[Q] Could it be? Could this device see L in the future? - Bravo General

Recently I was browsing Quarx2k's online archive where he puts all of his ROMs and stuff ( quarx2k.ru ), and I saw a folder labeled "Android_L", in it an Alpha Release folder. Well, actually, it's a BUNCH of Alpha Release folders. When you click on one, it just shows another identical folder within (It is actually not infinite, last time I checked it went about 20-30 deep and after that it just stopped). Since CM11 for Defy and Bravo is still in Quarx2k's active nightlies folder, could it be possible that this "Android L Alpha Build" of his will be for the Bravo? An even better question being, would the Bravo hardware even be capable of RUNNING Android L in the first place?

UPDATE: QUARX has long since removed the Bravo from his list of supported devices on his website. Looks like this is a no-go.

Full Featured Developer Script for ROMs - Need ideas for a name

I am currently work on a program/script to manage ROMs, and I will be releasing it initially for the Kindle Fire for beta testing. This will be a full featured program with the following :
- Compile ROMs from source
- Extract & zip ROMs
- Decompile/Compile APK and JAR files in the ROM (selective or the whole ROM at once)
- Unpack / repack kernel
- ROMs and devices each will have their own config file to store information specific to each, such as comments and status
- Much more planned, such as the ability to browse and edit files, search and compare, etc
The big advantage to this, and what prompted me to write this in the first place, is the ability to have all of the necessary tools in one place and better keep track of your ROM projects. As I was working on modifying or porting ROMs, a big headache was having to go to so many places to do different things to a ROM, which leaves files scattered all over your hard drive.
This will help keep everything more organized and the goal is to cut out manually having to do so much when it comes to basic tasks, and eventually even the more advanced tasks involved.
The initial release will be for Linux, but a Windows version will follow (minus the Linux specific features such as compile from source).
I have made some great progress on this already, and am close to a beta release.
So, what I need help on is a name for this. Here is what I have so far as choices, I welcome suggestions. Those that reply with suggestions for a name will be the first to receive beta versions to try out
- DEVROID
- [ARM] Android Rom Master
That is all I have so far, so please throw some good options my way.
How about - Kindle Fire Rom Manager?

This was originally just for the KF but most of this stuff is generic enough to work on other devices, so I will be adding functionality for multiple devices. So the name shouldn't be specific to the KF. I'm just offering it for the KF first.
When it was going to be KF specific I had "Kindle Inferno" in mind....
Now that would be a good name for a ROM !

Android 4.2

hey guys, so i know just a few posts below me there's a topic about when 4.2 will come to the N7. But what i'm wondering is if anyone has gotten their hands on the 4.2 GAPPS or anything of the sort, such as the new 4.2 keyboard and the 4.2 camera (not that the camera would be much use on an N7). I have the 4.2 GAPPS, keyboard and camera running on my S3, can i just use those same .zip files and flash them on my N7? or does it not just work that way.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
The apps can be flashed on any device running 4.1 or later
Link
Be careful mate. I flashed the 4.2 gapps and once i rebooted i was constantly getting force closes on all the apps that got flashed.
My device was a real mess. I have not tried the separate apps like keyboard etc so i cant comment on them.
Edit...i did not flash the ones that the fellow member linked you to in the post above.
The ones in that link say the for any androud 4.1 device so you should be ok.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Ah, I assumed the OP already had the apps in the link I posted as he said about his S3 and the thread linked was in the S3 forum.
So yeah, make sure you're using the apps from the link and you should be fine as the post says its for any device running 4.1 or over. If you're unsure you could always perform a nandroid backup beforehand in case anything does go wrong.
yeah, that link is where I got the GAPPS from. I guess I didn't see the part about being able to flash it on anything. lol
thanks a bunch

So I installed CM 10.1 on my phone and now it says it can't find any contacts on my SIM card. Is this just an issue with CM 10.1, or did installing it delete the contacts?

Apparently it's an issue with jellybean rather then CM0.1; some fixes might be try inserting your sim card into a spare phone that uses a lower version of android (gingerbread/froyo/ics) or a different os and save the contacts there, and send them over text or bluetooth.
So I found another problem with CM 10.1: I can't use my SD card. It gets recognized under Settings -> Storage, but I can't play music from it, and I can't view files in it from the file browser. Is this a known issue (one that other people are experiencing) with the 9/20 build of CM 10.1 for this phone, and if so, is there a later build that fixes it?
It's not a big deal since all of my music is on an iPod I carry with me (usually), and I don't do anything else on my phone that needs more than a few MBs of space, but it's annoying.

I'm on the 09/20 build and SD card works fine. Perhaps you need to format your sd card so that its compatible with android; I believe it should be formatted to FAT32, and try using Root browser (free from play store) and go to extSdCard and the files should be there given that the sd-card is working. There are more builds after 09/20 but since the original dev has not reuploaded them to goo (or goo has deleted them by accident) we're stuck with 09/20 until I can build a version of cm myself (I'm somewhat close to it).
I have a few of these phones and they are great, I cant believe we don't have more devs on these for a clean unbloated rom. Let us know if you come up with something. :_)
Just a quick update; I'm done exams which means I could start my attempts at porting over CM10.2 again. I had some issues applying a patch needed to enable STE Hardware, so I just manualIly downloaded the files to the correct places for the time being (which should get help me get past the build-error I was seeing before). I'm compiling a build now, and hopefully I don't run into any build errors and can test in on my phone.

There is stock firmware, unless you mean an AOSP version? I don't think any of the U8500 based phones have AOSP built, so porting it over would be difficult. There's also CM10.1 available for the phone with working camera (no video camera), issues with audio at times (which requires a reboot). I'm working on CM10.2, but running into some kernel issues, so I yet have to see to how that goes.

I managed to find an odin flashable rom somewhere that includes su so that's what I'm running in the mean time. I tried both the roms in the o.p.
Pac was pretty close to what I like in a rom but it's abandoned so there's no chance of the bugs getting fixed.
This is such a great little phone and now that metro is giving them away for free I assumed xda would be blowing up with development but I guess not...
I'll be checking this thread everyday and I'll test out any thing you come up with. really looking forward to your rom.
I managed to compile CM10.2 and it did indeed boot. I'm not yet releasing it because camera is missing. But other then that everything seems fine, does require more testing, and I've been working non-stop for a couple of hours now (it's 4am here, lol).
Edit:
Changelog:
V.1.0.0
- initial build of CM10.2
- SmartAss v2 governor (should help with battery life) (unjust already had this there, and I could add in other governors in future)
List of Current Bugs:
- missing camera (have an idea on how to fix it )
- random boot logo appears (i believe this was on pac as well, will look into it)
- torch not working (dependent on camera working as well but since camera isn't working, torch isn't working as well)
- sound issues (like CM10.1 most likely)
I'll make a new thread for this rom, once camera is working, and we could start from there. I've yet to test out calling and bluetooth.
Just a reminder; I'm learning how to dev as I'm going so please don't expect nightlies (slow upload rate + lack of free time + lack of knowledge) and fixes to be posted suddenly.
Excellent. and thanks for not adding another half baked ROM to the list.

Official MIUI V5 for ME860 and MB860

Hello XDA,
(I'm posting this link here because I don't have enough posts to reply to the [ROM] MIUI v5 3.7.19 English thread.)
I was browsing the English MIUI website today and found that the Motorola Atrix 4G was listed as a supported device! :victory:
Official ROM package: http://en.miui.com/download-48.html
Kernel update package: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/s1am14hv1463bse/kcTzU7sneq or do it yourself instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50270128&postcount=35
Basic soft keyboard: http://storage.evozi.com/apk/dl/13/...ard.apk?h=2w9QQkC1civRGTlZnZ_1kw&t=1393030263 (you'll need this, or another soft keyboard APK of your choice, because this ROM does not come with a soft keyboard!)
Google Apps package: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2482592 (search for "gapps core" on that page)
It's meant for the international version (ME860) but I think it should work it works on the US version (MB860) just fine.
Cheers.

Most of it seems to work, camera works, 1080P works on it, not sure about the Flash. Here is the status pages.
There is also an update on the updates page to 4.1.10 but I am not on WiFi. But all seems to work so far for me, I just can't figure out how to get the play store to work.
Also, it looks like it's actually for the MB not the ME.
Just a quick question since I'm a little lost. Miui is actually based on Android like CM right? So wouldn't it have the same bugs as cm 10.1? Like flash not working perfectly and stuff like that?

My Flash seems to not work, unless you auto focus, it won't trigger on it's own.
Edit, Correction, my horrible explanation of this, if Focus is set to auto in settings, it will Flash with Automatic Flash when it needs it. the Flash Seems to be extremely strong though.

hi i never had any random reboots at all it was only the gapps problem
Taking a quick look at the source code of the kernel I noticed that the gpu is overclocked at 600mhz, could that be the cause of the reboots? I haven't got any reboot yet and I'm not a kernel expert so I can't assure that...

Nope, GPU is at 300Mhz.
I see, my bad. Thought it was by looking at tegra2_clocks.c and tegra2_dvfs.c :|
A bit offtopic but what application are you using to see the gpu frequency?

This one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2600452
I tried the 4.1.24 release of this ROM (filename: miui_me860_santajin_4.1.24_2d6ed01966_4.2.zip) and it flashes correctly using ClockworkMod.
However, during first boot (after it optimizes 122 Android apps) it repeatedly shows the MIUI logo and pulses the LED with a red color.
Is this what is known as a "boot loop"?
Red light pulse usually means low battery. Try turning the phone off and connecting the wall charger for a few hours and then wipe and flash again

Thanks! I tried your suggestion and the red LED does not pulse anymore. :good:
But it still gets stuck in the boot loop after "optimizing" 122 Android apps.

Now that MIUI was working, the next thing I needed was Google apps --- particularly the Play Store so I could install more apps.
I tried gapps packages from MIUI v5 ROM for Atrix 4G and epinter's CM 10.1 but they both had problems, such as the Play Store would force close.
Finally, I tried the gapps package from MIUI for Atrix HD (yeah, I know, it's a different phone) and it worked! :victory:

Cyanogenmod 13 for the HTC One M8s (m8ql_ul)

Currently this is a thread for testing CM13 builds, I will update the thread when builds are booting.
Current Status: Not Booting
Download Link (to a folder): Mod edit: GPL
Latest Zip Name: cm-13.0-20151209-UNOFFICIAL-m8qlul
Hi WildfireDEV. Do I understand it correctly that you personally don't have this device(m8s)? I was just curious how are you preparing the builds then? Do you get some support from voidzero?
------
Yes not so good to propose a roms without test before.... Even it's a good idea to work on this roms
Latest update is its not booting yet and we're a bit stumped as to why it isn't. Will continue in the new year, taking a little break for the holidays.
Good to see that cm13 is still being developed! Looking forward to it.
anything new?
I just wanted to let everybody that was wondering what the current status was. Currently I am still unable to get the build to boot past the white HTC screen. I will continue trying but i am not sure how far I will get.
As of now it is unlikely I will be able to get CM13 to you guys anytime soon. It would be helpful in my opinion if HTC releases Marshmallow for the M8s.
I'm confused, I put CM13 on my HTC One M8 and it boots just fine. Only problem I have is with Google Play Services constantly failing.
Yes, dont work.
This the thread for M8s not M8
Hi, where is the source for this ROM? I have this device and am going to try and get it working. Thanks.
Could someone please check in the download folder. In the download folder there should be 2 new .img files. Please download both of them and rename them to boot.img and either replace the boot.img in the latest zip or flash it through fastboot. Test these two images and see if the boot will go further than what it did before. For example to the boot animation.
Any update on this?
