[ROM] COUNTACH (based on B540, root, OC, supercharger, no FPS limit) - Huawei Ideos X5 U8800

This rom is based on the official firmware B540, so android's version is 2.3.5. This is a rooted version of the B512 fw with many tweaks and improvements.
To install this rom you firstly need to upgrade to the official 2.3.5 fw (be careful: update to B512, not to B540). Then you need root permissions and the CWM recovery.
These are the links where you can find the HOW-TOs:

recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1343276
DOWNLOAD: COUNTACH ALPHA2

Hi,
thank you for this work!
Anyway I have to ask you something about your custom rom.
Does your Rom have the quick settings widget in the status bar?
Did you fix the accelerometer problem? For example if you try to move on the street view (of Google Maps) with the compass mode, you understand that the accelerometer has a problem.
Can you explain what problems you solved from the stock 512 Gingerbread 2.3.5 rom from Huawei?
Thank you in advance,
regards,
kalo

the rom doesn't have the quick setting widget...but the current release is only the aplha0.
i have just tried with an app called "accelerometer test" if the accelerometer works but seems that it doesn't.
from stock B512 i have not solved any problem because, using it for a month, i have not found any kind of problem. mainly i have edited the build.prop and i have added some scripts to improve performance.

yes, you must upgrade to official 2.3.5 (B512) because basebands are different.

I know well your work,cause i own an O1 p500,,,,,but i don't use anyone cause i didn't wanted to change baseband with lgtool and i stay with mik's rom....and btw for O1 there are plenty of good roms to use.......
PS...i made a lot of changes on 3 weeks which i own u8800 pro and i made a really fast and fully functional stock rom 2.2.2,,,,i delete about 14 system apps ,edited build.prop,created init.d folder,some other modds and a little theming,,,,and i like it very much ........maybe i create a thread and a video to saw people how good stock rom can be made......
As you understand it's very difficult for me to change baseband,as i still couldn't found a way to downgrade again if i don't like the new baseband.......and i want to have my fm radio not loose it.....
Someone must cook a rom for .32 kernel(old baseband)

Really nice, we need good developers for the u8800pro

update: the accelerometer should work....but sometimes it doesn't work, to make it working just reboot the phone

i try to port yr rom to my device, in huawei family, its a u9000 ideos x6, but i stuck at android green fire animation, i use .35 kernel. should i format a system? worry to do that, if i not mistaken, system will be formatted automatically when we flash new custom rom, bcoz we gv that command in updater script. what else modification should i do?

you need the boot.img from your phone (get it using the pink screen mode) and the stock update.app (the bigger one).
then extract the update.appusing dsixda kitchen, copy the system.img from working folder to original update and cook your rom.

[ROM] B160 - New OC Kernel, Root, Wifi-tether

I take no responsibility for any harm that comes to your phone as a result of applying this mod.
Rom based on Official B160.
Features
Kernel from genolokar (available here), see note 1 below for overclocking info.
Rooted and latest SuperUser
Native froyo wifi tethering
WyContacts 1.2 and XDA Dialer 30.1 (turn to silence, blacklist, many other features)
CM 6.1 Email app and wallpapers
Launcher Pro 0.8.5
Some build.prop tweaks
Same enhancements that are claimed for B160 (better call quality, better wireless, better camera)
Installation will not format /data or remove apps from /cust. For some roms (unicom in particular) this will cause problems due to some incompatibilities, and will require a factory reset to function correctly.
BIG THANKS to genokolar for creating the new kernel
Requirements
Clockworkmod recovery (available here)
Should be compatible with all rom and cust versions, though as stated some will require a factory reset. Please post your findings.
Downloads
Complete rom with all fixes and 1.5Ghz kernel: http://www.multiupload.com/0HR8W3BMUR (updated 15/5/11)
Update with all fixes and 1.5GHz kernel http://www.multiupload.com/OISOHEHTDP
1.8Ghz Kernel (use above download to revert to 1.5GHz kernel): http://www.multiupload.com/T7C4N0Q1CQ
Installation
Copy update.zip to your sdcard
Boot to clockworkmod recovery
(Optional) Perform a full backup [see note 2]. After backing up reboot recovery (in the advanced menu)
Apply update from sdcard
After update is compete wipe dalvik cache (in the advanced menu)
Reboot to system. First boot will be slow as it rebuilds the dalvik cache so be patient, successive boots will be back to normal.
(Optional) If everything is fine delete the backup from step 3 and if you like do another backup
Notes
By default the kernel is set to the default cpu governor and clock speed. If you would like to overclock I suggest using setcpu (available here)
Be aware that after applying this you won't be able to restore the full backup unless you either revert to the original rom, or change the boot image. The purpose of the backup is instead to have a backup of /data just in case something goes wrong.
Not good with CUSTC205D001 Finland Elisa, swype force closes constantly
That's a shame, can you try deleting libswypecore.so from /system/lib ?
Great rom. My phone has no problems with 1.5ghz launcher pro is an awesome inclusion I l love the sideways home screen.

When first boot takes over 30min what do you recommend?
EDIT: Power Cycle did the trick. I did a batterystats wipe and fixed permissons before first boot maybe thats why it hanged. I upgraded from general to stockwells 136 and then this.
Thanks for this great ROM!
The only thing I noticed is that the camera has bad colors. Can somone confirm?
Thanks!

Hypersensation update3

Hello all first of all i installed all versions of hypersensation rom's on my own way. I come from different rom's like sense4 LG3.0 and FXP and Remics and Feralab. I personally adjust my build.prop for the assert(getprop ro.build.device etc.) Then i boot into cwm and wipe/format everything but NOT the sdcard. Then mount manualy system/data/cache and sdcard, now install any ics rom u want this is working for me all the time. Forget fix permission because it isnt working from cwm for a long time now on our x10i's x( . And a small heads up on hypersensation update3 it does not have a home launcher app and also no browser app. < u can flash stock gx homeui from vashista post. Or like i did i installed seclauncher.apk extracted from latest Remics rom. Because default one needs library's like dlna and few others declared in manifest in app. So deleted that1. And i installed/extracted browser from hypersensation update2 and placed in system manualy with correct permissions. I hope that this post was usefull for anyone xP.

To get lagfix on JW4 easly;
İf you're not rooted , just root it with CF Root link here http://download.chainfire.eu/155/CF-Root/SGS/CF-Root-XX_OXA_JW4-v4.4-CWM3RFS.zip
Then most important part;
http://www.wuala.com/deeeelite/Kernels Ginger/CF-Root-ext4-v1.3-Addon.apk Download and install this apk.This is ext4 tool developed my Chainfire... easy! Just Convert to EXT4 and done!
Also don't forget to change to RFS when you want to flash from odin or a custom rom like ICS/JB or custom GB (Dmore or so... ) from CWM!

Because only custom kernels supporting EXT4 file system. When you flash another stock rom. stock kernel can't read your EXT4 partitions.
So you don't need to convert EXT4 again but you need to flash a custom kernel with EXT4 again to rom to boot it.
CM using totally different file system. It's using yaffs and ext4. It converts itself whilebyou flashing.

Hi ,
I have installed the apk and converted to ext4 .. and other fixes for speeding up the Phone. I am having a Galaxy S GT I9000 (Indian version )> DDJVB 2.3.6 (valupack 2.3.6) and have just rooted using the kernel > CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVU_2.3.6-v4.3-CWM3RFS . So basically now that the phone is rooted what fixes would you recommend so that the experience is totally GREAT ! I know there are infinite solutions available on the net , hence would be helpful if you could suggest something that is tried and tested. Thanks.
Regards,
Kaustav.
Sorry i don't understand.
Did you say what fixes i can apply after lagfix?
Seems like you want some recommendation .. Hmm i think one of stock firmwares rooted and using with ext4 system would be enough
The best thing you can do i think;
Try Darky 10.4.2 JW1 rom.It is the best custom gb firmware that i've ever seen!

I have actually done the ext4 conversion, but I dont find much difference in the lag , the phone still seems a bit slow, hence I was asking for other alternatives like a better custom ROM (though I am not to keen and would like to stay with the stock ROM if possible) , or cpu overclocking , or some lag fix available . My phone is on gb 2.3.6 DDJVB Indian version and has been rooted today using Odin and kernel CF-Root-XX_OXA_JW4-v4.4-CWM3RFS. Sorry for all the questions , I am a newbie here..so please bear

Hi Patchy,
Flashed the semaphore 2.7.4 ... working pretty good..smooth. But found the screen display to be different, there was a greenish tinge to it (specially when screen goes on/off) but this has resolved after Semaphore auto brightness enabling in the semaphore app. What other tweaks would you recommend using this kernel ? What does the busybox exactly do? I mean what would happen if I enable it and also do you recommend overclocking to 1.2Ghz ? Thanks for all the help and PATIENCE

The colors on your screen are different because its "voodoo color" in my opinion looks awesome.
I always OC to 1.2 and set my touch screen sensitivity to the middle option (forget what its called) you'll find that under additional kernal tweaks in semaphore manager. I also modify my build.prop a lot under system/build.prop. using root explorer.
Just leave busy box alone. Don't worry about it. But after flashing semaphore 2.7.4 your going to need to download super user from the market to gain root access again.

Hi,
Yep I have installed super user from the market. About overclocking , whenever I am setting it to 1.2 , after sometime when I check it shows as 1Ghz selected. Also for over clocking , I see it at two places - under Misc. there is overclocking test apart from the normal overclocking change tab .. do i need to change at both the places ?

I've noticed it changed back to, but only when I rebooted my phone. Otherwise no problems.

mailppl;
To fix the greenish color issue while locking screen,alternativly flash a xlcrt off effect for jw4 .Cant give a link right now but you said you are on indian version.Crt off effect must be specific for rom i mean you cant flash jw4 effect to indian rom because roms are different .You will lose status bar if you do that.
You must be on european version which is jw4 .Then you can flash that crt effect...
I'm from Turkey and time is 10am right now.I will at my home about 9pm so... if you really wanna use ;
lagfix
Semaphore kernel with voodoo also without greeny color,
Flash JW4 firmware (XXJW4). Then flash semaphore kernel and apply lagfix... When i'll get home ,i:ll send you a link of crt effect
Also you can search the thread of it if you dont wanna wait
Thread belongs to pantrif13 as long as i remember...

Aurora to icepika
When going from Aurora to Icepika, Icepika installs and reboots..goes to the boot logo and then goes completely black with NO movement at all.
I have to remove the battery and reboot, only to find it has removed CWM recovery so I cant get back in to the phone again.
I put official gingerbread on the mmc with dload folder and recovered, re-rooted and put CWM recovery back on and then installed Aurora.
I tried this twice with the same results, followed the instructions you posted...any ideas?
Thanks.
