Hi , everyone.
This tool is for you to make an CWM update zip without pain...
The function of this tool is to help you guys add apks into /system/app and /data/app
You can edit the updater-script to extend the function of this tool . Enjoy
Usage: (Make sure you have java runtime installed already, if not just do so before going further steps)
So simple.
1) Just extract the tool to c:\
2) browse to c:\apk_customized_install\ folder
place apk(s) into /data/app/ or /system/app/ folder, depends on your need
(The difference between these two folder is if you put apks in /system/app/ folder you can't uninstall apks through app manager. you need root uninstaller to do so instead.)
3) run the batch file
4) You have your signed CWM update zip file under c:\apk_customized_install\ folder
5) Copy to sdcard
6) Boot into cwm recovery and flash it
7) laugh ...

Screen Shots:

Thanks bjdanny. This is an excellent ROM, great improvement over the 0713 firmware.
Wifi is MUCH BETTER - better strength, no problem with WPA2 anymore.
Screen transition is noticeably smoother with no jerky movement, but not by a wide margin. I don't have to use TouchScreenTune anymore. Browser scrolling is still slightly jerky (I use Dolphin).
I still cannot get my BT keyboard to work - just like the 0713 ROM, there is no problem with pairing the device. However, nothing happens when I type on the keyboard. I don't use BT headphone therefore I cannot test.
Just like previous firmwares, the GPS can only pick up 2 satellites here in Canada - I used wifi to assist GPS search, and I use FasterFix to change the NTP server to "North America" but has no effect. I understand that this is a Chinese phone and it had been tuned to Asia.
Front and back cameras work fine.
I use MX player which can play to up 720p H2.64 videos stored in the memory card. MX player has hardware support which seems to work. 1080p videos won't show anything on the screen.
I intend to use the X710D as a mini tablet, therefore web browsing is a major requirement. Browsing of regular webpages is really fast. However, I am not happy about the Flash streaming video performance in the web browser (NOT using YouTube app) - if you use the last Flash version for ICS, it cannot play in full screen. I found an older version for ICS which works OK, but it can only play youtube videos at up to 480p resolution (and it may also stutter with some 480p videos). The audio and video may be out of sync. By comparison, my "old" Galaxy Tab P1000 can play streaming Flash videos in the browser smoothly in at least 720p resolution (even some 1080p), and it has a higher screen resolution (1024x600). I know Flash on Android is always buggy and is on the way out, but it will be some time before html5 is perfected and becomes the norm.
BTW the comment about Flash has nothing to do with bjdanny or his ROM. I think that you did not include Adobe Flash player in your ROM. If anyone needs it, here it is:
http://www.iapktop.com/adobe-flash-player-11-1-111-10-android-4-x.html
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
P.S. I notice that the external SD card has been renamed to "sdcard2". This causes problems in some apps eg. Dolphin browser: when I try to make a download folder there, the app says the folder name has illegal characters. Maybe the future ROMs should call the external sd card something like "extsd"?

Thanks slim_thumb for using my ROM ... I can't fix the booth keyboard problem right now because i don't have one...As for 1080p video playback display black screen .try using mobo player with software rendering ...
I will make a gps fix for North America ..
I have done several test on Flash streaming video and can play very smoothly ... i suggest you try play with home wifi in order to find out wether is problem of the rom or the network speed..
Actually samsung has been doing very well on web browsing optimization, because i have a i9003 before...that's why i know that...
I have tested 1080p video flash stream on youtube with youtube app and stock web browser .The result is quite nice...both through wifi and 3g .
My suggestion for you is to play 1080p videos on youtube with stock browser through wifi at home or somewhere with strong 3g signal...
I will release flash-able update to add flash player onto the rom...soon thanks for remind.
I am now working on 2.5 GB phone storage for my rom now...so most of the problems hopefully will be fixed in coming release...Of course, more tweaks and optimizations are coming up as well ...

I flashed your rom last night and im currently putting it through its paces. So far so good. Very fast and respsonsive
Keep up the good work and keep the updates coming :good:

Thanks for the feedback bjdanny.
The streaming Flash video problem is not network related. I use it at home on wifi (15 Mbps) and I have never use it on 3G because I never intend to use it as a phone.
I know a lot of the "problems" are hardware related and they were there in the previous firmware versions. I am very happy with the improvements you've made.
Thank you for your hard work and looking forward to future versions of your ROM! I posted in another X710D thread here in XDA to let people know you developed a custom ROM.

downloading this now, cant wait!!!
i dont want to sound like a spoilt child, but could you port miui to this phone? it will be perfect for this phone

My front camera has always worked.
If your front camera does not work in every version of firmware you tried, could this be a hardware problem afterall?
Have you tried camera apps such as Vignette?

if the ffc works in official rom but not in my rom then i dont know what the problem is because i have tested without problem and so far no one who use my rom say that you may try use 3 party cam app to test the ffc
Sent from my X710d using xda premium

Now, that my FFC is finally working, i am up to new Roms.
flashed this Rom yesterday and everything seems to be in good condition.

I flashed your ROM last night, I'm still testing it, but I wanted to know how did you root your phone? I used the root procedure posted by 'jaw2floor' based on the 07/06/2012 at the beginning of the thread but it has the external SD problem, so then I follow the procedure posted by 'Ratzenberger' to get around the SD problem by flashing just the 07/13/2012;

HEY FOLKS! I have great news! After flashing the X810d with this tutorial, it was corrupting the memory card. Then I flashed the original recovery, boot.img + original preloader and original MBR from the original ROM of X710d (20120410_e1108_v73_jbl1). WORKS LIKE A CHARM!!!! Now the device continues WITH root ACCESS and memory card is working perfectly! This will also work with devices X710d too.
The problems i'm having are;
1) Bluetooth to my Plantronics 510 headset works OK when I'm actually talking on it, but if i'm not in a call and the headset is in standby mode it keeps disconnecting and re-connecting every 2 or 3 minutes , driving me crazy!
Bluetooth to my Sennheiser MM450 headset works OK, but 50% of the time when connecting, it won't connect and the phone just shows "Connecting..." and the Bluetooth is gone off into never-never land (BlueTooth will turnoff but won't turn back on) an I have to remove the battery to correct the problem , driving me crazy 2!
2) WiFi won't connect to corporate enterprise wifi use WPA/WPA2 I get "Authentication Problem", or 5GHz networks.
I wonder if what i'm going thru to root is overriding your changes? Do you have a better way to root?
If I can get these two problems fixed the phone would be great, but if not I may have to dump it I really need my Bluetooth, and having to always remove the battery is not cutting it for me! Any help would be appreciated .

I rooted the phone by extracting the rom's boot.img and add su binary & busybox to kernel's bin and xbin folder and put superuser.apk into /system/app
actually you can extract my rom and just flash the boot.img with flashtool i provided on 1st floor to root the phone ...only if you have cwm recovery flashed already
actually using my boot.img not only give you root access right but init.d support and also some dns and sd card tweaks..
i Included some tweaks in my boot.img ...you can check /system/init.rc to check what i have added ...
The best way to solve your problem is either flashing offical rom with my boot.img or simply flash my rom...
Don't ever try to flash rom wasn't built for your phone ...you are always on risks...
If you use my rom ...WPA/WPA2 works perfect. and wifi speed is improved too ..as for the bluetooth problem ....I am currently don't have a booth headset to test with...but i will get one soon...

So what about the preloader, MBR, Recovery, and logo? Do I need these also for the flashtool, and if so can I use the ones from the 07/13/2012, Do you have the official 09/02/2012 rom that I can get them from? Appreciate the help.

* RK2918 FAQ
- boot.img in SDK2.0 based ROM
in (some of) SDK2.0 based ROMs, new format is used for boot.img(and recovery.img). it's almost same as standard android boot.img format. it has both kernel and ramdisk.
in general, unpackbootimg/mkbootimg can be used to unpack/repack for this format. but it doesn't work with boot.img for RK2918 tablets. Rockchip uses non-standard way to generate hash value which is stored in header of boot.img. if you flashed repacked boot.img, your tablet will go into recovery mode. it means we can't make customized boot.img(ramdisk).
but there is workaround. we can convert SDK2.0 boot.img into pre-SDK2.0 format.
Code:
$ unpackbootimg -i boot.img
$ rkcrc -k boot.img-zImage kernel.img
$ rkcrc -k boot.img-ramdisk.gz ramdisk.img
then flash kernel.img into kernel partition, and ramdisk.img into boot partition.

Fun,
Any chance of a Telechip port?
Cheers
Craig CMP738a boots up and results are identical to your findings.
initial bootup.
the calibration utility hung for a few seconds and asked if it should be killed. waiting allowed the procedure to complete.
started the music app. started playing a song. no audio came from the speakers but audio counter counted up. Headphones did not have sound either.
Tried connecting to wireless, says obtaining IP address... doesnt seem to want to connect to WPA2 network of mine. but it did connect fine to my WEP network.
Trying to view the gallery program for photos is very laggy.
A few videos would play in the video program but they were all like slideshows. A few would not play at all. no audio from the videos obviously.
Phone app and Camera (crashes) app are useless on this device I have.
USB Keyboard works in the usb host port.
FAT32 Flash drive doesnt seem to mount automatic.
SDCARD doesnt seem to be recognized. (nothing in /dev?)
Very cool so far tho.
Edit: since I am using the stock kernel for this device I would think I could get the hardware working... audio... video??? or maybe I need the rockchip support libraries...
fun_ is working on audio support, but video support seems to be hard to add, any help is welcome
Hi,
I have already adapted CM7 to RK2808 on Rocktab resistive screen.
Sound works and video MP4.
If these elements can help you:
http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/14838-experimentale-cyanogen-cm7-080211/
I noticed a lot of files missing .so in the lib in your system.img.
For the sensors you can try to take those CM7 for HTC G1.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=448
And rename for RK2818.
This had worked on CM6 on APAD after disabling the rotation parameters in Menu Cyanogen.
@lefeudedieu: Hi and thanks for your reply, I will try it

thank you for your report! I added CMP738A to "tested" list.
in general, it should work on most RK2818 tablets. I tested ~20 eclair/froyo firmware(boot/system.img) for other tablets on my mivvy A2, and they worked well. it should be same for my CM7.

I didn't test USB drive yet. I have only multi-card-reader, it doesn't work well on android. I'll try it when I get simple USB flash memory stick or something.
SD card should work... please show me detail if you can't investigate it.

please use your own bootloader/kernel because there is no source.
audio will work, but I didn't do anything yet.
to support hw video, libstagefrighthw.so for RK28 is needed. if you find it, please tell me.

7.You will see two more app was installed in your phone that means root phone successfully.
After successfully rooted, it will install root explorer.apk Chinese version which is rather useless for installing Market because it's all in Chinese. Thus, you need to download this "ES File Explorer" in order to put Google Play into the system folder. People who have a problem when installing Google Play by using apk, for example: Error processing purchase [DF-BPA-13]
Here is how to install a new and working Google Play Store:
1. Download "Vending.apk" from the same mediafire folder above.
2. Copy Vending.apk to \system\app\ folder in your phone by using ES File Explorer in root explorer mode with system file mounted.
3. Change permission of Vending.apk to Read/Write for Owner; Read for others (rw-r--r--)
4. Shutdown your phone.
5. Switch on your phone, you will see Google Play Store app, and Enjoy !
*UPDATE 2* Here is a custom firmware ( most of functions are working and rooted ) , all credits to yiminghung and angelobiz, as usual general instruction and faster links are brought to you by zBeYuz
0. How To Flash Haipai Noble I9220 Firmware On YouTube By Angelobiz
1. Before upgrade to this firmware, remember to backup all your apps using My Backup or Titanium Backup so that we can restore those apps later.
Download ADB driver if you have not installed it ( Tested on Windows 7 )
You must have debug usb active in your phone. this driver need for use adb command example for root script or use MTP function.
2. Download firmware + flashing tool + drivers from here: May 7 Firmware With New System.img
OR Only Driver For Haipai I9220: Drivers
3. Unrar the firmware, turn off your phone and take the out battery, then plug the phone into your PC.
4. Install the driver from the firmware folder that you unrar before, then plug out the phone.
5. a) Go to Flashtool folder and run SPMultiPortFlashDownloadProject.exe
b) Choose Factory Database --> Setup data source file: "MTK_DATABASE.mdb"
c) Choose File --> Open download agent file: "MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin"
d) Choose Scatter File: "MT6575_Android_scatter_emmc.txt" in Firmware folder.
e) Choose the figure same as the picture: SmartPhone MPD.jpg, which can be found in Firmware folder.
6. Make sure the phone turned off and the battery was taken out. Click Start All and plug your phone into the PC then wait about 5-10 minutes for the flashing process to finish ( Write OK ! ).
7. After it is done, we are good to change the IMEI. However, before that try to turn on the phone to see whether the phone is working or not.
8. If everything is ok, excepted IMEI was missing, download IMEI Changer Tool from here: IMEI Changer For Mtk6575
9. Unrar, install the program and run SN_STATION, which can be found on your desktop. Follow the instruction in the Chinese manual, but we only need to follow the picture in that manual.
The file "Modem Database" and "AP Database" is in firmware folder. You need to choose exactly the file that you see in the picture.
10. Write down two IMEIs on the back of your phone ( you need to take the battery out to see it ).
11. Again turn off your phone and take the battery out, then plug the phone into your PC, but this time we need to put the battery back in very quickly as soon as we see:
"COM port searching and preloader handshake ok" on SN Writer Log.
11. Wait until "Write Result Indicator" becomes green, then the IMEI has changed successfully.
OR you can try to change your IMEIs by using ZOPO IMEI ( Thanks to colouriste )
1. REMOVE SIM CARD(S) FIRST !
2. Check "Dual Imei"
3. Type in original IMEI #'s 1 & 2 and then
4. Click "Write"
Enjoy the new firmware with GPS working, wifi improved, front camera working, beautiful font and more...

Reboot your phone"
If you are stuck at Booting Screen, please try those tips below ( For UPDATE 4 Only ): by zBeYuz :laugh:
1. Did you forget to extract your system.zip in firmware stock 05 June folder ?
I just found out earlier that I totally forgot about it .
Just extract that file you will get system.bin then delete system.zip and start to flash the firmware normally. ( Booting up will take about 3-5 minutes after it is done ).
If the phone is still stuck please consider the next step...
2. One more thing to take note, I am using different flash tool from angelobiz:
You can refer how to flash with this flash tool here:
0. Driver must be installed: http://www.4shared.com/rar/9onOaDl5/Driver_New.html? ( Please refer to UPDATE 2 for more details )

2. a) Go to Flash tool folder and run SPMultiPortFlashDownloadProject.exe
b) Choose Factory Database --> Setup data source file: "MTK_DATABASE.mdb"
c) Choose File --> Open download agent file: "MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin"
d) Choose Scatter File: "MT6575_Android_scatter_emmc.txt" in Firmware folder.
e) Choose the figure same as the picture (Setting f/r SmartPhone MPD.jpg), which can be found in Firmware folder.
3. Make sure the phone turned off and the battery was taken out. Plug the phone into the PC and wait about 5-10 minutes for the flashing process to finish ( When you see it becomes green and states that "Write OK" ).
*UPDATE 5* ( Quote from angelobiz )

Tips + Tricks:
1. Thanks mikeysteele: "One thing I noticed after installing Set CPU is the kernel defaults to the Performance Governor. This means the CPU is always running at the maximum frequency so that might explain the poor battery life. I changed it to the On Demand governor and my battery life has improved."

FIGHTING !!!
Hi I would like to update some information about this phone,
1. The resolution of the screen is 800x480.
2. The original battery with 2800mAH capacity is so so, normal usage about 1 -2 days. On the battery stated that the cell made in Japan, yet finished in China.
3. The phone comes with the case with Samsung logo on it, together with a screen protector (not really good).
4. Additional infomation:
a) The front camera is on the left hand side, which is quite bad, because the Galaxy Note's is on the right side.
b) 3.5mm audio port is very depth, I have no idea why, so normal headphone or earphone like Beats Monster,for example, will be loose. But we still can use the one comes with the phone.
c) Camera is 8Mp and the picture looks quite nice if there is enough light.
d) It runs very smooth without any issues.
e) There is no touch pen.
f) Android 4.0.3 without Google Play or Market, Youtube, Google Map.
g) The camera sometime has a noise, like tac tac, when the apps need to use it ?!
At the end ? I still like it and I will try to update other good and bad points later if I can find any
*Update on 17/05/12*
h) After a long usage, the phone using original rom sometime can't rotate the screen even the "auto rotate option" was on.
--> Solution: Remove the battery and put in back in 30s, the phone will be functional as normal.

Please share this with us!
I received this same device today. It is not dual core, see: http://dualsim-smartphone.com/img/smartphone/i9220_mtk6575_dualsim_8.jpg
If any vendor claims it is so, what they are referring to is that it has both a 'normal' cpu plus a graphics chip. This is normal and its not the same as dual core!
Neither is the display qHD, as that would be 960x540. This device is 800x480. The display is... mediocre. I don't find the low density to be an issue, but a grainy texture is visible on light areas, e.g. the background in the Messaging app. Colour accuracy is also pretty bad: you get what you pay for.
FWIW I arrived here by googling DF-BPA-13 as I have the same issue. My temporary solution is to load apks onto the microsd on my old phone, then install those through "File Manager"
Thank you, guys. I will update my post above.
Btw, Does anybody hear anything about customised and rooted rom for this phone ?
To richardkemp, can you teach me how to recognize a dual-core phone ?
I thought all the mtk6575 phones were the dual-core phone.
Thanks in advanced.
@zbeyuz: The picture I linked above is from the link you provided in your first post. The first line of the results on the left hand screen shows "Number of cores: 1". Further the vendor correctly lists the chipset as the Mediatek MTK6575. Googling this might bring you (eventually!) to Mediatek's product page for this chipset. You can be sure that if it were actually dual core, the manufacturer would want to tell you about it: they mention no such thing.
Something I noticed while browsing chinese phone websites was that different sellers would provide different specifications for the same devices. Some would claim that a chip was dual core, by counting the presence of a separate main processor and graphics processor as if it was 'dual core'), and some would claim higher chip speed, e.g. 1GHz main processor + 500mhz graphics processor = 1.5GHz total. This is misleading and nothing more than a sales tactic.
It's a shame there's so much misinformation, the vendor I purchased my Haipad from marketed it as having an AMOLED screen, which it plainly doesn't.
As for ROMs, I'm gonna get stuck in to some ROM cooking once my exams are over, but that won't be for another month. In the mean time, I sure would appreciate any tips on getting root. To save anyone checking, SuperOneClick doesn't work.
Additional info on the device:
- Screen is capable of detecting 5 simultaneous multitouch points
- (In the UK at least) Network location does not work. Google maps cannot find my location from cell towers, or from my Wifi. GPS does work however.
- My device came without Android market installed, and as mentioned above, does not work once it is installed.
- Either the proximity sensor or the light sensor (top left by the front camera) flashes faint red constantly when the screen is on. Not a big issue but slightly distracting. The values reported by the prox sensor are just 0 and 1, no middle ground.
- The light sensor reports only 3 light levels: 160, 1200 and 2600. This makes automatic backlight pretty rubbish.
- The speed of the phone is fine - I will add some benchmarks later. Right now it's a pain in the butt since I can't get the benchmark apps from the market.
- WiFi signal seems weaker than I'm used to - my reference devices are my desktop PC, my Fujitsu ST5112 Win7 tablet, my (retired) HTC Desire, and my girl's Samsung Galaxy Y Pro and Asus Win7 Ultrabook. These all received moderate to good WiFi signal in my room from my WNDR3700 N router, all capable of streaming video at this distance. The Haipad on the other hand shows weak signal in the notification bar, and subjectively it is much slower than when it is downstairs nearer the router, a bit of a disappointment here.
- Lots of info on the device is available by starting the "EngineerMode" activity belonging to the "EngineerMode" package. This can be done by making a homescreen shortcut with a third party launcher (eg Nova), and choosing to add an activity shortcut. I recommend only look, don't modify any settings in case you break something!
- I don't know if it's just me but I find the overscroll elasticity way too 'loose'. If I flick a list hard and it hits the end, it takes a long time for the list to settle into the correct position. I look forward to being able to tweak this...
- The battery seems to charge quite slowly. I know it's large so getting to full charge would take longer than with a standard battery, but I am used to large batteies - I used a 2200mAh battery in my HTC Desire and I'm pretty sure it charged faster (using the same charger). Of course a factor in this will be that I have had the device active with the screen on almost constantly, so a lot of power is being diverted to that.
- My phone is capable of connecting to my network (t-mobile)'s proper 3G service, but seems to sometimes choose a 2G service instead, even when there is just as good 3G signal.
Will update this with more as I think of them.
zbeyuz, you say your camera is on the left, I presume you mean the front camera? the main/rear camera is right in the middle.
@richardkemp: Thank you for your quick reply. I did mean the camera in the front is on the left. The main camera is right in the middle, yes.
However, last time, when I tried to put on the Galaxy Note's case, the main camera didn't fit in the right position of the case. Maybe, because the screen was bigger than the real Galaxy Note's, I think ?
Update: The default browser of phone ran quite fast even there was a low wireless signal, but the browser didn't have back and forward button, is that right ?

7.You will see two more app was installed in your phone,that mean root phone successfully.
After successfully rooted, it will install rootexplorer.apk Chinese version which is rather useless for installing Market because it's all in Chinese. You should be able to find Filexpert.apk from the web, and install it.
Here is how to install Google Play Store:
1. Download Vending.apk from http://downloads.androidadvices.com/apks/Vending.3.3.12.apk
2. copy Vending.apk to \system\app\ folder in your phone by using Filexpert in RW mode
3. change permission of Vending.apk file to Read/Write for Owner; Read for others
4. shutdown your phone.
5. switch on your phone, you will see Google Play Store app, and enjoy!
Did anyone mange to get GPS working ? I tried with Google Maps, but fail.
Thanks a bunch bthoven. I took the liberty of tidying up the script a bit, and including the latest Google Play Store and an English root file manager (Filexpert, as you suggested).
I put it on mediafire: http://www.mediafire.com/?qnmvebaa3k8usjw
Same instructions as before, just extract the archive and run TPSparkyRoot.bat with your phone connected by usb cable, and USB debugging mode enabled. If you wish you can disable USB debugging mode once this process is done.
Beware that the play store I included is the mod version from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1582422, to allow you to access apps without region restrictions. In future we can properly set the phone's region in build.prop should remove the need for this temporary fix. That's for another day..

Yes, you can.
Mine is i9220+ model, ICS. I got a root script from my vendor. Very easy to root.

[ROM] Custom Rom For ChaCha - GB

Hello everyone!
Finally, I am satisfied with my chacha. I was constantly shifting between stock custom rom and cm roms. In stock rom everything works but automatic backlight settings are just terrible (especially dim threshold and keyboard light settings) and status bar is bigger than in cm roms (32px vs 25px). Cm roms have all of this but there are other things that still need improvement (front cam, some stability issues etc.). Therefore I decided to create my own mod of stock rom. It is based on Europe RUU 1.3.3 android 2.3.3. I couldn’t find anywhere 2.3.5 Europe rom but to be honest I don’t see any difference between the two. There are two versions:
1. Full sense rom: Link
What is different: rooted, added busybox, support init.d, dta2sd included (you need to partition your sd to ext2 or ext3 after installation and enter dta2sd commands from terminal emulator – google for the commands if you don’t know them), changed the ugly calculator app, added file explorer, added latest play store, Flash player 11 is working. I haven’t removed any apps because in this version I wanted to leave that to the user according to his/her own preferences. Status bar is smaller (more space on the screen) and I themed it a little, removed charging icon (I know that it is charging because phone’s led is orange ). Automatic brightness is tweaked (added lower brightness level, lowered the max brightness of the f button, and added one level for the keyboard lights (sometimes, in stock roms, I couldn’t see my keyboard clearly and the damn lights just wouldn’t turn on so I had to do this tweak as well). And rom is fully deodexed.
2. Stripped rom (no sense): Link
What is different: rooted, added busybox, support init.d, dta2sd included (you need to partition your sd to ext2 or ext3 after installation and enter dta2sd commands from terminal emulator – google for the commands if you don’t know them), changed the ugly calculator app, added file explorer, added latest play store, removed sense, added widget locker, holo launcher, removed a lot of bloatware (at least, bloatware for me), f button is not assigned (I’ll leave that to the user, I use it to turn my screen off but didn’t changed it to this since several people reported issues). Same automatic backlight and status bar tweaks like in the sense rom and it is also deodexed.
3. Stripped rom (odexed): Link
What is different: Same as in stripped rom with the exeption of these: odexed (now 120mb free out of the box), status bar icons have an ICS look and color (wifi, signal, data, bluetooth etc.), notification toggles app added (fully functional and works great, just in the settings set it as an on-going notification and as old in order to be always on top; it has many different icons and styles and colors are changable as well, really nice app), fb button is set to turn screen off, dta2sd not included, different backlight values.
Automatic backlight and status bar tweak for odexed version: Link
Automatic backlight and status bar tweak (sense and stripped deodexed): Link
Flash Player 11: Link
Instructions:
1. Reboot into recovery; wipe data/factory reset; mounts and storage/format system; install from sd card; choose and install your rom; reboot your phone; finish your first boot setup.
2. Reboot into recovery; install from sd card; choose and install backlight.zip; reboot your phone.
3. Install flash player apk; reboot phone.
That’s it. Hope that someone will like it.
Sorry for the poor screenshots.
Regards
P.S. I am not going to support these mods. Everyone is invited to use them and do with them whatever you want. So please don’t ask me does it support this, does it support that, can you do this, can you do that. For me, it is perfect and I don’t need to do or change anything. Everything is working for me. I just wanted to share it with you. I hope that you can understand this.
Edit: I used this guide (thanks kylon) to improve wifi signal range and it worked for me, so I am going to share these settings with you. Mke sure you do this with your WiFi off. Here is what you have to do:
1. Copy your calibration file (found in proc in the root of your phone) to the sd card (it is best to do all steps with root explorer) and download from the attachments framework.jar (here is a link for an odexed version - extract jar and odex files) and symlinkv2.zip.
2. Move the calibration file to system/etc and set permissions as they are set in the screenshot.
3. Reboot into recovery and install symlinkv2.zip.
4. Open calibration file in system/etc (again, best with root explorer) and change this line: rssi_offset=0 into this: rssi_offset=-30
Delete created bak file if you are using root explorer.
5. Copy downloaded framework.jar (I already modified it according to the offset - 30, and if you are using odexed version copy both jar and odex files) to system/framework and set permissions according to the screenshot. Reboot your phone.
6. Done.
This trick did wonders for me and my wifi, hope it will help you as well. If it doesn't, try different values both in calibration file and framework.jar according to the original thread.
Cheers.
Looks noice
Is it faster/smoother than the stock rom? I would go back to the stock rom if it wasn't so hard to configure and it wasn't so damn sluggish compared to CM7/CM9.

Every rom that I use is fast enough for me. Even the unmodified stock. I just wanted to get rid of some apps that are obsolete for me, and I needed to improve backlight settings because when it is night the original settings don't dim the lights enough which really hurts my eyes and I hate that because I have to manually dim. In this rom I don't have that issue. Lights dim automatically.
Although, I found out today that there is an issue with the dta2sd, or maybe the kernel itself. DTa2sd moves my apps and dalvik to sd-ext, clockworkmod creates a backup of sd-ext in a backup folder, and when I restore it my rom just will not mount my sd-ext on boot after that, thus I need to do a fresh install. I would appreciate if someone has an idea why this happened? It is not an issue for me, since I am going to use this rom for a while, but I would like to fix it for the others. When I don't use dta2sd there are no issues. I looked in init.rc in ramdisk, but couldn't find anything unusual. This happened to me with Void rom as well, so I really don't know where to start regarding this.
Regards
Edit: I have been using recovery for a different phone. I just realized this and now, with the proper recovery, everything is restoring fine.

I don't know about data2SD, but I use link2SD, and that works perfectly but with the stock rom, you have to format the sd-ext partition in ext2 rather than ext4, and you can't do it with clockworkmod either, cos it doesn't format it properly :/ you have to use a tool like gparted (if you're a linux user) or some windows/mac equivalent to format it properly
Wow that does look pretty nice.thanks man.

Stripped with full stock Facebook Button Functionallity
Great work. This is a solid setup. Thanks for the hard work.
I appreciate that you left the F-Button unassigned for the end user, but is there a way to get back to stock functionallity using your Stripped Rom?
Thank you.

Unzip Stripped Rom, add attached apks to system/app and attached chacha-keypad.kl (unzip the keypad file) to system/usr/keylayout. Zip it and flash it. Let me know if it works.

Thank you so much for the exceptionally quick response. Unfortunately I ran into an error. Let me walk you through what I did.
1. Dowloaded Sripped Rom, and all the files in the previous post.
2. I unzipped the Rom on my desktop
3. I inserted each of the files in their respective folders
4. Zipped the Rom back up
5. Transferred to SD
6. Booted to Recovery mode and tried to flash.
Here is what I got ....
CWM-based Recovery v5.0.2.7

That is weird. I just tested it, and it worked for me. Maybe you zipped it with high compression or sth. Try with normal compression. If that doesn't work, I will upload zip for you later today. I use recovery 5.0.2.8, but I don't think that it matters.
Edit: Here is the link - Link
Flash Player Stopping
Stripped down ROM is great - now have more room for downloading apps.
One problem I've come across on this ChaCha is that Flash Player stops working (returns to home screen) after around 2 seconds of playing anything.
Anyone else had a similar problem?

As you can see from the screenshot below I don't have that issue. Try different flash player for armv6 devices. There are few, just google it.
dta2sd
Little suggestion. If you are planning to use this rom for a longer time, after your setup, copy your data from your sd card to your computer, go into clockworkmod recovery, in advanced options partition your sd card (I set sd-ext to 256, don't need more) and reboot. After that download terminal emulator from play store. In terminal type this:
su (then press enter and allow superuser permissions)
a2sd reinstall (enter and wait for your phone to reboot. It will take some time)
After it is booted enter this:
su (enter)
a2sd cachesd (press enter and wait for your phone to reboot. It will take some time).
The end result you can see in the attached screenshot. After installing all my apps I still have over 120mb free.
Of course, after everything is done copy your data back to sd card.
Regards
Added wifi tweak to the first post. It works for me, hopefully it will work for you as well.

languages included in europe rom
What languages are included in this ROM?
Thx!
Thanks for this rom, great daily use
Great Rom, Thank you!
This is the best ChaCha rom I have used so far. Everything works great super fast flash even works!
YouTube can play 240p with no lag, any higher and it will.
BBC iplayer crashes but I have yet to find a rom that bbc iplayer will work on when it comes to the ChaCha.
Perfect rom but can u create a RTL fix for arabic support ?
thanks.

Mtk6575 star n8000 guide official roms and custom roms

MTK 6575 STAR N8000 GUIDE AND BEST CUSTOM ROM INSTALLATION GUIDE.
<ul>
<li>First off I started this thread to seperate the current thread for this phone that is riddled with question and answeres and it is super difficult to find what you need to find in the thread. I am writing this guide and thread to give back to the forum for the many days and hours I spent finding everything I needed to find, to root, flash and mod this phone properly. My hopes are with my knowledge on the subject you wont have to spend hours of fruitless searching like I did to find what you need. I'd like this thread to stay uncluddered with multitude of questions if you have them, message me or go to this thread here and post please: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1695210&page=96
<li>I would like for anyone finding new ROMS, making custom firmwares for this phone to please add them here to begin a nice list of ROMS custom or official for people to be able to find them in one place.
<li>First off i'd like to give credit were credit is due. Shout outs to;
angelobiz
Bruno Martins
Kyrie1965
sas007
and anyone else I may be forgeting I appologize
The Guide
<li>Follow Bruno Martins guide for setting up sp flasher here: http://bm-smartphone-reviews.blogspot.it/2012/05/mt6575-flashing-tutorial.html#comment-form
<li>​Just some notes and observations that were not mentioned in his guide that will help. In order to install the drivers try right clicking the driver for your system and selecting install. If that doesn't work here is what you do. Turn off your phone, take the battery out, put it back in (if you don't do this it will just show a charging symbol) now plug it in, it should attempt to install the drivers and fail, at this point go to your start button, search programs and files and type device manager, when it comes up select the one with an exclamation point and right click it, select update drivers, point it to the driver folder and then your operating system folder, i.e. vista, windows 7. If the attempt to install does not work download http://narod.ru/disk/57204199001.bb08022cc3658b67af84bc83bd330b0c/20120705_e1808_v75_jbl1.zip.html extract the folder.
<li>Download http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?htx4lkktne1jmzg recovery image and place and replace the recovery in the folder above.
<li>Do not have your phone connected to your computer, open sp flashtool downloaded from Bruno martins guide select scatter-loading on the right select the scatter file in the extracted folder, deselect everything but the recovery i.e. only have recovery selected! Click the download button.
<li>Turn off your phone, remove the battery, put the battery back in plug in your phone, it should now attempt to install drivers, again it will fail, start, search programs and files, device manager, right click the one with the exclamation mark, select update, select driver folder, select your windows version, yes on any warnings, now installed.
<li>NOTE: I recommend never plugging in your phone until you hit the download button and it says searching with sp flashtool. It doesn't react if it's plugged in before then.
<li>O.K. So at this point you should have your drivers installed and recovery as well. Almost there.
So next download http://www.sendspace.com/file/oj1fv2 2 gb internal memmory and 500 mb external. Essentially what this zip does is make your phone have 2 gigs of internal space and 500 mb external instead of 500 mb internal and 2 gigs external, super cool.
Don't do anything yet though.
<li>Next download http://www.sendspace.com/file/uj3jqx This is the ultimate rom I spent some time on for our phones, it's android 4.06 while it's not orriginally mine I fixed a lot of issues and made it much, much, better and pre-rooted with buisy box.
<li>Next download http://www.sendspace.com/file/7yfizd That's right GOOGLE NOW fully working, really cool, works perfect you'll love it!
<li>Now that you have them downloaded put them on your SD card. Here is were people kept telling me if your external doesn't work you can just put it on your internal Sd card. DON”T DO IT! If your external doesn't work you put a smaller one in a 2 gig works nicely, I had a 16 gig and it wouldn't read, had an old 2 gigger laying around and read it just fine. Heres why you don't use the internal, your flashing the internal memmory!! It will mess everything up!
<li>That said, files on the sd card put it in your phone.
<li>Press power while holding the up or + volume, release power continue to hold the volume and you'll eventually go into recovery menu.
<li>Use volume to navigate power to select.
<li>Select wipe data/factory reset, confirm.
<li>Select wipe cache partition, confirm
<li>select advanced, select wipe dalvik cache, confirm.
<li>Now select install zip from sd card, choose zip from sd card and select the custom rom file, confirm.
<li>Go back and reboot, let the phone reboot to system, as a side note screen will be moving white, its just the wallpaper. After full boot up let system settle then hold power and select recovery.
<li>Once back in recovery select install zip from sdcard, choose zip from sdcard and select the 2 gig zip, install.
<li>Select choose zip from sd card and select the google now zip and install, now reboot your phone, and love the awesomeness. By the way it's just google in your app dawer or choosable when you select the microphone on your home screen.
FLASHING OTHER ROMS
<li>There are two different types of ROMS you can flash.
<li>Official-These are official builds and releases made for your phone. These will be flashed by using sp flashtool. Now our phones also have unique hadware sometimes different from phone to phone. Chinese are pretty infamous for mixing and matching hardware. That being said you need to have software settings set for your particular hardware. You do this by using a particular software called SP MDT which you can download here: http://www.sendspace.com/file/6kee8d When you download the file run it. Select your scatter file, then select the button with the question marks, select unlock, the first one on the left is for your rear camera, middle is for front and finally right is for your screen setting which most people have trouble with and think they bricked their phone. The only way to truly test this is trial and error, if your screens normal you''ve selected the right screen setting, if your cameras work they are also on the right setting. Now close SP MDT and it auto saves the settings for you and use sp flashtool as normal.
<li>Custom-These are modded and themed developer ROMS, these are installed by flashing from recovery and generally do not effect your screen and camera settings because the do not contain uboot data.
Troubleshooting
<li>Don't flash NVRAM and UBOOT if your phone already works fine with cameras and LCD screen!
<li>My phone will not connect to install drivers- Many methods have been mentioned, but the one that works is-power your phone off, take out the battery wait 5 sec, put battery back in, now plug in your phone to the pc, it should attempt to install drivers and fail, go to start then type in the search box device manager, select it, right click the one with the exclamation mark, choose update. If that doesn't work, run sp flashtool select your scatter file choose what you want to install, select download button, now follow the steps provided above and plug in your phone. Also The cord that you use to pluggin to your computer may be the issue, if it does not transfere files when you plug it in normally then it wont work for the drivers, some of them are charge only I found that out myself when two of mine didn't work.
<li>My sd card can't mount in recovery-Most likely cause SD card is incompatible i.e. too big, use a smaller 2 gig card, do not use internal memmory as others suggest, it can mess things up and I advise against it.
<li>SCREEN PROBLEMS! Psychedelic colors, black, white, gray and others. CAMERA PROBLEMS! No camera, wont focus etc. Etc.... You need two programs spflashtool found here: http://www.sendspace.com/file/bh81se and SP_MDT found here: http://www.sendspace.com/file/6kee8d You also need an official firmware. Open SP_MDT go to the box that says scatter file, point it to your official firmware scatter file, then click the box with all the question marks, press unlock, the first option is your rear camera, the second option is your front facing camera, the last option is your lcd settings which make it look normal (not phsychedelic and wacky). Now these settings vary from phone to phone so you just have to trial and error them, basically if your screen is right, the seting is right, if your camera works the setting is correct. Now you can close the SP_MDT don't worry it saves your settings for you even though you just close it. Go into SP Flash tool Now you can flash the whole ROM but you don't have too, you only need to select UBOOT it will give you a warning it's perfectly fine, thats all you need to flash to fix your settings, and it wont mess up your current ROM.
Official Roms
<li>Flash With SP Flash tool, Do Not Check UBOOT or NVRAM Unless you have already messed up camera and LCD settings in which case you need to follow the troubleshooting section.

Feel Free to add more, as will I. If you like this thread feel free to thank me if you really like it please DONATE thanks.
NICE
Wow, thanks for putting the time into making a comprehensible thread. Cant wait to get some free time to root my n8000. How's the battery life in the ROM and are there any bugs? will report back if i run into any issues.
Hello
what is the point of having two threads for the same device.?
why did you not just post this there in the correct place?
surly it is much better to have one place to go to for all the answers and to ask, the N8000 thread has developed as the device has
you will just be adding to others confusion
good luck.
If you visit any of the other threads Of different phones they actually contain multiple threads which keep things uncluttered, so that people can find what they need that was my goal with this thread. They don't just contain one huge single thread.
Sent from my N8000 using xda app-developers app
thanks for your work!one question: your rom is good with battery? is it ondemand or performance dispatcher?
Incompatible apps
Thanks for the guide I've now got the 4.0.6 Rom on my phone. one problem, the play store says a lot of apps aren't compatible with my phone. I'm assuming this is because its a 4.0.6 Rom is there anyway to make the play store think you have 4.0.4 so it will let you download them or any other way to download these supposedly incompatible apps?
there is no android 4.0.6 this rom is based on android 4.0.3

Okay I've now tried a 4.0.4 Rom and its still saying loads of apps are not compatible when downloading from google play? These apps worked fine when I was on the stock 4.0.3 Rom.
sendspace.com/file/uj3jqx was 4.0.6 is a moded version of android 4.0.3 the build.prop file has been edited 4.0.6 there is a build.prop file somewhere that lets google play compatible with all apps.

I have tried all of the moded roms from the Russian and Chinese sites where all these roms come from if the dpi is set to anything over than 240 google play most apps are not compatible check your build.prop file /system there will be something like this ro.sf.lcd_density=190 delete it then try google play again if you want a different dpi you need a moded google play apk

This is really important to note. Newer phones have JBL2, and the JBL1 stuff at worst soft-bricks them and at best takes away auto-focus from the camera (still working on this, but seems permanent for now).
waiting
Actually the rom was created by alexey arsenev, will work on jbl2 but need to flash with jbl2 boot image.. But autofocus will not function..

i did everything in your post i still have the blurry image and to worsen the problem after reboot my phone language is in russian
google now
I've watched the "noob" video for posting - but not really sure if this is the right place to post. Please don't shout at me
I've watched a few videos about getting "google now" working on ICS - but I have little Android experiece and do not want to break the phone. Has anybody done it successfully on this ? can u point me at a failsafe utube video (or something else) to get this done without my loss of £120GBP ? Thx...

Yes -- it works! I've done it.
I'm sorry that you're not going to find one step-by-step guide for this phone, but all the info is here.
This is a very hard phone to "break" in a permanent sense, but I'd read as much as you could stand before you began to avoid headaches that others have had before you. Between the two threads here, there are 150 or so pages of info. Especially important things to note: Make sure you have the right phone (not quite as easy it sounds) and make sure you note all the current details of your software before you get under the hood.
In order to use Google Now, you'll first need to root your phone and install a custom recovery (if those don't make sense, use the Google to search for an overview).
For our phone, I'd start with the first page of this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1695210
So, the question becomes: Do you have root and a custom recovery?
FWIW, Google Now is interesting but has yet to seem revolutionary to me. Seems like something that will be amazing three or four generations from now.

Stock ROM
This is the stock ROM with nothing changed in it!
DOWNLOAD
Stock ROM + CWM + Root + 1GB apps memory
This is the stock ROM with the following changes:
- Rooted (SuperUser installed)
- ClockworkMod Recovery v5.5.0.4
- Apps memory resized to 1 GB & phone storage reduced to 1.55 GB (the original are: 500 MB memory for apps & 1.77 GB phone storage)
DOWNLOAD
H7100 Hardmaster ROM II (29.04.2013)
This one is much better and faster:
- Many build.prop optimizations and fixes (!shown in the screenshots!)
- BRAVIA 2 engine installed
- The stock launcher was replaced with ADWLauncher. The phone has much better performance with ADWLauncher and it is more customizable.
- All Chinese and Weather apps removed!
- Updated to latest version: Google Play Store, Google Search, Google Maps, GMail, DocsToGo
- new apps - MTK6577 CPU Governor Switcher v18.1, Mobileuncle Tools, SD Speed Increase, Root Explorer, GPS Test
Screens:
DOWNLOAD - files for Flash Tool
If you have already installed "Stock ROM + CWM + Root + 1GB apps memory" you don't need to flash with flash tool but you can use this NAND Backup via CWM recovery:
DOWNLOAD
Follow this steps:
- extract the files in a folder. Put the folder in sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/
- reboot in recovery
- whipe data, cache, dalvik cache and system. If you don't want to loose your apps don't whipe data (but do everything else) but I can't guarantee that everything will be alright.
- don't close the recovery and go to "backup and restore". Choose "restore" and select the folder that you have put in the sdcard earlier.
- wait for the process to finish and reboot your phone
- enjoy
if you don't know how to set up your ADW launcher here is backup of good settings I made: http://www19.zippyshare.com/v/42318800/file.html
Extract the archive in the sdcard root directory, go to the ADWLauncher settings -> restore and select the backup.
!!! Please don't mirror my files! If you need mirror just ask me to do it !!!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
!!! The ROMs are made to be flashed using SP Flash Tool! Here you can find good tutorial that explains how to flash ROMs: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1982587 . Note that before flashing you must turn off your phone, unplug USB, take off the battery and put it again! After that you just hit "Download" and plug the phone in the USB cable. It worked for me, it should work for you too (of course if you have successfully installed the drivers)!
MT65XX Preloader drivers (you need them if you want to flash anything on your phone): http://www57.zippyshare.com/v/12582529/file.html (if the link is dead please PM me and I will fix it)
This tutorial shows how to properly install the preloader drivers!
And don't forget to whipe the data and cache after flashing!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BACKUP / REMOVING PREINSTALLED STOCK CHINESE APPS
You can use MTK Droid Tools to remove the Chinese apps: MTKDroidTools 2.4.3
If some of the apps are still on the phone or you just want to remove another stock app you can use the RootExplorer which is in the phone to remove them from /system/app/ (of course don't forget to set the permissions to Read/Write).
If you want to use MTKDroidTools allow unknown sources and USB debugging on your phone! You will also need ADB driver:
Google ADB driver: http://www39.zippyshare.com/v/98470792/file.html
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Since 2 people have reported a phone brick after successful flashing (or after unsuccessful flashing) I would like to give you an advice:
Do not flash PRELOADER and DSP_BL. Just uncheck them and flash the rest images.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That's all you need! If you have any problems and questions don't hesitate to post them in this thread
Enjoy and don't forget to click "Thanks" if I helped you!

I am not sure if sceenshots are needed.. this is just the original rom but rooted, CWM installed and the apps memory extended to 1GB. I am currently using it and there are no problems. But if you need I will post a few screenshots that would show you the changes in this rom

Can you post front and back pictures of your phone? They're a lot of H7100 phones (Feiteng, HDC, Start, etc..) out there . So people can compare.

The thread title clearly says that it is Feiteng. And I should also mention that the phone's RAM is 1GB (but i think that the rom should work on the 512MB version too). Anyway I will post a photo of the front and back of the phone and also the sticker under the battery. BTW screenshots are ready and updated in the main post

Little things like 1GB vs 512MB of Ram, could make a difference.

I am 100% sure that the ROM works on 1GB RAM devices, I have made it using 1GB model and it was tested on a few phones. That's the only thing that I can guarantee. I haven't mentioned anything about the 512GB RAM model so ff anyone who haves it and wants to try my custom ROM he would do it on it's own risk!

I don't experience you problems, so other people who used my rom. The only thing I can tell you to flash the rom again, boot the phone into recovery mode, whipe data, cache, dalvik cache and battery stats. After that reboot the phone and everything should work just fine. I have flashed the rom myself a few times and it works fine every time.
Probably you had this root problem because you haven't wiped the things I mentioned above. Before I made a backup of this ROM I personally tried root explorer and it successfully got the superuser rights

Sorry, perhaps I explained bad. ROOT works fine but on reboot the ROOTED startup apps do not apply the desired changes. For bluetooth, have you tried? should I send it in warranty?

Well I have MT6577 CPU governor and SD Speed Incrase and both apply successfully on every reboot, I don't know why you have such problem. About the bluetooth ,, I have trued only sanding files and it works, I haven't tried bluetooth speakers or any other devices.
Try flashing the rom again following the instructions I gave you.
Try something else. Run MTKDroidTools and reboot your phone in recovery mode.
Do this operation
actually this operation makes permanent root to your phone every time it reboots. I think that I did this when I was making the rom but try it. If it fixes your problem it looks like I forgot to do it and I will have to make another rom
ok I'll try and let you know, thanks. see that the users tips are always helpful?
we should populate this forum or create a tread for H7100. who knows if anyone helps us also to understand what happens to the bluetooth if you want I can make a video. is this dynamics. switch on bluetooth; I pair the headset; everything continues to work fine; make or receive the first call; all audio becomes very slow until you restart. Anyway I heard others on other forums have this problem. I hope both software. now I try to do the test your reverse: now I try to send any file with bluetooth and see if the sound problem reoccurs.
EDIT: Then, bluetooth issue is only with headset. i tried to send some files to another 2 devices and after worked fine.
FOR ROOT: during the period when we posting here, I installed the androida's rom and supersu (I like more). NB: both the ROMs were installed the same way. installation, wipe DATA, wipe CACHE and wipe DALVIK-CACHE. well, the androida's rom root work properly at reboot.

please read my last post edited. greetings and thanks.
I use a Bluetooth headphone to listen music very often and never have experienced any problem with my H7100, I make and receive calls with it too. (Note: I'm using androidia's ROM0
I have experienced once the problem that audio goes all "slow motion" when watching youtube a long time ago(I wasn't using my headphones).
Pretty much he only problem I experienced is when I have both GPS and WIFI enabled, WIFI tends to stop working and have to reboot the phone to get it working again.
Having GPS disabled fixes this problem (I don't really use the GPS anyways since it rarely locks to a satellite..)

how to download rom0?
I have made new ROM and I updated the link in the main post. I tested it and I am 100% sure that the root works and also applies on every reboot! All features remain the same - CWM, 1GB apps memory and 1.55GB phone storage.
You can try it if you want. Personally I experience no problems at all using it, I can't tell how it would work on another phones. The problem with the Chinese phones is that even with the same model they still can be different. They can make them with different kernels. For example my phone Kernel is 3.4.0, some different H7100 models are with 3.0.31. Probably that's why androidia's rom works for some people and my rom works for others. I think that we should make one topic that includes our both ROMs
