Hey Mr. Developer Can You add Softtouch buttons please

[VuckoKS]

I installed yesterday and my first impressions are; very fast, sms app is very slow, and when is the phone on 2G network does not go into a deep sleep, and no radio. So I have two questions, is it possible to delete the SMS app and install another, and is it possible radio to make it work? Otherwise great job

Sms app is the stock one, you can install other from the market.
Deep sleep problems probably is a app of yours keeping it awake? Otherwise it would defeat the purpose of a Battery Efficient ROM..
FM Radio is not a priority for me, sorry..

For what I've seen on the specs, the CPU is a Qualcomm MSM7227T, which is the same as the ZTE Skate, so probably you could start from there. Your problem would be drivers, because the drivers for the different devices in the phone are in the kernel, and the Skate kernel may have different drivers, I don't know..

Can't you find someone in the internet who has already started implementing a port for that phone? If not, and you are not experienced, it will be painfull to start yourself the port. If you are on to it, I would suggest to try to compile a working cm7 with the stock kernel, and work from there up to cm9..

im going to compare the drivers in the two-kernels and if they are the same, good, the only thing im afraid of is the physical keyboard and the screen, its 320x480 MDPI, if i get cyanogenmod sources and use the GPU driver or hwcomposer from skate, will it compile for MDPI? or HDPI?

and no one made a port of something to this phone, the only thing they ported was clockworkmod recovery...

I don't know.. You can always try it, and if it doesn't work, copy Mms.apk again to /system/app..

I will try it with sms and the battery life is excellent I think better than in eco 7. Keep up with good work

Status bar not appearing occurs ocasionally in all cm9 rom's. Touch not working I never encountered..

@jventura Since this is one of the most stable and functional ROMs for our devices, what would you think, of posting your build instructions, like KonstaT usually does on his threads, and we would build a ROM once a week (or as soon as a noticeable change was made) and we would make turns building it.

In the first post you can find a link to the "sources", which is my device/zte/blade source.. It is easy for experienced developers to build my Eco cm9 from there!
But if a sufficient number people are interested in more detailed instructions, I can provide them, just let me know..

It would be great if everyone got the same build environment in order to build this ROM with the same quality all the time.

Only way I found to do it for this rom is with APEX Launcher

On Settings > Battery, see first process (probably "idle"), and press the graphics and check the size of the blue bar on "Awake".. If it has a lot of blue, it was because something prevented the phone from deep sleeping.. Sometimes it is some system process, but can be one of your apps..

[Butcher55]

Little edit: i did a mistake in that hours. I had 68% at 01:00 and 2% at 09:00 so it drained my battery in 8 hours..i didnt look to battery settings so i cant tel you:/ but now i have first process "cell standby"and when i tap that graph awake had many, many little blue bars night..how can i find out which app doesn`t let the phone deep sleep?because i was forced to turn data off
