[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emperorsum:
Well.. bro.. I did it.. i reverted back to Xolo ROM from Mobiistar ROM.. I used the multidownloader to flash the Mobiistar ROM into the NAND then used CWM to successfully flash the official Xolo kitkat ROM.

Note that the CWM [MENTION=5004797]minhdangoz94[/MENTION] has given on this thread is outdated. He has made a newer version since then (but only in vietnamese). And only this new version can flash the XOLO ROM. Here is the CWM. It's in vietnamese. but don't worry. it's simple.

And the best part -> don't need adb nor fastboot. :)

So you need to first get the XOLO ROM from XOLO site. Then you will have to edit the zip file using 7-zip or winRar. DON'T EXTRACT THE ZIP. just edit it directly from 7-zip or WinRar. in the zip file within go to "META-INF\com\google\android\" then right click "updater-script" and click "edit".

as shown here

It should open up in notepad and it will be text. pretty jumbled. delete everything from start till the line that says "show_progress" as shown in the image

(as an extra step you can also delete all lines that contain the word "recovery" from end of semi-colon to the next semi-colon as shown here. but this is not really required. I only did this so i don't lose CWM after flashing. there are around 3 lines in total)

Then save the file and exit

if you use 7-zip it will give the following box

Click "OK" and NOW you have your flashable xolo Rom :) .

take the zip put it into sdcard and boot into stock mobistar recovery.

first we need to flash the CWM zip that link i gave earlier on this post. The stock recovery is in English so this shouldn't be a problem.

after this CWM will load.

first go to "cai dat ROM, file zip" then go to "Chon zip tu the nho ngoai". this will take you to your sdcard. browse to where you stored the zip and press the power button. then there will be a bunch of no no no etc. scroll till the line that says "Yes - Install xxx.zip" and click power.

Your device should then flash the xolo ROM. :D :D

After flashing finishes use "Quay Lai" to go back to the main menu. Then click "Khoi dong lai may" to reboot.

I personally think I will stick with the mobiistar ROM as the sound volume on the headphone jack on the XOLO ROM is very low. till this fixes.

but it is now possible to switch between whatever ROM u choose :D and that's the best part :) Also.. don't worry about bricking your device. if anything goes wrong. just flash again using multidownloader and begin from start.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krus_xlfu:
the boot screen did change to xolo from mobiistar but the phone is rebooting everytime. it is also not going to cwm when i press the power and volume buttons.

i have deleted the recovery lines u've mentioned optional.

the kitkat update is from the xolo link u had provided earlier in this thread.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emperorsum:
Also try this -> in the multidownloader go to settings -> configuration and change "download mode" from "upgrade (keep factory data)" to "flash all image".

What I also did was I extracted the mobiistar ROM and multdownloader newly from their respective zips.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emperorsum:
I did the whole thing from start again. it still worked perfectly.

PART I - 1. download & unpack broadcom-multidownloader, 2. download & unpack mobiistar JellybeanROM. 3. point multidowloader to mobii ROM in "flash all image" mode. 3. Flash phone with mobii ROM. Now phone is clean installed with Mobiistar ROM. (note- you don't need to wait till phone boots up as we only need to use the recovery)

PART II - 1. Download kitkat from xolo site (294MB). 2. Remove lines till "show_progress" using winrar or 7-zip. (this time don't do the extra steps. leave the recovery lines. as this also gives you the stock xolo recovery) 3. save file & update zip. 4. Put zip into memory card (eg. in sdcard/archives/kitkat.zip)

PART III - 1. Download vietnamese CWM zip file (2.1MB) 2. put zip in memory card (say sdcard/archives/VietCWM.zip)

Part IV. - 1. Reboot phone. 2. Boot into stock mobiistar recovery. 3. Flash CWM and enter CWM. 4. Now, from CWM, flash kitkat.zip. 5. "Quay Lai" to go back to main menu 6. "Khoi don lai may" to reboot 7. "No" for Disable recovery flash 8. "No" to Root device. 9. Reboot into Xolo kitkat.

I have done this from beginning this time. I downloaded all the files newly. So this method is not dependent on any changes in files.

Very useful post for Xolo Opus owners.

Every thing stated is working now. At least some development is going on. :cool:

But If someone port ColorOS / MIUI / LewaOS to Xolo Opus, It will give a premium look for this device.

I have been using XperiaZ ROM, But Phone,Msg apks were not changed. A lot of development needed.

Please let me know Any ColorOS / MIUI / LewaOS ROM available for Xolo Q1000 Opus???:confused:

After kitkat, Is the phone Rooted or not??
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emperorsum:
No. After kitkat you cannot root the phone for some reason. Can't figure that out yet.

Also, the headphone volume in the Xolo ROM is very very low compared to the mobiistar ROM.

So I am continuing to use the mobiistar Jelly bean ROM. Which i find very good. loud volume :). Only thing, it has a lot of extra apps which has to be deleted. and the language needs to be changed to English at first run. That's kinda all the weak points.

All in all it is a very good ROM. Better than the Xolo Jellybean. I feel. Try it. You can always revert back to XOLO KITKAT using this thread. :)

you can use Kingo to root both the mobiistar Jellybean and Xolo Jellybean. But can't root kit-kat yet. Hopefully Mobiistar will release a rootable kit-kat soon that we at india can use:p
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kartikoli:
Is it fully working?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] awebdesigner09:
Yes. We can try Kitkat But, there is nothing new.

I am using XperiaZ ROM from mobiistar. We may give it a try mean while.:cowboy:

It gives me excellent sound enhancements like/clarity.

I have Viper4Android installed.

I am looking forward for someone who port my favorite ColorOS :p
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emperorsum:
Of course it is fully working.. both devices are exactly the same. and the mobiistar ROM is the official ROM released by the manufacturer itself like how our xolo released their offical ROM. and official stock ROMs usually always work very well. This is because the device manufacturers get the complete chipset specs from the chipset manufacturers so they compile their ROMs with complete hardware knowledge. No guess work etc like we, developers, have to go through :( .

We were lucky that Mobiistar released the Multi-downloader software. It's actually confidential software Broadcom provides to manufacturers that use their chipset. And our Xolo won't even release the GPL kernel source code for their devices. What a shame.

Xolo Q1000 Opus Low Media Sound Fix

Hi Everyone,

Finally I got the solution to get the volume increase in Xolo Q1000 Opus while playing Music and listening it via Handsfree.. Its pretty simple. But its not a permanent Fix. The volume will be keep louder and clear till you got the call or any message sound or notification sound.

Steps to Obtain High Volume on Xolo Q1000 Opus.

Keep all the features disable in volume Like, touch sound, notification sound...etc.

But your phone should not be in silent mode or in low volume mode. Keep the ringer volume full.

* Then open the music player and start playing song. you notice the volume low.

Now the magical thing to obtain high volume. " Come back on home screen..keep the music player running at the background. Now on search option at home you see there is a Mic icon for voice search option. just touch that Icon. Louder notification sound will comes while opening that application. just close it. Along with that Notification sound your media Sound will also reach High like sound booster. That's not a permanent but will be last long till you received any call or other notification sound comes. That reduces the media sound to again that point (Low). This thing works on Jelly Bean. For Kitkat you have to download voice search option from Playstore. Bcoz they have removed the voice search option in KitKat.

I would like to request all the developers to fix this issue permanently.

Don't forget to click like button for can thanks me on whatsapp.

Thanks

I think I may have found a CWM recovery for A880..

I went out looking for a CWM Recovery for A880 I found this post, in it a man claims to have built a CWM Recovery for A880.

Now, I don't belive him too much, because I bricked my last device(STAR N9389) this way.

[General Questions and Answers] kanishk8:
I am so much interested in Android and app development but the problem is i dont know any of the languages ? is it necessary to learn Java for Android app development ??
[General Questions and Answers] shimp208:
In reality learning Java is essential for Android development, as Android apps are primarily written in Java. Alternatively you could look at the Android NDK which allows you to use C/C++ code in your apps. Other possibilities that aren't as straightforward include Python, with PySide or certain HTML5 frameworks that promise cross platform support. Let me know if you still have questions.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] ag3mo:
Anyone know if it's possible to get rid of the T-Mobile sound on boot? I'm rooted with a custom recovery but unable to get s-off if that helps anything.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] tony_5309:
Just name both files .bak at the end or just delete the 2 all together with your favorite root explorer.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] GinoAMelone:
Should we delete the whole animation, or just the two jingle files at the top of the list?
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] theminigame:
I'm thinking Just the jingle files. Deleting the whole animation would probably leave you with the classic, metallic "android" boot animation, as the T-Mobile part was probably just packed in to the original animation...

For safety reasons, I would do the "bak" thing, that way you still have easy access to those files if something goes wrong.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] ag3mo:
Thanks for this. For some reason when I tried renaming the files with root explorer it looked like it worked but after reopening the app the files had reverted back to their original filenames. No idea what's going on with that. I ended up going into TWRP and renaming there which worked.
[T-Mobile HTC One (M8)] Behold_this:
Since you are s-on, you can't make directly make system changes while booted to OS. All changes will be reverted because you actually are not writing to system, it only appears that way. HTCs kernel provides system rw protection which prevents modification to system partition. You have three options, flash a custom kernel, use flar2s system rw mod, or reboot to twrp recovery and make changes using its built in file manager (changes made while in recovery will stick).
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] tommy_riley:
On my previous HTC EVO 4G LTE, I had a nice HTC Photo Frame widget. I understand it might be locked in with the Sense UI as it's an HTC widget, but I was surprised to see it not included on the HTC One M8.

I've tried a few widgets from the play store, but none are as elegant, simplified, and fully functional as the HTC version.

Is there a way to extract this widget from the older HTC phones and use it on the M8? I still have access to my evo for a few more days before I send it back to sprint (good riddance), so if there is something for me to try to get it from the evo, i'm down.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] lordodrag86:
Bump for this. I'm really curious as to why HTC would remove these Photo Gallery widgets from the M8
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] gokun:
Another bump for this....I copied the old sense 5 apk to system/app and set permissions to rwrr then rebooted.

The widget appeared and would let me try to assign it to a home screen, but as soon as I did, I got a error msg saying widget stopped working.

So it can be installed but crashes out....maybe you need to be deodexed?

I would love to see someone port this so that it did work though...
[HTC One S] CrackedHippo:
Hey guys.

I wanted to root my HTC One S, and I read that the program SuperOneClick was the fastest way of doing it, so I went ahead and connected the HTC to my PC with the USB cable and clicked "root". After like 15 minutes however the program didn't do anything, it just froze and I had to close it. Root Checker Basic said something similiar to no valid root or something. Tried to click "unroot" now so I could start again with a different method, froze again, closed SuperOneClick again. What am I supposed to do now? Is rooting it again safe as I now probably have some half / corrupted root? And can someone link me to the best method? Thanks in advance.
[HTC One S] LS.xD:
One-click-roots are not suggested...

Did you unlock the bootloader?
[HTC One S] CrackedHippo:
Just unlocked the bootloader and flashed cwm, my own fault for using superoneclick. Thanks anyway ;p
[HTC One S] CrackedHippo:
Sorry for the double post. I may need some help as I probably bricked(?) my One S.

Didn't do anything root-related for a long time so I think I made a beginner's mistake.

What I did was unlock (htcDEV), and flash CWM recovery.

I tried installing liquid kitkat custom rom, but now it won't boot, not even in recovery.

Help?

Sorry for the foolish comment but I actually have no idea if it's S4 or S3, how do I find out?

Also what should I do right now? Flash stock rom on it or..?

FIRST you need to know which phone / firmware you got.

[HTC One S] LS.xD:
HTC One S - S4 ville - generic dutch version ;)

You will just need to flash the kernel contained in the rom (boot.img) via fastboot (S-ON means u need to flash kernel manually) to fix your installation

Generally I'd suggest

Flash this recovery via fastboot --> TWRP 2.7.0.8

(its compatible to the lastest CM11 versions 05/01/2014 and newer :)

And may be try PAC rom ;) (I just love it)
[HTC One S] CrackedHippo:
I indeed just flashed the boot.img seperately which was in the rom, and now it works. It's a huge relief to see my phone work again, thanks a lot!!

One more thing so I avoid messing up in the future; When I decide to install another rom, do I always do a factory reset / clear cache, then flash the rom and flash the kernel via fasboot?
[HTC One S] LS.xD:
FULL wipe --> format system, data, cache, dalvik --> flash rom --> immediately go to fastboot and flash the kernel --> reboot and done

Just try to get S-OFF, then the kernel get installed with the rom via recovery ;)

Looks like I was cheering too early. Roughly 1 minute after launching my phone, .comSystemGUI or something along those lines stopped working, and whenever I pressed "ok" the message would instantly return.

This topic guided me into getting the sdcard mountable again, but in the process I lost the rom .zip file.

And my phone won't boot anymore, it doesn't get past the HTC logo, so I can't put a new rom on it and flash it.

What is there left for me to do? Stock rom? How do I find the stock rom?

Thanks in advance.
[HTC One S] CrackedHippo:
I figured it out, thanks for your guidance LS.xD!

Basically what I did was mount the SD storage in CWM and transfer Pac-man rom onto the storage, then flash the .zip, flash Gapps and finally in bootloader fastboot the boot.img (because I'm S-ON). Maybe this will help anyone.

EDIT: Someone may wanna be careful with using TWRP, it corrupted my SD storage for a while.
[HTC One S] LS.xD:
SD card bug can also be caused by CWM or flashing a rom (Viper really loves to brick SD). I never had any issues with TWRP. The only SD card bug I had in over a year flashing roms to my One S was caused by flashing CWM ;)

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
no maps running in the background? its taking 59% of the battery! your issue is probably google maps, not gps. look at your maps settings, maybe something. also, reboot. ive seen maps act like this before, for many. do you use greenify? something to look at as well.
