Looks like someone is looking for a way to brick his phone ! Dude we don't even have a proper kernel for it [emoji14]

Sanju Joseph :)
[Galaxy Grand 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sajidbinraheem:
Not Yet

Still no luck. Wait patiently.
[Galaxy Grand 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nar67:
any update for cm11 ?
[Galaxy Grand 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rahul10:
Yeaa we have to wait devs are working on it...
[Galaxy Grand 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WaseemAlkurdi:
The devs (I can't name them, as they told me not to) are working on it, but they are stuck at the boot animation.

I'm also working at it, but will need a CM build, even if non-working, but the devs are refusing to provide me with it. So, I gotta wait.
[Galaxy Grand 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] i.snehal.kiran:
i think devs for this device are very much secretive....why??? they should collabrate with the community should discuss the problems while building so that bugs can be fixed faster.....
[Galaxy Grand 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WaseemAlkurdi:
They formed a closed community so that no one steals their work. Plagiarism is common.

I wanted to help, but they kicked me out.

They probably did that to balliboxer too, as he isn't on that committee.

That's just an analysis, not a fact.
[XDA Assist] BlkKnightlanse:
Hi Guys,

I'm at my witts end on this and can not seem to get it resolved myself.

I have two Nook HD+'s and the both behave the same - either on my home or work network.

I have tried a combination of:

cm-11-20140804-SNAPSHOT-M9-ovation / pa_gapps-stock-4.4.4-20140818-signed

cm-10.2.1-ovation / gapps-jb-20130813-signed

cm-11-20140819-NIGHTLY-ovation / pa_gapps-stock-4.4.4-20140818-signed

All exhibit the same problem.

When I connect to wi-fi, my "normal" downloads are fine - Circa 30Mbps, but anything I try and get through Play Store comes down at 10-20Kbps

Other than the various versions above, I have tried

- Clearing all caches & factory resets (after each install)

- Optimise / normal WiFi modes

- Clearing GApps & Play Store Cash & reset.

My two phones (LG G3 4.4 & HTX One X CM 10 4.3) do not exhibit this problem.

I have no idea what to try.

Please help meeeeeee

Regards

Jason

**MY HUAWEI ASCEND P2 HAS DIED, I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO CONTINUE DEVELOPING FOR THIS ROM BUT I WILL STILL HELP THOSE WITH THE P2**

CrispeROM v0.1 BETA

This ROM is for the Huawei Ascend P2 and is based off the B021 update from Huawei.

Please note: This is a BETA ROM and should be considered experimental.

Things you will need:

Huawei Ascend P2

TWRP of any kind [here's the version I use]

ADB Knowledge

Bugs:

- Whatsapp crashing (fix by rooting, removing the APK from /system/apps and then re-downloading from Play Store)

If you find any please post in this thread.

Changes:

Still lots to be made but so far just fairly basic

- Replaced the Launcher with 2 alternatives

- Edited build.prop

- Replace contacts, SMS Messaging and dialer app with free alternatives

- Integrated Facebook app

- Changed the default keyboard to the Google Keyboard

- Removed stock browser (because it was awful and a complete waste of 30MB)

- Stopped android making the phone starve itself of available RAM (A serious problem I had with stock ROM)

- Dramatically reduced boot time

- Added fast boot option in Settings

- Silenced the camera snap sound

- Replaced the Boot animation (to a really cool one)

Here are some screenshots of the ROM so far:

OUTDATED:

You can download the ROM here:

https://www.mediafire.com/?vezgb85a2z4z431

Enjoy!

If you have any ideas feel free to post them too!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] samade123:
I like the look of this ROM but I'm going to wait for a BO38 version. It's only because it has better battery life and 4g
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jdcrispe95:
I have made tweaks to the ROM to improve battery life.

I cant speak on behalf of 4G but hopefully someone can tell me whether or not it works as 4G isn't available in my area, but it should work.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] samade123:
I'm tempted to flash this rom. Does it mention 4G in the settings.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jdcrispe95:
Take a backup of your current ROM and then flash this one, if 4G doesn't work then flash back (you will be able to with TWRP)

I have spoken to Three and they have said that B021 update is 4G capable.

Like I mentioned above I can't test this myself as I don't have 4G in my area.

There's a *#xxxxx# code out there that opens the 4G settings, if I can get ahold of that code I'll pass it onto you and you can manually enable 4G if it's not already.

Thank you
[Miscellaneous Android Development] samade123:
Ok my temptation beat me and I flashed the rom. It's a good start and I think 4G does work because it was enabled in settings. I liked it but I prefer different dialer. The only problem I really had with it was that It removed root and super user as well as the fact there is no FM radio app. I might test the 4g later when I am in an 4g area.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jdcrispe95:
Thank you for being the 1st tester of the ROM.

Please let me know how things go so I can improve the ROM.

You can install any dialer from the Play store and you can re-root using TWRP (it should give you the option to install SuperSU when you go to Reboot > System)

Enjoy!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] GODISMYCOPILOT:
Do i just use abd fastboot to flash your twrp on the p2 then flash as 'per' any rom, after i backup my own rom ?

Is it still possible to delete some stuff i don't like in the rom like facebook?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] jdcrispe95:
Yes, "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" is the command you want.

Then copy the zip to the SD card using "adb push <zipname>.zip /sdcard"

Then install using TWRP recovery.

Also, unfortunately my P2 has died, so I've had to buy a new phone and I'm going to have to put an end to this project, anyone who wants to expand on the ROM and rename it, feel free.

I wish those who still own this device good luck with ROM Development.

I will still help people on the threads I've made so far.

send back to phone and ask them to repair it correctly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] bthorne79:
Is it just me or have the custom ROMs gotten boring. All of them are the same now. There is nothing really setting them apart anymore they all have the same features the same ui. Yes I know its KitKat but it really. Where is the difference.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ACoolGuy:
Make one brotha! Stock based roms are pretty snappy as is and most devs have moved on to newer devices at this point. I'm still on Negaman's latest.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] bthorne79:
I have built plenty ROMs. And on two teams. I'm not a TW user. I've used nega rom seen issues with it and didnt like the theme but that was my own opinion.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] troyboytn:
Then my question to you is if you are capable of building your own rom.....the way you would like it for yourself, why complain that they are all the same? Why not build your own that could be very much different.....with the performance and the theming to fit your own taste. It really is as simple as that.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] bthorne79:
Look I'm not here to get slammed by people I was just putting it out there to find out from other people if they felt the same.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] frostedunit:
I'm sure a lot of people feel the same way. The only difference is they keep their whiny, disrespectful opinions to themselves.

We have a great group of developers here who spend tons of their unpaid personal time to put out some awesome roms. If their products don't meet your personal needs, make your own REMOVED.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] bthorne79:
MOD REMOVED
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Daisflaque:
I agree. The roms available all seem too alike. Most have bugs. And if not they seem to lack features id put in standard.. i am not a rom dev.. but have been working on my own. It will be a compilation of miui aosp and aome cherry picks. But again.. its gonna be the same base.. what can i do to make mine different? We're all stuck using either samsungs crap base or cm... I'm getting discouraged. :'(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] drewahner:
Why Android is so awesome

The beauty of Android is the ability to make it any way you like. It has already been said, but I would like to reinforce this idea. ROMs are all very similar because the MAJORITY of people have the same basic requirements from their phones. This means that the feature set that most people demand is very similar, and therefore the features offered in the various ROMs will be similar as well.

The people who make ROMs that are overly different from the 'normal' do it primarily for their own benefit, and their specific needs are not often shared by others. So these "unique" ROMs never really get out because there isn't a demand for them.

I personally have done many of my own "purpose-built" ROMs that go outside the normal, but posting them wouldn't make much sense, because the things that are different are not needed by other people. Also, supporting a COMMUNITY of people who use your ROM is much harder than supporting yourself. I can make ROM changes for myself, but I absolutely do not have time to try to upkeep a ROM thread. The work that those guys put in is INCREDIBLE. Making a ROM work for one person on one phone in one configuration is trivial compared to trying to roll out a mass-compatible distribution. The only ROMs that are worth that kind of time are the ROMs that suit the needs of many, not the needs of few. Therefore, the ROMs that are distributed online are all seeking to fill the same basic roles.

As to how you can make your ROM unique, that is like asking how to make a car unique. First you have to decide what you want. Do you want a race car (speed)? Do you want amazing gas mileage (battery life)? Does it need to be street legal (compatibility)? Do you care about color (theme)? Do you need a great sound system (music player)?

I think you begin to see what I mean. You can make a ROM unique in many ways, but you have to figure out what you want from the ROM before you can figure out what the ROM needs to be like.

You also mentioned that many ROMs are buggy. Get used to it. Especially if you are going to start building your own. I don't mean to sound harsh, but that is the nature of the game. If you want maximum stability, go back to stock. Everything has a trade-off. If you want great features, you will have to work through the glitches. I am not saying that a "perfect" ROM is impossible, but be prepared to put in the time. The ROM devs around here do everything they can, but ultimately they also have full-time jobs doing other things. If each of the custom ROMs on this forum had the 500 man full-time dev team that Samsung has, the ROMs would be just as stable. Unfortunately, that isn't the case.

Welcome to the world of Android, my friend. Have fun building!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Daisflaque:
I feel like that was completely unnecessary and very untrue. Ive ran several 'stable' AOSP/CM roms and the one im building is quite stable thank you. :p

A base is just a base. The features i add are always in demand. And some may or may not be activated upon flashing. Thats up to the user to

decide. imo this whole conversation seems to lure in bashers. All i did was ask for some simple advice. Ill take my leave now. ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] drewahner:
I just want to say that I meant no disrespect! And I am very happy you have a stable ROM. All I was suggesting is that I would guess you have had some bumps in the road along the way. I am confident that you have worked through them, or are in the process of doing so, but I would wager to bet that in the future you will run into more bumps. You will fix them and all will be good.

I am simply trying to point out that in the process of adding new features, often we encounter issues, bugs, glitches, etc. If you haven't, then I think you are extremely lucky and in a league of your own as far as programming goes. Far above me and many others.

And if the features you add are always in demand, then I propose that you are adding features that are similar to what many others are adding. I could be wrong, but I feel that to meet the demands of the masses it is easy to fall into a trail that closely parallels others. There are certain unique differences, but in the end I think that this is why ROMs are similar today.

Anyway, please know that I meant you no disrespect or flame. I was just trying to explain my perspective on why there was not as much variation as we would all like, and why occasionally someone discovers a bug.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Daisflaque:
Very well written. And well said. Yes theres always a problem when adding/removing features.. but the point is to release when its stable/feature rich. Anyways. I thank you for the input. And soon DUI (DaisUI) will hit xda servers. ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] bryguy9021:
cuz aosp is aosp no matter how u look at it. differences are kernels.. updated toolchains.. and customizations... like nameless roms otg mode.. pretty neat.. or sokps dolby audio... its easy to cherry pick stuff u like about roms n drop them into cm... rom devs really just making stuff THEY like n sharing with us
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Reverend Gonzo:
I have just moved from sprint s3 to s4. Was a huge fan of m.o.a.r., wicked sensations, and wicked x. For their customized everything. I am NOT a programmer so please don't slam me. But most of the roms I have seen for the s4 are kind of vanilla. Are there any roms like wicked out there for s4 or is it time to learn to do it myself?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] bthorne79:
You can try out negalite
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] tft:
dead forum is dead forum.. can't really complain considering how dead development for the device really is.. i think there are too many phones these days being released which does has an impact on how much modding happens. i remember the days of the ppc-6700/touchpro/2/etc and how those devices even after years there was tons of active stuff going on (and those were WM devices lol). now the peak of most devices tend to be 6 months before people seem to lose interest and they upgrade to the next phone with barely any improvements. i tend to stick to a phone for at least 2 to maybe 3 gens before i swap. currently i'm on the S4 and skipped the S5 because how lackluster it is.. will wait to see how the S6 looks like, but i think the S4 will be my last samsung for a while.. my eyes are set on the Xperia Z3 coming out to sprint this fall. samsung seems to be stuck in the plastic shell generation after generation.. well this is a whole other topic ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Reverend Gonzo:
S3 seems to be running strong still. Had I not dropped mine, I would have stayed with it.

Which rom are you running on your S4

I found Negalite and really like it... but it looks like its dead too.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] KennyG123:
You guys know there is a Unified Development forum for the S4 right? Most non-TW ROMs have moved to there.

Anyway, its cheap (~250$) and seems a tad better than my current GS3, just dk If i'll be able to use it in Israel if I ever get my hands on one of those. Im dying to upgrade but everything seems to suck, except maybe honor 6 in terms of specs vs price vs not being ugly (including small bezels) vs availability.

[Sharp Aquos Crystal] male6363@hotmail.com:
SIM card? Unlocked? etc...

Hello everybody...

I am a big fun of Sharp cell phones... I am %00 sure about this... Sharp is the BEST... Forget the rest...

Anyway :))) Is there anybody who knows if this phone has SIM card... And possible to find unlocked device etc...

Thanks a LOT!
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] Shark87:
Chances are that the Softbank version will have one since it is a GSM/WCDMA carrier. The only problem would be getting it unlocked.

Things are a bit murkier for the Sprint version. Sprint is a CDMA carrier and I don't believe many of their phones have GSM/WCDMA sim card slots. Or at least accessible SIM card slots.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] ikenvape:
My hopes are lying on the Crystal X coming. I would definitely opt back to Sprint for it.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] punkmonkey1984:
I would buy this if its possible to use in the UK on the GSM networks, I dont even care about the 4G bands too much, so 3G seems to work great in my city without being too slow.

So lets all hope when its out, we can root and unlock the phone to use on other network's. (If supported base bands)

Not seen any development for Sharp phones, so not sure on their policies with bootloaders and security.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] x000x:
I've read the front covering for the display is only plastic. I wonder how easily that will scratch as opposed to something like gorilla glass.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] tuphuonghl:
I think that smartphone make by japan is wonderfull to use foe everry one . I like Aquos sharp
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] Stevethegreat:
It seems like it has a removable back. Is it really? I searched for videos removing it but haven't found any. And if it is removable does it allow you to put any Sim or battery you want? Because those two are the only deal breakers for me. If it does allow for a plethora of batteries then the first I would do is buy one with extended capacity (2000 mah doesn't cut it), or at least a second battery as a backup. And, if it does allow you to swap Sim cards, maybe devs here would figure a way to allow for full gsm support as they did with other sprint phones.

If anyone will bring any more info on those two issues (no matter in what language may the info or video is posted) it would be really helpful.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] punkmonkey1984:
I also have questions about that but didn't find a video. Might be because its either new and still not released, also I have questions about if it will work on UK 3g.

I love the design and have been jealous about the other sharp phones with minimal bezel that have been in japan for a long time.

I would really like to buy/import this phone but only if 3g will work on my carrier.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] Kolma:
I've found this image but the Sim card slot is more than likely for 4G LTE on Sprint/Virgin/Boost

Hope we get a release date soon as I really want this phone on Virgin.
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] ycats:
I read somewhere that the first one will be a 5" screen, the specs are kind of weak............but supposedly in December there will be a 5.5" screen version with better specs (ram, etc.).

i just bought this phone the other day and have really, really like it. i was wondering if any is rooting it so we have a little more control over what goes on it and what it can do. it's definitely high style and that's a plus!
[Sharp Aquos Crystal] Toyeboy:
I'm really hoping this phone gets root as well. It's amazing device but root access is definitely important to me for Foldermount and Wi-Fi Tether. Giving it's quality design and very affordable price, I'd say it's going to be a good seller for Boost and Virgin mobile. It looks better than the $600 S5 it's $149..

[Sharp Aquos Crystal] AnnapolisBeauty:
and that's what's so sad. a phone costing much more looks like an old LG. I think the Galaxy Alpha is supposed to change that but whatev. I really like this phone and it grows on me daily. no compliments an iPhone because EVERYONE (mainly older people that I've seen) has one and they all look the same. and the Galaxy S series never caught anyone's eye ever so there was nothing there with that. I never wanted my phone to say "look at me" but this one is so pretty and it seems everyone else thinks so as well if I judge by how many time people grab my hand in a store! it's a great design either way and worth every penny! and I think the performance is wonderful too!

Better than my FORMER Galaxy Note 3

I concur 100000% with you guys! Received my Crystal and within 2 hours of tinkering, packed up my year old rooted & tweaked Tmobile Galaxy Note 3 (now for sale on eBay). I've tested ALL my favorite apps and despite the supposedly slower processor, everything seems to run faster, colors are more vivid, whites more white, had to turn down brightness, great sound, faster bluetooth connections, Sharp did not overload it with bloatware ...just need root and TWRP so I can make a backup and have unlimited tethering. Best of all, it cost me less than 1/5 of Note 3 or 4 and Boost monthly plan is only $35!

IMHO, unbeatable value against ANY other smartphone today!

Glenn ;)

P.S. I've lost count on how many smartphones and tablets I've had since my first iPhone (defective, replaced 3 times by Apple). For sure I'll NEVER go back to iJAIL!
