[Miscellaneous Android Development] DreamD1:
OMG!:victory: And at last got the permission to post in this section.

Installed the Stock ROM De-Odexed, Zipaligned rooted one.

Its awesome.

Thanks somberi for your continued effort.:p

After installing this ROM I have got the phone storage & internal storage got swapped.

So I can install all my apps in 2gb phone storage.

Expecting so much more from the only developer :cowboy: available for Gionee Dream D1.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ganesh Kumar:
@ Dream D1 ..Even same thing for me today i got permission to post in this thread...

somberi --Thanks for your work...:o:o:o

I rooted my dream d1 succesfully but windows is not detecting phone when it is switched off mode:confused::confused::confused:...

I installed your drivers properly then also facing prob to flash CWM..

I'm using windows 7 32 bit laptop..can you please help me to flash CWM.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] harsha13bm:
you must install vcom drivers so that your device will detect even after switched off
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mihirf2003:
yes. u need to install vcom drivers to detect the phone. The link for vcom drivers is mentioned in the thread somewhere. Just follow the link and procedure and voila... you are done...

Well In Bangladesh this phone is rebranded as walton primo x1. And walton also has released a stock firmware for the phone. They are faster than Gionee OMG :eek:

Edit: And here is the link ;)

[Miscellaneous Android Development] somberi:
Do you have the Dream D1 or the Primo X1?

I shall try the rom at the walton forum. harsha13bm also gave me this info on walton mobiles. Thanks guys.

Completely occupied at work. On a 4 day vacation starting this Friday. :cool:

Will keep ya posted on any progress. But nothing substantial as of now. :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DreamD1:
Since walton has officially published the source code, we can use their ROM & kernels.

Is't it?:confused:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] musfiqus:
No I don't have the device. I saw in a facebook group, people successfully flashed it into D1 :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] somberi:
Will have to check, at work now and I do not have access to any resources.

Please share here the link to the kernel source code, if you are able to find it. Thanks. :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ganesh Kumar:
Thanks ...I have successfully flashed CWM recovery....

Any luck with the ports?

Best I got was to boot a MIUIv5. But the Xiaomi Framework app kept crashing, not allowing me to proceed with using the phone. Looking at the logs, libandroid_runtime.so was in the trace. Porting MIUIv5 has been a PITA.

PS: Thanks for sharing the stock ROM. :cowboy:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] RickyGoldsmith:
We kinda got a custom MIUI v5 Build to work. Well almost everything to work. The only major blocker is Sound.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] somberi:
Great news to hear after a great vacation :D :good: :highfive:

[MENTION=3094817]RickyGoldsmith[/MENTION] Great job done mate. You could start a new thread and share the MIUI ROM, we shall get the development thread started there. :good: Thanks for all the effort.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] RickyGoldsmith:
Done. here.. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2300818

It has download link to the ROM. I've decoupled the kernel. So hopefully there shouldn't be any violations.

Please have a look. I haven't had much luck in fixing the sound issue.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ganesh Kumar:

[Miscellaneous Android Development] trip007in:
Does anyone know if this recovery would work with the Gionee E3? I have used the rooting guide for rooting the phone, but not sure about the differences in the components of the two phones and the difference in the ROM/ kernel. Or if you know about any specific forum/ thread about gionee E3 custom recovery, please guide me. Sorry for spamming this thread.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] somberi:
I'm not sure, It always better to port/create your own CWM recovery for the device from the stock recovery. Hope you are familiar using MTKDroid and SPFlash tools, there are many tutorials available on XDA and other chinese forums on creating/porting CWM recoveries.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DreamD1:
[MENTION=2674277]somberi[/MENTION] when can we expect a stable full ROM from you.

so please check it and progress the development to build new n new rom.

Thanks:good:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] somberi:
uploading the stock based rooted rom.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] debasish497:
Hi, I installed and checked.

The tightly integrated Gionee settings with the launcher crashes the wallpaper change from the settings->display->wallpaper

Overall good, but few FCs here and there like described above.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DreamD1:
[MENTION=2674277]somberi[/MENTION] Any difference between this & the provious one u uploaded.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] somberi:
Yes. It is an attempted mashup of Walton Primo-X1 and Dream_D1.

Will also upload the stock deodexed GiONEE Dream_D1 ROM soon with root and busybox. (Migrating to copy cloud)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] debasish497:
The reason being I don't like the stock ROM is the launcher and its strict integration with settings/camera/lock screen etc. If we're able to remove those dependencies and be able to port AOSP launcher, it would be great.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] somberi:
Actually Walton Primo-X1's Launcher is a derivative of the Android stock launcher. Will upload a flashable zip to replace the launcher. To see if thats better than what we have now.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] debasish497:
In this case, what are you planning to use?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tROubLemE:

This phone is currently my daily driver, so I need a perfect working phone, thats why I keep fiddling with the stock rom to get the best out of it. :D

@somberi In the Hybrid stock ROM found the following issues:

1. Launcher settings can't be changed. (same as in X1, so Installed Smart launcher as I am having many applications, which sorts the apps by default)

2. In messages thread view texts are difficult to read, as a result of light blue background & colour texts.

Features would love to have:

1. Integrating Google keyboard as the main keyboard(as after every restart I have to select Google keyboard)

2. Android 4.2 (mainly for the 360 camera shot) :p
[Miscellaneous Android Development] somberi:
It is the default Android launcher, that you get in Nexus and AOSP devices. No settings.

I use the default Mms.apk from AOSP, if that is fine with everyone here, I shall integrate that.

Google keyboard can be integrated in the next revision.

As far as 4.2 is concerned, i'm trying out various ports, but nothing has materialized yet. :(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DreamD1:
Good luck.:good:

Also pls. provide smaller updates as update.zip, so that we don't need to download the 400MB once again.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ganesh Kumar:
any progress on 4.2 version......:confused::confused::confused:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] debasish497:
Mate, which version of apktool you are using to decompile apks? I was planning to clean the systemUI.apk off the GiONEE dependencies. My version(1.5.2) was always throwing some errors. All other setup like java etc are working fine.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] debasish497:
Able to decompile now.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DreamD1:
Gionee Elife E3 has received an OTA update, before some days.

Can any one in stock ROM, check if we have got any update too?

I am currently in Hybrid stock ROM of X1 & D1 and I am getting FC while opening system updates.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] debasish497:
At least update availability can be seen right? It might prevent getting it installed. :fingers-crossed:

Can you send a mail to Gionee care and ask about any comments about Dream D1 OTA Update availability..

I cannot access my private mail from here(office pc), and I am having no net at my mobile. :silly:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ganesh Kumar:
Ya i sent a mail regarding this..Even I called to Gionee China customer care number (India customer care number is not available) through my office phone which has international call access :D:D:D ..but they told to send message to 008013840078015 but I don't have message access in my office phone:(:(:(...will try to ask Kernal source & OTA 4.2 update:D:D:D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] debasish497:
Try that, I have asked their India care centre from the gionee website, but got no concrete assurance.

It is good to see so many people are making noise about Gionee Dream D1.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tROubLemE:
Even I mailed the GIONEE India service centre regarding 4.2 update regarding which they said it ain't available at the current moment... :/

Can't any of you awesome developers develop a 4.2 ROM for our Dream D1? Its an awesome phone but only one thing sucks about it that there is no 4.2 update.... :/

PLZZZ do something respected developers!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] babamanan:
Gionee is also one of the cheap Chinese brand which likes to throw their products without any support. I think they already have provided their best and tweaked software and pls don't compare them with reputed brands like samsung etc....

These companies don't care for quality but just the quantity. Yes they are cheap in price but again u'll have to live with these craps.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] RickyGoldsmith:
This is a lame statement. Or perhaps you don't know what you are talking.

I've overall liked the device. They did deliver me a solid quality hardware. For other users, who've had issues with the phone, GiONEE has provided them warranty services, as promised.

As for the android software, they never promised an upgrade, or a spiffy patch update. For any hw manufacturer, providing updates is like killing their own sales opportunity. You paid for what was advertised on the box, nothing more.

I find GiONEE to be far better than Sony. I am sure you have no idea what Sony did to its customers.

Just because a brand is Chinese, doesn't make it cheap. Some of the world's biggest brands are from China, FYI.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mihirf2003:
I completely agree with you... the phone hardware is excellent. no issues with it. and regarding the updates, even top phone brands do not provide newer versions to old phones. This hampers their sales. Who would buy a new phone when u have everything in the old phone. so its unfair to criticize someone before experiencing it.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] debasish497:
They are providing OTA updates for their Other Device Elife E3. Dream D1 was first released in the 3rd Quarter of 2012 with Android 4.04 in China. Dream D1 was only updated with Jelly Bean early this year, Jan 2013.

They have never promised that thay will provide the updates. Since they are a truebreed Chinese HW manufacturer, they are more concerned in marketing more devices rather than going on releasing updates over for only one.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] RickyGoldsmith:
MediaTek

To sum up this conversation, it should be worth to mention that the core of the problem with ROM porting, lies because of the lack of sources for the framework

And this scarcity is caused by MediaTek. Please see post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=42886036&postcount=74

There are people trying to port CM to this family of devices, but without the source for the framework it is very difficult.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DreamD1:
Walton Primo X1 has released a update today ,

But its only a performance improvement update,

Its the same 4.1.2, check the facebook group page of "Dream D1 development"

[Miscellaneous Android Development] babamanan:
how can u compare GIONEE with SONY , I do agree with some extend that with the low price but I don't think that they have got R&D as responsible as of Sony or samsung.

Branded are taking more margins but still they r more responsible and spend more time before launching a new model. Chinese emphasises more on low budget than the quality. They just throw new models without up gradation of old ones. This dream D1 uses same amoled display of nexus prime i9250 but even after having more PPI it still can't be as batter as of i9250, may be coz of less software support or options.

---------- Post added at 05:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:53 PM ----------

Sorry buddy. I didn't see your post. Yes, no more conversation on this topic.

Coming back to development, do you have any experience with TWRP ? I tried porting it once, but failed. Haven't tried again. Our friends with MMX A116 have TWRP working on their device.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] somberi:
Haven't tried it. Will give it a try :)

Is there an app like ROM Manager that supports TWRP?? I know that ROM Manager has added support for TWRP but heard some things are broken.

Back-up->Wipe->Install Multiple Zips feature of ROM Manager with CWM is a WIN. :good: I'm not sure if it works with TWRP. :confused:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] RickyGoldsmith:
From what I know, TWRP has a touch interface. So no more button pressing in Recovery Mode. That was one reason why I was motivated in the first place.

The other important feature I recollect is that you can take fine-grained backups.

The project page for TWRP is here.

Hey XDA,

I come here today seeking wisdom from the gods.

So a while back I rooted and flashed my mums phone:

Info

Samsung Galaxy S 3 - I9300 - UK - Orange

did all the usual CF Root with Odin etc.

now my question is, I recently noticed Samsung released stock 4.1.2 roms which I would like to put on there.

The thing is, I am abit confused as to which rom to go to as her contract is Orange, but 1-2 months the carrier changed to EE.

So which firmware so I go EE based? Orange based? ..?

Thanks for any feedback.

Either is the answer depends what you want .

A stock UK Samsung rom .

A Orange rom .

A T Mobile rom .

secondly you mean they are ALL compatible in simple terms?

OK so I heard some rumors about a jellybean update to 4.3 soon. I really don't want to lose all my data by flashing a stock image once it comes out. Is there a way to relock the boot loader without losing data? And if not is there a way to backup all my data and restore it afterwards. I tried using wugs toolkit to do this but the problem is it only backs up the main user and not the secondary ones. Any suggestions would be appreciated thank you.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cowabunga:
I believe unlocking/locking the boot loader will in fact wipe all data. So you'd have to manually handle the backup/restore if you don't want to lose the data.

I'd try something like TB to backup and restore. I usually start from scratch again as I've read restoring app data can cause issue under certain circumstances. YMMV...
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abdel12345:
OK I guess I'll just do that but doesn't locking the boot loader wipe "sd card" data as well? So would I have to save my tb files to a CPU?
