I have flashed the stock and update to your pandawill via cwm/install zip from sd card, its possible you put the black theme on the sms?

Here you go. Just copy to system/app and fix permission.

Later I will make full inverted apps flashable zip.


WOOHOOOO over 200 pages on THL W200, maybe most interesting THL phone till now!!!!

Thank you friend, in this revision I was trying to get better 3G and wireless signal (and succeeded) since at my home 3G is not the best. On old 3G signal was 107dB and with this one is 91dB. This is making huge difference for my battery life. Also with this modded modem WiFi and GPS signal is stronger and should be faster. With EPO on, GPS lock was lightning fast, few seconds and very precise (from my balcony ).

Also used opportunity do add new kernel and boot logo but forgot to add logo flashing procedure into script. For me is ugly when for example have boot logo of LeWa on THL firmware, etc. Anyway I attached working boot logo flashable zip.

If this question is for me, this is latest official firmware from January 2014 but I kept build.prop from Pandawill V1.

I have created flashable zip with following inverted/black applications:
- Latest Google Play
- Contacts
- Messaging app
- YouTube
- Music
- Calendar

If you need only some of them, just delete unwanted apks from zip file

I will hold off from updating as I will be away from home for nearly a week. Also want new 64Gb sd first. Contacted seller and he initiated refund already.

Hi, I ordered three thl w200, and in two of them, it just randomly reboots, and in one the problem is specially serious because I sold it to someone. It reboots just after turning the screen on, the screen goes black and then it shows me the thl logo. After it finishes booting, it asks me for a new default sim. Does anyone have/had this problem?
I only rooted it

Hi, can I ask you how did you solve this issue? Were those two phones HW problem or flashing custom ROM helped? Has anybody same problem? My brand new device is freezing and rebooting in various situations, do not know if 4.2.1 Android is that problem.

Thank you

This is just untested theory at this point. I think the issue with large SD cards in the W200 is that the phone wants a FAT32 file system, but a 64Gb card is normally exFAT and causes issues. So, it's not the size, it's the filesystem. Apparently you shouldn't format anything larger than 32Gb as FAT32, thus the 32Gb card limit.

What if we re-partition the 64Gb card in 2 partitions and format them less than 32Gb each? Could the phone deal with that? Could call one partition EXTMEDIA and the other EXTSD?

Should be able to do it with Gparted under Linux OS.

    For those looking for the software tools and files for working on their W200, here is a pick of what worked for me.

    Zipped so I could upload, just download and un-zip.

    I have tried to upload these before but for some reason never could.

    XperiaC ROM V2

    CHANGELOG V2

    - Flashable CWM/TWRP zip
    - Busybox enabled
    - init.d enabled
    - Framework cleaned, some unused files and drivers deleted
    - Rooted
    - Software updated, should fix Walkman problem
    - Zipalign APKs
    - GAPPS included
    - Deodex APP and Framework
    - etc.

    Changes are not revolution, but definitely are evolution. ROM is faster and lighter. I have removed a lot of software which I have included in the first version. Also changed boot animation and removed Chinese shutdown animation from previous version.

    Many people asked about capacitive buttons backlight It is not a problem to turn on lights, but since XperiaC doesnt have them there is no procedure to turn it of. I don't have enough knowledge to implement such procedure into ROM (if somebody know how to do it, I will be more than happy to implement). There is work arround, please use

    KEYBOARD BACKLIGHT CONTROLLER

    One thing that was pissing me of in V1 was changing network mode, too many steps to make that. On stock ROM there is perfect software for this task called TOGGLE2g but is is incompatible with Xperia and many other OEM ROMs. OK, found solution and now we have simple network tasker incorporated within XperiaC V2 ROM.

    I did many other minor mods and fixes, updated sony apps, added Sony Motion shot app, etc

    All Sony widgets are working without any problem.

    ROM 130815 with support for both touchscreen models, from a system dump of a recently delivered phone. Flash through recovery, the additional zip contains all removed apps, you can open it and remove the apps you don't need before flashing.

    THL W200 "Can't connect to camera"

    Solution for "Can't connect to camera".

    Problem description:
    Sometimes camera do not work on THL W200 (Sometimes both cameras and flash). Rebooting device helps temporarily. Sometimes you can see vertical noise stripes on camera window. As somebody posted: sometimes removing and putting back cover - temporarily solves problems. If You have this problem here is permanent solution:

    Be aware if You do this on Your own or by some technician not from THL You'll loose Your warranty. (There'is a warranty sticker on a one screw). And as always - I take no any responsibility. Do it if You want, don't do it if You're scared or haven't disassembled any small part electronic equipment.

    First I used manual from "showtopic=477275&st=3420#entry25822546" from 4pda.ru to disassemble phone's case "plate" on 12 screws I have noticed that soft small pieces of rubber which is attached to case plate on inner side is surely overheated and melted, so it doesn't press well on camera's flex cable socket (I have also noticed heat coming from this place on heavy phone load):

    (Photo 1) - One melted small piece of rubber

    So I decided to temporarily test this by placing some sticker cuts on them:

    (Photo 2) - Place to put sticker (in red on photo) rectangular cuts.

    (Photo 3) - I placed them in two layers because of them being very thin (both - 0,3mm) (And i know that I wasn't accurate to cut well :angel: )

    Problem disappeared completely. So real fix would be to replace those melted pieces of rubber with temperature resistant ones.


    Sorry for my english I do my best. And it's my first post on xda.

    Just for djport1973 I have created S4 port. It is HDC Galaxy S4 Legend UI with some additional changes. It will be uploaded tonight after some more testing and posted here tomorrow. For now it is great ROM. Hope that you will like it.

    Some teasing screenshots :D:eek:
