ROM v1.2.8

The ROM is now available for download!

Check the first page!

Enjoy!:good:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mat33n:
I just downloaded and installed the rom its awesome... just a few things

- the 3g logo has gone back to the android one, was it suppose to do that?

- The ilauncher is awesome but the issue i am having is that "double pressing" the home button does not bring up the taskbar/ music controls. is there a way to fix this?

Thanks :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
The widgets will appear as soon as you open both applications.

The notification toggle and the weather , Set your homeplace and the widget will appear.

that launcher don't have that function. But on my next release it will be :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mat33n:
Awesome i cant wait... ilauncher is so much smoother just needs that iso task manager to open when double pressed on home button so you can close apps etc.

the weather does not show on mine :( still not a big issue. Also the 3G icon is it met to be the old one? and not the iphone one? on the last rom it had changed to the iphone one now its back to the android one?

Hi , Can you use your headphone for talking with the mic with the goophone because I can't I don't know if it's a software problem or an hardware problem ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
Did the flash card stoped after you flash your phone?

To remove the display you need to remove the 2 screws from the phone.

Then with a sticky cup pull up the display. Carefull to not damage the conectors.

About the display try to send an email to the cheap choice i think they can get spare parts.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
I actually think you can..but only with bluetooth.

With the jack you can only plug headphones. Not headphones + micro

Goo Phone i5 Lite ROM V1.2.8

Hi im Just wondering if the Goo Phone Lite ROM V1.2.8 Will work on a Goo Phone i5 V2 Quad Core Version as i want flash when i get the phone as i do not want to brick the device please reply thank you John S
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mat33n:
there is not quad core version... i am guessing you have the ALPS i5 phone which is a zophone clone. and they say it is quad core but it is actually a dual core.

now for the rom. Mayandjay is working on a rom for the zophone i5.

Hello Manuxo

Nice work the new update, but I have a problem.

I solved the problem of erase the initial Goophone Logo when start the phone in the last rom version changing the logo.img.

Now I updated the new 1.2.8 and again the “Goophone logo” starts for a few seconds in the beginning before the apple logo.

I changed with SP Flash tool the file “logo.img” for other older like before, it worked last time but now not.

What I can do?

Thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] paasklaas:

[Miscellaneous Android Development] simeks:
Manuxo , all ok , but need to fix gps and a-gps problem on the next rom
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
I wish i could fix everything. But this things take time.

There is to much things to be fixed, and i'm the only one that i'm working on it.

Since this phone was released many things were already fixed. So in future maybe i'll be able to make a 100% functional.

I can't promess that the GPS will be fixed on the next release but i'll give it a try.

On the next release the differences are enormous comparing to the v1.2.8 i've released a few days.

So it is already a big step. I'm making one thing at the time.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] rafa55:
Hi Manuxo,

Did you checked my last question, I don't know how erase the "goophone" word now at the beginning when start the phone.

Before with the last version, I solved it but now, after updated to the 1.2.8 it happened again. What can do?

Thanks for revising the GPS for the next version it is a very good idea

[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
You must flash the phone with just the "logo.img" of a previous firmware than 0131.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
I think not! The 2 phones must be a different firmware so..i don't actually believe it will work. They are 2 different phones.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] rafa55:
Hi Manuxo,

I flased with the "logo.img" from the rom "goophone-i5-0107-f-001" but it continue what I may do?

question to ios

Hey guys

I think, that what you do is very amazing, but the modding of the goophone fw should look like the original ios ? Or ?

So i dont know who is my opinion, but i prefer a CLONE rom :)

- So my purpose is to say that it could look more like ios, it is totally your option wheather you do it or not.

As exe. We could change some things in the setingsapp, music app, and there where should look more like ios
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
All my ROMS are iOS style based on the original goophone software.

The ROM that i'm going to release tomorow (only for that people who have donated) is more iOS like than before.

It has already new functions that weren't present on the previous releases like:

- New lockscreen

- New launcher

- Iphone icons on the taskbar

- Possibility to make video calls.

- Possibility to insert and manage the APNS

- And much more..

i'm saying i'll be glad to donate to you if you could send me the rom(: can i please so that i may receive it, cause the 1.2.8 drains the battery way to fast
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
The battery issue may not be ROM problem.

If you have all services activated (wifi , 3g data, gps) always turned on. The battery will drain too fast!

This phones brings a weak Battery.

If you connect the services only when needed you will see that the battery will last more than 24h without charging. :)

Hello.

Has just made a donation, do I agree link?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
You can delete the passbook from the system/app folder using the es file explorer.

To remove the boot.img from the ROM you need to flash the logo.img of the first stock software with the flash tool.

Heyho

Some things I've noticed in 1.3 and wonder if it's normal:

Problems I cannot fix myself:

-Downloaded Calendar / instant close when opening saying "Calendar has stopped working" (cleaned cache/dalvik cache/ user data before AND after installing ZIP (with Clockworkmod))

-Some Chinese Apps can't be deleted (or where do I have to delete them? /system/apps ?) eg. Safari thingie

Easy Problems, I can solve myself:

-The Keyboard seems to be a chinese one on default

-3g connection needs to be enabled manually

What I've to say is that the ROM runs really really smooth and much better than stock / the old one!!

Keep up the good work and thank you!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
About the keyboard, i left the original one (chinese) but i've added a new one. A.i Type.

The chinese apps can be deleted from the /system/apps. The safari clone is on the bottom.

3G networks can be activated automatically. But it only work for a few networks because Europe (for example) is changing the infrastructures to 4G so the old apn settings will not work.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mimueller92:
Any idea what's to do with the Calendar bug? I'm expieriencing this since V1.2 - several others too (after my last post, I got some PMs from ppl telling me the same):

Maybe some additional information:

It's a Goophone i5 lite from android-sale.com

CWM says: CWM-based Recovery v6.0.1.2

(N2k1 Edition from GT-i9300) with the Chinamobiles logo

Since it does not work I'm accessing the Calendar through Web-Interface - but thats a little annoying by time

Everything else is working great and it's a great phone!! (also the battery live is great. I'm at work since 7 hours, still 77% (flashed it and everything...)

I'd be very pleased if you could give me an advice what I could try to do! (Cache/Dalvik/UserData clearing I've done for sure)

regards

Edit:

2 more things

-i saw in /system/app the googleCalendarAdapter thingie - can't install it somehow, is this the bug?!

-can't access accuweather/gmail settings in order to change from fahrenheit to celsius, any idea?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
The home button have been remaped so...long press it to see the settings menu.

PS: do not delete googleCalendarAdapter. Otherwise you will lose your calendar.

Regards
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mimueller92:
I know the long-press thing , but when I do this and go on settings, the app crashes , sorry for my bad explanation :)

No idea but the calendar doesn't work (instant crash on opening) no idea what's wrong :(

I have the feeling that I did not flash it properly, do you use CWM also?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
Yes, i've the same problem.

I've downloaded the accuweather from the playstore. So i think that it is a playstore issue.

I recommed you to unninstall it and then install it again.

About the Calendar. That is a firmware error. So on every iOS styled software you try for this phone, you will always get that error from the calendar.

I think that is due to a service and not the application itself.

On previous versions of android i was easy to add services to the OS. With the latest ICS and JB is not that easy.

I'm still trying to fix this issue..but with no success until now.

That issue only happens if you have your calendar sync activated. So if you turn it off, the apk will work.

Regards
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mimueller92:
Alright you helped me alot , thanks!

So I'm right that currently there's no way to have a google-synced calendar working? Except for going through webinterface?

The more I use this ROM the more I love it, you're awesome!

I'd suggest everybody with this phone to donate to this guy! His work is just awesome and we should help him to enjoy live!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
Thank you for your words.

As it seems the error is on the android manifest file.

Being the calendar a service, i think i must add a READ function of this service on boot load. I'll try to include this fixe on my v1.3.1 version.

On the stock chinese software the 3G and google apps don't work because in china they are forbidden to use this services. About the 3G they insert the ocidental apn list files. But the carriers are always updating them. So that's why many people can't have access to their 3G network automatically.

But with my last ROM you have access to the apn list and you actually can edit/add/remove them.

Another reason is because in china they only use 2G networks.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] mat33n:
love the new rom

hey Manuxo,

I love the new rom! glad u took my advice and ported the zophone software to the gophone i love it!...

i only have one issue the switch for silent isnt working anymore :( do u have this issue? is there a way to fix this?

is there a way to make the home button work like the goophone software ie home button takes u one and not back??

also there are no more missed call or text msg notifications on home screen how do i get this back? and the silent icon is not the silent icon on the status bar

Thanks again :D:laugh:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mimueller92:
weird behaviour!

Anyone with the V1.30 rom has this issue:

For several apps (eg. WhatsApp) I cannot access the Settings, the app just crashes when I try to do so

Any idea what that could be?

As Manuxo told before it should be on the App-APK side - but it's for several apps and only since the 1.3 update, there may be a bug in the ROM.

I'm confused
[Miscellaneous Android Development] vnman:
Yes I noticed the silent switch is not working anymore.

I tried Yahoo weather as I am not a fan of Accuweather and Settings crashed.

Updated GMail also crashed.

Alarm tone changing is not working, just shows lots of "Alarm" all the way and not a chance to save the tone. Now my "Alarm" just "Vibrate"....'
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
About the Gmail you can't update it. And i don't know why.

If you already did go to the apps and uninstall the updates, clear data and cache and open it again.

Regards

People thank you very much for relating the issues that you are having.

That is a very important step to help me to identify and solve the bugs.

About the ringtones i can actually change them.

Did you?

- Wiped Data / Factory Reset

- Wiped cache

- Advanced -> Wiped dalvik cache

Before the installation of this version?

i like 2.8 over 3

Hi Manuxo,

I really like the new but rom the issue is the the zophone (3.0 update) software is really buggy (same issues when i had a zophone) but has a few good things. after using the 3.0 i actually went back to the 2.8 why becuase the gophone software has:

- the contacts/phone app looks and works so much better!

- the music app is more like the iphone 5 (only thing is it does not have rotate to album view)

- the sms/ missed call notifications on lock screen and top up sms notifications

- the clock app is more like iphone even when the alarm goes off (to turn off and snooze)

- radio app is much better

- the home button is actually the home button and not the back button (is is so much better)

the only thing i really liked the about the 3.0 was

- the ilauncher as the main launcher and the double tap to open the task manager,

- incoming call you can open more options like iphone 5 to cancel calls.

- the notification bar looks more like iphone.

I was wondering if you could just add the 3.0 features mentioned above to the 2.8 gophone software.

Thanks heaps.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] AShacks:
To set the home button as HOME goto system/usr/keylayout/ and open mtk-kpd.kl with text editor. There you will see this: key 102 BACK.

Change 'BACK' to 'HOME' and save. Reboot. Done. For multitasking you'll have to hold the home button instead of double tap and the home button works as a home button.

Hope this helped. Cheers
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Manuxo:
There are much more differences than that you related.

On the v1.2.8 you can't do video calls

you can't access to apn settings

you don't have emotions on mms

you don't have lockscreen and everything else translated to every language

you can't have ilauncher with task bar

You can't send messages when rejecting calls

you don't have the facetime option on the contacts

you can't fix the GPS

So both versions have limitations. But i honestly think that this version is more functional than the previous one.

I could mix them, but i can't include some functions present on the 1.3.0 on 1.2.8.

So it is up to you to choose wich one you prefeer. In my case i'm using the v1.3.0 until i release the new one.

Regards
