Not trying to be rude or anything but, did u google it? i thought i saw a lot of pages. i am not sure if ur model is the "Motorola XT800", then you can just use universal androot. btw here is the link to that page: http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/how-to-root-android-devices-with-universal-androot-app/
no prob, i'll appreciate every little answer for my q above. it's not a matter of lazy for googling, but i just believe in xda.
everything are well organized here, as i have made my optimus one become greater than before using xda.
Thx buddy...
*sorry for my poor english...
You can also try SuperOneClick. I don't know what software runs on XT800W, but Universal Androot doesn't work in most official 2.2 and later releases.

[Q] How to increase vibration duration of soft keys
HELP!
I have Motorola Glam XT800W running MIUI.1.5.27.Ko Android 2.3.4 and I love everything about it except the limited personalizing options.
My main concern is how do I increase the vibration duration in pressing the soft keys? They are set so low that I can barely feel it.
Another is my notification led lights are not working at all, its not that its defective. I think it has to do something with the rom. How should I fix this?
Is there a way that I can upgrade my phone to MIUI 4.0 ICS? Please advice. Thank you very much!

Check this link, http://blog.naver.com/seh2000/20152786022. CM9 (ICS) update for your phone. It's already in RC0 release.
I have bought a UMi X1 from china, am in UK and using giffgaff sim... being playing with the phone since yesterday .. managed to get the internet working by putting giffgaff APN manually, tried to install custom ROM, but all in Chinese, even after you change the language there are still things left in Chinese, so i went back and installed the original ROM phone had. changed the language... phone is quite good, i like the screen and speed is very good as well.
managed to install other apps like Google map, chrome, Skype, and some game.. all work good, but when ever i install them some Chinese permission thing comes up, which i don't understand, but i think i keep clicking green tick and it works
I managed to root it using "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460" tried super user and it works (not sure what benefit i get from rooting, sorry am a noob)
I followed instruction for custom roms from "http://www.gizchina.com/2012/10/28/download-install-umi-x1-custom-rom/", still all Chinese.
if any one have a question regarding this phone usage or any other information they required am willing to answer from my experience of this phone.
I would like to know if any one would be willing to develop a clean miui English ROM or jelly bean for this device? or any one willing to help me to develop a ROM ( would need alot of help as i don't know single thing about developing, but keen to learn).
Hi !
Sorry to not answer to your request but i have one question about this phone that i want to buy. The camera is good? In reality it's a 5MP no? Because it's hard to find review about this phone, i know that is a good phone but nothing about the camera. Sorry for my bad english and thanks
UMI X1 roms
I'm also looking for information to root . But also need a rom . Have you got Clockword mod recovery installed ? Please can some one help us to install CWM recovery to UMI X1. Can we use any other rom developed for other MTK6577 phones as this phone also has MK6577 processor.
Any one interested can look one of first article on this topic in English here . Search gizbeat custom rom in google
For a review and video of phone see following: search in google: exclusive-umi-x1-unboxing-and-hands-on

yea, i have done so much to my phone in 1 day, i used shuame tool to install custom roms but kept getting errors, so i installed it manually by going into recovery mod. i installed CWM through google play, but dont know much how to use it, by the looks of it, it not supported with this phone yet. i am on gizchina aswell and asked same question there aswell.
looks like no one is intrested....
how to get some one attention on this?
finally there's a thread about umi (youmi) x1 on xda-dev
i haven't received my phone yet, 7 days using EMS and still in BEIJING seller said because China held presidential election ? so security tighten

there's also rom link on shuame.com but i don't know wether it's also had english language or not , there's also a custom rom for x1 at lewaos.com
I have received my Umi x1,love it but having real trouble flashing the Umi rom,still cant give up.Hoping others will buy phone with more intelligence than me and post,fingers crossed.
I used this method to ROOT:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460
I tried about all the ROMs from Shaume.com
Without keeping track of procedure.. did a lot of flashing and factory reset
I don't know any chinese, so i just pressed buttons with icons I thought would do the job (with the risk of doing something wrong and brick the phone)
There are a few mods wit CWM, so once that one is installed flashing is pretty straightforward.
I'm having trouble to get a GPS fix (the Netherlands).
After trying many different gps.conf files (/etc/gps.conf) and different apps (GPS Status, GPS Test, GPSFix), Manually download EPO files..
Result: 1 time GPS fix with GPS fix.. but thats it
Anyone a bit more luck with the GPS fix?
Something that might be handy:
Boot into recovery: turn off phone first -> hold volume up and then power on phone. release both when UMI logo shows.

Will get mine tomorrow, it's just cleared customs. I'll probably do a custom ROM too, but it might take time as I'm having exams till the 26th of this month.
Also, I suggest OP to change the title of this thread to '[discussion] UMI X1' or something like that. Thanks.

hello everyone, i'm really sorry if i posted this thread in the wrong forum but i'm a little lost here
i got my p920 last month and i'm desperate about this battery but i fell in love with it!
it's like having a ferrari with a 4 gallons tank capacity!!
so i tried searching for a new firmware that improves battery consumption ,faster and better interface.
but every thread i found talking about new firmwares but with bugs like inverted camera and what so ever.
so my question here:
is there a completely bugs free new firmware for this phone?
and btw i'm new to android OS ..i could barely root this phone, can i fix it if it's bricked or if i made something wrong ?
thanks in advance
First welcome to our forum , I hope you find what you need . And thank you because you posted in the right section .
If you want a better battery life with performance (No any bugs) . Root your phone ,, install recovery ,, then install a custom ROM and Kernel .
My advice is the " Prometheus Project " ROM and kernel .
See the development section .
BUT YOU MUST FLASH THE 2.3.5 BEFORE .
Here is the link :-

Good Luck

Tried everything possible, and though battery is excellent when NOT connected to either wifi or 3G, this is the option I took and very very happy with it.

porting is later but you should know to cook rom from kitchen
I thought S7500's was the same case as S5830's regarding the "L" thing...
In S5830L it means it's distributed in Latin America, but hardware is the same as S5830. The official CM for Galaxy Ace (cooper) is for S5830. I still have S5830L, installed CM on it and it worked. Only thing is, it changed the device name from S5830L to S5830. And also I asked that because since I live in Latin America the only Ace Plus I can get is S7500L.
Are you actually porting from Xperia instead of building?
And where can I find the S7500L kernel repository you ask?
thats change in build.prop u can make again L
and without kernel mods it may work on ur mob
So, if this ends working all, can you make one for S7500L? Or can I just use the current one one for L?

hey i said 100 times im releasing a rom based like xperia
you get me huuuh
its not cm10
cm10 later will take much time
update im taking a risk im gonna create a kernel that has posiibility to boot as well as brick
will update again in 2days
Since Mini 2 is running on the same chip, the kernel for Mini 2 is also compatible with Ace Plus. I just needs an updated defconfig.
Someone on Ace Plus do:
Code:
adb pull /proc/config.gz
Upload the file somewhere and post the link here. I will make a defconfig so you can build kernel.
ohh thanx bro
wait for 2 days
as my modem is off

noo
What "official sources" do you need in order for CM10 kernel to support overclocking? (I could use my time to look for it since I'm just a useless user....)
That'd be an almost imperative feature, and if you say "make it yourself and f*** off", well, sorry for not being developers like you (registration on this site should be restricted to dev-only...); or also that's why you *are* the devs and are announcing this possible work so we are indeed allowed to expect things from you...
Or, sorry for not being A D U L T devs like you. I can't express what I think about most of adults (most, not all) here because of the forum rules......
Thanks.

well overclocking is possible
we will look into it later first we are trying making kernel stable
and control yoour self

thats not possible because we want to boot perfectly (thats possible when we make a kernel with no tweaks and few mods)
There is still any dev for janice? :silly:
As some of u know, Google is going to release Android Go based on 8.0/8.1 which should work fine on 0,5GB devices, maybe second life for janice?

I understand, don't worry. :good:
I am disposed to take part in the collect, considering how much as now an s advance costs, wouldn't be so hard to get quickly the money and with very little effort for all.
I think that is a good idea and can really give a new life to our device.
Obviously a spare s advance of a willing and generous user would be the best thing we can hope in, but seems really hard to happen, however, my hope isn't died yet
Maybe on weekend i'll look into what changes are needed to run atleast nougat on it (from source), if this'll work then we'll think about Oreo xD

If you're really interested, I'd suggest to look at the Oreo rom of Chrono:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-ace/ace-2-develop/rom-lineageos-15-0-t3678722
and to look at the Chrono Kernel (compatible with janice but with some bugs):
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...tom-kernel-t2793420/post74179403#post74179403
Ace II has the same chip of S Advance (with some code differences) and the dev is very helpful to explain how it works.
Two guys in the same project would be better than one guy on a single project.
As far as I know @sm_adil doesn't reply to any PM and Epirex is busy on his Moto phone.

Yes I agree two or more dev contributing to the same project will be good!!
However if you consider me as fully fledged dev you're wrong I'm more of web developer than android or java. I did build couple of kernel's for testing my skills but than again they were not so stable and I didn't had time to debug it!!
So yeah if get the time I do want to build a ROM for Janice :fingers-crossed:
I've got a Janice right here that I don't use. I'm actually looking right now for a way to root it and install whatever superior than the Gingerbread ROM it currently has, but the point is that it's available for testing purposes. Btw, is it possible to leave a phone number here?

Hi Isaak,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S Advance. I have been looking if anyone developing Android Go support for it. Found your post on the thread, https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s-advance/general/android-t3714953/page2
I want to learn how roms are built and I would like to support in developing Android Go rom for S Advance, if possible. Can you please guide me where I can start?
As per my experience, I have built a modified linux kernel with some modified device drivers and was able to boot it with a debian root filesystem on Freescale SabreLite board. But never built an android rom earlier.
Thanks

You could start from one of these tutorials:
https://nathanpfry.com/category/android/
I'm not good at compiling, I tried it and didn't like it. So I can't help you more than that.
For this reason, with the help of some xda users, I have donated a S Advance to @ChronoMonochrome.
Currently he's actively developing a new kernel and a new rom in this section:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s-advance/development
I think we could expect more roms with higher android versions, so your feedback is important.
