:::EDIT:::
FROM Orrebmas himself
Hi,
I was told and verified that the donate button does not work in the version I released. I fixed and re-uploaded it to android central. Please update your post.
Thanks for bringing it to XDA.

I have updated the app to the new updated version with the donate button working!
http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc-evo-4g-rooting-roms-hacks/63799-fullhdmi-official-fullhdmi-beta-discussion.html ----BETA Thread Discussion thread made by Orrebmas
http://forum.androidcentral.com/htc-evo-4g-rooting-roms-hacks/35955-evo-hdmi-out-mirroring.html---ORIGINAL THREAD
Thanks to Orrebmas over at Android Central there is a working BETA version of the FULL HDMI for EVO.
All,
It is here finally, FullHDMI "limited time" public beta is attached in this post. This version is to mass test the app and get feedback before the next step.
I will be making an announcement later today about the beta and its purpose, but for now I am attaching it and going to get some sleep. You will need the Kernel posted several pages back on this thread to enable some features, and root. I just realized that non-root is broken as of this version.
Some of the things you need to know about before tinkering with the app, pasting quickly:

Most TVs have multiple options for aspect ratio. For example, zoom, hourglass, etc. Just make sure this setting is set to fill the screen.
I am not saying that is the case for all of you, it just was for me. Once I changed the setting, it filled the screen perfectly without messing with the X Y resolutions.

1- To achieve hardware acceleration, video memory (minimal) has to be used. Some poorly coded programs that also use video memory will try to grab a hold of the entire memory block instead of the available. This will cause them to crash when you are in hardware mode reserving a small block of memory to yourself. The only application that I found to be doing this is, strangely enough, HTC's Gallery (specifically video playback mode). Gallery video playback will keep trying to acquire the whole video memory, put the phone in a tight infinite loop doing so and eventually force close (after about 40 sec).
Compatibility or software mode does not use video memory and is safe to keep on while launching Galley video playback. Compatibility mode also does not make use of the "supercharged" feature, custom res or fullscreen mode.
2- FPS: Your frames per second will not be the same as on your phone. This is because the app is designed to keep the phone as primary display and output a secondary to the HDMI port. You are also outputting, most likely, a 1280x720 pixels which is almost ~2.5 times more the normal output. So in total you are pushing 3.5 lcd size screen worth of pixels (phone lcs + hdmi). Things can be improved if we freeze the phone display, but that wont be mirroring (maybe a feature in FullHDMI 2). Expect, however, to get more FPS in 3-D games (I get upwards of 40 fps on Raging Thunder 2) than 2-D sine he 2-D engine does the mirroring.
3- Lag: Some TVs (like Insignia) use an image enhancing and noise reducing engine. This extra processing puts the TV about half a second behind the phone making games unplayable by looking at the TV only. Watching movies is fine since nobody cares if the phone is a little faster than the TV. On this Insignia TV, I had to go in and turn off two image enhancing and noise reducing features, and now my phone and TV track together. I know Sony has its own engine, I do not know if the extra processing there introduces lag. I have two other TVs with no lag issues, but then they don't use any image enhancing engines.
Again, the app should not lag in mirroring, if you experience any lag then please check your TV and share your observation with us.
4- This app was not designed to display youtube or other apps that already work over HDMI. To use such apps you should stop FullHDMI from driving the HDMI signal first.
ENJOY
iF YOU DECIDE TO THANK ME FOR POSTING THIS UP, I APPRECIATE IT BUT NOT NEEDED..I DID NOT DEVELOP THIS APP IN ANY WAY, JUST POSTED IT FOR YOUR ENJOYMENT.

IMPORTANT..YOU WILL NEED TO UNZIP THE FILE YOU DOWNLOAD THEN THE KERNEL AND APK ARE IN THERE TO INSTALL!!! You will only need to do this for the RAR file. if downloading from a phone look below
I also uploaded the APK and kernel for everyone on top of the rar file so they can just do it on there phone also. So from the phone download the apk file and the zip file. place those on root of sd card and your good to go. Just boot into recovery and install kernel.
Very cool, but what kernel?

the Original developer said its based off a Netarchy kernel. he didnt specify. i posted to find out which one in specific and when i find out i will post the info up.
when it loads up in your phone it says
KERNEL
2.6.32.15 [email protected] #1
Great post. I guess we will see how this is received now. I must tell you that the mods here tell me that do not not like the spirit in which they say this app was developed . I hope this thread does well to inform people of this type of app and its uses... I also hope those who are against this app being discussed here can refrain from posting and just wait for the dev that they like to come up with their own app that is actually out and available to be tested and used .
I have been using the app for a week or so and am very impressed to say the least . Watching movies wherever j go from my phone has been most awesome.

yea i saw the other thread..i would have posted in there but it was locked. I only posted this Up because he had officially released it to the public and didnt say exclusive to any site. PLEASE tho mods if you dont like this thread let me know. Thanks.
Yes this app can have benefits in many many ways. i opted to wait for this version as the last release was not supposed to be released. I havent had the chance yet to use this app as my hdmi cable should be getting here either today or monday at the latest.
FOR EVERYONES SAKE PLEASE IF YOU DONT HAVE ANYTHING NICE TO SAY PLEASE DONT POST IN THIS THREAD. WE DONT NEED ANY DRAMA!

This i am not sure of as i only have a sense based Rom. I remember a lil while back that someone said it would work with only Sense Roms on the original Thread but dont take my word on this one. I would suggest testing it out to find out. of course make sure you backup incase anything happens.

I agree. I think overclocking may help with performance.
does this make the hdmi work on ay type of tvs now? coz my phone wouldnt work with my sony tv but works on newer tv.
Thanks!!! Will try this now!

Hello there. Since saturday evening I'm working on oPhone port. I'm porting from oPhone SDK which is free to download from there
Code:
http://www.oms-sdn.com/
you only need to register.
EDIT (7/7/09 - 17:25):Hey, sorry for "inactivity" but I was working on it but I've updated only my twitter (@detoxcz). I've skipped radio initialization so now you can play with it a lil more. Graphics issue still persists
Get it here: http://www.mediafire.com/?nwdxbmixjm0
EDIT (18/6/09 - 17:18):l Okay, another news. I'm releasing the latest update.zip. Now you can swipe down notification bar and play with it. Graphics issue still persists. I'm workin on it.
Latest build, take it or leave it.
EDIT (17/6/09 - 18:09): We have an update. I won't upload it but now the screen can go black and when you hit Menu you will get to lockscreen (but there is still that crazy graphics issue) and you can see the blue ring (actually, due to graphics issue it's only moving rectangle). Screen is now reacting, when it's dim (not fully black, only dim) and you will tap on it, it will get brightness as before.
EDIT: Some news. I've tried flashing my latest version into G1 and then nandroid. These files I've copied to dir where oPhone emulator images was. I have used mine ramdisk.img, system.img, userdata.img but not the kernel. It works, phone works but can't get trough "Searching SIM Card" dialog (that should be the touch screen block at G1) and when I have done screenshot in DDMS it's same as DDMS from G1. So I'm not sure what the reason for this graphics issue. My personal tip is, that it's kernel with the drivers. I have also tried to copy this (nandroid-ed images from G1) into images forder of regular SDK (not the oPhone one) and phone didn't even start. I'm attaching screenshot with DDMS and emulator.
I already have first test version. It's only for testing because it won't boot properly (in logcat you can see the system is running but no display feedback).
You can get it here
Code:
http://www.edisk.cz/stahni/69148/update.zip_77.28MB.html
(I will upload it on odther sites too)
You WILL need haykuro's new SPL (same as for Hero)
Reason why I'm releasing this is, that I want anyone who can to help. Please try to find out bugs and solutions and write to me and I will do new update.zip. I'm working on it right now but getting even worse than before.
So thanks for your help and advices
PS: You can write me mail: [email protected] or ICQ/AIM: 278-783-808
EDIT: New version is out. It's still only testing version but now it boots and you can see it booted in Home application. From now you can't do anything, you can yust switch out your keyboard and it will animate to landscape and back when you will switch it back. I'm trying my best to get you fully workin' oPhone ROM.
Get it here:
Code:
http://www.mediafire.com/?uimitlz3pr4
and screen from ddms (it's nicer than in device)

it will not boot at this time dont flash lol
Yep, if expecting booting to Home screen i have to dissapoint you. What this do is, that it's booting and booting and booting and there is issue with Video drivers or somethink like that. But when it's booting, you can connect it by ADB.
I think one of the biggest hurdles we are going to come across is driver support on the G1. Rumor that Haykuro had it running on his G1 could have meant recovery console...etc. The Hardware is pretty different on the Lenovo oPhone. I don't think just pushing over some libraries and some .so's are going to do it. I can only assume it will take possibly a recompile of the kernel in order to run on the G1's Hardware.

Yeah, for the meantime I think I'll just stick with playing on the emulator.
The home screen is really the only thing I found so far that makes this an OS I'd like to flash. Personally I think the Rosie UI is a bit nicer.
I do like the ability to have up to 9 screens though.
no this ophone runs on the htc magic which is close to our phone there is a pic of it some where and htc is releasing it this month

Well I agree with you that it seems unlikely that we'll be able to use the full ROM as is, but it seems like we should be able to cannibalize some of the libraries/apks.
Haykuro already ported this, someone might wanna contact him!
Quote from his Twitter page:"no i don't have an oPhone. just got hold of the SDK (openly available http://www.oms-sdn.com/ here) but i DID port the image to the g1
7:06 PM Jun 12th from web"
http://www.twitter.com/haykuro
here is the pic in case any one was curious but its been posted for a while so most of you have probably seen it
i just sent haykuro a tweet asking if he would ever release his port or to atleast tell us what he did to get it working. Is there a way to set the os to english instead of chinese in the emulator.

THIS ROM IS STILL IN THE ALPHA STAGES!!!!
Here's where you can download the most recent version:
Honeycomb Alpha V0.5.8
Very few things work in this rom, but for good measure here's the list of things that DO NOT work:
Data
Camera
SDCard
Gps
Calls
Battery Status
[ALT] and (hardware) key
Screen Colors (red=blue/blue=red)
App FCs
Original Honeycomb port for the OG Droid thread started by R2doesInc:
Here
======> I TAKE NO CREDIT FOR PORTING HONECOMB TO THE OG DROID
I've put a lot of time and effort into trying to modify R2doesInc's version of HC to function better on the OG droid. There are a lot of problems and I have a small understanding of that I need to edit or replace to get some of them working, but as anyone who knows anything about computers, partial wont work. If anyone is interested in helping, please post here or shoot me a PM.

There was never really a problem to begin with. All you have to do is touch anywhere you can type,

I have my gf's old inactive Droid to play with, and I want to make it into a media device (wifi internet, mp3, games, etc) so this would be perfect for what I want to do with it. I would be more than willing to donate for an operational HC port to this tired, but still good, old device. All I would need is wifi, charging, and usb/pc connectivity. The rest is bonus.
Edit:
On a side note, I don't have much/any real experience with Android development, but I do have some knowledge of programming. I downloaded the SDK and other develpment items a while ago to try, but didnt dive in much. If you would be willing to work with a newb, I would be more than happy to give a bit of time to the cause...

I'm currently working on the USB interface and let me tell you, its a tough nut to crack. I've done some research on it and it seems that there is some bad news (possible delays for a HC USB patch) and some good news (a glimmer of hope in the fact that some other devices have gotten USB functionality). I'm still looking into it, but for now, the only things that I know need to me modified/replaced are '/system/etc/vold.fstab' and '/system/bin/vold'. If there are any other files that I may need to edit or add, anyone, please let me know.
As for the donation part, I don't really deserve donations for what I'm doing. R2doesInc is the one that did all of the work in porting this to the OG Droid. All I'm doing is modifying it to give it more functionality.

I don't mind working with a 'newb' as I too am a newb to the development of roms. I've already learned a lot about working with roms and editing files since I fully dove into working on this. What I need you to do is PM me and I'll give you a basic run down of what I've done (so you can have the same changes made to your copy of OMHC), some notes on what files I've worked with and a list of files that I know of that are connected to each problem. Who knows, by the end of this project we may both be considered devs.
What you need to do is go the R2doesInc's original thread (link in the first post) and follow a link on his page to download the OMHC_Sholes.zip found on his development website. I've emailed him to see if he is willing to help with programming, script writing or advice on how to get some of the functions to work and I'm currently awaiting his reply.
EDIT - The BOLD statement above is no longer true. I have the most recent version linked in the first post. NO ONE HAS TO DO ANY MODDING TO THE ROM TO HAVE THE FUNCTIONS I HAVE ADDED
While it's nice to see forum members contributing to the poll I've attached to this, why don't we get some conversation rolling on this subject. I understand that this idea is a little far-fetched, but with some support and ideas, this could be more functional.
I'm really putting all of the extra time I've got into this (It's not much and I'm currently cutting into my sleep schedule A LOT), but I can't really get anywhere without the help of some experienced or semi-experienced advice. If you have any knowledge of what files are needed for some of the above problems to function, then please post with some advice. The same goes for editing those files.
I'm not a dev, but I'd like to have a more in depth knowledge of how to modify roms from the ground up.
i wish i could give a little bit of help, but i have no idea what i would be doing on the dev side. but i agree, the D1 community is dead. the only thing i could help with is trying to post something on droidforums.com because i think that that site is more active with D1 people. hopefully that helps out a little, but i wish you the best of luck bro and i will be one of the first ones downloading it once its gets stable, i have been waiting for honeycomb for a while. so ill help by giving feedback then.
That would be great, feel free to put a link to this page there if that's allowed. Any dev that could help would be welcomed with open arms
Fixed A Problem
UPDATE - Alpha V0.2
Superuser permissions added
Its the old style and you may have to back out to the home screen (press home soft key in the bottom left of the screen or by pressing search and then the back soft key), but it works. I've been able to use rom manager to reboot into recovery and give Set CPU root access (even though the darn thing FCs after any attempt to change the CPU speeds.
I'm on the D2, but it would be great to see some development for honeycomb, because it seems like once it gets onto one device working well, it spreads like a disease (a good disease... like... something good that spreads like a disease ahaha). The development at droidforums tends to be semi-alive for the OG Droid, though, because I see new posts there almost daily. I'm sure the community would love to help, since there seems to be a pretty solid core of OGD developers there!

Honeycomb would definitely be a great disease to have spreading around. From what I understand the ZTE Blade and the HTC HD2 are the two phones with the most features enabled from HC. Most others are basically in the same boat as the OG Droid.
I'm still digging around a lot to see if I can find anything else to get to work. I'm still having a lot of problems getting the SD Card to mount. The most frustrating things is while running the HC rom, I can enable USB debugging, but my computer (no matter what program I'm using) doesn't recognize my phone. I'll jump between droidforums and here to see about getting anything working.
---UPDATE FOR ROM---
Ok, so this isn't actually anything big. I installed rzr recovery on my phone and used it to overclock my phone to 1100MHz. The rom runs a lot smoother with the overclock, but there's still a lot of lag. I still need to figure out how to make the Hardware accel work.
BE CAREFUL WITH THIS RECOVERY. IT WAS INTENDED FOR RZ ROMS AND MAY NOT LOAD YOUR BACKUPS CORRECTLY!!!
I've also noticed that some apps like to FC when trying to perform certain functions. Maybe because they're not for HC, but I'll be looking into it. Also, I've been kind of ignoring a problem with coloring because Its not all that important, but I'm adding it to the "to do" list
This is great. Keep up the good work friend!
Sent from my ApeX-ed, Overclocked, and Automated Droid 2.
Update - Minor Thread tweaking
I cut out all of the fat and renamed the thread. Also added a link to download Alpha V0.2
I'm still looking for somewhat experienced devs to take a look under the hood and try to help out. Anyone who would like to test the rom can now that I've uploaded it to the web.
Please, PLEASE remember that this rom is still in alpha stages and needs a lot of work or overseeing from an experienced dev. If you notice any problems that are not listed on the main page, please let me know so I can add it to the "to do" list.
Sorry for the delay in a response, Mastur. I have a 7 week old and a new house as well as working nights, so its been short on free time. I will get you a PM tomorrow and try to give you a hand from there. Thanks!
No worries man. I've been hard at work, but I still need help with this. My friend is familiar with xml and html but not with the android OS. So I don't know how much help he'll be. I don't know anyone familiar with java, but I'm not sure how important that really is...
HUGE update coming a little later! A lot of work finished and screen shots uploaded
EDIT - Update's in!!!! The link to the new alpha of Honeycomb is in the first post. Happy downloading =)
thanks man this is pretty cool
Updated link in first post. Better hardware acceleration, still not perfect
Looking great! Keep it up!

SimplyWind0ws Jolly Rancher v0.2a
Hey guys Micheal Smith here and i proudly present you my newest creation,
SimplyWindows Jolly Rancher v0.2a!
[*]Introduction
This rom uses a special launcher called Jolly Rancher Launcher that was created by me from previous launcher's source.
The launcher was titled LauncherLi, Which was a launcher uploaded to Google Play with a low number of views and downloads.
The launcher is based off of Microsoft's Zune Player with the stunning 4.04 Ice Cream Sandwich OS Ported to the Epic 4g
by the one and only Cyanogenmod Team. Some people call it a build i call it NEW.! Something different. While people are
dying to get there hands on MIUI,CM9,Darky ROM, Peoples ROM and other magnificent creations, I wanted to create something
different also. I wanted android to have a new feel instead of the normal 5-7 homescreens. I knew that everyone has different
taste but i also took into consideration of the user's in the android community who love Microsoft Products such as WP7 and
Zune Player. I took it upon myself to create a rom for those Microsft/Android Combination Lovers. With an awesome performance
experience. Think of it as Zune UI running on a CM9 ICS Based Rom. Even the name of it sounds awesome right.? Well it has been
done and the hard working nights officialy paid off. So please android community i ask that you support me and my SimplyWind0ws
Series Project, Because it only gets better and better from here. The better my scripting skills improve, The better the outcome,
Dont you agree.? Well lets get down to business..
[*]Resources Used To Make This Happen
I will generate a list of resources used to make this rom stable and to give me a stunning vision.
*CM9 Beta 2 ROM(Thanks Cyanogenmod Team)
*LauncherLi as source NOT APP(Thanks Lilse_238_N_D)
*Halo Boot Animation(Thanks Auntie Dot)
*ZPlayer(Thanks Odesanmi) Note:ZPlayer Name is changed to Media Center
*A BIG IMAGINATION
[*]Eplanations To Make It Clear To Users
I will let you know exactly what i did here. I am fully aware that according to XDA rules adding paid apps into a rom isnt allowed.
LauncherLi isnt a paid app unless you purchase the Unlocker. I Didnt even build off of the APP Physically. I am great at Xml Creation
and i analyzed the layout of the launcher and figured it out just like that. Sounds Impossible.? It really isnt, When you get used to doing
things they become a breeze. But there were alot of issues. I didnt get some of the exact layouts correct so i used xml files and images from
LauncherLi and covered some of the things i missed. I wrote my own UI Strings for the launcher, But it does have some of launcherLi's UI Strings,
Only Because i didnt wanna takeover the launcher as completely mine and repost it. I left some of LauncherLi UI scripts and Smali files to
give the dev his credit. The dev is actually a Chinese man and cannot speak very good english. So his version of the launcher was a lil confusing
because of his mixed grammar. Why not just use the launcher completely and give dev full credit.? Because this improves my scripting skills and
my ability to create not just launchers but roms also. It helps me gain uninformed knowledge for any future releases i may distribute to the
community.
[*]Overview of the launcher
This launcher can be quite confusing to use on first attempts but once you are used to it, It feels just like home.
It uses basic UI Format for that easy use. There are launcher options to change HUB Display names and widget colors,
Font Colors and more. You can even change themes. Well Its not recommended because from what i understand when changing
themes it uses the original dev's generated servers. To be honest i dont even think there are any themes available for
this rom yet. But i assure you once support and development improves we will implement our own Theme server.
NOTE: The roms does give you a few tips on first use to get you started. I didnt add any of the extra WP7 based apps
because of compatibility issues when replace stock apps that are used with celluar service. They will be added in newer
roms though.

[*]Installation Instructions
Flash this how you would flash any ROM(CM ROMS Preffered)
*Wipe Data
*Wipe Cache
*Wipe Dalvik Cache.
AND FLASH ZIP FROM SD CARD!
When first booted up READ ONSCREEN EXPLANATIONS THOROUGHLY.! The HUBs arent prepared upon first boot, You
have to go to Applications menu, Press and hold an app that matches hubs on homescreen, And press pin to(Choose
the hub that matches the app you chose) and then it will be accessible from the homescreen. You can also turn an
app into a button that can be used in make items menu.
This rom was created by ME, With no ones help except for the useful resources, Not even my fellow Team Members.
They are assigned to dev on the next releases of the SimplyWind0ws Series.
[*]Simple Bugs Nothing Major
When editing any homescreen settings or launcher settings press back instead of home. Home button does nothing in some
cases.
Whenever you return to the homescreen menu, A notification appears in a toast message and in the status bar. The toast
message states updates are only launched by the dev(ME) and the status bar message says Jolly Rancher Successfully Load!
With the SimplyWind0ws Guy's Head as a icon. This happens everytime you return to the homescreen unless you DO NOT CLEAR
THE NOTIFICATION. Then it wont popup. This also may occur when rotating homescreen. Yes this launcher does support
auto screen rotations.
Thats pretty much it. Like i said this is my first OFFICIAL Project and this is the start of my SimplyWind0ws Series so may
i ask that the XDA and Android community support me the whole way.

Warning: I built this off of CM9 Cricket rom which has crickets data settings, The rom was officially started for cricket users. But if you guys know how to Configure APN's Then there shouldn't be any problems.
BE NICE AND HIT THAT THANKS BUTTON PLEASE.!

Man that OP is difficult to read, lol.
Screenshots? This sounds pretty cool, I'll give it a shot if someone can help me reconfigure APN back to Sprint.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
I am trying to post screenshots now. Posting IMG tags on screenshots is very difficult for me on XDA. I dont know why but it is.
And to reconfigure APN's open up voice dialer app and say "Open APN's" and add your sprint settings in there. If you dont know much about sprint settings such as MMSC EtC. then google is your friend. You can also edit the apns-conf.xml.
And i am new to writing OP's so bear with me on this one.
Crickett?? dang, I wish I knew more of the other side, i would like to try this. And i would love to see some screen shots if you have time.
Good luck in your learning, and keep trying.
You can use it with sprint too. But you might have to reconfigure your apn's which shouldnt be hard. And i am currently PM'ing a Moderator on help to getting my Screenshots transferred to XDA. And thanks ^____^

you are not alone on that being a *****. sometimes screens will work if they are inline, sometimes not. sometimes only large image. and sometimes only small. it is a crap shoot. lol
LOL Your right about that. I managed to link them to billionuploads. They are simply snapshots from Screenshot app on Google Play. Hopefully a moderator can put IMG tags on them for me
i have found that photo bucket for whatever reason( for me) has been the most reliable. but what a pain in the a**
Photo Bucket was actually used in my teams first official rom. Once again IMG tags were clueless to us so of course the kind moderators at XDA put img tags on them. But your right Photo Bucket is hard to work with. lol
Not building completely from source and posting the full source is frowned upon by CM.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk 2
I informed people what i used which was launcherLi as an idea. The launcher uses most of LauncherLi Main Xml's Smali's ETC. So basically if you want the source just open up a LauncherLi APK. Because alot of things are the same. I understand if i built this launcher straight from the ground up without any original sources. Then i would use github to distribute my source. I didnt even touch any settings in the CM9 ROM just the launcher and Boot animation. Since this launcher uses LauncherLi main Sources i cannot post the source strictly because it collaborates with the original developer, That is for him to do not me.

I'm only LOL because I've never ported for this phone. I've managed to blind port other phones. I've actually had a good history porting the Atrix and having it work well, so with any luck, this will be another success.
Just wanted to make sure people really understood that this has not been tested at all. That's all
EDIT:
Great job and all the work in here...Th3Bill and Pony....and all involved...AWESOME!
I'll test it after school...almost time to leave...don't want to have to go to school with a phone stuck in a boot loop , I wonder how this will compare to galnets/theROMinators miui bug wise...

Don't see what your issue with me is
I already build MIUI for a phone I don't own, and have great success porting other roms to phones I don't own (CNA, AOKP, AOKPCB, and MIUI for Atrix). If you want to see how well my MIUI builds go on blind ports, ask someone using my build over on the Atrix.
I understand that you don't like my LOL, but I am a happy guy. I tend to put LOL when I don't have anything else to put...just a force of habit.
I figured I'd try to put up something that you guys could use. It's not going to blow up your phone. What catastrophe are you indicating might happen? Wow...boot loops. That's a really huge problem.
I DO know what I am doing with this, and wouldn't put something out if I didn't. If you want to check out some of the work I do, look at Kitchen Sink over at the Photon/Atrix forums. 5 roms and 100 options in ONE zip, all done with Aroma....and built by Jokersax and myself.
Edit: 6 LOLs....(one of which was explaining why I did an LOL) in this thread...that's a real lot....must mean I'm incompetent

I don't have an issue with you. You may be a great dev for the photon. The software for a moto phone and a Samsung phone are totally different.

Believe me, that's why I put in the OP that I am a Photon dev. I blind-port for the Atrix. It's really not that hard to do, honestly once you've ported your own native device, as most of the same files go into each port from MIUI....and once you get it done right once, the future builds take less than an hour or two to get ported...
As for restoring....that's what nandroid does wonders for...but if this DOES work, it's a really nice rom that has some great options....not sure if you've used Aroma on any roms. It's really trick.

Cricket Ignite
I just got my ZTE N9511 on Black Friday. Last night they stopped me from using PowerAmp Pro that I got from torrent downloads. Today I uninstalled it, installed Titanium Backup Pro and deleted Cricket Ignite off my phone... I am still wet behind the ears with all of this, will my phone be okay, and is there anything else I should take off my phone as far as system apps go?
@JOEP702
So far I have froze/disabled a few system apps.. Click here to see.

custom rom for zte source ?
Anyone knows about A custom rom for the zte source?
@2012crazymexican
From what I have heard, there is no fastboot for the Source... which means ... well I don't know for sure but I believe you need fastboot in order to flash a custom ROM. I am far from a Dev, and have little experience beyond simple adb commands and a few fastboot commands. There IS a way to put software on this device, though I doubt ZTE is going to give out its secrets. If this phone becomes more popular then hopefully we will get some smart devs, like Hashcode for example, who can work on this phone. Until then, I will be doing whatever I can to unlock this device as best as I can.

So I'm a dumbass
The title says it all. Apparently I either deleted the wrong thing, or something, but I just got my Source this afternoon and did the root on it, and then installed Titanium Backup.... I did a backup of all the apps, but when I try to restore, I get multiple failures. Not sure what happened and frankly don't care, (the phone still works great minus the Ignite crap by the way) but I've found factory test mode and the recovery module...
Using this method I'd like some of you rooted folks to try and do a ROM dump. Try it from Factory Test Mode AND the Recovery Mode.
To get to recovery: Either restart the device and hold Volume Up, or completely power it down and start with the volume up.
Factory Test Mode: Same thing as recovery, except you use Volume Down.
I'm gonna do a DD on this and download the full SDK, see what I can figure out, but I am so not a Dev, dudes and dudettes, so it'll be up to the ZTE lovers out there to make it happen. I'm also looking to see about Link2SD support and EXT4 support, though with all the storage, it'll be awhile before I fill mine...
Still, this is a brand new phone, pretty much, and I'm gonna love messing around with it with you folks, but I've been around dev's and fankids before: androidforums Admire and Evo 4G threads, to name two. I sincerely hope that we can all work together to pimp this darn thing instead of fighting like a bunch of kids :highfive: I'll post my DD dumps and whatnot as I get them, and try on your devices as well. The more people we have working on this the better.
@DaemeonZane
Thanks for the info! Added to OP.
Have you managed to get the driver installed for FTM?
Recovery is crap... No zip install... no backup.... but a must have regardless.
ALL THE MORE REASON WHY WE NEED SOME SMART DEVS HELPING!!
CWM or TWRP would be great! Custom Roms would be great!
Hey Gus.
.
Hey guys I too am a noob and don't know anything hardly about Modding the android system but I am totally techale and willing to try almost anything. I got this phone to learn on but I am finding out tbat there isn't much soft ware writtien for this model so I get to work with you guys on some real development instead of just flashing and recovering...
I really want to k kW if anyone has had any luck finding and flashing any costoms at all... if so could you post the link with instructions. Thanks guys

I got it to register just by having Windows Update look for dirvers. Picked a good ADB driver right off the bat.... Right now I've got root and am attempting to use an adb shell and rkdump to get a good image.... but under /dev/block I can't identify what's recovery, what's system, etc.; all I get is the following:
It's kind of a pain in my ass, because I'm not quite sure what's what, but if any of you have used ZTE devices before, you'd have a better idea of their naming conventions than I would... tell me what to dump and I've got you, just keep in mind I'm no longer stock (i.e., I've deleted a lot of the bloatware from the system)
@DaemeonZane
Excellent work! I will try the windows update idea. The driver for FTM is the only driver I couldn't find. I have ZTE_Android USB_Driver_For_Microsoft_PC and ZTE Handset USB Driver 5.2066.1.8 But neither of those provide the FTM driver. You are making good strides towards unlocking the potential for this phone. We do need someone helping who is a linux wiz or ZTE wiz.
Have you had any success with googling those listed items (like mmcblk0p1)?
#GREAT WORK! :good:
@strykerhandy
Welcome to the thread!
I'm excited to have as many ZTE Source owners working on this device as we can. Any help you can provide is appreciated. As far as any questions you might have, ... what you read here is it! Lol! This device is so new that there isn't anything else written about it outside of specs and reviews. As far as I know, this is the only thread out there ... here on xda, or anywhere for that matter.
@DaemeonZane
I'll do some research and see what I can find.

You are correct. cricketusers.com/cricket-zte-source/ has a couple basic threads discussing specs, but that's about it. AndroidForums doesn't even have a whole lot on it... So we're it.
As far as googling the partitions, and whatnot, not so much, but it is what it is. I'm currently at work (Buffalo Americas) but when I get to the house tonight I'll be able to dig up a bit more. I'm a Linux enthusiast, but my main bag is actually networking and security... lol Still working on getting that dump, but if anyone figures it out and can make it happen, post it for the world to see... I've never had an Android in my hands that wasn't rooted and customized to some degree, and I'm not giving up on this one just yet... lol
Not a bad benchmark...
I'm having an issue attaching a screenshot right now. Benchmark was 14434. I'll get a picture up later.
Also, I managed to create a gz file... might help someone.

So i have rooted and already had to fix the "cannot establish reliable data connection to server" problem.... thats how i bricked my last phone but using titanium backup and wifi its a for sure fix.... anyway so i am not well read about the basics of the platform and i dont know if this an option or not but jas anyone tried the Cwm recovery builder? I got on there and read up on it but its to.advanced for me right now... also i cant figure out why basic flashing wont work from romtoolbox pro. I have tried frlashing some. BOot animations and i did some.fonts but the animations stop half way through and screen goes black till the.phone boots. Any advice is welcomed and appreciated..
Sent from my ZTE_N9511 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I will look into the cwm builder... As for the boot animations, perhaps you need to resize them. Not all are designed for our layouts. Just a thought.
*Edit* Using ROM toolbox pro I was able to change my boot animation. So it does work.
