one question

Hi Bruno , first of all congratulations for your rom and thans for your work.

I want to know if the last version of you rom have the problem with sports apps like endomondo and runtastic.

In mtk 6589 this apps works well but don´t show the correct speeds and distances. I read in another forums that is solves adding some lines in build.prop, but not work in some modifieds rom.

Have you heard anything about this?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] b3rok:
Hmmmm I've heard that the problem with apps like Endomondo or Sky Map are related with hardware - ZTE V987 doesn't have magnetic compass. I'm not sure is it possible to resolve by software hacks.

Bruno - what's your opininion?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] clio94:
I have zte v967s which doesnt have compass and after adding in build.prop the line

dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:fast endomondo shows correct speed and distance
[Miscellaneous Android Development] josemanuelo:
In other spanish forum ( movilesdualsim) is posted the solution.

In /system/build.prop we have to add this line dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:fast. This has been tested in Q9000 ,h7500+,thl w200,zopo c2,Jiayu 3gs mtk 6589 phones with stock rom. Some users of modified roms says not work in his roms.

Is any risk to do this changes on build.prop Bruno?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] b3rok:
clio94 - endomondo works, what about sky map?

osemanuelo - I don't know all smartphones which you've mentioned, but I'm sure that ZOPO C2 have a magnetic compass.

EDITED

also JIAYU G3S, thl w200 - have a magnetic compass...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] josemanuelo:
Do you use stock rom or modified rom ?

[Miscellaneous Android Development] josemanuelo:
It works !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I added the line at the end of build.prop and endomondo shows the corrects distances and speeds.:good:

But i have a question. This change affect in the performance of our phones ? Anyone knows what happens?. Im not an experimented developer.

Bruno, we want to hear your wise words !!!!!!!!

Hello Bruno,

This rom is the Best for this device.

I had a question, since two days algo when my phone boots appears the message "Actualizando Android" (Updating Android) and dont know why!!! Do you know how can I correct this situation ? the message appears only 2 seconds every time I boot.

Best Regards
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bgcngm:
Basically, what that change to the build.prop does is to disable JIT (Just in Time). If it fixes the problem and you don't get any side-effects, then great. ;)

That happens in the last release. Just ignore that message. It is nothing serious and that's why I did not care too much about that.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Pe3ball:
That's the message that appeared to me also after each boot. This message also causes the alarm to freeze the phone and not responding. This happens with the phone closed. Please check this issue.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] f_speed:
Thanks Bruno for your fast answer, in my case, works all fine , included the alarm.

I try yo solve this problem, uninstalling apps but nothing happen, in my last xiaomi 2m1 phone I have the same messsage every boot up and I solve uninstalling some apps that uses root.

Regards

It is not known how xposed framework will do with jit disabled. But it's easy to test. Either it works or not :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Wywern.pl:
Don't know how Xposed, but your GravityBox works fine with JIT diabled :)

[Miscellaneous Android Development] gojo.pl:
Endomondo doesnt need compass to work. The issue can be solved as you could read above.

Sky map requires compass to work and this cannot be soft-hacked. Use some alternative soft, where you can navigate using fingers :)

Has anyone noticed that the 4-pin jack audio configuration is the same as sony xperia?? I mean that any of the headphones w/ mic that I have doesn't work with the v987 except my xperia´s x10 ones. The main reason I changed my x10 was the propietary config of sony LoL xD

the most interesting part in this rom is that it adds dualsim 3g !!! I thought that this function was a hw limitation (my thl w7s has this function in stock rom) but i tried and i have 3g and 3g videocall in 2nd sim too.

Hi to all, I detect a new little problem:

When I go to sleep I leave my phone programmed to turn off at 00:00 and works ok but at 7:50 it does not power on, however if the alarm sounds at 8:00 I'm able to turn in ON.

It happen to you too?

Help needed...

Bruno i appreciate very much your work. I install your rom on my ZTE V970 and it's awesome!

This is probably non topic but, i just bouhgt ZTE v967s. Can i try this on? It seems to have the same specs with the V987 on hardware, except the display analysis and a few non matter things.

Will be working after this? Any chance to brick it?

Any help is very welcome...

Thank you and sorry if it is bad post.

Best regards
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bgcngm:
First of all, please edit your post and remove the full quote. Secondly, it doesn't hurt if you try (unless you don't have a backup), but I can tell you that without a true port, the custom ROMs for V987 won't work straight forward on V967S.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] alexw801:
SD card frequently dropped

On my V987 (with Bruno's latest ROM) the SD card more and more frequently is dropped, needs reboot. What can be the reason?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zperetz:
Usually in these cases it means that your SD will be dead very soon. You need to get the new one.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] alexw801:
SD brand

Thanks, but which brand to buy?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bgcngm:
I have a Samsung 64GB microSD XC Class10 for some time now and never had any problems with it. Before that I had a 16GB microSD HC Class10, also Samsung branded and it is still working fine (using it on my tablet now).
[Miscellaneous Android Development] angemon10:
I don't know if anbody reported but there is a bug with battery stats - every time I restart phone this happen:

Battery level just start from the last position where it was. I multiply times restarted phone and it always happen.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Flow:
Exactly. Have done this mod a few weeks ago and It works perfectly fine with everything and most important, the GPS signal stabilises :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] b3rok:
I'm still waiting for my ZTE V987 http://www.17track.net/en/result/post.shtml?nums=RQ201223075SG and reading about updating to V3.0R2MOD : ). So please, correct me if I'm wrong:

1. Run recover (CWM) and install V3.0R2MOD,

2. In CWM - install: "Fixed insecure kernel"

3. In CWM - install: newest GravityBox

4. In /system/build.prop we have to add this line dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:fast. (Endomondo hack)

5. The end?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bgcngm:
That's correct! But don't say it is the end, it's a fresh new start. :laugh:

Insecure kernel? Info? :S

Hi guys.

I'm using my zte for two weeks and i have one question.

But first things first, so i would like to say many thanks for Bruno, for fantastic job with his rom. It works just flawless.

My question is:

I'm using two sim cards, one is personal, second is for job. I have contacts binded, some to personal, some to second sim card. General setting is to always ask which card to use. Is it possible to make my phone not asking me which card use when contact is binded? I mean that i am not binding contacts to have suggested sim, but to always use same card for same contact without useless questions.

Thanks for answers in advantage.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dakok:
Need help! A half-urgent one!

Everything was fine, until today when I was attempting to flash a new Lewa rom.

Went into CWM (the latest bruno`s v6.0.3.5) but whatever option I use, or if I don´t touch anything

CWM menu screen vanishes after 10 seconds and phone reboots to OS.

I have to point out that I flashed few roms recently and everything was OK.

Latest things I did was 2-3 wifi OTA miui updates during previous 2 weeks.

Tried to google for a solution, but I couldn`t find anything usable.

I reinstalled cwm thru mobileuncle tools, but it didn`t help a bit.

:(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Rara Avis:
The same problem. Messaged ZTE support with this omission on stock FW, got template come-off.

Currently:

Way too much SIM selection windows...

Expected:

Would be great this to see this fixed.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ndouchin:
I have the same problem, when i flash the 2 latest miui update, my cwm becomes not stable at all, reboot by its own....

The only solution is to wipe cache , in cwm when it is possible, or by command line, thus cwm is stables. (fastboot erase cache ), and to come back to the 3.9.13 miui upate (it appears with 3.9.20 and 3.9.27)

I don't know what's going on...

fter that i tried several chinese custom rom , no problems.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dakok:
Thanks a lot! Although I tried to clear cache in cwm before,

it seems I wasn't fast enough. Now I was quicker and

managed to solve the problem.

:)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zperetz:
Bruno, can you do something about it? Auto clean, or something?

And still question about BeatsAudio :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ndouchin:
Yes Bruno, can you do something about the cwm auto reboot which appears with the 2 last miui update. Do you need some logs?

Thanks by advance!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tsiglas:
Yes i have notice this zte bug a few mounths ago.....it will be great to make it work us you bescribe above....

In my old acer gallant duo it was working this way and it was very helpfull....

Bruno could this bug solved from gravity box or else???
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bgcngm:
I'll do something about it if it turns out to be a bug with CWM recovery... to be clear, I'm not supporting LewaOS or MiUI related custom ROMs.

Can you confirm that this is a bug of the stock ROM as well?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ndouchin:
I understand that if the problem comes from miui , you don't have to find a workaround. How do you build the recovery? Do you use this : http://builder.clockworkmod.com/, from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2132672
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tsiglas:
Yes i have read somewhere else that unfortunately the bug exist in every rom....i have test it only in merimobile china rom (rooted)and your rom...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bgcngm:
I build CWM recovery directly from sources. Online builder is not compatible with MTK devices.

By every ROM do you mean that the bug is also present on other devices, not just V987?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tsiglas:
Νο i mean with every v987 rom.....

I want to ask something else to....is it posible with gravity box to have the battery notification sound and popup message in 10% and 5%?I mean to have a choice in what present(%) it will notify us......

I give you a small donation....i own you some more....

[Miscellaneous Android Development] chavv:
If one has the stock B01 ROM, and wants to install latest Bruno ROM, can it be done directly from recovery without repartitioning?

A friend of mine has TWRP 2.5 installed, made a backup... but he is novice to Android and I want to give him simple instructions (like "put this zip in sdcard and install from recovery then wipe caches")

Will it work this way?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bgcngm:
Yes, it sure does work that way. ROM installation does not depends if internal memory is re-partitioned or not. The only thing is that if he decides later to apply the re-partitioning mod, userdata partition has to be formatted in order to recognize the new size.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DaKyy:
Anyone got expeience what call recording software works with this rom? ACR does not work atleast for me.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bgcngm:
Here is the latest CWM recovery built from CM10.1 repo.

V987 CWM Recovery V6.0.3.7.7z - 6.00 MB

This is specially for those having issues with spontaneous reboots within recovery mode (when using MiUI based ROMs). Don't know if it solves the problem, so please try. If it doesn't... well, use a different recovery, for example TWRP.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] fok3r:
Its possible to get Pdroid worcking , i was reading something about need to pach the rom to alow pdroid work but im noob on that kind stuff ;/
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bgcngm:
PDroid is old and not maintained anymore. A better alternative is XPrivacy, another great Xposed module.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kielkiam:
Sorry for this question .....

But how enable xPrivacy xposed module?

Probably I am blind, but I cannot find the xposed settings. I have also a jiayu g3 with xposed framework and gravitybox pre-installed and there are xposed settings where I can enable others modules.

So I installed xposed installer, but when I try to enable xPrivacy module ( and also for greenefy module), I have two messages: " cannot write /data/xposed/module.whitelist" and " cannot write /data/xposed/modules.list"
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bgcngm:
That's your problem... Xposed framework incorrectly pre-installed. Go to Xposed installer, remove framework completely and reboot, re-install it and reboot, enable the modules and reboot.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kielkiam:
Thank you for your reply.

I didn't install xposed: I assumed xposed was integrated in v3 rom, because GravityBox was integrated .........

but obviously there is something I do not understand :o

I'll apply your suggestion
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bgcngm:
Now there is something that I don't understand... You referred that you have "jiayu g3 with xposed framework and gravitybox pre-installed" and now you mention V987 V3.0 ROM. :confused:

In fact, V3.0 ROM comes with GravityBox integrated, not the Xposed installer. Without the installer, you can't load other modules and if you want to do so, you have to apply the procedure that I described previously.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kielkiam:
I am so sorry.

I see that my first post wasn' t very clear :o

I said that I have "also" a jiayu g3 with xposed and gravitybox pre-installed and there are xposed settings where I can enable others modules.

So I thought that ( in my zte v987) the xposed settings would be present also in your v3 ROM ( for zte v987), with xposed and gravitybox pre-installed.

I didn't find them so I installed xposed installer only to enable modules (without manager xposed framework) but I had the errors I wrote in my first post.

(this for me is strange because I' m not expert)

Of course, following your indications, now all is ok.

Excuse me if my not clear words (...and bad English) have made you waste time

:o:o
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bgcngm:
No need to be sorry. Just wanted to clear it up. ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kratos69:
Hi Bruno!

I put this post representing several HTCMania forum users. I am Spanish forum coordinator.

We are suffering spontaneous power off with v3 RC2 ROM and the latest version of GravityBox.

We found another bug, Settings - Development - Limit processes.

When you restart the phone, it gets the default value.

A greeting and thanks for your work.:good:

On miui once and on lewa once, I had a phone freeze (black screen) when trying to wake phone in the morning

[Miscellaneous Android Development] f_speed:
Hi all, I have some problem that appears sometimes, and I dont know if is a common problem.

I have Bruno 3.0 and it works as a charm, all perfect except for a few things:

-Each time you start the phone displays "Android is updating applications" Bruno told me, that this is normal and no big deal, OK I agree :good:

-When I go to bed and I program the phone to turn on automatically at 7:30 almost never does, does not turn on, and when it does is because I have set the alarm at 8:00am, then it boots up in alarm clock mode and if disable the alarm I can start up the phone. Little issue, not important

The BIG problem is that occasionally the alarm wakes me and when I try to stop the alarm, I can't!!!! because the phone in showing a black screen with an infinite bootloop with the message "Android is updating applications" and I can't turn off the alarm and can't turn on the phone too, the only solution is to remove the battery , this situation is very uncomfortable

Any similar case??? Bruno, any idea of what may be happeing?

By the way, you have planned to release a 4.0 ? (you can include here the gps addons, for correct geolocation with 3g inside home and the endomondo fix too, etc)

Best Regards!!!!

PD: After all, I think this is the best ROM for our ZTE :good:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zperetz:
Guys, I have a very strange situation. My phone started to show me error like "you have 0.9Mb (or less) of internal memory". I have extended memory to 2.7Gb and in System settings it shows that half of my memory is free. But then in very short period I see "Repository error" which disappears only after I delete some software. What it can be? Bad memory extension? I thought if it's 2.7Gb in the system info it should be like this without cheating. Does anyone can advise? :confused:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ndouchin:
It's not advised to format with 2.7 gb, , with android 4.2 rom. I have made that mistake (phone can't start correctly), and format with 2.5 GB. My phone is good now.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zperetz:
Ok, moved to 2.5Gb. Let's see what will happen with storage. However, repository error still exists. Maybe this is due to foreign network I'm on now, don't know. :rolleyes:

Hello Bruno

just want to disable the notification tone when the USB cable is plugged in to the phone. Anyone know how to do this?

[Miscellaneous Android Development] alexw801:
Hi Bruno, we buy more and more V967S because it is a good price/value and you told to issue a good ROM for this phone. Any news?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bgcngm:
I tried porting my latest custom ROM for V987 into V967S, but there were some sdcard related issues. As I don't have any V967S phone to test, it is really painful to make it work, so I gave up. As far as I know there are already good custom ROMs for it anyway.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] alexw801:
Thanks. But V967S is so cheap now, half price of V987. And looks like V987, some pixels less and the camera is not so good. The same stability, battery, GPS, etc.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] surfturtle:
I have both V987 and V967S, and yes V967S is the best model for such low price ($126). Love Bruno's V987 ROM however V967S owners have another option, thee MaxFlavour ROM here on XDA
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zperetz:
Looks like repository error came with previous GB. No error after update 2.6.0 so far.

Upd: no, GB update is not helping. Bruno, any ideas how to log what's wrong?

Upd2: found out the software generated this error. No problems right now.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bgcngm:
Which app was causing that problem? :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zperetz:
I believe you will never see it :) it's Balance BY, which gets mobile and other accounts information to widget. Had to delete and reinstall, and the problem has gone.
