[Honor 7 Android Development] joelk2:
please forgive my ignorance on the matter as i really have no clue in whats goes into making sure roms etc but how hard is it to turn such roms into stock android?

i mean i think the issues most people have with the honor 7 is infact emui

again i will apologize if its a ridiculous question

on another note, would this improve battery life at all? im on B180 currently and i find the battery life to be somewhat of a disappointment.
[Honor 7 Android Development] emu1982:
Thanks [MENTION=220328]paulobrien[/MENTION] nice to another stock modified ROM in the Honor 7 community.
[Honor 7 Android Development] Szumy:
Nice ! Another custom ROM , sounds good. My request is , if you can, to install something to increase the sound of our Honor's.

[MENTION=4128231]joelk2[/MENTION] You can always install a launcher from Google play , I recommend Nova Launcher.

Maybe a noob question but what are the MCR scripts you mentioned?

[Honor 7 Android Development] lockmunk:
Ok downloading now !
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
This will always be stock based, but I'm working on some cool stuff to make it more 'stock'.

Thanks!

The MCR scripts I run during the build of the ROM. They re-optimise everything for size and performance using scripts I've developed over many years.

Server is back online now, apologies.

[Honor 7 Android Development] samcro94:
Thanks for your work

You should hide the IMEI in your screen copy......
[Honor 7 Android Development] joelk2:
Will this improve battery life at all?
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
I wouldn't expect it to, no.

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] cycovision:
Since this fine Piece is fully deodexed im wondering if xposed works now. Anyone tried out yet? :)
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
This build isn't deodexed, a future build will be.

I'm not sure that will solve the Xposed option, but it's something I'm looking into, along with APKtool and a number of other things.

I always want to build TWRP 3 for the 7.

Stay tuned.

Notifications working properly?
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
In what way?

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] branomo:
Hi

I installed this ROM today. I tried to root, but it is now possible. Is there any possibily rooted this ROM?
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
Just installing the SuperSU zip should work, as the boot image is patched.

If it doesn't work, manually extract the boot.img from the and flash it using 'fastboot flash boot boot.img' and try again.

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] but-888-:
Not delayed when screen is off. Instant push, you know its quite often buggy with huawei roms
[Honor 7 Android Development] Szumy:
May i post your ROM on other forum? I'll post original links etc. and give credit.
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
Sure, let me know where you post it!

Absolutely fine as long as link back to MoDaCo for the download.

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
I'll install Peak and check it out. A little extra brain training can't hurt either. ?

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] simo6:
I confirm it's something relating to emui 4.0

Peak crashes even on b320. Everything working fine on b180..

could you please have a look at this post -> http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=66751436&postcount=45

is it possible to integrate that into your rom? It seems to be a solution to get multi-window at honor 7.
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
Sure thing!

[MENTION=220328]paulobrien[/MENTION]

i have looked into the package now- Maybe it is a fake! the xml file has many links and i am not sure about that!

be careful!!! . It can be a white list for apps which will work with multi window too.

What did you think about that?

I wouldn't include anything without thoroughly checking it myself first.

[MENTION=220328]paulobrien[/MENTION]

something usable for MoDaCo rom:

hide able navbar: we need the TouchPlus.apk v. 1.1.1 and a changed entry in the buil.prob than it works!

build.prob entry to do: "ro.config.hw_touchplus_enabled=false" set it to "true"

this will made the setup menu for touchplus visible!

can you please insert this?

kind regards
[Honor 7 Android Development] Icetea:
it seems that the development of MoDaCo rom is (temporary) discontinued.

No changes since a view weeks. No posts from OP.
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
Au contraire. New build imminent!

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] Icetea:
I stay tuned....

question about that: new version as full rom or as update.zip?
[Honor 7 Android Development] woahnelly:
Been running 4.1 for a few days now after caving in and finally unlocking bootloader. All smooth sailing so far. Thanks for this rom and all the guides in general. Very much appreciated!
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
Full rom dirty flash.

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] Icetea:
isn`t it possible to get an update zip also? I spend a lot time to optimize your rom. Do not want to redo that!

(remove bloodware; rooted; hidden navbar; remove many apps; changed launcher and keybord; changed theme; and so on....)

think about to change to Mate 8

Let`s see, what is arriving me faster, the new rom or the new phone.:D
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
I'm working on a particularly challenging technical problem at the moment. But I'd I can overcome it, it'll be good. ?

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
The main thing holding me up on this now is re-odexing.

I've deodexed the ROM because we want framework deodexed (to allow us to modify it) but i'd like the option of odexed app directories for fast boots and space saving.

Used to be easy, not got it working on Marshmallow yet. Will update with further progress.

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] chris_dis:
Didn't Ryrzy do that with his rom? Maybe he's got some tips for that.
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
As far as I know, he's using the stock odex. We really need the deodexed framework for some super-cool tweaks that are coming.

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] chris_dis:
Oh, didn't know that. Can't wait for your new version, I really like your rom.
[Honor 7 Android Development] Matze6989:
What for super cool tweaks are coming and when there are coming???
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
All in good time my friend! ?

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] t-ryder:
Once again since you ignored my PM, Sir.

Is there a chance I get and may use the sources for the hacks/tweaks of

- Updated power management policies to reduce instances of 'missing notifications'

- Specific Camera app launch speed optimisations

:o
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
Hi, there are no sources for them per se, but you can use whatever you like!

[Honor 7 Android Development] Icetea:
i think, he wants to get some inspirations.;)
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
MoDaCo Custom ROM r5 is now online in the first post!

New in this release...

Updated all apps

Further size and performance optimisations

Spectrum MCR theme now included by default - no more icon replacements!

MoDaCo Custom Kernel (MCK r2) is now included. Updated to 3.10.101 with ikconfig-pulled stock config

Install script now uses rm for improved flash speed

Removed unneeded ISO contents (will add new content in future release)

Removed preloaded pics (space saving for future features, such as ADB binaries and drivers in the ISO)

Corrected several ROM typos

Touchplus changes (user request, untested)

Multiwindow changes (user request, untested)

Starting with this release, the ROM is now completely in version control - https://gitlab.com/paulobrien/android_mcr_honor_7/commits/mcr - so you can exactly what's changed in each release (or use the changes in your own ROM!)

This version of the ROM remains deodexed for increased hackability, we will move to a 'hybrid' odex/deodex model in the future. This means a long first boot time, so please be patient.

If you are running an odexed ROM, you need to check your logcat for 'dex2oat' errors - I've seen a LOT of these occuring on the Honor 7, which can affect system performance considerably.

Enjoy the ROM! :)

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] Aegnor:
Thanks for the constant updates, i wish to give a try regardless the problem i had with the 4.1 (twrp error) :)
[Honor 7 Android Development] borsosg:
Hi Paul!

Firstly, thanks for your work, and this amazing ROM. I use your r4.1 now, and I am very satisfied with it. Can I do a "dirty install"? So without wipe?
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
Yes, dirty flash is fine.

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] chris_dis:
Would it be possible to use another GApps package in future builds? Because I don't need half of the google apps and it's kinda annoying to delete them because they are flagged as system apps.
[Honor 7 Android Development] simo6:
already dirty flashed. everything running smooth.

how to enable multiwindow feature?
[Honor 7 Android Development] Aegnor:
Do i need to rename it update.zip and flash it or just going straight away through twrp? Last time i had issues and i couldn't flash it properly..now i'm using another rom and the structure in the file zip is different from this rom, any suggestions? Thanks :)

Edit: Nothing to do, this time it was flashed correcty but just at the booting screen it stuck for a long time (too much for a boot, 10-15mins) and the phone became hot
[Honor 7 Android Development] ASMstudent:
Flashed this ROM and it's not bad but doesn't feel different from stock ROM, is it possible to get a stock Android based ROM?
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
Not completely currently. You'll like what's coming though.

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] joelk2:
im sure ive asked before but cant find it, is it pre rooted? or can i choose no root on install?
[Honor 7 Android Development] ASMstudent:
I already like your ROM and your work is really appreciated but the idea of having stock Android is having simple light ROM you can tweak and customize as you want so stockifying a EMUI ROM(themes , launcher , etc) will be missing the whole idea of pure AOSP
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
Sure, maybe someone else will do that for you!

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] ASMstudent:
Thanks anyway
[Honor 7 Android Development] Matze6989:
I have installed the r5 but the kernel ist r1. Show screenshot
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
Oh that's weird! I'll check it out.

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] Mitashi:
Great work Paul!
[Honor 7 Android Development] Aegnor:
Any suggestion about stick in the boot screen after flashing? I suppose i'll go for a full wipe instead of the dirty flash
[Honor 7 Android Development] Szumy:
What's coming ? :D

+ I have a problem look what for kernel I have [emoji15]
[Honor 7 Android Development] ASMstudent:
+1
[Honor 7 Android Development] Szumy:
I had to install your new kernel apart and after install my phone rebooted once. Not sure why
[Honor 7 Android Development] ASMstudent:
After flashing the kernel, scrolling is smoother now , battery more stable and finally multi window is now working (after editing build.prop) . Maybe it's the stock kernel that didn't make me feel the difference .

[Honor 7 Android Development] Icetea:
Multiwindow patch:

vs

:confused:
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
The MW patch is a special case. It's almost like it working is region dependent - although it doesn't show for me, it does for some people (even though I can see it being initialised in logcat).

Odd.

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
Oh snap, having said that, just spotted an error re: multiwindow in the build.prop. I'll fix that!

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] Matze6989:
How can i activated the multiwindows?
[Honor 7 Android Development] Icetea:
and btw: WHY I CAN NOT FIND YOUR NEW KERNEL???

stay at 3.10.86!!!
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
Not sure why it's not flashed for you, I'll look into it!

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] Icetea:
have flashed B330 full stock at first! so my phone was really stock! But after flashing your rom, it was the old kernel there!
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
Multiwindow issue and kernel flash issue fixed, uploading r6 now.

[Honor 7 Android Development] chris_dis:
Version r6 is obsolete if I installed the kernel manually and don't care about the multiwindow feature right?
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
Correct.

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] ASMstudent:
Just change multi window line in build.prop into true and you will get multi window as well but I fail every time I try to add new apps
[Honor 7 Android Development] Icetea:
all right, so it has to be.

i have re-flashed my whole system with fastboot.

Followed by fresh install B330 stock.

Followed by installing twrp302 at recovery2.

Followed by reinstalling my old stock B330 backup with all my apps. (TWRP)

Followed by installing MoDaCo v6. and SuperSu 2.72beta at the same time.

After reboot all my presets are present! Only some (for me useless apps) are to remove and than it is working fine.

All i need in the future is the next version with AROMA installer.:D
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
I'm working on that too! A config utility or similar.

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] Icetea:
multiwindow is working as expected

[MENTION=220328]paulobrien[/MENTION]

can you please realize my next user request?

I want to insert netspeed indicator and LTE indicator into this rom

two changes are necessary for it:

The path is : Cust / hw / EU / prop / local.prop

You have to change ro.config.hw_hide_lte = true with ro.config.hw_hide_lte = false for LTE indicator

and

ro.config.hw_hideNetworkSpeed ​​= true with ro.config.hw_hideNetworkSpeed ​​= false for netspeed indicator

found this patch here:http://xdaforums.com/honor-7/development/rom-6-0-x-yodarom-v1-0-mm-rooted-ads-t3338179/page37

Edit: have tried it out by myself and it works as expected.

[MENTION=220328]paulobrien[/MENTION]

Is using your kernel enough, to get the better functionality of your power management on other B330 variants too?

Maybe together with a rooted stock rom? Or do i need other parts too?
[Honor 7 Android Development] cycovision:
Since I have updated from r1 deodexed to r6 my xposed doesn't work anymore.. i also have no hwtheme entry in my build.prop .. root seems to work properly, xposed Log is empty.. any suggestions?
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
The problem is hwtheme!

P
[Honor 7 Android Development] cycovision:
Yep but since I do not have this entry in build.prop at all. Can you tell me what I have to fill in exactly?
[Honor 7 Android Development] t-ryder:
ro.config.hwtheme=1

for working EMUI theme engine

or

ro.config.hwtheme=0

for disabled EMUI theme engine to use Xposed...

inside

/system/emui/base/prop/local.prop

:)
[Honor 7 Android Development] hachuwaka:
I'd want to request two new additions to the ROM.

1. The 4G setting in the Quick Settings display. (I think I saw it in the YodaRom post)

2. That touch button that blocked the screen on Lollipop, I want it back on Marshmallow's EMUI, since it disappeared from it but it's available in other launcher, but I like EMUI's.

As you can see, these changes would be quite useful. Thanks, Paulobrien, for all your work.
[Honor 7 Android Development] Icetea:
BTW: the xposed version of [MENTION=3562083]wanam[/MENTION] should work with theme engine function set to "on"

I have found this suggestion at the German android-hilfe.de forum.

is it possible 4U to integrate the updat B370 into your MoDaCo rom?
[Honor 7 Android Development] paulobrien:
r7

Updated to latest release (B370)

Updated to bring ROM in line with other Honor devices, as part of unified ROM project.

Preparation for 'stock style' release

Application updates
[Honor 7 Android Development] DigiGoon:
What are the changelogs for B370?

UPDATE: Got it, never mind. Was not following Modaco for soo long. :D
[Honor 7 Android Development] t-ryder:
What is this supposed to mean?

And by the way, what are those MCR optimization scripts?

My H7T ROM was updated to base B370 some days ago, but I am curious how your magic works.

Are those Linux console scripts you use? Mind sharing that stuff so I can learn something?

I updated my ROM to v8.0 B370 by using beyond compare with B330 stock and B370 stock, deodexed the updated stuff and patched

into my MCR r6 based H7T v5.7 B330 build after optimizing most APKs using miniCygwin GOptimize. I almost lost overview when

cooking that Frankenstein ROM. If I could use your scripts to optimize further it would be nice.
[Honor 7 Android Development] HonorCasper:
Did you remove the Huawei update app from your ROM? I've tried to get back to stock b330, but on Yodarom the stock recovery says that there is no update.zip, so i would try via your ROM if it still got the update app?

---------- Post added at 09:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 AM ----------

Ive checked your changelog and I can't see it has been removed?
[Honor 7 Android Development] HonorCasper:
But am i right? Could you please confirm that the Rom got the huawei update app??

---------- Post added at 01:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:06 PM ----------

Or maybe its better just to flash your ROM, that way I will end up with b370 anyway?
[Honor 7 Android Development] t-ryder:
[MENTION=7384190]HonorCasper[/MENTION]

MCR r7 - no Honor update app included.
[Honor 7 Android Development] HonorCasper:
Can i Flash directly from Yodarom v9 with b330 base or how do you recommend I go from before mentioned ROM and to yours??
[Honor 7 Android Development] Piemo:
Running this since the weekend, just my 2pence:

-very stable, but notifications keep missing after a while (weren't them fixed by B370?!)

-locksreen notifications works with 480dpi stock theme, with any difference they disappear

-root is working but only in systemless mode

-xposed v86 working flawlessly

I'm experiencing issue only with AdAway app that keeps crashing, dunno if it's systemless root or what, but on B330 was working

Maybe in next versione you could update the list of compatibile app for dualwindow (there is a single file to change)

Good work! Keep it up ?
