Hi:

I'm new in this phone, but not with chinese phones :)

I love lewa rom and I downloaded from 4pda.net latest lewa (LewaOS5_10.01.14.zip) but after installed it, It seems not to be rooted. Is there any way of doing this?

Thank you.
[Android General] plahoo83:
It is rooted, but you need activate root in security manager.

I'll try this!

Thank you.

Another question please, I saw a "Dark theme" for this new Lewa rom. Could someone provide a link for downloading the theme? I'm not registered in the forum and my "russian" it's a little bit rusty ;)

Thanks again!
[Android General] Sargos76:
you can always run framaroot 1.6.0 and root it again
[Android General] layup23:
I have a question for the rom developers( more of a request) - is it possible to port the rom from HTC, please ? I saw the topic for cubot one and a developer there posted the HTC rom(with the sense launcher and all).

If that would be possible for our device I would be very happy to flash it!

Thanks!
[Android General] miljenko:
It can be sense like, but it is impossible to have real sense rom on any mtk devices. If htc make mtk based phone, then it can be tried. Framework is too complicated and many dependent processes are running in the background.
[Android General] Sargos76:
hi miljenko all ok? the rom from s4 will you upload in a near future?
[Android General] miljenko:
S4 rom have some kind of proximity sensor problem. Sensor is working and it is initialized properly but during call screen stays on. Currently I need my phone and no testing can be done, and because of this specific bug virtual device is useless.

What you think about this http://lufile.wordpress.com/2014/01/17/screenshot-vicksi-rom/

If you like it and can port it
[Android General] Sargos76:
wow :) looks promising bring it on please, will you launch a v2 of xperia port? beside the missing shortcuts of the apps on sd card and and the walkman doesn't recognize the files on sd card the rom is great and the musics with walkman player sound like hell :) we users of your ports/software and i think i speak for all, thank you for your time and dedication, thanks miljenko
[Android General] layup23:
Oh yeah that looks awesome! A port would be great if you can! Kinda looks like an HTC rom :D

Later edit///this is the sense rom I was talking about http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=49483487&postcount=329

This is only sense icons over touchwiz launcher.

Baseband

Miljenko Sorry, I lost my baseband and IMEI, you could enter a zip to flash to restore my W200 THL. I would be infinitely grateful.

Thank you very much:fingers-crossed:
[Android General] Sargos76:
franco go to needrom.com
[Android General] franco monti:
I have already tried to download the ROM and the firmware. The firmware flash tools 130 817 sp with me by mistake FAT ChECSuM ini. Thl has only lost imei and baseband. You can only flash userdata_nvram? I did not back up this zip.

thanks
[Android General] Sargos76:
download the stock rom 130815,there is the scatter file,use flash tools and flash the phone it will solve your problem :D
[Android General] franco monti:
Where can I find the stock rom 130 815? In nnedrom there is Ludoo but go flashed with CMW.Mi can indicate the proper link to download it?

thanks
[Android General] Sargos76:
needrom its the first one Thl W200 stock rom 130703 once you flashed this one from recovery you upgrade to the one you want via cwm,got it?
[Android General] franco monti:
OK try again ... I hope spflashtools work for me. I will update you soon.

Thanks again:)
[Android General] Sargos76:
ok good luck

p. s: on Thl website you have all the stock roms
[Android General] RobboW:
Stock ROMs at THL site? News to me, I can't see any.

Needrom has an old stock ROM.

Guys, are any of the ported ROMs bug free? Or, which is least buggy and what issues does it have?

I'm going to backup my son's phone and flash it. Have to do all the re-partitioning, gravitybox and all that stuff too.

I have downloaded the latest Zound ROM in case it's good.

If that doesn't work out, I'll flash it to Ludoo 130815 like mine and do all the mods. Mine runs better than his is running on stock ROM with very minor mods.
[Android General] Sargos76:
yeah look for it on the bottom of news page, all ports have bugs :)
[Android General] RobboW:
I think I'll just stick with 130815 then.

I just copied a modded bootanimation and audio into my phone and it actually works, looks nice, sounds better. Anyone know where the fixed splash screen pic is in system that shows before the animation plays?
[Android General] Sargos76:
130817 zound v2 fix works flawlessly :)
[Android General] franco monti:
Hello Sargos. My W200 THL is running again.

Thank you again. However, the stock rom is full of bug 130703 for display.Now my baseband is the original 130 815. See you soon
[Android General] Sargos76:
hi franco, glad to ear that your W200 is ok, go to needrom download the 130817 zound v2 fix and upgrade is easy, via recovery do all the wipes and upgrade
[Android General] Ysabelkid:
This is Kitkat 4.4.1 - will be interesting to see how it runs on the dual-sim. :)
[Android General] miljenko:
No it is 4.2.1, it is not important what he is writing. No KitKat for MTK for now. Rom is ported and is on testing. It is hardly modified by Indonesian developer and without indonesian language speaking helper this is very hard to have translated.
[Android General] Sargos76:
hi miljenko all ok? the port we spoke yesterday will you do it?
[Android General] miljenko:
Sorry I have sent you PM this morning but I just realized that it was not sent. Expect PM in a few seconds.
[Android General] RobboW:
I think I'll flash my son's W200 to zound and try it out. What size partition does it run for apps?
[Android General] Sargos76:
thanks miljenko, for work and dedication
[Android General] Sargos76:
use meteos app i used the 5gb option
[Android General] RobboW:
So I treat zound as stock ROM, install xposed, gravitybox and other modules. That works for me.
[Android General] miljenko:
Xperia Port V2 is finished and uploading. RobboW maybe you should give it a try. Fast and rock stable
[Android General] RobboW:
Might have a look :)

This is for my son though. He doesn't care what it looks like as long as it's reliable and everything works.
[Android General] Sargos76:
you're the man, thanks for this great roms, you will upload here or on needrom?
[Android General] RobboW:
I held off flashing the phone, went kayaking and swimming in the lake instead :p but Xperia is not on Needrom yet so I'll try Zound first.

Hey guys, have you seen this yet?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2581527

I'm going to try it.

Edit:

Installed and re-partitioned Zound, setting it up. This proves to me that this ROM works with older screens as ours are the old ones :)

Edit:

Found a problem in this ROM, it has standard email and exchange apk removed. This breaks compatability for people using a Microsoft Exchange account for work (as I do). Had to manually install them. So far, haven't managed to get Xperia keyboard working in it. May have to go to Touchpal. Will see what my son thinks of that. He may be happy on Google keyboard.

Nice ROM :P
[Android General] TOR11:

I know that this phone has a design issue with low backlight buttons. I've just asked and don't know why it seems so funny for you?

Wysłane z mojego W200 za pomocą Tapatalk 2
[Android General] Sargos76:
because the buttons doesn't move and for shure you now were they are, the important is for the roml/software to work fine and besides the the shortcuts from apps that desapear on reboot and the walkman doesn't recognize the music files on sd card the rom works great, doesn't seem so important the buttons back light, it's more a estetic matter
[Android General] miljenko:
XperiaC ROM V2

CHANGELOG V2

- Flashable CWM/TWRP zip

- Busybox enabled

- init.d enabled

- Framework cleaned, some unused files and drivers deleted

- Rooted

- Software updated, should fix Walkman problem

- Zipalign APKs

- GAPPS included

- Deodex APP and Framework

- etc.

Changes are not revolution, but definitely are evolution. ROM is faster and lighter. I have removed a lot of software which I have included in the first version. Also changed boot animation and removed Chinese shutdown animation from previous version.

Many people asked about capacitive buttons backlight It is not a problem to turn on lights, but since XperiaC doesnt have them there is no procedure to turn it of. I don't have enough knowledge to implement such procedure into ROM (if somebody know how to do it, I will be more than happy to implement). There is work arround, please use

KEYBOARD BACKLIGHT CONTROLLER

One thing that was pissing me of in V1 was changing network mode, too many steps to make that. On stock ROM there is perfect software for this task called TOGGLE2g but is is incompatible with Xperia and many other OEM ROMs. OK, found solution and now we have simple network tasker incorporated within XperiaC V2 ROM.

I did many other minor mods and fixes, updated sony apps, added Sony Motion shot app, etc

All Sony widgets are working without any problem.

[Android General] djport1973:
Miljenko good work. So far so good
[Android General] Sargos76:
Apps on sd card still missing on shortcuts after reboot :) keep them on internal, solved, rom is working 100% thanks miljenko
[Android General] RobboW:
Would Meteos re-partitioning work with this?

If so, that is not an issue at all.

Must be a simple wrong name link to external SD in the ROM somewhere. Maybe it's called something else in a Sony?
[Android General] Matticus_Finch:
Mine has a 5gb partition and seems to be working fine so far, installed new Xperia a few hours ago.

When I first ran Titanium it told me I wasn't rooted any more but simply ran framaroot again.

So far have tried stock, Zound 1.5 - great but chewed battery, and Note 3 port version 1 which is what I have been using until today.

Just do a full nandroid backup and install it if you want to try it out.

Thank you miljenko for all your work on these roms.
[Android General] RobboW:
Got Zound 2 mostly sorted on my son's phone now. Nice ROM so far. Probably use it on mine when I re-flash, but will try Xperia first, just to see what it's like.
[Android General] layup23:
From what I read on 4pda there's also a zound 2.5. Don't know what the change log is, it's not posted. If you try it out please tell us if you see any differences.

Btw Robbow you might also want to flash the small zip that zound posted a while back, reduces the drain of the battery while the wifi is on
[Android General] Stenlius:
I am with zound 2.5 since this morning - so far working fast and light RAM usage. Stripped almost everything, I added exchange services and email apks from KitKat and got my work email running.
[Android General] Sargos76:
Theres no such 2.5, what zound as launched was zound v2 fix and works great was using it before i changed to xperia v2 wich i prefer music sound like hell with Walkman player :)
[Android General] layup23:
4pda says otherwise, see the pic attached
[Android General] Sargos76:

I'm not sure if this is the same as zound fix 3, I'm on the phone now but when I get to my pc I can check to see if there's any difference in the size of the rom
[Android General] Sargos76:
the v2 fix was posted on 07/01/2014 i will try in a near future and give a report,i was seeing the link you give me and it seems this rom is only russian,can you confirm if it is multi?for me english is ok but if it has portuguese better
[Android General] layup23:
From what I can see it says that Russian is set as default but it also has English and a few other languages. If it's set as default it means that when you first boot the device you can just chose another language without any problem.

I'm not sure but I think you can get Portuguese by using more 2 locale app.
[Android General] RobboW:
I thought the issues were with 1.5?

I'm not on 4pda so unless it's uploaded to needrom, I'll never see it.

If you want great sound, you cannot beat the combination of Neutron music player or PowerAmp (google play) and Viper AudioFX mod. Nothing else will sound as good.

We run this on our phones. Don't need Xperia software for that.

Runs great with PowerAmp, but Neutron sounds that bit better. The parametric equalisation is the key. Setup takes time but worth it.

PowerAmp is easier to use though. My son has PowerAmp and I have Neutron.

On needrom we have the zound v2 fix 3 and RobboW i prefer to be a devoloper and help the ones who gives us this software, so i use 2 or 3 roms per week :)
[Android General] RobboW:
If my phone were a spare I'd try them, but it's my only phone so must be stable and reliable.

Did you check out Viper? It's awesome!
[Android General] Stenlius:
I'm using this phone since 05.08 and it's great! Camera is 8 mpix and interpolates to 12 mpix, if you prefer it. Overall the picture quality is very decent, the sound on good headphones is very nice & crisp and the phone is fast.

Just searching for some CWM/TWRP recovery to flash and start deep customizing after backup. :)
[Android General] ludoo:
Here is an oldish version of CWM autogenerated with MTK Droid Tools, it's working fine on mine. Flash it with SP Flash Tool.
[Android General] djport1973:
You can put a photo
[Android General] ludoo:
A photo of what? It's 5.x.x CWM.
[Android General] RobboW:
If we use SP flash tools to install CWM, is that still keeping stock firmware? If so, I assume we can then flash whatever firmware we like, including stock, so can experiment a bit.

I had a look in the downloaded stock firmware. There is a recovery in there already, but I have not tried to reboot mine to recovery to check it out yet. Is there a real need for CWM?
[Android General] djport1973:
Ok.controls that you drive cwm.Sorry for my english
[Android General] ludoo:
Stock recovery can be accessed, but it's severely limited and does not do much (I tried a data backup and it did not work). You can flash the recovery image above from SP Flash Tool, just load the scatter file, uncheck all, check recovery and choose the new recovery. System/data/etc will stay untouched only the recovery will be flashed.

Another way is through adb, get a root shell, then (having put the recovery img on the sd card)

dd if=/sdcard/w200_recovery_4pda.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0 bs=4096 seek=10112

It's a regular CWM in English, there's a million screenshots around if you want to check how it is...
[Android General] djport1973:
Ok.Thanks
[Android General] RobboW:
Sounds like this is a must have if we want to have a play. I googled CWM5 for images, it looks much like my stock recovery in my Samsung Galaxy W.

Does the phone need to be on and connected via USB with debugging on when using SP flash tools for this? I want to try it :p

I had a listen to the W200 with music in the car now that I found my problem, it's much better now, good enough for me. My Sammy still sounds better though, just saying....

I can't access an Android equaliser on the Sammy (Gingerbread 2.3.6) but I'm sure there is EQ in it, a well thought out and implemented, fixed system component. No adjustments, but once I run another decent music app like Poweramp, it really shines.
[Android General] ludoo:
You need SP Flash Tools the MTK VCOM drivers, scatter file for our phone, then the phone must be turned on with SPFT active. There's a thread on SPFT here on xda with links and instructions.

I already have USB drivers from using other Android devices on the PC and was able to access the phone on my PC when doing the .so mod, have downloaded SPFT, CWM and firmware. The firmware has a scatter file in there.

It looks good .
[Android General] lmmerono:
Yes, but unchecking everything but the recovery box and clicked on the text "Recovery" you stand in the folder where you put the recovery w200

OK?:D

PD is going great so far.
[Android General] RobboW:
Change of plans and decided to try this tonight, it's in process now but nothing seems to be happening, options greyed out in SPFT once I clicked "Download". How long does it normally take? I'm now concerned it will brick.

I'm not sure about having the phone on whilst it tries to write to it. The thread of instructions was a different phone but was clear about having the phone off.

Down the bottom of SPFT it says searching and shows 0 data/data rate and 0 seconds.
[Android General] ludoo:
I'd flash the recovery via adb in a root shell, much much easier, same result (unless you mistype the command in which case weird things might happen). :)

dd if=/sdcard/w200_recovery_4pda.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0 bs=4096 seek=10112
[Android General] RobboW:
That's beyond my experience. ADB in a root shell?

I've used SPFT to flash my galaxy firmware before, but not recovery. What mode should the phone be in if it's on and connected to PC?

Also, if it just sits there and doesn't progress, can I click "stop" and not brick it.....
[Android General] ludoo:
adb shell
su
*** enter command from above post ***

Anyway, bricking these phones is very hard, in case something goes wrong just reflash the whole ROM from SPFT.
[Android General] RobboW:
What about the mode the phone is in when connected to PC and using SPFT?

I got tired of waiting so clicked "stop". It still boots. Also had a look at stock recovery.
[Android General] ludoo:
You need the MTK VCOM drivers, the phone must be turned off with its battery removed. Click on Download in SPFT, reinsert battery without turning on, connect phone. It should be picked up by SPFT, the first time you do it WIndows will prompt you for the VCOM drivers.
[Android General] Sargos76:
I will check later and give you a feed back, rocket player is very good too
[Android General] RobboW:
I remove the stock player and soundFX apps from system.

Viper audio is great because it has sepparate settings for headset, phone speaker and bluetooth.

First, make sure there are no enhancements turned on, like in the phone audio settings.

You set all enhancements off in your music app, play your favourite test track and set viper as best as possible, then play the test track again and tweak the audio in the music app. This way, audio from other sources sounds as good as possible, not just MP3 tracks.

I set my phone speaker to the viper firequaliser preset of voice enhance so calls via speaker are better.

What was the Zound V2 patch for?

My son's phone was doing fine for battery today. He had wifi on too. I just applied the patch anyway, but his only complaint was it had some sluggishness. I had it so modded up, lol, lots of Xposed modules and stuff.

Pared it down a bit for him, running better now. Even set his gmail account in the email app and got rid of gmail app so it's not running two mail clients at once.
[Android General] Sargos76:

[Android General] RobboW:
Just installed Zound 2.5, first boot.

3Gb app space, came up on English. Looks same as Zound 2.
[Android General] Sargos76:
I like the rom and it's stable, which have you installed RobboW? Zound v2 fix3? It's available on needrom, have you tested this last version of Zound rom djport1973?
[Android General] RobboW:
Zound 2 fix 3 on my son's, Zound 2.5 on mine for a quick look.

Now doing Xperia C V2

Sim2 warning came up in Chinese, went to English after reboot.

Nice looking ROM, will have a play with it. Installing some apps, repartitioned to 1.5Gb app space from 3Gb, will see what mods can be done tomorrow, like Xposed, Viper audio etc.

Edit:

Re-partition has broken the system somehow, lost access to soft buttons below screen, so need to leave it at 3Gb app space and I also cannot flash back to my saved CWM backup from when it ran OK on Ludoo ROM. I think I will forget Xperia port and go back to Zound 2.5 and set up from the start. I don't trust the porting reliability and think the best reliability will come from modded stock ROMs that are closer to AOSP.

Can't even access the Xperia backup, hoping it hasn't wiped or corrupted my SD.....

Flashed Zound 2.5, came up at 1.5Gb app space, so I'm learning some things here the hard way with partitioning.

My Ludoo install was at the 3Gb app space size. Might try setting up Xperia C again, seeing as the partitioning is already done.

I'll update this post as I go, might be useful to someone, to prevent them stuffing their phone temporarily like I have.....

Looks like my SD is ok, but wiping data/cache and re-flashing a CWM backup does not restore your system if the partitioning is altered. It won't accept the files as the parameters have changed.

Re-flashed XperiaC V2 from the start again, see how it goes.
