[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Godswrath:
Hey guys,

I think I already know the answer to this, but wanted to double check before proceeding.

At the moment I'm actually still rocking Calk's 3.0. I wanted to play around with some of the new JB roms, but I want to back up my phone with CWM so that I can downgrade back to GB (Calk 3.0) if I ever wanted to come back.

It's completely possible for me to jump back to my backed up GB after upgrading to JB, right? I can just hop into CWM and restore back to my Calk 3.0 backup.

Thanks,

Gods
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Adreaver:
Yes. Very simple too, actually.

Download the EL29Directboot kernel.

Flash the kernel with Mobile Odin.

Nandroid backup in recovery.

reflash calk's GB

Now follow the OP for whatever jellybean rom you want to flash. Whenever you want to come back to GB (which I doubt you will), just flash the EL29 directboot kernel with Mobile Odin, and restore the backup in recovery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
when going back to gingerbeead from jelly bean its best to do a stock one click gingerbread rom first. That way all partitions are set up like they need to be. Then you flash the el26 kernel and restore your nandroid thats gingerbread.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] torklemm:
Hi guys, just a crazy idea.

I loaded my old XDA II with the WM2005 ROM that is floating around in the XDA forum.

First of all I can confirm all the bugs and problems people face with this obvious BETA build of WM2005 on the XDA II, but…

I found the improved MS Bluetooth stack quite interesting.

So here’s an idea:

Would it be possible to extract all WM2005 BT parts (files and registry entries) form the XDA II and place them onto the Magician.

Obviously the XDA II is using a different BT chip, as the Magician, but I found in the registry of the XDA II

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth\HCI

the bthcsr.dll

and in the Magician registry

the bthusb.dll instead.

And we know from the exercise with the Bluesoil stack that the Magician uses some kind of USB BT chip.

So I believe these are the driver dll’s for the different BT chips, so by keeping the bthusb.dll on the Magician the WM2005 stack may accepts it.

So here’s the problem:

I managed to export all WM2005 BT registry entries I found, but I got stuck by copying the bt*.* files (dll, etc.) of the XDA II, as they are obviously in the ROM and Resco File Explores can’t copy them.

Even if we manage to get the files, I believe we face the same problem how to override and load them into the Magician.

Maybe by copying them into a different path then \Windows, a directory in the RAM and set the pointers in the registry to this location.

I know it’s probably a hopeless project, but maybe some of you are mad enough and have some ideas and ways of doing it ;-)

I’m happy to help with everything, getting the stuff of my WM2005 XDA II, so let me know if you have some ideas.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] ID64:

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] torklemm:
BT profiles I found in WM2005

Hi, had a quick look through the WM2005 registry and found the following BT profiles:

- Serial Port

- Dial Up Networking

- Headset

- Hands Free

- Input Device (probably Keyboard etc.)

- Active Sync

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] torklemm:
Ecactly my problem, never did that 'dump rom' excercise, and I'm not to deep into that Hex code hacking to do it myself, so if anyone else can get us a dump of that WM2005 Rom so that we can try to integrate the required dll files and registry entries into the Magician, that would help.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] KT:
Ahmmm

guys...

why dont u try the bluetooth stack provided by widcomm instead... it has more features than the 2005 microsoft stack as well, u'll save hell a lot of time and energy extracting only the blutooth stack from the package and am using the widcomm stack currently... it works like a charm... though mine is a himalaya but i've upgraded to win2003se

ROM Version : 2.06,00WWE

Radio Version :1.14.00

ExtROM Version : 2.06.00a

See if u like it... u'll find the widcomm stack on this forum itself, in the Himalaya Upgrading section... but this stack doesnt work with the radio and rom version that himalaya provides... i actually upgraded to the new OS version mainly for the widcomm stack and ofcourse why would i mind a landscape view :D

adios

always

[Miscellaneous Android Development] muhammadrustam:
Dear all,

First of all, I don't take any responsibility if you brick your phone or something goes wrong. I personally tested this on QMobile Noir A8

I got my hands on my friend's Qmobile Noir A8 with Icecream Sandwich as default OS. (Version 4.1.1). I've got the stock rom so I wanted to test it. So I practically tested this on QMobile Noir A8 with Icecream Sandwich (4.0.0) and upgraded it to stock Qmobile Noir A8 Jelly Bean. I used following tools:-

a. MTKdroidTools v2.30

b. SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1224.01

c. SP_Drivers_v1.4

d. My Firmware

The process is simple.

1. Make sure you have installed the Qmobile Noir A8 usb adb drivers as well as MediaTek DA usb drivers. (You can find them all in the attachements SP_Drivers_V1.4 and A8_usb_driver).

2. Download firmware archive and unzip to a folder. You will get a folder with following files :-

android-info.txt

apdb_mt6577_s01_main2.1_w10.24

apdb_mt6577_s01_main2.1_w10.24_enum

boot.img

bplguinfocustomappsrcp_mt6577_s00_maui_11amd_w12_22_sp_v15

cache.img

dsp_bl

ebr1

fat.img

files.txt

installed-files.txt

kernel_gionee77_cu_jb.bin

logo.bin

mbr

mt6577_android_scatter_emmc.txt

preloader_gionee77_cu_jb.bin

ramdisk-recovery.img

ramdisk.img

recovery.img

secro.img

system.img

uboot_gionee77_cu_jb.bin

userdata.img

wbg5803_release_note.txt

3. Now turn off your Qmobile Noir A8 and pull out the battery.

4. Run SP Flash Tool (run as administrator if you are using windows 7/8, in my case I was using windows 8 x64). Now click on Scatter-loading button and choose MT6577_Android_scatter_emmc file from my firmware folder. You will see all the regions will be selected and you can see the relevant files from the folder.

5. Now press Firmware->Upgrade button and put battery back in your Qmobile Noir A8 and plug in the usb cable.

6. If you have already installed the VCOM drivers it will detect it and a red progress bar will be shown. After 100% your mobile will disconnect and reconnect (at this stage Mediatek DA usb drivers will be installed for your device if you already have installed them if not install the drivers and repeat the process). A few more progress bars will be shown and after 5~10 mins you will get a green circle and OK at status bar.

7. Congratulations, you have just upgraded your QMobile Noir A8 from Icecream Sandwich to Jelly Bean.

8. Now just pull out your battery and put it back in and turn on your mobile. Wow! its that simple and great.

I have personally checked everything is working great and 100%.

Check attached images of my A8.

I request that if you share this at any forum or site. Please do mention my name. I ask nothing more. I do appreciate your feedback.

I cant download the part one of the Rom..

Kindly upload it again...!!!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] muhammadrustam:
Try again now.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] muhammadrustam:
Well, after upgrading to this stock ROM, I wasn't able to root it in the beginning. I tried all the methods on the internet but none of them worked. But now I have done it. I have tested it on my own A8 and its working 100%. But still I do not take any responsibility if you brick your phone.

The procedure is simple but it requires that you have upgraded to Stock ROM according to post 1 of this thread.

1. Download the file from the attachment or

from MEDIAFIRE (Root_StockJB_A8_Rustam.rar).

or

from 4shared - Root_StockJB_A8_Rustam.rar

2Now unzip it. You will get a zip file, a scatter file and an img file.

3. Use SP Flash Tool and load the scatter file.

4. Tick on Recovery and choose the A8_recovery.img file.

5. Now Power off your mobile and Click on Download and connect your mobile (powered off) to the PC.

6. The process will continue and you will get a green circle if all is done right. Now you have CWM recovery on your A8.

7. Now copy CWM-SuperSU-v1.04.zip file to the root of your SDcard and boot into recovery. Choose install zip from SDCard.

8. Install the CWM-SuperSU-v1.04.zip and there you go. You have full root access.

You can share all this info but please do share my name as well....

[Miscellaneous Android Development] eddyi:
no clear instructions

well thanks for this uploads , but the tutorial is not very simple , i m having problems installing the drivers , and in the tutorial no clear instructions are given , can u please give the detailed and clear instructions on how to install all the drivers before we start flashing
[Miscellaneous Android Development] muhammadrustam:
eddyi, i think the method is simple if you know what you are doing, Here is the procedure to install the drivers.

1. Download MT6577_USB_VCOM_drivers and unzip it.

2. Run InstallDriver.exe (for 32-bit windows) or installdrv64.exe (for x64 windows).

3. Download A8 USB DRIVERS and unzip it.

4. Right click android_winusb.inf and click on install.

5. Download SP_Drivers (MediaTek DA USB Drivers)

and unzip it.

6. Right click android_winusb.inf and click on install.

Note: When installing unsigned drivers, windows will ask you that the publisher of the driver cannot be verified, install it or not (as in the picture given below:-

Just click on "Install this driver anyway"

If you are using windows 8, it will not let you install the unsigned drivers. You need to disable Driver Signature Enforcement feature in windows 8. Follow the instruction GIVEN HERE to do so.

I hope that this may be helpful to you. Still if you need help, I can do this online for you using teamviewer. PM me if you need.

i feel the phone gets more hot with even making a 3-5 minute call , and battery drains quickly did u experienced the same ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] eddyi:
Testing NOTES

ok , well after a day of testing i found out that , this rom has the same issues of making the phone so hot , n batteryy timming sucks,

:confused:

after some searching over the internet i found possible solutions which are working nicely

1. download ANTUTU CPU MASTER from google play its a free app

select ONDEMAND Governer

and select DEADLINE I/0 Schecduler

enable both to be applied on boot and reboot your phone theses new settings apparently keeps the phone cool and gives u longer battery timmings

plus dont forget to remove/uninstall or freeze uneeded Qmobile bloatware apps like:D

1. NQ security

2. yahoo messenger

3. ebuddy

4. yahoo mail

5. dhingina

6. king office

plaus any mroe that you find not useful or know a better app that does the same :cowboy:

Stock ROM has its own issues, eddyi you are right, the set get shot and battery timing is less. That's why we go for modded roms.

Guys,

I recently bought the note 8.0, while my goal was not to take my regular notebook (real one..you know..papers..) with me and use the note 8.0

as the only source for being use during my day. I still have my laptop, but I prefer to be able to take the note 8.0 with me while travelling and not my laptop.

I installed apps which I think it is necessary for business, and of course, I'm using the standard premium suite apps which pre-installed, but...

I would like to hear from you your top 5-10 apps you can leave with, and please...no game (this post will come later :) ), business app only.

I travelling a lot, and does not have connectivity always, so I need to have offline and online app as well.

It all depends on user specific needs,

for me the most useful combo is Dropbox + Folder sync + EzPdf - all important files I might need go to Dropbox folder on my PC, then after sync I never have to carry printouts with me, and ezpdf allows me to annotate the files if necessary
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Themes and Apps] bigmout:

Great topic.

Just bought one myself and in same situation. Going to use it for work also. I have found that a combination of Polaris, ezPDF, Officesuite Pro w/font addon, cloud service, & Google Docs works for most things. Evernote w/Skitch is OK but last I knew you have to pay to sync with other accounts so it is limited. Not sure what you do for a living but there are also some cool space design/measuring/dimension calculating apps. I also have business and fraction calculators installed. Of course Lecture Notes.

Probably leaving some out but will post if I think of something.

Take a look at Notes Mobile also. Unfortunately, if you use the developer setting to do all your 2d rendering on the GPU it has a display bug - no fix and they're aware of it, and the same company has a scientific notation app which works correctly.

The up side is it's the best handwriting recognition I've seen on this device. It does substantially better than the onboard stuff does.

Until they fix the bug, I'm sorry to have purchased it but they're getting dinged enough in the Play store for it that I'm optimistic they'll eventually address the issue.

Just Google it, there's an own website for it. Basically it gives you a structure of tags to organize all's your tasks, especially your emails, too, which are kind of a task. Imo it's only useful if you use outlook in Windows to export mails to evernote. If u use Gmail for example the complete structure can also be achieved using labels, which is just another word for tag..
