Is it as simple as flashing the /system folder to your phone, or would it take some adjustments(i.e. tilal wil have to implement it)?

[Guest DMM88]

No!!!, that drivers were released 3 months ago... That drivers are already implemented...

You wanna give me an heart attack...

Well this rom is SWEET!!!!

I've been using SS5 forever now and decided to stick a new rom on to update it - I read threads and decided to stick Swedish Snow on but wanted to try this rom first to see what it is like. Now i've tried it i want to keep it - hopefully its stable enough and battery life if good too. If not i'll chuck SSRS7 on which seems better than SS5 anyhow.

Main issue with this is the data size left for apps etc - I installed rom earlier etc and restored my app and data using go backup and all went well until ran out of room :( (thats when i tried out SSnow - but want to use this rom - so sticking it back on :)

So - i've read the how-to-a2sd-for-coldfusion-ics thread, made a 512mg ext 3 partition and i've grabbed the zip flie to flash from that thread. Now this is were i become a NOOB lol - never used ext before and not sure what i'm doing and all the reading is starting to hurt LOL

So, im flashing rom etc like so - which i hope is correct

FORMAT SYSTEM

Flash the ROM and S2E zip

After this wipe data

Reboot

Flash Gapps

Reboot

Question is (got there in the end) - is how does this work (sorry for noob question!!) I take it some apps are installed straight on to the SD ext partition?? - When i reinstall the apps & data from Go Backup will this automatically install to SD card were relevant etc or will it restore as before and i run out of room again??

TIA

Cracking looking rom tilal6991

Edit - im done for the night need to go to sleep :/ - Just waiting on reply to above before restore apps & Data - question on S2E though - what are the best settings to use ?? Conflicting info on so many threads - currently got apps & priv apps ticked and app data - left Dalvik cache unticked & ticked mount as ext4 - is that ok?? - any need to tick and set read buffer??

Once again thanks in advance

Yes, but that's just a review of the drivers of the GPU, in 6.2 of Burstlam are already implemented.

[Guest NeilDavies]

exactly!!

I wonder if its rom related :(

Do you use any alternative?

I haven't gotten around to searching yet as I don't use it very often

[Guest shmizan]

CM weather wakes my devices every hour, which is fine during the day, but useless overnight.. I don't imagine they plan a "disable updates from X to Y" feature right? :P

[Guest solidslash]

Oh snap guys, take a look at this: http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/usuym/linaro_build_optimizations_that_can_make_ics_30/

Will this thing be present in CFX anytime soon?

[Guest lol looool]

FM radio working?

[Guest Pondlife]

Nope

Nice! All here date June 8th by the looks of it: http://review.cyanog.../dashboard/1935

So I guess we'll be seeing it in all CM9's once it gets merged. Maybe someone in the compiling CM9 thread will give it all a go.

i repeat it: on mt chinesse phone all work very well, only panorama not.

[Guest Kr0nos]

My Blade was originally Gen1 I TPTed it to Gen2 but with a small system partition.

Can I flash Gen1-to-Gen2-TPT-v10-stock.zip Partitions: 37.5mb cache, 215mb system, 203.5mb data although my phone is already Gen2 TPTed?

[Guest ace j. ventura]

Using 31/5 CFX and having also these issues as above:

"- The phone continue to ring a few second after answering

- the screen is not responding good sometines "

But not "sorry for my bad english"

yer thats what i done worked a treat - just need to sort out ext partition after i expect as if like me end up with not enough room to reinstall all apps LOL

Go Backup is a great free app to backup apps & data if you aint got Titanium

[Guest andr0idbeliev3r]

OK one question for the devs. What do i have to know to start developing ROMS for ZTE Blade?

[Guest richardw1992]

I have been out of the field for a while and just updated from a CM7 on a gen1 phone using kaltkafes converter, to this after a TPT gen 2 upgrade.

I am very impressed with it, it certainly is a huge step up over gingerbread, the UI is so much smoother than before, I'm so impressed at the level of performance you developers have squeezed out of our little 600Mhz processors! My blade is currently running faster and smoother than my friends Xperia Arc S! (But that is mainly due to the recent ICS update they released for it which is laggy and buggy...)

I do however have two questions, It says in the update list that GPU overclocking and CPU undervolting are enabled, but I can not find them anywhere in the settings? Or are these just enabled by default at certain frequencies and sleep states? Any info on this would be greatly appreciated!

Compiling it now. *But* I have to go out in an hour and don't expect to be able to test it before later on this evening.

This is correct.

If you did have time to read through the whole thread (can't blame you for not trying, it's huge and too full of the useless information), you could see that only European Blades with 3mpix camera are (almost) sure to work. The others have more camera issues. There could be other hidden issues, you can't be sure before you try it (after all, I have plenty of issues that have been brought through from previous versions, and I have an early TFT SF).

Ok :)

Is it ok to run this on 256MB ram? I've heard that 512MB is needed for ICS thats why am asking..

btw I don't have time to read the entire thread(344 pages is too much) :D

Assuming you're not already using Linux...

Setup Ubuntu 64 bit in a VM. I think you need 35gb disk space and 4gb ram for the VM.

Install the build packages (except java JDK) as detailed here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/ZTE_Blade:_Compile_CyanogenMod_(Linux)

Install java JDK as shown here: http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html

Then download source and compile as shown here: http://www.modaco.com/topic/353188-compiling-cm9-for-blade/

surely if you are doing it in a vm

it will take ages to compile?

was looking and takes 40-50mins running native linux on a core i5 2500k

[Guest targetbsp]

It does the first time! It's not so bad after that, depending upon how much changes and needs re-compiled since you last did it.

But on the flip side, the advantage of doing it in a VM is you can continue using your PC for other stuff. This statement assumes the alternative is dual-booting. If Linux is already your primary OS then obviously whatever else you wanted to use the PC for you'd be doing anyway whilst it compiles in the background.

Dont read... Just give it a try... get any problems, you know where to ask.. Be sure to backup your ROM first...

[Guest Airazz]

So Linaro has been released, it reportedly speeds up any Android ROM by some 30%. Are there any plans on using that for ZTE Blade ROMs in the future?
