Mod rom (beta 2)

OK, guys, this is beta 2 and I want to thank you for your suggestions. I still have some known issues, but it is overall way more stable and eye-candy. It could be called an RC, but with these known bugs I can't. To my knowledge there persist some rough edges and the ridiculous bug in Profile Switcher the ridiculous bug in changing between Simple and Standard UI (whatever, who the hell uses Simple UI?). I added Live Wallpapers support (credits to [MENTION=6033296]rac69[/MENTION]), some beautiful animations by [MENTION=3873953]eng.stk[/MENTION] (really, now I use animations scaled at 1.5x, before this, I always deactivated animations), a heavily modded build.prop (the phone is detected as a Nexus 4 and you can download Facebook, APUS Launcher, etc.), a basic set of minimal-as-hell apps with nicer icons (heck, I even modded Huawei's Calculator app and the horrible Huawei app's icons) and the list of changes from all previous MOD ROM versions are still applying.

IMPORTANT RECOMENDATIONS:

1) I deactivated Huawei's Power Management because it interferes with Greenify and I prefer to have Greenify installed but is not FOSS, so, install it from Play Store.

2) Freeze or deactivate Huawei Theme Manager. If you don't plan to change your EMUI theme you are better off disabling Huawei Theme Manager. This app is a heavy load for Y530's RAM.

3) If you are having problems with swap, replace superSU with Kinguser for managing superuser privileges.

And, hey! This is still beta work. It is gonna get even better, but at this moment I may take a pause for a couple of weeks and I want you to enjoy the progress I feel it's been achieved until now.

So, this is THE LINK:

https://mega.nz/#!3xsHUJZT!KNc56mbS5KyOX64BwaGQOHLHme0WKo8txhXgzGJRONg

INSTALLING:

This is a Nandroid Backup (still using this method).

1) Uncompress the date-named folder inside /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup

2) Reboot into recovery and go to advanced restore option, select "restore system" then start restore.

3) Wipe cache and dalvik cahe.

4) Reboot normally

ANY FEEDBACK WILL BE WELCOME.

PS. I finally figured out how to share a damn folder in MEGA. So, this is the folder containing individual APK files and other useful stuff bundled in this MOD ROM.

Virtual Memory

Guys I need your avice. Which is the best virtual memory/swap out there. Room expander/Simple Root Swap ?!
[General Questions and Answers] Juro.janosik:
RAM expander
[General Questions and Answers] joker925:
I need your help...i have b189 rooted and with unlocked bootloader; few days ago I put into system/app the SystemUI.apk file that CENTSOARER shared in the Mega folder coming from his new modded rom...after that, I've been able to see only half of my statusbar, like you can see in the picture.

I don't want to use dload method to restore the whole system, so, if you can tell me how to make this statusbar full visible, or how to restore the previous Ui without passing through dload method, i'll be grateful :)

Thank you so much, wainting answers

[General Questions and Answers] :
No straight answers here. The straightest is you need to restore your original B189's SystemUI.

How? Well, first you should try my complete MOD ROM, not in parts, because it is based on a different firmware (B515) and therefore a slightly different framework.

Now, how, really.

1) Extract original SystemUI from update.app in dload folder using Huawei Update extractor for Windows, extract and push or copy it to /system/app/

2) Extract from a nandroid backup using Nandroid Manager, for example, and push or copy to /system/app

3) Ask gently to our peers for his/her SystemUI.apk file, maybe someone has B189 firmware

4) Restore a nandroid backup

just want to leave a feedback for this mod...AWESOME!!

i was using the mod v3 and it drying my battery very fast,not shure why, this one instead it's nearly perfect for me, for how i use the phone i didn't found any bug yet and the battery come back to life again.

Good job and thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] joker925:
Thank you so much for your answer! I'll try as soon as possible.

About your roms, i've alredy tried to restore your latest one and also your v2, but my phone was always failing...it restored your nandroid backups but got stopped on bootloop when rebooting. With your latest, it was saying that internal memory was damaged. In the end (i can't remember how) i made it booting but it couldn't read the SIM card (so the phone was nearly useless)...rebooting, deleting data, cache and dalvik was useless, nothing changed, the only way to get out was restoring b189.

Seems that my phone don't like modding...

Thanks again for your help!

[General Questions and Answers] :
I had this problem and got rid of it by just formating my internal and external sd cards. I know it is a lot to ask (and I am not really asking, just saying) to format sd cards but once in a while is kind of healthy to wipe everything and start over from a clean state. I am a tinkerer, so I had a lot of things laying there that were useless and were apparently damaging my experience with my phone.

Mod system apk's

Hey guys !, I modified some images of the system apk 's and these are the results... these apk 's are compatible with Censorated MOD v3.

***Installation***

Download This file:

https://mega.nz/#!RdNTWJiZ!68DM3fAiJHdXjNN18ROz3gKQ8TdbYrkPfCf2ONUOPeg

Un-zip the files and then copy to: System/app and replace it.

***IMPORTANT+++

There's a file called HWDeskClok.apk, this file replaces the original Huawey Apk, if you want to run this file , you will need to do:

First: Erase the Odex File

second: Wipe Factory Reset

if not, will not work

And, ONLY in this File you must delete de Odex File, I REPEAT ONLY IN THIS FILE.

Here are some pictures .

This Mod if Fast

Ok this is your best mod. It is better than your previous mod v3. Man you got the midus touch with mods. No lag so far plus there is a lot of space left to install apps.

Glad you got rid of the google apps bloat. We should install what google apps we need. Also since huawei theme is gone phone operating more smoothly.

Some suggestions:

Is it possible to color the wifi, battery and phone signal icons? They are just pure white. Also please add battery percentage to true in the build prop.

Looking forward to the final version.

UPDATE:

After some more testing there is a little lag by apps like facebook, gmail, bbm. So some optimization or tweaking for these types of apps that hog memory might be needed.
[General Questions and Answers] Animu619:
I agree with everything you said there, but I'd like to point out that those apps are laggish by nature when it comes to this phone. As you said, this mod rom is the best he's made, and beta 2 fixed practically all the bugs that beta 1 had, hope it keeps growing :thumbup:
[General Questions and Answers] JuanDxD24:
What happen with cm roms?

Why the developers did not stop losing time doing "MOD ROMS" which only have change in appearance and no change in functionality, and start making real CM roms? because the speed up 4.0 of Dante FX is totally a fake and that this incomplete CM11 have put aside. I not understand that
[General Questions and Answers] :
I only can speak for myself here. I do not call myself a developer, I can code very simple scripts and modify UIs, some XMLs, tweak stuff from the knowledge I can gather and bundle all together as well as I can. I do not have a developer profile, VisualTech and PieroV and messi2050 they are developers and they have tried as hard as they can allow themselves to help for free, but they have limitations with money, work and summarizing with living their lives.

Again, speaking for myslef, this is what I can do and you can use it for free or not use it at all. I can and if I consider it does worth it I will try to build a custom ROM, but the device is getting old and I am planning to pass it over to my dad or someone else when the time comes. In this moment I want to build the best MOD ROM I can deliver with what we know right now, if I have enough time I will try my best building CM or MIUI, but I am not a developer, most probably my build will never even boot.

PS. MOD ROMs have been adding functionalities since they were released.

Yes [MENTION=6033296]rac69[/MENTION], that is a hardware limitation. 512 MB RAM appears to be lesser than what developers consider standard, as a matter of fact, the only thing that can impact on performance of this bloated apps is some swap space (man, facebook app is bloated everywhere and it requires facebook messenger app too in order to manage facebook messages). I use Firefox for Android in my phone, and if there is a webpage relying on a lot of JavaScript stuff I can't even have one tab open, once I activate my swap partition I can easily open 5 tabs without crashing Firefox for Android. Now, that's for keeping the apps working, not really for performance.

There are some tweaks I apply every boot on cpu governor, kernel samepage merging (this is important for RAM usage) and entropy generation (in my experience, this is more than a placebo and makes things responsiver). The problem is this settings are hardcoded in libraries and binaries and I can't tweak these to deliver it in a MOD ROM, the solution most people use is to add this tweaks as init.d scripts, but our stock kernel does not support init.d and we would need to emulate it, but again, it requires users to deal with apps and configurations right after installing the MOD ROM and not all init.d-emulating apps are compatible with our phone. Anyway, I have shared those scripts and the MOD ROM is prepared with all necesary binaries to run them.

de todas formas, yo aprecio su trabajo y todo lo relacionado con ello, pero creo que es mejor empezar a desarrollar alguna custom ROM.

---------- Post added at 11:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:50 PM ----------

Anyway, I appreciate your work and everything connected with it, but I think you better start to develop some custom ROM.
[General Questions and Answers] :
We have tried for months now. PieroV has compiled a CM that boots and his CWM recovery based on a KK kernel is the best, I have tried really hard to debug eloy’s build audio in call, we both have failed on providing a functional system. VisualTech tried to build a custom kernel and his effort did not come to fruition. If you have the skills I will try to help you all the way you go but in this moment I think a CM will not come and I better work on something that I can deliver.

Yes, It is frustrating.

Unlocking Bootloader

For all those who are having a hard time unlocking their bootloader checkout this here on xda. Maybe it will work with the Huawei Y530 phone.
[General Questions and Answers] Cameo164:
No it won't work because the program simply runs the fastboot command "fastboot oem unlock" which won't work.

No problem. The funny thing is that I can't unlock my bootloader too because Huawei isn't answering me. But I don't wanna pay for DC Unlocker.
[General Questions and Answers] JuanDxD24:
i see, The only thing you can do is buy another cell I feel a little more comfortable with it, but until that happens, I'll try the mod-ROMs that are available because that is far rom cm. I swear that if I could bring something would because his work is better than Dante, their roms are going from bad to worse both graphically and functionally, in a comment on facebook asked a question and I answered the speed up 4.0 is fake and pulled me of the group. xD lol
[General Questions and Answers] rac69:
My bootloader is already unlocked. I got my code from huawei back in July. I don't think you have to pay any money to get the bootloader unlock code with dc unlocker. Run the software and get your unlock code. See this VIDEO on youtube.

solve crashing and notification bar problems.

I think crash in games happens after updating...

as it happens for me... I had b177 before...

Only every one who haven't notification bar and cannot change theme do this steps:

You must have root

1- Go to Data folder and open custom.bin as a text file (using root file manager or solid explorer)

2- remember its content. for example dt/sk ( important: do not perform any change in this file )

3- go to Cust folder and rename folder ( hw ) to left side letters beside slash ( I mean / ) in custum.bin file. for example ( dt )

4- go the same folder (hw) and rename folder ( normal ) to right side letters beside slash in custom.bin file. for example (sk)

5- If it doesn't works, backup your apps and perform a factory reset .

you will see changes in boot logo, notificationbar and you will able to change huawei theme.!

Probably 99 percent crashing problem in games will be solved!

Cant change the option in the settings. The option is there but its gray and i cant change it. I will the factory reset.

One thing ive noticed, the phone is much faster and even the resolution is better. Cant wait to see the changes after the reset! Ill keep u posted!t

---------- Post added at 07:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:51 PM ----------

It worked!!!!!

and the changes are amazing!

i did the factory reset as u told me, and when the phone come alive, it was almost a new phone!

The speed was much much superior and everything is so much fluid , the notification bar is back online, the themes are working and the resolution is sharper than ever.

i dont know how the simple change of name of 2 folders could have so much impact, but the results are there to see.

ive also notice a major improvement on game crashes, although they still exist, but in a much lesser way and not so frequently.

Thank u very much for the tips.

i will continue to test the phone keep u updated of results.
