Hey there, could anyone help me replacing this awful hourglass screen at boot?

Here stands, that the bootanimation lays on the splash1 partition.

But how do I build a new bootanimation?
The resolution of the U8160 is 240 x 320 but I don't know at all which file type and in which dpi the pic/s must be...

Thanks :)

Edit:
I made an .img out from a .bmp (how to (german)) and replaced the splash partition with "fastboot flash splash splash.img" but the awful hourglass screen is still there.

When i flashed smartlucky ROM from lucky76, i had a pic that showed the screen broken and had an android popping out, seems though the hourglass is in the partition "cust" and so with a extra folder in the rom with the neccesary files in it, check out the smart lucky rom to get a gist of it.

Regarding the one ring only when somebody calls, I've found out that the culprit is the ringtone, namely Terrible Twos. When I changed my ringtone to something else, poof!, the problem is gone.

Just got this T-Mobile Rapport U8180 and thought I'd have a bit of fun with it today.

Followed all the instructions to the letter and it all appeared to go well and after installing the 3 update zips (Rom, Hotfix and Google), I rebooted as instructed.

The device has been displaying the animated android on a skateboard with the arrow going around it for almost 10 minutes now.

Should I pull the battery and restart it or leave it alone because I'm not sure how long the first boot should be?

Thanks

Try to delete the UserData in CWM. This has helped me.

My own world
Sorry for out of thread post, but i've flashed a multi-boot software on my u8160 and now it's stuck on bootloader. Does anyone know how to fix it?

Please help, i have to fix it fast!

EDIT: Got access to bootloader through USB, what next?
EDIT2: Forgot to mention, the RAMDISK is damaged by it and i don't know where to get another one.
EDIT3: Got that thing fixed - thanks to fastboot and images from recovery and stock ROM (basically i needed only boot.img and recovery.img, everything else is back thanks to my nandroid backup). And i thought it was over. What a relief :).

Awesome, it worked. Thanks.

I can't find a way to turn on/off GPS. Am I missing something?

You're missing the button on the status bar :D You can set which 6 hotkeys you can put on the status bar via Settings>Cyanogenmod Settings>Interface>Notification power widget> Widget buttons (to choose which to use) and Button order (Self explanatory)
Once you set it up... you can start and stop the GPS at will just by flicking the Status bar down and pressing the relevant button.
Ah,for what it's worth (and as an idea) mine are - Wireless/Bluetooth/GPS/Play(pause)-to use with winamp or google music/2G-3G toggle switch/Network Data - in that order

sd card

Hello guys. If you had read the last posts you know that i am having problems with the sdcard. But no more....I installed the stock rom via fastboot (i had a nandroid backup). In the beginning the problem was still there, but i had another sdcard and try it. It worked with that card and now is working with my card too. I don't understand what the problem was, anyway i will use the stock rom if i dont have problems again with the card. conclusions?:confused:

Another thing is that having the CW recovery i made a wipe and now the memory phone have 120mb free, allthough initialy the free memory on the phone was only 30 mb with the stock rom. And now it seems that the phone is more responsive with the stock rom compared to the time when i purchased it. What do you think?:confused:

Sorry to put it in really bold and coloured text,but it appears that it's the only way people notice what's written in the bloody instructions



You must always data-wipe when upgrading from Froyo -> Gingerbread. /// Data wipe?: Not needed unless you have problems.

    CyanogenMod 7.2.0-RC1 "u8160" Port
    Latest release: v1.5 [20120814]
    Latest Google Apps package: 20110828


    Hey folks,

    This is a port of Cyanogen 7.2.0-RC1 (based on Android Gingerbread 2.3.7) for the Vodafone Smart VF858 (Huawei U8160) and Huawei X1 (U8180). The current port status is stable - all hardware is working correctly, but see post #2 for any known issues.

    Pre-requisites:
    • ClockworkMod Recovery. The easiest method to flash ClockworkMod Recovery is via the ROM Manager application. See post #2 for more details.
    • Install the GooManager application from the Play store.

    Installation (updating from older CM7 build):
    • Open the GooManager application.
    • Select the Check for rom updates option.
    • Click on the notification for the available update and then click the Download button.
    • When the download finishes, enter recovery and install the update package followed by the Google Apps package.

    Installation (first time/new users):
    • Open the GooManager application.
    • Navigate to psyke83 -> roms -> u8160.
    • Click on the build you wish to install from the list.
    • If needed, click the Download Gapps button to download the Google Apps package. The most recent (and most suitable) version will always be selected for you automatically.
    • Click on the Download button to download the rom.
    • Once the download(s) are complete, reboot into recovery and install the update package, followed by the Google Apps package.
    • Important: if you are updating from a stock or custom ROM, choose the data wipe option before rebooting.

    Releases / Changelog:
    • 1.5 (20120814):
      • Updated CyanogenMod source
      • Undo modification to camera's maximum megapixel resolution for U8180 users (due to crashes)
      • Switch to using newer U8180 proprietaries by default
      • Add-on packages for USB host mode kernel, wpa_supplicant 5 and 6 (for users to test for any differences with wifi stability; base ROM uses v6 by default), U8160 and U8180 proprietaries (to test for any changes in functionality with wifi, camera and RIL).

    • 1.4 (final) (20120802):
      • Hotfix 2: kernel: revert aps-12d change due to problems with proximity sensor; update 02setuphardware script to modify camera's maximum megapixel resolution on per-device basis (2mp for U8160, 3mp for U8180).
      • Hotfix 1: kernel: add early suspend/resume hooks to aps-12d light sensor driver, disable unused adp5587 keypad driver; remove 1600x1200 resolution filter from Camera app; add ro.config.PicMaxSize=2mp property to build.prop, which should limit libcamera's support to 1600x1200 resolution and therefore prevent camera crashes for certain users.
      • Updated CyanogenMod source
      • Consolidate all fixes from 1.4RC release + hotfixes.
      • Remove RomManager from default installation. Why? I no longer distribute ROMs/updates using it, and debug logging from the app suggests that it may have potential memory leaks issues. My phone now reports 45-60MB (60-75MB without Google Sync activated) free on average after removal of this package. If RomManager is still installed after upgrading to this release, it means that you have a local update installed, which you can uninstall just like a regular user app.
      • Re-introduce Adriano Carrata's patches: fix PIN entry in airplane mode; add workaround for apps which specify an invalid pixel format (i.e. Sygic).
      • Enable speex encoder support.
      • Implement additional patch for security issue CVE-2011-3874. Note: this vulnerability is supposed to be patched in the framework already, but the exploit test case still reports the exploit as being available. This patch may only fix the false-positive result of the exploit test. Either way, it's useful.

    • 1.4 RC1 (20120729):
      • *Note: I'm provisionally marking this as a release candidate, as I've made a lot of changes to the kernel that may have unforeseen effects for certain users. If there aren't major problems, this will be renamed to the final 1.4 release.
      • Hotfix 5: removed akm8973 driver (not used after all), added mma8452 driver, more kernel optimizations.
      • Hotfix 4: added akm8973 driver (for real this time), fixed init.rc script to set U8180 model automatically, small kernel configuration optimizations.
      • Hotfix 3: added fixed wifi driver to solve issues with power saving mode and resume from idle (I had forgot to include this since hotfix 1 - whoops); added akm8973 and s5ksca drivers back into kernel to fix accelerometer and camera sensors for U8180 (and some U8160) users; fixed video camera mode; removed automatic reodexing option from U8160Parts (too hacky); removed U8180 branding option from U8160Parts (ro.product.model is now adjusted for U8180 users automatically on every boot).
      • Hotfix 2: fix U8160 (synaptics_i2c_rmi_1564) driver
      • Hotfix 1: re-added missing drivers and kernel config for U8180; fixed issue in which wifi would get held in maximum power saving mode under certain circumstances.
      • md5: 936cc309fe0a87c01091cbd0ee5edd9c
      • Updated CyanogenMod source
      • Kernel: reworked from scratch for stability (there were some errors in my previous CodeAurora merge); fixed some issues with Huawei-specific USB code; disabled Huawei virtual CD-ROM USB driver; fixed compass driver; removed Huawei wakelock/suspend code that was causing "unknown_wakeups" wakelocks to be generated, possibly draining battery; removed many unnecessary drivers & some debug options from default kernel configuration.
      • Wifi: Updated bcm4329 driver - adapted from clean android-msm.2.6.39 sources, including patches from Nvidia and Huawei to support our device properly; using wpa_supplicant_6 with combo scan enabled, including a fix for resume from idle. Summary: wireless should now work on all channels (>11 had issues before), hidden SSIDs work properly, and resume from idle works properly.
      • Removed USB host support from default kernel (will package separately)
      • Disable compcache (ramzswap) by default
      • Changed ramzswap, CIFS and TUN (vpn) drivers to modules, moved dhd.ko from boot image to /system to reduce memory footprint of kernel.

    • 1.3 (20120625):
      • md5: aabb0add99abcec1ceebb5588242358f
      • Updated CyanogenMod source.
      • Add U8160Parts settings application. New options available via Settings -> Device settings: ROM re-odexing [not recommended for people already using some form of app2sd], attenuation of speaker, headset, FM radio, Kernel Samepage Merging, Swap, Generate bug report. Removed madconfig script.
      • Testing some patches by ac1953: automatic resume of music after interruption by incoming call; fix FM radio pop, ensure that last used frequency is properly tuned on cold start of FM app (including my change); enable workaround for invalid PixelFormat 8 (fixes Sygic).
      • libaudio: add FM audio attenuation support, fix minimum in-call volume causing sound to mute completely.
      • Resolve battery drain cause by kernel configuration in previous release (CONFIG_FB_EARLYSUSPEND has issues with suspend in Gingebread).
      • Revert to original bcm4329 driver (from Huawei U8180 source drop) with increased dhd_watchdog_ms period; disable combo scanning in supplicant to fix hidden networks; ensure that dhcpcd server is always stopped when wpa_supplicant is stopped. Testing to see if this improves battery usage, and/or resolves the problem with connecting to networks beyond channel 11.

    • [release candidate] (20120616):
      • Updated CyanogenMod source.
      • Kernel: disable framebuffer console (ANDROID text), instead transitioning directly from egg-timer (or bootsplash image, if installed) to CyanogenMod bootanimation - may improve battery
      • Kernel: enable USB Host mode (support modules are installed to /system/lib/modules/) - needs testing from users with OTG adaptors
      • Kernel: enable Kernel Samepage Merging, switch from console-based earlysuspend to framebuffer-based earlysuspend - may improve battery
      • New libaudio from Adriano Carrata with audio attenuation support, improved AudioFilter.csv - completely solves audio distortion
      • Switch to open source gralloc module (fixed - video decoders now work properly)
      • Fix issue in which framebuffer earlysuspend could sometimes cause the screen not to wake properly.

    • v1.2 (20120403):
      • Updated CyanogenMod source.
      • New kernel (based on latest CodeAurora froyo_almond branch).
      • Enable workaround to reduce audio distortion at higher volume levels.
      • Completely fixed instability/freezes related to USB tethering.
      • Various patches for memory leaks and minor bugs from gerrit.

    • v1.1 (20120317):
      • Hotfix 1: disable CGROUPS, fix wireless suspend stability issue
      • Updated CyanogenMod source - version 7.2.0-RC1
      • Cherry-picked various patches from gerrit to fix issues with core binaries/libraries (dalvik, bionic, zlib, etc.)
      • Kernel: reverted to stable 2.6.32.9 kernel due to issues with battery consumption. Note: CGROUPS is still enabled, but the Application Not Responding issue on first boot seems to be fixed
      • Kernel: disabled OTG support due to battery consumption issues (will package a separate kernel for interested testers)
      • Kernel: updated pmem driver, fixed issues with smartassV2 & interactiveX CPU governors
      • Wifi: stability patch for bcm4329 driver
      • wpa_supplicant_6: wait for control interface monitor to be brought up before starting. Improves reliability of wireless when reconnecting from idle.
      • libaudio: fix for minimum in-call volume being incorrectly muted in certain cases (such as on speakerphone)
      • GPS: use worldwide SUPL server by default
      • Compcache: back to 18%
      • ADWLauncher: lock action buttons by default (helps avoid cases in which users accidentally detach the icons for these buttons)
      • Change scrolling cache setting to further improve scrolling speed

    • v1.0 (20120227):
      • Known issue: you may see the message "process system is not responding" after unlock on first boot. This is due to CGROUPS being enabled in the kernel (and also happens with the stock kernel - it's not a problem with my updates). You can safely disregard the message as no harm will be done.
      • Hotfix 1test1 [8th March]: Changes to kernel to fix battery drain - please test.
      • Updated CyanogenMod source.
      • Kernel: now using version 2.6.32.57 (Code Aurora's froyo_almond updates + upstream's longterm 2.6.32.y updates merged)
      • Kernel: new bcm4329 wifi driver, which should fix reconnect from idle for hidden networks
      • Kernel config: enabled CGROUPS, tweaks to improve battery usage
      • Scrolling cache tweak.

    • v0.9 (20120203):
      • Hotfix 4test5 [21 Feb]: Revert longterm patches due to random reboot issue.
      • Hotfix 4test4 [21 Feb]: Kernel: fix screen not turning back on from suspend, other small fixes.

      • Hotfix 3 [12 Feb]: Kernel: more stable config (enabled ARMv6 K extensions which stops USB errors; fix for U8180 key issues).
      • Hotfix 2 [10 Feb]: Fix call audio via Bluetooth headset; disabled AHB overclocking due to instability during USB tethering (and possibly also during other activities); wifi module now built from source to improve reliability; updated wpa_supplicant_6 to use combo scanning; re-enabled SCHED_HRTICK in config (it wasn't the cause of instability).
      • Hotfix 1: Fix audio routing issues that were causing problems with the mic and headset detection during calls. This may or may not affect the Bluetooth headset bug - please let me know.
      • Updated CyanogenMod source (almost 7.2.0-RC1).
      • Performance: disable scrolling cache (prevents lag)
      • Performance/battery: disable ICS rotation animation (it's slow and causes instability; ICS transition animations are still working smoothly)
      • Performance/battery: updated android staging kernel drivers from 2.6.35 kernel (notably bringing improvements to the lowmemorykiller driver)
      • Performance/stability: moved to stable copybit version
      • Stability: rebuilt kernel using 4.4.3 toolchain from CM7 source.
      • Stability: kernel audio driver patches to prevent rare blackscreen during incoming calls/low memory conditions
      • Stability: further updates to latest CAF libaudio version with FM routing code added. Bluetooth calling should work again, but needs testing.
      • Battery: added 2g/3g mobiledata switch option (allows you to use the mobiledata statusbar button to switch between 2g/3g network modes).
      • Fancy: enable electron beam animation for screen off by default (performance is satisfactory)
      • Reverted SIM lock change that was causing people to have problems with certain SIM cards.
      • FM: fixed audio routing (headphones will not longer malfunction if you use the speaker and then exit the FM app); prevent frequencies out of bounds being used; allow looping between the top/bottom of the frequency bands.
      • Improved mac address generator script to prevent errors for certain devices.
      • Increased default compcache memory allocation to 26%.
      • Miscellaneous code cleanups.
      • Now distributed via ROM Manager with a greatly simplified installation procedure.

    • v0.8 - 26 January 2012:
      • Updated CyanogenMod source (still 7.2.0-RC0).
      • Fix for rare issue where notification area items can get "stuck", causing notifications to malfunction.
      • Now includes ICS rotation and transition animations (merged officially into CM7.2)
      • Wifi: disable wpa_supplicant_6's combo scan to fix reconnect/hidden SSID issues
      • Bluetooth: disable master mode to increase reliability with some peripherals
      • libaudio: code cleanup (based on rmcc's geeksphone zero); removed dependency on proprietary liba2dp.so
      • ADWLauncher: allow rotation of home screen by default
      • Kernel: re-enable multitouch support (oops)
      • Init: reduce default mmcblk0 readahead from 2MB -> 258KB to avoid potential lag.
      • The phone is no longer restricted when network locked and using a different SIM card.
      • Small cleanups.

    • v0.7 - 22 January 2012:
      • Updated CyanogenMod source (still 7.2.0-RC0).
      • Kernel stability fix (disabled SCHED_HRTICK due to instability/random reboot issue).
      • MAC addresses for Bluetooth and wifi are now accurate.
      • Improved Bluetooth audio.conf based on this bug report. This should improve Bluetooth stability with audio peripherals.
      • Reduced default compcache memory usage from 18% -> 10% to reduce potential lag.
      • Reduce LatinIME landscape keyboard key height (.25in -> .23in)
      • Use automatic brightness setting by default.

    • v0.6 - 29 December 2011:
      • Hotfix 2 [31 December 2011]: Updated "madconfig" script. You can now run adb shell madconfig u8180 to activate U8180 ROM branding that will survive future ROM upgrades (of my own release).
      • Hotfix 1 [31 December 2011]: Updated kernel (further stability fixes, added interactiveX cpu scheduler, unlocked overclock frequencies up to 768Mhz); updated libaudio to increase buffer size (this improves smoothness of apps using audio - e.g., Gensoid can now play games at full 50/60fps in landscape with no visual stuttering @633Mhz, whereas before it would stutter constantly); renamed tethering device from usb -> rndis (cosmetic fix); tweaked LatinIME keyboard to use .23in key height (down from .26in).
      • Updated CyanogenMod source (7.2.0-RC0).
      • Kernel: rebuilt using latest stable linaro gcc release: 4.5-2011.11
      • Kernel: fixed phone freeze issue when USB tethering is interrupted. This change also seems to reduce general system lag that was being caused by a conflict in the USB drivers.
      • Kernel: fixed "back" softkey alignment.
      • Kernel: fixed touchscreen right edge sensitivity issue (portrait).
      • Renamed wifi device from eth0 -> wlan0 for better consistency.
      • Re-enabled surface dithering by default; it has been reported that font rendering is improved with this option enabled, and I don't see much performance impact when enabled.
      • Experimental build.prop tweak to enable 3mp camera support (untested).

    • v0.5 - 10 November 2011:
      • Updated CyanogenMod source.
      • Partial fix for third-party camera apps (e.g. barcode scanners).

    • v0.4 - 21 October 2011:
      • Hotfix 2 [23 October 2011]: Updated device permissions. This fixes the sound recorder and camcorder.
      • Hotfix 1 [21 October 2011]: Reverted to v5 wpa_supplicant. This solves the issue in which wifi refuses to connect to hidden SSIDs.
      • Updated CyanogenMod source.
      • Included some patches to bring further improvements to 2D graphics & general system performance.
      • Patched framework to swap volume controls when the phone is rotated 90 degrees.
      • Improve USB transfer speed while in UMS (USB Mass Storage) mode.
      • Fix some graphical corruption on widgets in stock Camera app.
      • Other small fixes.

    • v0.3 - 10 October 2011:
      • Updated CyanogenMod source - final 7.1 release.
      • Improved 2D rendering speed.
      • Switched to EU GPS servers.
      • Fixed headset/media control keys.
      • Re-enabled automatic brightness.

    • v0.2 - 3 October 2011:
      • Hotfix 3 [6 October 2011]: Kernel: reverted to stable compcache (ramzswap) driver. Framework: disabled JNI debugging -this fixes force-close errors in some applications such as TapFish, and increases overall system performance.
      • Hotfix 2 [4 October 2011]: Kernel: improved multitouch driver to fix touchscreen accuracy (especially soft keys), improved haptic feedback, fix to zram module. Small fixes to libaudio (the distortion is not yet resolved, however).
      • Hotfix 1 [3 October 2011]: Kernel: added compcache (zram.ko) module, reduced boot delay, unlocked 729Mhz frequency, small bugfixes. Framework: enable compcache by default (18% RAM usage, customizable in CyanogenMod Settings - Performance -> Compcache RAM Usage.)
      • Updated CyanogenMod source: now based on Gingerbread version 2.3.7.
      • Kernel now supports under/overclock from 30Mhz - 710Mhz (min/max frequency is set to 30Mhz - 600Mhz by default, so you must manually activate the higher frequencies via Settings -> CyanogenMod Settings -> Performance -> CPU settings). Thanks to estebanSannin. NOTE: My phone is very unstable at 691Mhz, and freezes immediately at 710Mhz. I am providing these higher frequencies just in case your phone has better tolerance for overclocking. I accept no responsibility for any damage caused as a result of overclocking.
      • FM Radio app: fixed seeking (left/right arrows).
      • Disabled automatic brightness (it potentially avoids battery drain, and never worked anyway). Thanks to tas0s for the tip.
      • Enable workaround to prevent corruption issues if you use the Simple2EXT app2sd app.
      • Reverted Gallery app to 2D version, due to lack of hardware 3D acceleration on our phone.
      • Added compatibility with sebastian404's ClockworkMod port. You can now install this ROM using his CWM recovery (as well as my own).
      • Improved FM volume calculation, reduced overall volume & small fixes to audio code.
      • Various small bugfixes.

    • v0.1 - 12 September 2011:
      • Hotfix 1 [18 September 2011]: Boot: removed custom lowmemorykiller tweaks; kernel: various updates (smartassV2, TinyRCU, Simple and V(R) IO schedulers), bugfixes and optimizations, changed default scheduler to Simple IO; libaudio: code cleanup; Framework: enabled hardware-accelerated 2D rendering.
      • First release. All hardware appears to be working correctly.

      • Run super1click and click the Root button. Follow all of the prompts given by the application, but make sure that you choose yes to the prompt on whether to install busybox.
      • Continue to the next part when your phone is successfully rooted.
    • b) Installing ROM Manager & ClockworkMod
      • Install ROM Manager from the Google Play store.
      • Open the ROM Manager application. Choose the option Flash ClockworkMod Recovery, and confirm the phone model as Huawei U8160.
      • After downloading the recovery image, a Superuser prompt will ask you for permission for the application to have root access. You should Allow this action.
      • ClockworkMod should now be flashed to your phone.

    Known issues
    • Excessive bass/distortion at >70% volume - workaround in v1.2.

    Technical details:
    • Kernel 2.6.32:
      • CPU & AHB overclock supported up to 768Mhz, but default frequencies (122-600Mhz) are used by default for safety/stability reasons
      • Built-in support for CIFS, TUN, compcache (ramzswap)
      • Multitouch Synaptics touchscreen driver
      • Added extra CPU schedulers: interactiveX, smartassV2 (default)
      • Added extra IO schedulers: BFQ, VIO, SIO (default)
      • Updated Android staging drivers from 2.6.35 kernel
      • Patches to improve CyanogenMod compatibility (e.g. USB tethering)
      • Various other stability & performance patches.

    Before you ask...
    I have no interest or intention to further "mod" the ROM with any kind of hacks or customizations (like custom apps, themes, Swype, etc.). My only aim is to have a 100% stable port of Cyanogen code. Any such requests will be ignored.

    Reporting bugs
    You must follow these instructions exactly, or I will ignore your requests. Provide the following information:
    • The version of the ROM you are using (to confirm that you have the latest release)
    • Report any customizations you have made to the ROM (themes, system apps, etc.)
    • Describe the problem clearly, including steps on how I can reproduce the issue.
    • Provide a logcat from your system taken just after the issue has occurred. To take a logcat, you enter this command from your PC: adb shell logcat -d >c:\logcat.txt. Copy and paste this log to pastebin.com, and provide the link.
    • If I ask you to re-test the issue after a data-wipe, do the following: reboot into ClockworkMod, perform a full backup, then data-wipe, reboot and retest the issue, giving a new log if necessary. You can then reboot into ClockworkMod and restore your data backup.

    Alternate download location: I would prefer if everybody used the ROM Manager application to download & install my ROMs. If you need to download from the PC, however, you can use this link.

    Troubleshooting Battery:

    In order to help me to troubleshoot issues with battery usage, please follow these instructions:

    • Charge your phone to 100% battery.
    • Use your phone normally for as long as possible (ideally, 12 hours) without plugging the phone into your PC or main charger for the entire test period.
    • When the test period has ended, plug in the phone and immediately take a "dumpstate" log:
      Code:
      adb shell dumpstate >dumpstate-u81x0-yournickname.log
    • Upload the log file to pastebin.com or multiupload.com
    • Provide a brief summary of your general usage during the test period, such as: wifi usage and sleep policy, 3g/data usage, approx time spent on calls/games/idle, any information you may think is helpful to troubleshoot battery drains.

    U8160 audio fix

    Hi,
    in the attachment you will find an AudioFilter.csv modified to enable the IIR and the ADRC on the main speaker. The overall audio quality has been tested instrumentally vs the stock ROM and appears to be improved a lot.
    The original file is in /system/etc and must be substituted with this one after to have renamed it from AudioFilter.txt to AudioFilter.csv.
    I suggest to use Root Explorer or adb to execute the sustitution. You will find detailed instructions in the forum, because the topic has already been covered. Every comment will be welcome.

    The psyke's ROM sister is born!

    Well..... after a long time (job) I am happy to return on this forum with a little gift for all the friends. Starting from yesterday is available at the following address:

    http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1729925&highlight=ac1953

    my personal build of CM7. Often I think to my ROM as the psyke's one sister :D .... similar but not equal. Psyke's one is the BIG SISTER.... without its wonderful job (thanks Conn) I wouldn't never focus my interest on Android. My ROM, on the other hand, has many improvements over the standard CM7 framework not available in any other CM7 ROM (don't worry psyke... I plan to publish soon ALL the patches I did on github.... if only I will have the time to do it :laugh:.... I changed A LOT of modules, hi) but, by choice, uses an old but very stable psyke's kernel, dated 2012/04/26. But, it is better, I think, to describe the ROM characteristics.

    GENERAL DATA
    Cyano sources updated to 2012/09/09

    KERNEL
    Psyke83 kernel dated 2012/04/26


    USER INTERFACE
    • Signal level bars color changing depending from signal level (7.2 source code fix)
    • Device parameters configuration exported in a dedicated application under settings (as psyke's ROM, but different application and parameters)
    • ICS/Jelly Beans extra wallpapers available in the wallpapers choice menu
    • ICS theme (developed by me) integrated in the Theme Chooser

    FRAMEWORK
    • Fix PIN entry in airplane mode;
    • WiFi signal level visualization synchronized with the true signal even when the phone starts with WiFi ON and a network is available
    • Data connection disabled after a full wipe to avoid unwanted charges
    • Call ring synchronized with the screen switch ON
    • Removed bug causing ringer sound distortion (skip of audio filtering)
    • Audio reference levels programmable for speaker, headphone and bluetooth channels (u8160 device settings)
    • Audio redirection to bluetooth headphone (u8160 device settings)
    • Workaround for apps which specify an invalid pixel format (i.e. Sygic)
    • Lists visualization bug removed (initial dots overlapped to text)


    CYANO APPS
    • MUSIC - Sound Start/Stop synchronized with incoming/outgoing calls
    • FM RADIO - Tuning/frequency visualization synchronization and switch on scratch removed (approach a little bit optimized)
    • SMS/MMS - Added button (and logic) to search and select multiple recipients
    • CONTACTS - Removed a 'no image scaling' bug I discovered when an icon is added to a contact
    • PHONE - Added the capability to assign an icon to its own contact. This icon will then be visualized from the system during conversations

    As you can see, my choice has been to optimize and extend the framework layer, leaving to psyke the kernel. As result you will have now the opportunity to choose between the two BEST ROMs today available for u8160, each with its peculiar characteristics, both to highest possible level for this device. Enjoy!
