I can't seem to get VISIONary+ r14 to work. It just sits there with the yellow triangle and the poor guy with the zap going to his chest. "Rooting Device, Please Wait". Trying the simpler root.rar method first.

Seems as though VISIONary+ is used almost universally in either of the 2 basic methods, I need to get past this.

What could be wrong?

I'm pretty inexperienced, but I was able to root my G1 a few weeks ago, without a major disaster. I am running 2.2.1 froyo now on the MT4G (software version 1.17.531.2)
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N_otori0us_:
Root using ADB or search for a guide which isn't a one click method.

Don't any one click methods, try it manually.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rs899:
Yeah ...ADB. I was hoping to not have to go there. My head's gonna explode, I just know it....
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N_otori0us_:
I thought that too. Don't worry. Just download adb. Then open it. Simple as that.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HassenB:
Greeting everyone!

I'm Hassen B, 17 years old lad from Tunisia.

First of all, excuse me if I posted in the wrong section as I'm still new to the forums. I have an Evertek EverMagic (Which is a Tunisian brand) which is running under Android 4.1.1 with Dual-Core of 1Ghz and 512MBs of RAM. Before making stuff complicated, I'd like to say that both Evertek and Wiko Cink does only put-pieces-together-as-a-lego. Both companies buy the phone pieces from a Chinese/Japanese manufacturer and build the pieces together in their HQs and release them under their brand name. So as an Evertek, my phone is called "EverMagic" and as Wiko Cink, my phone is called "Wiko Cink+". Both phones have same specifications but only brand name is different.

One of the first reasons that I want to root my phone on is the Apps storage. As non-rooted, I can only store apps on 500MBs (out of 2GBs) and I can not place apps on my SD Card. So I'll be so happy if you guys assist me on how to root my phone.

If you need any other information, hit me up!

Cheers,

Hassen B!

if I was to pull my system from my Cricket phone, would we be able to get some work on the Cricket version of this phone?

I see work being done on Boost Mobile and other versions, but not much on the Cricket model.
[HTC One SV] Modding.MyMind:
Depends if someone has a cricket phone to run tests and debug any issues prior to release.

---------- Post added at 08:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:38 PM ----------

You could be the forth coming of all cricket users though ;)

---------- Post added at 08:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:40 PM ----------

A hint.... Important partitions on your device are very similiar to the K2_UL variant :).
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
I deodexed the cricket system for you guys, that you can build mods (for example in UOT Kitchen).

Some of our european mods should also work with that, but it needs someone with that phone to try (of course with a backup in his hand).

But its downloaded only 4 times (in the last 4 weeks).

Seems there is not much interest out there, sorry.
[HTC One SV] ARitualSacrifice:
Well, throw me some links and I'll test out a few ROMs/MODs

Really looking to see this device take off...
[HTC One SV] old.splatterhand:
Flash the package in post #3 first.

Then you can try things from post #1 or 2 if you want.

Also xpirt has some threads with mods for 422.

But like i said, i can't say for sure, if all will work also for cricket.

You should have a backup (and the knowledge to restore).
[HTC One SV] LetsChangeTheGame:
i am dedcated

im a k2 plc cl user and have flashed alot of roms from all links and most have been for k2 ul but also have had all different kind of problems but also alot of success so i would like to try and do anything to help
[HTC One SV] Krsmqn:
Add me to the mix. K2_PLC_CL user also. I have stock backup as well as a backup of my xposed modded ROM. I will test whatever I can to help out development for the cricket variant.

Hello everyone,

So basically I own a very nice phone with decent specifications but not many people know it, so I decided to come here and Ask

First of all, it's the Vodafone Smart mini, aka. TCT Vodafone V875, It has 3.5" HVGA screen, resolution 320x480, MTK 6575 1ghz single core cpu and a PowerVR gpu which gives amazing performance

So, I've been looking all over internet for a custom rom for it, I was able to root it using the amazing Framaroot and I got custom recovery from smartmini.wordpress.com, that website has a custom rom stock based for it but that's not what I'm looking for

I'm looking for something like AOKP or CM or Paranoid for my device, that gives me an android version higher than 4.1.1 since that's what the device comes with

What I'm asking for is a custom rom with android version 4.1.2+ that is the same as CM or any other famous roms so if there is or if there are people working on one(s) please give me link and thank you :)

Also a little link to help devs looking forward to develop a rom for the device : http://sourceforge.net/projects/alcatel/files/VF875_20130619.tar.xz/download

It's the device's source code

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] mistamikel:
Boot into recovery and clear the dalvik cache, if that doesnt work then whipe and re-flash the rom.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Have you tried a different SMS app? If it works with other apps, then it's the messaging app acting up and not Android, and if it still doesn't work, it's probably a glitch somewhere and you can try clearing cache and dalvik like mistamikel says.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] jordy787:
after installing handcent sms i can send texts now through the default hangout app and i did clear cache and dalvik thanks guys
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] onyxbits:
Hi,

having a discussion with rcmeredith over at this thread whether or not it would be worth supporting Android 2.1 in Text Fiction (interactive fiction player). I did a hackjob backport(*) as a test to see how much trouble it would be. Unfortunately, the amount of extra work is considerable, so I'm looking for input if continued support is something I should do.

(*) Using the "Import" menuitem will crash the app (either pass them over directly from your browser or copy the files manually). Also note that "smooth scrolling" is available from the settigns but doesn't have any actual effect.
[Nook Touch Themes and Apps] richardcoop:
There already is "Son of Hunky Puck" here: http://bit.ly/Mdr4sC which does interactive fiction on Android 2.1 supporting both Z-machine and TADS.

It might be similar.

[Android Apps and Games] CCGLP:
Hi there! I want to show you the first game I ever made (Actually first and only)

The game was really made to practice. It's a platform game, and I try to make it difficult, So every time you "die" you come back to the previous level.

The good thing about it it's that I learned a lot developing the game, and I gonna try further with the next game!

(I expected that the next game will have better menu screen so)

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Calkulin:
Since CM11 changed to CAF, here's a zip to be able to use AOSP kernels again. There's really only one note to adhere -

You MUST use the kernel ramdisk from CM's kernel as there is stuff in there that is needed, so if you just flash a AOSP kernel that is built as a boot.img, IT MAY NOT BOOT

. Special Note - For Franco's kernel(and others maybe) all you need is to do is use the CM(or mod his) init.d to get it working properly, using the full CM ramdisk may cause the phone not to sleep(high Android OS usage in battery stats)

Now for those that want to know the specifics, these 10 libs are what control it

hw/gralloc.default.so
hw/gralloc.msm8974.so
hw/hwcomposer.msm8974.so
hw/memtrack.msm8974.so
libexternal.so
libmemalloc.so
libmemtrack.so
liboverlay.so
libqdutils.so
libqservice.so
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Curiousn00b:
This is neat. Haven't tried CM11 yet, but when I do, this will be good. :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] melbourne408:
So for a CAF based rom my best bet for running a third party kernel would be to let the rom boot with its ramdisk, flash this fix (Thank you by the way.)

Let that boot,

Then while in recovery flash the custom kernel?

Would it do any justice to unzip the Decaf build, replace the boot.img with a third party kernel boot.img and just flash that in recovery?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Tikerz:
Well it's not going to boot with 3rd party kernel so you flash the non CAF zip immediately after flashing the nightly. Then flash the custom kernel. Then reboot.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] chris6278:

[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
anyone try with Franco yet?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Tikerz:
Yes, it works. Flash CM11, flash non CAF zip, then last flash the custom kernel. You'll have to do this for each nightly until CM breaks it again.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] kecinzer:
Can someone point me to the source, where was changed to CAF? Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
Is volume control an issue though? I believe certain apps like Play Music or whatever fail to allow volume to be properly controlled with Franco. I will test now and report back.

Edit: Volume control works but then you lose custom color settings
[Nexus 5 Android Development] dannyella:
Any tried this on latest nightly 29/7??
[Nexus 5 Android Development] rockingondrums:
Is this why all my music and alarms were at max volume at all times before?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
Are you on Franco? Starting Nightly ~0118 or so, the conflict started due to the audio commits and as a result the volume control for media started spiraling out of control on Franco kernel. I'm not sure about alarms because I already use 6/7 volume which is pretty loud, so 7/7 probably wouldn't be noticeable unless I did a heads up comparison.

But basically, while this non-CAF patch allows you to gain control of the volume back, a lot of Franco kernel features will be broken. Basically CM and Franco commits are in conflict right now, so unless Franco decides to support CM's latest moves or someone cherry picks commits for Franco kernel, it's gonna be hard to get the best of both worlds.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] rockingondrums:
Yeah, I was. I've got an itch to switch (again) anyway. I'm the opposite of you; I always have media at max, but my alarm fades in. It took me a few rude awakenings to figure out why.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
I personally just want color control. To me, features are more important so CM comes first unless there's a very similar AOSP-ROM that offers some key features I need. So I'll try to run CM and just ditch Franco if necessary :( Thank goodness the colors on the N5 aren't as bad as the stock N4. I just powered on my N4 and almost barfed.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] rockingondrums:
I just want to get rid of mp decision. BTW, I used this patch with Trinity's latest beta on cm nightly and audio in the alarm stream broke again, as well as torch.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Calkulin:
One thing you can't do is just can't flash whatever kernel you want when it's built as a boot.img onto a ROM like CM, as the ramdisk for CM & AOSP are different, so you will have issues. To get them to work, decompile it, see if the kernel has specific kernel related changes in the ramdisk, decompile a CM kernel and pull the CM ramdisk, mod the ramdisk with the changes of the kernel that you want and rebuild the boot.img with the CM modded ramdisk with the kernel zImage of the kernel you want, that's basically what I do for Franco's kernel that's in my thread, it's Franco's kernel with a CM ramdisk that was modified to include all the changes he usually does.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] reddvilzz:
I haven't really get the point. So if i want to use CM based rom and wanted to use AOSP kernel (non caf) i need to flash the CAF kernel and then flash the non caf zip?

Confused here :)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] radzik2908:
First flash Enable_CAF_Kernel_Support,

Next flash your favorite kernel.

Regards.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] reddvilzz:
This is for using aosp kernel on cm right?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] EnginEAR:
Root Problems

I tried flashing the non-CAF version on CM11 and then flashing Faux123's kernel. Phone booted but I lost root.

Then I tried flashing the CAF version on CM11 and then flashing Chaos kernel. Phone booted and root survived.

I'm not sure, but I think the non-CAF breaks root somehow...

I use SuperSu 1.91 and run the latest nightly (I re-flash every day)
[Nexus 5 Android Development] seschaum:
Hi, the problem lies here:

- or you lose root or other functionality!
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
This is confusing. Shouldn't you flash "Calkulin's_Non_CAF_Kernel_Support_for_Hammerhead_CM11_nightly_1-27-14.zip" if you want to use Franco kernel because it's a non CAF kernel? What's the point of the other file?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] f100cleveland:
You are correct but I'm assuming that the CAF kernel support zip is to flash after you've ran an AOSP kernel and want to go back to a cm/CAF compatible kernel. That way it replaces those 4 libs to CAF versions and then your CAF based ROM is back to stock.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] fishhelmet:
Any chance of you making a zip for flashing caf kernels on non caf ROMs?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] CellPhish:
Very noob question here. Do I flash this kernel on the default ROM or second ROM? :confused:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] hanschke:
I love your work. Can you do a release for Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 7 too :good:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
Is anyone using this with Franco kernel? Can you confirm color control is still broken with these patches?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] roustabout:
Thanks, OP, for taking a run at this and for the warnings.

Still, I've been using and rooting android devices for a while, and running alternate roms for a while now, including CM10 within the last year. I'm able to make my own flashable zipfiles when I like.

But the Cyanogenmod team probably has lost me as a potential user - the complexity level for using their ROM with my kernel of choice just went through the ceiling.

It happened somewhere right around here "You MUST use the kernel ramdisk from CM's kernel"

I'm not criticising you - you're warning folks about this, and you're giving them the tools they need to work around the issue.

Folks needing to track which ramdisk they're using to get a kernel to boot CM, however - well, for now, I'll take a pass.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] spences10:
So just so I'm reading this right, we flash "Calkulin's_Non_CAF_Kernel_Support_for_Hammerhead_CM11_nightly_1-27-14.zip" to remove all the derpyness of CAF and use "Calkulin's_Enable_CAF_Kernel_Support_for_Hammerhead_CM11_nightly_1-27-14.zip" to get back to full derp if we need it?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] topgeardave:
Yeah pretty much, I would reflash the rom than use zip 2 to avoid any complications if there are any new libs in the newer nightlies
[Nexus 5 Android Development] spences10:
Bluetooth is still really flaky though...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Calkulin:
seschaum is right, it's because the kernel your flashing is built as a boot.img that has a AOSP ramdisk, breaking root and maybe other things

You could probably use the enable CAF zip but you would need to use the ramdisk from the original ROM with a CAF kernel to make sure you don't have any issues with root, etc

You flash the non CAF zip after you flash the CM11 ROM zip

All you really need to do is pull the non CAF libs that I listed in the OP from a non CAF ROM(don't know if CM started using CAF on 1/27 on those devices like the did on the Nexus 5). On my Nexus 4 post, I used the AOSP libs from Google's build and it worked fine, so you could always try those. As for the kernel, you just need to do the same thing I did, which is decompile the CM11 kernel and swap out the zImage with a AOSP and compile again

Try the one I posted in my ROMs FAQ and see if color control works

It's actually not that hard once you do it at least once, since all you need to do is decompile the boot.img that is included in the nightly zip and swap out the zImage

Correct but if your ROM is a newer build than 1/27, make sure you swap out the libs and kernel I included with the original ones from whatever build you use, as CM does update them every so often
[Nexus 5 Android Development] hanschke:
is this right that I can update the zip with taking the new files from the nightly from my custom rom and change them:confused:
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
So yes it does work, but I guess volume control fails in Google Play Music.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Calkulin:
Correct :good:

Have you tried the r33 test builds?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
Yes. Franco's made some audio changes that conflict with CAF I believe. I flashed your non_CAF enabler and then the standard Franco r32 and r33 tests, and volume is broken on both.

I've also tried using your custom built Franco r32 which doesn't seem to work either.

Also isn't the best way to do this to just re-flash any ROM you are on to go back to the derp? That way you get the newer libs back.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Calkulin:
On my latest CM11 build, v1.4.1, I completely reverted all the CAF changes for audio, display and media, so try it on that build, just do a back up(if you're not running my ROM) and do a fresh install of that build to see if it does work then. If it does, then I'll post what changes are needed to revert those things, if not, then it's probably some framework changes that are needed to it working again
[Nexus 5 Android Development] hanschke:
strange it stuck on google bootlogo with my changes:(
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hatshipuh:
I tried the patch on DroidKang v19 with Franco r32 and it boots just fine.

Everything works but media volume control is broken. It stays on max volume no matter what media volume I set.

[Nexus 5 Android Development] namartlu:
Thanks for the report, so meaning can't use Franco with DK as daily driver... too bad. :(
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Aprophis1987:
I'm using the same setup and everything works just fine...including media volume...:)

[Nexus 5 Android Development] iammuze:
So to be clear, is there now no way to do color correction on CM11 with CAF?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Hatshipuh:
There are several CAF kernel out there which support gamma control.

Tap-a-talked from my Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 Android Development] namartlu:
doesn't work for me... media control not working. I didn't do a clean flash though...
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
Sorry for the late response. Work blocks all these file hosts, so I tried at home last night and did a dirty flash over CM with your version of Franco, and everything worked for me! Gamma, media volume, etc.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] ifti_a:
Does this work with faux kernels and AOKP ? I really like faux kernels but can't live without AOKP either
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Android_Sheriff:
Pardon my ignorance, but what exactly is CAF. I hear it very often being mentioned with CM, but I'm not sure what it is. Can some one be kind enough to point me to a resource?

Thanks.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] -DarkKnight-:
Anyone know of r33 of Franco kernel have media volume fixed or not?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] reddvilzz:
Just a quick explanation CAF is something that is built by CM which doesn't exist on AOSP based ROM and that makes AOSP kernel won't work because AOSP kernel doesn't support CAF. CMIIW
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Android_Sheriff:
Thanks, thats really helpful. I may not know better, but does CAF stand for Custom Aftermarket Firmware by any chance?:o
[Nexus 5 Android Development] Tikerz:
No, CAF stands for Code Aurora Forums. CM merges changes from there into their kernel which is why this thead exists in the first place. https://www.codeaurora.org
