[2/3/2013] XPRT Developmental Things (A Work in Progress) - Droid Pro General

I've been away from the XPRT Android thread things for ages. Haven't looked at them, thought all development was over even though Boost Mobile sold them cheap til they were gone. So, i came back today to find... lots of things happened. Root, CM7, CM9 WiP, and questions, and stuff. :victory:
Anyway, main point: I had to do loads of searching to find where everything is (and I'm far from finished). I'm making this thread to help anyone else out. The Droid Pro section is completely based on research and what is sent to me (I don't own one myself). I will try to add things as I find them.
Some notes:
- This guide is for Windows users
- There are little notes under some links
- I don't own a Droid Pro to test with, but I do have an XPRT.
- This is a work in progress. More will be added.

Here's what I've got so far:
UNIVERSAL THINGS
- Drivers (Motorola Device Manager)
- RSD Lite 5.7 (for flashing SBF files)
- Droid 2 Bootstrapper + ClockworkMod Recovery (Play Store Link)
Updating CWM via ROM Manager does not work as far as I've found. I haven't tested it myself. If anyone knows otherwise, you're welcome to share Also, this Costs $3. Is there a free version without illegal download that I'm missing?
MOTOROLA XPRT (Sprint/Boost Mobile)
ROOTING/ROMS
- XPRT 2.3.5 Root Exploit v4 by drjbliss
(I updated with newest Superuser and an updated ADB if you're interested. Drivers included.)
- CyanogenMod 7 (Unofficial Port) by Rongsang
I don't have service on this phone right now, but this ROM is awesome and stable on WiFi at least
- CyanogenMod 9 (+some fixes by BlackFire27)
SBF'S (for returning to absolute stock) I plan to have instructions and more SBF's as soon as I understand and find them

What OS Should i upgrade to ?

I have updated my frnd's spica from 1.6 to 2.1 a long time ago and i'm thinking of upgrading the android version.Which do you suggest, the
[Rom] [Spica] OMG v1.22.12.10 [Android 2.1] [Stable] [Customization Updated/Adding]
what is the diff betwen this one and one of the official early released eclairs ?
or
FROYO for SPICA (CyanogenMod-6.1.1-Spica-alpha8.3)
Is this Foryo stable and usable ? (my frnd does not know anything about these things)
Better install SpicagenMod- also Froyo, it's still not a final release but it's beeing worked on all the time
I suggest SGM-froyo-BETA1-NextGeneration. It's stable, nice and Silky Smooth

1. Make sure battery is charged
2. Root your phone- tutorial is here (samdroid.net)
3. Put SGM NextGen package on the root of SD card
4. Boot to recovery (vol down+call+end call simultaniously)

HI
Hi
at the moment I'm running froyo 2.2 rom on my spica and to be honest I am not that impressed. its the samdroid mod, this 1 I think (not sure a guy rooted, etc for me)
SamdroidMod 2.0.1.alpha.8.3 - Froyo [AOSP] for i5700
so my Q is this, can I just put the rom you have supplied on my sd card then boot into recovery apply then hit home when prompted?, Do I have to hit "Wipe cache etc"? as this will be my first time applying a rom myself. Will I lose all my settings & apps etc?
does everything work l;like sound, bluetooth etc, all the important things I mean.
any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated

well,i installed the custom eclair long back on the spica upgrading it from 1.6 using ODIN softwere flasher. I guess if your phone is rooted,i guess you can just put it on ur SD and you have to erase cache and data as these are not upgrades to your version , but completely different versions.
Here is a new one from samdroid as well - http://forum.samdroid.net/f53/cyanogenmod-6-1-1-spica-alpha8-4-a-4716/
You can back up all your stuff with some softwares on the market... - Titanium Backup ★ root - Android app on AppBrain
The best for me is "Ultimate Spicaclair 1.5"

CyanogenMod-7.1 Released !!

It’s been far too long since our last official release, but I’m happy to present CyanogenMod-7.1! I apologize for the long delay, and I hope to speed up our release process in the future. We originally planned to release this last weekend at the Big Android BBQ but some issues with our automated build system held it back.
You’ll find many new features (read the CHANGELOG) and support for building on 68 devices! Upgrading from any previous CM-7 release or nightly build should be smooth and no wipe should be required.
New devices since 7.0 included in today’s release are:
HTC Desire S
HTC Incredible S
HTC Incredible 2
LG Optimus 2X and T-Mobile G2x
Motorola Backflip (Motus)
Motorola Cliq / Cliq XT
Motorola Defy
Motorola Droid 2
Motorola Droid X
Samsung Captivate
Samsung Fascinate
Samsung Mesmerize
Samsung Showcase
Samsung Vibrant
Samsung Galaxy S
Samsung Galaxy S2 (multiple carriers)
Sony Ericsson Xperia X8
Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini
Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini Pro
Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo
Sony Ericsson Xperia Play
Sony Ericsson Xperia Ray
Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc
ZTE V9
There are many devices still in beta status (Pyramid, Doubleshot, Shooter, HP Touchpad, Optimus 3D, several more) that we will be promoting to release or release-candidates in the next few weeks when the code is merged to our main branch.
The preferred method of installation is via ROM Manager, but you can directly download the latest release from our mirror network. Head over to our forums to discuss the release or get help. Installation instructions and other information can be found on our wiki.
As we continue to grow and improve CM, we are starting to see support from the industry grow- something that was unheard of previously. Recently, Sony Ericsson assisted our developers by providing over 20 devices, technical assistance, and compatible hardware drivers. CM-7.1 now has support for all recent SEMC devices thanks to this effort. Various other vendors have reached out to us, but we understand that it is still somewhat of a difficult situation. We will soon be providing a porting guide and some information on how vendors can get involved with the project and how/why it will benefit them.
Thanks again for the support, and for making CyanogenMod the #1 community Android distribution. We’ll be following up with a few minor releases and soon it will be time to start work on CM9!

Yup....this is the official guide to install cyanogenmod for arc...i will install it today and see what happen....is this a 2.3.4 or 2.3.3 version....can it do a overclocking...?
I think it said 2.3.7 ...
http://www.androidcentral.com/cyanogenmod-71-released-brings-android-237-pure-form
I didn't unlock my bootloader since my purchase a few months ago, so I am behind times. I am kind of concerned about the whole warranty issue... If you guys give me good performance and feature feedback, I might just get on the CM7 bandwagon...
Why in the phone list
Code:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Latest_Version#Sony_Ericsson_Xperia_Arc
there is no Xperia Arc? And they say Arc fully supported?
Which to download there then?
a guide with no rom. Yes thats so helpful.

Edit:
I just installed this ROM, camera is working.
There... i updated my theme to "XDA 2010" just to be able to thank you!
Anyway... will only go CM7 when I get bored of the stock but doomkerneled UI.
Tempting, very tempting.
The two things i'd really miss from the stock ROM are SE's home launcher (i know, i'm weird) and the panorama camera app. Anyone know how likely these are to work on top of CM?
SE Home Launcher is working on CM7, you can find modified versions on xda, I don't know about camera but I doubt it's working.
I installed this rom and did flash a clean 368 before. I am unable to add an APN for att and cannot use mobile data. It looks like I am not the only one. I have a LT15a, generic global was flashed though so it looks like a LT15i.

u can always revert back to stock.
Try to flash older version or a 2.3.4 stock ROM with DoomKernel until the problem of APN is solved.
I've managed to flash CM7.1 with out having any issue... (seems there's battery drain... but not confirm yet)
The way I did from unlocking bootloader till flash CM7.1:
- Flash using flash tool to LT15i 4.0.A.2.368 Generic Global
- Unlock Bootloader
- Extract the boot.img from the CyanogenMod update.zip and copy it to the same folder as fastboot (the /tools folder within the Android SDK folder).
- Disconnect the Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc from the computer and power it off.
- Download CM7.1
- Unzip it and copy all the zip file frm the 7z you've downloaded into your microSD
- Press & hold the Menu button while connecting the Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc to the computer.
- On the computer, open terminal and run the following command:
fastboot -i 0xfce flash boot boot.img
fastboot -i 0xfce reboot
- Once the device boots into the ClockworkMod Recovery, use the side Volume Rocker to move around, & the Power button to select.
- Select the option to Wipe data/factory reset.
- Then select the option to Wipe cache partition.
- Select Install zip from sdcard.
- Select Choose zip from sdcard.
- Install the CM7.
- Install Google Apps.
- reboot.
NOTE: IF YOUR CONTACT IS IN SYNCML/SONY ERICSSON SYNC, PLEASE COPY YOUR CONTACT TO GOOGLE BY PERFORMING BELOW STEP:
- Go to Contact
- Setting > Backup Contact > choose memory
- Setting > Import Contact > choose gmail account
- Once you have successfully installed CM7.1, it will autosync the contact from gmail contact to your phone one you have setup the google account.

[StreakPro] Finally launched in Japan (seeking owners for info)

デルの最新スマートフォン『DELL Streak™ Pro』、3月発売決定
The Streak Pro finally launched in Japan as:
Softbank: 101DL (finally 2 months late)
E-Mobile: GS01
New Info bits:
Latest known softbank rom: 071, region 12
Latest known emobile rom: 063, region 17
Android 2.3.5
Stage 2.0
I'd imagine it's pretty 'stock' like the 40x roms for the S5, V.
0xx roms are usually prototype roms
I'm seeking an owner of any SPro to dump files for me, you dont need to be rooted or anything.
Even though though the S10 launched in only china, there are a dozen owners that arnt in china and post on xda (myself included). Hopefully a SPro owner is willing to come and dump the system partition of the SP.
For the few users that have used both S5-407 and V-408 they should be aware that the V has better battery life due to bugs being fixed (even though the S5 has a slightly larger batt). The SPro should likely be like the S10 by now and have great battery life.
I would expect the SPro to have an unlocked bootloader like all previous dell devices, but also likely not have great rom support due to it not having driver sources released.
Note: dont bother complaining about dell here, it doesnt really accomplish anything. You should complain on any of their social media pages/email them/call them and complain there. At least they have a chance of seeing it there, I dont really expect anyone from dell mobility to browse the S5 xda subforum more then every now and then, if at all.
If anything, go complain on their pages that it's impossible to contact the offical dev team, dell pretty much has a brick wall seperating us from them. Even if they cant give any code, hints would go a good way wouldnt it?
I bought streak pro.
works so fine

Yes, but you MUST do a fac reset and manually restore data to use it on a device that previously had any version of dell stage installed.
(Assuming that the stage 2.0 launcher doesnt have any surprises, the stage 2.0 widgets havnt given me much trouble)
Stage 2.0 is signed with a different version of dell's certs but uses the same shared id name. This means that stage 1.5/1.6 will block eachother from installing.
I will prep a package, but ironically I wont be able to test it for a week as I am on spring break and my S5 was the only thing I didnt bring as I thought I didnt need it (and it was the only one I didnt bring).
Edit: file downloaded, first impressions:
I believe Stage 2.0 is portable to other devices, with the previously mentioned caviat that you cannot have had installed stage 1.5/1.6
Included version: 2.0-v1.0.11, version on market: 2.0-v1.0.13
the SPro's rom isnt made by qisda and possibly not pegatron
Edit2: could you confirm the version numbers in settings -> about phone, since it's not made by qisda I cant easily determine it from the build.prop.
Just give me everything to be sure or a picture or a screenshot.
In process of backporting Stage 2.0, unfortunately it's a lot more complex then merely working with Stage 1.5/1.6/1.7.
I believe the biggest issue is that it requires modifying the BOOTCLASSPATH, which can only normally be modified by editing the kernel itself (more specifically, init.rc in the ramdisk). This basically means it'll only boot on the S5 with a modified kernel
If I do manage to get it working, perhaps we can convince the various rom makers/kernel devs to add the line in and the associated files.
Just to be sure, I need the contents of <root>\init.rc, specifically the line: (from a working Streak Pro of course)
Code:
export BOOTCLASSPATH /system/framework/core.jar:/system/framework/bouncycastle.jar:/system/framework/ext.jar:/system/framework/:/system/framework/framework.jar:/system/framework/android.policy.jar:/system/framework/services.jar:/system/framework/core-junit.jar:/system/framework/kafdex.jar:/system/framework/com.dell.server.divide.jar
and know if it matches that EXACTLY or not, the order is very important

How to root strea pro d43
hi there
I tried to SuperOnelclick,Gingerbreak,visinaly,z4root and DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit.
but I cant get root...
Streak pro d43 from baidu got rooted with SuperOneClick.
Please help me how to root streak pro d43 from japanese carrier
I didnt really expect those to work, at this point (for the most part) the only way to root anything above 2.3.4 or so is to install a custom recovery and flash superuser.zip or something similar.
Until someone finds another exploit that's the only way to root.
Someone needs to make a custom recovery to root though that method. I'd offer to make one but I would need to own/have access to a SPro to do that.
Another update on backporting Stage 2.0:
Stage 2.0 is heavily integrated into the stock SPro rom, current changes:
added com.dell.android.app.deviceadmin.jar and com.dell.server.divide.jar to BOOTCLASSPATH
added assorted dependency apks (of course)
modified framework.jar [!!]
If/when I finally get it booting, it's definitely going to require roms to explicitly add support for Stage 2.0.
The reason: the Stage 2.0 launcher apparently directly adds Dell divide support into it. Unlike the S10 (which also has it) it's heavily integrated instead of being just an extra entry in settings.
I'd be able to work faster if I had a working Stage 2.0 install though, at this point I've added all the visible dependencies, it's still crashing out and I'm running out of clues
It seems that you are really working hard to port stage 2.0 on our streak.

[Q] How to install new android on A1000L-F

Hi!
Can someone guide me little with rootting and installing new android on IdeaPad A1000L-F?
I've found a lot of guides, but none of those are for this wlan model only, I think? I would be so happy, if someone could tell me how and what can I do with this. Current android (4.1) is so outdated, that I cant stand this. And latest games don't even install on this version.
Thanks!
Edit: Got my tab rooted with one click root, but what now?
any help yet? i have same tablet and same question:silly:
Nothing yet, sorry. We'll see, maybe someone gives us a little advice soon. Hope so!
First, you'd have to port a recovery (cwm or twrp) to your device and fastboot flash it.
You'll have to use a repo for aosp, cm, miui, or other and make a rom.
The a1000l source code is available here: http://mobilesupport.lenovo.com/us/en/products/a1000_tablet?tabname=downloads
You will need that in your venture.
Unfortunately, this is just not a popular tablet. I bought one for my daughter and rooted it, but that's about as far as I will go with it.
Good luck!
It looks like recovery is already available for T, F, models. I'm not certain if this will translate over to G, L models or not:

The only "custom" ROM I have found is just a modified version of stock. This means no version upgrade:

I am unable to get flashtool working from those threads and fastboot is not detecting the device in Windows or Linux. I was hoping to "fastboot boot recovery.img" in order to do some testing, but no luck right now. I'll mess around some other time...
I've got working CWM on my A1000L-F thanks to the links in this thread:

Lenovo has only released broken source so compiling 4.2+ will be too much of a hassle for an $80 tab that my daughter uses...

What is the highest version of Android I can get on my Droid X?

Im a developer and really need something to test cordova apps with. According to their site they support 2.3 as well as 4.x and higher.
I have a DroidX and have spent a good amount of time the past few days trying to get it to something 4 or higher (due to 2.3 not working for my testing)
Maybe Im misunderstanding something but I thought that CM [cyanogenmod] would get me to Android 4.x so thats what i have been trying to load?!
but everytime I sbf down to 2.3.340 I get an error in bootloader (trying to do this to use CM ):
30,04 - Err:A5,70,70,00,1F - NEW_MEM BLANK
I can successfully get to 4.5.604 (and remove the error above) but than CM complains when trying to install it:
"assert failed: run_program("/tmp/check_kernel") == 0"
I can load Apex 2.0.0 RC4 (or other compatible [for .604] mods) but these seems to be Android 2.3
So
What is the highest version of Android I can get on my Droid X?
if CM is the answer, what am I doing wrong on the install? Why does it need 2.3.340, I thought only the hack for root access needed that version, not the mod itself?

Maybe Im misunderstanding something but I thought that CM [cyanogenmod] would get me to Android 4.x so thats what i have been trying to load?!
but everytime I sbf down to 2.3.340 I get an error in bootloader (trying to do this to use CM ):
30,04 - Err:A5,70,70,00,1F - NEW_MEM BLANK
I can successfully get to 4.5.604 (and remove the error above) but than CM complains when trying to install it:
"assert failed: run_program("/tmp/check_kernel") == 0"
I can load Apex 2.0.0 RC4 (or other compatible [for .604] mods) but these seems to be Android 2.3
So
What is the highest version of Android I can get on my Droid X?
if CM is the answer, what am I doing wrong on the install? Why does it need 2.3.340, I thought only the hack for root access needed that version, not the mod itself?
