Hi to everyone!

Just some updates: I replace the Sandra shots with the new pictures and textual information (I will put these picture back for the final release of this tool, it's still a beta). So I published as many info as I spotted out to let you know the hardware we are working on as well as to have benchmark for rom develop.

As far as I seen the latest firmware sports lower performance than first initial release and the active tasks/processes need almost 700Mb: of course these services will be removed to our costum ROM but they are deeply integrated into the system as well as the BBKLauncher (it needs 113Mb as permanent process).

I guess the device is working at half of its potential due to generic kernel, a bloatware set of applications and Chinese services we will never get them live.

Now I will update the main topic with these information looking forward for this long awaited first beta ROM.

Hi and welcome aboard Hustinchi,

1) it's stricted related ROM you are using on but 12Gb or more at least.

2) It's like raw jewel: great hardware, un-optimized software but for that, XDA is here

3) The hardware equipment and the awesome display, SHARP panel.

4) Maybe later for the first custom ROM

5) Sorry, what do you mean?

Hi,

my uncle just got me a xplay but I cant use 2g or 3g with it... Telephoning is possible.

Could it be that this is a non WCDMA Version? .....

Look at the lower backside of the phone... Is there written "vivo x510w" or "vivo x510t" ?

You have to activate" roaming" and put in the right "apn" (access point names) in settings -> network

Hi Raphi sorry for the delay but I was busy with work. Even with the program you gave me works. The steps I do are these:

"Power and volume down" the penguin appears in the upper left, I connect the phone to pc and SnaPea says: "Connecting to your Android Device, please wait...(I waited for about half an hour but no response)

I tried to get into recovery but doing so it hangs trying to connect to the phone. To go into recovery do so:

I write from cmd: "fastboot boot cofface_recovery_en.img" and go into recovery but the phone does not start any command do (whipe data/factory reset, wipe cache partition, ecc...)

I do not know what to do :(

Translated rom!

Hi, i have decompiled framework-res.apk (originally in rom stock) and add a strings.xml traduced in italian.

I sign the file with autosign but when i try to flash rom occoured in error of signature!

There is another CWM to flash in Vivo phone? This actual CWM are more limitated, don't have a skip signature verification and other futures.

Thank's a lot at all.

Hi

I'm trying to go back to se7en's rom from funtouch, but the cofface rot doesn't work. Its syas "rooting..." and noting happens.

Is there another way to flash the rom from the original recovery or any other way??
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SIRKRA:
This phone is amazing really, still today, it's just a shame almost noone still using this phone, I had an HTC M8 but reverted to this phone, for my ears they are equal in audio department but Vivo have more bass.

It would be awesome to be able to ROOT and find a way again together for Kitkat, i've seen peoples was able to root Kitkat on Xshot and Xplay 3s.

I'm not so much expert to know where to start or look at ( Bootloader, recovery ecc )

Anyway we have now OFFICIAL KITKAT rom: all links for

Hello SIRKRA,

I want to know how I can install the latest official rom (kitkat) ?

If my phone is already rooted with gapps, I will loose google play ?

If yes, is it possible to have it on this latest official rom ?

Thanks.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SIRKRA:
Hello! You're on 4.2 so You must

- download this firmware zip http://download1.vivo.com.cn/funtouch/vivoX510w/Funtouch_OS_2.0_PD1225_A_8.5.13.zip ( I suggest You to use a download manager addon like downthemall because is able to download much faster than the stock browser ),

- put the package in the main directory folder

- power off the phone and start again in recovery ( volume up+power ), no matter if stock or cwm one, for stock choose flash zip+apps from internal, for cmw choose flash zip

- wait to finish and You'll have latest official kitkat

- for google play just follow this and You're gtg! http://www.gizchina.com/2014/07/09/fix-google-services-vivo-xshot-vivo-xplay-3s/

- for now there is no root for kitkat as noone is working anymore on this phone, I'm trying to get in touch with someone that can help find a way to get root back
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] TheDahevos:
Thanks, I will try this asap.

Do I have to do a factory reset ?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SIRKRA:
You're welcome, I suggest to do the usual wipes before installing the new firmware, ( I personally did without and got no problems but anyway! ) remember that You'll have new fresh os after so better take backup ;)

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sev7en:
rubis, don't worry about the language... I mean the final release will come with the English, French, German and Italian support. You can also add the French support by using some 3th part tools for most base windows and work around the launcher by using a different one (Apex Launcher Pro, GO Launcher EX, Nova Launcher Prime, Smart Launcher Pro).

I think Nova is the best ^_^

Hi,

flashing on my Vivo and debugging for our custom. Here's some more information:

​

It's the first deodexed ROM then it should be faster and less memory hungry. Anyway it looks as PD1225_A_2.15 Beta.

P.S: Mirrors are coming too. atlantis if you have time, can you check the performance of this new ROM by using the pack above?

P.P.S: Just testing also this great looking Xperia Honami i1 / Z Ultra Launcher from ThilinaC, it could be a good alternative of built-in BBK (I love Nova anyway...) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2102397

Seve7n ha dicho que si dará soporte para el idioma español :laugh:

sev7en said whether it will give support to the Spanish language

The working plan:

-) Full Experience Vallina Release;

-) Rooted;

-) English/Italian/Spanish/German language support;

-) No Chinese assets at all;

-) Standard keyboard (we will try also the BB10 keyboard mod);

-) No extra stuff (Images, Sounds, Video);

-) Google Play market as default store

-) Hybrid faux kernel for CPU/GPU handling.

-) Tweaks for latest API 17 release.

-) Latest releases of any application as well as replacing the stock browser with rich-features Dolphin.

Always a great work sev7en! But.. Are you italian?!?! I looked Civitello Roveto on your

Weather widget!

Honami launcher is interesting but please leave BBk launcher on your rom cause I love his personalizations! :)

EDIT: I have no OTA for new beta that atlantis have told :( I don't know why :(

Any suggestions?

EDIT2: here is a screenshot of my homescreen using Vivo Themes like MIUI
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sev7en:
Hi to everyone,

busy day that day... but finally, xda ^^.

Thank you Quazacotl, I will look for the Russian porting later.

Hi iorya984, yes, I'm. The BBK Launcher is a good Windows Manager but it's hungry... I did some test and it needs almost 120Mb when active, 10/20 as sleeping process. The Sony's Launcher needs less resources but it isn't to easy to build directly into (atm it requires 3 reboot but we can install it directly, the author speak about the installation of a launcher as NOVA e.g.).

The beta release isn't available over OTA, just get it directly from the supplied links.

Now what's a pointed out today.

So... I looked into the hardware equipment because as you know performance aren't same as other Snapdragon 600 mobile phones (HTC One / Samsung S4 e.g.) and I have not found (exclusive of kernel recompiling), the option to bring it into line.

Look at these pictures:

​

Tonight I will look into but if it seems we have not a real Snapdragon 600 architecture... (I guess something like the AMD/nVidia GPU with less core/streaming processors or hw trunks).

When I heavily tweaked the 2.11.5 I got 22k from AnTuTu but it is the result of latest beta:

​

I also worked around the default browser: I don't like it and the Google Play comes with a lot of powerful (free) alternative. I tried Dolphin Browser Beta, Opera Beta (the silver version), ONE Browser, Chrome, Next Browser, Opera Mini and the fastest is Next but the best is Dolphin Browser Beta (ihmo).

​

About services and processes...

​

A first Vanilla ROM needs 550Mb of flash than 700/800 of usual packages :).
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Justinchi:
Thanks. I figured it out :)
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] darkhelion:
Hello I'm impressive by your work S7ven!!!

But i've few questions:

With your custom rom, we lose the system who manage the Hifi, SRS and BBE sound ? (who is very great)

When it's the system of smart motion, multitask windows and the one handed ?

Is the french always included in your rom?

Thank you for your futur rom
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] sev7en:
Hi darkhelion,

and welcome aboard! No, special features as the quoted above aren't removed than services as all the Chinese BBK cloud (it works anyway...) or the wide clients for IM/chat.

The ROM starts with the English (GB) idiom as default but you can easily switch to French too.
