[UPDATE 7/24][ROM][BL1.2] Honeycomb Android Illuminate for The Gtablet\Zpad T2

Mod Edit: As stated by forum moderator jerdog in post 814:
FORUM RULES:
"Encouraging members to participate in forum activities on other phone related sites is prohibited."
The issue here is that directing traffic elsewhere is against XDA rules, and while there is no requirement to actively support your development efforts here at XDA, saying it probably won't be supported at XDA and that they can get support on your forum is kind of low and has been removed after requesting LBS do so - to which he did not after 2 days.

cool let me know what you think so far and if you let me know what the things are you missing the most and really need besides Flash. LOL but yeah I want to make this a Honeycomb that is a well rounded Android. So i want the advice of new features and such they have heard about.

Checked out the youtube video, looks pretty sweet. Will try it out tomorrow to see the improvements with hardware acceleration etc.
Edit: Let's see some benchmark comparisons between BoS and Illuminate.

Make sure you do the following
Unzip recover.zip and move recovery folder to /sdcard folder
The recover.zip file can be found in the Roebeets thread

Humm -- I got stuck with the boot loop . I am updating from 3588 stock recovery
Regards,
Kenny N

After half an hour struggling, I am able to load your HoneyComb edition. I am going to play around with it.
To make everyone's life easier.
Make sure you nvflash your device first using the following nvflash image
http://www.mediafire.com/?g7vorg66iiq29vm
1. Download the nvflash image above.
2. Download the recover.zip from (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=596319&d=1305415712 ) and extract the recovery folder to SD root
3. Download this honeycomb image and rename it to update.zip and copy it to your SD root
4. nvflash the nvflash image
5. Reboot with Power + Volumn up. This should bring you to the new bootloader
6. Flash the SDCard external update.zip
7. Wipes
9. Restart
G'd luck . Thanks linuxboxsolution for his contribution. I will comment later.

Nice -- OpenGL is working perfectly. The benchmark from Quandrant is 1780. Not great but can't really complain

That's funny, I could have sworn you claimed previously to have "fixed flash" too!

Does enabling OpenGL break the stock browser? Or have you done something to work around this issue?
Is the main difference from Roebeet's HCAdam and Vegacomb mashup that is Bottle of Smoke that you have enabled opengl?

This looks very promising, currently running BoS 3.3 and was about to jump to 4.1 but I might have to try this first. My apologies if this has already been covered but what exactly is the difference between this ROM and roe's BoS? How were you able to get hw acceleration on here while BoS lacks it?
Thanks alot for your contribution, and I'll be sure to post my findings later today.

just wondering
so if the opengl is fixed, how come flashed is still hasnt fixed?
i believ robeet said the opengl is what makes flash doesn't work

OpenGL is enabled but not working.. it lacks on driver and without flash no OPENGL.. note on that..
and one more thing.. BoS has HWaccel and working, like gingerbread... the only problem is video HWaccel HD playback..
BoS 3.3 or 4.0+ boot quickly too, smooth UI like that, so i can't really tell what's the difference between the two, except for bootanimation.. LOL

I, for one, appreciate your efforts
Going to start posting in XDA's GTAB forums, at least sporadically. I think enough time has passed and things have changed around here (ie a lot of 1.2 mods are popping up, which I think is a good thing). Plus I'm not really seeing the moderator "changes" that were heavily present in April. So maybe things are back to normal. Maybe.
With that in mind, I wanted to say that your efforts are much appreciated - the end goal is to get a good working HC ROM for the users out there and if you have the ear of some people to make that happen, then that's what counts. I already mentioned in Slatedroid that I plan to pull back a bit after this month with modding the GTAB, so any extra dev / modding work is ALWAYS appreciated, imo.
Thanks again.

Looks awesome, will flash once I get my new PC built >

Thanks roe

So first of all thank you for your work.
But this is different from bottle of smoke because it enables OpenGL right?
Any other changes?

Rich, there is an almost 9 minute video in the first post.

File Explorer

I like to share a thought with everyone, but specially with the programmers.
How come all rom’s for this Smartphone, that looks like a computer, don't include a simple File Explorer?
It’s so basic, isn’t it?
Perhaps next roms can include this simple but so usefull feature....

MIUI has a file explorer, the philosophy for the Oxygen ROM is to make it as light as possible, and from the void. OP : "I hate ROMs out there which impose you their applications, keyboard, launchers and any other trash. No, it's my belief we have market for some reason, so use it."
AFAIK the CM7 got a file explorer... I usually install a new file explorer (the one from Stockwell's B160) when I use other ROMs than MIUI

MIUI is the Rom I just flashed and the explorer in it has 3 option (Navigate/SD Card/FTP) well non of this work with me, e.g., can't see any files.
I don’t have external SD card but we should be able to "navigate" on the phone directories.
The other, I understand and respect the philosophy of keeping things as light as possible, but it’s a file explorer, how heavy could this be?

Tried to use the internal sd card, and I understand your problem. Hopefully there is a fix for this, because the MIUI file explorer is relly nice

MIUI is only nice for the eyes.

I don't really think that MIUI is that useless.. I just underclocked my phone a bit(just 'coz MIUIs default clock freq. is 1018 and I wanted to compare to stock(806)) and quadrant averaged around 2000, which is approximately 500 points higher than an average stock-ROM would have given me..
Well, all stock-ROMs are still froyo, so maybe that is the biggest boost in performance, but in my experience, MIUI with franco-kernel and zram is quite good.
AND it's nice to the eye!
Oh, and I was running minmax, not performance..

I must totally disagree with you there. I find Stockwell's MIUI very fast, even when not overclocked. And with Franco.kernel and zram it is blazing fast.. Maby you didn't try the ROM long enough. At first after you flash it, it stutters in the launcher etc. But i think it just needs to build up cache or something, then after 1-3 minutes it is fast!

Actually android have a file manager by default. I don't understand why the rom creators don't include it.

This thread is pretty much useless...Just use the freaking Market and download Astro or FS File Manager...Is that so hard??

Are you kidding me? In android, you can choose not the share your gmail account. I can understand you can trust google or you don't afraid anything from google. But this is people choices. You can at least respect their additude about that. Do you aware of the market don't work without gmail account? Maybe i don't want to use my any accounts on phone.
If you don't have a file manager, you can't install any application.
Well, this topic is not useless.
Please..

) You're gotta be joking... This is a funny one )
You're saying that you don't want to use the Market at all? If that's the case, than you've made a mistake buying an Android phone or any smartphone for that matter.
I don't mean to offend anybody, but there is nothing to respect here, this attitude is actually childish... If you've installed a custom ROM, then you should know how to install a File Manager from CWM and stop winging about something silly things.

What is the difference with using or without it? I just don't get it the why people forced to use market or data connection. Thats all. Even if the people can use CWM that is not mean they can make update package. I mean update-script .. bla bla.. Filemanager is just 689KB file. I don't get the point removing it.
Whatever. Seems like i can't make myself clear to you.

Market is meant to help you, nobody is forcing you to use it, but if it's there and it's free, why not use it?
I believe there are some licensing issues, as most application developers are not happy when their app is distributed with custom Roms (if the file manager is free, the app developer gets paid through the number of downloads each day and if everybody stops downloading, then developers are not going to be happy). That's why CM7 doesn't have the Google Market and other Roms are missing apps...

pls stop commenting on other people's preferences..
if u think a particular request is childish/stupid/useless/whatever, just ignore the whole thread!
whats the point of teasing/offending other's request and giving no help at all?
to prove that u r superior or what?!
this is indeed childish imho..
pls just stop dis-helping here.. please!

if you want/need a file manager why dont you download the apk of one and put it inside the zip of the rom? that way it will be there when it gets installed.

I've explained why there is no File Manager (in Oxygen and CM7) and how to get get/install it...if this is "dis-helping" then you've big issues...
The point is: don't expect Developers to hold your hand with every everything you want to install on a CUSTOM rom, they've got better things to do.

Are you sure about that ? CM7 have it in official packages.
We are not kids. Watch your words. And i'm talking to rom developers not you anymore. If they have better things to do, they can talk and reject to make this you know?

u got me totally wrong (just as u usually did in other posts as well)..
i dont need a file explorer in this rom (or whatever rom).. i like to keep roms minimal and thats why i choose oxygen..
what im saying is that even if u and i dont need this, it doesnt mean those who want it childish..
and if the developers think this request is not to be entertained, its their decision..
what on earth gives u the authority to judge other's requests, and make comments such as "childish"?
this is what im against..

AndroidRevolution HD for note 2 1.1 DL

if anybody has a copy of the old AndroidRevolution HD 1.1 for Samsung Galaxy note 2 , i would really appericate it. I've been pulling my hair out trying to get ver 3.0 to work, but with no success. I assumed it would be as easy as 1.1 , but i was wong. One of my mistake was not making a backup after the 1.1 installation. So i'm stuck with an old image that atleast has CWM. So if anybody has this.. Thank you in advance!

thats what my repository is for
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1926506
hope it helps bro

This is great,thank you! but the links for the 1.0,1.1, and 2.0 are dead. I really appreciate the effort though. Hoping someone out there has 1.1

then mike must have taken them off...

I have 2.0 and I can Share it via dropbox, but would it help ya?

I can give it a try :fingers-crossed: , but if anything i'll hold on to it for a few unless i can't get 1.1

Revolution HD 19.0
Hi all,
First post ! I'm not totally new on this forum, I've been consulting them since my very first Android and Smart phone about 3 years ago when I bought the HTC Desire. I did create account back then in order to communicate with you guys, but I never got the privileges for posting so... I just kept reading.
New account made just now because I wanted to share my experience and maybe post a couple of questions (even tips, who knows) - and it does work now, which is nice ! So... Hello !!
I was an HTC protagonist and hated Samsung for their phones made of Taiwanese plastic and their Apple-like designs and commercial strategies... until my employer introduced a new Android application and provided us with new Samsung Galaxy Note 2 devices. Well - let's just say I was amazed on one hand by the speed and capabilities of my new device and disappointed on the other hand by my beloved HTC One X. It's just that - everything works better ! The only annoying bit was the keyboard, which is far less practical than the one on Sense... but that was easily set right with the installation of AI Keyboard and its Gingerbread theme.
So - my phone had just completed its very first charge after I unpacked it when I decided to root it immediately, install CMW6 recovery and flash it with Revolution HD 19.0 - which worked like a charm !
I'm very happy with this ROM ! My battery lasts clearly longer than that of my colleague's stock devices (about 48h with normal use - including a bit of gaming during number 2's, use of Wifi most of the time and Bluetooth in the car). The response is slightly faster too - for instance that app we use for work works just a little bit faster on mine. Same thing for Youtube, Facebook, Despicable Me (cool game :cyclops: ) and so on...
During the flashing it suggests the installation of some apps - well a few of them weren't installed after flashing although I did select them (I remember Maps was not installed for instance... unfortunately I don't remember what else I had to install manually). That means I'm not entirely sure all the tweaks suggested during the flashing were indeed enabled. I couldn't find any Revolution HD specific section in the settings (like you'd have on a Cyanogen ROM) - and couldn't find any app either to test and play with those tweaks. So can someone tell me if there's a way to find/modify those specific options/tweaks ?
What I also can tell is that one of my colleagues, who received the Note 2 the same day as I did, followed me with the rooting and flashing with his device... He seems to have been less lucky than me - he tells me every once in a while, when waking up the phone, he has no reaction when trying to unlock it (he just uses the screen swipe). He has to put it back to sleep and wake it up again before he can unlock it... Is this something that happens to anyone ?
So there you go - my experience is nearly flawless ! I love this ROM and will continue using it !
By the way : does anyone know how updates work with this ROM ? Do I have to backup my apps and data whenever a new Revolution HD ROM comes out for my phone and restore that backup after upgrade ? Or is there some kind of OTA-like update available ?

Well it was the first thread when searching for Revolution HD on this particular device - for one. And I wasn't allowed replying on the thread from the developer about Revolution HD 19.0.

[FIX] Another WiFi Fix

Hello
Little history: I bought my phone yesterday, and i'm shocked with de poor wifi. So I back to the store do change the device, but th saleswoman said I can't change it, because of the contract that I've signed with Claro (Claro is one of the mobile operator in Brazil, and I bought this device through a fidelity plan). So I decide to fix or brick this **** and buy another. Fortunately, I think I was able to fix it and my pocket thanks it.
First of all, let's clarify somethings:
1 - I don't know a **** about developing, so don't blame me with don't work. I'm sharing this solution (that worked for me) because I'm extremely grateful to XDA since of my first day in Android. And to fix this **** that Sony makes (haha!)
2 - As if I say, it's worked for me; My Wifi is detecting more networks now and don't disconnect them. Range is better to.
3 - If I can, I'll help, but I don't know a **** about developing (again!), and I hope that the real developers will come here do help who needs.
4 - I'm in 12.0.A.2.254 firmware (rooted) (BL Locked - I'll unlock it later to teste custom roms; just waiting a feel days because of factory issues)
Ok, let's go
I did it:
1 - root following this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2405933
2 - I downloaded that Rom for Xperia L (I think that is the same wifi devices on both phones) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2419042
3 - extract the file 01_____C_n_T_JB_4.1.2_15.0.A.2.17_V1.zip\system\etc\firmware\wlan\prima\WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini and put in somewhere of easy acess
4 - copy to your phone through root explorer
5 - Reboots
AGAIN: I don't know how to developing; I don't know if it will blow my phone or whatever; I just works here.
Thanks to serajr, for his amazing rom for Xperia L (I had one, but a mother****er stole it. It's a great phone. Better camera than Xperia SP)
thanks to DooMLoRD, for allowing us to root this great device
and thanks to you, that you understand my bad english
***If it posted in wrong section, please move it***
***Sorry if I forget someone in credits, just thanks to all of developers involved in XDA***

EDIT: Forget do upload the files. Idiot.

My Wi-Fi issues had been resolved after the 2.254 firmware update, anyhow's great work, maybe this help people who suffer from poor wifi. ))

Going to give it a try, thanks
Edit: Seems to work!
Please stop using **** in every sentence you write down, it does not make any sense and is not of any use.

works perfectly on C5302_12.0.A.1.284. Thanks for this fix.

Well ok, you convinced me. I will try it out as well later tonight and will post results
At the moment my Galaxy Note II gets 2 bars at 10m distance with 2 walls.
While Xperia SP gets only 1 (or no bars at all) at distance of just 5m and one wall.

Where?
Where exactly should I put this .ini file?
Thank you

Frankly, I don't see any difference. I have the same signal power and the same problems with connection drops as I had before.

Well, in order to fix this problem, I searched the web a lot. I found many fix for it, but none of them works. I found a topic that says to overwrite this files and a lot of peoples saying that works, but not for me. So I tried this way and works.
I think it don't work for all devices, Like the lastest update solved the problem of wifi for a some peoples and not for other. Maybe something related to the region and the model of phone (5302/5303/5306/mh35)?

Thanks for reading this, mathm2013.
P.S: if there is already an off-topic thread, tell me please.

Moto G hardware buttons
Well I've found that many, including myself, have found that the power and volume buttons seem somewhat loose and have wiggle room. I don't know but it seemed kind of annoying to me lol. So what I did was remove the back plate and place a strip of clear tape along the buttons and that seemed to do the trick!

This actually sounds like a good idea, might use some to try and stop the back creaking as well.
Do you have another camera that can take a photo to show exactly what you did?

My back is creaking too, but only on up-right part - where the buttons are placed! Also, the volume but especially the power button is a bit loosy, but not that important!

I just couldn`t believe how bad is Moto G`s back. I think it is horrible to open, and i am always afraid of breaking it.

hello. with all the recent talk of the 100 dora 8gb Moto G. im considering one to replace my X2, as my mp3 and video player. i just want to know how much memory is actually able to be used. thanks for answering!
edit: according to the Guide its about 6gb. give or take.. would still like to more more accurately

Yep. I've gotten so tired of hunting down smartphones with decent audio output (line out) and storage options that I opted to just get an iBasso DX50 and use this coming Moto G to stream videos and play a few games.

Well, I actually prefer this kind of back since it's well attached. Some 'premium' phones don't, and when they fall they open and spread into floor. Lol at that...

Can't find backup
Hi, i want to install Xposed and GravityBox to my 4.2.2 rooted Moto G...
I read on both threads that they recomend to make Nandroid backup before installing Xposed.. So i rebooted into Fastboot, then selected Recovery, backup and restore, and it shows the following options:
- backup to /sdcard
- restore from /sdcard
- delete from /sdcard
- advance restore from /sdcard
- free unused backup data
- chooser default backup format
++go back++
Since Moto G doesn't have a sd-card, which option should i select ? I try with "backup to /sdcard", it took about 3 ~ 4 minutes to finish, then i rebooted...
I wanted to make sure the backup was done and then to copy backup to my computer but i couldnt find it on my phone..
Just find this on XT1032\Internal storage\clockworkmod:
.last_install_path
.recovery_version
Sorry for my english, i'm doing my best x) Hope you can help me..
EDIT
Forget it, i found backup stored in '/mnt/shell/emulated/clockworkmod/backup', how can i backup this to my computer?

Something I can really appreciate about this phone... It doesn't heat up during heavy use like almost every other phone I've owned:thumbup: I've been browsing the internet, tapatalk, reddit & Facebook for the past hour and she's cool as a cucumber

Did't know were to post the request. Can somebody with rooted moto g search for file called "others.xml". It should be somewhere in "system/csc/" folder or something like that. If you find it can you open the file and copy it's content.

No problem will happen with Xposed. I installed it fine.

There is no System/csc folder, atleastt for me. I have KitKat rom installed.

i want to learn
hey guys, my request is not simple. i like the moto g alot, i had alot of android phones, but never tried mrore than root/unlocking bootloader/s-off when it comes to htcs, custom recoveries and alot of roms. I think it's time to move on and learn more. i would love to learn how to port miui to our dev the correct way, and i would like a tutuorial .. well not tutorial, alot of reading materials i guess about android, how it works, and how would one go about porting. i know you need a base, like cm10/11 which is not the case for moto g .. yet .. so what baserom should i use and what would be the first steps to porting miui to moto g ? hope someone replies and doesnt laugh at my noobness

I think it isn't possible because the latest miui is android 4.2 I guess, and moto g has only 4.3+
I think we need to wait until there will be kitkat miui

I admire your ambition sadly we need our source code before we can start building anything. As for porting, we would need to port from a device with similar software and hardware. Miui is just about one of the hardest things to get ported. It is by far one of the farthest from AOSP of all of the custom ROMs AFAIK.
