Hello to all of my ideos (u8150) users and developers. today an amazing developer stopped working on an amazing rom, (which i have on my ideos) and because of this i browsed many roms for this phone and came up with nothing that could compare to it, and inspiration struck and i thought "since work for the rom is discontinued, and there is lack of support for many other roms, why not try to ban together a team to work on an even better rom?

before continuing, let me point out im not a dev. matter of fact i know nothing about writing roms, but i do know that the ideos is a brillant phone that deserves a strong team to back up software for it. thats where the developers that i will try to recruit will come in.

the basic idea of this "project" is simple.

1. one developer will start with a basic version. when he is done with contributions, he will then pass it on to another, then another, and so on.

2. finally, when the team sees the project as coming to a rap, the rom will be distributed through out the team and tested, and as problems come up, the team can collaberate on the issues, and when everything is working properly, RELEASE!!!!!

now i know some readers of this will ask "whats the difference between this and how roms are made now? well its simple, the objective of this is to expand the margin of knowledges from different locations, instead of using near by developers and friends. keep in mind what one area knows, one may not.

anyway, any dev is welcome to join to the project. rules and regs will be added when a variety of members have joined.

also, if any ideas of how the team will collaberate come up, feel free to offer up what you got :)

PLEASE JOIN!!!!!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
come on people give me feed back!!!

a little incentive? okay. if a larger development team works on the roms then, roms could be produced faster, and more efficent. so if any developers are out there reading, then take up the project. with alot of devs, it wont be too time consuming either, thus making it so you could work on your own roms as well.

Greetings :hi:

I'm in ^^

not a .dev or much of anything @ the mo :lol: owned the U8150 for a couple months now (previously modding Motorola)

bricked & brought back to life my IDEOS four times... (so far) ph seems pretty indestructible but very sensitive to any system fiddling.

linux is confusing the heck outa me :chortle: back to the bottom of the learning curve I guess ;)

but I'll help in any way I can...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
great, im glad i have another supporter on bored :) !!!!! the first thing that needs to be done befor anything is rally up more support. we need devs, stat. even if they dont normally do ideos roms, the more support for this we get, the better the chances of this working out. if possible i would like to get the development process started sometime this week so i really need you to get any, higher ups or (most importantly) developers, to get on bored.

and for any ideos user reading this, its for all of our benifits so help out too!!!!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
also, i would like to point out, that the process i listed to begin with dosnt have to be how it works. i want the devs to decide how the collaberation works.

just think of all the things that yall want out of the ideos. if this happens, there will be a higher chance of these things happening.

1. 3D

2. can i hear a 2.3?

3. cyanogen mod

4. over clocking that actually works!!!!

5. maybe instead of knock offs of 2.2 or 2.2 with a different launcher and them, we could actually see REAL homebrew roms that are 100% user created.

now you cant tell me that dosnt sound good right? :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] nba1341:
I want overclocking that works :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
well there you go!!!! :) as soon as we can get some developers on bored with "working together" then we might can achieve that and many other goals.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lazydesi:
I am in,

My idea is not to have many features and concentrating on developing 2.3 first and then slowly on 3.0.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
alright!!!!!! but let me go ahead and tell you, 3.0 would blow up an ideos :D. it wont even load a honeycomb theme much less the system. (turns ideos into a pile of ask and smoke.) 2.3 would be the better focus in my opinion. but anyway back to the thanks yous and campaigning, thanks for joining and if possible get every single person (even if the only electronic they know how to use is vcr) that is at least somewhat capable of programing roms.

so the point is still.......you guessed it!!!!.........MORE PEOPLE!!!!!! :)

.........sorry i had 4 hours of sleep so im stupid right now.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] maury1234:
3.0 is for qHD tablets(540 x 960).. while our device is qvga (240 x 320).. it surely can load and everything but.. won't be able to display every single detail, such as the taskbar will be miniature...Apart from that, it's better to continue developing 2.3 Gingerbread, since we already have the ports and the only leftovers will be tweaking the builds we already have to make them useful.

Thank you! :)

Count me in.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
Well theres a partially working overclock thats in private beta testing but I will push it to public soon.

As for the project itself - great idea. I think focusing on gingerbread is the way to go along with a kernel overclock with gingerbread
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] maury1234:
mann that sounds nice! well i think we should use the sources for froyo and tweak it to work/start devices on ginger
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
Heres a link to the Oced kernel http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?2370q8r5tx4fish. Just chmod the file in Linux and Mac and for all Oses just double click the appropriate file to flash the new boot image. You will need to be in bootloader mode when you do this.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] maury1234:
hey man can i implement it in my rom?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
Feel free. (But please do credit me for compiling the kernel):)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
you see? careing and sharing CAN be fun :D joking aside i love the smell of development in the morning. this is a great start. so its agreed 2.3 is the best approach? well then maury 1234 seems to have a lot done on it so i say, (if its allright with her) build of hers. :) its deffinatly up for consideration so maury what you say?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
oh and btw maury, sadly i cant install the v3 to see how its working because im stuck with an outdated version of clockwork -_- so do you have any testers?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] maury1234:
sure man...btw im a guy...you can use my builds...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] maury1234:
use ultrajack's recovery....later on ill update update-script to updater
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
okay so i installed ultrajack, downloaded the rom, installed it but i got stock clean rom v5 instead of gingerbread. :D apperently the link to the download was right but what it downloads was wrong. do you have a fix?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
@rlaugh0095

The idea you suggested with a developer making improvements and then passing it on on the first post is good but I don't think it will work (sorry :() What I think will work however is a central location where all developers can make contributions (it has worked for many great projects including FFmpeg and VLC). I think we should set up a Git Repo and commit a ROM as the first commit. We should use maury's, mine or FusionDev's I would think.

We can progress development from there. What I've said here is just my opinion - Your idea may work better, I don't know, but the method I have suggested is tried and tested and does work.

Thanks. :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
lol it dosnt matter to me, im just a spark to get the dev fire going, and as i clearly stated, i want the devs to decide how its done :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] maury1234:
let me upload the version again..

ill look at implementing the updater-script so it will work with clockwork
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
thank you, cant wait to see whats up. btw, sorry for calling you her :O wasnt paying attentio.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] maury1234:
i second that man! we should make a repo for everyone to implement stuff

open source ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
OK. I have created a Froyo git Repo here and will be pushing maury's ROM to it soon. I'll also create a gingerbread one and push to that one as soon as maury's gingerman as soon as he uploads it
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
allright good thinking :) i totally cant wait to see what comes out of this. too bad fusiondev quit. :( i think he could have made a huge impact to the project.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] maury1234:
I'm uploading a Gingerbread Cyanogen version :D maybe we can work with that one...if not I'll upload an AOSP SDK version.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
wow that covers two must haves for ideos users in one!!! good job :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
OK so Froyo is up in the repo. Maury is uploading gingerbread so im not going to bother with that. I think that's it for me today. It's quite late here.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
allright good night :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aceoyame:
I am interested in developing. I have a barebones rom ready to be released in the next couple of days. It is nearly 100% polished due to the fact it is based on the same changes done with my CM 6.1 barebones for the vogue/kaiser/polaris. So I also have previous experience.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aceoyame:
Isn't that the point of GIT? To develop and hand on the work. I think it would work if you set up a repo for it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
yeah, as i said in early posts. any dev is welcome! :) im sure you will be put to good use.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=Huawei_U8150_IDEOS

is there anyway to get our thread onto this page? i think if its more out in the open we could get more devs and support :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] BR-ANDROID:
im in

show me where to sign androids my life
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aceoyame:
A lot of the changes people are requesting are ones with the kernel... We should set up a kernel branch on the GIT repo as well.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] maury1234:
I second that. It should speed up Ginger
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
OK everyone. Just uploading the kernel to the Git Repo. I have relocated the repo to here, so that it looks more official. The kernel is being uploaded to the kernel branch and should appear fairly soon. Anyone who wants write access to the repo, just post you github username and I will grant you access.

I'll also be uploading the Froyo branch when maury releases v10 and will be uploding the gingerbread branch soon and the cyano 6.1 ASAP.

BTW maury - u do know that gingerman is cyano 7 right... :) (just checking - you probably do)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] maury1234:
v10 is here http://www.mediafire.com/?0e5zkb3v6az3v3s :)

Yeahhh it's a good thing we have a booting cyanogen 7 build ;) maybe we can get it to work and strip it more
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
once again, i love the smell of development in the morning :) i see that we finally reached a point where everyone knows what they are doing, but to make sure everything goes as planed, i think we need to elect a leader. i vote tilal because he has already made many alot of intelligent instructive contributions.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
Thanks - I'm touched. However I feel a better idea is to have a joint leadership with me and maury since it is his ROM as a base that we're using.

Also how would you like to do some developing yourself? :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
thats a great idea :D and as i said in the really long introduction, im not a devloper. im just a spark to get the developer flames burning. but funny story, i felt bad for not contributing so i downloaded kitchen and tryed messing around, and i some how deleted all the files that tell my phone that its a t-mobile phone, so it wouldnt sink to a signal, so i had to go back and reinstall the official u.s rom. my bro who knows a lot more than me on the devvloping subject looks at me, and smacks me in the side of the head and says "how can you possible be so stupid". :D

so as you see if i tried to develop, i think the project would "crash and burn" (hackers reference)

but im not just gonna sit around and watch yall do the hard work, ill pitch in on the support part. ( finding fresh devs, getting the buzz out, and also a peace keeper if any arguments break out later in the project (which im sure they will),

and of coarse testing. i dont know a lot about deving, but i know about android enough to spot any gliches or what ever.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
Good. Good. I think thats an important role to have for any dev team. I've got Froyo up - its just maury's r10 for now.

However I think it would be good for you to get a github account so we have another method of contacting each other and also an official place to lodge suggestions etc.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
allright ill set one up :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
GAPPs is up guys. Gingerman next.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
allright i set it up. what do i do now? :)

never mind i got it!!! o.O
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
Screatch what I said - I've added you

Mauruy - I've already added you. If you make any changes to your ROM, could you upload them to the git page? :)

We should create a separate thread on XDA I think as well where we can have an issues page and features we are working on.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
i sent you a message so you should be able to find me and add me. :D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
Added you and also uploaded gingerman - just cyanoman to go...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
okay about the seperate thread, i say leave this as a recruitment page :D and also, who wants to make it? and whoever wants to make it, post a link or something when your done.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] maury1234:
Sure man! I'll update the builds from now on on Git :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
I'll make it and reserve the second post - maury you should reserve the third and rlaugh you the 4th

The second post will be the one with changelog etc.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=12244110 - quick to reserve posts - otherwise they will be gone
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
OK - thats it from me today. I think a lot has been accomplished today. All the builds are up on git. We have the beginnings of a great team and we have a solid base and thread page to build on...

BTW Cyanoman build is up :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] rlaugh0095:
ah thats good news and very true, i know its a long ways away but i cant wait to see some final product :D we got a brilliant team so im sure it'll blow peoples minds.

with group permission i would like to implement shifts. first thing to do is to get at least two more devs, so we have a bigger work force, then after words i would like to set up a to do list, so when the first group is done working on it they can say whats been changed and what still needs work so the next shift can know what to work on. by doing this the margin of what is getting done is way bigger! :)

thoughts, opinions, and questions?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
We just need one more developer - I've added aceoyame to the team
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] AndytheAndroid:
Is FUSIONdev apart of the team?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
Not yet - ill ask him
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aceoyame:
I just had an idea, we could use the auto odex and zipalign script for /data from the kaiser builds, my barebones has it in the files but I don't think it is initialized properly due to the fact that we do not have a userinit file. Also the script I have to odex /system is not working due to the fact /system get's mounted as RO so I am wondering how we could go about odex'ing that as well. As far as theming goes as long as you have your theme set up the way you want and then odex it works fine. I used to do that on my kaiser when I dev'd for it. Odexing the framework and the launcher will bring the biggest performance boosts.

So what I am asking as well is, is there another way to odex a build besides the phone side? Like is there a command that can be run through ADB?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
No one has figured out a way so far

ROM problems

Hi guys. I am in a lot of trouble with my ideos.

Tried installing a custom ROm using ROM manager and it failed, although the original ROM is still there and its booting up and working perfectly.

However, when i try to boot into recovery, only the lit blackscreen shows.

I have tried everything from running ULTRAjack recovery on windows(which only shows 'waiting for device' on cmd, with the pdanet drivers installed) to ubuntu(which shows 'waiting for device' on Amon-ra recovery and permission denied on ULTRAjack).

Could it be i didnt root the device properly since i used z4 root?

Any more ideas?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] veer1238:
I had the same problem....n this is how i fixed install rom manager from the market and flash clockwork custom recovery mod..select huawei Ascend nt pulse mini or you will the black screen again...once done reboot in recovery mode...hope this fix yours as it did for me;-)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] briankariu:
Let me try, I will get back to you
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] briankariu:
Worked like magic. I think that should be included in the Huawei Ideos superfaq. Thanks a lot.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] crispybbq:
Awesome! But there appears to be some issues.

Firstly, it's for the C8150. I assume this wouldn't be a problem. As there are soon to be no CDMA networks in NZ, and we don't get C8150s at all, I can't verify this. can anyone else? :D

Also, it appears this tj_style fellow is going for a "closed" approach to his development. Correct me if I'm wrong, as this was a first impression. That said, it would be nice if this work were distributed on its own - it would be invaluable to the community. :O
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tilal6991:
The c8150 and our phone are similar enough to alllow me to incorporate it as soon as its released
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tj_style:
what you mean about "closed"?

soon i will share the :

-boot.img

-zImage

-Patched source code

-and also patch file for vanilla huawei kernel source

so you can choose what do you want to use.

be patient..

and also about kernel or ROM of C8150 and U8150 you can flash vice versa if the base of ROM is from official.

Oops :o, I was just about to amend my post after I actually read the other thread in more detail. Terribly sorry for my initial assumptions :o.

Thanks for clearing up the U8150/C8150 uncertainty of mine also, and of course for this fantastic development. ^_^

EDIT: And I shall indeed be patient. :D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tj_style:
ok that's fine :-)..

And about multitouch development.

After I release the all stuff of the multitouch function, I hope all developer can open discussion on my thread or anywhere to fixing the axis inversion problem.

Sent from my Ideos
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] crispybbq:
Axis inversion? Like, where you can't have the touch points in the same x or y position as the other? (like in Apple's trackpad rotation, for example) If it is this, we may be out of luck as it's most likely a hardware issue :(

However, I'm not much of a coder, so it's not really my field... I'll help out however I can though. ^_^
