WARNING: Use this image at your own risk and i take no responsibility if
you brick your tablet.. Image has been tested on a Toshiba Folio 100 and works fine if guidelines are followed.

Weeds2000 gave it a go, and fixed the download of paid apps! im sure alot will be happy to read this.
Then i found another tweak in the screen driver, to increase framerate which currently was only 51. now its increased to 80.
on top of this, DerArtem is currently working on making it possible to use USB 3G dongles on our folio, so we can go online using the phone functionality in Android. I have for now, enabled some phone functions and activated the signal level indicator (might be annoying, but enhancement has a cost for now).
It also seems, that i by mistake had enabled locationservices in the build.prop, so at every boot the GPS, which we don't have, was enabled and caused an additional CPU load during a bootup. this is now fixed as well.
31.12.2010
the update pack includes some fixes for wpa_supplicant issue, where it did not switch to the correct adhoc wpa_supplicant.
and weeds2000 has brought a new update to the orientation so compass works, but mouse is still wrong.
lastly it fixes the sensor readings which made your tablet unable to rotate.
30.12.2010
A little more details on v1.3 update release..
V1.3 went through a public beta1 stage and issues were found and fixed where possible.
While fixing bugs in 1.3beta a 3D performance pack was found with the Viewsonic forum, and i tested it with our Folio, with changes as required to match our system. and it increased framerates. So that is now part of the new 1.3.
Furthermore the filesystem I/O performance bugs were found and fixed, and we now have a 330MB partition running on a loopback device, making database calls and small file changes much faster.
With the ElocityA7 i found the newest Flashplayer minor update revision, and of course replaced our Toshiba beta with the new one found.
Other users has suggested kernel tweaks which also has been added to the v1.3, one of them is the "swappiness" parameter, it is suggested to increase application handling on our folio and its now "live" in this release.
Sol Ido, provided us with the 0.3.4 edition of the FolioWidget, which includes a tricker enabler for switching between the regular wpa_supplicant and the wpa_supplicant for adhoc use also included in 1.3.
The orientation fix from weeds2000 is now default included into v1.3, but can be removed with a rollback patch found in the patches section in Post #1. it does have flaws like mouse pointer moves in "portrait" mode right now. compass should not be working correctly. but in general more apps utilizing the orientation/sensor is now working much better.
With FolioMod 1.3 a small milestone is reached, getting 3000+ in Quadrant score without actually cheating here
But of course Quadrant benchmarking is just one way of meassuring our device, CPU performance has not changed at all, so dont get too excited, but it does help in the overall experience of your tablet.

A little picture to document the problem with rotation on our tablet and other tegra2 tablets. click picture for better details.

as you see on the picture above, our tablet has native 0 degree in landscape mode where mobilephones got portrait native.. you can call this failure of nvidia, or someone else, but it seems that someone thinks this should be the standard.
if we can get the X and Y curve switched, we might just get it working normally.
12.12.2010
- Version 1.2 introduce use of the official patch installer from Toshiba which shows progress bar indicator movements on the screen, if recovery menu is not shown.
- Version 1.2 offers the newest toshiba update 2.5.0053 features, but which?
- BadStorm2010 managed to get a custom kernel compiled, which for adds support for ext4(future support),OpenVPN and cifs support, so you can mount filesystems over network.
- The FolioWidget offers control of your hardware buttons to have lights enabled and turns off only when pressed (good during evening/night)
- By failure of mine, the Vending.apk (Market app) included in 1.2, slows down the folio, so to enhance and fix it, i added a patch which adds the newest Market app to our folio with new design and way of selecting apps (actually is much better).
- as the framework is new, i tried to include all old features as 360 rotation , wma/wmv , Google apps + /mnt/sdcard location fix and other small issues.
- Paid apps still remain an issue with toshiba framework, only solution for you that want/need it, is to use the old 0.2 edition with nvidia framework.
29.11.2010
Currently the Toshiba edition 1.0b is having more issues than compared to 0.2a software wise. there is a freeze issues, and awake issues(solved,but fix is not released) and google paid apps cannot be downloaded.
So if you're ok without proper BT functions and usbstick unmounting, the 0.2a is probably you're best choice right now..
But if you need mouse/keyboard, usbstick proper unmount, 360rotation, the toshiba mod is the way forward.
I will try and get the freezing fixed, but more testing is needed..
28.11.2010
the Toshiba mod was created due to all the small differences in the framrwork with Bluetooth, USB functionality and sdcard card functions. Like on phones, vendors always do a little customization, which not always serves all users nicely when the image is modded based on other models. But now the stock rom is available with modded functions, so all should be happy now.
25.11.2010- on top of the above mentioned changes, here are some more regular info
- The new 0.2a still has USB stick/sdcard unmount issues, which is only part of the toshiba framework to handle for now. Im working on getting it to work on stock android.
- Increased the desktop sizing to 7 vert/horz , so more space for widgets and placement.
- media player extract image information.
- Wpa supplicant will not show signal strength for now, but im sure the better functionality might compesate for this.
(this has been tested with my Galaxy S running tetherAP function, and i could go online using my mobile connection)
Tested(v0.2a),
-Gapps,Angrybirds,Movieplayback(Yxplayer)+WMV/WMA, HDMI out, usb mass storage to pc, sdcard,usbstick, websurf+flash
- rotation , Market download, Power off,ad-hoc connectivity,.
I will test it now, downloading (very very slow :S), thank you very much for your work your are my hero

its very slow, because there is like 20 of us who are downloading the file at the same time.
well the one who gets it up an running first, please post a step by step for the noobs ( like me) and give some impressions how the device works with this first better rom!
Anyone is welcome to post mirrors, i dont needs credits for those.
Btw, im also uploading a stock mod for this folio..not sure it takes bandwidth, maybe too many mods on my hosting solution, as its probably busy somehow..
and we all know Folio100 is not THAT popular yet! so many is so much said
Downloaded but file is corrupt... re-downloading
Great , going to download it and try it ! Thanks

No problems with the Download here.
I installed everything through the System Update, but nothing changed at all. Do I have to perform a factory reset before applying the folio mod? (My folio is rooted, I tried to install some google apps and so on...)
The first line when applying the mod says "E: can't mount DEFAULT_PATH" - how about the others?
Anyway: thanks a lot for your work!
At some point you have to select "apply sdcard:update.zip" or something like that with vol - and (i think) power
For me it did a factory reset but nothing else, tried angry birds to see if anything had changed but nope.

i have uploaded to that site like 100 times, never had problems...
but yes, today the speed seems very slow even when im uploading, maybe its simply timeouts on your download so the zip gets corrupt.

Some people in http://forum.frandroid.com/topic/31757-foliomod-v01/page__gopid__526895#entry526895 who have tested your rom say also nothing changed at all...?
also for me nothing changed. Download and update work fine. After update I try to install Angry Birds but when I
run it I can hear the sound of the game, but I don't see nothing.
Is possibile with this mod install the Android Market?

are people using the "update.zip" inside the zip i released? or simply putting this one on the sdcard?
when installing it shows text, when HOME button is pressed this is clearly one way to confirm something.. just rebooting does not say much here..
here is another way:
- Reboot into "Firmware Update" menu.. (Press MENU to show actual recovery menu screen when booted into recovery kernel, after the "recovery logo" shows)
- Insert sdcard into slot, and move to "update firmware" second line.. and press power button to execute.
below you should see the information on steps taken..

well, it looks correct, so next question is; can you use adb? and login with shell and maybe extract the /tmp/recovery.log file?
if you got no root, just enter "rootme" and you should be disconnected from adb.
kill adb with "adb kill-server" and relogin with adb.
and you got root.
Is this correct?
power vol+
vol+ ->"continue factory data reset..."
vol- ->"continue system update"
vol+ ->"confirm"
when adroid appears HOME button
vol- ->"apply sdcard:update.zip"
power
then
"reboot now"
no need to do any wipe data/factory reset or wipe cache partition?
at the end I have
Finding update package...

Cool l33t Battery Mod
This is an AOSP ROM based off of CyanogenMod CM7. This means that it does not, and never will have, HTC Sense. Or any other HTC Sense applications, including, but not limited to, HTC sync, diag mode via the dialer, and all that stuff that involves being branded by The Ma.. I mean HTC
Some new features:
-updated build info
-new battery mod
-keyboards
-completely themed
-quicker than v10
-packed with apps for the appaholic

INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS for CM7EX_l33t:
Are you coming from CM7EXv10?
-if yes:
.........FLASH l33t ROM,reboot
.........FLASH BATTERY MOD,reboot. Easy-peasy.
if no:
........Nandroid your current setup, and backup your apps with appbrain or titanium
........Flash the 's_FORMAT_ALL.zip (attached), wipe data, cache, and dalvik-cache
........Flash rom (CM7EXv10)/reboot. Then boot into recovery
........Flash gapps/reboot. Then boot into recovery and do the "if yes".
*****Many of you have been having issues with the notification bar not appearing on the new ROM. I have found a viable issue for it.
If you haven't yet flashed the l33t version and are currently on v10, then it's easier for you. Install the attached adw ex launcher (if you don't have it already, google it/market buy it) and make sure notification bar is showing in the settings. Then follow the directions to install the l33t ROM.
If you are on l33t and don't have them, hopefully you have a nandroid for v10. If you do, restore backup and follow the instructions in the paragraph above. If not, wipe everything, flash v10, install adw ex, then do paragraph above's solution.*****
NOTE: If you NEED help with the ROM, just wanna talk about the ROM, or want to contribute to the ROM, go here, or join the chatroom. You can get to the chatroom by using a client like Xchat, Mirc, ect. If you dont have a client and want to use mibbit here is the link.

Yah, no go for me with GPS as well. The funny thing is, when I first installed Ex10 gps worked! I was so happy. Played with it all night. Then latter in the day (today) after I got things all setup gps stopped working..... I flashed like 5 times trying to get it to work again, no dice.
UPDATE: My GPS now works because of this:
You will need:
1. A 'sense' ROM currently running on your phone (I had Fresh 3.5.1)
2. MSL reader installed (get it from the market)
2. Have CM7 (build 17 worked for me) and the latest gapps (I used the ones from 2011-01-15) downloaded to your SD card
Steps:
1. Open MSL reader and get your MSL (jot it down)
2. Launch phone dialer and dial ##GPSCLRX#
3. It will ask you for your MSL, enter it.
4. Upon hitting OK, your phone will just say reboot in 10 secs, let it reboot.
Phew!
5. After it has rebooted, boot to recovery (i used clockworkmod 2.6.0.1)
6. Nandroid backup (if you are so inclined)
7. Wipe cache, Dalvik and then wipe data/factory reset
4. Flash CM7 b17 from your sd-card
9. Flash gapps
10. Reboot and walk through set-up. Your gapps will be downloaded from the market. Wait for all the downloads to complete.
11. Use GPS as normal and enjoy the GPS goodness!
Please note I did not write this, I'm just helpN to spread the goods!

Him hit a boot loop I guess. Flashed rom, reboot, loads then reboot into recovery, flash mod (VVM, HTC music) and now cyanogen (mod) keeps glashing on my screen. Any ideas what I did wrong?
Sorry guys. The all in one zip at the bottom of post three isn't compatible, just found out.. sorry for any trouble this caused you guys. Ragnarok is working on it.
To fix the bootloops, do a battery pull or hold volume up + volume down + power until reboot, then boot into bootloader by holding down volume down. Navigate to recovery and re-flash the ROM.

Yea the battery mod keeps kicking out an error at UOT as well. I tried to lad it earler and kept getting bootloops as well. OH well will wait for a fix
After flashing this ROM, I flashed the Gapps. Rebooted and now I'm stock where it says "touch the android to begin". I did it and nothing happens...
Well wiping fixed my problem with com.android.phone crashing. Everything is running well except Pocket Legends still doesn't work.

Also, does that format all zip format the sd card too ?

FEATURES
kernel is 2.6.29-perf, Cyanogenmod 7 Based (Gingerbread 2.3.5), overclock is supported (710 mhz max)
KNOWS BUGS:
- FM not working
- Wired headset not working during calls
- Wifi tethering is not working with built in method (settings -> wireless), but works well with the app from the market "wireless tether for root users"
- Camera is now working (thanks slk77) but buttons are not correctly skinned, minor bug
- Qrcode apps not working
- Usb thetering not working due to kernel limitation
Keyboard issues:
The main problem for keyboard is that there are different versions around of this phone with different keyboards...
In order to gain the same characters mapping as before you need to move back from the original rom the file named qwerty.kcm.bin located under system/usr/keychars in the same folder of the new rom.
The file that is now packed in the rom is the one from the italian version of u8300 that should be ok for european users. Other keyboard versions need their own file from the old eclair rom.
I'm packing some of the keyboard layout to help you with this, they are in form of zip update, flash them after the rom and remember to fix permissions!
- Thai keyboard update:

PREPARE YOUR PHONE
- Root the phone with z4root
- Install rom manager from market
- Install the custom recovery from rom manager, choose huawei ascend recovery
- Reboot into recovery and do a full backup of your current rom
INSTALL ADRENALIN ROM
n.b.: If you are coming from a previous adrenalin rom version I suggest you to wipe data and do a fresh install to avoid problems like bootloop or Force closes.
- Put the file Adrenalin.2.3.5.RC1.update3 into the root of your sd card and reboot the phone in recovery mode
- Choose wipe data/factory reset from the menu
- Choose "install zip from sdcard" and select Adrenalin.2.3.5.RC1.update3 from the menu, go on with the process
- Once done, reboot the phone and do the first boot, it should take 3/4 minutes
- Reboot the phone once again in recovery mode and again choose "install zip from sdcard", but this time select patches.zip and go on with the process
- Once done, do not reboot, but select "advanced" and then "fix permissions", it should take a minute or less
- Reboot and you are done

get rom manager, clockwork reco and finally i get 2.3 on my u8300 and it is working fine, it is really light and clean (how to install google apps such gmail, maps etc?)
some bugs at the first impressions (notice that i am a newbbie and this is the first rom i try on android, so some bugs aren't a real bug but depend from my incompetence):
cannot pull up the notification panel
cannot find screen alignment utility
can't find add new google account (only new email)
the in call screen is always in portrait mode (so it is rotated by 90 degrees)
this is a very best starting point for developing this huawei device.
i'll wait to test newer build
thank you very much for your efforts!
sorry for my english, if u need more detailed reports please contact me in pm, so we could speak italian ^^

thank you znial for your bug report
you can't pull down the notification panel because the touch is not aligned, and the main problem is that gingerbread don't use no more the tslib so there are not possibilities to align it manually trought a program. Align must be done by kernel side and this is so hard for me T_T but i'm working on it ^^
google apps need to be downloaded from market

btw, good news for the calibration method, a guy at google groups is developing a system to do the calibration
http://groups.google.com/group/android-porting/browse_thread/thread/d8ab71947bc96c6a/78fa66c89d0b5d99
but we will need to wait a bit I think...
For the Google Apps (and market), install this: http://android.d3xt3r01.tk/cyanogen/gapps/gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip
ty for the app for the app market ^^
You are welcome. I am doing some experiments with the rom.
As far as I've seen, the touchpad is working correctly in landscape mode. So it's a bit weird but it's still usable.
I like the idea of Gingerbread on this phone
u are right with market xD
I've uploaded the wrong release of rom -.- sry my fault... I'll add back market with next release
OK, i solved the Problem of the Google Apps.
Download "gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip" file to your computer and copy and paste into the SDCard root . Turn off the Phone and Boot in recovery mode "Press and Hold Green key + Volume+ and Power up all the same time" and select "Flash from SD card". Then you'll see "gapps-gb-20110307-signed.zip" and Select it. Install and reboot and done u'll see all Google apps.
1) does this rom supports "answer button" on wired handsfree ?
2) how much phone works (approx) ?
3) does barcode scanners works ?
4) can i mount card via USB without console\adb ?
i tried this swedroid.se/forum/showthread.php?t=40999 mod of CM7/2.3.3 & it got all this bugs now :-(
About the Notification bar the problem is no the calibration, i believe is the drag button is bugged, cuz u cant drag up or down,
btw i find a way to open it,
Go -> Menu -> Settings -> ADWLauncher -> General Behavior -> and chose Swipe Up or Down Actions -> and Open/close Notifications
I hope some genius solve this, but for now is better then nothing

This helps to improve battery life:
1º I always use it for WhatsApp 2G networks, mail, etc. spare me (and I polish the data rate in 2 days) which I do not care.
- Settings - Wireless - Mobile networks - (activated) Use only 2G networks.
2º Always sync manually Market, E-mail or contact (WhatsApp, messenger, etc does not care, are always active).
- Sync settings and accounts - (Off) Reference Data.
3° Off (default is active) GPS in the taskbar. (Where is the Bluetooth and Wifi.) Will make sure that security settings and location is only active Use wireless networks.
4º Inactive animations and screen brightness of the automatic.
5º I have the normal speed processor and 122Mhz minimum.
6º I use the Calibrator's Battery Market (following instructions) and the battery to 100%.
7° With these steps, I increase the battery life.
----- Installation with DarkTremor. -----We started the ClockworkMod, we Wipe data / factory reset, Wipe cache, then we enter an advanced Dalvik Wipe Cache and the battery is 100% Battery Status do a Wipe if we do not proceed to make ext3 partition. Advanced, partition SD Card, 512 or 1GB and select Swap 64MB (Remember that after partition the SD to copy the rom on the FAT), after doing all that, select the rom to install and expect to complete the process. Once finished the installation process, restart the phone and wait for it to boot the system.

Hi elitemovil,
thanks for providing another ROM. I highly appreciate your work here.
I'm just gonna test this new ROM and it feels smooth and fast.
2 things I recognized within my first steps:
Older Titanium Backup versions seem to have a problem to restore old backuped apps. An actual one works.
And I tried to use MyPhoneExplorer and for the USB Connection it needs the USB Debug Mode. I checked if I had a checkmark in the options-application-development and it was but I don't have an icon in the status bar for the debug mode and the synchronization via MyPhoneExplorer does not work: no USB connection. The normal activation of USB worked, I see a new disk in my explorer on the PC. Only the debug mode seems to fail.
Any hints?

Hello.
New optimized kernel 03_11_11 in first post.
Thanks.!
Super !
Hi elitemovil,
thanks for providing the new kernel.
I'm testing it for 24 hours now and I'm quite happy with it.
No Wifi issues anymore, really quick GPS fix (I was impressed), battery seems to last as long as e.g. Moldovan R5 does. It's stable, smooth (but I moved to ADW Ex because I personally don't like this vertical scrolling of the App Drawer in Launcher Pro). And the USB connection now works including Debugging mode. As a result MyPhoneExplorer is working now - super! I tried it with your configuration change you mentioned in your response to my question and this did not work for me. But the new kernel works like a charm.
So at the moment I'm quite happy with it.
I feel a bit sorry that you don't get this big feedback here because IMO Elite Blade_ROM s1.1 plays now in the same league as Moldovan and GSF (in the past).
One comment:
if you want to increase the positive reactions for your ROM I appreciate if you will build a release that includes the new kernel and (if still needed, I at least used it) the Wifi Fix. Otherwise as a hint for other users: store all 3 files on the SD card before doing the ROM flash. Otherwise you could get into trouble upload the fix and the new kernel to your phone because the USB connection does not work (at least for me it did not).
So I did it like this:
1. Copy ROM, Wifi fix and new kernel to your SD card
2. In Clockworkmode do a full wipe
3. Flash the ROM file
4. Flash fix and new kernel
5. Enjoy...
As a conclusion:
great work - great ROM, elitemovil. Thanks for sharing your work with us.

Welcome, This is My first page Photon OS ROM I uploaded, These ROM are based on Liberty ROMs. I modified it to work on HTC HD Mini Phones (Photon). This has Multi Languages support, It's Fast and smooth ROM for HTC HD Mini.
Most Things are working.
Known problems:
- Audio is Mono, means it doesn't have Stereo (Left & Right) Audio.
- Audio via Car's Bluetooth for Calling doesn't work only, but it's activated.
- Video Capture Recording doesn't stop, freezing for seconds then quits unexpectedly.
- Video Player is buggy, it plays videos fine at 240p but higher quality and above not very well.
- Sometimes USB cable doesn't wake automatically until you unlock the screen, Checking the (Stay Awake) in Settings is recommended.
- with some small other bugs,
Note: You have two options about Wifi & GPS, (You should install it after Phonerty Installed at CWM Recovery)
1- if you want Wifi, you will have to choose +Wifi-Photon, this will make Wifi work normally. but you won't have GPS.
2- if you want GPS, you will have to choose +GPS-Photon, this will make GPS work, and Wifi will work But connecting to network by Wifi may cause your CPU Clock at 100%, surfing internet by this once will be okay for about hour. and after that you should Turn Off Wifi and Restart Android.
By default the ROM is set on +Wifi-Photon. save those +two files on SDCard.. and you can always choose whatever time you need it.
Tip: Some Devices may have audio issue while calling person, So just tap on Speaker Button two times while in Call.
With 3rd Party Apps, you can Record video by using Videocam illusion Pro, and for Radio you can use Spirit FM. or find another apps that works.
It's Better & Recommended to Partition your SDCard using CWM Recovery in Advanced menu (this will erase SDCard completely) & to have a lot of space for many reason. choose 1GB Size, and Swap size 32MB. or whatever you like to be. and then Install/Open app "Link2SD" to active your Second Partition ext3.
This is only for installing on NAND, SDCard test not available.
- Note: Backup your Important Files, This may erase your Photon's Partitions automatically, also it may delete the "Android" folder with ".android_secure" folders on SDCard if include.

2- Installing Recovery, In the Phone WM6.5, Open Explorer and navigate to SDCard and touch at HaRET, or if you're on another CWM Recovery, Restart & in White HTC press & Hold Volume Down until you're in FastBoot Mode, You should be in Fast Boot Mode to Install Recovery both in WM6.5 or others, Connect the USB cable to the PC (it may ask you the Divers needed for the device) and the Drivers are in the folder in "LK Boot - Photon" in "Google Windows USB driver" folder. After that click on “Update.bat” and Install both of them, when it’s finished fine try reboot it.
3- Installing the CM9 ROM, On HTC Boot Screen White Press and hold “Up Volume” the phone until you see entered Recovery, So in Recovery *, Go to (Install from SDCARD), then (Choose zip from SDCard), and now you're on the microSDHC, so choose the (Phonerty ROM) and choose Yes- Install, Wait about Minutes and it should be done, and then reboot the Phone.
Remember to Install the Google Apps after the OS installation completed, or you can also reboot Android to come back to recovery by press & holding “up volume” phone’s on HTC Boot Screen and choose the "Install from SDCard" and then "Choose zip from SDCard" so choose the Google Apps to Install, done and reboot.
* Make sure that you Wipe your Phone & format manually the Boot, Cahe, System, Data, by Recovery. only be careful that you don't format your SDCard at Recovery time.

"Finally, you're ready to go Android. Have a nice try.."
The ROM is based on (WinSuk's 5 November 2012 Liberty CM9.1 ROM)
Kernel Source is made by Munjeni and Derefas, Kernel Link, or click this Link for more informations.
Themes,
As a Tip, Don't do that, only if you're tired of the CM9 theme or you've backed up Nicely.
You can simply Download the CM9's Themes on the Web. but it's not easy as MIUI, and at this stage it can be risky too (specially CM10 and above are risky), if you do wrong things, your phone may restart and wont reach android Boot... so you have to reinstall Android or the User knowledge knows to do. Do a backup before doing this, and if you lost your control on Android, your datas wont erase but you have to connect to computer and doing uneasy things.
All you have to do is active the Theme in CyanogenMod Theme chooser's Settings, And this a tested Theme by myself on my HTC HD Mini, iPhone Theme, Enjoy with Cyanogen Themes.
Soon I may add more Themes.

1- Sorry, I'm only on 2G Network, So I can't know how is it with 3G Black Screen Call Problem.
2- Battery Life is Perfect, just like Munjeni's Latest Photon CM9 ROM.
Edit; 3G Black Screen is Fixed now!

Like as I said as above: I edited it to work better on HTC HD Mini.
for example: Camera is Perfect both Preview and Save Image. also Camera360 works fine when you go to Camera360's Settings and check the Compatible Hardware Mode, it's Liberty Device, etc.

I'm stuck on the CM9 boot animation. I was running SCREAM CM7 before so I wiped the caches and formatted data, boot and system mounts but its still stuck on the boot animation. Been there for over 10 mins now.
Any ideas?
I am testing this rom yesterday. but I have a problem. I dont understand but I think this rom's battery life is not good. because I full charged the battery and I started to wait. last 8 hours I did not anything. no call no sms no internet no anymore. only open screenlock for the battery level control. now the battery level is 60%
I think munjeni's cm9 battery life is better than this rom
Found something in [email protected] commands for gps, but you need to try if it will enable gps! For this procedure you need to comunicate with radio!
Procedure is:
You need 2 window opened at same time. First window:
Code:
adb shell
stop rill-daemon
In seccond window:
Code:
adb shell
cat /dev/smd0 &
Back to first window again:
Code:
echo 'ATV1' >/dev/smd0
echo 'ATE1' >/dev/smd0
echo '[email protected]' >/dev/smd0
In seccond window you will see response from radio something like "start gps ok"... If gps message was ok, close seccond window and back to first window:
Code:
killall -9 cat
start rill-daemon
Close first window and... let me know if gps working! For info I have done new version for Aria and will upload it today to aria forum!
thank you I can not understand. I did it what you say .
result : I did not saw any message in second window from radio ?
I'm not sure I made the right
Ok, so its something liike not supported on photon

I'm still using schlund's CM7.2 and GPS works like a charm.
Maybe I can help with some logs, etc.?
Or CM9 is much different then CM7?
Sound got better since it's a consistent aria rom now? DSP working by any chance?

Hi munjeni,
I am new user of XDA Developers. I am not permitted to post in your thread or theard by iPlasm - new USER :-( .
I tried exchange gps files between ROM by iPlasm (YOUR modified ROM) and ROM - HTC HD MINI Sense 3.5.
Copy files from Sense 3.5 to iPlasm ROM: gps.conf, gps.goldfish.so, gps.liberty.so, gps.photon.so and libgps.so
Now, my phone see satellites. I tried navigation... OK! )))
I didn't want hack HD Mini Sense 3.5. Only try something to do.
I wrote similar message to iPlasm.
I hope that it is good for your and iPlasm develop.

Hi guys, This message was sent by new user that is not allowed to post in development forum, so he say he got gps working using these libs! These libs is from old SDK so I think there will be (maybe?) segfaults! After you replace libs, and if gps realy working you need to look in logcat to be surre that if there is not a problems!

Still hoping someone can help. I wondered if it might be my SD Card which is and 8 gb SD HC. Backed up all my data, formatted it, copied the ROM zips back and reflashed. On first boot, same story; I'm stuck in the boot animation. I'm running CWM 5.0.2.7 and I've repeatedly flashed CM7 ROMS so I don't think its a CWM issue.
Is there something I need to do prior to upgrading to CM7?
Any ideas at all?
sorry friends, I was too busy in this three days... anyway let me answer

draltus, before this three days, I fully charged to 100%, and after three days taken some pictures and battery percentage 13% at night, I can't get that even in WM6.5, so I don't know how was that with you.?

yes, he write to me also, and I will see it then upload new ROM it here.
another thing Munjeni, I tried your new Aria ROM [9 July 2012], but it stuck at the Boot screen, I can see the new Cyanogen Man Logo.
-----
ELdaArk, did you installed the new LK boot from munjeni?
I think maybe boot.img need to be repacked, or at least maybe not enought space for system? Try adb shell df and see how many free mb is in system partition!
