Installation Guide

1. Go to Recovery (CWM/TWRP)

2. Wipe System,Data,Delvik-Cache, Cache

3. Choose Flash Zip from SDCARD....

Cautions

DO NOT wipe Data/Delvik-Cache/Cache after the installation!

Common Problems

1. Gravity Box, Xposed not working after flashing rom!

- Clear xposed and gravity box data, then install xposed and active gravity box.

2. Statusbar not transparent.

-To to gravity box>Statusbar>Notification Drawer> Transparency.... then set ur desired Transparency

3. Google Play giving 'No connection' error.

- Go to /system/etc and delete the hosts file.... reboot

4. Google play not working....

-Add an account first..... Preferably add an account during the first setup or from the settings menu.... then launch google play....

5.OTA updater not working...

-DO NOT CHANGE the build.prop file..... otherwise you'll not get any update due to no valid android id.....

6. Rom isn't looking like the screenshots!

-You MUST HAVE CLEARED CACHE/DELVIk-CACHE/DATA after installation.... DO NOT DO THIS!

if u face any more bug, feel free to post about it here or PM me through FB......

Bro i see that u have done a good job! but xda wont allow u to post something without download links!! u should have posted after releasing the rom!! and u cant claim this as the best ui ever!! moderator will soon mark this as spam and ban ur id !
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jamius19:
about unexpected delay in releasing

Sorry fellas, for not having the rom released yet!

During the final test, its framework files were found broken(9 patch png's were broken), and can't be recompiled....

so we're delayed...... :(

but now its almost fixed and hoping for releasing the rom in 3/4 days.....

NB for moderators: Please don't remove this thread, as it wasn't my intentional fault... :(

If it hasn't happened the rom would be on the business by now!

Hoping for ur kind appreciation regarding this matter! :)

just flashed carliv touch recovery and custom rom.... rebooting....;)

Edit: no problems. I have just erased some apps wich in won´t use (share, system optimize and others)

I will comment in one or two days when i test it well.

One doubt, i selected external sd as default (no internal). At this moment...when i install an app, what do i have to choose? install or install to sdcard? this option about install to sdcard is always active even if you dont select external sd card as your defalut storage location?

thanks!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jayXzMx:
Yes.. Ext is my default location.. As rom is to small for now days..:o

I have a A850+ with S119 installed and only english/chinese. So - I just downloaded S118 BUT:

Before I brick my phone, can I use this ROM to flash or do I send it to heaven when flashing with S118?

Thank you very much!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jayXzMx:

Hello, jayXzmx...I am Spanish...sorry for my bad english;)

I'm following your work with Lenovo A850+. I'm waiting for it to arrive from China.

Two questions:

I have read in the forum that are trying to make a rom of a model of THL...I hope you get it:good::good::good:

Custom rom S124 is multilanguaje rom?

Thanks and great job

(sorry for mi very very bad english)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jayXzMx:
Olla feligres, S124 is en/cn language only.. Thanks becuase following my thread.. As i said.. Im not pro.. So for porting rom still not successful.. But have fix for mounting issue.. Need time to make it work.:)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Techmodrome:
Question:

I boot in recovery (phone already has root!) and I chose update from SDcard.

But every time it quits with an error. Filename is update.zip and I try 118.

(By the way, is that Multilanguage?)

Anyhow - I am going crazy... :(

You can help me?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jayXzMx:
S118 is multilanguage but S124 only en/cn.. Try to redownload.. I think u have corrupted file.. As other can flash successfully it should be fine with urs also..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jatuhbangunlari:
Any suggestion for any mod/tweak that works perfectly n increase prfrmance on this phone?

By the way,nice job bro..

Malaysia Bolehhhh!!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Techmodrome:
The file is ok, as I can extract the ZIP fully on my PC. I put it on root directory but it

does not flash. I also have a Lenovo A708T and there I have the same problem with

ROMs I download before.

There must be something really stupid I am doing wrong.

1. Copy the "update.zip" onto the root of the SD Card

2. Power Off the phone

3. Power on with both V+&V- pressed together

4. Chosing English as Language

5. wipe user data

6. install update package

7. yes

8. "install failure" a large red button and it only says "back".

Aaaarrrggghhhhh :( :( :(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] leesiangcheng:

Any other ideas? I simply do not understand what I am doing wrong!

Getting crazy here... :(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jayXzMx:
Ermmm... Around 2 hours.. If not mistaken.. But for me i still prefer S118 multilanguage..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jayXzMx:
What is the error u have.. As i said.. If u have error 7 it will be fine.. Or else u need to change ur sdcard and redownload.. Sometimes it because of file corrupted.. Just try..:eek:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] leesiangcheng:
I think u didn't flash custom recovery.

---------- Post added at 12:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:30 AM ----------

S124 sometime go 15mins per %..i can't find what is draining the battery. The last rom i flash the battery can last 4-5 hours per% .other then that ur rom feel very fast. Even antutu score is higher. Hope i can find what happen to the battery.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Techmodrome:
Bros,

I don´t think the file is corrupt as I have unpacked it on pc and every single file is ok. If a file is corrupt, you are simply not able to unpack, so I think this is not the reason. Here the steps how I try to flash from before again (more detailed):

1. Copy the "update.zip" onto the root of the SD Card

I renamed the file to update.zip before.

2. Power Off the phone

3. Power on with both V+&V- pressed together

I get the phone into the recovery Mode. You can

do the same to understand what I am talking about

and understand my next step.

4. Chosing English as Language

You can chose chinese and english here. I tap on the

English button.

5. wipe user data

I wipe all the user data by taping its so named button

6. install update package

I tap the button saying the above.

7. yes

I confirm this step by a tap on the button "yes"

8. "install failure" a large red button and it only says "back".

After showing the typical Android "waiting circle" for about

one second, a red crossed button appears, and a green

button saying "back". On the top its says "recovery failed".

So WHAT am I doing wrong? My phone is rooted (confirmed

by AnTuTu and the Memorycard freshly formated with only the

update.zip file on it.

Can anybody of you give me a "step by step" instruction like I

did or tell me WHAT am I doing wrong?

This is anoying, as I would like to start with my A850+ to work

and setup, which is not possible right now....

I am sad! :(

Help me Obi Wan Kenobi!

Thanks folks...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] leesiangcheng:
What recovery u using? Stock recovery can't flash custom rom.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jayXzMx:
Please read on the 1st page.. Use custom recovery to flash custom rom.. As this rom is for custom recovery.. Is not for official recovery..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Techmodrome:
That is maybe the problem. How I change the recovery? Can anyone give me a detailed instruction on how to proceed? I am a rookie in reflashing Androids, so please help!

:(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jayXzMx:
Root your phone.. Download mobileuncle mtk tool.. Download carliv recovery for A850+ on another thread.. Open mobileuncle and update recovery via mobileuncle.. See instruction via carliv recovery thread..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Techmodrome:
I have to say thank you 100000 times. It worked. Now I try to do the same with my Lenovo A708T and if I can do I am very happy. Many thank for the Rom and the help! This FORUM IS SUPERERP!

I tried s124 rom isn't multilanguage.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jayXzMx:
S124 is not multilanguage.. Only S119
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Feligres:
Hello, jayXzMx

I've seen that you've updated the first post, providing new information and version s119.

The version s118 is multilanguage? believed that if.

Thanks for you work, an sorry for my bad english.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jayXzMx:
Hello.. Yurpp.. Just update for the S119.. Without any browser include.. So u can choose any browser u want.. Just download from playstore.. And for now only S119 is multilanguage as the official lenovohome.net only provide that version under multilanguage..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Techmodrome:
I have some questions again:

1. I now have S118, if I update to S119 the same way I flashed the S118,

all my setup and data gone again? If I backup my data I can restore under

S119 without any loss of data?

2. Are there any known bugs on bluetooth? Detailed: I can receive foto from any

phone except my Nokia 1520. BUT: My Lenovo A708T can receive photo

from N1520, so it looks to me like the bug is in the A850+ firmware. :(

3. Any chance to get S124 with Multilanguage support?

Slightly OT: Does anybody of you experts know a recovery Image for

my A708T and a Multilanguage ROM? I know this is A850+ thread,

but maybe someone of you know some good source!

Everything I could find is chinese or needrom (which is unfortunately

blocked here in China) :(

Thank you!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jayXzMx:
1 : it should be fine as the rom is not wiping all data as im not set the rom under wipe system or data.. But recommended u to wipe all as it will crash some apps in the system.. Or u just make nandroid backup 1st.. Once done flash S119 u can do advance restore and just select restore data... Which is it will restore ur data only..

2: if u be able to receive data transfering via bluetooth from others mobile.. It should be fine to receive from ur nokia too.. (Its wierd :eek: )

3 : maybe.. So later ill check if can be done for sure ill make it n will update it.

OT: i dont have that model so i cant help u with that..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Techmodrome:
Ok, so is there a versions history that tells the benefit of upgrading from S118 to S119? I am

not a "versions junky" so if there is no massive bugfix that recommends the upgrade, I better

wait for S124 is available in ML to prevent me from doing the backup job twice.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jayXzMx:
S119 as i know it fix charging screen off bug.. But S124 got issue with wifi tethering.. S124 ill fix later.. As now im concertrat on customing rom..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] leesiangcheng:

Maps 8.1.0

Hello

I own this phone and have been figthing for two days trying to solve a problem with google maps. Maps 8.1.0 always crashes ("unfortunately, maps has stopped"), a few seconds after launch. Maps 8.0.0 works.

No other application has any problem.

I tried cleaning caches, then reset to factory configuration and finally flashing the three available versions of the firmware (previously wiping all from carliv recovery). No luck.

I think now it's time to make a silly question, Maps v8.1.0 is working for you all A850+ owners, isn't it?.

thanks
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jayXzMx:
Hello... Try to update all gapps that u have.. as i not a google map user.. will check later.. try to use the S119 rom.. as it should be most stable rom that i get..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] leesiangcheng:
K confirmed google map works on s118 .but for s119 something wrong with play store and google service. Try the second time but still no luck.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] prv100:
Hello

jayXzMx, I tested everytime with gapps up to date.

leesiangcheng, was it v8.1.0 when it worked?. I ask because I've discovered that different google users are been offered different "last versions" from google Play. Configuring my son's account in my phone makes Play offer 8.0.0. Switching back to my account and Play again wants me to install 8.1.0.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jayXzMx:
Try to let it update it self for a while.. As it original playstore/gapps from official rom.. Or u just try to update manually.. It should be fine..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jayXzMx:
Ermmmm.. Thats weird.. Let me check later..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Feligres:
Hello, jayXzMx...I'm testing a few days ago from the S119 version multilanguage and upgrade of google service and play store is not effected. The manually update not working.

Except this, the rom is perfectly.

Good job and see if you can solve.

Thanks

More information, jayXzMx:

I installed the original version S119 multilanguage, and I have rooted the smarphone only. The update of google service and play store is ok.

There is a problem with your version S119 and the updates of google services.

I hope you can fix, because your work is very good with this phone.

Thanks

[Miscellaneous Android Development] nakTT:
3G and wifi issue is a big let down if you are playing games like CoC.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kulimboy:
One of my friend use A850+ with S118 firmware also have intermittent wifi and 3g problem. Seems like the same s119. Hope S124 fixed this.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jayXzMx:
as i reflash and reflash again n again.. wifi connection should be fine.. but stock rom wifi setting is under smartsetting which is will turn off connection when there is no activity or screen off.. as all of the rom ive upload is stock n nothing change unless zipalign n inject init.d support..

try to make sure u format system/data/cache n wipe dalvik before flashing rom..

rom will have issue if u just directly flash without wipe all.

later ill upload S119 n S124 which is totally stock cwm flashable without zipalign or init.d support..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Feligres:

could you make the port of thl rom?

[Miscellaneous Android Development] jayXzMx:
yes bro.. im still working on that as the problem for now is the softkey still not working n storage mount is not mount properly.. as there is still no mtk6592 source code available.. so i tried to figure it out by my self..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Feligres:
Ok...You might try porting a Miui rom. Many octa-core models MT6592 have their version of Miui, for example X8 Brand Iocean.

There are many people developing Miui, and could help.

Do you have wifi and 3g data connection problem using S124? using S119 I can only use internet for a while and then the phone hang up. Need to off and on back wifi or 3g data connection to continue use internet.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] p1old1:
I could not answer that as im not using 3g a lot. But as for wifi I think there is no bug.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ashwin1234:
Same here, using the S124 before it was pulled. No connection bugs at all, just the google maps 8.1 will crash, so i just downgraded to 8.0. In fact, on S118 from the shop, I had this bug where the phone would crash if locked when a 3d app/ game was running. Now it is completely gone and has never crashed or restarted even once! I can upload the ROM zip here, but I don't think the TS would approve of it
