I present to you a Jellybean ROM port! i know cnote has already released one, but the more variety the better? perhaps...we shall see

first off, i would like to thank:
-nk111: for letting me use his ROM to port. link here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1776256
-elginsk8r: for the kernel. awesome!
-aaraya1516: for his never ending help in compiling the kernel and files for me. thank you!!
-Cnote: for letting me use his ROM as a base
-Synthetic.nightmare: for his kernel, and for still teaching me things. what a good teacher/dev :D
-ckisgen: for helping me fix an important bug regarding SD card
-the other devs
-the xda peeps here :)

onto the ROM

Here are some screenshots! Give thanks to this user: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=29135158&postcount=125

what works:
-camera!! yes, it works
-CM stuff, like weather on lockscreen, a power menu that can reboot, go into recovery, etc.
-thats all i know for now. the rest is the basic stuff, like wifi, bluetooth, etc.

what doesnt work:
-i am not too sure myself, so if anyone wants to keep looking for stuff, please do and inform us so i can put it under here
-heat issues because of the kernel. With pretty much anything that requires audio and having headphones inserted will cause the phone to heat up

Instructions:
1. wipe all /system, /cache/ dalvik-cache, and /data
2. flash ROM
3. flash gapps
4. flash LowMicFix.zip (so Google Now and other apps can recognize voice better. mic is too soft)

if updating:
1. just flash it without wiping system, data, etc.
2. flash gapps
3. flash LowMicFix.zip

link to ROM: http://d-h.st/users/chickenfactory/?fld_id=4125#files - 12-06-2012 (latest)
extras: http://d-h.st/users/chickenfactory/?fld_id=4121#files
link to gapps: http://goo.im
kernels that work with this ROM: http://d-h.st/users/chickenfactory/?fld_id=4798#files

here are the changes for the latest build:
  • synced up to cm repo as of 12/06

Removing the debug.composition.type=c2d line from the build.prop fixed the graphic glitches when unlocking the phone

tips:
  • if you want to record video, download videocam illusion. go into the settings, and change the audio frequency from 48kHz to 44.1kHz. there ya go, recording!
  • dont want a green line on your 5mp pics? check out Camera JB+ on the play store (or if you can find it elsewhere ;)). it works fine for me
  • full wiping from time to time may help in the lagginess of the ROM. this one is up to the user
  • a cache and dalvik cache wipe may be effective. also, fix permissions. that can be helpful as well

  • Status update #1: Dev-Host is being a PITA. so, google drive will be the new mirror for now
  • Status update #2: i uploaded the 7-19 version. camera works, since i replaced some files from the 7-20 version. backlights seem to be working as well, even with auto-brightness
  • Status update #3: apparently, the backlights keep going on and off at random times with auto brightness. strange...
  • Status update #4: looks like i never updated this in a while lol. ok, so cm things from cm9 are now starting to come together in cm10 :D. bluetooth is finally working...well it discovers devices now. 8-14-2012 is the latest build. go get it!
  • Status update #5: i've been slacking in these lol. anyways, a new build will be up. it will be a 9-14-2012 version (status made on 9/13/2012)
  • Status update #6: i will have to delay the update. sorry about that (status made on 9/13/2012)
  • Status update #7: finally an update (9-17-2012)! camera works out of the box (or out of flash...however you want to say it), which means you dont need to flash the camfix. isnt that great?? less things to flash! :p (status made on 9/17/2012)
  • Status update #8: 3.0 kernel is being worked on. as for now, a new update is being uploaded. also, check this out: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1881573 (made on 9/24/2012)
  • Status update #9: trying to get wifi working on the 3.0 kernel. no luck so far. will continue to try.
    edit: it did not work. kernel 3.0 does not have working wifi yet. but we are so close. wifi is the only thing standing in the way (unless the heat and battery issue when headphones are inserted is still present. i didnt really test it) (status made on 10/5/2012)
  • Status update #10: i am back! just did an update to this port. hope you all enjoy. last port for this phone, unless i change my mind and do other ports in the future ;). (status made on 12/12/2012)
  • Status update #11: thanks to THEindian, a kernel that fixes the overheating problem. woohoo! and it's up to date (made on 12/22/2012)

Thought you said you got it working in another thread.

And yay, mo jellies.
Did you include the GPS files in this one?

yes sir, i included the gps files in this one. let me test it right now, to make sure

i got it working, but you have to type the code in every single time you reboot. it becomes a pain, and a hassle

Then turn on the lights and stop taking pics in the dark, creeper.

....thats not what i do! lol. i meant like in the night or something. a group shot outside in the night on the beach or idk, just some place. i know a phone camera flash doesnt do much, but it does something

gps connects very quickly. well for me, it connected within a second! then again...im on wifi lol. on HSPA (faux 4G) i got connected within 5 seconds. seems pretty good to me

Well its supposed to connect fast on wifi, it uses the IP address to help pinpoint your location.
What makes a difference is if it locks on the network, cause wifi ain't everywhere ya know. :p

My photos and music won't show up on my gallery and apollo, just like on Cnote74's jellybean rom... it's almost like the apps can't read my sdcard? If i take a picture, then it will show on my gallery, but just THAT picture. It's like it ignores my sdcard? Can anyone help me? :(

It's a sign...
You're not worthy of the mighty Jellybean's presence. You may now be dismissed.

Try remounting the sdcard

    Thanks

    A big thank you for your contributions to our community, have fun on the new device...

    I will still be tinkering with the mt4g, so if somebody is going to pick up where you left off let me know, I'll be glad to help in any way I can...
    14
    just to let you all know, i will be ending this and all my ports soon. i bought a nexus 4, and when that arrives, i wont be doing much on the mt4g boards. it was very fun porting ROMs, and i did have some headaches while doing so, but it still was fun.

    thank you all for all the support you have shown and given to me. i appreciate you all, and hopefully the remaining mt4g users can still survive here on xda...or buy better phones lol. anyways, take care! :D
