[Q] Kocaso M1050S compatibility pack for CM10 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello community!
I'm looking for help to build a Kocaso M1050S compatibility pack for CM10 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1821398).
It should be a recovery based zip mod, but I'm not sure how to build it.
I've downloaded an original firmware from here: dl [dot] dropbox [dot] com/u/22474333/Kocaso_M1050S_Softwinners_Crane-bc1003_ICS_4.0.4_ENG_Build_%2318_Firmware.img and works just fine. Now I'm looking a way of running Christian Troy CM10 port on it. The port works itself, but the touchscreen doesn't responds at all. So seems like I need to apply a correct drivers there. I've unpacked original firmware and included all required files from it (script.fex, complete modules and etc directory, idc and icu, /lib/hw). I guess that is enough to build the patch for it. Here is the smaller archive for these files, so you don't have to download the complete firmware: www [dot] multiupload [dot] nl/A4WUIS15D3
Could somebody please help to build a recovery patch from these files?
EDIT: Oh, and here is the init.sun4i.rc from firmware: pastebin [dot] com/qNguiS75

Couldn't find much on this tablet. I would also like to do the same as you. My wife won this tablet at an arcade and think it would be a pretty decent unit if it didn't run so slow. Did you manage to find anything out? I'm going to look around myself. I've been doing AOKP builds, I might sync up Troys and mess around with it this week.

No info still. I don't have an experience in building the compatibility patches. But it should be doable with files I've provided and someone who can do it.

Kocaso M1050S the .img link is broken. I will be grateful if you able to provide me with correct one. and another question: how did you install CWM recovery. thx in advance.

Same here, haven't had time to try and mess with it. I'm going to download a pack and see whats done in there. I'm going to switch into Ubuntu in a few and try and sync with CT's git as well.
I installed CWM 6.0.1.2 using this tutorial :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1802268
It seems to work so far. It reads my SD card and I was able to perform a backup. I've done nothing else at all with it yet so i'm not sure if it's really working properly but so far my device is still working fine.

Also I got the files you are looking for from another site.
Google this exactly :
MID_M1050s(chinese) bricked at android screen
As i'm unsure if outside links are ok here. It should be the first result. It's posted further down the thread.

Right, here is the new download link for firmware: docs.google.com/folder/d/0B_88d7OJP9HPWWEwejlSQkQ0X2s/edit
I'm still looking for CM10 mod...

working one for me

Thank you! But this firmware stops at 3 percent of flashing.
I finally found a working version and http://www.irexsoft.com/M1050_bc1003.img
I think that we can take device drivers from it for CM10)

how i can support arabic language in Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07.1

please, how i can support arabic language in Complete FroYo Bundle** FRX07.1 (rhod100)??

It's been asked before, this is the answer. However, this is for native Android devices, and I'm not sure anyone figured out how to get it working on our port. I never did figure it out, but I'm far from an expert on this stuff.
Here's how it worked for me: (Originally provided here)
1 - Download the "libskia.rar" attached to this post.
2 - You will need the latest version of a program called "Root Explorer" (tested with 2.17.1). Download and install it on your device, and don't forget to give it superuser permissions when you run it for the first time.
3 - Extract the "libskia.so" file from the package, and copy it to the "system/lib" folder on your device using Root Explorer. Use the "mount r/w" button to give the program permission to overwrite the file.
4 - Android should restart itself automatically when you copy the file. If it doesn't, restart Android manually. Your device now shows Arabic letters correctly.
The only problem with this method is that it doesn't solve the RTL text direction problem, but it is indeed a very acceptable solution that enables you to use Android for daily use.
Try it and tell us what happens. It worked for me using FRX07.1.
Oh, and arrrghhh, thank you for your devotion and efforts to bring Android to the Tilt2. Why don't you mention this method in the FAQ so that it could be found more easily by FRX07 users? And best of luck with the GBX01 effort!

np, and glad someone made an easy guide.
Can you make one change? Can you actually attach the files instead of linking to another site? Thanks.
I will consider adding it to the FAQ, but honestly this question has only been asked maybe 2-3x in the 2 years I've been involved in this project... not a very 'frequently' asked question is my point .
Sorry for reviving a dead thread but I just wanted to know is XDAndroid deodexed or odexed, I have searched and at a guess I would say it is deodexed but I haven't found anything that gives me certainty so if anyone could answer I would be grateful.
Thanks in advanced
Just before anyone says what does this have to do with Arabic I have found this site (http://blog.devasque.com/) that seems to have a method that works across the board so I just wanted to give it a try. I will post my results
Also the method posted above is ok but it seemed to mess up my English documents.

It's AOSP... so I guess odexed? I honestly have no clue.
Arrrghhh, as you weren’t sure I thought I’d give it a go any way and after a lot of testing I found that it works so I’m guessing the rom is deodexed.
My findings, the latest patch to work on both the GB0C and FRX07.1 builds is 0.789 anything after that seems to cause either boot loops or freezes.
Also it seems to work very well with both the direction being correct and the letter displaying correctly joined.
So if anyone wants Arabic this seems like a good option, all you have to do is:
Download the 0.789 patch from http://blog.devasque.com/how-to-apply-patch/ and extract it.
Then copy the framework.jar file from the system/framework folder on your phone to the framework folder in the patch folder, after that run command.exe and follow the instructions. After it finishes you will find a new framework.jar in the generated folder just replace your old file with the new one and reboot and hopefully you should see all the Arabic and like fonts displayed correctly.
There are instructions on the site but they are for the newest patches, the instructions I have posted are from what I did with this older version they are very similar just some minor folder name changes and less files to be converted.
Just like to say all the credit goes to Madmack and the people that have worked with him.
Cool, I'm sure that will help some people

mirror2.streakdroid.com is having DNS issues it seems, it's mainly affecting UK users (even though the server is in the UK)
I'm gonna make an announcement and remirror everything at devhost soon
thanks for explaining... though it is pretty funny for UK to had that kind of problem... unless it is because they started to implement web censoring or something similar...
sure i have seen it before but: Oops! Google Chrome could not find mirror2.streakdroid.com
i tried to download it from USA server but did not work or netherland

Archos Gen8 firmware 1.0.84 ?

Hi people !
As lot of clever people now try to pucsh Gen8 to ICS , i would like to know if someone kept the old Eclair firmware ?
It is not available anymore from Archos site and i would like to have, thanks SDE, on my 101 IT :
Stock Eclair
UrukDroid Froyo
OpenAOS Gingerbread
I love having the choice lol !
Thanks !

Thanks a million chrulri ! and btw congrats for the work you provide to keep our device on track !
Unfortunatly no way to downgrade ... it works well with 2.x (Froyo) firmware but not 1.x . (error 221)
And i doubt someone will try to make it possible as the tendences is more on giva access of higher OSes ... not lower ones !
It doesn't even work after full reformat?
Nope ... full format, install angstrom and then finally try reformat and install eclair ... error 221
Well then it's kinda hopeless on the easy road.
But you still could go the hardcore road and extract the squashfs root filesystem, the kernel and the initramfs from the .aos file and use the SDE to install them if you really really want Eclair to run on your device :silly:
Beg you pardon ?
OK ... a quick look on google shows that even extracty an aos is complicated (both tools didnot extract the same thing)
I will first weight if i can give enough time to go the hard way for maybe a poor result and then try to not brick my device ...
Thanks again chrulri ! and keep going you do it the right way !
OK i got a cooked .tgz file that contained squasfs-root folder. ... now i guess the zImage file i need is the one in raw folder named init-zImage .... i don't know where i can find/build initramfs.
I'm a rookie so if someone could drive me a bit on how to build files to make it bootable with a multiboot (kboot seems to be the best option as it can use different iniramfs and Zimage for each Oses)

Download for Project Infinity v8.0 not available?

Hi guys, I'm currently on AllianceROM, but I'm having a bit of trouble on it, and I want to try another Rom. Project Infinity looks really good with the aroma installer and the use of Viper...unfortunately, the download appears to not to be working. I've browsed the thread but no one has mentioned it disappearing. I've googled searched it and the only version I've found was v6.0. Can anyone direct me to the download or if you already have the file on your computer, could you possibly put it on this thread so I can download it please?
Thanks in advance

The kernel does not implement the dtd format sadly, but we are working on a device tree as well as a better twrp.
Thats a good news.
Thank you!!
