak, the first time I tried to make a call it worked! But I love the style and look of SlimBean, so I installed the latest DorimanX kernel, SlimBean and gapps, then flashed your tweaks.

Still working. :highfive:

One question though, when I checked the phone's info, the baseband says it's SC02COMMP4.

When I was on NeatROM it was on OMLPL, and my carrier signal was really high indoors, now it;s barely 1 bar.

I tried flashing OMLPL (modem and modem+RIL) before/after flashing your tweaks and it kept removing the baseband (says baseband is unknown in the phone info). Flashing your tweaks again (without wiping anything) reverted the baseband back to OMMP4. Is this normal?

Thanks.

PS: I bought you a beer, you deserve it :good: hope you continue this excellent work of yours
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SimmoF:
OK. My patcher includes OMMP4 as it is designed to be used in Japan.

All SC-02C kernels are on my google drive, you can download them all in 1 file, extract them and use the one that you want.

When I was in Australia, I used Optus. So I flashed the Optus baseband (i9100 global model), and things worked better.

Then when I got back to Japan I reflashed the Japanese baseband.

Feel free to try any baseband, don't mess with the ril too much.

Does the Phillipines have a GS2? If so, try flashing that baseband. If not, try the international version. If that's not good, install any that you like from my shared drive folder. The link is in my signature.

MobileOdin is a nice tool for flashing modems, it's free on XDA, I recommend you use that so you can try flashing modems when you are out and about, and you won't need a PC.

So modem checklist: Phillipines modem, International modem, OMLPL modem, OMMP4(in my patcher).

App checklist, MobileOdin and compatible Flash Kernel (from same page).

Good luckk. Use what's best for you, everyone has different findings. Like I said, the international modem was better for me when I was overseas.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Xaeons:
I have installed MobileODIN and FlashKernel and now trying the modems. Will let you know, thank you.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] knutola:
Also working for international i9100?

Hello. Will this patch also work for International i9100? Then I can use it with a Docomo SIM so I can use the Mobile Internet under paketto houdai. (with SPMODE subscription meant for Smartphone paketto houdai). Not working on the stock international i9100.

Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SimmoF:
This patch will not work on the international i9100. In fact it will break it the gps and other things too.

The international model does not support docomo's full radio band.

And finally, sp-mode only works for docomo branded handsets, they use imei blocking.

You will have to switch to the mopera data plan, which unfortunately costs more but it does come with a real pop3 mail address.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] knutola:
Thank you very much for a quick answer! Then I guess my friend should buy a docomo handset, new at the docomostore or second hand.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SimmoF:
Well, is your friend here permanently or just for a short stay?

Softbank has a motorola with snapdragon s4 cpu for free.

Cheapest call plan + pakehoudai + no breakout fee is like 7k a month.

If they are stayin for 6 months or more you can choose the breakout fee plan which worka out cheaper past 6 months.

If they must have docomo, wait for the autumn/winter lineup that is due soon.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Tantarado:
Hi Simmo,

I am also from the philippines, before my problem was unlocking the sim network but that has been solved, thanks to you and evildave666.

Now i would like to know if the Any Rom Patcher will wipe previous data and install a new one? another is, will the said rom remove the docomo apps on my phone.... since the phone is given to me by my niece and there aren't docomo services here in Manila, Philippines... lastly which file do i have to download in the google drive? :fingers-crossed:

Cheers!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SimmoF:
You should install the latest wanamlite s2 rom with the latest Philz kernel and my patcher.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Tantarado:
SC-02C

Hi Simmo,

Is [ROM][07/06][LSW][4.1.2][V14.6] the latest version? it also states that it has Safe CWN included (thanks to Philz)...

If it is, then what i need to do is:

1. Backup, backup, backup (titanium backup)...

2. Flash with Wanamlite (latest version) using Odin...

and

3. Patch it with Any Rom patcher (2013/06 or 1213/07?)

Did i get it right? :fingers-crossed:

Cheers!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SimmoF:
Yep
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Tantarado:
Hi Simmo,

I have found ROM 07/06 LSW 4.1.2 V14.6, but it is also stated that the rom is for "GT-I1900 only", will it work with sc-02c? or the "Any Rom Patch" will make it for for sc-02c?

Cheers!

:fingers-crossed:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] SimmoF:
Yes, gti9100 is almost the same as sc02c.

My patcher will fix the GPS, compass and camera.

The oneseg will only work on the one set in Japan.

Reviews on the s3 version indicated it did drop signal just as any other aluminum case. It's nice but not worth the money. It is machined perfectly and does look good, probably the best looking case setup I've seen.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Vanquiz:
I used Draco for my S3, for me it's worth the price, paid around $65 that time, but it makes the phone bigger significantly, which fine with me for S3, but for Note2, I think it's too much.

Signal does drop a little bit.

VITREO on, right? :) I assume Draco lip is high enough to lay screen down without temp. glass touching the surface? Since I'm not familiar with bumper cases, do they offer a good drop protection? I assume there is a padding inside to absorb the shock and isolate phone from hitting the metal bumper frame if dropped.

... never mind, saw your official review post and got my answers about the design :)

I was thinking I'm done with reviews of cases, but this kind of picked my curiosity again ;)
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] chrischoi:
Vitreo has enough of a border it doesn't touch the case. When laid flat, I think the Vitreo and bumper touch at the same contact point.

Tolerance looks very close. hard to tell. I slide it on the edge of a counter and it seems seamless. If anything the Vitreo sticks out a little further than the bumper.

[About XDA developers] tallyforeman:
There were several threads that have been effected by this. What I don't understand is why were the threads not reviewed before such a decision were made? The title "Off Topic" apparently makes you the black sheep on XDA. I've read where in some threads that the so called "Off Topic" thread actually offered support without being ridiculed or trolled. There's alot of good information and bonds that have developed in some of these threads. Instead of loading up a mods inbox with a zillion PM's, why not just put it all out there for everyone to see? Somewhere there was a notice given that this was coming, but today is the first that myself and many others have ever heard of it. Can someone explain this to me and the rest of the community as to why there were no research or discussion (in the area of the threads) put forth in making a decision such as this?
[About XDA developers] motcher41:
I concur. Besides being off topic most of the users there have contributed in and out of the Droid X2 Off Topic thread. If you were to look through the 7000+ posts you would see that many users in our thread are productive members of XDA.

[About XDA developers] BreatheALittle:
Well said, to both of you. I see the XperiaX10 group continued their thread in this forum, as well. I truly think the excuse of "these threads add nothing to the community" is a thinly veiled excuse for them wanting to thin out older forums. Diamondback and other mods know that many people have moved on from those phones. If they close out some threads, that's less work/moderating they have to do. Had they actually taken a moment to think, they would realize that it was those threads that kept those forums alive, producing active conversations regarding smartphone technology as a whole. Then again, perhaps that was exactly the problem - it kept those forums alive.

It's unfortunate that a website that promotes community around technology, shuts down threads that build community. Oh, XDA, you beautiful paradox. :rolleyes:
