This is the 1st ROM I developed/cooked
It is based on official B572G Release so it's Gingerbread 2.3.5
The ROM follows a K.I.S.S philosophy trying to have almost no extra apps installed so you can build your system around your needs
Let's see what changed:
Changes:
1) Changed Default Launcher to Zeam
2) Removed a lot of apps from Huawei and left only the essential ones(install everything else you need from PlayStore or by installing apk files from other roms)
3) Changed Default CPU Governor to SmartAssV2
4) updated hosts file(no more ads) and gps.conf (for europe usage)
5) Added Volume Rocker Wake
6) Unlocked FPS & Root Permissions(of course )
7) Removed some audio files from the media folder to save space
8) Added init.d & build.prop tweaks(some of them may not work,but they don't have any side effect in the system so I left them there on purpose)
9) Changed Camera & Settings Icon to look like ICS (thanks to Pikachukaki for his great guide in replacing .png files in apk files)
10) Patched libsqlite.so
11) HDR function enabled on camera(well this actually is included in number 8 cuz it's a build.prop tweak )
12) Fast Boot Option is removed (again a build.prop tweak)
I have also made some little tricks here and there in the cust.img so make sure before flashing the ROM that you have a working backup and/or a backup of the cust.img
I edited the cust.img and removed all extra apps and module files there,and also changed the default language to english because without this the ROM would boot the 1st time in chinese
If you don't want to flash my cust.img that is in the .zip file simpy delete it from there
If you flashed and you want your old cust.img back simply boot into pink screen and replace it with you cust.img backup
There is no side effect from the cust.img change except that you will lose swype,huawei ime(I prefer the basic android keyboard anyways) and also the Totem Weather Widget
Installation:
Do the following in any order
-------------------------------------------------
Wipe data/factory reset
Advanced->Wipe Dalvik Cache
Mounts & Storage-> Format system
--------------------------------------------------
Now flash the .zip file
Reboot
Enjoy!
Everything is working in this ROM (because it's based on official B572) except TV-OUT of course
Anyway.Tell me what you think of my 1st work on android.
Happy Flashing

Nice ROM. Keep It Up. Post Some Screenshots If You Can.
Thanks.
Screenshoots added!
Note that the screenshoot app and es file explorer that you see in the 2nd image aren't present when you first install the ROM.You have to install them from play store
That's great. thanks for share.
Nice work..you manage to edit the cust.img??nice!!!i was bored to install linux!!
Modding the cust.img wasn't hard actually.
Btw pikachukaki,again thanks a lot for helping with my first updater-script issues!

hmmm. That is a personal opinion. I like cm7 more due to the power widget,screen on/off animation etc
But if someone wants an official huawei gingerbread ROM(official for U8800+, not a port from honor e.g kalo) then this should be a good choice.

Can you fix your Release? (CyanogenMod 7.2 (By Moihack)
And there are no such things:
1. GoogleContactsSyncAdapter
2. GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter
3. Gmail
To put it all in, as you should be?
And post it back here!
Please!
And if you can try to put this App inside if you can of course!!! Sound recorder from MIUI...looks like old tape
Thanks in advance!

I tried RE-ODEX on Kyrillos 9.6, it does now work.Then I tried it with G3MOD OC kernel 2.5
Then reodexing started, probably done, BUT I get boot loop.Same problem I get When I am trying put CWM or 5 lockscreen to odexed stock JPU.
Any idea what exactly to do UNDER WINDOWS ONLY to have odexed JPU with 5/9 lockscreen mod + CWM with extended power menu ?
I have no problem do that upto JPS, but because of offline only GPS , I need JPU.
I do NOT wanna have deodexed /unstable/restarts during call/ slow/ data full etc ... Except CM7 I was faced one or all of those problems on ALL odexed ROMs
thanks for your tips
Radek
- Flash stock deodex JPU
- Flash any custom kernel (if G3mod or other that includes CWM, then skip the third step)
- Install Mumbozver's CWM through ADB (requires a kernel that has ADB root) (Fugumod kernel is highly recommended)
- Install 9 lockmod + EPM through update.zip (download one of my theme, it also includes all the .jars for icon bug fix)
- Save 30+ mb for the /system (remove all the samsung garbage)
- Reodex! It doesn't matter if you're using windows or not! Just download "reodex_win" (I'm using windows myself). Also skip the second step of that guide!
- Done!
If you're still getting error while re-odexing, then I think you can ask "TearsDontFall" for more detail.

I did it exactly on Kyrillos 9.6 and crashed on boot loop after phone restart.I had 30+ MB on system free.There were none error messages while reodexing.I got same result like I was applying mods directly to odexed JPU
I think I have to wait to be usable CM7, because no developers are using stock odexed JPU :cyclops:

Wait, which one do you want? Kyrillos' rom 9.6 or stock XXJPU? 0.o and why don't u try it on JPS first? If you still have errors while reodexing, then it means that you did something wrong! oh and also, did you add the "META-INF" folder to the framework's .jars??

I want stock odexed JPU primary because it is fast + stable.No necessary tweaks.
Kyrillos ROM is tweaked so much what makes this ROM useless and unstable because of so many contraproductive unwanted tweaks.I hate his A2SD crap script so I need LINK2SD what 100% works for me on every stock ROM or CM7 .I simply do not wanna use hybrid data2sd, because I dont beleieve it and I am affraid of repartition 32 GB sdcard.It will take many hours of backup ... Now I remeber I was not able run LINK2SD on kyrillos 9.6 ROM.But as I wanna have primary CWM+9 lockscreen mod+Extended power menu, I was thinking about reodex Kyrillos 9.6 as this ROM already included all I need and delete or revert his tweaks.So I just wanna have it easier.Main problem of kyrillos ROM 9.6 is low space for data because of deodex.I remember I installed angry birds and cant install anything else :laugh:
I do not wanna try it on JPS, I already did this succesfully on stock odexed JPF-JPS without any deodexing and reodexing.I do not wanna JPS because GPS still sucks at this ROM and I am already able install CWM+5lockscreen mod + Extended power menu, even ROM JPS is odexed.I have all files I need ( I have odexed 5 lockscreen mod version too), but for unknown reason it works upto JPS only.When applied to JPU, I get always boot loop or phone hangs at boot.Even same steps were applied, enough space on system or correct permission to app/framework folders.
Now I am not sure If I added "META-INF" folder to framework or not.If it was included at files provided by you, then I added.If it was included at original folder with frameworks dedicated upto JPS, then I added this directory ...
If folder with frameworks dedicated upto JPS does not had "META-INF"folder
then I did not applied it on JPU, but I dont think this is the case, because if it is needed for JPU, then it was included for JPS too

Then that's the problem. You can't reodex when the frameworks have no "META-INF" folder in it. And yea, I didn't include the "META-INF" folder in my theme, and even IF I did, you should always double-check
Retry everything all over again. This time, just reodex a STOCK DEODEXED JPU without any mods, and see whether it'll work or not! "TearsDontFall" already reodex Kyrillos' ROM (JPU) successfully (check his signature), so it's definitely not the problem with stock JPU. You might have just did something wrong!

Ok, now I am at home so I checked what I used :
Your files :
Settings.apk had cert.rsa + cert.sf + manifest.mf at META-INF folder
Android.policy.jar - only manifest.mf at META-INF folder
Framework.jar - only manifest.mf at META-INF folder
Framework-res.apk - had cert.rsa + cert.sf + manifest.mf at META-INF folder
but Settings.apk and Framework-res.jar has different content file and size at META-INF folder
"my" 5 lockscreen mod had META-INF at framework-res.APK folder included too, with same size like yours had
So problem is somewhere else , but where ?
I will backup my phone and try re-odex deodexed jpu like You reccomended
I will again free 30 MBs at system folder + root + change permission at data/system to write and try it again from g3mod 2.5 CWM
I am sure it was the only way how to make re-odex command file ran.

OK, on G3MOD 2.5 your update does not work anymore - it wrotes :
Amend scripting was deprecated by Google in Android 1.5.It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to CWM 3.0 gingerbread based recovery.Please switch to Edify scripting (updater-script and update-binary) to create working update zip packages.Installation aborted
so I will try skip 9 lock screen mod what was the main mod I need

replace updater script & update binary file with the same files from some newer update.zip...e.g. kyrillos rom v10.4 hotfix
EDIT: LOL... or better...find aaruns 9 lm ics theme for cwm3+...i made it for newer recovery...to be installable on g3mod 2.5...
You should try it on G3mod Rebirth or Astrum kernel. And yea, you can use ICS theme by Aarun, BUT you'll need to add those .jar frameworks, because in ICS theme update.zip, it doesn't include those framework files. After that, everything will be just fine :good:

Now I followed manual http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402233 like JASON-X recommended to me
0) at manual there could be info specially for windows user to be run as first or add to cmd line as first :
adb shell "mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl9 /system"
1) Yes, main problem was missing Meta-Inf at Kyrillos 9.6 JPU :
a) android.policy.jar b) framework.jar c) services.jar
2) I dont know if it was needed or not, but after I deleted few apps to be min 30 MB free on system partition, I rather changed thru RootExplorer attributes system/app+framework+lib to be :
Owner+Group+Others marked READ+WRITE+EXECUTE
3) most important are at 1) I had to use WINRAR to put Meta-Inf and select no compression.When I used FAR MANAGER instead of it, it re-odexed, booted,but after pin code entered phone did not show laucher and hanged.I did this thru CWM from G3mod kernel 2.5
So I try rather G3MOD kernel what comes with Kyrillos 9.6 non OC and DID NOT RAN REODEX from CWM, but I did it when my phone was booted normally and connected via android USB as normally.So no CWM ...
4) I ran "env".cmd , then I ran "odex".cmd as admin.
all works, system free space changed from cca 30 to 7 MB.Now I have ODEXED Kyrillos 9.6 JPU and it all looks like it is working.I deleted crappy scripts from etc/init.d and I am finally testing LINK2SD
I have 126 MB free at data ...
I hope it all will works after I will flash G3MOD KERNEL 2.5 OC ...

126 mb free at data? you got to be kidding me.....I got 183 mb after reodex re-check if it's really reodexed or not and also, META-INF folder is also one of the requirements for reodex.

I dont know if it is odexed or deodexed.How can I test it ?
I checked system/app folder and ALL app got odex file now , what is bad, because at samsung stock odexed jpu, only some of them had odex file too.
Another problem is Kyrillos had some weird Swype version and he deleted email.apk+email.odex too, where there are no czech language available for swype, even all 3 "CS" files are located at system/T9B
So I tried overwrite Kyrillos swype by newer from Samsung and even I overwrite odex file too, there are no more Swype keyboard anymore.Even after full reset.
Same "problem" like at any other app what has odex.
I used Rootexplorer because I dont any other step for CWM 5.x
Is there any step how to update odexed apps to be usable (keyboard for example) and available at apps (like FM RADIO or E-mail app) ?

how about the framework folder? And is there any errors while reodexing? And also, always remember to finish adding/modding/replacing/updating all apps/frameworks before reodexing, and also remember to make a backup of the rom in the "deodexed" mode otherwise you'll have to redo all those steps again.
For Swype, just follow what rkoby said

Thanks.
Of course I did not
I copied swype.apk and swype.odex only
Now I am trying to mod deodexed JPU with 9 lockscreenmod ,
but I stucked on update.zip , because of CWM5.x
I tried use Kyrillos 10.5 Update.zip, but I was not sure what can be deleted from zip and what files have to stay to be JPU updatable with G3MOD kernel 2.5 :-o
many thanks anyway for swype, maybe i will try at deodexed Kyrillos 9.0 JPU
Update :
oh not, there were some ****in "formating system" at 10.5 update.zip, so I had to reflash again
does anyone have some update.zip for JPU to be flashable thru CWM 5.0.28
I used g3mod kernel 1.7, but I get boot loop after applied 9lock screnn mod.
I see background from android desktop, but immediatelly reboot and over and over again ...

I've cleaned out as much Samsung/Verizon/Google trash as I can, applied some tweaks to build.prop, changed some default apps to (IMHO) better replacements, and anything that is left (functions correctly) has been moved to /data/app so they can be Uninstalled fully (not just Turned Off). Just a few quick questions:
1) How can I "bake-in" app data? I have replaced the normal, crap launcher with Holo Launcher and cannot seem to get correct permissions when the ROM is installed thru SS. I believe the issue is permissions for /data/data/ get screwed up or not set correctly. I have looked and looked and tried to determine the correct permissions, but still no joy. I've tried to fix /data/data permissions in the updater-script, but it seems like each subfolder/file has different permissions making me think I'll have to go thru them one-by-one.
I have a work-around in place using a OneTimeInit script that does work, but it seems like that's not really the best approach?
2) Kind of ties into question number 1, I patched the framework-res.apk in to allow WiFiHotspot, but without being able to install the system settings data properly, there is not a "Quick Shortcut". Again, I've resolved the problem using the OneTimeInit to update Sqlite DBs after the system is up.
3) How do I de-odex the stock ROM? Using Android Kitchen doesn't seem to do it right. It works mostly but I still seem to get various FCs. I tend to believe that some things just cannot (should not) be De-Odex'd?
I've also discontinued Zip-Aligning because it sometimes produces errors on my ROM. Is it not advised to use Android Kitchen to do these tasks or is there some trick to getting it to work just right?
Bonus Question) I was going to share my ROM on XDA but it says I'm not allowed to post in Development. I assume because of my low post count. Any way I can get an over-ride or should I just make a few more posts and then do it?
Thanks again guys!
I appreciate all the help as always!

1: All I had to do was place apk in /system/app or /system/priv-app and thats it. Make sure when you add your apks you dont unzip the archive. basically use kitchen and build your base rom then simply open the archive and make your edits. I also used the updater script from beans base build and only edited the ui print.. Messing with the updater script i wouldnt recommend as it could be causing some of your issues.
2: If using beans base theres no reason for you to edit anything as the hotspot is already baked in.. you must have borked it.. If you are not using beans base then maybe you should copy his files for the native hotspot as its already done properly. I wouldnt mess with framework or settings apks unless you know what your doing. Id work on gettin the fcs n other issues sorted first as you might b doin too much too fast.. work on learning how to make your apks work first before making edits to framework n settings apks.
3: The kitchen is best to deodex and zipalign.. also these two things should not cause fcs or errors if done properly. zipalign should help more than anything.. i just like workin with deodex bcuz its easier and only one set of files instead of .apk and .odex for just bout everything..
Again, if you are not using beans bases id recommend to do so.. his bases are already deodexed have hotspot zipaligned read/write to ext sd etc.. so you wouldnt have to do all from scratch and have so many issues..

Thank you for the response!
It seems perhaps I didn't quite make clear what I've done versus what I'm trying to accomplish.
Firstly, I wouldn't go so far as to say I'm "having so many issues". Everything in my ROM is in perfectly fine working order. I just have these few quirks that I would like to address both so I can learn, and to make this and future projects better.
While I appreciate the recommendation to use bean's base, I have taken a look at his and there seems to be nothing in his which copies data into /data/data/com.whatever.package (or at least there's nothing in his zip in the /data/data folder -- not sure if his ROM has the toggle activated?)
I have the Apps working correctly in my ROM -- they just go in /data/apps, /system/app or /system/priv-app, respectively.
What I need, is to get /data/data/com.whatever.package/ copied With Correct Permissions when the ROM is installed; I do not want a second zip to update things after install, especially for a toggle and a couple shortcuts, seems silly.
For instance, when you boot your phone up with the default [stock] samsung launcher, it has a list of default apps and widgets on the first screen you see such as phone, messages, a clock widget, etc, etc. Since I've replaced the stock launcher with Holo Launcher HD and some other default apps have also been replaced, there's very few shortcuts on the main launcher screen.
** Holo Launcher does have a list of default apps it adds to your main page, but many of those have been removed in my rom.
The solution I've come up with basically waits for the system to boot up to the point that Holo Launcher actually creates the default (mostly blank) /data/data/com.mobint.hololauncher.hd/databases/launcher.db and then my script uses sqlite3 to update the DBs with a list of different shortcuts -- ones to apps that actually exist.
The Hotspot Toggle is the same way as above.. Hotspot works fine in my rom if you go through settings!
I just cannot add the notification panel pull-down toggle to /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/database/settings.db until after the system boots up at least ONE time, and then update the DB to include WiFiHotspot in notification_panel_active_app_list and notification_panel_active_app_list_for_reset
As for the zipalign and deodexing, I will have to try those again now that I have a fairly stable rom.
****EDIT****
I think I figured it out. I can just use busybox to kill the systemui after I update the databases during the first boot. I also figured out how I can add the SetupWizard without it locking up on activation.
Thanks anyways, guys.
Look for my rom, coming soon!
