thanks for the share on the information..maybe it is easrier for me to ask rather than try this out, but is this rom stable? especially the screen calibration? b08 is very stable and thats 1 thing i liked about it..the touch response is very much accurate. also, i couldnt help noticing the name of the rom you mentioned..is it b01?

yes it is B01 but not the 2.3.4 B01 version its the 2.3.5 B01 version    and the screen calibration is very good to, but the best way to see is to install it yourself and find out as same phone may have slightly different hardware inside compared to others depends which country/provider. just make a backup before you experiment....

battery drain is a common prob with some of the these roms but you could try this http://dl.dbank.com/c0oeqw54b1 its the 2.3.5 ZTE-U X850 MND-B01 from the chinese roms thread on this forum thx to Dj Fluminee and Malshenzu for hosting it and the guy who made it, the battery drain is alot better in this and everything works as it should, there are a couple of chinese apps in it but they are easily removed and replaced, usual method copy to sdcard, install through clockwork recovery.

Even I have installed this version and will update soon

BTW while installing from ClockWorkMod it was displaying installing update 2.3.4 and the start up screen has almost become a cartoon film

yeah even i notice that it was showing 2.3.4 and even the kernel version is the same, but it is definitely better than b01 i used before. i replaced the bootanimation with the one i like before i flashed this, so dont know what kinda stuff is displayed in this rom..:-)..

lol the chinese love their cartoons hehe, if you check the "about phone" in settings it should say 2.3.5.     i saw the same 2.3.4 when installing aswell so dont worry about that like Rahulj85 said in the post above you can change the bootanimation to something else and edit the build.prop file to display a different default language.

well going back to my backup of b08..the rom is good, but there is a lag in touch response which is kinda irritating. battery drain is slightly better.30% in 10 hours in comparision to 50% in b08...i guess will have to stick to b08 until something better comes out..nevertheless thanks racerboy for providing the rom..:-)

i had semi-bricked my phone a week back after an upgrade from gen1 to gen2 went wrong...i was able to revive the phone by using a chinese zte firmware and bustaram method. even though my phone was back and running, it changed the first screen during bootup to a weird 'w' logo which i dont like..as per my understanding it is a splash.img and apparently there are threads on the net around this for chaging it..so far i have not been successful and was hoping if somebody here had any experience around this.


Thanks for the link..will definitely give it a look and share my feedback.

Is there any ROM with good audio clarity as that of stock ROM ?
BTW, which one is better  B02 or B08(Battery life) ?  I guess both has good calibration.
Wi-Fi  sleep policy doesn't seem to work in B08. Any fix ?

i am using b08 and wi-fi sleep works just fine..screen calibration is perfect and touch sesitivity is good. battery drain is common in all cm roms, but this one is better. i removed the fm system app even though it was fixed in previous releases as i noticed that it did stayed on inspite of killing the service. i have installed advantace tasks killer with auto kill enabled and set to aggressive mode..whenever i am done using the net, i make sure to kill all the applications like email, facebook as they keep coming up even after advance task killer stops them. once they are killed, battery drain during idle time is minimal. you can give it a shot if you like.

As you know there is some audio disturbances(like some noice) in the speaker when the sound is set to maximum...
Tigtex told to set media & ringtone volume to less.... I found out another solution....
Go to DSP manager -> phone speaker -> Enable Equalizer ->  choose custom -> select the adjustment box & move all the  parameters to lower end....

This reduces speaker volume a little bit, but gives you best output  without any disturbances even when you set volumes to maximum....

Ofcource this is my finding.... Share If you have better settings.....
