Well it worked for Scout on the previous page so it might work for you. Though I can't say for sure that your problem and Scout's are identical.

2G/3G, DTTW, and FM Radio in RR

Sure, but I didn't mean only Indian networks, I just said what I read in the comments section on that site. Again, check post #700, ask Qwerty if they'll share.

Double Tap To Wake works in CM12.1 Dev-ROM and in BrokenOS. I can't remember if it works in Resurrection Remix 5.6.7 - 5.6.9, AICP 11, Marsh 2.0, TipsyOS, and Screw'd Android.

If you get BrokenOS, I don't think you can turn the feature off.

If you know Russian then you pretty much have it all in terms of developing skills, because they managed to fix FM Radio and GPS in RR 5.6.7. They have everything there are 4pda.ru. Shame most of it will never make it to English forums.

I'm sorry I didn't bookmark the thread :eek:

[Android General] 7awliet:
4pda.ru

The one I saw was RR 5.6.8 and it was in a MTK 6582 thread rather than an A5000 specific thread.

I also saw that TipsyOS post though and if that is your ROM then that sucks that they'd take it without permission.
[Android General] Pher-:
I got no problem with RR 5.6.8 on that thread, HarlequinUA asked me permission.
[Android General] babigabi:
ofcourse is my ROM. I upload it at 09:30 AM, and he taked and uploaded it on 4pda on 18:29. and also I recognized after the name that I written "TipsyOS-A5K" Also the mega download link is that generated by me.

well, this would not have upset me if he was saying from where it got the ROM, and not calling himself as the owner.

I cant made an account there because of that captcha words in russian

well... anyone that wants to try/ port this rom?

hey guys is it normal that i havent got any OTA updates for RR 5.6.8? P.S im trying to port RR 5.6.8 to Huawei G730-u10 because i didnt find any online so can someone help me ?
[Android General] 7awliet:
RR OTA And Huawei G730

You mean you're on RR 5.6.7 and see no OTA notification for RR 5.6.8? If so, that's because so much has changed in the new ROM that you had to port 5.6.8 over again and possibly the same for 5.6.9.

See the notice at the top: http://updates.mtkroms.com/

Use the search bar at the top of the forum: http://xdaforums.com/sitesearch.php?q=G730

http://xdaforums.com/android/general/huawei-ascend-g730-u10-support-thread-t3110314

I couldn't find Huawei G730-U10 on a brief Google search, maybe it's Huawei Ascend G730-?##. Also, I couldn't find it on http://specdevice.com/showgroup.php?mfid=HUAWEI. Try using the Spec Device apk from their site (top right) to upload the full spec of your device. Try to complete as many of the tests available in that app and put your username in the 'Owner's comment:' so your upload can be identified or just link the send URL of the upload - that is IF you decide to do this.

The SoC on your device is MediaTek MT6582 and the CPU is Cortex-A7.
[Android General] Rom developer2022:
thanks,im on 5.6.8 but i havent got any ota updates since installed it is this normal?
[Android General] northwindtrades:
completely normal there hasn't been an update since the first update.besides ota maintainer hasn't even done RR 5.6.9 and if he does it will be a new ROM that must be ported again .there are a lot phones running RR 5.6.8 and to make a update to jump to 5.6.9 is not easy cause all phones files are different . if there is an ota for RR 5.6.8 it will be some minor bug fixes and unlikely a version upgrade.

What about page 78? If its me boasting about RR 5.6.9 I jumped the gun ,I thought it will work cause its the only 6.01 I've done with 3.10.54 to make it pass the bootlogo screen and to the optimising screen but it turned off and showed no sign off life .I unbricked it with the help of the mt6582 built in meta mode.

I used the s117 though I guess I should retry with the with the latest version of s124 .
[Android General] northwindtrades:
3.10.54

Tried the 3.10.54 kernel (not the luck@s kernel)on a couple of lollipop ROMs and while the performance is great comparing with 3.4.67 the battery life Is **** when comparing with 3.4.67 (although its better than the overheating stock lollipop kernel)

3.4.67 also have more support cuz of frequent release of ROMs from mtkroms . I'm downgrading kernel to 3.4.67 for now

Im gonna try the valdius rom (i like wolves)

wish someone could fix the GPS though .
[Android General] babigabi:

[Android General] defy_owner:
Qwerty@, can you tell the which files you replaced/ edited, so it crossed the bootlogo. May be we together can fix the afterboot issues. & which rom did you use as base- lollipop or kitkat?
[Android General] northwindtrades:
I used stock lp s117 as base but from now should use the s124 lp ROM as base .I remember replacing uventrc in boot.IMG and some other random changes (I'll mention if I remember them ,read a lot if guides and made some changes from each)

Appreciate the fact that you're willing to put the effort but I think the our 3.10.54 kernel can't properly support 6.01 ROMs yet. I've tried about three kernels and they didn't work ,it only crossed bootlogo after somany random changes and after that the phone was pretty much dead ,even the preloader was messed up.

[Android General] ilham9089:
Help please

I need help. I upgraded to Lollipop the S124 version on my Lenovo A5000 and it's really bad with a lot of bugs. I want to flash some kind of lag free rom so please recommend some good rom. I saw that you have to flash to Kitkat before flashing any custom rom. Can someone post detailed instructions on how to do it? I got the 4.4 V30 zip file downloaded and it has a bunch of drivers, the sp flash tool and the rom itself. How do I flash this in flash tool? Please detailed instructions, I don't want to mess up. I'll be grateful if someone replies to this and helps me. Lollipop is really a pain. Btw I downloaded the Kitkat 4.4 V30 in the rollback to kitkat section. Thanks.
[Android General] ilham9089:
There is no instructions on how to roll back to kitkat, it only says to flash the files. How do i flash it, thats the problem
[Android General] northwindtrades:
Already deleted ,the only leftover is the actual imported ROM .I'll try to reproduce my work but it is completely pointless at the moment.no has succeeded to boot mm properly because we don't have a working kernel 3.10.54 that cun run mm .make one and share , I'll give you credits.

---------- Post added at 08:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:04 AM ----------

1) extract the kitkat ROM

2)open sp flashtool

3) on the download tab on sp flash tool select scatter loading

4)now browse through the extracted KitKat ROM to find a scatter.txt file ,select it

5)now click download on sp flash tool

6) connect your powered off phone to PC via USB the rollback will begin

7)wait for success notification

PS all data will be lost when flashed so make a backup beforehand.
[Android General] ilham9089:
I get that but what about the drivers? How do I install those because when I plug in my phone powered off it just starts charging lol
[Android General] northwindtrades:
Driver should install on its own , well try the connecting the powered ofphone again after clicking download but this time hold the vol + button as well.
[Android General] defy_owner:
Pretty liar :D & yes nobody succeed to boot MM in 3.10.54. NOBODY!
[Android General] northwindtrades:

---------- Post added at 05:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:51 AM ----------

What does the device manager say .can you find any error like error10 device can't start etccc?

Does it show any sign of life ,ie vibrate ,charge etc

Relax I've unbricked this before many times

I'll get back to you shortly
[Android General] ilham9089:
No sign of life :(. It just says mediatek usb vcom port when i plug it in. Doesn't show any sign of battery charging either. It doesn't turn on at all. Even though it says usb vcom port, the process doesn't start in sp flash tool when I try flashing the same kitkat rollback firmware again

Now you can flash a custom recovery

Load scatter like usual check only recovery ,now click location and browse through and select the recovery.IMG you want to flash ,click download and connect your powered off phone and wait for success notification .now enter recovery mode .do a normal wipe first. Then click install select a the downloaded ROM of your choice

After installing .do the same for gapps and SuperSU.reboot system and enjoy a custom ROM.

Just letting you know that flashify has caused some problems in some phones .sp flash tool is much safer.
[Android General] potato_salad:
appreciate the reply. I actually tried using sp flash tools but to no avail. when i turn it off and connect it to the computer it just charges, the pc wont recognize it. I followed several tutorials to download and install drivers but still nothing. most of the time tutorials will ask me to look for mt65xx preloader on other devices under the device manager but nothing shows up. thats why I wanted to know any alternative way to flash a custom recovery on my phone so I can flash a custom rom. hope you can help me.
[Android General] babigabi:
you need a working driver. for me worked this:

https://mega.nz/#F!qdN3kZpY!_oDduPM6r8Cx8Zxc_-SoYw

if for you will no work search on internet until you will find a working one.

and on sp flash tool first you must press download button and after connect the phone to usb

[Android General] ilham9089:
I flashed twrp v3 and it flashed to 100% but then it gave me brom error. Now the same thing happened when I flashed kitkat. It doesnt boot up and no sign of charge but when I connect it, it shows me mediatek usb vcom port. I'm guessing I need to let the battery completely drain because thats how it started working last time
[Android General] northwindtrades:
Yep ,let the battery hit zero ,its the only way cause removing our battery isn't actually a good idea.

Performance wise the best I've used .choose nova launcher on bootup it supports cmte. This is the only ROM here that supports cyanogen theme engine but has aosp ram management.also has decent amount of customisation including headers .

Drawbacks

1)Music player isn't sleek but viper4doid fx make up for it.(you can always go for 3rd party)

2) no stock file explorer ,so you have to download one from play store to get you started.

[Android General] northwindtrades:
Yes you can but you have to find a RR 5.5.9 with kernel version 3.10.54 and soc mt6582 first. All the ROMs here are for kernel 3.4.67 so if you port of these your phone won't boot.

If you can't find one for mt6582, any 65xx will do fine ,you just have to replace files with mt65xx also then.

[Android General] northwindtrades:
I havnt tied porting lollipop with 3.10.54 yet and there's a lot of guides in XDA itself for this .

But if I was to do it I'll

1) replace the kernel/zimage from decompiled stock boot.IMG to decompiled port boot.IMG. then repack it and replace this boot.img in the ROM to be ported.

2)replace libmali.so from stock to port ROM

3) hwcomposer from stock to port

4)then compress this to zip and flash it in recovery.

That's pretty much the standard way of porting lollipop.
