Guest yaqh Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Is best to install the ROM from scratch yes i am aware of that but when you got the phone set as you like, takes awhile to set it up again , thats all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest pOcHa Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 they introduced additional dependencies on some files that were safely removed from earlier version, so i added them to the update here: but need someone to test and confirm it - it should work now, but if it still doesn't, i'll just do what dakok did (remove only the foreground chinese apps, but leave their background services) so it will work then for sure (if it doesn't now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pOcHa Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Yes,I know,but is best to make a clean install to evoid bugs only if you do a clean install of all your applications too, but OTA update is cleaner than restoring a backup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gaijyn1981 Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) only if you do a clean install of all your applications too, but OTA update is cleaner than restoring a backupit's recommended to make a clean install of apps too 'cause it may interference with new modifycations of the OTA update(sorry my bad english). I always do a clean install to be sure everything works good Edited February 5, 2013 by gaijyn1981 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pOcHa Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) well if you did a clean install of apps (clean the data too, and reset all your settings - otherwise its not "that clean") after an OTA update, then what was the point of it all? unless you suffer from OCD, that is... ;-p Edited February 5, 2013 by pOcHa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take the OTA update as a comodity of developers to remake the whole ROM. This is not a good solution to a perfect (even beta ROM) ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pOcHa Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) now that's just taking things too far, not everyone is obsessed with perfection (do you reinstall your pc too every time there is a windows update - the probability of something not working is absolutely the same), nor do they have the time or inclination to repeat that every two weeks - so it is actually a commodity to the users, to a dev it is just a lot more added work (take a look inside the updater-script) Edited February 5, 2013 by pOcHa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest gaijyn1981 Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Still wait report if NetworkLocation is fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pOcHa Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 i agree, its just a personal preference after all... btw, you were the only one with the NetworkLocation problem, so you should try it out yourself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest experiment626 Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 After reading about this rom on the G300 I gave the G330 version ago from www.romzj.com and it definitely is a more smoother experience then the stock roms currently running v2.0 of the badu rom but takes a while work out what can be removed because alot of the BADU core stuff is needed. Battery life has improved alot along with the badu rom and the memory utilisation has also improved alot. I tend to use nandriod backups alot switching roms but agree setting it up again after a reflash of the latest version is a real pain as all the chinese apps get reloaded again.

Guest dakok Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 I`ll post the list of apps that are safe to remove so you can prepare a "clean" version for your G330 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest yaqh Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 I`ll post the list of apps that are safe to remove so you can prepare a "clean" version for your G330 :) would you be able to strip the ota version and post it as i think most people would like that including myself as it will be easier to update?

Guest pOcHa Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 have you seen post #305 its not the problem of stripping it, but adding back the missing files from the repack... anyway, try it now and report back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest gaijyn1981 Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 So...flashed Baidu V21 and again no NetworkLocation... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pOcHa Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 yaqh, it IS the ota update, read the post it links to, it was updated.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest yaqh Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) yaqh, it IS the ota update, read the post it links to, it was updated.... sorry i must have missed something, i thought it was the new full version as OTA had issues? is it just the update or full version with the support with OTA? CAN you please provide the OTA update link, the fixed one. as previous one got stuck on boot logo. Edited February 5, 2013 by yaqh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dakok Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) whats the different with this one compare with others? To really know the difference - one should test it :) I wont do that. I`ĺl show you how to adapt it so you can test it yourself. I can`t try every rom that looks promising. :) So it goes like this: Apps used: Notepad++ (portable) 7zip Open Baidu rom zip file in 7zip. Delete Recovery folder. Go to: META-INF/com/google/android. Drag updater-script file from 7zip window to desktop (or somewhere else). Leave 7zip window open. Open Notepad++ and run it, open your dragged updater-script file. Change phone version - replace u8818 to u8815 to look like this: assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "U8815" || getprop("ro.product.device") == "u8815" || getprop("ro.product.device") == "hwu8815" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "U8815" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "u8815" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "hwu8815"); (just change last numbers 8 to number 5) Delete only the next lines (leaving empty space after deletion): format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p12", "0"); package_extract_dir("recovery", "/system"); set_perm(0, 0, 0544, "/system/etc/install-recovery.sh"); Save your updater script file and drag it back to your (still open) 7zip window in META-INF/com/google/android folder (it will automaticly replace old version) Still in 7zip window: Remove chinese apks from system\app like this: Remove *.apk and its *.odex part BaiduBrowser.apk BaiduClickSearch.apk BaiduImageSearch.apk BaiduInput.apk BaiduMap.apk BaiduMarket.apk BaiduMusicPlayer.apk BaiduNetworkLocation.apk BaiduReader.apk BaiduUserFeedback.apk BaiduWangpan.apk BaiduWeather.apk FindmeDM.apk NewPhoneWizard.apk P2P.apk P2PScenes.apk SearchBox.apk VoiceAssistant.apk Just close 7zip window and thats it. For Shendu rom, you dont have to change version number and you remove some other apks. Edited February 5, 2013 by dakok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pOcHa Posted February 5, 2013 Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 (edited) ok, to avoid any further confusion, the link in this post (http://www.modaco.co...60#entry2085311) was edited there with the new version of the OTA update, but here it is again: https://docs.google....dit?usp=sharing there are two files in that folder, one smaller that has everything unnecessary removed (faster rom, more memory) but which might not boot (but it should now), so try that one first and the other, larger one, is called BLOATWARE, as it has some Baidu background services remaining (you get them in dakok's V21 repack too), but which boots for sure - so use that one only if the first fails...
