[KERNEL] zwliew Kernel - r1 - Nexus 7 (2013) Original Android Development

zwliew Kernel, flash and forget. Have a better experience without fretting over anything.
Just a quick intro to this kernel: I believe that our device is fast enough as it is. I aim to increase the potential and battery life of our device within its current CPU/GPU frequency or L2 bandwith. You don't have to do anything. Just install it and done.

Supporting my work:
I am a young student in an elite school struggling to pay the resultant hefty fees and juggle between my studies and development. A thanks button shows appreciation and really motivates me to go further. To go the extra mile, donating to me so that I won't have to worry as much about the fees and instead focus more on development will help me greatly too. Of course, you don't have to do anything. If you're a satisfied user of my kernel, I feel glad too.

zK Updater
This is the mobile updater for zwliew_Kernel. It supports auto-checking and auto-updating in a nicely designed package.

Your instructions say to flash the zip file, however, only a .img file is available, which isn't a problem as it can easily be flashed of course using something like Flashify but you might want to amend them. Thanks for the kernel.

Sorry, copy pasta from Moto X thread. Fixed. BTW, once the production release of zK Updater is out, it can auto-flash your kernels.

Downloaded fine using your app. One thing that I would suggest however is asking the user if they want to flash the kernel rather than it downloading and installing straight away followed by a reboot. I wanted to switch back to the stock kernel prior to installing this but because it auto flashed never had the chance. Apart from that it appears to be working fine despite having been installed over another non stock kernel.
One thing I have noticed since installing it is that your app no longer works and crashes out. Have cleared data and cache several times to no avail.

Did you install the latest production release, v1.1.1? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=zwliew.kernel If you are, please report the crash using the in-built Google crash report. Also, there is an option in the settings menu to disable auto-flashing.

Latest version installed and has sorted the issue thanks. Also seen the option to autoflash - not a problem now as its running your kernel of course!
What app do you recommend to tweak your Kernel with?
Thanks.

Comimg out of my 'retirement' to express my utter dismay that this 'developer' has taken the template for their application from the popular developer @Francisofranco and has utterly ripped off his work and branded it as his own. Don't beleive me? Check out https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.franco.kernel Your developer is nothing but a fraudster without sufficent imagination or knowledge to make his own app. The only commands this guy knows is copy and paste. A cheap Asian rip off of the original high quality production. This one has the nasty made in Singapore etshed into the platic you cant remove without getting a file and sanding down your product. Do you want that to run your device? If so you are braver than me

Looks just like another Material inspired app to me, same as hundreds of others out there. Didn't realise that Franco had cornered the market with the design!! (and yes, I do have his paid app installed but don't use his kernels as I find them lacking in features - in fairness, I don't actually use his app as I prefer KControl or Faux.)

I don't think using Google's material design guidelines qualifies as a copy or ripoff.
I also own the paid version of FKU, but I can't see more than material design similarities.

With utmost respect for you, as we all should have for each other, if you came out of your "retirement" just to say that, you were better off retired mate. So much aggressiveness because of the app? Which isn't even is main development focus? Its just a "shortcut" to update the kernel. I respect you, I've seen you around and you seem like a good guy, but seriously mate, that wasn't cool :/

At first, I thought that the first version of the app ressembled a lot like the Franco's free FKU. (which was really the same thing only with a different color) I guess it was only used for a template. It then, with later updates, looked like it is a different app with its own implementations.
Looks like it was a rushed opinion to me on something not finished yet...

MIUI please...

How does it run?
Sent from my X10i using XDA
I don't mean to be rude, but why are all these so called OS'es?
It runs on Android 2.x or something, which is the real Operating System.
Suddenly I see all kinds of OS popping up, but I don't understand what they are.
As far as I understand they change a bit of look and feel, something that also can be done by theming the known ROMs, or maybe you can compare it with the layers that SE, HTC and other manufacturers apply to Android to make it their own. But I'm sure they aren't an OS.
So, for what other reason are these 'OS' interesting?
IMHO: Cyanogen, MIUI, AOSP, AOKP are the foundations of all these so called OS'es. Or am i missing something here, and do all these OS'es really differ from each other and stand out in some way?
Again, I don't mean to be disruptive in any way.
Kind regards.

i second that...the motivation behind all this releases is pretty, but maybe we should see some narrowing, focusing on one kind of rom and developing it as far as it could.

The sites featuring the source roms advertise them as OS's only like www.joyos.cn,www.lewaos.com. So only named them as OS's.
Nice work!

i would just suggest releasing them all in a single thread...
just replacing the framework and app folder is not really development... but yes i do appreciate the large number of ROMs available for this old phone
and yeah it keeps the activity on the dev forum high anyways....

[Q] My girl off the iPhone... recommendations?

After months of convincing her how much better Android is then the iPhone (and buying her a Nexus 7 tablet - which finally pushed her over the edge) she has picked up a SIII.
Now, my first instinct is to grab the sucker, root it, put CyanogenMOD on it. But, that is the "hacker" in me talking.
I don't want to "ruin" her experience. So, do I leave the phone "as is" with the TouchWiz on it? Do I install a custom ROM?
I know ZERO about the phone as I've only purchased Nexus devices for myself (Yes, I have a N4 - complete with broken glass back already).
So I am turning to you all, that have the phone, to help me help her.
Any tips, recommendations, experiences, hacks, ROMs, Apps, etc..etc.. that you can share would be helpful.
Thanks all!
Same with my other half, I ended up leaving Touchwiz on it as everything else was too difficult for her and I suppose Touchwiz is simple, isn't it?
Ask her if she wants the phone rooted
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
She knows nothing about that... remember she is coming from an iPhone. So iPhone users aren't really as technical / geeky as us Android users are. :good:
I am going to have to root it though. I just realized that Google Wallet is not allowed to be installed on the device. She REALLY wants that. So a "root" is a definite now at this point.

I'd say go with the Sammy-based ROMs (the ones in the regular development section) so it has all the TW features, but put Domination theme on it to give it an AOSP look, as I hate the TW design. You can try null rom, it has domination included. Also check out JKay framework in original development and see if you want to use that as well, it's included in the null rom too.
dont make her to escape from touchwhiz...its actually a nice launcher for someone who started it....its nice and simple with all the stuff thats needed for a user...
also, check what all apps are synced with network all the time, so that she is not frustrated by the battery usage...sync apps only that are required...by default some of the unwanted apps will be synced...
also, if you are rooting, make take off all the crappy apps...i think that should make it to be a good experience for her n you... have a nice journey with sgs3 and N4..
Yup, since I am rooting it, off comes all the 'bloatware' installed on the phone.
How does that effect OTA from Sammie though? If an update comes out and I have removed the 'bloatware' will the OTA still come through and update without getting the "Red Android Exclamation" mark ?

You can have UltimaROM. It is a Sammy based ROM with JB Domination theme- looks beautiful. It has wide open choice of menus in the AROMA Installer that can let you not to install bloatware. You can have Nova Launcher within that installation to not have Touchwiz also . I am running this ROM for almost 3 months.

i thought ... so is just ... style
Girls like simple stock, but root and a decent kernel will help her (no ads etc and better sound/performance)
I have a N7 and love it. For the S3, try the most popular rom with lots of support and gui installer (omega v37) to start with. It has lots of different themes to try from the kitchen as well as mods etc. It's very stable. I use the boeffla kernel, close to stock, fantastic sound enhancements, she'll love it... Don't forget to remove the bloat!

The moment you root it, thr device status will change to "modified" n from that moment you wont get any official updates, you have to rely on XDA, n must say XDA is not doing bad for updates...

As you may know, the XDA community is ALWAYS keen to make ANY sacrifice to help another user.
As this time it is my turn, and noone offered this earlier, I think that the easiest for you way would be if you'll send your girl with her phone to me for about two-three weeks.
I can ensure you that it will not ruin her (and I hope mine as well) experiences< and I can assure you- it will be plenty of rooting...
I would suggest keeping it stock so it has all the features but putting nova launcher on to keep it a consistent user experience with her nexus 7.

When he gets it back, though, it'll be obvious it's been modified and the guy won't get any more support. The phone will probably behave differently too.
Cyanogenmod might be a little too intimate for an android virgin, stick to only touchwiz.
And getting the xella kernel is recommended to be on the safe-er side of the sudden death bug (or any other kernel with the bug fix).
You my friend, have issues! LOL

I recommend the crDroid rom. This one has a lot of options to choose, so you can install only what you need.

Note 3 + Ubuntu Touch

I am currently in the process of building a Note 3 Rom of Ubuntu Touch. I have the experience with Ubuntu and Linux Development to do this, but I would like non-monetary support, like volunteers to find bugs. I'm using a rom based off of stock, minus KNOX (here) so it should work fine.... but that's never a guarantee. I will be testing this ROM myself, but I want to find every bug possible.
If any developers would like to get some addons in here, pm me. I would like to make this as useful as possible.
When CM11 100% functional source code is released, I will rebuild this off of it. I do want to include the best I can into this.
This will be based off of MJE, so, if there could be a person or two to hold back from updating, and trying this out, I would owe you sooo many cookies. I mean, MOUNTAINS of cookies. This voucher is redeemable, alternatively, for a lake of Caramel or an Ice Cream Storm.
***EDIT***
The Cyan text is invalid. Upon rereading sources, it will not matter what rom I use.
*******POSTPONEMENT********
This project will be postponed until the completion of the CM11 Note 3 source code.
I would love to help test!

Thank you! Would you mind listing some Ubuntu apps you would like to have included in it? I will already include a couple for testing purposes, but I want to make this enjoyable and useful, after testing

well, unfortunately, I can't build it yet, unless you don't mind not having root. I know where to download the stock source code, but I found out that root access would not be a given, even with as little Ubuntu takes from Android. Not to mention, it's a lot easier with the CyanogenMod source.
I will make sure to get all the extended basics. Notepad++, Terminal, basic utilities, media utilities, a file manager, and others. I'll put an app of my own for feedback purposes. Ubuntu Touch is supposed to have the Play Store, so, if I miss something you want, no problem.
I think, when I have my first completely stable build, I'll move on to building a developer's build, including support for programming environments. Imagine being able to build an app on your phone, without a computer. A bluetooth keyboard would be necessary, but I think many would be interested.
If anyone can build an app, I have an idea for the way the interface designer would work. PM me.
---------
Thank you for asking. That sparked the thought on how to re-package this for distribution. Before, I was going to have everyone adb it into their phone, as per the documentation that exists for Ubuntu Touch. However, it would be easy to just zip it all, then transfer and install. To adb it is to just make sure it's clean, but I can make sure that it happens clean via certain adjustments.
I'll test out even though it doesn't have root. Nice to know I can use play store. Even with cyanogenmod code there is no root? Cant wait to test

I'll go ahead and start building it then. I was thinking that there would be not-so-much interest in a non-rooted version. As far as using the CM code, that would give root and the most ease of building. Using Stock gives a guaranteed driver support, however, I am not too sure if KNOX is integrated into the parts that Ubuntu would take from the code. I'll have to research it a bit. I won't bother if KNOX will be pulled in too.

No need, and it wouldn't work anyways. All CM11 source is currently not 100% stable, therefore, I don't know if it will work properly with Ubuntu. I'm grabbing the source directly from Samsung.
Oh I see. Will this build be able to switch between android and ubuntu, or was that only for Nexus?

We can build applications with AIDE, but it is pay-ware with a disabled free version. I'm anxiously waiting for someone to build an equivalent freeware application.
There has been a bluetooth virtual keyboard out for a few years.
This won't require a developer's phone will it?

No, this will not require a developer's phone. Just the knowledge to install a custom rom. And as far as AIDE, I will ask them if they would do a promotional by including the key in this rom. I will offer them the idea-work for a pet-project that I abandoned a year or so ago. It might appeal to them.
As far as switching between Android and Ubuntu, that was for the older versions of Ubuntu Touch. Originally, Ubuntu Bootstrapped on top of Android, but that was battery inefficient. Now, it's built on top of of the Android core.
Upon looking further into the differences between the first version and the current, I have sadly discovered that Android apps are no longer supported. I could use the first version, as it is still available, but that would make the build far larger than it has to be. After the completion of this project, I will ask someone to continue upgrading, while I move on to building Ubuntu apps for as many Android apps as I can. However, there are a great deal of Ubuntu apps already made.

Ubuntu Touch Dying???
I had checked the Ubuntu Touch repo a while ago, but it seems to not be much larger..... we need to bring it back. Maybe we could turn Ubuntu into a Powerhouse Platform, by creating Ubuntu apps that utilize the power of the Note 3.
N3 has the power to run a sql server and apache, if it's only for a small network. Imagine, being able to make a site for your your friends only, and being able to manage it like a full server, however, you'd have no fees (unless you want a domain, but even then, there are free domains).
Going on this idea, if a sql db is on a mobile device, there is less risk and more ability to control access (ie. turn on airplane mode to disable it)
The N3 could be used as a file distribution spot. You could have an automatic broadcasting of a particular file. All newer galaxy phones could just access it from the wifi direct menu. What an easier way to hand out flyers?
We need to think of ways to utilize the power of the N3 and the simplicity of the Ubuntu Touch SDK. A dump trucks can carry a lot of feathers.
I, personally, dislike using C++ for app development (Thank GOD for Java), but I will do it for this project.
I need more ideas, but please take time to make a list, instead of 1/post

Eerrrmm... I'm a 100% sure that Ubuntu touch uses the cm kernel. That's why you need a Developer edition device. It's the only one that can flash kernels So if the following statement is true. Then this can't run the 99% of the Verizon note 3s correct?

Praise this man.
He did it!
OT:
Even though it is very inconvenient for me that wifi is not working, I will definitely test this rom.
Keep up the good work man!
EDIT:
I just tested it and man it is fast and smooth. Big improvement over stock! Because of the fact that wifi doesnt work atm I could not try everything but everything worked except Apollo( the cm music app) didnt want to play my music, maybe thats a problem on my side but idk, and the keyboard was all bugged and laggy. I suggest you to just put in the stock google keyboard inplace for the keyboard app thats now on it. I think most the people would like it more over the keyboard app you put in it.
If you fix the wifi issues I will test again and I will use it as my daily driver.
Good job man!
Pretty awesome!
The rom is running pretty smooth and no lag at all!
Great work man!
I found some bug that you can work on:
-Keyboard completely buggy - I instaled Android AOKP keyborard but the bug persisted. I try to use and I noticed that the keymap is ok, but background is bigger than normal.
-Audio jacker does not redirect the sound correctly, when there is a plug in the jack, it makes the speaker sound lower, but does not redirect the sound to headphone.
-Bluetooth headset connects and works like a charm, but there is no bass sound.
-menu soft key does not work correctly. it does the same as back button.
without wifi working, i couldn't check anything else...
I'd like to thank you again for porting this rom, i've been waiting for it since i bought this p714!
I'll be waiting for any updates, i'll test it as fast as possible and post a feedback for you.
cm10
Omitted the language pack, I hope that the final version to be corrected, all praise for the effort about roma ..
This Rom is only for the dual version or is also available in P710 version? can you help me? I need a Rom from P710 because I do not think will get update. It look great. Follow like this, I will be expecting for the official version :good:
im glad to see this thread,,, but i'm still waiting for the fix. thanks
Why you use Nova Launcher instead the Google one?
Despite it,
HOORAY!!! THANK YOU MAN!

You are perfectly legally able to sell something under GPL (yes, for money) given that you provide the source code together with binary release. Same rule applies when you provide binary for free - you have to provide the source code as well.

He finds it very weird that you force people to donate.
The way it usually works is that the developer posts a fully working rom and then people who like it can donate.
People are not going to donate to some guy on the internet who says he will finish something if you donate.
It is like early access. The developer can always just get away with the money and never finish the rom.
TL;DR
You will get donations if you have finished the rom, not before you have finished it.

My own two CM ports are well and healthy at the "finished" stage and I have yet to see any money o my paypal. Not that I complain - I have done this for myself to be able to use debloated OS. But you shouldn't bash him since he has already provided something that actually works (which shows he knows what he is doing).
But I agree he should release his source code, as per GPL.

Yes, you are obliged to give Linux Kernel source for the release you are providing - under GPL. If you fail to do that you are in breach of the license and will face the consequences.
Regarding other android specific stuff - since those are Apache license mostly you don't have to provide sources. Linux kernel is not apache license though.

Per GPLv2 and XDA requirements source code needs to be posted for the kernel. Please do so.
Also per XDA rules donations are ONLY in appreciation for work given. There can be no asking of donations in the promise of future releases.
Moved to Android Development for now. When source is provided it can be moved to OD ONLY until an official CM10 is released then it will be moved to AD again. If this is updated to CM11, there already is an unofficial CM11 in OD so this will be moved to AD in that case too.

You're the greediest developer I've seen. I don't need your cm10. other developers will port for us.
we are fine with our debloated Roms.
Trying to do a port for cm11. Plus device tree for this device is a mess and have been working on trying to clean it up. Not going to be home for a few days due to family problems so I can't do anything till then. May need some help from some devs tho.. the last error I came up to was a busybox error while compiling kernel. Get more info soon

That sounds great, what about an AOSP JB for first? Maybe that would be easier since you have sources for JB and KK should be released soon, maybe with the sources(as it was with JB)

You should ban, you are very obnoxious. The Rules of xda says that you MUST put the source code, because Android is OPEN SOURCE, so it's free, anyone can modify it as he wants and here
And then YOU CAN NOT write: Works suspended due to lack of donations, everyone is free.

He should not be, under any circumsrances, banned, he definetly has done something very important and outstanding by creating CM. As soon as he'll provide the sources it all will be fine. Greeding is not nice, but let's keep the topic clean from anything not related to the development, period.

Huawei is basically saying "you're on your own" to anyone who received a device as a devloper. That's not a great position... It's a pretty solid slap in the face. My first thought as a developer is "ok, they are out, why would I bother". I'd cut more slack if the device was 18-24 months old but they are pushing this as their flagship currently and an alternative to the more expensive phablets on the market. Even Samsung provides "reasonable" support for "old" flagships better than this.
The crazy thing is the hardware should be more than able to keep up with 4.4/5.0. Unless they are jumping right to 5.0 this move makes 0 sense to me.
Modding. Mymind and xordos with my continual softbrick testing have managed to port a pretty much fully working TWRP onto my MT2-L05 device and I have uploaded a decrypted 4.4.2 rom for my Mate 2 in this forum, so why don't we collectively try and port it to your device, any help you need that are within my skillset I will happily provide....just a thought.. ....

Does Huawei use a tool like RSD or Odin for system images or are devs stuck with manual disk images and the like via recovery?
Hmm, I was thinking about getting one of these, now I'm having doubts. If we only
get third party firmware, would I still be able to run software which will not run with root access ?
Have any of those developers who received the free phones mentioned their intentions?

Right now I'd hold off. Buy something else. The operating system on this phone is already a year old. Support for things like Android wear etc will be questionable in 6 months.
If Huawei doesn't update it's phones you should go with something else. Just my opinion.

I saw the blog post on my G+ feed earlier today. I'm not really shocked, but it still really feels like a kick in the teeth.
I'm not sure what kind of luck we'll have getting a custom KK/LP Rom running on this phone. Usually the manufacturer-provided ROM is used as a baseline for other modifications to be made. If we were to spin our own AOSP Rom, could we even find the drivers and kennel modules to make everything work?
Where do we go from here?

The kernel is up on one of the hosted Huawei sites. A quick once over at the BABBQ indicated it's a fairly vanilla Qualcomm 3.4 kernel with some Huawei bits sprinkled in. Shouldn't be much of an issue for 4.4. getting a 3.10 kernel up for 5.0 will be trickier and is a big question mark as 5.0 isn't officially released just yet. At the BABBQ we also discovered they didn't implement all of the modem modes in the ROM. Another developer told me they might take a closer look but gave no detail for timing.
I've been tinkering with adb backups, titanium and xposed lately and I'm not liking the stock ROM much. They omitted large chunks of the adb backup stuff rendering apps like Helium useless, the SD cards don't come through to the root context properly forcing you to enable a compatibility flag in SuperSU in order to make titanium work and apktool and other standard tools choke nicely on the system apks. I had to fall back to running the smali decompiler by hand to find the right hooks in SystemUI for a simple xposed hack.
Adding to the fun their version of Settings.apk is missing a number of standard features which you can only adjust via Tasker/SecureSettings or by hand behind the scenes. They also didn't implement encrypted storage in the vold storage stuff so you're screwed in an enterprise setting.
Based on what I've seen thus far a source based build is almost necessary if you want everything android has to offer. However, vetting a ROM to ensure various new functionality is 100% will be a pain.
Huawei left out a lot and the lack of 4.4 is a serious kick in the teeth.
Horrible
I just purchased this phone from amazon on July. I wouldn't mind the no update but I want to get a google watch in the next few months so I'm not very happy about this announcement. For some odd reason, Amazon is still letting me return this phone so I'm thinking of returning the phone. What is another phone that I can get at this price range?

You can use Huawei's Hi-Suite software to flash roms to phone from pc. You can also pack roms up into Huawei's update format and flash them in quick update mode from your phone's external sd card, or you can install via recovery.
I bought mine on September 29 (didn't get it until early October) through the gethuawei site. I wonder if I can return it... I'll find out when there livechat is live today, the 29th of October.
After just one minor OTA update they officially announce no additional updates for their only US device... That's a deal breaker for me.
Damn, I was just about to buy this phone. Does anyone know of any good alternatives in Canada?

Not surprised , saw this coming from the early start . Thing is , there is no alternative with these features / size at the 299$ price tag . There are phones like the ZTE nubia / moto g / Blu products / etc but they don't hold a candle to this phablet . On another note , I've customized my phone to the max and i don't need a major OS update . Just me , this phone runs perfectly for my use . Fine if they just push minor OS fixes via OTA . Developers can be our saviours ! Let's not forget this isn't really a flagship ! You're paying for the experience as created/intended at the time . Let's wait and see :thumbup:
