Guest TouchyAndalou Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 I'm having a problem with this rom and could use some advice. I don't like the new 'improved' market, which hangs on "starting download" for me more often than not. So before flashing I replaced vending.apk with the one from b19 (old market), which I thought would have worked fine, but upon inspection, I'm greeted by force closes every time I attempt to open the market. Is there something else I need to alter to get this working? Is the old market app not compatible with this framework or something? WBAW or anybody else, your help would be greatly appreciated.

Try a clean install of this ROM with new market and not changing anything. It works! Market behaviour also depends on the network you use. I mean the internet. I am on giffgaff and got excellent market browsing. Had to switch to 3 for a bit for my friend, and it was terrible laggy internet experience for me. I checked it on wifi at home and works super cool on wifi. I guess it takes too long to download images etc that it needs in new market. Thus we find it laggy.

Guest Carlos Manuel Leemet Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 (edited) This is a port from the Orange Monte Carlo (ZTE Skate) to run on the ZTE Blade. It's totally de-branded & customised to be similar to Ginger Stir Fry, a lot of stuff had to be borrowed from GSF to make it work. It has Dolby audio processing. Bluetooth doesn't work. Wifi tether only works with a 3rd party app (included). There may be other bugs. This is my final attempt at this, there will be no further updates or support. Download: mcsf-blade-1.00.zip MD5: 59c7f6a13fb7c87eee2a3cfeb03b3a0e I got Bluetooth To work! + WiFi works fine without any tethering program! Can anyone send me the Blade init.rc then I can check it and fix it..? and can anyone repack the boot.img later? I cant release this ROM without some big fixes and if I cant edit init.rc! Wbaw! Is it ok to you if I can edit and release this ROM with fixes? EDIT: Music player not work anymore! how you fixed it wbaw...?

Guest The Soup Thief Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 Loving this rom. Was out of town yesterday using Google maps. Unfortunately the phone rebooted twice during the 4 hrs or so I was driving. This feels worlds away from the kind of reboots I've have with GPS on roms previously (most notably CM7 nightlies before the 50s) when I'd get reboots soon after starting up the GPS apps. Nontheless it was a bit of a pain. Anyone else noticed any similar problems? Phone was very hot to the touch at the time, so it may have been a temperature reboot - was driving so wasn't able to mess about generating logcats or reviewing the temperature - sorry. Of note, it never rebooted all the way back to the static standard green android - screen went black for a couple of seconds before the swirling Android boot screen (hope you understand what I mean there) I don't use GPS too often so I'm gonna carry on using this - just wondering if anyone else has noticed similar things Btw - Carlos' bluetooth breakthrough sounds promising (for them that like bluetooth!)

Build.prop : I added more text and added multitouch...=enable text + camera tweaks texts from DROIDX build.prop, stagefright text, other.. Wbaw Can you fix music player and if you have time then init.rc with more some texts to make more stable! Please Wbaw Edit this ROM! This can be better and more stable than Ginger Stir Fry! P.S.

I'm also with giffgaff, and at work today where I can get 3G the market worked without a hitch. As soon as I try it at home though, where I can't get 3G, it's back to either not loading at all or loading very slooooowly. Thanks for your response, anyhow. I wonder if the old market is incompatible with this rom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know if the Monte Carlo came with new market or old? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I replaced many Bluetooth files with GSF Bluetooth files and I added the android.hardware.bluetooth.xml to /system/etc/permissions/ If Bluetooth not work then some files needs editing but I can't edit all Bluetooth files and I never have edited the Bluetooth files... maybe other boot.img can fix the bluetooth problem...

Editing or replacing those files - will that fix the issues? Isn't it more hardware related? Monte carlo having a different hardware config for bluetooth than blade makes it unusable is what I thought. Two things that are very excellent on this ROM are: Network signal and Dolby sound. I don't know what controls radio connectivity i.e. network signal but if the files/settings for these two things are ported to GSF 21 - I think it will be an optimum ROM. However, having said that, it's nearly 23rd August. The kernel source should be release by ZTE within next 7 days. In that scenario as wbaw has already said few times - "this and GSF will be rendered least useful". After getting kernel source - things like overclocking, polishing, etc will be much easier for the developers and even CM7 will speed up in many areas. Thus, use this ROM as it is, spend more time enjoying the ROM than editing as better ROMs might be released soon by same excellent developers :) Thanks a lot for all your efforts to try and edit and make bluetooth work.

I don't know which hardwares Skate have I only know that Skate's Screen is bigger and CPU 800MHz I tested ZTE Skate 2.3 ROM for ZTE Skate and not work even other boot.img cant help :/ I really want Skate ROM to work on Blade correctly! Because Dolby sound was amazing and it is now amazing too! But I try to get games to work on CM7 nightly 171 correctly but not luck! :/ I don't have any Idea how to make good ROM I cant edit ROMs because I cant edit .so files... :/ So I need to use something other ROM which is not like I want... and Does anybody have any Idea how to get Dolby audio to ZTE ROM? I cant find nothing porting instructions.. Mobile Dolby Audio is amazing but I cant find right files... :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dwitcombe Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 Have to say that i too find the dolby so much better, certainly made me think of my blade as more than just a phone. better quality than most stand alone players. thanks to all involved.

Mobile Dolby Audio is amazing but I cant find right files... :/ You seem obsessed with finding the right files to solve every problem, unfortunately that is just not realistic. As much as ROM building can be, for the most part, pick and mix; some coding or compiling has to actually take place; herein lies the problem - the source for this has not been released yet.

Usually I try to get work that which not work yet! I cant nothing for it! Dolby audio can work on GSF too but I do not know which files is for it! is them libaudio*.so which not work on GSF if them are from MCFS.... maybe them are the files... or then it is enabled in boot.img..? IF ANYONE FOUND SOMETHING ABOUT PORTING DOLBY AUDIO TO ANDROID DEVICE THEN CAN YOU GIVE LINK? =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I'm wrong, I never used this specific Monte Carlo ROM. But without an App from Market, Bluetooth File Transfer never worked for me, with any ROM. Check out Bluetooth File Transfer.
