This happened only the first time I tried. Now I do all the steps with the device manager open, and nothing changes. It doesn't recognize it. Do I need to turn the phone on after I put the battery or leave it off? Thanks

Ok, I did managed re-install the driver (turned the phone on and connected it, deleted the adb driver, turned the phone off, connected and when asked for mtk preloader pointed it to the mtk preloader driver that came with the CWM version for the THL). Now I see the device manager re-scanning for devices every time I connect the phone, but I don't see any MTK Preloader device in the device manager, windows doesn't ask for new hardware and SPFlash still does nothing.

Keep up the good work. Can't wait for my thl w100 to get here.

SGX544MP at 286Mhz or 156Mhz, how can we know for sure what GPU does our phone have?

How close are we to the possibility of overclocking the GPU?

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Uri997:
Is there a way we can improve the camera quality? It's unreasonable that 8MP camera will generate ±900K images!

Do you have a way to fix it?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Uri997:
Please pay attention that many companies do that(also AMD,Intel etc..). But that is due to the fact that some chips tape-out in higher quality then others.( can be because they were in the middle or on the edges of the wafer during production of the silicone).

So if you'll automatically overclock the cpu, it might cause some heating/crashing issues on the lower lever chips.

Take it into consideration when you do the overclocking!

Also, do you plan on improving the camera quality? It's a 8MP camera that outputs ±900K jpeg files. So the images are really crappy.

Thanks!.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] rr565:
just use lgcamera app, quality of photos is better and it records video also in better quality.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Uri997:
The image size is bigger, but if you'll compare the output image you'll see the stock camera is actually better. (but still crappy).

to install CWM just follow the screenshots included into cwm package.

You have to install it via Smart Phone Flash Tool (included into the package)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] xtremis2009:
You should leave the phone off, if I'm not mistaken... Anyways, the device showed up for me every time I unplug and replug it :) maybe you should try to reboot the computer, first? Oh, I had to do a tweak on my Windows 8 x64 to be able to install the 64bit drivers O_o

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] foox2k:
Dude , just reflash the original 01/07/2013 Firmware , then install only the CWM listed here by RO.EDI not the boot.img that will screw the camera ok, once you installed CWM , you need to install this zip via CWM , CLICK HERE , now you have your phone rooted and with the camera working.

This procedure is for the cellphones that arrive with the stock 01/07/2013 Firmware , the oldest ones just use MOTOCHOPPER that in order to ROOT your phones.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] xtremis2009:
Yeah, on Win8 x64, to bypass the driver signing, you have to tweak a setting on boot time :( on Win7 x64, you can do it from inside windows itself...

By the way, does anyone know if the 130529 version of stock Rom is available somewhere? NeedRom only has 130504, 130516 and 13701... I'm considering reinstalling the stock Rom over Ro.EDI 1.1 and I want to put the one I have right now (130529)...

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] czlazybear:
so if I undestood well, then if I want to use his last ROM and dont lost the rear camera (original stock ROM in my phone is from 01.07.2013), the steps are:

1) root phone

2) download to the phone recovery.img by SP.Flash (not boot.img)

3) after reboot of phone to the CWM, update from ZIP file

4) update from external card

5) confirm the updated

6) after all, in phone will be his ROM with working rear camera

thats correct?

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] rusty2k0:
it appears newer devices (updated firmware) have different camera hardware. Ro.EDi attempted to get the new camera hardware to work with the patches he released. from other posters in the thread, who tested his patches, no release worked. In conclusion, no one has been able to flash RO.EDi roms including the latest Ro.Fusion on new hardware and have a working rear camera.

I have a newer ThLw100 with the new firmware. I will install the new RoM (Ro.Fusion) on the weekend and update with my findings.

A bit of a laugh really, him giving up so fast. I was planning on customizing my own rom for my THL w100 anyway, so I guess I'll get started lol. I have access to two THL w100s, one with the old hardware and one with the new hardware, so hopefully I can work out a camera fix.

Here's what I have planned:

Moving back to the original AOSP lock screen

A Screenshot button in the power menu

No Bloat!

Camera fix

Some Speed tweaks

Maybe a user-friendly fix for changing the gps.conf for your region

Integration with GravityBox

Maybe an option to add the "internal 2GB sd card" to the phone storage.

I also want to try and improve the quality of the camera, and maybe try and get it to record in H.264, but we'll see how that goes, it seems pretty challenging.

What does everyone think?

Hopefully I can get it all working properly, planning on starting tomorrow.

PS. I don't care about donations.

To bad that ro.edi has given up the rom development, but i understand him. Living in Portugal is extremely expensive, and the wages are very low, so working for a month with out any income, is hard, specially if people star making demands.

I'm a bit disapoited that he decided to kill the development but someone will start developing another rom, and they might be luckier than ro.edi, and get more support form the community.

Any way i can't wait for the next rom.

-

Where possible

, arrange for the conversion of the songs (in background) below 256 kbps to 320kbps

- During playback of songs / sounds make a soft frequency scaling to reduce noise and highlight the track

- It offers more powerful and closed bass

- Efficient even with stock headphones

- Improves a lot the audio call

- Enhance the speakers for playing music without headphones in high quality

Any chance of a stable rom with working native voip and good quality voip using one of the available clients like the perfect csip simple?

It's awful but true: jelly bean does not have any native voip capability or client itself and it is not possible to obtain good results with alternative clients. I made some attempts using wifi and the results were so poor there was no point in continuing the conversation. What a pity! TLC companies at the end have succeeded forcing google in eliminating voip?

Thanks for all your work

It seems 'spell checking' functions are not working on THL W100. I've tried both selecting french ('m french native) or english as system language, keyboard language, add-on dictionaries... it doesnt work. All the options are present and available in 'Language and input' menu but nothing happen when for example, I download an additional dictionary (have to hit refresh each time I open this menu, and whatever dict is/are downloaded and installed, options are gone next time the menu is opened). Anyway: when I write a message there is no suggestion at all, except contact names.

I've seen other user complaints in different forums for different devices... Perhaps is it a of Jelly Bean 4.2, or something occuring on specific devices as THL W100?

Any idea for fixing this in a future release, or through an add-on?

the mediatek itself chooses H.264 encoder when you choose HIGH in the video option, but when you select FINE it take MP4V (h263) encoder with ~30 Mbs. the video container is changed to .MP4 instead of 3GP!

I have the W100 and I am with your rom and I get this result with my mod- the strange thing about this 6589 chipset is that we have no control on Bit-rate and FPS - try LGCAMERA and see no matter what you select- the camera files choose the bit-rate and FPS and it depends on the lighting and the scenes you are filming.

If this is your manners - there is no good using your "Modded" rom - sorry.

Some (minor) malfunctions

Hi phenomenalxp,

I've just installed your THL W100 mod-rom, and all seems very accurate...

CWM recovery v6.0.3.2 works great as I've been able to get back all mys apps and parameters using 'advenced restore' (saved a lot of time),

the minor dysfunctions I've identified are still present, e.g.:

- 'spell checking' functions are not working ad I've indicated in a previous post,

- 'Wi-fi hotspot' options are available in 'Tethering & portable hotspot' menu. You can Set-up Wi-fi hotspot (SSID, Password, etc.) and when activated, any device around can connect to THL W100 through Wi-fi, but... no routing (means, no Internet connexion through 3G/data). The only tethering option that works, is USB cable connexion (in 'Wireless & networks' menu, the 4th option 'USB Internet' appear in grey and can't be changed...

I've looked in /system/etc but not been able to identify anything usable to fix these problems.

- test menu (on/off button + Vol- at start) is in chinese (ok, who care?), this menu seems stored in 'factory.ini' file but 'Google translate' is no help. I'll try some options manualy and note what happen trying to 'mod' factory.ini...

Your moded rom include a lot of third party apps (battery booster already propose an update...). I don't know if it's complex (I've never cooked/mod Android system) but I guess it would be great to offer a naked version (I mean without third party apps).

Don't take it the wrong way 'cause, YOUR MAKING AN EXTREMELY GOOD AND USEFULL JOB
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] ik8vwa:
I agree, a naked rom like the original one would be great but with native voip activated! I don't know if you guys did see it, but in the THL there is no native sip voip client and this makes me absolutely mad! They also do not support external apps like the beautiful csip simple so accordind to someone it's google's fault.

Do you have the native voip client on your phone??????

Please let me know.

If possible, dear modder, would you please produce a patch that can abilitate the native voip on this device? I mean the voip client that is embedded in ALL android versions until the 4.1 and that in the thl rom has disappeared.
