[APP] [Alpha-03] - xCharge - SE Reboot Options for Xperia - http://xcharge.sf.net

Thanks to my good friend DooMLoRD for this breakthrough, Bin4ry & Androxyde for developing and maintaining FlashTool, the ability to drop from the desktop into Recovery on the X10 is now just a widget download away.
The original thread has since evolved and is worth looking at to understand the concepts, some history and challenges faced with thanks to all the XDA developers and forum members who have given help and time, in making this possible. This evolution, would not be at all possible without the DooMLoRD and his work and efforts and contributions for Xperia owners has made many owners very happy, the [Universal] for ALL ROMs / ALL Xperia Android devices with any Recovery is where it all began and now, the ever popular app by Koush application Rom Manager , available for the Sony Ericsson Xperia.
Requirements:
Any of the following supported devices
Phone needs to be rooted with Busybox installed
Any Working Version of Recovery
Supported Devices:
Xperia X10
Xperia X8
Xperia X10 Mini
Xperia X10 Mini Pro
How-To:
1: Download the update.zip (its flashable via recovery) and save on sdcard
2: Reboot into recovery and flash the update.zip
3: Reboot phone
The app is a widget and does not have a App Drawer icon yet! (coming soon), once u enter home screen long press on blank area to add widget (this requires 1x2 icon space).
1: Locate "Xperia Reboot Options" and select it
2: Click on the app icon (X) to lauch widget/app
3: Select what reboot option u want
Click Process
Allow superuser prompt for permissions... click "Allow"...
DONE!!!

MrHassel, Just saw your message, I think I should now work on the SF repo, right?
Are the todos here all the needed?

hi zoz33,
i dont know if MrHassel updated the sources after our discussions but basically we are trying to implement SED commands based on v3 (reboot_into_rec_univ_xperia_v3.zip) of add-on_installer.sh script from here... in java..
may be he will upload the latest files in a few hours...

Zoz33 sorry for delay response, Australian time zones.. Had to undo something yesterday, working at cross purposes on mount points and ended up with a buffer problem. Using Apache Commons isn't working nice due to fifo..
Stream EDit (sed) is much better way as DooMLoRD said. So I will be modifying and reissue sources now.

Moved to proper forum.

do I still need to edit the scripts before installing the widget?
or
just the widget only?
thanks.
great work guys

Nice.
What exactly do you want graphics-wise?

*when complete* provides alternative to scripts
@junixquiaoit good question. This app is not ready for release, it is still being developed. The reason I posted to the developer forum is that I have put this together based on DooMLoRD's scripts, with his assistance and guidance.
Mr Clown relocated rightly, as this is an APP but still in development and not ready for public testing just yet - this maybe causing some.. you have my apologies.
For now perhaps it is best to stick with scripts. When ready the widget / app could potentially replace scripts, although both will be maintained by DooMLoRD and myself.
I will continue to provide assistance and support for as long as I am able, life hopefully

Hi Aydee Great to hear from you, presently it has one single Transparent PNG, 72 x 72 px - created in Adobe Illustrator CS5, no filters or effects, attached at the top of this thread.
http://developer.android.com/guide/practices/ui_guidelines/widget_design.html
Ideally it should continue to have a 72x72px graphic, for the App drawer and a very small icon for the Widget selection panel and desktop.. HOWEVER what would be really nice imho is to have a few options, one as a spanning 4 column 2 row desktop widget, which can display important state of chargemon (modified / stock), recovery version (ie; xRecovery 0.3 / 0.2 etc..), root active, uptime or some system info..
Best Regards,
MH

Hi all,

Your post will be Ignored because you failed to read & understand any of the posts!!!
P.S
ONLY for Developers!

you know what...
I guess a development thread (hosted with official open source hosting) isn't a development related?
As it turns out neither was the development of Zdzihu's kernel, that he released on April 1.
All I've done amounts to nothing. Just create an open source development project at SourceFoge, prepared a guide for zoz33 (with a lot of redundant java code, which is obviously just an APP or theme or something)... the fact you can't install it means nothing I guess.
@Mr Clown - as this is apparently no longer an active development and isn't any longer a part of the development thread. Why not just remove it altogether?
It's never going to get released when it's sitting in an App or Theme thread, without any input from developers.. so just delete this ok?
I'll do the same with my XDA account and everyone can just be happy.
Cheers.

Devs required
@ALL
this work will be really helpful to the Xperia community as it is laying a foundation for anyone to use this platform to create his/her own apps... we are already sharing the code with the community @ http://xcharge.sf.net and would really appreciate many more devs to help out with various aspects of this project...
firstly i want to make a few things very clear... this is a purely development thread where-in all parts of the app have not yet been finalized and work is still goin on in its development...
all the files for this are openly available at SourceForge http://xcharge.sf.net
@MODERATORS
i request you to please move this thread to X10 Development Section so that the intended audience (developers & designers) can see it and help us out...
we need help from devs/designers to create graphics for this application/widget...
we need help from devs for improving on the programming parts and also on creating newer apps/widgets based on this...
we have a few ideas for additional apps/widgets based on this:
FreeXperia Recovery installer - currently it comes preinstalled on CM7 roms by jerpelea & also can be installed thru flashtool v0.2.8 and above, but doesnt have a installer like xrecovery had
Battery/Performance tweak toggle app - like the tweaks mentioned here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1005027
Custom kernel selection on reboot menu - now that the bootloader has been bypassed newer custom kernels will be released... wouldnt it be great to have an app to select which custom kernel u want to reboot into? we can have overclock/undervolt/etc kernels...
Multi-boot menu - slightly far fetched and will need help from the devs who create the ROMs

Having this in apps & themes, is like having a car frame, a few boxes of nuts & bolts, 4 wheels and a horn.. then saying "let's go for a drive!".
That is obviously how some people roll.. so anyway.. since mostly all thread's are getting hijacked, you're going to see less postings from me. If any - thanks to J.Anderson this place is like a ghost town and the moderator's have become annoyed so much, they don't want to see new development projects, just finnished results. Fair enough..
You can't install this. It is not an app. Where it belongs is a different forum, maybe even a different website.
For anyone interested in the current state. Finnish widget and will post back when tests complete.

[NOTICE][REQ] Fit Moved to Legacy & Low Activity Devices

As the title says, the Fit has been moved to the Legacy & Low Activity devices. I would like people to come up with ideas and innovations. If you are unable to execute the idea, please join hands with DEVS. to complete the task. If you are unable to do so, just help the DEVS. test out what even is built. COme up with different custom ROMS and everything! I, as a DEV., will contribute all my BEST on keeping this device into the Main Forum.
Here is a list of what we need to achieve
-> Black Android Theme (Responsibiltiy taken by bangalorerohan)
-> Bug-free CM7(DONE)(Thanks to vishwanathptl,TJ_STYLE,marcellusbe)
-> DEV. of Scripts and Custom ROMS (ANy user can apparently do it)
-> Tutorials, Guides and ROM feedback THread ( I can do it for the future release of ANY official ROM)
-> Port of themes (Contribute as much as you can on this)
-> Overclocking Kernel (If anybody helps me, I can do this)
-> USB OTG and TV-OUT (Kernel Tweaks)
On achieving all of the above, the Fit can be moved to the Main FOrum, I believe. So, all the DEVs. and learning DEVS. please help to bring this to the main FORUM.
Also, If you have any doubts in any thing, regarding Development, please feel free to PM any DEV!
Fit is not a Legacy or Low activity Device!!

Wanna join me to make a OverClockable kernel?
I was gonna start making a Kernel soon, it seems you are interested.
Why not be a part of my team which only consists of me? LOL...
I don't know anything about Kernel Development....
Gonna start up by reading stuff from Google....
I need someone to test the Kernel too once its made....
My friend who has this phone won't do it :/
So what say?

I am ready to join you! I am now downloading the source code and stuff for Fit! Will take some time! And, I am a total NOOB to kernel DEV.
But, I think I have a friend who is good at it! I will try consulting him on what I can do.
Also, it would be good if you can share the source from where you are about to learn the Kernel Tweaking!

That's because the oc kernel is for mini....apart from the touch keys, screen and camera everything else is identical with fit and hence those features not working...a huge thanks for testing the same....am pretty sure one of our devs can pick up the work of changing the required in the mini oc kernel....the same way in which we got CM7.1 working for our fit....

No data connection!!! Help, PLEASE!!!
i have a i9070 and all was working just fine, till suddenly i noticed my data connection disappeared from notification bar.
i checked on settings, it was "On". turned it off, reboot, then tried to activate. No luck... Wifi was ok, but still no data (3G, etc).
google it and found it might be something with the apn settings, so deleted it, configured a new apn (vodafone PT), saved and tried. Still no luck...
Last method was wiping the whole thing set default settings and come with a clean OS. All accounts erased and formatted. Did the initial setup and...surprise...still no Data connection.
Can anybody help me dealing with this? I need data connection working for professional purposes urgently.
By the way, my i9070 is not rooted, official 2.3.6

Did you try putting the sim card in another phone to make sure that its not a network problem ?

Yes, I did. My sim card is working on htc hero with data connection. Still a diferent card on my galaxy s advance shows no data connection at all, which means there must be some problem with my samsung. I rooted with XXLE2 version, reformatted the phone ran the initial setup activated all accounts and still no luck.
Can you please help me? I'm running out off sollutions...

Why so? We have cocafe and Diego working on kernels, whitepx is working on cm. Ventus is working for the p variant. Instead of saying that we need more devs, probably users should step forward and help the devs with their projects!
Last time i checked, only shut down was testing and providing logs. All others were 'afraid ' that they will break their device.
If this is the case, even the existing devs will stop their projects! So instead of asking for something, please first help the devs who are already working for the device.
No offense. Just my 2 cents..

The device was released in April. So everyone is in warranty!
For a brick, you can get the device replaced. Then why worry?
Even i have only one device. I had an sga earlier. Bricked it while compiling cwm 6. Then i got this device. But the folks over at sga forum were kind enough to donate some money. Thus i could get a new device. But here all what i see is, folks afraid of testing, but they want the development to continue! How is that possible!?

[Q] I want to build CyanogenMod 10 for my Samsung Galaxy Chat B5330 myself. Help!

Okay so I've bought a samsung galaxy chat B5330 device back in feb'2013. Don't ask me why cause I conciously bought it. So I realised after searching for 6 months that there is no interest of developers in this device. so I have taken up the initiative to 1) Build CM 10, 2) Port CWM, 3) Root the device myself. However I don't have much idea about building android. I've rooted and flashed Custom recovery n ROMs to my dad's phone before and I'm a geek so I learn things quickly about computers n phones. So I'm nor a complete newbie neither a Master developer. Therefore I need help of those devlopers who will be kind enough not to discourage me. Anyone can root a device which is more popular because it gets vulnarable too quickly so there is no point in telling me that "you should have bought a device which has developer support". I am interested to be a developer myself n that challenge is really so tempting to me. So here are my questions which I don't have exact idea about.
1) I have a computer of the config -> AMD fx 6100 hexacore buldozer 3.3 GHz/4 GB RAM/500 GB HDD/Windows7(32) & Ubnuntu 13.04(64). Can I do the job of building roms from the source with this config in the first place?
2) Does galaxy chat B5330 support 'fastboot'? if yes then How can I boot into fastboot mode? I've tried with adb 'reboot-bootloader' but the device just restarted normally. So I don't know How can I get into the fastboot mode?
3) CM developers are really kind enough that they have put alot effort into making the wiki. I've got precious informations about building android from source and all. But I have a confusion. There was mentioned fastboot is necessery for building CM. So if my phone does not have fastboot should it mean that I can't build CM for my device at all?
4) How much data do I have to download? Do I need to be connected to the internet always while editing local file? n If I use 'repo sync' to update the code always won't my editings get overwritten by stock code again?
so these are few basic questions I have for now. I know I might not get any response at all. But there's no harm in trying. thanks

I am interested to be a developer myself n that challenge is really so tempting to me. So here are my questions which I don't have exact idea about.
1) I have a computer of the config -> AMD fx 6100 hexacore buldozer 3.3 GHz/4 GB RAM/500 GB HDD/Windows7(32) & Ubnuntu 13.04(64). Can I do the job of building roms from the source with this config in the first place?
2) Does galaxy chat B5330 support 'fastboot'? if yes then How can I boot into fastboot mode? I've tried with adb 'reboot-bootloader' but the device just restarted normally. So I don't know How can I get into the fastboot mode?
3) CM developers are really kind enough that they have put alot effort into making the wiki. I've got precious informations about building android from source and all. But I have a confusion. There was mentioned fastboot is necessery for building CM. So if my phone does not have fastboot should it mean that I can't build CM for my device at all?
4) How much data do I have to download? Do I need to be connected to the internet always while editing local file? n If I use 'repo sync' to update the code always won't my editings get overwritten by stock code again?
so these are few basic questions I have for now. I know I might not get any response at all. But there's no harm in trying. thanks

"Devs Not Interested...."
I don't know whether some people are still talking about this device.
I thought everybody started throwing it and getting his newer one.

I've got a working CWM. Looking forward to porting a newer version.
I've got my hands on a working cwm (somehow it did) for b5330. Now looking forward to porting CWM 6 from cm source. I just have too slow bandwidth for cm source syncing. So let's see how it goes.

The best way to start is to use another Rom as base (get permission first) then start tweaking it with scripts, apps and build.prop tweaks. Once you start to get familiar with the basics, start experimenting with different tweaks. Since you are going to create a Cyanogenmod 10 Rom from scratch, I give you best of luck and hope many people will use it!

FINALLY!
ported

I always support you sir!

I'm currently working on it. It still does not support audio/bluetooth/wifi/phone/usb nothing. It just supports full touch n can run games. You can't use it for calls/internet! I just sideloaded few apk files via adb. So it ran them smoothly. N don't call me sir please. I hate formalities.. just chill

[CM DEVELOPMENT] Asus MeMO Pad ME172V

Today my wife got this device as a gift for Christmas. She asked me to look at it and set it up for her. After about an hour of research I was deeply disappointed by the fact that this device has no ROMs or Kernels and barely supports ROOT. The device is kind of slow for 2013 due to its one core 1GHz processor. But I am sure this issue would be fixed with optimizations from custom ROMs and Kernels. I myself am not an android developer but do some coding in the free time and worked on a few ports of sense for several devices. On this thread I would like to get as many developers possible with the Asus MeMO Pad to communicate and collaborate to develop a working port of CyanogenMod for the device. I will be happy to help anyone interested in this project by doing some work in the free time. I chose CyanogenMod as it is probably the easiest one to compile and is much simpler than its competitors. If we get a successful build of CM then we can move on to developing Kernels and more complex versions of Android. Keep in mind that this is not a request for any particular developer but just an invitation to collaborate and build a working ROM for this tablet. If you are interested in working with me on this project please PM me or comment down below. I will be glad to help as much as I can. Thank you to all of the developers that would be willing to participate in this project.

Im in
I did the AMPC app and mini rom (not a full rom but more mods collection)
How are you skills to decompile img ?? since the guy who did root before is no more...and we should start by doing root for latest FW.
and CWM is also very buggy (build using online kitchen)
Please feel free to PM me

I'd like to but I don't know android coding. I do some basic Java programming if that helps

Hi! I'm the guy that made CWM for this tablet, as well as the one on whos idea the whole root thing is based I'm very glad that someone picked up work on this tablet and is trying to make it better, since I don't have the time and I've lost my patience since ASUS is refusing to co-operate as far as updates and source codes are concerned. You can always PM me with questions as well as all or any info you have and I'm also willing to test builds out. Thanks

Hiya @nerotNS, I'm currently new (a noob) at xda-developers forum but since I'm actually getting a memo pad what better way of installing cyanogenmod properly than asking for help. However I couldn't help but to find the source code, and I did. I'm currently still learning so the source code wouldn't be of help to me than it would to you. So that said, heres the source
==> support (dot) asus (dot) com/Download.aspx?SLanguage=en&m=ASUS+MeMO+Pad&p=28&s=6
(remove spaces and replace '(dot)' with '.')

Hmm that's the kernel source code, we already have that Though it was in a bit of a strange format, plus I firmly believe that it's outdated as I think ASUS made some changes in the kernels via OTA. Thanks for your tip though,it's good to see that someone's trying to do with this pad

RE: CM Development
Hello, new guy here at XDA, I do not have any knowledge to Linux or Android programming yet I know how to flash and play with recoveries and such things. I am willing to be a tester for this project.

I may be able to lend my tablet for the cause of testing. Just can't brick it.
It's my 7 year old daughter's, so no harm no foul.
I'll look for updates

It could be hard to port on cm, because the chipset is VIA and no similar device successfully ported with this chipset..
