Hi all,
Warning: wifi doesn't work and development has been discontinued.
Due too the issues I had with the Smartoonay ROM I decided to start and create my own ROM. This is a second try...

None yet... anyone?
Hi nikagl,
Glad to see someone making another ROM for the Smart. It will prove valuable for people unable to install Smartoonay.
I'll give it a shot if I can find some time.
Regards,
Thank you very much for your work.
I am planning on trying out an S300 for T-Mo US despite the lack of 3G support here.
I was turned off by some of the problems related to Smartoonay
Just to let you know, I think I created this rom on 1.000.19. Gonna update it to 1.000.24 sometime next week (currently on holiday)...
Would you pls tell me more.......
Dear Nikagl,
Truly appreciate your hard working on this ROM. I like this phone so much and so happy to find the ROM finally.
I've download the 2 files you split, but I have trouble to merge these 2 files together. Would you pls tell me how to unzip the files?
I will give it a try and give you some feedbacks.
Thank you so much and have a great day there.

I have uploaded it to SourceForge:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/nika-s300-rom/files/Nika_s_ROM_v1.0.zip/download
But please be aware, current build is based on 1.000.19 and I wil upgrade it to 1.000.24 soon... more news when I have time
Regards,
Nika.
Hi all,
I have figured out a way to install the Smartoonay ROM, see the Smartoonay thread. This project is therefore discontinued, unless someone has a good suggestion for what to change to either ROM (I can modify Smartoonays ROM in some respect too)...
Regards,
Nika.
Sorry to hear that you won't continue....
Dear Nikagl,
It is so pity that you decided not to continue the ROM. I tried to installed your ROM for several times, unfortunately, it won't work. I installed the CWM 4.0.0.8. first. It works! , I followed your instructions to carry on but when I tred to install it from the external SD and restored it from the backup, it failed and show " MD5 mismatch".
Maybe the reason is current build is based on 1.000.19. and should upgrade it to 1.000.24. My one is 1.000.24. I think. (Gen 2 )
Once you decide to work on your ROM. I will happy to try again.
Sincerely thank you for your efforts so much. You are great. I think I will donate one day.
Have a nice day over there.
Jerry
No worries, I'll make one soon as I don't like several things in the Smartoonay rom. With regards to your md5 error - can you try downloading it again?
Added my 1.1 version of the ROM. See first post for all details
Enjoy, and let me know
Regards,
Nika.

Even though this is for the old method I used (backup/restore) I did want to shed a light on this. MD5 Mismatch is often caused by the files on the sdcard getting corrupted. When you check, you'll see that the file somehow turned into 0kb. Not sure yet, but I think there's some issue with the debugging mount in Acer ROMs or this version of the CWM Recovery.
Nevertheless, workaround is as follows:
1. Use the Mount USB from CWM
2. Copy the files onto the sdcard
3. Copy/paste one more extra file or duplicate the backup you want to install
4. Install the backup in the same session (do not reboot or something)
Some more tips:
1. For backups - always copy them to your pc immediately after making it (with the USB mount in CWM)
2. It is possibly to "reMD5" your files - see this thread: only do this when you do not have 0 kb files and are sure the backup is intact!!
3. When you install/restore something and it turns out the be corrupt, reboot into recovery again - if you fix it, and try it again in the same session it will "remember" the old status somehow...
Good luck
Regards,
Nika.
please help me
hello brother I wonder if you could help me fix my phone is the Acer Iconia s300 I am from mexico and I am using a translator to write sorry if the translation is terrible in the end what happens is that when you change the font to the cell was shut down and when lit and did not go acer screen and android I wonder if you could provide me the room or firmware and a tutorial on how to install my email is [email protected] love you for life if you help me

The translation is actually very well, perfect! You will probably loose all settings but you will get a working phone back when you simply install one of the stock ROMs. I have had this issue several times when working on new ROMs and stock ROM always fixes it. Just install 1.000.19 or 1.000.24. You can either download them from the Acer website, or get them from Vache's website:
http://global-download.acer.com/GDF... SMART (S300)&OS=a06&LC=nl&BC=Acer&SC=EMEA_18
http://vache-android.com/v1/index.php?site=files&cat=30
http://vache-android.com/v1/index.php?site=files&file=123
http://vache-android.com/v1/download.php?fileID=123
Then simply connect the device to your PC. Maybe you need to install the drivers (download from Acer) as well and then just run the setup from the Stock firmware...
Good luck!
Regards,
Nika.

Typically blind as a bat, I only just noticed this thread! I've not tried flashing yet as my main desire for flashing would be an overclockable ROM. To that end, I'm wondering, have you tried compiling your own kernel from source, yet?
I do have an environment to be able to compile kernels, like I compiled the 5.x version of the recovery (did you see that, being blind as a bat ) but I don't have any of the kernel sources and wouldn't know where to find them either. And honestly... I am way to lazy to recompile the sources from scratch.
Did you try the overclocked kernel I added to the Smartoonay thread? As you own a similar device as mine, you may have the same issue where it doesn't boot, but for paugustin it works so maybe it does for you too?
This is my most favourite topic!
I will enlight you all how to create your own flashable zip file. I'm trying to make it as n00bfriendly as I can.
Code:
DISCLAMER
Follow this guide step by step so nothing can happen. Anyway I'm not responsible for any damage caused because of me or this thread. If you have any questions or problems, don't be shy and
[B]ask me I will help or create it for you![/B]
So here we go:
There are two ways how to do it:
WAY ONE (PC):
What you need:
*brain (for those who don't know...)
*your pc
*notepad++
*7zip
*FlashGuide.zip (can be found in attachments)
WAY TWO (I9001):
*brain (yes, here too...)
*your I9001 (you don't need root)
*FlashGuide.zip (can be found in attachments)
*Explorer or RootExplorer app
******************************
WAY ONE (PC):
1.download the files for your pc and install them
2.open 7zip and unzip FlashGuide.zip
3.In the folder FlashGuide you will see two sub-folders which are as "META-INF" and "system"
4.see: META-INF
5.see: SYSTEM
WAY TWO (I9001):
1.download the files for your I9001
2.open the app and unzip FlashGuide.zip
3.In the folder FlashGuide you will see two sub-folders which are as "META-INF" and "system"
4.see: META-INF
5.see: SYSTEM
-----------------------------
META-INF
Go back to the root of the folder and open up"META-INF". leave those files untouched and open "com" and then "android".
Inside the android folder, you will see two files named as "update-binary" and updater-script.
WAY ONE (PC):
Open the "updater-script" file with "notepad++".
You are free now to type some code you want just press HERE
WAY TWO (I9001):
Open the "updater-script" file by longpress it and choose "Text Editor".
You are free now to type some code you want just press HERE
-----------------------------
SYSTEM
Concentration! It's nearly finished. Let's see, what you have to do with the "system" folder. It's in the root of the FlashGuide folder.
You should add your MOD now, HOW TO:
ADD an APP
If you want to add an apk file then create a folder named "app" and that "app" folder contains the apk file(s) that you want to put in the system partition of the ROM.
FRAMEWORK
If you want to add framework-mods then add a folder named "framework" into the "system" folder.put your framework mods into that folder. (in the most cases the Framework mods are in a Framework-res.apk file.)
LIBS
If you want to change libs then create a folder named "lib" and put the libs in there.
BIN
If you want to put bin files then the subfolder in the system subfolder will be "bin" and it will contain the bin files.
SCRIPTS
If you want to add scripts then name a folder in the system "etc", create there a folder named "init.d" and put the scripts in there.
NOW CHECK THIS LIST:
I updated the UPDATER-SCRIPT
√
I updated SYSTEM
√
IF NOT BOTH BOXES ARE TICKED, THEN YOU HAVE TO GO BACK!
After doing all that:
WAY ONE (PC):
open 7zip, go to the directory where the FlashGuide folder is located and zip it
WAY TWO (I9001):
After you modded the "Updater-Script" a backup had automatically been created. In this case it's the Updater-Script.bak data. Just delete it. Then go back to the directory where the FlashGuide folder is located, do long press the FlashGuide folder, scroll down, select "zip this folder" and follow further instructions.
Now you can rename the .zip to whatever you want!
THAT's ALL FOLKS!
PRESS HELP IF I THANKED YOU!
-----------------------------
HOW TO EDIT THE UPDATER- SCRIPT:
So once the updater-script has been opened with text editor (notepad++/Explorer), you will have to type some codes or you will get no reaction.
1
To Display the information of the particular Mod when you select to flash it in CWM Recovery
Code:
ui_print("***The Text you want to display***");
2
To mount the /system partition
Code:
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
3
To add the apps in the /system partition
Code:
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
4
To unmount the /system partition
Code:
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "unmount", "/system");
5
To delete some apps, frameworks,...
Code:
delete("/system/app/XY.apk");
or
delete("/system/framework/franework-res.apk");
6
To show progress
Code:
e.g.:
show_progress(0.500000, 0);
show_progress(0.500000, 20) show_progress(0.500000, 40) show_progress(0.500000, 60) show_progress(0.500000, 80) show_progress(1.000000, 0)
Basically the show_progress command indicates the progress of the installation of the MOD.
an example how to use it: [HIDE]
after writing the name/info of the mod write:
show_progress(0.500000, 0);
after writing the code to mount the system partition,you can write the next one:
show_progress(0.500000, 20);
extracting the package from the system partition: show_progress(0.500000, 40);
unmount system partition show_progress(0.500000, 60);
after writing the "happy ending" of installing this zip, write: show_progress(0.500000, 80);
maybe a "reboot system" or "thanks for flashing" phrase, write: show_progress(1.000000, 0)[/HIDE]
Basically the show_progress command indicates the progress of the installation of the mod.
In this case the progress bar fill up in increments of 10, with a 0.5 second delay. What is actually being done by these lines, however, is to keep adding 0.5.
If the progress commands had enough time, this would also mean that each chunk would fill at a slower pace (since the duration is increasing), but the script moves fast enough that the user never sees this.
None of this actually changes the functionality of the script, hence my earlier declaration that this was somewhat POINTLESS to learn. This is strictly an aesthetic issue for the user, but if you are going to write scripts, I hope this comes in handy.
NOTE:
If you are using CM, you have to mount your "system" manually, using the option "mount and storage" in CWM

Sorry, really well done .zip! Just forgot to add the delete section (If you have an app, etc. already installed) should work now.
will add delete section, permission section and set_progress section right after school.

EDIT: if you are on a Cyanogenmod, aosp or anything what isn't stock 2.3.6 rom, you have to mount system manually
In CWM go to mounts and storage and choose system

In the end line of update script you.should put an empty line and after mounting system you should unmount it and be sure your premissions are fixed!
If you do that rules you will never have a bootloop!

Requirements ----
1)A file manager(MixPlorer recommended.Because of its multi-tab feature)
2)Archiver(Zarchiver recommend.Because of its fast compression-decompression feature and user-friendly interface.
PORTING For Same SoCs ( Ex: MT6572 to MT6572 )
*First extract your port rom using Zarchiver in a folder and lets call it the 'port' folder.
*U will see some folder like Meta.inf,system,boot.img,logo.bin etc.
*Get your stock rom and extract it too in another folder.
(Now we have both stock and port rom extracted)
*Now repace this files from stock to port folder--
FILE LIST FOR REPLACING:
Code:
*system/vendor
*system/usr
*system/lib/modules
*system/lib/hw
*system/lib/libncurses.so
*system/etc/firmware
*system/etc/vold.fstab
*system/etc/vold.fstab.nand
*system/etc/bluetooth
Code:
For Fixing Problems...
*system/etc/permissions
*system/etc/security
*system/etc/audio
*system/etc/wifi
*system/lib/drm
*system/lisystem/lib/soundfx
* Now Replace the Stock Boot.img to Port ROM!
* Now Open The Port ROM folder and go to---
META-INF/
google/android
and
open updater-script in MixPlorer(or any other text editor you like)
* Do the same for the Stock ROM
* Now In the Port ROM's Updater Script, find a line that
starts with this...
format(".......
and only replace the mmcblk0p.. with the stock one!
* Do the same for this line...
mount("...
Example:
This is the PORT one!!!
Code:
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/
mmcblk0p5", "0", "/system");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/
mmcblk0p5", "/system");
This is the Stock one!!
Code:
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/
mmcblk0p3", "/system");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/
mmcblk0p3", "/system");
Now just Replace the "mmcblk0p3" from STOCK to PORT!!
It should look like this:
Code:
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/
mmcblk0p3", "0", "/system");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/
mmcblk0p3", "/system");
DO NOT REPLACE THE WHOLE LINE!
* Now go back to the Folder of Port ROM and You'll see 2
folders & 1 file(maybe more) named
-META-INF
-system
-boot.img
Select all these files with Zarchiver and press hold on them.
A pop-up menu will appear and hit compress.
Select this--
Compression FORMAT -- ZIP
Compression type -- Normal
Done...
Compression will be started...
After compression flash it from recovery.
If you see a status 6 or 7 error,then u must have did something wrong in updater script.
See some youtube video's to solve it.
And yeah,this is guide to port stock modded roms.If u want to port MIUI,CM,AOKP,SLIM etc...
Than your have to edit boot.img(kernel).
I will write a guide for this(yeah,without pc)
Keep porting roms

does rebooting takes a long time?
For me it took about 15-20 min...
But works fine also later on rebooting it takes lot of time....

I have a local brandless phone.
Specs are:
SoC: MT6572

Processor: 1.2GHz dual core
Since it's a crap phone, I'm looking for 8.1 Go ROM for it. Anyone have it?

Port custom ROM like miui aosp
Sir where is the guide to port custom ROM miui etc
Hi everyone! I'm hoping you're doing well in your houses. I'm quite noob in the AOSP world so I apologise in advance if this is a trivial question but I haven't had any success so far.
I'm trying to fix the low mic gain for Whatsapp (3th party apps in general I assume) in my Samsung Galaxy J7 (SM-J700M) using LineageOS 17.1 (+ Magisk 20.3). Many threads indicate that the file mixer_paths_0.xml must be edited and then everything should work after a reboot.
The problem is that those changes are reset every time I reboot the phone, so I've been unable to check if the solution works (and the idea is that it should works after any other future reboot of course).
So my question is why the file mixer_paths_0.xml is set to its default after the reboot? and how can I make the changes persistent across reboots?
Thanks!
After reading a lot I tried to mount the systems directory with RW permissions but I realised that Magisk is actually in charge of that task and doing so could lead to some issues, so I created a very simple module with the file in question in order to replace/inject the default one but it didn't work the file still have the old values.
Code:
.
|-- META-INF
| `-- com
| `-- google
| `-- android
| |-- update-binary
| `-- updater-script
|-- module.prop
`-- system
`-- vendor
`-- etc
|-- mixer_paths_0.xml
`-- test
I included an empty test file to see if it gets added and indeed it appears but unfortunately mixer_paths_0.xml is not replaced. I assume that the default one is mounted after the module is done and overwrites my custom mixer_paths_0.xml file, if that's the case how can I mount the module files after all the other files are in places?
Thank you!
