[ROM] <<< Fish'N'Chips 7 >>> [2.3.5]

[Guest Liamness]

Well yeah, that's kind of the type of thing I was suggesting. Would fit an HTC Desire, or an iPhone 4/4s (as shown in the product picture), so hardly tailored to the product. I actually use a cradle designed for an iPhone 4 in my car, so clearly the devices are of a similar enough size.

[Guest soami]

guys, do you have a phone case for the t-mobile vivacity?

In China here no, suitable case for it.

plz let me know.thx!!

It doesn't have to be for Vivacity. Seach for case suitable for iPhone 4, N8, E71, i900 Omnia etc - all phones with similar size.

Fits like a glove :)

Nice but p&p is a joke when you live outside of UK...

[Guest Titas]

Thanks raverrr & Co - flashed 5.1 + Vivacity o/c kernel = . Bluetooth connects fine. Just personal preference but I think the notification bar widgets would look better if they were sharper/less fuzzy. Also, would it be possible to have an option menu for which widgets are displayed? (I think CM7 has this) - I would like to add airplane mode + screen brightness toggle. (edit - OK - I've found them!) Will check deep sleep / battery life etc over next 24 hrs or so.

Edit: overnight 99% of time in Deep Sleep. After 16 hrs of mainly standby battery is now at 70%

Well, these should fit the Vivacity quite fine

You just have to use a sharp knife to make some cuts and maybe widen some holes...

Basically - if it fits iPhone 4, it will fit Vivacity more or less comfortably.

As for the P&P - these cases are made in China, co no problem there, I suspect.

A word of caution - the above case is crystal poly-carbonate which I believe will be too rigid / hard. If you want this style of case choose silicone / gel / rubber which will be flexible enough to accommodate the small differences in size between the iPhone & Vivacity. I have a silicone case which fits quite well. After the suggested modification with a sharp knife it was really quite good but I have reverted to the tabbed pouch style case because the power button on my Vivacity is very low profile & I found it difficult to operate "through" the case cover (btw putting a small sliver of plastic between the case and the button can largely alleviate this problem).

[Guest mooms]

Did you try hardware decoding on a stock rom?

yes of course, and it works.

[Guest app10336]

yes of course, and it works.

I has tested same video (10sec.) with codec (h264) with different HxW with MX Player

1280x720 = HW rendering (but bug a lot)

640x360 = SW

640x480 = SW

h263 (3gp) 352x288 = HW

mp2 hdtv 1280x720 = HW (720p work fine)

if you will try ^^

Have to agree with this. The sides of the TMV are identical to the iphone4 but the back is very different... The TMV is rounded. The camera and the buttons are all in different positions too.

Why are we discussing this in a ROM thread? LOL

OK, it's my idea to talk about it. sorry for that. but really thank you all for the discussion. I have no idea about the case. oh . headache....

[Guest iharrybao]

have you found that the front camera is upside down after flashed the RLS5.1??

[Guest PsYcHoKiLLa]

It's a known problem with the kernel, it does it on some phones and not on others. The kernel was made by Fuzzra, here :

http://android.modac...erclock-kernel/

You could either flash the alternate kernel he lists for people who are getting the upside-down camera or use another camera app, personally I would flash the kernel zip...

In case of an upside down front camera (likely if you use a ROM based on P771FV1.0.0B05 such as F'N'C3,) use this instead:

MediaFire: sfii-oc-kernel-060312-flip.zip

RapidShare: sfii-oc-kernel-060312-flip.zip

Just use clockwork recovery to flash it as you would with a rom. Your camera should be fine after this.

EDIT: Just noticed that your profile says you have a Vivacity, these kernels seem to be only for the SF2, so stick one of the Vivacity kernels on your sdcard too so if you get stuck you can just flash that instead.

I use the LGCamera app which works fine with the "upside-down" kernel....Grab it here :

Yep but the quality is very good unlike others i had.

I bought 4 of these and I live outside the UK.

There are, just slide left the icon bar.

Just for information, it seems deep sleep was not active when you are connect to power supply.

Doohh! I was looking in settings - Thanks!!

This is same case - certainly fits my TMV only £2.99 International delivery to NZ.

It depends what you want from your phone - there will always be better spec'd phones in the pipeline but you'll pay a bit more too. I upgraded from SF1 to TMV @ Xmas cos it was a great deal & my SF1 was passed on as a present. My TMV does everything I want & it does it well; BBC iPlayer, music, takes great photos, it's fast with overclocking to 900MHz + & it looks good. Sure, the Arm 6 processor is ageing a bit now & there are dual core & quad core phones out there but honestly people are really impressed by what my phone can do - especially when I tell them it only cost me £70! As far as FnC goes I expect the release of 5.1 again imminently. In fact you could flash the SF2 version & then the Vivacity o/c kernel (one after the other with rebooting) & you'll get the same result.

[Guest darren watson53]

just a quick thanks to the guys that helped me sort my phone out yesterday, and n4y4nrules, raverrr and anyone else involved in FnC that im now using. top job guys, much appreciated :)

many tnx for info, Titas. i didn't realise that the SF2version could go on to the TMV. best payg option i've seen is £97.50 and if as good a deal as the SF1, will be worth it. just didn't want (cant afford!) to change phone every couple of months. hence why i asked about holding back or getting TMV now. if waiting, a dual core would be my limit anyway. tnx again

Glad to hear it all worked out - enjoy the ROM

[Guest fredoche]

I have google play crashing many time. someone else ?

Is it something to check sd card (it's à 16Go transcend class 10 receive 2 days ago) ?

It happens sometimes. Try clearing its cache & user data in App management.

[Guest RedZombie]

Sorry to ask but would someone be able to put 5.1 on rapidshare as mediafire won't let me download from my phone?

Been running CM9 rom but having a few issues so want to try fnc for a bit.

Thanks for all your excellent work (:
