next is getting clockworkmod recovery.

and till kernel sources arrive that will be all anyone can do.
[Android General] Nizamkhanfb:
if any one can get the frimware/stock rom we can build the CWM
[Android General] deepaktom:
Do you know how to? I can get u the .IMG of stock recovery
[Android General] Dark Passenger:
using adb backup

use the command

adb backup -f system.img

if this doesn't work.you can Google for the same.
[Android General] deepaktom:
I read somewhere that yaffs is needed to properly backup system. and this just can be used to extract it but not for restoring it back. Is that true?

Anyways what i meant was does he know how to compile the recovery. I have no experience in that area so my effort is not that effective.
[Android General] Dark Passenger:
works for backup and restore no idea why he needs a system dump for recovery all he should want is recovery.img and / or boot.img

for constructing a device tree.(recovery only).

a good guide actually the very best is this

I can help in some areas but what I lack is a device and a build environment.
[Android General] jimmysmart83:
anybody look at this > http://www.magicbazaar.net/en/smart...LA-Q1-Quad-Core-Smartphone-Android-Jelly-Bean

Nope different processor.

anyone can contact xolo care regarding unlocking boot-loader and kernel sources.They tried to call me but I was busy at that time and could not answer.

can anyone else do it.

Man please try again yourself please.(not being rude:) ) I want to buy this phone but just waiting for cwm. If that becomes possible then custom roms will be easy to make and 0we will be able to utilize the phone to fullest.

Cwm boots but has trouble with display and mounts. Need help from a developer. Can only resume working on it in the weekend.
[Android General] Dark Passenger:
I got two developers ready to get us clockwork mod and /or twrp recoveries but require Kernel Sources.

so can some one for God sake try with Xolo care please.

Thanks.
[Android General] deepaktom:
I'm trying. But unable to get past customer care.. wil try again.

[Android General] devilex94:
Me too tried emailing them.

But no reply till now.

I emailed them last night.

Waiting time.

BTW did Lava released Kernel source of Q800 because they already got cwm.

---------- Post added at 03:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:44 PM ----------

I have an idea but don't know if it is correct

use this app to backup current rom through phone

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.h3r3t1c.onnandbup&hl=en

this app works like cwm recovery , therefore we can extract the boot.img and kernel from the backup.

Don't know if it's correct because i don't remember which things are stored as backup by the app.

The app requires root and busybox.

Please someone try

SORRY it won't work because it also require recovery as said on xda forum.But still someone wants to try then please go on

---------- Post added at 04:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:56 PM ----------

Found one more thing

Nvidia git

Tell me if it helps

http://nv-tegra.nvidia.com/gitweb/
[Android General] Dark Passenger:
don't worry just need a recovery.img and boot.img.

that should reach the dev latest by tonight(courtesy deepak.Tom).

don't worry cwm should be soon.

for anyone who is trying for kernel sources mail then at care@xolo.in they should call you back in a week.

also a word of advice when asking for the kernel mention that the source is required to be published in accordance with gpl licensing terms and if they refuse say you will complain against them to gnu.

EDIT : also we need to be gpl compliant for getting a forum on xda.

EDIT 2 : and the Developer I asked is Recognized Developer speedbot .

Off-Topic (Micro SD Card)

Hi Guys,

I have to buy a 16GB SD Card for my Xolo Play

Which one should I prefer Samsung Class 6, SanDisk Class 6 or SanDisk Ultra class10.

What difference will the classes make in normal usage and Gameplay ??
[Android General] KingTodi:
Phone's awesome, but OS needs Tinkering.

I got this phone on the 2nd of August for 14,700/-

From the first day I've been experiencing battery drainage issues and deep sleep problems!

Also I've noticed if someone puts a huge message on whatsapp or a huge post on Facebook, the message/post becomes invisible. Now I don't know whether this is the app's issue or my phone's.

I'm looking for alternatives now. The battery gets drained in 2 hours I switch to 3G, 3 hours in 2G, 6 hours in WiFi. This is when I moderately use my phone, that means NO gaming, 5-10 mins of Low Quality Videos, 5-8 Photos, Some facebook, whatsapp and Any.Do. Installing Juice Defender has helped me a bit the battery life has increased by 1.5x. But again this is not great! It's really frustrating! :confused:

Can someone please suggest a work around, I am afraid of voiding my warranty because I found that the phone is a rebranded version of Beidou Little Pepper Q1

Thanks.
[Android General] DigiGoon:
Exactly the same problem buddy.

I'm facing exactly the same problem as yours and i think that this is an OS problem, then also im gonna go to service centre once. Will let u know afterwards. :o :)
[Android General] cinecon:
Class ten will b a waste if u ask me. The phone should be able to read and write at that speeds to make the SD card worthwhile which I strongly think this phone is not capable of. Go with the class 6... unless u r getting all three at the same price.

---------- Post added at 08:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:53 PM ----------

Okay I bought the phone a week back and have not faced your message too big problem and I use a lot of social media. Secondly the battery is bad but not as bad as yours but then I have never used it continuously for so long yet. Mine lasts for 7 hours with moderate use, gaming one hour. Finally warranty should not be an issue, it might be a copy(not entirely) but it does have xolo branding.
[Android General] KingTodi:
I meant that if I go ahead and root the phone and install a custom ROM or something, the warranty from XOLO will void right?
[Android General] deepaktom:
Install deep sleep battery saver pro and set appropriate settings. Messages are you aware that notifications can be expanded by double finger swipe down or pinch zoom.

he said is right. even i have noticed that long messages in whatsapp dissappear suddenly and when the Internet speed becomes little good it appears again. Thats the OS issue.

ANd deepak bhai which battery saver u use. if u use any other battery saver other than xolo battery saver. do u kill or stop the xolo power processor before using the other ?? HUH??

i tried pimp my rom (beta) in which i tried some internet tweaks which dint work for me since our kernel is stock and has no init.d support as per the knowledge i have.:P:silly::silly::silly:

This is so pathetic, my phone goes black every now and then! And all the while I have to do a hard reboot! (I think that's what they call it when you remove the battery to restart the phone right?)

I hope Xolo guys send a working update soon enough! A friend had bought the XOLO Q700 sometime back and was praising this brand a lot so I fell into this crap! :(:(

---------- Post added at 08:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:19 PM ----------

Few things to note about the phone developers just so you can keep it in mind when you are developing the Rom:

1. Large messages disappear on apps specially social media.

2. After listening to music for some time over headphones(not stock, those didn't work since day one) bass stops and the phone only plays treble. Disconnecting and reconnecting the headphones fixes the problem. Happened with both Google music and poweramp. Not headphone problem.

3. Sometimes the phone refuses to wake up from deep sleep. Music keeps playing and touch buttons light up but screen doesn't turn on. Only battery removal fixes it.

4. Finally and probably the scariest of them all(happened only once till now): signal strength full and internet working but calls not going through and neither incoming. Caller says the phone was switched off and I receive a missed call message from service provider once phone was restarted. :eek:
[Android General] andynoob:
WE ALL HAVE THIS PROBLEM. i think some of our members are already working on it. it will take time to make a custom rom but we will surely make one. we all are inexperienced in this. only [MENTION=4839120]ankur850[/MENTION] is the only developer here. i toh am noob. trying to port and make custom roms along with [MENTION=4839120]ankur850[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4271299]devilex94[/MENTION] . work has already been started. while [MENTION=4343895]deepaktom[/MENTION] is learning ubuntu(linux) for android development as after ankur he is the one who can make our plan successful(even simmer11 and devilex) so just pray and have patience . till then use stock rom or wait for an update from xolo :)(surely in next 100 years maybe:silly::silly::silly::silly:)
[Android General] A_MAN:
Damn!!

I just installed The Amazing SpiderMan on my xolo play.... when i run it; it loads up well and then when game started up it lags like hell. When i googl'ed this problem then i came to know that "most of the Gameloft games are'nt compatible with tegra chipset". Other games like Real Boxing works gr8 on this device.

Am I not able to play MC4,Asphalt7, Nova3, RF13 and other games from gameloft? :crying:

Can anyone share compatibilty list of gameloft games for xolo play?
[Android General] devilex94:
No that is not true proble . tegra chipsests work perfectly fine with all games but xolo has very much underclocked both gpu and cpu . Due to battery heat up all cores underclock themselves to 640mhz from 1500mhz and gpu default clocked at 200mhz and not 416 mhz :(

To repair these things you will need root and app called LG P880 Booster

my brother is a gamer and fyi every game you mentioned above is fully compatible with Xolo Play.. my brother has already finished.. all of those you mentioned above.. mind telling me how are you installing the games ?

[Android General] Rittik:
Stock xolo=4.1.2

Cm10.1=4.2.2

Secondly due to mismatch of libs CM wont bootup on stock or even stock kernel. Its useless to try porting on stock rom.

Batman dark knight rises plays smoothly? On mine the frame rates are downright horrible. Actually... tell me something... did you buy these games or was there a "torrent-ial" downpour? because I am thinking.. that maybe google play detects the phone and lets you download tegra optimized versions of the game without the user knowing, whereas the same on torrents are the ones that were installed on non tegra handsets and hence were not tegra optimized... maybe that could be a possible explanation as to why some games are unplayable on this handset.
