Working on new ROM

Hello everyone,

Currently I'm working in a new ROM for 991 and 991D. It is a very basic ROM. The standard ROM (2.3.6)+Root+Remove Apps+Support for Ext3-Ext4 and App2SD.

The main problem is that we have few memory to work. :(

Hello guys,

First of all, this might not be the proper section, but still, the problem I'm referring to was solved on other devices using custom ROM.

I have the same phone and I have a weird problem. I can make skype calls but the sound is played through the speakerphone, and not through the earpiece. The same is true for other VoIP apps - Kakao Talk, Line..... When I tried to use Viber I couldn't hear the other person, yet they could hear me.

I read somewhere, that the same problem occurred with ZTE Blade and it was solved by using Cyanogenmod 7. So I guess this could be solved with a custom ROM.

Here's a link to a forum thread with people experiencing the same problem.

Try the audio profiles. In settings. I will investigate later. It could be a stupid error in audio routing.

do you have some link of tutorial about cooking roms for newbie?

Yes and no :) Do you know spanish? :)

Fist step (with a rooted phone). Get all the ROM img files:

1) Conect the phone throught adb.
2) adb shell
3) su
4) cat /proc/mtd

It will write down somenthing like this (this is from my LG P500 so it will be different for OT991D)
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 00440000 00020000 "boot"
mtd1: 0be00000 00020000 "system"
mtd2: 00500000 00020000 "recovery"
mtd3: 002c0000 00020000 "lgdrm"
mtd4: 00100000 00020000 "splash"
mtd5: 00180000 00020000 "FOTABIN"
mtd6: 005c0000 00020000 "FOTA"
mtd7: 00040000 00020000 "misc"
mtd8: 04000000 00020000 "cache"
mtd9: 0c780000 00020000 "userdata"

5) Now you can get files with cat. For exapample to get boot and recovery:
cat /dev/mtd/mtd1 > /sdcard/mtd1.img
cat /dev/mtd/mtd2 > /sdcard/mtd2.img

The files will be stored in the sd. Mount and copy.

Those are the basic files from our original ROM. But the boot.img. That is the vulnerable boot.img that we used to root the phone.

Just remenber that boot.img is the vulnerable one NOT the factory one. Also system is modified with less applications (basically all that garbage that we don´t need) and the Alcatel keyboard is removed (also its languajes). System also includes root and busybox.

Boot image with app2sd

Hi everyone,

finally I have a new boot image with A2SD support.

Mod Edit Link Removed as it is stated in next post not to use.

Please be carefull:

1) I don´have the 991D. So I can no test it by the moment.
2) It is the vulnerable image+app2sd DT.
3) Allways have the "new-boot.img" by mrdoubble by hand. Just in case you need to rollback.
4) Use flash tool to apply it.

There is somenthing strange with our boot.img so I have to separate the kernel from ramdisk by hand with hexeditor. I have done the new image with mkboot, so I don´t know if Alcatel it is not using the standard headers it is going to work.

You have to do a partition in your SD to store the apps (ext2). Try it and use app2sd gui to test if everything works.

Hi,

I've tried to flash my ot-991 following the instructions givens by tutorial 'how to root 991-d', using the file root991-D, the scatered file and teh 'new-image'. After then my phone is dead and when I try to flash again I have a message like : BROM ERROR : S_DL_GET_DRAM_SETTING_FAIL (5054). Doing memory test I have the same problem, but it works fine when I 'Read back' the boot image. Can you have any idea ?

I understand spanish, cause I'm spanish.

Thank you for your help
