Important Notes

Important Notes:

--> Some Functions Of GravityBox Are Not Fully Supported Because Of The Modified/Themed UI.

--> Black Screen While Calling? Go To GravityBox > Phone Tweaks > Full Screen Caller Display > Set It To Full :)

--> You Can Change The Battery Icon Or Network Icon Using Flast Style Bar Indicators (Xposed Module). Battery Icon Gets Crapified On Installing GravityBox Module.

--> Seeder Is Included In ROM To Reduce Lags. You Can Activate It If You Face UI Lags.

--> Custom Bootanimation Is Not Supported On This ROM. So, Please Don't Change It.

--> Please Don't Uninstall Any System App! Or Else You Will Face Serious Issues.

--> Install xInternal (Xposed Module) On This ROM To Set SDCard As Default Storage :p

--> This ROM Has Been Ported From Philips I908 So Don't Come To Me That Its Philips UI & We've Already Used It Bla Bla Bla :D

--> Port Device Has 8 MP Camera So Stock Camera Has 8 MP Resolution! Use SnapCamera Instead :)

you say : "Some Functions Of GravityBox Are Not Fully Supported Because Of The Modified/Themed UI."

This means that v3 has a different UI from v2 ? No AOSP UI anymore?
And when you say that some Gravity box settings don't work,can you give us an example?Can you edit the quick settings tiles?

I am using v2 since the beginning,very good rom.

The only bugs it has (and they are quite annoying) are that on some settings pages the changes you do don't stay after a reboot.
The settings that do that are:

1) usb debugging (turns off by itself on reboot)
2) accessibility/services (most of the times after a reboot the checkboxes of the apps that require a constant service running,switch to ''off''
3) autostart management (your settings do not remain after a reboot)
4) sometimes when you are using 2 sim cards when you turn data on and off from quick settings tiles,the rom can't remember for which card you turned data off and when you re-enable data it enables data on the other sim card than the one that you had previously turned data off.

If you could fix these,along with some lag/game performance issues that are present on v2,this rom would be excellent!
The volume steps are also not set good.The first volume step after complete silence is WAY too loud!

Bricked my A310

Downloads:

v3 Releasing On 4th April 2015

Previous Versions:

xTremeVanilla v1
Xposed Installer Patch
hey Bro,
I am afraid my A310 phone is bricked now. I had the android L ROM by pintothakur installed on my phone using TWRP touch recovery (Red) before. Today when i tried to install this Xtremevanilla ROM on my phone (after clearing cache, delvik cache and system) i selected both zip files vanilla and xposed patch and tried to install but it failed. I dont remember the error :( . Then i tried once again with only Vanilla zip file this time but it failed again. I think then I made a mistake of restarting the phone (without installing another ROM :confused: ) It asked me that my phone didn't seem rooted and if i wanted to install SuperSU . I selected installation of Superuser. And after that the phone restarted but could not get past the micromax logo. I tried pressing Vol down button and power button together to go into recovery mode or pressing Vol+ and power for a fast boot, but notihng worked. and now my phone doesn't go beyond that logo.

So, is there any way I can get my phone back . Any help from anybody would be really appreciated. And I'm sorry if I'm asking this in a wrong forum. Thanks in advance guys.

P.S. is there any chance it happened because of some clash in SuperSu Pro already installed on phone and the one it asked me to install after ROM install failure? And I would also like to tell that when i connect it to my laptop it shows one battery charging logo with battery almost nil though LED doesnt show any color for charging battery. I dont know how it could drop to zero as i tried rom installation when battery was more than 60%.

The Only Thing That Doesn't Work Is Battery Icon Changing Via Gravity Box! You Can Change It Via Flat Style Bar Indicators (Xposed)! And Yes, The UI Is A Lot Different From v2 But Its Still An AOSP! Ported From A Philips Device! :)

i always recommend CWM or PhilZ for flashing ROMs on A310! You can flash fresh stock rom using YGDP tool! You need to download your stock ROM first! Head over to needrom.com for stock rom & flashing guide!

Great rom, dude...
Flashed using twrp 2.4.4.

Let me notice that..
-There's no brightness set to auto tile visible on notification pull down menu.
-Can't save Facebook photos, screenshots etc on sd card. Xposed module has no effect. I tried with picture2sd but still nothing.
-some smalli texts get cropped downsides. For example, check gravity box-lockscreen tweaks
Look at the background opacity value... 50% is a bit cropped downsides
Not a big deal.
-battery indication can't be removed from status bar but you can add one another indication battery style from gravity box next the stock one
