Hi all, are boot animations disabled for EWJet roms?, I put latest version in my phone and works like a charm, but tried installing one of those fancy boot animations and nothing, bootanimation.zip didn't even existed when I looked in /system/media, after copying my version there and rebooting it just shows the Sony Ericson tittle, is this feature completly disabled or am I doing something wrong.
Got an answer back from Erick (the developer of the ROM) and the answer is yes, both boot animation and live walpapers have been disabled on this ROM, to improve performance, and yes the thing is damn fast so don't mind a bit this features were put down, hardly reboot my phone anyway, hope this info is useful for other people
Found a way to enable them here:

I flashed EDT FlagshipV4 yesterday, and it was working fine until I changed the lockscreen and tried it out, but right as I pressed the sleep button the phone just shutdown. I booted the phone up again and the EDT animation played and the phone looked like it was ready to go (could move the homescreen and such). However, as soon as the media scanning thing was done, the phone would reboot and this would happen over and over again. During each reboot the phone vibrated in a specific pattern.
Now I'm pretty new to Android, so I did a battery pull, booted it to recovery and proceeded to flash the phone to the Trigger 2.2.1 zip I had on the SD card and the booting issue stopped. Can anyone tell me what went wrong with my phone? I'm hoping that it wasn't Flagship, because I really like the look of that ROM. Thanks!
Did u flash a new lock screen or just change to a different one via settings/display? If u flashed a new lockscreen sometimes the system files aren't the same as the Rom which cause it to do so.
Currently running ______________! (
Haven't had any issues with that rom, you must have flashed an incompatible framework for lock screens. If you haven't, I'd download the rom again and reflash.
Hellao Everyone
Well i FLashed (OFFICIAL) [email protected]_2.3.3_v2 two days ago with Franco's LAtest [KERNEL][12 JUL]franco.Kernel |.v1-GINGERBREAD| 2.6.35.13
Everything RUns Smooth and makes a 770 Quadrant Score with CPU settings on
122/691 using nofrills with interactiveX
Smoothass for some reason BUrns my Battery down very fast idk why ;S
coming to the point
both Tethering Dosn't Work here, neither USB not wifi :S
and another thing i noticed my Boot Animation is Still the same old Android and ...
When i lock the phone, Screenlock thingie there is no sound :S
any Suggestions
Your boot animation is still what?
v 2 has android eating apple...if your boot doesnt have that then you have failed flashing I guess.
I used v 2 for a couple of days, the wifi tethering worked, I didnt try usb tethering.
Back to v 1.2 for some reasons, especially the battery which I think last longer in the earlier version.
Regards
ok i re flashed the v2 patch, now i see the Droid Eating Apple, lmao'd there coz i was waiting to see it the 1st time but i just got the other default android thingie,
about the tethering,
1st time it says Wifi Hotspot Hosted but when my laptop connects to it, or i can say establishes connection to the hotspot it says Error on the Phone and the Tethering Icon Disappears.
i can ping to the phone but it dosn't send/receive anything :S
and wifi kinda gets bugged after this in the sense it connects to my wifi router but dosn't process any data, it uses EDGE to Send/Receive Data
ok its official Tethering dosn't work with v2 Some more ppl posted on the Official Thread so i guess its the kernel's fault coz some ppl have trouble with wifi too,
hope Franco implements a Update soon ;-D
Anyways thanks for the info @least my Boot Animation Changed xD
Hello!
I've been reading a lot about this new gingerbread and stuff.. I came to flash this rom after the official flashing... just because I wanted root and oc.
BUT, idk really why, some apps doesn't work right...
sadly, I didn't try to install this apps BEFORE flashing this ROM.
the apps are:
Jed (Japanese dictionary), this just crash after installing the dic files...
Kanji Recognizer, this is in a loop, you download the dic files over and over again...
It's weird, I thought first it was because of some problems with Japanese language and characters,,. but I've had to find other (not so good) apps for this matters... Also I've searched if somebody else had this problems with this app in Gingerbread but it seems that it's only me...
if somebody have any clue... please
Thanks!
Hi all,
I can't post on development, just wanted to thanks slide for Gintonic 2.1 & new kernel performance is up, yet i still experience random reboots on my X10 mini pro.
what I did: SEupdate, format SDcard, then root & xrecovery, then reset/wipe and install rom & kernel, so I'm sure it's clean install.
But I'm still experiencing reboots ...

Benoit

I have same problem in zombie panic kernel v 1.59 and v 1.61.
after i update to v 1.62, i don't had problem reboots. and everything it's ok.
Problem occurs usually when:
I use the phone for 10/15 minutes, that is running music or radio, or using the phone, like surfing and installing app from market.
I'll try the new 1.63 ...

Hi, No reboots for me 4 days into 1.63+2.1, I did similar process only difference is I use clockworkmod, someone else will have to confirm but I remember a while back all the roms where coming out with "no longer supporting xrecovery". As said dont know might be nothing but everyone seems to use clockworkmod now for flashing.
Sorry assuming you used xrecovery to flash rom since you mention installing it.
Well strangely, the update to 1.63 did it, no more reboot and I can even OC the phone ! It works great no reboot, even with wavy usage of GPS navigation with CoPilot live over the week end ! this is perfect !
I only have an issue with the radio FM app which is buggy : sound start on the hp instead of head phone, favorite station are not kept, frequencies are written in green on black which is not visible and RDS name is overlapping frequencies ...
Another issue, I'm still not able to fine tune auto brightness to have good reactivity when phone get out of standb by on shiny day it take 1/ 1.5 second for the screen to detect it need to boost lightness ... Same when I'm in a call and I want to use the keyboard to dial, it takes 1/1.5 second for the phone to adjust brightness... I've tried several tutorial from forum but it still have this small lag in brightness reactivity.
Other the phone is now perfect to me in 2.3.5 ! Thanks very much slade87 ! One note I don't like the boot animation some less shiny would have been welcome ...
Cool you got it all working, yes there where instabilities with cross ROM/kernels.
I like the new bootanimation but you can allways change it out if you dont..

First of all I would like to apologize for not so perfect English
I have U8650 and i would like to make this topic general topic for it. I know there are few topics but there is no much info in them.
I have made same topic on croatian forum for phones so i think it will be better if its on xda because there are much more people that are good in cooking cracking etc.
So lets begin
Detailed specifications can be seen on the LINK, however, the battery is 1400mAh[/ B] and not 1250 (i have sent email to gsmarena to change it but nothing hapend...)
ROOT and the original ROM
After playing with the phone I wanted too root it, after a good deal of trouble, and around 40 readed topics (without overdoing it) I came up with some knowledge, of course the problem is that the phone is currently on only few markets. (spain, croatia, turkey, australia and china i think)
To root U8650 you should flash it with original Rom, Spanish devices dont need original rom to root dont know why it is but it is
ROM
It is necessary to download an official ROM
LINK
After you download it unrar it and dload folder copy to memory card
Path should look like \ dload \ update
to flash device you need to
turn it off
remove the battery for 5 seconds
put the battery back in
press the buttons "VOL +" + "VOL-" + "ON" (all three keys at once)
and will start automatic firmware upgrade
for 3-4 minutes cell is debranded
If you get error not found firmware that means that you did not put the firmware on the SD card like you should (I got it a few times) just off the device and repeat the procedure.
root
After flashing unbranded firmware we can throw at root
software needed for the root LINK
This is similar to debranding.
download root file
Put it on SD card
turn off the phone
remove the battery for 3 seconds
Press "VOL +" + "ON" (without the vol-)
When you open the "bios like" menu use the volume keys up/down to select the update from memory card called root
after this procedure just reboot the phone and you have rooted phone
UNLOCK
My wife is on vip network so I had need to unlock cell

If you have any questions please ask, this all is wrote on xda and some other forums i just put all together
[B]Do not think i am responsible if anything goes wrong I have done in exactly those steps and everything works normally. Everything you do yo do at your own risk.[/B]
So: D after a slightly longer introduction with u8650 came the day to put Custom rom.
Of course, for custom rom you will need root thus described above tutorial.
After puting custom rom phone is like 20% faster
few main features
Integrated flash (load all ads from the flash) loads test flash from Adobe i didnt test it much more because yesterday i put custom firmware
new driver for the camera from turkcell that means 5MP camera resolution
Better battery life
overclock processors at 780MHz (you can set it manualy)
Here is the complete list of modifications that is taken with [URL="http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=262489"]LINK[/URL]
In principle, this entire tutorial is taken from [B]Zadkyn[/B] and translated becuse he is hard spanish guy nothing is on english he is not very good at answering questions but thanks to him we have custom roms and all the improvements.

I put 1.5 version because it has corrected a couple of bugs.
Biggest object is that he removed default camera app imho it's not a problem because you can instal lg camera.
So here is tutorial
What you will not learn from linked topic (and I found out by sheer luck) is that you need to install drivers and custom "bios" to be able to put custom rom
So first things first
You will need to do procedure in this topic [URL="http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=256095"]LINK[/URL]
First download the driver for Windows 7 [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/?3bvp3p42t4iqwt2"]LINK[/URL]
So these are the drivers that you install and run you will have a screen with two options press instal drivers
If you have XP and these drivers dont work download this [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/?20qkr711ceuna0n"]LINK[/URL]
I have W7 so I leave to you if this is working for xp (it should work because no one has yet complained )
The second step is to download this file [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/?k421vgl3xy1fgpa"]LINK[/URL] unzip it and run Instalador.bat
You have fine hacker green screen and bunch of Spanish. luckily it doesn't interest us. Go to the next step and that is putting the phone in Fastboot mode.
The third step unplug the battery cell out/in pressing VOLUME - (or the volume down) and the power button and hold for 10 seconds.
it will show you only the Huawei logo and it should only show you that.
Step Four Connect the mobile phone with the USB cable, wait until computer detects it and after a few seconds go ti fine spanish green screen and press any key
It will flash "bios" of the phone it should be ready in a minute or two there is no hurry.
then reset the cell and you should have a fine new "bios".
Check this by turning off cell battery out / in and press the Volume + (volume up) and the power button for 10 seconds.
It should appear with orange letters like from the picture
[IMG]http://postimage.org/image/2d31ltan8/[/IMG]
After you have fine new "bios" you want to put fine new rom
The first step with this rom download [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/?8qd05qhv5flhips"]LINK[/URL]
The second step is to put the zip in the root of your memory card.
The third step going into the BIOS mod So turn off the cell battery out / in the volume + power button for 10 seconds.
You get orange letter menu now navigate with the volume + and - and with the power Buton you confirm it.
The fourth step choose the factory data wipe, then wipe the cache and then advanced wipe devil cache (not the exact name but you will seen it)
Each time when you choose wipe you need to confirm it, always navigate to yes i want to wipe.
Fifth step Return to start of the BIOS and select the custom recovery and navigate to the zip file called zadkin and select it.
When you choose it will start to flash for me lasted about 4minute when it's finished, reboot the system and if everything went well (and there is no reason why not) you will get the boot menu with zad logo.
For first time cell loaded few minutes so patience.
After that you have a nice Costum rom that is faster and more economical with better battery life stronger processor and better camera
If you have questions feel free to shoot.
The same as in the first part of post you do all on yours risk and I am not responsible for any problems and errors. I did everything according to these instructions and I got what i wanted.
[B]CODES[/B]
codes for the service menu
[B]*#*# 2846579 #*#*[/B]
code for the info on your phone
[B]*#*# 4636 #*#*[/B]
All of this is wroted on few forums and i just wanted to put all in one place on the most visited forum for android (xda)
Also i would very like if someone with more expirience can read this tutorial and suggest something.
one more thing that i left out is RAM limitation and i hope to get some answers about that.
also if this helps someone feel free to thank me
Best regards
just flashed your custom rom without problems. its amazing what people can do..!! it seems based on the yoigo firmware and you have english and spanish as languages. everything you need is included filemanager app2sd etc. i like it very much.. thanks.
edit: could you kindly tell what the flashing of the bios (with pc) exactly is for?! thanks
If you dont flash that bios you cant wiPe devilk cache and you cant instal modified rom so basicly puting new bio is must for moded roms
It will be great if someone else can try this
As for wiping the data, there was only one thing possible to wipe. everything else was just a line of "NO" without option to change it.
I now have like 3 programs running in background thats cool... and of course its cool that many programs are removed that cant be removed otherwise (like documents2go trial)
But thE stock yoigo firmware is good too... It already comes with the possibility to install apps to SD u dont need extra program for that
EDIT :and i just come back to phone.. i left it on charger over night.. and its in the orange BIOS MODE !!!! so it crashed i guess ??? bad
EDIT2: Couldnt access 3g internet even tho i had the right profile .... will test some more
Unofrtunately the custom ROM has still a lot of bugs, be careful :-(
yeah its BS... i am going back to original yoigo at least there i can make it install all aps to SD automatically .... this hacked firmware cant even transfer most new aps to SD..
i hope i will have no problems cos of flashed bios...
thanks anyways both of you
edit: 2 more bugs.. adblock dont work (some java error crash) and the 11mb adobe flash cant be copied to sd or removed at all
out of 27 apps (a few downloaded by me) 7 can be copied to SD and 20 cant
is there anyone who tested cyan mode for this phone ?

12/14/11: I tried the rom upgrade on U8652 ATT fusion and received "install error' after unpacking.
Any suggestions?
12/15/11: I successfully installed the 'recoveryclockmod' after finding the proper android usb driver for winXp - 'pulse drivers'
then installed the custom rom. But the phone details on the installed custom rom says its a U8650 model not U8652.
Thanks OP
Thanks OP
I followed your instructions and installed recoveryclockmod and cyanogen_u8650-benru on my U8652. Now I finally have root and a nice ROM to play around with. Thanks OP

unlockroot doesn't work, i tried the latest version (2.2) and i get the same error "Failed to get shell root !"
I have fried my U8650
I attempted a firmware update (official)... stage one completed... phone restarted and got stuck with a grey screen (no logo nothing just blank grey screen) all the soft buttons are turned on. constantly.
It wont go in to recovery, a simple touch to the power button turns it on and then it wont turn off unless I take the battery out.
I tried flashing with DC unlocker but my system wont detect it, I have installed the drivers provided at huawei site.
the phone was just a week old and am real pissed.
worst part, i did all that after reading this post
Anyone has any idea, how i can get it to work once again.

I didn't try this method and I'm only suggesting it because it sound like you almost bricked your phone.
You could try installing ClockworkMod recovery using fastboot (here is a guide for that androidforums.com/sonic-all-things-root/476263-root-guide.html just follow 1-9 ) and then flash the original rom for your phone (I found a list of stock roms here android.modaco.com/topic/350367-huawei-u8650 )
Dont forget to wipe data/cache before flashing the new rom ( this might be the cause for the state your phone is in now )
Update:
Got the drivers by installing hi space and letting it search for appropriate drivers. Worked real smooth.
Now Computer detects phone. But the instalador.bat keeps on searching for device :S
Stuck and stumped once again.
I want to believe but all I see is darkness... or a mildly lit lcd with greyness to be precise. thoughts, ideas anyone.
Thanks man. A ray of hope finally.
Only one problem.
My system won't detect the phone. When i plug it in via usb, it turns on. I mean all the buttons turn on, screen turns dark grey from dead black. But that is it. Computer wont detect it. I am running on windows 7.
Another system detected it which was running on XP but it wouldn't accept the drivers.
Hi All,
I've been trying to port a 4.2.2 ROM to my GT-I9210T that has been long forgotten by the carrier, but I'm stuck. I'm not asking for someone to solve it I just need a pointer on where to look next.
I've patched my 4.1.2 3.0.31 kernel with updated Ion, Video, GPU and sdcardfs - that all appears to work.
The donor ROM is from completely different hardware. My 4.1.2 init scripts wouldn't work so I've copied the donor scripts and modified where needed. I've still got some work to do here.
I've now got hardware acceleration, bootanimation and cache build working.
On first boot everything looks good until it finishes cache building, it then re-launches the boot animation under a new process.
If I reboot it hangs on the boot animation, if I kill the bootanimation I get a status bar at the top with a clock for a few seconds then it disappears.
I've attached dumpstate_sys and dumpstate_app.
Thanks
