SilverLight™ 5 - alpha !
Hi friends, sorry i'm too late than i expected. Day's passed on swiftly and i'm here to just release the alpha of Silverlight 5.
SilverLight 5 bug fixes are here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30734779#post30734779
Important feature is that it is based on Android 2.3.6 !
It has been ported from Alcated 918D [MTK 6573]
Everything works fine. (Special thanks to yasir bro for testing it !!!)
I also named it as Stock Android 2.3.6 update for Spice Mi-350n.
It is just stock, for now
Another important thing is that, I'm making this port an open-source port. Since, i saw new rom makers emerging, it would be easy for them to cook/build custom ROMs from this port.
One thing, if someone wants to use it, do give me an information and a credit in your thread !!

SilverLight™ 3
Features:
>> Based on Official Spice build v2 !(thanks to yasir bro!!)
-- If you are on Bala's ROM v1.5/1.01(or did not flash your phone by following this guide), then do please flash your phone with official build v2 using this guide. It takes a mere 7 minutes for you to flash it but it takes hours together for me to make one for v1.5. If you want, i can make one for v1.5 also, but it can't be released within one week. So, bear with me & do upgrade your phone to official v2 !!!
NOTE1: If you are on Bala's ROM v1.5, then you won't lose your apps. Just flash official v2 with the help of flashing tutorial and the flash SilverLight 3 !
NOTE2 (read this only after reading the flashing guide above): If you are upgrading, then in the flashing guide linked above, in step 5, i did it like & it worked : After loading the scatter file, with battery inserted,i connected the phone by pressing Back+Menu buttons. My pc detected it and i clicked Format->Download. I kept holding it till the red process completed and from there everything went fine and flashing was successful.

Installation Instructions (SL-v3):
NOTE: Its is highly recommended to make a complete nandroid backup(including boot.img) before installing. Do not boot your phone in between.
Also disable Signature verification every time you flash a zip because they are not signed.
1) Download 'SilverLight-3_by_balamu96m.7z'. Extract it. Then you'll have SilverLight_Part1_by_balamu96m.zip , SilverLight_Part2_by_balamu96m.zip & SilverLight_Part3_by_balamu96m.zip(These are flashable zips. So do not extract them)
Click to expand...

Let it install without any error. DO NOT TRY BOOTING.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse

THATS ALL !! You have successfully installed SilverLight™ 3 !!
Now boot your phone. First boot may take long time (even 10 minutes !), but don't worry. It will boot !!
STEPS TO ENABLE A2SD after installing the ROM:
NOTE: If you had done this already for Bala's ROM v1.5, no need to do again.
1) Make a backup of all your sdcard files in your computer because partitioning will erase all your files.
2)Now boot in recovery --> partition sdcard --> partition sdcard --> Swap size: 0mb --> Choose size of the partition that you prefer (recommended 1024mb)(not more than 1399 mb because beta 04 supports till that only)
Let it partition your sd without any error !!
[NOTE: If you are partitioning for the 1st time with recovery, the default type of the partition will be ext2 - that is what we need & with this a2sd will work .
If you have mistakenly upgraded your partition to ext3 or ext4, then use MiniTool Partition Wizard (its free) and change your partition to ext2. Only then a2sd will work.]
Now boot normally. Now with the help of A2SD GUI app, make apps to be stored in sdcard(will be on the main-screen!). Your phone will reboot once or few times. Read more about using A2SD GUI in the following 2nd or 3rd post !!
VOILA !! a2sd is working !!! You can verify/view its space with titanium backup app !!
Now you can place all your files back on your sdcard.
With recovery you can even backup your sd-ext whenever required. (sd-ext is the place where apps which you install will be stored)

SCREEN SHOTS v1.5:
SCREEN SHOTS v1.01:
NOTE:
-The android version displayed there (in Bala's ROM v1.01&v1.5) is just change in number. The actual version is 2.3.4 only !! Only you know that it is 2.3.4. For others it is 2.3.7 !!
USING A2SD GUI [For v1.5+]
'A2SD settings' on the app's main screen.
------You can choose where apps that you install should be saved either in sd-ext (sdcard partition) or your internal memory.
------ 'Zipalign on boot is off' - is recommended because the ROM is already zipaligned and doing it again on boot will take more time to boot.
------'Swap is deactivated' - I have not used it.....maybe you/anyone can try and reply !
DALVIK:
-- You can choose where Dalvik cache should be saved. Go more info on Dalvik-cache, try googling n reading the wiki about it.Other things can remain the same......
---other tabs, you yourself can read & understand !!
Some more:
One thing to remember - sd-ext is like internal memory for phone, but phone can't find how much space is used or left in sd-ext. Titanium backup will help you there......
All third-party/system apps will tell that apps are installed in phone memory......you should understand that sd-ext is also like internal memory for phone and all other apps !!
Apps should be installed normally .......but your free space in internal memory will remain the same even after installing apps.....you'll notice that ur sd-ext space will be reducing........
Phone can't find how much space is left in sd-ext but titanium backup will help you to know !!
If you find decrease in phone memory even when a2sd in enabled, use a2sd gui to reinstall all app to sd-ext.....u can also type this command in terminal emulator :
su
a2sd reinstall
More over one should not move apps to sdcard in 'application settings' when using a2sd !!
These are few things that i'm trying to add:
Trying to add few requests by some users!!
Extended Power menu with Reboot, Recovery & download - working on it.

DeOdexing is the process of re-bundling that uncompressed critical data (.odex files) back into your compressed .apk (& .jar) files, so that now all of the data is included in the .apk files necessary to run your applications without the presence of .odex files
In addition all the data is now included within the .jar files necessary to utilize your framework components without .odex files. In a DeOdexed file structure, there are no odex files present.
What is the benefit of DeOdexing?
Deodexing doesn't speed your phone up or do anything of the sort.
It is simply something that is necessary to be able to theme a stock ROM.
Theoratically it should slowdown phone but practically it is negligible.
zipaliging is the process of reorganizing the manner in which the .apk is packaged to optimized it for being parsed faster by the android OS, it is comparable if not better than the odex file structure, so you get the best of both worlds; a themed ROM and the speed of an optimized file structure.
If one can implement all things properly phone will defenately speed up.
i will also make custom rom... but in my vacation. till i will use others.

edit: already posted the ans !! any way i'm posting it !!
Harassing ?? Not at all !! i have no problem dude !!
Well, i don't think flashing will affect your phone because i'll have to do it many a times a day and not just 4 times !!
When ever i try and flash my ROM and many a time it'll get struck at boot screen. So i'll be restoring/flashing it many a times a day !
Still thats my view.....i dunno really !
Deodexing.........in simple terms it is like this:
Our phone splits the apks and jars (only system apks and jars) into '.odex' files for fast processing of those files ..........but when the app is split into .apk/.jar file and .odex file, it not possible to edit them and make changes. when those files are deodexed or when we flash a deodexed ROM, the two files, '.odex' file and '.apk/.jar' are combined together and we will have only the apk or jar file and not the .odex file.......hence it makes editing or modifying possible. Also,only because of this, deodexed ROM takes some more time to boot!!
So because of this we can say that it related to theming........that too 'native' theme and not just Launcher' theming which are provided by GO Launcher etc.
I hope you understand...........!! Now any one can easily make themes for our phone !! just edit framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk, modify,test and upload !!

[INTRODUCTION]
This ROM is based of the joined effort of a couple of devs (Ejtable, Scanno and Brucelee666) who are working on getting JellyBean working for our device. As soon as JellyBean is getting stable, my goal is also to put everything on github, just like i did with VegaCream. This way other devs can also work on this.
Please remember that I, ejtagle and brucelee666 are *NOT* professionals and do this in our spare time. We all have full time jobs and a family. So be happy that there is an Android ROM based on Android 4.1.1 / JellyBean for a device that was sold with Android 2.2 and never had an update.
We do our best to make this ROM as good as possible. With VegaCream we gave you a ROM that gave a new life to your tablet and unleashed its full potential. But we are not wizzards and there might be problems that we cannot solve or do not have time for.
[SPECIFICATIONS]
This ROM is based on AOSP 4.1.1 and the device config made by Ejtagle, brucelee666 and myself.
- INT2EXT+ (Needs a correctly partitioned SDCard)
- zRAM
- DPI is set at 120dpi
- Default JellyBean Launcher installed
- Apex Launcher installed
- Filemanager installed
- Terminal installed
- Google Apps is installed. This means that the Google base is installed and all the apps that are available in the Play Store are not installed (i.e. GMail, Maps)
- All languages that are available in AOSP are included
- Partition layout is the same as VegaCream / VegaICS beta1 / Modded stock
- /system/app, /system/lib, /system/fonts, /system/framework and /system/usr are Squashfs filesystems.
[INSTALLATION]
There are 2 methods of installation. There is a CWM recovery flashable ZIP and a NVFlash file.
I realy recommend flashing VegaBean the first time with the NVFlash version.
Before installing any version, you have to make sure that you have a SDCard that has the correct partition layout:
- First partition is a primary partition formatted as FAT32
- Second partition is a primary partition formatted as EXT4
EXT4 is a linux filesystem so you will need a program that can handle Linux filesystems when you are using Windows.
Before installing the ZIP file make sure that:
- You have the correct partition layout (if you have VegaCream installed, you have the correct layout, if not then use the NVFlash installer. This will repartition your internal memory))
- Copy the ZIP file to your SD-Card
- Boot into Recovery
- Do a FULL WIPE / FACTORY RESET
- Install the ZIP file from your SDCard
- After installing reboot the tablet.
[WORKING]
- WiFi
- Bluetooth (Tested with a A2DP headset)
- Camera
- HDMI including audio
- 3G (only fro the Huawei internal modem, usb modems may work)
- GPS not tested by me, but some say it kind of works.
[CREDITS]
- Ejtagle
- Brucelee666
- Scanno
- LeoP for his zRAM implementation
- Legionaire (for the VegaBean bootanimation)
[DOWNLOADS]
Please do *NOT* use Link2SD anymore. You do not need it. With the INT2EXT script, your apps will install on SDCard by default. Just make sure you have 2 primary partition. First partition *MUST* be a FAT32 partition. The second partition *SHOULD* be EXT4. When upgrading from a previous version, make sure your EXT partition is empty / reformatted. Also when using the NVflash version !!!

[Changelist]
[Beta 6]
- RIL updated to the latest version (3 october i think)
- updated to AOSP 4.1.2
- Added check to see if there is a second partition on the SDCard. If not INT2EXT is not excecuted (PLEASE TEST !!!)
- Updated GApps
[Beta 5]
Changes compared to Beta 3-1:
- New kernel with the following changes:
- Suspend problem solved. Tablet does not enter LP0 anymore
- Compiled with zRAM support
- zRAM modules added
- zRAM implementation from LeoP included
- RIL from ejtagle updated
[Beta 3-1]
- Included int2ext+
- Included bootanimation for legionnaire
[Beta 3]
- Latest RIL from EJTagle
- CM10 keyboard
- Stock browser with the option to set User Agent
- You can now just wipe cache and dalvik-cache when updating from a previous VegaBean version. Please remember that from other version you will have to do a full wipe / factory reset !!!
[Beta 2.2]
What has changed compared to Beta 2
- AOSP updated to JRO03L
- Latest update to the huaweigeneric RIL (from aug 27) by EJTagle
The stripped version has the following apps removed from /system/app compared to the original version:
- ApexLauncher.apk
- PlayMusic.apk
- Talk.apk
- YouTube.apk
The stripped version should give you around 10 MiB extra on /system. So if you have bad NAND problems and have problems booting (not able to) you can try this.
[Beta 2]
- HDMI audio working
- VegaBean bootanimation added by indigolemon
[Beta 1]
- Rotation really fixed and HW acceleration working
- Disable / Enable GPS would crash, fixed (thanks Eduardo)
Alpha 3:
- Rotation Fixed. Portrait mode is working correctly
- 3G files included... Sadly no 3G because of too old version of Huawei RIL. Need at least version 6 and we have version 4. So if anybody can get his / her hands on a newer version, please let us know.
Hey , very nice to see JellyBean here
I have ViewSonic 10s
I am using at this moment VegaICS , so i am thinking to upgrate it to JB. So my questions :
- kernel with hostdriver ?
- is system rewritable?? its Squashfs so i think its not (like VegaICS, no deletable apps...)
- can I update BusyBOX and Superuser ??? (always after i did it , WIFI was brocken and I lost root (VegaICS))
- is it possible to change DPI to normal 160 ??
............................
One more question about CWM
always after installing any Roms via CWM , it booted , but after first reboot/turnoff my device died... only what help is reflashing via NVflash....
So what should i flash first to use a stable-CWM (without killing device)
any suggestions
If you are still using VegaICS, I suggest you switch to VegaCream RC2. It has an NVFlash installer, so you don't have to use CWM at all. It is by far the most stable and fast ROM ever built for our devices, and is 100% feature complete.
This ROM is a beta, and if you have not experienced VegaCream RC2 yet, you should try that first and wait on this for a later release.

What a great ROM, but I've got a problem where my Viewpad don't boot. Ok, it boots the first time after installing it, but not on 2nd boot. I've tried to install it over both VegaICS and VegaCream RC2. Does anybody have a solution? I really want this ROM. I had the same problem on VegaCream in the past, but it I think it works now, but not in VegaBean. I hope I get any help...

VegaCream works now after flashing it through NVFlash. Could the boot problem have something with an uncomplete CWM or something? Like it "destroys" the important partitions?Since both VegaCream and VegaICS use an unofficial build of CWM with Touch-interface? Mabye I'll try to flash an official version and install VegaBean through there! Will report back if it works!
Nice, will test this out!

If you want to use this for a new rom go ahead. Just give the credits for the work done (also ejtagle and brucelee666)
Modifications to the standard AOSP source code can be found on my github. Also the kernel sources are there too.
They are not up-to-date yet.
If you find solutions to problems in the ROM, give them back to the community so they can also be used in other ROMS.

If you mean USB host... Yes it is... On my github there are the sources of the 3.1.10 kernel (based on the rel-15r7 version of nvidia) with the patches ejtagle made. But they are not up to date yet.
As soon as i have time i have to clean up the lunch target of beta1 and do a commit on github. Then you can fork from there and build a version for yourself. If you use the manifest file for vegabean you also get the modifications made to the framework, wpa_supplicant etc to make it all work.
See https://github.com/scanno
Again do not use it yet because they are not up to beta 1.
Thanks for the offer, but i do not have time to do a lot of work and join a development team. For the development of roms for the advent vega i would prefer and suggest that you and the Remics team go to the modaco forum and join the kernel development thread and join the efforts.
This way we have more changes of getting a very good base and from there make ROMS. The more roms to choose from, the better for the people using an advent vega.
Thx for answere, but i dont will compile it , i will use the ready zip file and edit it.
I am not a kernel-developer
thats why i asked you about team

Ok... but again all help is welcome, but you know that. Besides kernel development is done by EJtagle and not by me. He reversed engineerd most of the device specific vega stuff.
Also... /system/lib, /system/framework, /system/usr, /system/app are squashfs filesystems. To access the files in there you have to unsquash them.
do you can tell me programm on windows how to unsquash and again to squash after editing ?

Sorry... I am using Linux and it is available in the repository there. On windows I really do not know. You could Google to see if there are any hits on mksquashfs and unsquashfs. That are the tools used on Linux.
You will need to find a version that supports XZ ( LZMA2) compression. That is the compression algorithm used in vegabean.
This is needed because otherwise the ROM does not fit in the /system partition.
very nice!
7zip can do it under windows - unpack
Team Bacon presents...
Circle Battery Mod for Beans.
This battery mod was made for Beans R9, but should be adaptable to many Touchwiz based ROMs. Use APKTool and the AutoMod tool to aid in porting!
The battery icon is red from 0-15%,
orange from 16-25%,
and blue from 25-100%
See attached sample images.
Credit/Thanks:
eschelon, and pjamv5 for giving permission to utilize battery images from Synergy R52 and the Clockwork Orange theme. Be sure to thank them!
SynergyROM VZW
Clockwork Orange Theme
I highly recommend the AWESOME AutoMod tool/script by MAD Industries. Learning to use the tool will help teach modding and save a ton of time. Also, we can now easily distribute mod source files in mod packages for adaptability to similar ROMs. Be sure to visit the thread and thank MAD Industries!
Downloads:
AutoMod mod package file - CircleBatteryMod.mod
Because Bean's R9 uses Aroma to install tweaks during first ROM flash (several SystemUI.apk files in the ROM zip's clock folder), using the AutoMod tool is the ideal way to create the mod.
AutoMod Instructions (must be running linux or mac os x):
1) Run AutoMod script and perform updating if necessary (see AutoMod thread above for simple tutorial in OP)
2) Plug your phone into your computer
3) At the AutoMod main menu, select option 4 (Install a new mod package) and follow the instructions to copy the CircleBatteryMod.mod file to the specified install folder
4) At AutoMod main menu, select option 2 (Create a flashable update.zip from a mod (device specific))
5) Copy the output CWM zip (location specified by AutoMod) to your phone's internal or external sdcard
6) Reboot into recovery, Nandroid backup, and flash the zip
7) Enjoy/Profit
For those who aren't ready to dive into AutoMod, I've created a CWM zip for the "stock clock with no brightness slider" for Beans R9. Please note that making extra tweaks and changes to the mod will be much more time consuming for me in Beans R9 since it has several SystemUI.apk files for each Aroma choice (stock clock, stock clock no brightness slider, center clock, center clock no brightness slider, etc). Using AutoMod is preferred because it allows the user to make their own custom tweaks very easily.
CWM Zip - BeansR9 Circle Battery Mod (READ before downloading!)
Disclaimer:
-This is for the Verizon GS3.
-As with all XDA community provided mods, try at your own risk.
-You can get out of most jams with a Nandroid backup. It's always important to perform a backup before attempting a new mod.
-I'm not responsible for anything that goes wrong with your phone (but I seriously doubt anything will)

Deep inside DD-GB v2 (Custom ROM for Micromax A57 by dinesh77)
Deep inside DD-GB v2
================
There were few friends like Priyank Thakur, 'Deadman Akshay' & Monty Kumar faced..(Serious) Screen OFF (Deep Sleep) issue with DD-GB v2
--I confirm that the raised issue is the Valid problem.... I too faced the same
and has to be verified. In addition I have almost researched on this ROM I have interesting outcomes..please go steady..its really serious for Ninja 3 Development in future.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Success of this ROM:
I congratulate the Develope Dhinesh Kumar (dhinesh77) on successful edition of DD-GB v2
-- Yes this is definitely a Successful Custom GB ROM for Micromax A57 and was got praised by almost all at including me
-- All basic functions working perfect and no issues at all
-- All though no much build prop tweaks added but enough to get us speed and added functionality as there are required init.d tweaks
-- xloud and beats audio: sound enhancements also works up to some extent but personally I want so much insist on that
-- This ROM has got additional framework files from Sony framework to support audio enhancement.
-- You can have good gaming experience on this ROM without adding any additional Tool for the same
-- And several additional Features. For details visit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37207089
-- My overall Experience with this ROM is quite better compared to other custom ROM published till now.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- I saw apps2sd working OK with this ROM
-- apps2sd transfers all apps automatically to apps2sd partition
-- even Titanium backup apps restores in apps2sd partition and TB shows capacity of this partition when it starts
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
However folling are findings that might have stunned me:
========================================
CWM BAckup of DDGB 2 Works ???
-- CWM backup of DDGBv2 is not at all working. Someone try this..
-- When I tried CWMbackup to restore it landed up into bootlop at all 3 times; where as the same time my other CWM backup could restore my device fully..
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Re-Flashing DDGB V2 ROM is an issue for me: Very Amazing observation
-- Some how, I while trying New mods of JT along with several other apps. When I installed many things all together and got a bootloop (somehow)
-- I when failed to load CWN Recovery; tried to flash the DDGBv2 ROM itself. I tried this for 3 times but all 3 times it stuck into booloop.
-- But when I tried to Flash other ROM it worked.... I want to know the reason !!!
Expert Comments on this, Please: Jyothis Thaliath, Sree Atitde Adjstmnt, Dhinesh Kumar, Hardy Ahir, Shashank, Meet and any one who friendly enough on doing things with their devices NOTICE AND COMMENT PLEASE...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Boot Sound has been added but its not working coz, added sound is not in required format. It has to be boot.wav, shutdown.wav and android_audio.mp3 (here Dhinesh have provided all .mp3 files, so no boot sound on reboot or shutdown)
-- Note: No need to add any additional files in library or etc for getting boot audio or shutdown audio as discussed by our friend Panneer.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'Linux partition' and 'androidswap' thing working with this ROM and got Good Gaming experience with this ROM although it wasn't consistent every time and for that I dont blame this ROM but the Linux partition. I tried all this to play Temple Run 2.
-- I am still confused on this Linux partition whether it works always or sometimes. Lags still there many a times and some times its like a FISH !!!.
-- but the fact was that I created the Linux partition when I was on GINGER XF and i also configured swappaines during that time only.
-- When I tried all method to configure Linux partition with DDGB v2 I could not configure swappines and the error every time was something like " the said partition is busy"
-- To overcome that I rebooted into recovery and tried creating swappines but failed. Why I tried this coz i was successful with this method while giving demo (setting up) this linux partition on Ashish Chopra 's device (a member here) using TV8. Lol but the same method did not work for myself.( Ashish Chopra )

PLEASE MARK THIS:
Remember Friend DO NOT take my words here as a criticism on DD-GB v2. I also voted this ROM as the best till now and liked it as well. HEre my too much detailed post is to get some underneath hidden facts behind issues occurred with ROM flashing and Backups

What can be the ISSUE behind all this ????
I had several doubts and at the top of the list is: APPS2SD as Kitchen warns that apps2sd is not compatible with A57
So the Doubt List comprised of following:
1. Apps2SD
2. Added files in /system/Framework in this ROM
3. Added files in /system/bin and /system/xbin
4. 'XLoud function' or 'Beats Audio' functionality and related files in /system
5. Configuration of 'Linux Partition' and the 'androidswap' file in init.d
I really want the Developer and other experts to take this post seriously. Hope we can get something out of it...

Viloet edges first of all i want to convey my thanks for submitting review on DD_GB rom.....
``````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````
I think the major issue here is phone not booting when tried to reflashing or restoring CWM backup...
This issue is solvable when we perform additional step after reflashing or restoring rom..the step is wipe data/factory reset alone...
After that when we reboot our phone will boot normally...
Next is linux swap error:
``````` `` ``````` ``````` ```````
IN my phone i have created linux swap partition using mini tool.as third partition...However i never configured that partition using any special software like swapper2 & etc..But heavy games r working well like gta3,temple run 2 and so on..
For configuring swap I think we dont want any softwares It will got automatiically working (Solution for testing)
If it not works fell free to post reply...

small fixes would be great
Great job guys and Thanks for Rom, I am currently running this Rom. I found some problems if u may fix it would be great
-- I am unable to install facebook app in the device, I used to install the updates in the Stock Rom as the stock rom already contains the facebook. So what i have done is taken the stock rom facebook app and installed but unable to update it and even the fruit ninja, etc., It shows device is incompatible.
-- The dialer app. It doesnt show the call time and date. I have tried to replace the dialer with samsung dialer but it doesnt work ( for me ). if there is a app which shows the time and date of the call and from which sim the call comes from. that app would be great like exdialer but with this app it doesn't show what sim the call came from.
-- my humble request to please increase the ear piece volume, i dont know whether it is hardware or software problem. I have tried all the tweaks and apps which are available in market but nothing works.
Please reply me, I am ready to test the ROM, i have once bricked the phone went for hardware replacement also . he gave the hardware part which have damaged lol...
Help !!

NOTIFICATION! FOR ALL SCRIPTS CLAIMING THEY SUPERCHARGE YOUR SYSTEM (OR INSTALL SUPERCHARGER v6)NOTE: Don't be confused in difference between Performance SuperCharge or SuperCharger v6 (Here its, SuperCharger v6)
There is no script (until now) in this world that can SuperCharge a system from recovery.
The thing is:
It seems that the problem with ICS, at least according to the dev, is that the OS no longer reads ADJ values out of build.prop but rather has them stored and hardcoded in services.jar, which makes this script only be half as useful as it was before. The dev has provided a nifty way to actually change these values in services.jar, and it can be done from the comfort of your Android device, thanks to a web app created to “patch” the services.jar so that the script can take effect in full force.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Here is proper installation steps:
===================================================================
Installation - Easy as 1, 2, 3!
1. Run the NEWEST V6 SuperCharger script as always.
Note: You may get Segmentation Fault errors running the V6 SuperCharger script on ICS due to a flakey su (superuser) binary.
To resolve the issue, you can:
A) Go HERE for a fixed su binary. No more fugly segfaults! - Thanks to wraithdu
OR...
B) Go HERE and get the SuperCharger Starter Kit!
2. Patch and install services.jar - by whichever method you like best. Your options are, in order of EFFECTIVENESS:
Note: Options A, B and C require Java to be installed on your computer - Click to Verify Java Installation
Option A) Use one of the -=Ultimatic Jar Patcher Tools=- (exe or zip) which DO EVERYTHING for you "Fully Ultimatically" on DEODEX & ODEX ROMS!
Goto Step 3 if you did this!
Option B below is the next preferred method - but there's manual work involved.
Option B) Follow the complete tutorial below and use -=Ultimate Jar Power Tools=- patcher script to automate Step 5 - the actual smali editing!
There are actually 56 edits performed via script... many more than what is specified in the tutorial!
Note that the script allows you to choose the level of your Launcher's Super Strength! (BulletProof, Die-Hard, or Hard To Kill)
Also be sure to have the necessary smali files in the same folder as the script!
ODEX ROMS - ALL Stock ROMS are ODEX (I think... ) So if you have a services.odex file, press the button!
All but Step 5 is automated on Windows with a batch script courtesy of rexstor .
See [Guide][Batch][Odex Rom only!] To get another 50% v6 Supercharged script for ICS!
So you'd run the batch script, and for the editing, run my Ultimate Jar Power Tools patcher script in Step 5
Goto Step 3 if you did this!
Option C) Follow the complete tutorial below without using any Patcher tool.
This is actually pointless to do - there are less edits and it's more work And the laziest people should just do D) below lol
Goto Step 3 if you did this!
Option D) Use the latest Update 9 RC* and select ICS Service Centre's Automatic Transmission! (OUT OF DATE)
Seemless webapp integration and installation to "Lock home in Memory"
Note: This is currently out of date - latest edits and Maximum MultiTasking Mods are NOT included and it does not work on Jelly Bean!
Goto Step 3 if you did this!
Option E) ICS OOM Priority Charger webapp. Same effectiveness as D) but done manually (OUT OF DATE)
Latest Update 9 RC* can install and apply permissions via ICS Service Centre's manual mode
Important: The webapp WON'T WORK for ODEX roms! So if you have a services.odex file, you have use a more effective option above
Also won't work on Jelly Bean ROMS!
More Webapp Info
Just go to http://android.mimic.ca with your devices browser and follow instructions!
In case of upload problems: If your Android browser closes while selecting file to upload, use Opera Mini web browser because it lets you select a file from within the app. Just copy services.jar to the sdcard first
CWM zip option is available!
But if you don't get the CWM zip, and instead download the modded services.jar, you can:
A) Do Steps 8 to 10 below! But first In Terminal Emulator, just type su and enter, busybox mount -o remount,rw /system and enter (Mount system as read/write).
OR...
B) Use the ICS Service Centre's manual mode in V6U9RC*
Help for webapp: Go to http://webchat.freenode.net , channel #v6_supercharger and talk to blk_jack (or me if I'm there)
* All roms (odex & deodex) - to install a patched services.jar/odex, you can use the ICS Service Centre's manual mode in V6U9RC9+ (for Steps 8 and 9 below).
* If you ever have trouble applying permissions to services.jar/odex, just run the ICS Service Centre and permissions gets applied everytime just before returning to the main menu!
3. SuperClean & ReStart! (ie. Wipe Dalvik Cache & Reboot)
Notes: For decent launcher detection use at least V6U9 RC6.9 or newer and check the bOOM Stick to see if the launcher the desired ADJ value!
.......... - Boot will take a LONG time as it "optimizes all your apps"
.......... - If it doesn't boot (unlikely if you did the edits yourself), try wiping caches (not data)
.......... - If it still doesn't boot, you can always just re-flash your current untouched rom but do have a backup nevertheless.
.......... - If you get FCs, fixing permissions will solve that. (Use the "Fix Emissions" Option in the latest V6 SuperCharger Script! )
That's It!
