Any movement on this? anyone find a working custom rom for this p.o.s.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] C.G.B. Spender:
Found working ROMs for this phone (Y330-U01 model). Some of the pages are in italian, but I managed to follow it with Google Translate. The italian forum requires registration. Rom itself has many languages presumably all that are in stock, English included.

Do any of this on your own responsibility, if something goes wrong it's not my fault. It worked for me on UK bought Y330-U01.

You might want to make copy of stock HwSettings.apk and HwSettings.odex - I needed to replace those for the 2nd rom as the included one was crashing now and then. Your mileage might vary.

Since it's my 1st post I can't post links, the links to tutorials and roms are at:

pastebin <dot> com <slash> Z8faVVe8

Notes from my experiences with installation:

for material themed rom: I had to replace HwSettings.apk and HwSettings.odex with ones from stock rom as the included crashed every now and then.

Xposed installation:

The material themed one includes Xposed by default (the theming is done via MonsterUI module) but it's old version so you might want to upgrade. If you just install newest Xposed (I use 2.7 experimental1) the theming will not work due to some bs around stock theme engine or whatnot. To make it work edit the phone's build.prop and set ro.config.hwtheme to 0, reboot phone.

Enjoy.

I'm following the tutorial: https://www.dc-unlocker.com/free-huawei-bootloader-unlock-tutorial

I'm blocked here:

If I press voume down + voume up + power, my phone goes in recovery mode. It doesn't turn pink. If I press just volume down + power it goes into fastboot.

How the heck do I turn it pink as in the tutorial?

Or maybe if I see a recovery screen, it means my bootloader is already unlocked?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] C.G.B. Spender:
Hi,

thanks for linkifying my post. You're right it's in french not italian - pardon my ignorance. As for the step with the pink screen I didn't have pink screen either I think the point of the step is to get the phone to the unbooted state but accessible by adb so fastboot should do fine (I'm no expert though - I did many trial and errors on the steps due to the fact it was google translated, iirc vol up+power = recovery, vol down+power = fastboot - try both and whichever leads to successful next step was it (i think it's fastboot since the adb shell uses fastboot command to do stuff with bootloader in the guide)).

To check whether your bootloader is already unlocked do "fastboot oem get-bootinfo" (look at very last step from the dc-unlocker guide)

Sorry for not being any more helpful and good luck!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] firepol:
That French guy, Speedo4android is really damn cool! I'll thank him personally in French for this! And no sorry, I was just a bit puzzled looking around for Italian text and realized after a bit that maybe you just confused it with French, no big deal :)

vol down + power (fastboot) was the correct one.

Thanks very much for this command. I didn't know it! In my case it seems the adb/phone drivers were already installed as well as the adb tools. So I could issue (reposting for new users reading this) these commands:

fastboot devices
fastboot oem get-bootinfo

fastboot devices is the same as "adb devices". Just it lists devices (if connected) in fastboot mode. I could see my device. Issuing the second command showed me that the bootloader was already unlocked, so indeed no need to see the pink screen.

That said I proceeded to the tutorial to install the CWM recovery. It was a bit tricky to install the proper drivers. If somebody has problems with this, the answer is a google search to "adb drivers windows 8.1" (assuming one is using Windows 8.1, but I guess so) and find this: Fastboot Drivers Windows 8.1 [FIX] x64. To sum up, you have to allow Windows 8.1 to install unsigned drivers, like this:

That helped me a lot (other tutorials suggest point and click, I prefer one command via shutdown (with options)... as quoted above.

Tricky thing number 2 was to install the MTK Preloader Mediatek drivers for the device in fastboot mode. Check this out: HOW TO INSTALL MTK65XX PRELOADER USB VCOM DRIVERS IN WINDOWS

On the contrary, without your post I would have never be able to own this device, I almost lost hope when I read that no DEV is interested to create custom roms for this device... I was thinking it would be a pain to install CWM and in fact it was, but finally I got it! Maybe some DEVs will be interested to create more roms for this device... let's see. Thank you!

And thanks to Speedo4android for the hard work!

The camera of the Xperia SP is not that good :( Some options you can consider:

- Try manual mode

Some settings you could try:

~ ISO; I dont have it on auto... I always play with it

~ SCN; Some do work a bit better than others. Play with it

~ Don't use superior mode

- Use another Camera app

Other than that we can not do much.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] whatsitsnamenow:
Wondering if it is possible to turn on the S5 Active camera from a screen off state. I can do this from my Sony Xperia phone and my Moto X phone. The S5 Active can turn on camera with the dedicated "active button" but as far as I can tell it requires the screen to be on.

In other words to activate the camera for my S5 Active requires multiple steps. First turn the screen on (press power/home button), then slide to unlock the screen, then press the "active" button

On my Sony, I just hold the camera button for 2 seconds and the camera comes on.

On my Moto X, I just flick my wrist twice and the camera comes on.

[LG Optimus G Pro] mikelets456:
Hello All,

I currently have a Samsung S4 Active KK, Towelroot, etc. I bought a refurbished E985 ATT for my wife and liked it so much I bought one for myself. However, I have one HUGE problem, everything works but the stock Email program only allows for MICROSOFT exchange and I simply need it for my corporate exchange (Lotus). The stock email program on S4 active works flawlessly with my corporate exchange and I was able to locate the APK but it won't install in the Optimus.

I am rooted via towelroot, have ES file explorer and tried everything to get this APK working, but I keep getting the dreaded "not installed" error. Any suggestions?

Also, why doesn't the Optimus Pro connect to exchange servers? Every program/email I've tried connects to my server, authenticates, then simply says waiting to sync and never syncs.

The other other is flashing the Email app (.ZIP) via CWM or Safe strap?

I really want to use this phone instead of my S4, but without email, it's useless to me. Thanks for your help....

Try taking our your sdcard and see if the high battery drain overnight goes away.

If the problem goes away with the removal of the sdcard you at least know what is causing it.

And it's very annoying when you're trying to be quick. If I pull down really slow its ok. But it seems to be something with the Theme Mod. If I Disable Theme Mod, then it's ok.But with it On, it does that. Someone has to be having the same issue.

[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Bubba:
Hello. I'd like to introduce myself. I am Bubba from the AT&T Note 3, Note, and Infuse forums. I have had several people PM me asking for help or information on starting to theme. So I decided to start a learning thread.

WHAT THIS THREAD IS:

A place to gather the basics to get you started if you want to learn. A place to ask questions about theming and theming issues. A place to interact with Recognized and Unrecognized themers as well as people who are at your level or maybe the next level you will reach. A place you can learn from advanced, intermediate, and beginners, and maybe even yourself. A place where any theming question can be asked and hopefully answered. Keep in mind I am no expert. I will do the best I can, and I have enlisted the help of a few of my Teammates to help us out. We are all from Team Alliance.

WHAT THIS THREAD IS NOT:

This is not a place to request themes or apps to be themed. This is not a place for flaming or negative opinions of others works.

WHO WILL HELP OUT:

Myself,lacoursiere18, daveyannihilation, Tired Storeman, Mikeymopar, Nunhugger, sparky b, and hopefully a few others will be stopping in to help.

WHAT CAN I LEARN TO THEME?

We expect to cover TW apps as well as other apps. 4.4 as well as 4.3

WHO THE HECK ARE YOU?

A little background on me. I started learning to theme just over 2 years ago. I released my first theme (A theme chooser theme) as a gift for myself and anyone else on my 50th birthday .. (so you are NOT too old to learn) with the help and guidance of a great friend and fellow "The Family" member ppalbicke who is truly the most patient man ever created lol. I am now on the forever locked AT&T Note 3, so no more Theme Chooser. So I am continually learning to theme TW apks and I keep intergrating other apps into the theme I want to keep building.

IS THIS A STRICK ON TOPIC STUFFY THREAD?

Hell no.I want this thread to run a like every "favorite" thread I have been involved in. Light humor is not only permitted.. but encouraged. Trust me ... you will need humor as a stress relief for this stress relieving hobby.

So ... if your in ... tell your wives/husbands, boyfriend/girlfriend goodbye .. this will soon become an obsession. You will want to do nothing but make every app you see "purty". Trust me .. my wife hates my phone. "Why can't you just leave it alone dammit".

OKAY BUBBA.. SHADDUP AND GET THIS STARTED: Okay then .. here we go. I have packaged up some basic tools and links you will need to get started. You will find the link in post #2

Some instructions in Post #3
[Galaxy Note 3 Themes and Apps] Bubba:
