You don't need the bootloader to instal SU, just ADB, I was refering to the ADB commands in section 6 of that post.

I'll put together an package for you that works, if you have the SDK installed. You should uninstall Superuser.apk from your phone, and probably swapper as well before doing this.

Right, download this: http://rapidshare.com/files/416792680/SU-install.rar

1.Extract it into the Tools directory of the SDK

2. For conveinience, copy the entire Tools directory to the root directory, i.e. C:\, of your PC

3.On the phone, go to 'Settings -> Applications -> Development' and check 'USB Debugging'

4.Connect the phone via USB, and let windows detect the drivers automatically.

5. You should get two notifications on your phone "USB Debugging Connected" and "unmount SDcard", this is normal, and shows the USB connection is working. You don't need to do anything else with the phone.

6. Open a command prompt on your pc (Start - Run - CMD.exe)

7. Type: CD c:\tools

adb root

(unplug/replug the phone)

adb shell mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

SUE

(follow the instructions, and that should be it)

If you get any errors along the way let me know, it's been a while since I did this. Download the SDK from here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

Hope this makes sense :D

BTW, I can't take any credit for the SUE batch file, I found it somewhere ages ago, and can't remember who wrote it, so whoever you are: Thank You!

P.S. Just found that it was written by SANGEET.003 on this forum - nice one mate:)
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Firestrikers:
Oh, good, thanks so much! :D And also thanks SANGEET.003, the batch file was so usefull! Hmm this could be a good tutorial. Why doesn't this phone gets his own section?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] adstraylight:
I've thought about starting a new thread, but thought that this is the only place in the forum to get information on these phones with regard to their general quality etc. So maybe posts on other devices are interesting, even if you don't own one.

At the moment most posts seem to be about only two devices anyway, and frankly I don't relish the cut/paste job of transferring all the stuff I've posted already!

There is an open Wiki page, but pace of development is fast, particularly for the T5353++, it would be hard to keep up :D

I think this may settle with the immanent release of A2.2, so I may look at doing something then.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Firestrikers:
If you plan on doing something, I am offering you a hand, I really only know the basics of these phones, and I really suxed at school at Linux XD But I'm learning!

Swapper 2 seems to work, the busybox that I use isn't the download from swapper 2 but I just copied the library to memory card and than copied and edited it with an terminal ON my device..
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] adstraylight:
I'm impressed! That's more than I know how to do! My aproach with IT stuff is to identify the need, then see if someone cleverer than me has already found an answer, or has done something I can easily adapt :D I'm not a coder in any sense:o

What did you edit in the terminal?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Firestrikers:
Sorry, I really didn't edit the library, I just edited the permision (set chmod to 4755) and to make sure that swapper 2 finds busybox install i used "# export PATH=/data/busybox:$PATH"
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] a_sun_of_beach:
hey, you remember you asked me about zimage?

it is not on the SD card nor has it ever been on one BUT.... i found it in the CD they sent with the phone (CD includes the ROM to reflash and the user manual "in chinese"). You think something can be done now with the zimage file?

i've wasted so much time on looking for an answer that i'm starting to hate my phone. I'm seriously thinking about sticking with WM for now and when A2.2 has been around and used by a lot of users, i'll just install it based on everyones' feedback.

thanks again for your time.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] adstraylight:
Sorry, I may have steered you in the wrong direction, I should have said that zimage is one of the flash files that is in fact the boot image, and the system kernel for Android. I was only asking if it was on your SDcard as I was trying to determine whether you were running the original dual boot system that had Android running from the SD, rather than being integrated into the system memory of the phone.

Sorry to have wasted your time. I think that if you flash the ROM again, it will cure your issue, by resetting and rewriting all the system files to factory default.

Did your 2GB SDcard arrive yet?

Yes, it can be very frustrating, but stick with it, things do get better. I remember being at my wits end trying to get Android market to work with the A2.0 version! Tried everything, and it still wouldn't work, so did the same as you and resorted to WM.

It does sound like your CD has a copy of the flash files, but I'd use the version on solonomi.com/rom/ to be sure that you're getting the correct language.

A2.2 is STILL not released - there are some pretty annoyed people on the Chinese forums :D

The cameras are all probably rubbish - I thought they were all AF? The HOT D3 only has 128MB of RAM atm (they pretty much blatantly lied about the RAM) but there will be a HOT D3+ with 256MB coming out allegedly. The T5388 is pretty well respected though

If your phone is dual SIM, have a look at this page:

NB: Download links only work from the direct page, NOT google Translate, so have 2 browser tabs open to navigate, one direct, one translated.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] adstraylight:
As far as I know, the kernel has to be written specifically for your hardware, so simply mixing files designed for other phones wont work. The only hope you have is that someone in China, where these phones are more popular, has written a port to your device, but I wouldn't hope to hard.

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] adstraylight:
Sorry then, I don't think I can help you, all I can suggest is that you scan forums like mobileuncle.com and 592zn.com, for references to your device (that's how I started), and eventually get a lead to either the original manufacturer's site or some Chinese phone dealer with a handy file repository.

Good luck.

Can the person you bought it from at least give you the name of the manufacturer?

Yea I did mention it, that email was the answer I got XD
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] adstraylight:
Yes:rolleyes: I got the same reply to my query about the timezone bug...we can but hope that they take notice:D

BTW, the 'export' command you used with SU, can it be used for system properties as well? I just thought that it might help with the Gscript problem. I've read that to effect a change of timezone in Java, you have to notify the alarm clock server in Android, but translating this into a simple command script rather than building an apk to switch the timezone (which frankly is beyond my knowledge) seems impossible.

It's not worth wasting too much of your time on, I just wondered. In any case, with luck it won't be an issue in A2.2.....

[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] adstraylight:
Ok, after 5mins of research, I found out that other names for your phone are Tops A1, and Red Diamond2,

From the same site as I pointed you to before, here is the page for the Tops A1:

http://www.cnsoji.com/list.php?cid-73.html

It seems there are two versions of this phone, one has 512MB ram, the other 256, but otherwise they seem identical, don't know if you'll be able to flash a rom for the 256 version onto the 512, as up untill 10 mins ago, i new nothing about this phone, but I hope this lead gets you somewhere.

BTW, on this site there is a navigation menu on the right hand side of the screen that lists all the devices they have files for, so maybe if it's not this page, it may be one of the others.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] netss:
mmm..

thank you very much my friend, but this version of rom dont working in my device..

My device version is 256/256... and this version rom is for 512/256mb...

my seller dont response with help..
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] netss:
I checked with my supplier .. it seems that they sent me a wrong phone .. it should have a version of 512/256, but equally .. not find the correct rom version ..

Agredesco you very much for your help .. because I'm pretty new to this ..
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] Firestrikers:
The export command isn't really exporting files or so, it's to set the installpath to a variable, that's why swapper 2 does find busybox..

Things that I hope that will be fixed at 2.2

-Autorotation doesn't always work!

-Maybe better battery<->device communication

-Less freezes

PS. Do you know wich usb controller the t5353++ has?

A2.2 Released!!

Or not - this is a quote from a Chinese forum:

I'm going to try it anyway :D

I have all those issues too - all to do with lack of RAM IMHO, try setting Swappiness to 60 rather than Swapper's default 10, this made a big improvement for me.

P.S. Sorry, no idea what the USB hardware is....

With my t5388i never had a problem ..

but my t5388 (a1 + + tops / touch Diamond2 a1 + +) that if I had the same problems and you have your .. The reason is because they did not have the correct rom ..

FIRST USER REVIEW BY: Lexys_aid , September 7, 2010 , 17:07

Filled a Android 2.2:

1 . Languages only Chinese and English

2. Contacts with Sim-card can not be imported into the phone, having to add contacts via sync with gmail

3 . Video in AVI container and will not play . Tried a bunch of players , we can blame percent arm v5.

4. GPS is not able to verify , in the house does not take

5. WiFi works , the market too . Applications uploaded to the memory card instead of phone memory.

6. Updated program under the camera

7. How ustanavlivkat applications on a memory card and do not understand.

-----------------------------------

kind of still contemplating if i should switch over to A2.2 or stick with WM6.5:confused:
[Touch Diamond2, Pure ROM Development] adstraylight:
A2.2 observations

The phone boots much faster - YAY!:) Also you don't get the annoying error message at boot!

Initially impressed with the slicker interface, and generally quicker operation.

Most of the apps in the Market are now unavailable to this phone, but still work when found via alternate methods, and indeed are more stable.

Unable to use Swapper, as the 'swapon' command is not implemented in this build, but if you use launcher pro and set it to stay in memory then disable caching, it stays pretty snappy.

Lockbot (better lock-screen) seems a lot more stable also.

There is no Flash player, nor is it in the Market, nor do any of the versions I've found so far on the web work, in fact only one of them actually installs :(

There is no YouTube App, and m.youtube doesn't work, a possible workaround may be using Skyfire instead of the stock browser.

Timezone and Camera Bugs are still present :(

Apps2SD Works! Only for apps with this function eneabled - which right now isn't many.

There is a bug that occurs after uninstalling an app, where the settings menu Force-Closes when trying to return to the application list (not a big deal).

ADB works fine, with the benefit of being able to be used without mounting the SDcard to the PC, this means that you can access the SD via ADB shell, something that was impossible before.

Battery life seems pretty much unchanged.

All in all, so far the system feels more stable, and able to cope with minor hicups without restarting, but I'm already looking forward to the next edition;). From what I've read, this seems to be A2.2 ported to a stable version of the A2.1 kernel, the install notes say that "upgrade remain unchanged", which I suppose means that not all of th A2.2 features can be implemented, it is also maked as the "first edition" which would suggest there is more to come...
