My way of getting a almost perfect Cyanogen Mod 6 on X10

Ok here it goes. What im trying to do here is share my experience and how i managed to get a almost fully working Cyanogen Mod rom on my x10, due to the fact that there was some mis understandings between the devs and development has some how decreased. It goes to show that working together could bring wonders to the X10. This setup is rock solid! Not one reboot in 3 days test, sd card works(sometimes you have to unmount in settings to install say angrybirds and others then mount again) but it works, camera works, video camera works(with illusion app on market), wifi fixed with blade wifi fix, smooth as butter, maps work, gps works etc!
Heres what i did!
First with recovery flash Zs beta 3, factory reset,cache wipe, boot. After it is settled flash Zs beta 3 hot fix 1 with recovery,reboot, flash Zs gapps zip 19xx., reeboot. When it boots set up everything, contacts, facebook, twitter, everything! All your accounts! When done boot into recovery and do a backup of the rom. Then with recovery flash Trips Cyanogen Rom V1, wipe data, cache and davlik cache, and reboot. When cyanogen is settled in, go to recovery and flash Zs gapps zip V1, reboot. Go to recovery again and flash Zs beta 3 hotfix 1 on Cyanogen, reboot. Go to recovery and on back up and restore,advanced and restore only data from Zs rom you made a backup of before, reboot. You may have to flash gapps zip again if market is missing, so do it, if not go to next step. Go into market and download illusion video cam app, and blade wifi fix. You should now have video recording with illusion app and wifi should be fixed! Hope this help some people to get an excellent rom on their device as this my daily driver with no issues so far and everything that should work does. I just hope the devs can come together as i know theyre capable of making wonders for our devices! Thanks to T, Z, J and all others in xda for making my device awesome! Thanks!

Thanks for the info man!
Why don't you share a backup of that rom?
Thanks!

hm, ok, but mixing the 2 roms is way easier from the first method mentioned, and takes a lot less time, but i like the innovative thinking

I made my cyanogen rom too, and my works too. But i merged trip cyanogen 1.2 with zdzihu freex10 beta 4 and it worked like a charm. Even sdcard so no need for unmounting for installing angry birds. If someone need the zip tell me how i can share it. But u need the latest baseband .54 to use it.
Sorry for my English
And sorry that i used your thread.

It would be great!

i will open a own thread for sharing the files when i finished the upload on mediafire.
greetings neo

The devs seem to be using mediafire so upload it there it should be fairly simple since you were able to find a roundabout way of merging them. Then link the dl site here. Might wanna check if its ok with the people you got it from though. Just respect ya know?

With the development of the video camera, have you tried any of the QR scanners?
For example I use Barcode Scanner pretty often, is it the software of Barcode Scanner using the android drivers making it not work, or is there a way to get the barcode scanner running similarly to the 3rd party video camera app.
Thanks

A few questions about Custom rom's.

I know this is the wrong section but I got some kind of feeling that there are more people looking in this section.
I have read some guides in the Development section (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=857537'
But I got some questions about rooting/S-off.
Why is rooting/S-off necessarily, why can't I just put the rom on my SD and go right into recovery mode and boot it up from there?
Also the program visionary plus, I hate that thing so much.... At this step:
Open Visionary and tap temproot, then attempt permroot now. Your device will reboot.
How the hell do I open it? I use Astro File manager or something to go to the file but I can't install the program on my mobile/SD card >.<
Also what do I need to do more besides Wiping my phone? In this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11557769
It says to flash a Radio is this a must? Or is the S-off/Root enough.
Thanks already

No, the DHD has a protected system which precludes overwriting the system partition so without S-OFF you can not make any permanent changes.

Don't use it then the instructions here, achieve root without the use of visionary.

No, but using a newer radio may improve battery life and wifi/Gps reception etc.

No worries!

When I had the wrong Radio my battery drain was 15% an hour and this was with a sense Rom. imo S-OFF is a must.

i used this and it worked great.

Actually all of the roms now are running Gingerbread, and sense roms are on sense2.1 (With some sense3.0 elements).

My bad, when I was choosing which rom to load yesterday, everything i read said AR was still 2.2. Must have been old threads.

Thanks guys I now know enough

just for the record, nobody can help you based on this information. you need to quote the error message.

Haven't tried CM7 but if you haven't already flashed a rom I'd give a big thumbsup for Leedroids GB rom, very quick, stable and flashed like a dream

+1 for this. definitely give LeeDroid a go if you can. admittedly, it's the only custom one i've used to date (and for less than 24 hours at that), but i can't rate it high enough compared to the branded rom i got in the first place. amazing!

There is no error message. I just can't find a 'exe' or AKP file which will install the program on my SD/Mobile.
@ Above,
No, I haven't flashed a ROM yet since I heard there are some problems with ClockWorkmod of ROM Manager so I am going to wait for a few days xD

sorry to hear that. it's news to me, though. i downloaded it (CWM), and used it last night in the process of flashing the rom, no issues. but i understand the whole 'there may be issues, so i think i'll wait - don't want to brick my phone' line of thought. good luck when you get there. i'm sure you'll be fine if you follow the various guides posted on here. they worked an absolute treat for me (and i'm the definition of n00b).

So basically I'm screwed? Since I need to downgrade to root, and to backup you need to have root >.< but when you downgrade you lose everything xD
I will try it tonight ._.

If you want to back up the new GB OTA ROM then yes but if you just want to back up your apps then No, you don't need root.
Titanium works with root but doesn't need it. Also, if you ticked to let Google keep a backup then your apps will be re-downloaded when you next perform a wipe.

Using Windoze is great....
One word for you: Linux.
At the risk of high jacking this thread, have you installed HTC Sync? Can you connect to HTC Sync? If not, try another USB port (if using front port use back ports or vice-versa). If none work uninstall HTC Sync and reinstall it after rebooting PC.
If that works when you are in adb (making sure USB Debugging is on) try
Code:
adb devices
Do you get a result?

[Q] Camera Application

Hey ladies and gents,
Anyone know if I can change the camera app in the build im using in my sig below? This is the best ROM I've tested over the past year or so and dozens of ROMs. This camera is the worst though. I cant tap to autofocus and it takes like 5 seconds to take a pic.
Thanks in advance.

I am using the same ROM you have. Found the apk file in the ROM thread where several people had good experience using the Miui CM7 camera. I am currently using it without any issues. Here is the link to the post from another user of Pongster's ROM with the apk link:

You need to use a File Explorer app to navigate to the camera.apk that you load and install it from there rather than use it to overwrite the old camera.apk that was there. I think that is what you did? You can have both .apks there at the same time. Shouldn't conflict.

It just says application not installed. I tried Root Explorer and another one built into the ROM.
I also tried wiping Dalvik after moving the APK unsuccessfully.
Why aren't I able to run it as you say?

Not sure why it is difficult to install. You can try off the Market, Camera360, another app that worked well for me. I just tested it again on my phone and it works. I used to use it when I was on Froyo and on Pongster's build until the suggestion from the poster on the link I sent you. I was trying to find the CWR zip file for the same Miui Camera but I can't seem to find it on the Pongster thread. If I find it, I will send you the link. In the meantime, try Camera360. It may be all you need.

Thought the information was in the Pongster thread but actually on its own thread. Here is the link to the link adding the Miui camera onto a CM7 build for HD2:

What would be the order of the operations?
1. move APK, overwriting old APK
2. Power off and boot into CWM
3. Wipe Dalvik
4. Reboot?
If his is correct, I am almost posive this is one of the things I tried.... I tried a lot.

[Q] problem loading widgets on reboot

hello again
when i (re)boot my phone all previous created widgets disappear (with sslauncher) or show a loading error message (with go launcher)..
is there a way to resolve this problem?

Make sure whichever launcher you are using is not on the SD card. I had the same problem with go launcher as soon as I moved it to my SD. I moved it back to phone and haven't had the problem since.

This is a bug of official 2.3 roms(I had it in all). Fortunately it' s not happen to everyone. Unfrortunatley we don't know what it triger it, and huawei never tried to find a solution(I've reported them from first 2.3 beta). I've found a way to solve it(in fact just to improve the situation, because it' s keep coming from time to time and needed to do it again). Basically is a command, which reinstall all apps, here is the link:

It' s strange though because I had this problem with all 2.3 official roms(and I have try all of them), but never on a custom rom, and for sure not on aurora & elora ICS which I've used for a long time.

Maybe thats because custom roms don't use stock launcher?

I have upload a "little" record of this ROM running on my u8800. I think this rom has maked to u8800pro, but runs on u8800. I tell this because in Setting section, in "CyanogenMod version", is written "10-20121015-UNNOFICIAL-u8800pro", i'm not sure... :\
