Lets COOK some ...... ANDROID !

With kind regards and thanks to a member of this forum, stuliv12, who provided us with a link to a HTC Click ROM, im asking all the chefs of this forum to be so kind and port Android on Jade. Only you have the skills needed to do so.
I believe that many of us here would want to make their Jade even better, by running Android on it
I have uploaded the ROM to Megaupload, so that you dont have to go to the original site and register.

Looking forward to seeing and testing Android on Jade.
Thank You in advance.

It's really good news. Let's improve this sparkle and make a big fire.
I want to use Android on my Jade so much.
I'm willing to support to develepors at least as a tester.
I appreciate the efforts of arseny1991 to encourage the Jade users about Android.
I hope we'll hear some good news soon.

Greetings,
I also would love to help with this project.
Please cooks, tell me how i could help... I have some IT knowledge, but really didnt had the time yet to learn how to cook...

i believe that we need to test Android with Haret first, because its more safe (we wont brick our Jade).
To do so, we should get the kernel out of the Tattoo ROM. Any idea how we can do that ? How to decompile the ROM provided earlier in this thread ?

I did have a go at opening up the attached file (the .exe above)
I used uniextract to extract the .exe and then that revealed a whole load of files, but the bulk of the space was taken by a cab file (90 odd mb). I tried to open the cab but can't succeed - I can see the content is made up of 2 files and 1 of the files is a .img file so this is the kernel.
All have a go and see if you can get to this file.

thats the same with me, i can see the two files and the .img, but i cant seem to extract it, if i could, i have the hariet for my elf, and can just swap the img files etc to see how it starts.
The main issues i would have thought would be how the keys are mapped, as the Tattoo has the home and back buttons, i assume we could re-map these to up and down respectivly?
any thoughts?

Lets not get ahead of ourselves worrying about the mapping of buttons - the first major hurdle is getting all the necessary files, and then the second major hurdle is booting - Once we have achieved those 2 goals we can worry about button mapping.
Anybody got any ideas about how to extract those files? Anybody extract files from a HTC rom .exe before as they could be packed in a similar fashion.

look what i stumbled upon.....

Good find - unfortunately the links don't work - I see the links have been asked for - lets hope they post.

1. the scrolling is very smooth on the tattoo much faster than my jade
2.the music sound 100 times better than the jade(tattoo has a 3.5jack)
3. putting aps on the android is a bit if a pain ie u just cant download a cab and just click it on ur phone these are .apk files and to install the same u need to use the sync and a tool called the aps installer on the same to install an application this u can do only through the comp a little bit of a a pain
and their is some thing called the rooting on the android something like our HSPL i still havent got it its not as easy as the HSPL we do
u need to create a gold card all that stuff which is still quite confusing
but i am enjoying the feel of the tattoo its great experience
and u dont have anything like our pim backup for the android so every time u flash a new rom u need to sync with ur comp or google account
this is also quite a pain for me
but u realy cant compare a WM to ADM
from my experience both are diffrent and thank god i kept my jade and did not dispose it so i got two toys to pay with
Note : the india version of the tattoo is not 3G

Thanks Haree for the reply. I think that Android is very promising OS but we are in the beginning and like anything it needs time to be well developed , also programs for it. In this point of view WM is years in front.

HTC Magic help (Vodafone)

Helooooo
I'm a complete noob (but quite bright ) so thank-you for your patience in adavnce.
HTC Magic, love the phone, hate the operating system. Is there any way i can load a new operating system onto it say the 'HERO' software for example?
I want it to do soo much more like Bluetooth push etc.. but it runs out os steam.
Can anyone out there give me an idiots guide on how to do this and any fail safes, i.e; backing up current operating system with a view to re-install if thing go wrong!"??
Many, many thanks in advance

Hy, yes there are ways to install others software on your phone. We installed Hero on HTC Magic from VODA. But if you want something without limits try Cyanogen. You will have more options than Hero.

[Q] Android on the HTC HD2 (HELP!!)

Hi,
I hope someone can help im trying to load Android on to my HD2 and ive not had much success so far.
Ive got through forums after forums and im now at a dead end!!
I have a typical HD2 - on the Virgin Network now ive been looking through youtube vids and forums and all there mobiles have been T-Mobile models (i dont no if this makes a difference) althought i no some one with a Virgin Mobile one and theyve done it they gave me a link to use that they used but its not longer active.
Ive tried serveral different Android Roms but nothing works i start the intall proces and i either end with this -
HaRET boot
Sutting down hardware
Turning off NMV...
In preloader

Tags reloadedto 0x11b00100 (size 0x00000f00)
Kernel rel0cated to 0x11B0B000 (SIZE 0X0026F2EE)

or i get this -
The boot loader starts and seems to be loading and intalling and then for no reason just stops mid flow and fades out.
it this untill i take the battery out and put it back in again and it loads windows 6.5 fine.
this is doing my nut in and i would like to get rid of Windows 6.5 and have android put on to here it so much better!
I hope you can help thank you inadvance!

Firstly this section is for development not Q&A.
Second, What you are doing isnt going to replace your winmo 6.5, it will still be there. The process you are trying to do is simply to make your phone reboot into android kernel and boot from sd card from and android "build" NOT a "rom", You are not installing anything.
If you want to replace winmo you need to install MAGLDR and then flash one of the NAND roms to your phone.
I noticed you didnt mention anywhere about your spl or radio versions which makes me think you haven't even bothered to go and read any guides before creating this topic in wrong place.
Go and do some reading of the guides which you will find in the stickies or by searching forum.

Cool
Thank you i think! new to the website trying to find a little help and all i get is attitude wicked!!!
Sorry i posted in the wrong place but rather than giving me attitude you could point me in the direct of a threat that would help me!!

You haven't even bothered to do the most logical thing in a forum, which is to read the stickies where 9/10 the info you need is located.
So please give me a reason why I should wipe your arse?
I dont mind helping people alsong as they also try and help themselves, but people who come here and go directly into posting a topic is just pure lazyness. If you want help and support at least have the manners to attempt to read a little first.

Why do you need installation instructions? It's the same as any other ROM. Custom recovery, factory reset, install ROM, install gapps. Reboot
#stayparanoid

because sir,
it reassures people who have never done it before....a small example...i am 43 years old and until feb of this year i had never used an android device,then one day my brother came over and gave me one and voila i was introduced to android and have never looked back..my point being...there are new people discovering android every single day...we are labeled....NOOBS...by the community...and for good reason,we know little if nothing about the devices we own...but as you....and maybe many people all over the globe were once also NOOBS you can understand that a friendly bit of info..like installation instructions...can go a very long way to helping people feel better about what they are doing...and save everyone who has to help them out,(when they maybe mess it up),wasting their time when i am sure they could/will have better things to do...capeesh...

There are tutorials EVERYWHERE. Xda, YouTube, blogs. This is not ROM specific. Why do we need to rehash the same things that are already published out there? Use the info that is already there. No need for us to rewrite it. Flashing Roms requires learning the lingo, the proper tools, and the willingness to learn how to recover from failure. This website contains more knowledge than you can imagine on these things. The onus is on you to learn what others have already provided.

Questions before buy Oppo 7
Hi
I love the paranoid rom, thanks a lot!!!
I have figured out that many questions is answered in change log, but as a not so experienced user i hope the community will answer me in this thread, by prose or by links, thanks!
Before i buy oppo 7 i like to ask a few questions.
- is headset play, paus, skip volume etc part of PA rom; when the screen is on, and off?
- support PA install apps on sd card, or can it move apps to sd card?
- what steps is recommended before i root and before i change rom to PA? Do i need to take some backup of important info? This question is due to possibility to restore phone to "original"

Blu Advance 4.0 Root and Xposed Info

Hey all,
Just putting it out there as I just brick my Blu studio c because of lack of information, The BLU ADVANCE 4.0 (a270a) (v07) can used the Standard Xposed and frameroot (both can be found here, search) and they work fine!!!, Did the root yesterday, and Xposed today....
And Since I Bricked my good phone believe I was Extremely worried (and stressed when I clicked "DO IT") that I'd have another Brand new Brick for my collection....
Hope this helps someone out there...
And Hope XDA starts supporting a More Individualized BLU Series of Forums.....There's ALOT of BS info out there (I.E. 1st Brick), and XDA has been my "Go TO" to get stuff done for MANY years....

Hi Mike
As users we can not do very much, but we can try to document any stuff that we found about any strange phone we got on the Wiki.
For example I had wrote this little page for the Blu Advance 4.0 Model: A270A Type: 01 here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Blu_Advance_4.0_-_A270A
Using the wiki is very simple and it does not have be a perfect article to start, it can be improved over time.
Regards

Ya I really don't have time to do stuff like that (I run a Development forum for Android), But your link is good, We Need to Get this On XDA and WIKI, I've done Hundreds of Roots/Flashes, On various devices over the years. and I'll admit the Blu Studio C is the First I haven't recovered from the grave, But I have Hope I did speak to the providerr of the rom for my phone and have been advised that the Rom is SPFlash Tools Compat (I have to wait till me T-Mo Throttle is over (34-36 Hrs to DL, Be Advised thos who are thinkiong Of T-Mo!)), If you check Needrom under the D860U (Memory Slipping again, But Check The Post for the Blu Studio C), He's the one that got me root rooted and When I tried to flash a Custom Recovery is When The Fail Started.... And the one that Provided the stock rom on Needrom.....
I'm thinking In general, We Need A Standard BLU sub forum like Galaxy and All them, Be Honest that C was one of the best phones I've Ever owned, I looked around but I don't have the Qualifications to Start A Sub-thread like I've used here many times, Or maybe I just dunno how, But even if I did, I don't have that knowledge... I'll learn and contribute when I can... But In the Future I See It's gonna be needed here...
And Although it's not the greatest BLU GOOGLE DEVELOPMENT on Google+ is a little help, But To Be Honest The Whole Internet Isn't much Help With this Brand,,,
Mike

Update
Also I just start getting Notif's of an "V08" update on The Advance 4.0, And I'm not doing it, So If anyone has, Please Let Us (me) Know....
Mike
