@davidteri91 was able to fix that on AOSP - https://plus.google.com/112116692753844849623/posts/GsD7K8kDpnm - maybe the same issue...

I was able to get recovery using IMG from Omni 5.1, by the new bootloader method, (phone off, hold power and vol down at same time, let go both on vibrate). I can post link later if anyone wants, or just download Omni 5.1 zip.
Update - recovery IMG - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1niPALD2vPeV0Y2WWZjMFJndWs/view?usp=docslist_api

Architecture breakdown - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox_OS/Platform/Architecture
Interesting... File system is totally different. Doesn't seem to be much out there yet for tweaking/modding. I couldn't get 3rd party apps to do much of anything. Uses OEM kernel, and runs apps and ui using CSS HTML and JavaScript. Most of it is over my head, but it's obviously different. Look forward to more.

Hello,
i know this is a developers forum and i am the exact opposit of a developer, i am a total noob, so sorry this is a noob question, because it is the only place where i found aswers about Xperia Z1 compact and Firefox OS.
My question is :
Is there any chance i can use firefox OS on my Xperia Z1 as my daily OS ? With everything i basicaly need, like phone call ,sms, mail, internet browsing, wifi, taking photos with the camera, and so on ?
Or is it for dev purpose only ?
I hope someone can take time to answer this (maybe silly) question.
Thanks

camera - no, everything else OK. I did get an oat system update notification today, but install failed. Maybe i can flash manually and see what's new...

Thanks for the port. Can anybody make an install.zip, because it would be fine if we can use/try it as a second rom (in a multirom environment).

Latest download is flashable, if anyone interested. Phone working, wifi working, no camera...

New back/recent button app in marketplace is very nice. Looking pretty good overall. .. Maybe @freexperia can post updates in device forums to keep interest up.

[PROGRAM] Infiniflash v1.2 ~ It makes life easier.

The purpose of this program is to make my life easier when developing on the Android Platform. At he same time it may also make your life easier. I would like to keep this project totally open source and I include all of the source files withing the .zip that it comes in. What does this program do? It will allow you to flash custom ROMs straight from your computer, fast and hassle-free.
In this new version, I have done a ton of error/big fixes, rewrote quite a lot, and finally added wiping functionality. Enjoy!
Infiniflash REQUIRES that your device has ClockworkMod Recovery or any recovery that supports /cache/recovery/extendedcommand.
By the way, if you can think of a better name/icon for this program, please, please, please tell me.

I have a DHD as well and had the same issue. You must install the driver for it to work on your device.
1) Visit this link to download and install HTC Sync (which contains the driver): http://goo.gl/P3ZP1
2) After installation plug your device in.
3) To verify you have the driver, open the Infiniflash folder, hold the shift key and right click on the tools folder. Click open command prompt.
4) Now type in the command: adb devices
5) If your device showed up, it worked! Otherwise, try restarting or syncing your phone in HTC Sync, it should start working eventually.
6) Now that you have the driver, Infiniflash will *hopefully* work from now on.
Best of luck
Cheers.

This looks awesome, and I would use it but is there a different button for wiping to ext 4 and 3? All the roms I seem to switch between use different formats.
Thanks

By wiping to ext3 & ext4 do you mean formatting the /system partition to one of those formats? If so I might be able to implement it or make an add-on . By the way, which device requires you to do that? I've never heard of that before... are you sure it's a requirement?
Oops Double Post.

Thank you very much! I think I'll port it over soon, but the only bad part about that is that I have no idea how to make GUI's in Linux so it would be command line only .
It's funny that you mention that though because I'm a Linux user myself and never really thought about it.

Do I have to wipe/factory reset if I'm going update to this rom from previous CM7.1 Geno?
Without wipe it did not work for me so you should do it.

You were right, wipe is a necessity
---------- Post added at 08:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:36 PM ----------
I have crash on launch (com.android.phone), unable to use phone, I'm only one with this problem?
Yes, that is why i came back to CM7-07-01-2012.
i cant test it after full wipe fc.it must be a trick.if somebody had a success it will be good to show to others the way
yes, com.android.phone all time stops when try to call... whait for fix

You are lucky that you can run your phone, I can't pass pin confirmation process because of (com.android.phone) crash It's obvious that we need fix.
P. S. I have talked with one of the developers, they don't have their 8800 Pro's anymore so they can't check their new builds for bugs. Geno don't have much time for this, hope that it will be fixed in near future It's sad that the best developers don't have anymore that phones for witch been working, logical that they are not interested in this device like before.
hi all,
these are 5 easy steps how i got it working on my phone:
before you start backup all your data (phonebook etc) because this is a clean install and everything will be wiped!
1) go to recovery menu. do a factory reset/data wipe. goto mounts & storage and format system. wipe dalvik cache (i don't know if this is necesary).
2) install the update-cm-7.2.0-RC0-u8800pro-Geno-120202.zip from sd card. restart phone.
3) install root explorer or similar. replace phone.apk with older version (i replaced with phone.apk from 20120107-cm-7.1.0-u8800pro-Geno-en.zip). you will get an FC. reboot your phone.
4) change permissions in root explorer for the phone.apk like this: owner->read/write, group->read, other->read.
5) reboot phone and enjoy
btw thanks geno!
i think you can replace the phone.apk with older version in the update-cm-7.2.0-RC0-u8800pro-Geno-120202.zip before flashing. it is much easier.
the fixed Phone.apk(you need this one better than old version)
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gen...C0-u8800pro-Geno-120202-en-fixed.zip/download
my first custom ROM. it looks great!
only a very little bug that I noticed: here in Italy we don't have any 4G network (only HSDPA 3,5G), but the icon in notification area tells "4G".
Really not a real bug, anyway

is the phone.apk in the fixed version any different than the older version?
New version with fix works ok with no bugs till now Little notice that I didn't find market application on this rom so I had to install it manually.
OK
Yeah i came from last november cyano rom and it's all perfectly functional! Only one thing, yesterday accelerometer didn't work, and photocamera too, but a simple restart and now all good!
Good work!
P.S. I have installed two times this rom because first one any opening keyboard throw an exception.
Althoguh it is written that fm doesn't work, could you try to install spirit fm app and see what happen?
Thx!

VERY work in progress. Wifi works flakily use an open network to play with the keyboard tends to freak out when typing in a network password.
This is a PREVIEW of what this platform will become. It is not finished. Many apps are just placeholders. The good news the system image is built and you can just plug in new ubuntu images as they become available.
to install latest daily (as of 03/23/13)
Reboot into Recovery
Backup! - expect everything to be deleted if you do not.
WIPE (wipe data/factory reset) This is required!
Flash system image
Flash Ubuntu image
Flash Layout fix
Reboot
To reverse the process use adb reboot recovery - or hold power off button till it shuts down then restart in recovery - yes it's obnoxious but the reboot and power off commands are absent from ubuntu still. Once back in recovery wipe and flash a replacement android rom and you'll be back to normal.
YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR OWN ACTIONS DO NOT FLASH THIS IF YOU CAN'T RTFM.

After this gets to a more stable state for the A500 would someone be able to port it to the A200?
wifi is up
Raw speed
Hey Randomblame,
You keep me amazed by the speed at which you are able to get these new iterations running on our 2 year old machine. If anything it has re-validated to my what a good purchase the A500 was. Its developers like you that have made me a huge open source convert and I look forward for t he day when OS's will be device agnostic.
Thanks again for the effort behind this port and hope to see the platform emerge.
OP updated with download links and instructions.

He does it again, that ol' randomblame! So, any cautions on backing up and restoring, or is it just like an other Android ROM? I assume there's always APX mode to fall back on in case of catastrophe.

randomblame, I'm developing for another Tegra 2 device, and I"m stuck at a black screen. How long did yours take to boot? Was there any other changes you made?
I'm stuck on the black screen too
Luckily Ubuntu touch still supports adb and logcat for debugging - a black screen isn't exactly something I can trouble shoot read your logs I'm sure the issue will become apparent.
well...
Is it fast and smooth enough to have some FUN with it?
Anyway, Good Job on porting ubuntu touch on our a500! I was really eager to hear about your excellent jelly bean port, so I downloaded it and
flashed it immediately.

Works good so far.
I have also noticed that changing eq-settings does not affect the sound at all for me. Besides the non working Bluetooth-sound.

Reboot, change your luminosity and re-enable the backlight after lockscreen.

had the same problem many times, but i got a workaround:
go to display settings and DSIABLE auto brightness and adaptive backlight. Than do a soft reset (with volume+ and power button) and than you have to regulate your brightness manually but it works
WiFi MAC
Another bug is the WiFi MAC. After update to new build it reverts to something else and WiFi with restricted MACs does not work. I must everytime change the MAC-address in WCNSS_qcom_cfg.ini
Just downloaded the 20.01.2015 nightly. I'm gonna try as soon as possible and report back.
Help needed
Just downloaded the latest nightly. Was on stock Sony fw (although encrypted phone).
Followed guide from here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_honami
Did steps 1-4 (flash boot and reboot). Now the phone does not boot (stuck at Sony logo).
If I try to enter recovery (either volume up or down during boot) all I get is a black screen.
Did try flashing new recovery (http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...2-8-4-0-z1-t3002887/post58174682#post58174682)
But still only back screen on boot with volume up or down pressed.
I'm still able to boot into fastboot, but thats all. Any ideas?

Does anyone know how to install Google Play Store?
I can't seem to get google play working either. Opengapps pico requires more space to be able to flash it onto the device and Google Services installer doesn't work. Everything else seems to work perfectly and really smooth too! I might stick to Remix untill we find a way.
EDIT: After flashing the Rezize patch by Khaon (http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-10/development/mod-reclaim-free-space-partition-t3029605), I was able to successfully flash Gapps pico. Everything seems to be working well so far. I installed xposed and supersu completely fine. Also, the system mode switch is a brilliant idea! Great job PhoenixOS devs.
What version of Android is it? How is it, compared to REMIX OS?

How did you manage to install it via shame or fastboot?

I flashed the Resize patch and Gapps through TWRP recovery. I didn't flash the Recovery that came with PhoenixOS. (Recovery.img)
You might need to reflash a custom recovery through fastboot if you installed the one that came with PhoenixOS.
My experience of PhoenixOS Vs RemixOS
I don't see much information about PhoenixOS anywhere so I thought I would share my experience of running it on my Nexus 10 for a few days.
How did I install it?
- followed the instructions on the website flashing in "Root Mode": http://www.phoenixos.com/help/installation/help-ARM-en1
- Then flashed TMRP custom recovery in fastboot mode, Nexus 10 version
- And SuperSU to obtain root
- Then flashed the resize patch by Khaon (http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexu...ition-t3029605)
- And finally the PICO version of OpenGapps
- Rebooted to the new Phoenis OS and voilà!
I then proceeded to re-install some key apps from the Play Store and started playing with it..
First off, everything works: Wifi, Bluetooth, etc. I don't see a great difference in speed or battery life compared to RemixOS.
The window manager reminds me a lot of KDE (see screenshots attached) while the notification panel, on the right hand side takes it cue from Samsung TouchWiz, i feel - I will let you decide if it is a good thing or not
Overall, the system is robust. I am still going to go back to RemixOS, I think, for one reason. Somehow, the way apps behave in floating windows feel a bit erratic.. Resizing the window does not systematically force the app to reload while other apps seem to reload all the time when not re-sizing.
Also, while it is great that PhoenixOS offers to change the display density (thus resolution), a feature Remix OS doesn't offer, I wonder whether it has an impact on the rendering of apps in window mode and might affect them.
A last point: PhoenixOS provides the ability to change mode to full Android just by clicking an icon: this brings you outside the Desktop mode and into the "normal" Android (5.1) interface. While some people might find this a nice feature, since it is NOT possible to change the default launcher, it feels a little pointless..
So, all in all, for now I think I am going to go back to Remix and I reserve the right to flash PhoenixOS again.
Looking forward to hearing you experience and your views!

Is it still possible to get this working on a Nexus 10? I follow your steps but as soon as Phoenix OS boots I receive error messages of Google Services crashing.
Thanks!
