[ROM] SpeedLegend v0.6 [Senseless] - Legend Android Development

[DISCONTINUED!]
There are so many good roms out there, no need for this one. I nowadays prefer CyanogenMod6 and will stick to it, with small modifications. I suggest you do the same ;-)
So, here it is! My first cooking
The ROM is VERY stable. About 170MB free ram standard. When using a task killer (kill ALL) the RAM boosts up to 225MB. So this is my first public release, been tweaking and trying out different combinations of apps, more changes will come!
SpeedLegend v0.6 - Update Base 2.03.405.3
Changelog:
Boot sound removed!
Facebook sync loop fixed!
Bluetooth fixed! (Successfully transfered pics between my nokia and legend both ways)
Flickr re-added.
LauncherPro, ROM Manager, XDA-App, EStrong File Manager removed (d/l what you want from market! customize yourself!)
Full changelog of ALL removed files coming up at a later point. Right now? I'm too tired!
No more A2SD version as it didn't seem to work properly.
SpeedLegend v0.511 - Minor update Base 2.03.405.3

Known Issues/ToDo (v0.511)
No popup when connecting the phone to a computer, eg. no disk drive. Added USB Switcher (widget) until I manage to fix this (probably removed somthing that is needed). Add USB-widget to homescreen, connect phone to USB, press the widget - Now you have a disk drive connected.
Some options in Settings (Personalize, Text to Speech, Connect tp PC) cause FC because of Rosie and Tts-services removed.

Looks good : D
But I'll wait, as I haven't been doing any flashing with my phone yet, and I kind of like it as it is.
If possible without too much hassle, why not remove the messaging-app and install handcent(or something) instead?
And btw, why are you using the 2.03 ROM now when the 2.05 is out?

Looks good
no-one has released a 2.05 to use as base is pretty much the answer, i will use 2.05 as a base for my rom when someone releases it

It's very possible, I just like the stock HTC messaging app I have never tried hanscent, maybe I should check what it's all about..

I liked it too, until they made it unusable(doesn't scroll all the way down when opening a thread..) in 2.05..

When base 2.05 comes, and if that bug still persists - I will definetly change the app to something else. But I'm trying to keep the memory usage minimal, I will have a look at handcent and compare it to the standard Eclair app. But as long as the base is 2.03 I'm guessing I'll keep it stock..
Still trying to deodex the ROM. damnit.. boot loop persists :<

Hi...
Thanks for your release and efforts..
Now I am using RODRIGUEZ STYLE v 2.3 and it works good...
But today I faced with a problem that the nexus start page repeated after restarting the phone and the phone did not log in, I tried many ways but that was not fixed, so I decide to choose another ROm, I am not sure which rom should I use, but yours looks good.
I have some questions, then I am going to start installing it..
MY PHONE DATA:
Baseband: 47.26.35.04U_7.05.35.26.L
Build number: 1.31.405.4
-----------------------------------
Can I use your rom without any problems???
My phone was rooted with r4 modaco.
But Can I Unroot it after installing your rom and get the FROYO UPDATE that HTC is gong to release..???
I dont want to brick my phone because of wrong Radio version,and I dont know how can I find that, which rom is suitable for my phone and which one is not.,would you please tell me that, is this rom suitbale for my phone and i am not going to brick it?..
And, Does this Rom contain Persian or Arabic characters support for reading SMS and Web Browsing..???
Is the bluetooth works smoothly with this rom..??
Thanks for your answer...

Did you remember to sign the apk's after the deodexing? That can be what is causing the bootloop... always sign all apk's when making a change..

Yes, since your phone is rooted you can install this, and it will remain rooted. You can unroot the same way as with r4, eg. just install the RUU and it's done.
Persian/arabic did not work, neither menues or keyboard. I can look into that, see if I can find the solution for it.

Oh, thats why then.. I signed the apk:s BEFORE deodexing.. wondered why it worked yesterday, but not today (guess I managed to change the order somehow.. shame on me!) Thank you!

thanks man...
I am really a fan of you....
Now I am downloading the rom..
My ROM ver is 1.31, if I upgrade it with your rom to 2.03, Can I install 1.31 RUU again?? or I should find a 2.03 RUU..??
And, I know that KYOSA add persian characters support to his ROM, maybe it can help you to do this for your next release...

You can unroot with any stock RUU, 1.31 if you want, or 2.03 if you prefer that. The RUU updater wont care which version of a rooted ROM you have.
I'll see what I can find about the languages. Found a way for G1 that should work for Legend roms too, but I'll se if I can find anything else.

Okay, found this one update that should give arabic support to any ROM. I don't have a chance to test myself (I cant read arabic so I wouldn't know if it's right?). I did not make this file, I don't know who did, but I'm not taking any creds for it.
Download
Install the rom, then (without wiping), update with this. Please let us know if it works as it should.

Ok, this looks very nice. Ill try iy out.
oh btw, does this rom have app2SD ?

No A2SD on this ROM (I dont have my class10 sd anymore, running on a class2 so cant use a2sd). I can make one with a2sd, but I can not test it myself..
EDIT: Added A2SD version in first post. Untested, feel free to try it and please report any problems!

arh kom så, viking! 200 dkr for 8gb class4!! hehe
This needs app2SD hehe
anyhow,
First boot was really fast, and noticed that after scrap'in all HTC on this ROM you forgot to replace the Screen-Lock !
Im personally fond of this vanilla one; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=709183
needs a deodexed rom tho ;-(

i left the lockscreen on purpose, and the htc music player (they are connected). i should change both, just havent really checked in to it yet. Still lots and lots of htc-files in the system/app, needs cleaning, but I'm working on it.
About the deodex, Im running into problems there.. Deodex (+ sign apk's) = reboot loop. Can't seem to figure it out!
I liked that lockscreen btw. I'll probably change to it, remove htc world clock (replace with eclair clock) and change the music player.

Short: Don't sign the apks, it's not necessary, even dangerous. And it breaks your precious ROMs.
Long explanation:
If you compile the sources yourself, the scripts will at a certain point create your private and public platform keys, store them in /etc and also sign all apks with it. So this wouldn't be a problem if you could compile Sense.
If you blindly re-sign every package you run into a problem: You use a key that differs from the one in the key-storage (the one HTC uses to build and sign). And there's nothing you can do about that.
Eventually you will face the biggest troubles with four packages.
Vending:
Resign it and no paid apps will available at all (which is obviously caused by replacing Google's signature with yours).
GoogleCheckin, GoogleSubscribedFeedsProvider and NetworkLocation (and some non proprietary ones I don't remember):
Now these are even trickier as they require access to features that the platform strictly locks away from apps.
No app, downloaded or pre-installed is granted these rights except for when it was signed with the platform key. This was done to protect the users.
Resign these and you will see "Package xyz has no signatures that match those in shared user android.uid.system; ignoring!" in your log-files.
That being said there are lot's of reasons why odexing could fail. I've had a few unsuccessful attempts of using dexopt-wrapper on my device without any obvious reasons - I know for sure that bootclasspath and everything else was correct.
But, there's a nice little trick to make it work: Don't do it (yourself)!
Instead you can grab the files from /cache/dalvik-cache, they are exactly the same.

CFH [Wildfire] v1.0 - Newb rom

Hi
I had the day off, and decided to have a play with the Kitchen to see what I could come up with. After following the instructions on theunlockr.com I decided to base my rom on the OpenFire v.2.3 rom. Any issues that rom had, mine will have.
I have added a few things and changed a couple of things, but in the end, this is my first rom for a device I do not have myself. I have an HTC Desire, but noticed that the Wildfire isn't getting as much love, hence that choice. I hope to get a better understanding of what it takes to make a proper custom rom at some time in the future.
Removed:
Launcher2
Added:
Launcher Pro
Titanium Backup
Rom Manager
Fancy Widget
From the OpenFire v.2.3 post:
NO HTC APPS DO NOT WORK ON THIS ROM AND I WONT TRY TO PORT THEM (but if you try and suceed please tell me and I will maybe include them!)
This ROM is from the android source there is no HTC apps or extra apps from the start it do come with spareparts and dev tools from android source. At the moment it seems a bit slow I think that is due to animations, animations can be turned of in spareparts or in the settings menu.
Features:
- Froyo aosp 2.2.1
- Root + superuser app
- Busybox
- No htc apps!
- Some google apps
- Multi language
- Darktremor Apps2SD
- Patched market
- Usb & WIFI-thetering
- JIT
- 3 in 1 reboot menu
- It may make your phone explode! (You have been warned)
Bugs / Not working:
- Video recording working (but, bad quality)
- Cant import contacts from SIM ? no read/write acess to SIM ? (can anyone confirm or deny this?)
TODO:
- Get rid of above bugs
- HTC-camera (maybe)
Thanks to:
HCDR.Jacob - for the kernel and vendor
Yopsi - for sharing package with google apps.
danne_jo - for APN stuff, and for hosting to my ROM
Sympnotic - For his patched market app
AnantK123 - For pointing out a fix for the camera app
acavella - For hosting / making a homepage dedicated just for OpenFire
Notes:
NO HTC APPS DO NOT WORK ON THIS ROM AND I WONT TRY TO PORT THEM (but if you try and suceed please tell me and I will maybe include them!)
To get app2sd to work you need an ext partition when you have that you might have todo a full wipe and reflash the ROM to get app2sd to work
When you boot up first time choose "com.android.provision"
Anything you want to know about OpenFire can be found at the OpenFire website.

What did you change? We don't need roms like those. Everyone can customize his installed rom like he wants.
Why don't you stick to a phone you have and help projects that just need help instead of reinventing the wheel over and over again?
no offense, just my personal oppinion

None taken.
I've had my desire for a while, and decided to root it about a month ago. I have now installed a custom rom, and I'm enjoying the fiddling around. I don't have too much knowledge, apart from experiences gained in the last week or so.
I tried talking a colleague into installing a custom rom, but he said there weren't too many for the Wildfire, so I said I'd have a play. I'm treating it as a learning curve, as I've always been interested in programming, but never really had the time. I have created a (very) small program for the Mac, and have written a few batch files but thats as far as I've taken it.
In an afternoon I've set up a Linux VM, installed all the needed software and had a play to see what I can realistically do. I see this as a first step. I'm trying to talk the wife into a Wildfire so I can have one to play with!
If the consensus is I should delete the thread, then so be it.

[ROM] GladiAtrix2 v4.2.3 (For 1.57 - CWM - Stable Release - 4/13/2011)

Update 05/10/2011: So, at this point I've just fallen too far behind the curve, and it doesn't look like I will be updating GladiAtrix any further. I'll still support v4.2.3 for 1.57 (which is pretty stable, and almost all the issues I've seen users have up to this point are the installation). I may at some point throw something together for myself to use and release it (as I don't care for the themes/mods of GingerBlur/GreyBlur), but at this point I'm doing all the mods manually and have no current plans to make a flashable zip out of it.

Looks horribly out of place I know ​
04/14/2011 @ 10:00am: Download links are fixed. Sorry all! As I stated in my last post, I will be unavailable for the next few hours. I DO see your questions and I WILL answer them. Please be patient, this isn't my full-time job and I have other things that need my attention today. Thanks!
04/13/2011 @ 11:17pm - NOTICE on theme: The THEMED version does not have reboot/recovery. I've been too busy working out the other kinks to add it in. The NOTHEME version is just like v3 and older, with the reboot/recovery options intact, as well as all the other changes up to this point. That is the only difference between the two.
All the bugs with the fingerprint scanner, wifi defaulting to on, custom keyboards not working, etc. etc. should all be resolved. Please PM me or reply to the thread if you have any issues.
Version 4.2.3 is going to be considered base from here on forward. It will create a backup of all the files it changes and copy them to the root of the internal SD card. PLEASE copy this backup to some place safe. Going forward, all updates will be released on top of 4.2.3, and will create sequential backups of any new files changed, if there's a need to back them up. It does not have any feature updates since 4.2.1, just many bug fixes.
04/13/2011 @ 11:00am(ish) - NOTICE on Reboot/Recovery power menu options: These are currently removed. I added a theme, and I haven't had time to add reboot/recovery options to it yet. If someone who knows what they're doing would like to add them and send me the updated files, it would certainly expidite the process as I'm not even sure how I got them working in the first place on v1-3. Screenshots will be in the second post as soon as I get a moment to upload some.​History and SummaryCWM finally released! Sorry for taking so long with it, I'm very picky about my work and wanted to test EVERYTHING and make sure it was all working as it was supposed to. I hope the extra effort pays off and nobody has any issues with this
I've removed the script version as there's no need for it anymore. CWM is safer and does everything we need it to do with the latest version.
This is only for AT&T phones running firmware version 1.57. If you have 1.52 or 1.26 please go here first: [SCRIPT] GladRoot (Bell 0.37.4, AT&T 1.26/1.52/1.57 Supported) If you are a Bell user, DO NOT INSTALL.
If you need the drivers, they are available here: 32-bit Drivers and 64-bit Drivers

Yes. There are 3 (I think?) points at which you have to allow superuser.
The user interface for the install is really well done.

there are a handful of boot animations here if anyone is interested. if there's something in particular you want, i'd be happy to give it a go. i too suck at the whole graphics thing, so i wouldn't expect too much.
Please pardon my ignorance, but a few questions:
1) I'm basically on stock 1.26 right now (rooted). Would I have to first flash/ota update to 1.57 (while retaining root and whatnot) and only then be able to install this?
2) or is 1.57 packaged within this and I just have to flash a clean 1.26, retain root, etc. and then flash this, thus updating me to 1.57 via this ROM?
I know they're somewhat silly questions, it's just that a LOT of what I've been looking for in a ROM lately is (almost literally) a one click to 1.57+root.
Thanks for bearing with me...and any kind of ETA on an RC? I see you were up until 5 putting this together, so thanks for your hard work.
This is after you have done retain root and updated and the afterupdate retain root.

You need a 1.57 rooted to proceed with this as it says in the OP. if you are at 1.26 rooted then use the retainroot in xda to get rooted on 1.57 and then use this.
Will this work on the Atrix on Bell?

there are a handful of boot animations here if anyone is interested. if there's something in particular you want, i'd be happy to give it a go. i too suck at the whole graphics thing, so i wouldn't expect too much.

I was looking for a custom one. I have a friend who's going to be whipping up some images for me, but you're welcome to take a stab at it.

This rom does not update you to 1.57. You will need to be on 1.57 with root before this will work.

I have a 1.57 w/ root (using before/after update script). Will Deodexing my Atrix make it faster/snappier?

If you figure this out please share how you did it.
I don't think that sound can be killed. But then again I'm no expert. Also are there any known issues with GladiAtrix?
I have it installed but can't really tell for now. Great great work man!!
Any chance of some screen shots of this theme? If we had CWM I would just flash and check it out.Thanks.

Ideas for a Custom Rom

Hello everyone,
I was reading all the posts about Custom Roms and I wanted to make something like an "XDA-Rom"... Maybe it would be better if I explain what I mean
Beginning from the system, I'd say it should be a very lightweight Rom (like the Gilgamesh one), so, without almost all the LG crapware. But I'd keep only few things of this softwares:
- contact manager (so far it's the best one I've found, but maybe because I lack of experience)
- keyboard (on some videos they say it's the fastest one, but I may be in error)
- LG home and Home switcher, so that we can keep the mirroring app working when needed.
Then, I'd add the last MoDaCo kernel (the ROM should be working in EXT4, if I understtod correctly, this shall make the phone faster), maybe we could make a proper boot animation, and just few app that are (in my opinion) the only really needed, like the gmail app, the calendar one and only the basic things. We could even update the baseband and root the phone directly from the rom, so that after a fresh install it's already running. I'd replace even the LG lockscreen, that is really nice, but it's too slow (when I switch on the screen, I see the home and then the locked screen, this shouldn't happen with the default lockscreen).
Ofc, any suggestion is welcome
Thanks for reading, and I hope my idea is not that bad
I agree on the bootanimation.
Only on that? d'oh, I wrote for half an hour btw, I'd add Root Explorer as default as well... but I don't know how to do, I mean, would be enough to create the ROM with the kitchen (really a nice tool!) and then edit the *img files adding the software I want in the /system/app directory? Maybe this is a noobish question, but it's the first time I even get closer to creating a custom rom
Oh, integrate BLN to have notifications would be a great idea ! (if you touch the kernel)

the root explorer is not for free.. so forget about this
Why? Install modaco and use filexplorer and delete all thing u dont want instead
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA Premium App
For the experience, I'd like to test
Just use the online kitchen...
I was actually 30 mins from posting a pretty close ROM to what you mention here yesterday, but built the one I'd like online instead (except for some tweaks I put in laster on).
If people is more open for a ROM like this for direct download, I'm happy to compile/maintain it Just thought that it wasn't needed...

libaudioflinger.so
libbluedroid.so
libbluetooth.so
libbluetoothd.so
libdvm.so
libhardware_legacy.so
libhtc_acoustic.so

libOmxMpeg4Dec.so
libOmxVidEnc.so
libskia.so
libstagefrighthw.so
libttssynthproxy.so
libwpa_client.so
AND added
libSFM_runtime.so
I am thinking some of them you might have replaced using either CM7 or AOSP GB ROM libs, right??
or you had to re-compile them. (how did you do CM7 or AOSP - i am thinking it doesn't matter right??)
And about libSFM_runtime.so, it is not there in salsa ROM, so it must be something that you compiled,
so what exactly does this do?? why is this required, as i didn't find any such lib in Tattoo ROMs
Does this lib codes any compatibility with other hardware gps, camera, bt??
Thanks very much for all the help you have extended so far.
Hi,
I don't know how can I help you with GPS.
Changed libraries were build using AOSP Android 2.3.3_r1 source code and toolchain. I
Code:
recompiled some of them only to change prelink address,
libbluedroid.so, libbluetooth.so, libbluetoothd.so due to different BT chipset,
libaudio.so, libaudioflinger.so, libhtc_acoustic.so due to different audio chipset,
libOmxH264Dec.so, libOmxMpeg4Dec.so, libOmxVidEnc.so due to different VFE, libraries were taken from another ROM,
libdvm.so, libjpeg.so, libm.so, libnativehelper.so, libskia.so, libttssynthproxy.so, egl/libGLES_android.so due to missing floating point instructions support in MSM7200A chipset,
libnativehelper.so - this lib overrides some of JAVA native functions (due to missing floating point instructions support), new functions are loaded from libsfm_runtime.so,
libwpa_client.so - different Wi-Fi chipset, starts wlan_loader service,
libhardware_legacy.so - hex edited only, bcm4329.ko changed to wlan.ko.

We can resize all after geting the ROM component working.Instead of using sense lancher for now, you can use lancher pro or other home replacement.

hmm it seems like it loads wlan.ko and we don't have that file
edit i now see whats wrong
sigh i've made a proper edit at start than i looked into modules folder and saw a tun.ko i just got to be it. then i edited it to tun.ko and i thought why not to be sure to check a working wifi loading driver? and guess what i did correct the first time -__- now i will soon see what will happen
Now i'm off to flashing
Yes i got a wildfire now
EDIT: When wifi works i'll be release a build, not for daily use but i need logcat
OK great i thought i failed hex the file so it didn't boot but it booted up, now i'll soon see if it works or not
Wooow a dream comes true?! Glad u work on it and welcome back
The last time I tested this ROM the launcher was really the only thing that was almost fully resized. And that DPI changing tried a Wildfire S dev and I think he didn't managed it. You should may have a closer look at KoolSense there the WiFi is working and also the Bluetooth works halfway.

argh this boot time, this boot time i say
ok i saw that there was something bad in the zip
wonder what could be wrong, hmm
Bad news guys recently I moved to my beloved girl friend and I was stupid enough to not take my work station with me.
I'm not able to work on this unless I use a hex editor on phone but I won't be able to try it. Also I can only provide lib files instead of whole rom so if anyone have a spare phone they can use to flash and try my changes it would be really appreciated until I don't have my mac i can't fix a edited boot image to make it work with cyannogen as base.
Also I'm getting my new s4 due to my note ii is being messed up. And I'm not sure I will get it on warranty (tried some things that won't be good for the phone) but everything is back to stock so I hope they may fix it
SORRY guys I'll work on it from cell when I got time.
Best wishes last
good news guys I'll be working on this again starting today or tomorrow depending on if i feel like it. sorry for the bad updates

Try changing the build prop to allow the firmware changes. That might be causing the conflict. You might have to build a whole new sense kernel to deal with the wifi and bluetooth. These are just theories though i am just a noob to android development. once my exams are over I will try to contribute to this project more but that isn't till the 14th June/

libs are from CM 7 hope that my help us, also i'm running on modified CM7 boot.img so there should be less issues with wifi

I reckon the wlan tools is some type of WiFi settings in sense 3.5. Like WiFi always on and stuff like that. Try looking at the official ROM they used to port and see if these files are in there. That might give you a clue. Glad to see you nearly cracked it.

[ROM] [4.2.2] Archos 80 Cobalt - CyanogenMod 10.1

CyanogenMod 10.1 working on the Archos 80 Cobalt!
This is oma7144's ROM, I've been able to get it running under a bit of guidace from oma and I thought I'd share it here if anyone else is interested.
The original thread is here - but this ROM is designed for Odys Genio tablet, which has basically the same specs as the 80 Cobalt. (RockChip 3066 chip)
As always, only flash if you know what you are doing, I am not responsible for anything you do or break.
New Version 1.3.4
Thanks danielo83 for putting this zip together
Oma CM10.1 v1.3.4
Battery problem fixed and ROM is now ready for daily use
- CWM 6.0.1.5 recovery
- System ext4
- Internal Storage 2,5 GB
- PhabletUI & Multiuser
- Device spoofed as Nexus
- Ethernet Support
- Init.d support
- USB-Hub enabled
- Gameloft compatible
- Gamepad (PS2, XBox, ...)
- Kernel modules (cifs, tun, lan, serial)
- latest hosts, su, su-binary, busybox
- MX Video-Player, Apollo & FX Sound
- Reboot Menue, CPU Tweaker, Pimp my Rom
- Dateimanager HD (Root)
- Trebuchet & Nova Launcher
Instructions
Before you do anything, download the file below and extract everything to your desktop, find 'Oma RK30 CM10.1 Format NAND.zip' and copy to your externalSD card
then unmount and remove the externalSD, this is very important because if you try to boot after flashing the rom, you will not have access to the internal SD - which means you can't flash files from CWM or do anything basically
Boot to bootloader
Turn off the tablet
Unplug from charger and USB
Hold the 'volume down' button and then hold the 'power button' to turn the device on and boot into bootloader, keep holding both until you see the boot screen
Connect USB and you will get "Unknown Device" message in windows
Install device drivers included in the zip below under x64 or x86 depending on your system - see gavroche's root thread if you are having trouble
Open up RKandroidTool.exe as administrator (located in RKDevelopTool_v1.35 folder)
- if you have trouble try different USB ports on your computer
You should see at the bottom of the RKAndroidTool "Found RK Android Loader Rock USB"
Click 'erase IDB' button - this will only take a few seconds
Now click 'Run' button, this will take a few minutes to install the ROM
Insert your external SD card
The device will boot into CWM, now choose install zip from sdcard (not internal), install Oma RK30 CM10.1 Format NAND.zip that you copied to your external SD earlier
Reboot, and enjoy CM10.1

...everything apart from mentioned below
Known Problems -
Scren flicker when rotating screen,
When battery is low the tablet wont wake up from sleep and the power button will only reboot it instead of waking it up
- Thanks to danielolsman
- To "fix" this you could install "no sleep" from the play store.

If anyone is interested in helping get rid of these three problems please don't be shy.
I'm not a dev and I'm looking at fixing the bugs but don't really know where to start...

kage00,
Thanks for your effort!!! You're breathing new life into our tablets. We (I am sure there's a very big community alongwith me) who have been waiting for this.
I don't have my cobalt with me right now but will try and install at some point and feedback how it goes.
Are you also willing to work actively on issues and improvements. I am happy to help wherever I can. Perhaps, others will join in as well.
Thanks
Looking at the forum feedback from HUKD, the rom is not far from being a stable rom for day to day use. I see following general issues raised with this rom so far
1. Waking up issues after deep sleep in case when the battery is low
2. Rotation issues
3. Default language
4. Nexus port and therefore certain apps incompatibility
As mentioned earlier, I am happy to help wherever I can.
Thanks
Hey nikunj87,
Thanks for your support! I would love to be able to work on the issues with this rom but to be honest, I'm not a dev, not even close, and I wouldn't even know where to begin to start fixing the problems.
For the moment I'm looking at putting together a kernel from Archos' source and adding overclocking, I've never built a kernel before so it's a learning curve... don't hold your breath, haha!
I just thought I'd post this rom here to see if we could get some interest in the project and maybe get a dev's (or two's) attention to take a look at the problems, but for the moment it's just you and me who are interested in this..
I think the best we can do is wait for an update to this rom from Oma (the original dev), as you mentioned all the problems with this rom on the cobalt are problems that exist with the same rom on other devices. So maybe with a new update it will work a bit better.
Unless if we can get someone else who knows what they are doing to take a look at it...

I just thought I'd post this rom here to see if we could get some interest in the project and maybe get a dev's (or two's) attention to take a look at the problems, but for the moment it's just you and me who are interested in this..
I think the best we can do is wait for an update to this rom from Oma (the original dev), as you mentioned all the problems with this rom on the cobalt are problems that exist with the same rom on other devices. So maybe with a new update it will work a bit better.
Unless if we can get someone else who knows what they are doing to take a look at it...

willing to lend a hand tho I am only new to this stuff as well!
I tried this ROM, it seems that OMA posted an AKKU Fix here
I will trie it soon....
There are some problems with the camera; its inverted. The provides fix did not solve the problem, does someone know how to fix it ?
Akku fix does not work

Cool! looks like we've got some attention from the devs!
So there is a new version of this ROM over at this thread
edit ----> please take note, if anyone tests this ROM you will need to keep the same kernel from the existing package in OP and use that to flash with new ROM, Otherwise you risk having a bricked device
Aparently the battery problem exists, but netlars has a possible fix on this thread if anyone can test it that would be great. My tablet is off getting fixed, I had some problems with the touchscreen.
Also Oma was asking if anyone could test this too
Are these paths there?
/sys/devices/platform/rk30-battery/startget
/sys/class/rk30_battery/rk30_battery_start_timer_work

If anyone can test and reply here please, then I can tell him on the other thread.
Thanks
Battery problem is solved (see original thread)
CM10.1 is now ready for daily use.
(@Kage00: maybe its possible for you to make a new zip package with the new boot image found here?)
EDIT:
made a zip package myself : CrewRKTablets_RK30_Cobalt 80 by Oma_CM10.1_v1.3.4.zip
Thanks danielo83,
Nice one, I'll update the OP,
I got news back from Archos repair about my tablet / touchscreen problem. They decided to replace the whole unit, so I'm going to sell the brand new one and get a Nexus 7, which means I won't be able to play around with this ROM anymore becuase I won't have the tablet. I'm happy to still keep the thread open and you guys can tell me if there's anything to update in the OP
Thanks

In the new version do you still have the screen flicker artifacts on rotate?

Not sure if anyone will see this but I own an unrooted/untouched Archos 80 Cobalt which I haven't used for months. Decided to dig it out for my son to play with but I can hardly fit any apps on it so looking in to alternative roms.
Came across this rom which I want to flash but I'm unsure on how to start. Do I have to root and flash CWM on to the tablet before doing anything in this thread or are the instructions in this thread all that I need to do in order to flash this rom on to an unaltered tablet?
Yes you will need to be rooted first before using this ROM, please follow this thread to get root and CWM on your tablet then you can flash this ROM with the instructions in the OP
Yeah the storage space is limited for some stupid reason on the stock ROMs, that shouldn't be a problem on this ROM, also if you find you dont like this ROM there is also another custom ROM here based on stock 4.0.4 firmware with better app storage space
the new version still has the rotate "problem".

I just wanted to say as well, that Archos have released kernel sources (downloadable from their website) that are from May or June 2013 from memory. The last stock ROM built for this device was released in February 2013. Which means if anyone wants to try their hand at compiling the kernel from Archos source, it would be a newer kernel than what you are using now and it could possibly fix any left over problems with this ROM. I don't have any spare time to do it anymore, but if anyone was interested I'm sure you could find a walkthrough on XDA to tell you how to do it easily enough.
The kernel for this ROM at the moment is still the stock kernel from the stock 4.0.4 ROM, which is working, but maybe if a newer kernel was made from the sources it may work a lot better
app space and vold.fstab
Does anyone know if this ROM exists with 6gb of app space? I currently have the supersport ROM with 6gb app space and edited the vold.fstab to swap the internal and external sd cards. I’d like to do the same with this JB ROM.
How difficult would it be to edit the ROM to change the app space?
Does this ROM use the vold.fstab to set where the internal and external sd cards are mounted? (I think this has been changed in JB 4.3 but I’m not sure about 4.2.2)
Cheers, T
To be honest I'm not sure if it is possible, but you could ask the devs who made the ROM they would probably be able to tell you if it was possible or not. Have a look over at http://www.arctablet.com
You'd need to ask oma7144 or netlars
You could try to post in this thread and see what they say

I'm using Windows 8.1 64 bit
I'm doing this with USB debugging enabled and the device switched on as this is the only way I can get the 'ARCHOS' device to show in Device Manager under 'Other Devices.
If I put the tablet in to download mode (power + vol down) I get a dead Android symbol with red exclamation, is this normal? However when I insert USB cable in to the device at this point my computer doesn't bring up the 'ARCHOS' device in Device Manager...
All I get then is this:
I don't actually have this tablet anymore, but I remember mine being a bit strange when I first tried to root it too. It can be a bit temperamental... I remember reading someone saying somewhere about leaving the charger plugged in when trying to reboot into download or recovery mode, if that doesn't work try with the USB cable (or both) plugged in while you try.
I also remember with mine I had to direct windows to the specific driver folder extracted from the zip based on which drivers you need, eg, x86 or x64 etc.
You could also look at this thread http://www.freaktab.com/showthread.php?3244-Archos-80-Cobalt-900-supersport-rom where the might be more info on root.
I'm using windows 7 though, so I don't know exactly what differences there are with win 8.
If all else fails just keep searching and reading all/any forums you can find about rooting the thing, I'm sure you'll find that someone has had the same or similar problem
good luck

Hi do you have any idea how to get XBMC working with this rom? XBMC just goes back to home screen whenever i try launching it?
For xbmc you will need an older version of it. The one from August seemed to be the one to use for most people with the same issues on the HP slate 7 so am guessing it will sort your issue too. A quick search on Google should locate the archives for you
