I use Virtuous Ten Studio (VTS) you can search XDA for it. Quite popular as it unpacks boot.img, allows edits to ramdisk, and you can swap zimage and pack it back together into a new boot.img

Also, it de-compiles, de-odex, blah blah blah.... Pretty much a 1 stop shop. Runs in windows. Sure beats doing all it from a cmd window!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
Ivan, I'm curious. You have a Star S9500 device. And you're using kernel source from an Acer smartphone???

Uhm, unless I am mistaken, you really shouldn't use kernel source from a different device, as the results could be bad. Unless the devices are identical and branded under a different name.

I also am searching kernel source for my ExPlay X-Tremer which uses the MTK6589 CPU.

Am quite interested in your results.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superdragonpt:
Hi

Well, sorry but you cant OC an Mediatek SoC, it doesnt use those freq-values. Its still an mystery how to do it on that brand. since they will never share the FULL sourcecode.

All you will be able to do, by changing that is to display an "value" it will be only Visual, And not actually overclocked.

So just stop wasting your time on that. Will never work :(

You can also ask varun his also an kernel developer with experience on the MTK platform. Still the answer will be the same.

On an side note, you just build an kernel that will only work on the original acer device, not yours. It doesn't work that way lol

Its not all JUST about having the same SoC, there are other things:

Alps, magnetic sensor, proximity, etc that you need to config on kernel boardconfig to work on your device.

For packing /unpacking, since this is an MTK device, the best tool is Bruno Martins pack and unpack scripts:

B.Regards
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
Exactly, not to mention trying to install a kernel meant for another device could have disastrous results...

As far as Full kernel source, I'm not even sure if the device manufacturers even have it. I suppose a lot of these devices are just "re-branded" clones, as I have been getting nowhere in answer on anything from Ex-Play, even citing GPL and such. "Somebody" has it, as 2 other ROMs (MIUI and Lewa) have 2 available ROMs, but I would guess they use the same zimage, considering they run the same OS version.

With the source, could check freq tables, and see if they use a speedo id that can be faked. But without current source, just don't know.

Still searching for the elusive kernel source :D
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superdragonpt:
All the available kernel sources for the MTK platform can be found on my git:

https://github.com/dragonpt

And from varunchitre15 git:

https://github.com/varunchitre15?tab=repositories

As for OC, it was already tried in the past, yes after moding the kernel freq it shows OC values, but they are only Visual, MTK code is really weird.

About sourcecode, only some OEM's have release those, and it tooked ALOT of efforts for it (Petitions and so on), and all we got was the kernel source of course, and most of it it's NOT buildable (needs some fixs to compile).

As for my OEM, they said, they never got it, lol funny no?

This is one of the most ANTI-GPL, Closed Source Company i ever saw, in these last years...

Also Mediatek uses alot of Hacks on their code, i.e: the compiled zlmage needs an patch on kernel header to boot.

regards
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
Thanks Mate. Yeah, looking over the sources, it's quite a mess in there! Tegra3 is so much more in order.

Will have to check my proc, and see which defconfig I use. Seems like a logical place to start. And talk about strange, they use only the Hotpug governor, although it seems several are available, but clearly they aren't set up for the device correctly as only Hotplug works, and the other configs have horrible performance.

Cheers
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superdragonpt:
If you wanna start kernel compiling in this platform, the usuall config.gz wont work, if you are lucky enought you may find some old configs on kernel source code, then the "make oldconfig" should work, if the source doesnt have it then it will be an pain in the a## to compile.

Also some tips:

MTK kernels usually compile only with linaro toolchain 4.6.x or less, higher that this and its gonna be an mess with alot of compiler errors.

About the govs, yes on my tab(6589 soc) seems that the hotplug is the only one working ok, the other 2 govs seems that are only using the first 2 cores.

On the boardconfig, you can add several other govs, and IO,s, but i never add those, i may try that in the future and check if those extra govs work ok.

Regards
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moscow Desire:
Thanks for the tip on the toolchain. I usually use Google's latest. Never installed linaro as I really haven't seen a lot of difference in other testing comparisons. Generates a bunch of errors, but usually on things not specific to my device. Sloppy programming I guess.My guess is it's up to the device manufaturers responsibility to clean up the code. ;)

Check Varun's Git sources, it's there...

There's nothing to explain at this point. It simply CAN'T be Overclocked, Mediatek Code isn't the same as (i.e)Qualcomm ...

Hi there....

Is it possible to use my XDA II as a bluetooth dongle?

I have I-mate Phone Edition and I want to use the Bluetooth in my Pocket PC for my PC to send files throw it.

I have a program in my PPC that change my PPC to Flash Memory when cable is connected to it... then a hard drive shown in My Computer.

Any how,

I wonder if there is a program for PC to identify the MS bluetooth in PPC?

sorry for the bad language!

Bye

Highly unlikely..

Infact; nigh on impossible..
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] microzoom:
There are many program that can control the PPC via bluetooth or cable. and they called remote. from them we can use the PPC bluetooth.

Microsoft should add this function in Activesync for easy to use the bluetooth in PPC! For that we don't need to buy a bluetooth dongle!

any way... thanks to all

What software do you used so PC read your PPC as flash card?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lunkn:
Hey!

Now my device is installed as Xperia Mini, when device is on, is this the right driver?

When not installed (before I press Install PC Companion software on this computer)

it shows up as Sony Ericsson sa0102 ADB Interface Driver, and I have the option to choose between similar named drivers, non of which works. This doesnt seem right?

What driver should the device use

before

PC-Companion installs the Xperia Mini driver?

In flashmode, the device is installed as Android ADB device.

This seems right if you follow other tutorials/guides!

But I still cant flash/root nor unlock bootloader.

I know I need to downgrade the stock software version .62 to either .42 or .58 (The latter I couldnt find, so I will try .42 fw)

Bootloader unlock allowed: yes

USB debugging: ON

Unknown sources: ON

USB connection mode: MSC

Driver signature enforcement: OFF

Flashtool -> Throws error both on BLU

and

Flash, says my bootloader

cant be officially unlocked

Doomlords v.4 ->

Cant chmod/copy/install

, but it seems it can push zergRush, if that means it "transferring" the app to the device

SE Bootloader_Unlocking_Relocking -> Throws exception when trying to flash, and hangs when I try to unlock the bootloader

SuperOneClick -> Shows half the process of zergRush then hangs, doesnt matter the method (zergRush, psnauter, GingerBreak)

fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version-> stuck at < waiting for device >

But "adb devices" shows the device! Is there a way to flash, root or unlock the bootloader with ADB?

This part might be the source of the whole mess!

Another problem im facing, probably highly crusial, when I try to upgrade the stock firmware neither PC-Companion nor SE update service can finish the upgrade!! It doesnt recognise my device when I being prompted to connect my phone in flashmode. I'm stuck here...

This might be a problem someone has encontered, and might share som insight in!?

When solved, I'll edit this thread to be "for those who facing the same issues as I'm doing!" And explain the exact details how and which drivers to install, and when!

And if I dont solve it, I'll think I'm gonna give Sony Ericsson a call after I posted on there official forums!

From what I've heard you can now use safestrap to install custom ROMs if you're on ME7. There are a lot of people using Hyperdrive that have taken the update. But it's cool that NFC will bring up blocking mode, if you don't want to go that route :good:

A few tips for battery:

Don't add too many widgets to your homescreen

Don't install too many apps

Uninstall any apps that you don't use

Reduce your brightness whenever you can

Overlocking your CPU will not only drain battery but also may cause random reboots

Turn off Wi-Fi when nt using

Turn off Mobile Data when not using

Installing for the first time:

Download the latest ROM

Rebot into your recovery

Wipe data, cache and dalvik-cache

If you are going to flash INT2EXT then wipe sd-ext too

Now flash the rom

After installation finishes install INT2EXT (optional)

Now you can reboot

First boot may take a long time for the scripts to initialize

Updating from a previous rom;

Wipe cache

Wipe dalvik-cache

Flash the rom

Flash INT2EXT (optional)

Flash GAPPS

Wipe cache again

Wipe dalvik-cache again and reboot

If you have any problems setting up your Google Account then reflash gapps.
