I haven't experienced these issues so far, may that just be that you accidently turned on gps from quicksettings? For what concerns data connection, you can give a try to this modified modem.img:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2364473

Some further tweak will be included for sure, but your issues seems connected to something else.

I tried some stock roms from zopo and even from zopo phablets, but I didn't like them so far. I'll probably keep the Iocean base I'm using right now. :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tmk2404:
For sure not, because I've checked it twice. Checkbox was off but GPS was working because battery usage was bigger and in battery it shows GPS all day on. In the other hand it was 2 times so far so it isn't a big issue so probably u won't find it anyway ;) ok, I'll give it a try. Have you tried oppo r819 Rom as a base?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Sambaaa:
Yeah, I still need to try Oppo stock firmware, but I've tested an AOSP based rom for r819. Here some screenshots:

It may an interesting device for the future, right now nothing really new, we'll see!

I have iOcean X7 Plus that has 16Gb of memory,but i can only see 1.3gb off memory.

Where is the rest?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Sambaaa:
Well, that's standard for all Iocean. Around 1.3GB for apps, all the rest for data (photos, music, ...). It can be changed, but you need Flashtool and modified EBR files. Those are the ones for iOcean Elite, no idea about Plus, but they may fit your model too.

http://ubuntuone.com/3WBvy15bKKUvIv441LWSRz

You just need to launch flashtool, replace stock EBR with these and flash (no need to flash the whole rom). It will format your internal memory. I've not personally tested this procedure, in case of issues flash back stock rom with original EBR files.

On my youth I used an apk to change partition sizes, but don't know if it would work for you.

Recovery TWRP

Recovery TWRP​

Here two new recoveries for Iocean x7!

I prepared an english TWRP recovery for iocean x7 youth which works correctly.

You can find a modified version of the same recovery for Iocean Elite and Iocean Plus, but I cannot test it and may not be working properly (especially touchscreen). I need somebody with this model to test it and report what works and what needs to be fixed. - both recovery have been reported working fine. :victory:

For what concerns installation instructions:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tmk2404:
Sambaaa can you look at focal camera app from cm10.2 to work on our devices? It's really great app but produce FC after opening :)

btw. about modem from thread that you posted. It was still the same, now I have modem MOLY.WR8.W1248.MD.WG.MP.V7.F2.P1 WR8.W1248.MD.WG.MP VANZO89_WET_JB2_MD1_HSPA 20130706 and works like a charm, if any one has similar issues like I had.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Sambaaa:
Good for the modem.img! :)

Talking about Focal, it's still beta and still force closes on many devices. I cannot do much, I should work on app source code, but I'm not an app developer. I reported your issues in Focal official thread, but I saw many reports like this so I guess its developer is already working on it ;)

Has anyone seen that screen patch for the Elite?

http://www.androidgroupon.com/2013/07/22/iocean-x7-elite-touch-screen-upgrade-guidance.html

Or do anyone know if they upgraded the touch firmware on the later versions?

And where exactly does Iocean post their roms/firmwares, I can't seem to see any on their homepage :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Sambaaa:
Great news guys: my rom is almost ready!!

It'll be compatible with any Iocean x7 and based on latest Iocean x7 Elite stock rom (20130722) with a series of optimizations. Youth's version uses latest kernel (20130723) and Elite's stock as a base.

Of course, considering this is a first version, it may have a few bugs still since I've tested in its final version just for a couple of days, but everything worked without any issues on my phone so far, so I'll be waiting your feedbacks.

It'll be out for download today or in the next days! :)

Hi! Yes I guess that's the patch I linked a few posts ago to fix ghost touch in playstore :) By the way, you can find Iocean stock roms in Iocean's official forum:

bbs.iocean.cc/forum.php

Don't know whether they improved touch in latest versions, but that patch you're referring to modifies phone at a lower level than flashtools (that's why it's so dangerous).
[Miscellaneous Android Development] BartAfterDark:
Thanks [MENTION=5073973]Sambaaa[/MENTION] :)

There also seems to be a new revision of the Youth version. I can't read chinese, so my information is based on Google translate:

GammaRom v1.0 - 04/10

Iocean x7​

GammaRom​

​

Developed by Sambaaa​

New rom is out! This time it's not a port, but totally based on Iocean x7 Elite 22/07 stock firmware.

Here's new GammaRom dedicated thread:

[ROM][4.2.1][Iocean x7] GammaRom v1.0 [Youth][Youth Turbo][Plus][Elite]​

A few notes:

some of you asked whether it's possible to wake up Iocean x7 with home key/volume rocker, the answer is: I tried with no success, IMO it's an hardware limitation so that feature cannot be implemented on our Iocean (the same modification works on many other mt6589)

I've been asked to port CyanogenMod SMS app because of its advanced management of special keys, useful in many country. I had no time to work on it, but GravityBox has a similar feature under Phone Tweaks>Messaging, probably that's exactly what I've been asked to port

For what concerns replacing menu button with multi tasking button, I haven't looked at it yet, but I guess it can be done

mmh can't remember of other feature request.... :eek:

Report in GammaRom thread issues/opinions/suggestions/feature requests and so on.

Yeah I used that rom's kernel for Youth/Youth Turbo version of GammaRom (GravityMod2 port uses previows kernel version instead). I downloaded that 23/07 rom, but never flashed, only used as a base and it seems to work without issues. I think the only difference is in preloader, if you flash that without preloader it should work (never tested though). :o

[MENTION=5073973]Sambaaa[/MENTION] : can you used aroma installer on your flashable ROM?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Sambaaa:
I'll try to flash both Youth firmware (without preloader) as I have time, but don't really think they changed much. I'm quite confident that both stock roms (and related customs) work on any Youth with the only difference of preloader. I don't think they changed camera module or other sensors: they have some hardware difference in motherboard configuration, but at a lower level than the one involved by flashing roms (except preloader as I said). Need to try it to be sure :)

My youth anyways has a completely different SN number with respect to those, probably only Iocean Youth Turbo has a similar SN.

Well, GravityMod2 is not developed by me so I'm not going to modify it (maybe I'll just update kernel and modules with latest stock ones and fix a few bugs of the port), in GammaRom instead I'm probably gonna do it in the future. Once v1.0 has enough feedbacks so that I can solve bugs (in case of any), I may work on an Aroma installer version of the same rom. I don't want it to just let you choose among a few launchers and apps (that would be quite useless), I'd prefer to add something more useful in the aroma installer version. It'll require time especially because some features are not easy to implement with 4-5 different Iocean models with some hardware differences and no possibility to test on all of them (only youth standard).

Turbo Zip??

:svetius:

My device is the Youth Turbo version, what zip do I should install? for the Youth version right? Or it Isn't compatible? :svetius:

Help Please, I would like to try it but I have afraid of Brick my device :D

Edit: I would Like to Port Mtk Roms based on Samsung roms like the no.1 N3 and the no.1 s6

But I need to know if it is possible to brick my device for being a Turbo version of Youth
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Sambaaa:
Hi, you should use the zip for Youth :good:

Keep in mind that it's not so easy to port roms in general; that zip may help and sometimes work for easy ports, but most of the times leads to bootloops or at least bugs to fix. You won't brick your device, but you need to have at least a bit of experience to use it safely. For example, are you able to flash stock rom through flashtool? In case of issues flash stock rom through flashtool or enter recovery through hardware keys (power your phone off, connect it to pc and keep power+volume up pushed) and flash any working custom rom (or restore a nandroid backup).

Whatever mt6589(T) rom is a good base for a port to Iocean, but that simple porting zip is not enough most of the times.

Remember to backup both your IMEIs; you can use mtkdroid tools or simply write both of them on a piece of paper from Settings>about phone>status>imei. ;)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] voetbalremco:
Even when you haven't backed-up your IMEI's you're quite safe. :p

Just make sure your PC has the correct drivers installed so you can flash using SP flashtool, and a CWM-backup available to restore to.

mmh don't think it's kernel related since iocean wouldn't boot with stock thl w8 kernel. You can try the attacched kernels btw, don't think you'll see any difference. Elite's kernel works on youth except from rear camera. I'm testing it right now, we'll see...

Iocean x7 Elite Compatibility zip

I'm giving here a few infos to Elite's users that are interested in this rom.

This rom is only compatibile with Iocean x7 Youth and Youth Turbo by default. If you flash this on an Iocean x7 Elite it should boot and work without problems except from rear camera which won't work on Elite.

For me it's quite difficult to work for Iocean Elite because I don't own that model, so I cannot test what I do. By the way you can find an experimental Compatibility zip for Iocean x7 Elite in the link below. I've been quite conservative in this zip, trying to modify long way more files than strictly necessary, but hope it may work for you.

Installation guide for Iocean x7 Elite users:

Hope this may work even if I'm not able to test it. Let me know!

Can I use kernel elite in youth ?

With elites kernel is faster graphic ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Sambaaa:
No, I've never heard of any compiled kernel for mt6589 devices and I don't know of anybody who's working on it. Nowadays we haven't much choice.

Yes you can flash it, but rear camera won't work. In my opinion youth and elite almost share the same kernel (except a few modules related to different hardwares) and even permormances aren't particularly affected. Previows quadrant scores posted by me have been obtained using Elite's kernel and are the same you would probably get using Youth's one.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] pakistanish:
sambaa can you give me the details for removing that nvram error manually because I installed MIUI rom and it also has the same Wi-Fi profile in it. After flashing your kernel I my user interface for modified from MIUI to normal so I will have to remove it manually.

Sent over Electromagnetic Waves
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Sambaaa:
That was not a real solution, it just reverted back to stock rom situation in which NVRAM warning is hidden in wifi, but visible with apps like wifi analyzer (if you flash a stock rom and analyze wifi you'll see it). If you want that warning to disappear from Settings>wifi you can flash that zip on any rom, but it won't really solve the problem. In the future I'll work on a better rom based on last iocean x7 stock where these kind of issues will hopefully disappear.

"Unfortunately" I'll be on holiday for the next two weeks so I won't be able to keep working on it for a while. :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Sambaaa:
Ok, I just prepared a zip which will really solve NVRAM warning 0x04 (even when scanning wifi with Wifi Analyzer, not only under Settings) and Settings FC when tapping on "About Phone" field. You can find it in the attachement.

I think this rom can be almost considered bug-free now! :fingers-crossed:

Hi, thank you for reporting! That's a good news, if you have no problems with rear camera, bluetooth and stuff like that then this rom can be considered compatible with Iocean x7 elite too.

Thank you for posting voetbalremco, I've used your rom in the past and was really good.

PS Elite's compatibility zip should work on any Iocean x7 Youth rom (I cannot test it).

I've prepared a similar compatibility zip for Iocean Youth through which it is possibile to use Iocean Elite's roms on Youth (stock roms included), but I don't find it particularly useful considering the lack of good custom roms for Elite.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] da_fix:
Hi, the rom works fine on Elite version and bluetooth patch worked for me. Great job :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] voetbalremco:
The patch wich makes youth roms compitable with elite is very nice, I have downloaded it and checked what's inside. However if you had more confirmations than just 1 xda user it would be more reliable.

and indeed, it would also be possible to make a revert package so the youth would be compitable with elite roms, but as you already say too; there aren't roms for the elite worth investing time in getting it to work on the youth.

I think your rom is good too, even though it is a port. A while ago I had ported it for myself from the THL W8 but I did something wrong wich made it unstable, and thus I started making my own rom.

However, im running into a problem. Im trying to get the xPosed framework mod and the gravitybox addon to be installed at boot.

The apps and binary's install fine, but it is still needed to press "install" in the xposed app and reboot in order to make it work.

Do you have an idea how to fix this, and make it possible to use gravitybox as soon as you flash the rom, without having to install xposed?!

I've already placed the files for xposed in /system/app, system/bin, system/etc/init.d and data/xposed.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Sambaaa:
Yeah, the patch for Elite is a quite stupid zip that modifies all hardware related stuff, of course it may be improved in order to modify only what differs from Youth (probably only camera). You're right, I'd need more feedbacks to be sure it is really working, but I've tested a similar patch on my Youth and managed to use Elite's stock rom 0705 without visible bugs so it should work on Elite too (I hope). We'll see!

For what concerns Xposed, I was working on it too a couple of weeks ago before going on holiday. What script did you put in system/etc/init.d?

Have you tried with something similar to the following (coming from GravityMod2)?

#!/system/bin/sh
log -p i -t GravityMod2 "Checking for xposed framework...";
if [ ! -d "/data/xposed" ]; then
log -p i -t GravityMod2 "Installing xposed framework...";
mkdir /data/xposed
chown system:system /data/xposed
chmod 755 /data/xposed
cp /system/etc/xposed/* /data/xposed/
chown system:system /data/xposed/*
chmod 644 /data/xposed/XposedBridge.jar
chmod 666 /data/xposed/modules.list
chmod 666 /data/xposed/modules.whitelist
fi
[Miscellaneous Android Development] voetbalremco:
Well, as long as it works ;)

I suppose the camera is different, aswell as the kernel and intern sd files, but not much more.

Since the patch isn't a 200mb file wich takes some time to download, I would leave it like it is, and try to get more people with an elite testing it.

Talking about testers; I have an idea. I know some people from another, dutch forum, who have the Elite. They could test it.

With your permission ofcourse.

Do you mind if I send them your patch to test with my rom on Elite?

About gravitymod: I did placed a simular script in system/etc/init.d already. That's why I can't find out what's going wrong ;)
