Guest KonstaT Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 (edited) This is my build of CAF Android for ZTE Open C / Kis 3 (Beeline Smart2, Moche/MEO Smart A16, ZTE V811W, ZTE V811, Skinny V811, Optus Hop Smart, ZTE Blade M, etc). It's for advanced users only. This build is based on the same CAF release LNX.LA.3.5.1-00710-8x10.0 that ZTE initially started off with their stock firmware. Important. Prerequisites!!! You need to install Android KitKat on your Open C first (e.g. EU_FFOS+to+Android.zip will do). You also need to have this ClockWorkMod recovery installed (TWRP seems to have some issues with CAF otapackages :o). Do not mirror my builds! Please post a link to this page instead. caf-20141104-kis3.zip http://konstakang.com/devices/kis3/CAF md5:0b05a7c3a03e344e26a007d73fb7711f caf-kis3-stock-kernel.zip (kernel and wifi drivers from EE_UK_P821E10V1.0.0B06 - for devices with GT960F touchscreen) http://konstakang.com/devices/kis3/CAF md5:32c116d1a7496ce0cc1a9113c405e1c9 Google Apps: Google Apps - CyanogenMod [GAPPS][4.4.x] OFFICIAL Up-to-Date PA-GOOGLE APPS (All ROM's) Root: SuperSU SuperUser Working: RIL (mobile network, SMS & data) - dual-SIM (V811W) Wifi Audio (playback/input/routing/headphones/etc) Bluetooth Camera (photos, camcorder & panorama) FM radio GPS Hardware acceleration and OpenGL rendering Hardware video decoding & encoding SD card (only external) USB-storage (MTP - no UMS) & adb USB-tethering Wifi-tethering Touchscreen/multi-touch Sensors LEDs Not working: ??? Issues: Generally unpolished - recommended to use third party launcher and camera apps Important!!! If you’re using my open sourced work as a part of your project, be fair and give proper credits, and contribute back by keeping your project open source as well. I've put countless hours of my spare time into this project and I deserve at least this (I'm not getting paid to do this). Free and open source doesn't mean without respect!

Guest arifmams Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 (edited) Work on my dual sim V811W :) how to enable "USB-storage (MTP - no UMS)" ? Edited October 25, 2014 by arifmams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KonstaT Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 Work on my dual sim V811W :) how to enable "USB-storage (MTP - no UMS)" ? Just plug-in USB cable and it automatically connects in MTP mode. Works fine for me on Linux but I never tested it on Windows (tested, works fine on Windows 7 too). There used to be a storage setting to switch between MTP and PTP but it somehow disappeared when I removed support for internal sdcard. There is no native UMS support in AOSP since ICS.

Guest KonstaT Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 New build. I think this project is going on hold for now. Need to clear up some space on my HDD for new sources. Dual-SIM (V811W) users will have to manually add a line (persist.radio.multisim.config=dsds) to /system/build.prop to enable dual-SIM features. caf-20141104-kis3.zip http://www.mediafire.com/?bn2jbf28u4mrc3u md5:0b05a7c3a03e344e26a007d73fb7711f -don't automatically enable dual-SIM according to hwversion -update bluetooth configuration -fix layouts in notification area and dual-SIM keyguard screen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest xeroxman Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 Hi , I think that this is one of the best Rom's for ZTE Open C , but there is one moment , I can't understand - how to add support for internal sdcard back.

Guest KonstaT Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 Hi , I think that this is one of the best Rom's for ZTE Open C , but there is one moment , I can't understand - how to add support for internal sdcard back. Could you help? Open C and Kis 3 have different partition layouts and internal sdcard is handled differently between these layouts. Open C has a separate physical eMMC partition for internal sdcard while Kis 3 emulates internal sdcard on data partition (/data/media). Both ways can't be handled on a single build and I can't force people to switch to one of the two layouts by using a Windows-flasher. That's the main reason internal sdcard is not supported on any of my ROMs. Emulating sdcard on such small /data partition (~1 or ~2 gb dependending on the layout) is far from optimal anyway as emulated sdcard can only be set as primary storage. This causes issues with apps/games that store large amounts of data on primary sdcard. To add support you'd need to build the ROM from source. Dexompiling/recompiling the framework and splitting the boot.img to modify kernel ramdisk is also possible but not recommended as there are better methods available (=building from source). Sdcards are configured exactly like on any other device. On Open C layout it would be 'physical primary, physical secondary' combo while on Kis 3 layout 'emulated primary, physical secondary'. https://source.android.com/devices/storage/config-example.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest hecatae Posted January 14, 2015 Report Share Posted January 14, 2015 Hi KonstaT, CodeAurora released the following on the 8th January 2015: January 08, 2015 LNX.LA.3.5.1-09810-8x10.0 msm8610 LNX.LA.3.5.1-09810-8x10.0.xml 04.04.04 would it be possible to see if a 4.4.4 CAF build could be made? edit: by the time you have read this I will have synced this repository Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should result in the best, most stable and least 'hacked together' result. Kernel, proprietary binaries pulled from the stock firmware and userspace HALs built from the Android source are in-line because all are initially based on this very same tag. You could go for newer tags but it would likely also mean merging the kernel with a newer tag, pulling some newer blobs from somewhere (where?), and/or reverting ramdisk/HAL/etc changes if/when you're stuck with older blobs for whatever reason. Otherwise the outcome might not be what you'd expect. What does 4.4.4 really have over 4.4.2 (besides bigger version number of course :P)? Since it would be equally possible to build a CAF 5.0.2 Android for this device, I don't see the point in going for newer KitKat tags. I don't currently have these sources on my machine and I have no plans in continuing this project at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kévin Heydens Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 Hi KonstaT, i am a newbie :blush: and french :( , I don't understand your link https://source.android.com/devices/storage/config-example.html and google translate is no enough to help me in this technic way. I think that use external SD card is great but I meet some mistake like "Median tallennustila on pysähtynyt", how can I fix it ? I make wipe dalvik but it's the same error and I am afraid to do big mistake if I change system.build without another help (in french or simply english). Thank you very much and I hope that CAF Android 5.x.x will be arrived it will be fun but this rom 4.4.2 without the problem is very great ! Thanl also to add superuser :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kévin Heydens Posted July 13, 2015 Report Share Posted July 13, 2015 With Kernel Adiutor or Perfomance Control it's not possible to solve this problem with build prop or something like that ?

Thanl also to add superuser :D Not sure what's the problem here. If you have something crashing, post a logcat. That'll tell exactly what's happening. I don't have sources for this ROM (or any other CAF Android release) at the moment and no plans on continuing this project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kévin Heydens Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Thanks you to your answer, I leave Android 4.4.2 and install your rom CyanogenMod 12.1 (Android 5.1.1), she is nice also, little more slow and use battery but you still follow this project.
