Recommended Posts

Got it booted, 'modemPre' is hogging the foreground tho, strange. Suppose I better put a SIM in! :)

I'll post a rooted update zip of this in the morning peeps (or earlier if I get a chance).

Booted, very generic, looks good, no pinkness, no major RIL changes I assume as calls work fine, excellent! :)

Heh, I can't resist, uploading now in update.zip rooted format. :)

Maybe 'modemPre' has something to do with the 'Integrated Modem' listed on the bouyguestelecom site

This isn't a Bouygues ROM, unlike the previous U8230 one!

Oh, the in call dialer is still PINK! Think Huawei have missed that one, lol...

Any instructions on how to apply this if you currently have the vanilla rom already installed?

I never said that, Just it's set up for the US region, I'm sure Paul has it safe enough for use outside the US

May also explain the difference in any ROM size.

Anyone try out mms with it yet? Might make the progress being made in the O2 MMS problems thread redundant if it really is a generic ROM that doesn't need the apparent T-Mobile lock down put into it, or were files needed from the T-Mobile ROM to get it working?

Didn't work 1st time, so I'm about to do a wipe and then going to retry

Will keep you posted

It works, but you're not missing much, heh

edit:lower neocore benchmark then the T-Mobile style MCR with loads of s*** on it. Same unlock screen, servo search is still there.

Would be cool if you ripped out all the language support except English to save room and offered the other languages in an optional download pack.

Found New feature (I think):

  • Send contacts via bluetooth

Can someone test if headset volume is any louder and if music plays out of the loud speaker when notifications come though?

Thanks

Bugger, would have been nice. Not that I need it with my Nexus One now, but I'd still like to get the Pulse "fully" operational to either sell or pass on.
