[Android General] NoxOn3:
Well, its up to you which gapps you Use. Papsis package is full, mine are very simple (no sync stuff and so on, Account has to be set by yourself).

No extra step needed.
[Android General] mumfordfan:
There are 20 packages in Papsi's link, wich one to choose?
[Android General] papsi177:
You need to choise package for CM 10.1
[Android General] mumfordfan:

do i have to unzip the pac_hwu9508_4.2-milestone.1.release_20140606-200416.zip file to the sd card or the external card?

Failed to verify whole file signature
[Android General] NoxOn3:
Please, be sure to know what you Do! Cause you don't even seem to know, in which Format a custom comes. Missing knowledge can cause a HARDBRICKED phone.
[Android General] mumfordfan:
I have put the pac_hwu9508_4.2-milestone.1.release_20140606-200416.zip on my external SD card.

Then install zip from sd card.

I am sure i've followed the instructions in the first post.

What file do I have to modify, and can I just modify the file in the zip, and the install ??

I have the chinese recovery installed is that one correct for installing your ROM ??

Thanks again

Someone need to write a good guide for installing your ROM
[Android General] papsi177:
You need to open rom in winrar or somethink like this, go to meta-inf/google/..../update-script and open this file in notepade(double click) Edit how i wrote befor, save changes, again save changes in archive, after that bingo) you can try to flash..

Or extract update-script from archive only, edit and add again in archive..

:rolleyes:Hello Papsi's i am up and running with your ROM .

There are some problems wich I cannot live with.

1) unstable Apps wit force close

2) The Cyanogen filemanager doesn't read files only folders

3) drain of battery.

I hope you will ever get enough donations to buy a awesome motherboard. :angel:.

Because this Rom looks very very promising.

I am not the only one with the problems.

I hope we'll ever get the proper drivers then this device would really rock.

Thanks a millionfor your help and hard work!!

For now, I am in search for a B804 GROM

system UI force close - (possible) SOLUTION

Hello my dear friends, it's me again.

I just wanted to tell you that I found a solution for my system UI force close-error. I searched the internet lots of times and now finally found this: it appeared because I always disable the quick settings.

Enabling them again solves the system UI force close fortunately.

Now I can use this ROM without any problems! Papsi, thanks again for this amazing ROM and I really hope that you're going to be able to develop further with a new motherboard. :good:

I did it and then i got status 6 error...

Why its more stable CM-10.1 UNOFFICIAL beta2 ? In logs its sais that it has no bugs exept fm radio. I also tried EternityProject CM10.1 and it was full of bugs.

Can't help you further, ask synthor http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2039998&page=757

EternityProject never brought us a stable rom.
[Android General] joop1ter:
Good job on fixing the binary script. it seem stable. It has some issues with lag from time to time. But you did a good job here.

So I am now about a week on this rom and it is pretty stable. But its not perfect. Gallery is crashing when you want to edit a picture.

Ram management is messed up

It's not recognizing all the device ram that it 1mb.

Hybride mod and rom manager is not working good as well. I can't change color on battery. I cant use the navigation bar and set it up as well.

If you change to the phablet mod nothing happens. You just get navigation bar and you can't go back to stock mod.

Tethering is working really slow. To much on Bluetooth transfer.

If you activate airplane mod you need the reboot your phone to deactivate

And here is a benchmark. It's way Les than the stock rom that has scored 22k

after one day use ,

Bug

-camera is close by itself (no force close sign show)

-gallery is take too long time to show the picture i click (1 gb ram version)

-can't set an apn on first boot (after reboot it i can set)

-overall smoothness need to be improve (IMHO)

-3g draining the battery so fast (may be it's happen to all other phone)

-pictur taken from stock rom is better than CM

anyway, i think i could live with it :)

ps. how to turn off buttons backlight?
[Android General] NoxOn3:
As gallery use quickpic, easier and faster.

For overall smoothness and battery drain use v6 supercharger.

I'll give a link to a nice little package that has all needed files inside.

1. Download and extract this https://app.box.com/s/wlsrruov0pp7zsfb1bpb package.

2. Install script manager and busybox installer, open bb installer, scroll to the top of the busy boxes, then install the zip, zipalign and sqlite binaries to /bin.

3. Replace the existing services.jar in /system/framework with root Explorer or similar (should be no need to set permissions cause of papsis script, but if you know how to, then do it manually for your safety) .

4. Reboot, if it isn't forced because of the replaced file.

5. Wait for booting up (might take a while because of the dalvik rewrite)

6. Then open script manager & run the supercharger script as root. Just follow the instructions on screen and you'll be done in a few minutes

Hit Thanks if it Helped!
[Android General] neurosis130:
maybe v6 supercharger could be included in the next release
[Android General] sb1976:
Hi NoxOn3,

could you help me out with the supercharger script please? BB tells me the zipaling binaries are missing, plus I could not find the sqlite binaries (plus not sure which other zip you mean to install with BB). Thanks in advance.

System UI force close

Hello guys,

I have the same problem as FrankyHouse, flashed the ROM multiple times (tried dirty flash, factory reset, even wiped everything but the external sd card), but everytime I restore my apps with Titanium Backup and then restart my phone, System UI always force closes (when I hit OK it appears again after some seconds) and there's no background image and the notification bar is gone too. I also can't open the recent apps display anymore, but my homescreen and every other app works well.

And with the gapps-package by noxon3 the initial google-setup doesn't work, so there are no contacts, no bookmarks in the browser and no automated app installation, which makes me really mad after 4 days of trying to get it to work properly.

I would be really grateful if somehow gave me an solution that actually works.. :(
[Android General] NoxOn3:
OK, open bb installer, open the busybox chooser and scroll to the top, there are zip, sqlite and zipalign binaries. Install them to /bin and NOT /xbin (this is where busybox is installed to)

Hit Thanks if it Helped!
[Android General] papsi177:
About which 4 days are you talking for?? First one..please dont restore the apps with titanium!! This is not stock firmware, it is different.. Install clean the apps as new..
[Android General] NoxOn3:
Your just to lazy to do the backups / restores manually. Sorry for words like that, but I'm running this build for over a week without those problems and sorry, but maybe start thinking with your own brain instead of begging others. If you don't know how to manually backup your contacts, you probably should stop messing around with your phone and use an official firmware.

And you should be aware of that the data which are restored may be incompatible with this rom. Restore only necessary data.

And for the future : maybe get your brain an update for Android usage.

Thanks, that did it! Did not know that the "Select Busy Box Version" had more things to select. Still need to get into the BB topic.

Hit thanks already! Cheers
[Android General] Robi.WanKenobi:
Whoa, no mean to insult anyone!

I am not that much a noob, I've had a HTC HD2 before and successfully flashed several ROMs and restored everything with Titanium Backup, so I thought it would work with this phone as well.

And by 4 days I mean that I've been through several ROMs (Kholk's CM, Batty's CM, MIUI) but everyone had at least one error that made it impossible for me to use my phone properly.

If you tell me that I can't use Titanium, everything is fine, I just didn't know that it doesn't work ;)

And of course I just restored data that shouldn't mess around with the Android System (apps like games, facebook, whatsapp and so on), nothing like my contacts or bookmarks (they normally are restored with google sync, but this didn't work with the gapps by noxon3).

So, now I'm trying to set everything up by myself, if that System-UI-force-close-error still appears, I'm really asking you for help!
[Android General] Robi.WanKenobi:
So, now I just flashed the ROM as being said in the first post (phone is unlocked and has TWRP), installed some of my apps via PlayStore (I used absolutely no Titanium Backup) rebooted it and the System UI crashes. It boots normally to where you have to enter your PIN and then this dialogue appears.

I have no idea what I did wrong. So if anyone please has an idea?
[Android General] sb1976:
Maybe you should do a full-wipe if not already tried so. I wiped everything but external storage (since the ROM was stored there for installation) and it worked fine. Did you try to install Mangusta's ROM - if that worked without issues then this should, too.
[Android General] Robi.WanKenobi:
I've already did that several times. Wiped everything except the external storage, only did a factory reset or even did a dirty flash, there was always the System UI force close after rebooting.

I previously had Mangusta's ROM on my phone, which worked well except some minor errors.

Maybe the System UI FC is caused by an app that I've installed? But I don't know which one could cause this.
[Android General] papsi177:
I really dont known what i can do for you..Just install all again and beginn from official firmware..
[Android General] sb1976:
How about a step-by-step approach: don't install any tweak tools you are running (Boot Manager, CPU Tuner, RAM Mgrs, Xposed, ...) and no alternative launcher and see if that works - otherwise only start with a clean slate and not even GAPPS and then step-by-step installation. Cumbersome but maybe that helps you find the error.
[Android General] Robi.WanKenobi:
Okay, I'll just wait for the next update and than try again. I'm now flashing Mangusta's ROM again..

But papsi, thanks for your work! I really like PacMan-ROMs, that's why I'm so disappointed, that somehow my phone has something against this. Keep up the good work! :)
[Android General] papsi177:
So,guys) I have one think.. And this can be true.. I dont advise to use any TWRP for flashing custom roms..I think TRWP for our device is working not correct(You known trwp was made for P6, and after that it was port to U9508) I think it has some errors in fstab and partitions..But this is my imho. Anyway the people who install PacMan with trwp(on 4pda) have many problems..who used chinese recovery or my recovery, dont have any problems..It just a think:laugh:

Thanks NoxOn. Honestly, I just googled the problem since unfortunately I have not time to go into the details of custom ROM development.

However I can recommend this ported app form NOKIA - the MixRadio. I just installed it on the PacMan ROM and it works (not fully tested yet and still has bugs of course). So not related to this topic but hopefully helps to entertain while developing the next release:

[Android General] papsi177:
I dont see a reason to add it to the build. It is not big problem to install V6 . You have to install just two things- busyboxinstaller and any script manager. If you meen to add V6 service to the kernel, it is also not big problem. Just you need to repack boot.img to abb it to init.rc
[Android General] NoxOn3:
It ain't that easy. At first you need a properly patched services.jar. Without a proper patched one(i.e. Web patcher)

The service doesn't run 100% proper. Dunno why,... Maybe just add the patched services.jar to the next build, without any other stuff for it. Or maybe as flushable zip.

So people who wants to supercharge it, can do it and those who won't can run the phone without it.
