[ROM] Stock 4.1.4 For 101xs, Clean, Stable, Root - Gen10 Android Development

Hello guys,
8 years after the release of my 4.1.2 rooted rom, I retrieved my 101 xs and I updated my rom. So here it is, an updated 4.1.4 rom, rooted and optimized that you can install now (don't forget to make backups of course).
I mainly got the tweaks from BlueAndroid: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2073859
What I did
Retrieved build.prop enhancements and init.d tweaks from BlueAndroid
Updated busybox to 1.32-Stericsson
Updated CA certs from my recent Samsung phone, because the stock ones were expired
Removed ui sounds completely, I dislike them
Added custom host file for blocking ad servers
Added Viper4Android 2.4.0.1 (was Awesome Beats on 4.1.2)
Added Sony Walkman (music player)
Added Mixplorer v6.57.1 and MixArchive
Added Seeder (entropy generator to reduce lag)
I didn't do any UI tweaks (I'm not good at this). If someone wants, just do it. If you want to build your own version of the rom, I've made a script that builds the patched rom from the stock file. It runs under Linux or WSL. You'll have to download mkrom.zip and androidmerged.squashfs. Unzip the zip and place the squashfs file in the same directory. Then run mkrom.sh, and if everything goes well you should get a file named archos.ext4, ready to be installed (see Installation below).
Also I tried putting more recent versions of Google Play Store and Archos apps in the system/app folder, but when I did this, the apps were not working correctly, so I left them as their old versions. If someone has an explanation, please tell me
Download
Version 1: Archos_4.1.4_Mwyann_1.zip
Installation
I'm just gonna copy/paste BlueAndroid installation instructions here:
Install Developer Edition if you didn't already
connect USB cable & check if USB debugging is already enabled !
put archos.ext4 in your device ( root directory ! ) , or using adb command :$ adb push archos.ext4 /mnt/storage ;
go to recovery -> Developer Edition Menu -> Remove Android Kernel ( if exist ! ) -> Flash Kernel & Initramfs -> copy here zImage and initramfs.cpio.lzo in the new drive that appears !
OK -> wait to reboot -> enjoy the new rom
Don't hesitate to tell me if it worked or not, and what you think of this.

Hi!
I have tried to install it, but when I restart the device it just do not want to boot.
It freez ad the Archos logo screen!
What I am doing wrong!
I have dongraded my device to 4.0.26 version.
After that I have enabled the USB debuging.
Than I have installed the SDK version from Archos web site.
Restart and paste your firmware.
Restart again and flash the zImage and initramfs.cpio.lzo (deleting ar not the Archos Kernel - no matter the result is the same - freez).
And nothing. Any help?!?!
Thanks!
PS: May be there is something wrong with your zImage and initramfs.cpio.lzo files, because with the files from this post it works.

So it did work with the new zImage and initramfs.cpio.lzo files? It's possible I just took the wrong files, from 4.1.1. I'll update those files soon.
Edit: Files updated to 4.1.2, should be fine now.

I will trythis method on the 97xs

Great It is ok
if you use the 4.0.26 !!!

doesn't work for me, "Usb connection : please copy a zImage and an initramfs, then press ok to disconnect" i used adb to put

THANKS for your THANKS :good:

Bump to this thread, because I've updated it after 8 years Enjoy a fresh 4.1.4 rom, rooted and updated as far as I could.

How do I import a ROM into the kitchen to use as my base?
From a shipped ROM:
First, find the shipped ROM for your device, usually from htc.com or from searching xda-developers (check the Wiki or sticky posts under your device's sub-forum).
This link may help: Various devices
Please don't ask me for links, as I don't know everything or own all devices. ;-)
The shipped ROM can be found in three different formats. Identify the type you have downloaded:
If the shipped ROM is in a .ZIP format, then simply copy it to the kitchen's original_update folder.
OR if the shipped ROM consists of system.img and boot.img files, then copy those two files to the kitchen's original_update folder.
OR if the shipped ROM is in an .EXE format, then do the following:
In Windows, run the shipped ROM's .EXE file till it gets to the first dialog. Stop there but don't close the window yet.
Go to Start->Run and type: %TEMP%
When the folder opens, search for Rom.zip (use the "magnifying glass" Search button)
Copy Rom.zip to your kitchen's original_update folder
OR from a cooked/custom ROM:
Copy the update.zip (or equivalent ZIP file) to your kitchen's original_update folder
OR from a Nandroid backup (under /sdcard/nandroid) [NOT RECOMMENDED FOR NON-STOCK ROM BACKUPS]:
Copy the system.img and boot.img files from the backup folder to your kitchen's original_update folder
NOTE: The Nandroid-backup method of ROM customization is not the best method, because the kitchen may not account for various advanced options that were added outside of this kitchen (these options are in the update-script file which was in the original ROM but is not in the backup. The kitchen needs to re-create this file and 'guess' those options). However, it will support Nandroid backups that already have basic features like root, busybox and /data/app functionality.

Nice to know that an arabian is cooking
Waiting your builds because i'm sure you will be incorporating arabic roms and full arabic support by default!
This error sound of something wrong in updater-script, in this kitchen you must:
1. convert updater-script to update-script for working on it
2. convert it back to updater-script before make the zip process.
Anyway fore me it worked at 1st shot and this is what i made and in Dsixda thread there is a good tutorial and a video that explain all.

Thanks for your reply, I did convert it back and forth though but still same error. The tutorials are very nice and I did follow them to the letter. Will try again today after I get back home from work and will try to get another base to start from.
Np raptordin,
if you wanna say to me what build you are trying to mod and what mod you want to do, i can give it a go and see if i get the same error.

Will test again in an hour or so when I get home and report back. Thanks for your interest.
Just a reminder -- if you have a boot.img in your ROM's working folder, and it didn't get converted to "boot" folder after building the ROM, then you have to do the conversion manually.
1) Select option 20 - "Unpack or re-pack a boot.img"
2) Select option c - "Convert boot.img into NAND boot folder"
Then you can build.
If you are using a custom HD2 ROM then this step is probably not necessary, as the kitchen will aready have created the boot folder and removed the boot.img. To make sure, just open the .ZIP file that was created by the kitchen after building.
Thanks for info Dsixda,
I'm facing a couple of problems with the Kitchen, here they are:
1. In the Kitchen Rom info app2sd are not installed but it still in init.d
2. if i add /data/app (option 13) market apps installation end with an error.

So you don't have an "a2sd" file under /system/bin or /system/xbin or anywhere else? What options did you select for apps2sd (e.g. runparts?).
2. if i add /data/app (option 13) market apps installation end with an error.

You need to be specific.. what is the error? And when you say 'installation' do you mean while the kitchen is adding the data/app folder, or while the ROM is booting?
Nope, there is nothing in there but there is the script in init.d " 10app2sd", though i'm speaking of original update.zip.

Is it really apps2sd (apps to ext3) or is it just that hack that is used to move all apps to the fat32 partition of the SD card (the option that is in Settings of Cyanogen ROMs)? Can you paste the contents of that file here please (in

[QUOTE]

I don't know anything about that, probably your device's or ROM's issue because it works elsewhere. When the kitchen adds /data/app to the working folder it only sets the permissions for that folder when flashing.

["fugutweak"] for Overcome 4.0.0

**** managed to post this in dev - please move?
In good spirit of fugu I ripped some bin's 'n' lib's from JQ3 (GB 2.3.5) and made them flashable via cwm for Overcome 4.0.0 (and possibly for lower versions to). Ive tested this for about a week without issues..
Files updated in bin folder
app_process
system_server
Files updated in libs folder
libopencore_player.so
libquickview.so
libstagefright.so
libsthmb.so
libtflua.so
libtfutils.so
I suggest make a copy of these files before proseeding and put them in a recovery file to revert changes.
Note, tried to update libsurfaceflinger.so but phone won't boot, therefore its removed.
Download
Where do you want it moving to?
It looks like it belongs in Development. Is this for another device?
Can you say what exactly this update do? better media playback?
Fugu tweaks are System server and app process, from sgs
Which device are these from?
you've done ......."more"...
why not call it something else?
is this usable tweak for overcome 4
please specify what will be change/diffrent before and after use this tweak,thank you.

[ROM] {NAND} AOSP-GBX | < Kernel: 2.6.27 > | 2013.01.20

Hello everyone!
Perhaps you know me, I'm trying to revive the NANDROID on our beloved HTC Thouch HD, aka Blackstone.
I want to thank to XDAndroid developers team & detule, they create & make it possible/available with pathes on gitorious or others site for the SD kernel source and a GBX tree!
Thank to Arganis31 for the great work on Blackstone LK!!! { LK source, soon on the git from Arganis31 }
Of course deepest of respect to [ACL] for everythings!
And everyone who i forget!!!
Please note :
- I don’t take any responsibility for any damage to your device! So use at your own risk!!!
- My kernel source is here: https://gitorious.org/linux-msm-blac-nand/linux-msm-blac-nand
- Change Log – 2 post ; Install – 3 post
- This is not an official GBX release, rather something I compiled from the current GBX tree.
- This is work in progress, so there may be minor or major problems
- Please attach your getlogs if you have some problem, thank you
Main problem is:
- Shutdown / reboot { just hang on } not working need reset or battery pull out.
- 3D not really good so if i enabled HW3D than i get a blank screen :/ { gralloc or kernel pmem issue??? }
- Any others are working, like SD version or just better.
I am a only who are working on the Blac Nand Kernel & setup the ROM right, Im updating g3rm0 git source with some good stuff, I can say that now i got it a lot of better funkcionality on nand. Nearly everythings updated on source. For example new acoustic code working on nand and audio fully working, with BT audio too!!!
Any help are welcome and thanked If you think that's right.

* All files ready which you need on downloads place.
Installation guide from Windows Mobile to the Android:
Thanks to FazZ & Nick Brown! Great work!​
1. Flash the latest HardSPL from OliNex
2. Extract the 'adb files & fastboot.exe' files to a folder and grab the latest recovery-XY.img from Necessary files and older downloads. Place it in the same older and rename it to recovery.img
3. Format the microSD card fully as FAT32
4. Copy the 'BlacIMG.NBH' file and your selected ROM (zip) you wish to use to the root of the microSD
5. Boot in TriColour mode (Power button and Volume down button)
6. Whilst in the TriColour mode, connect the Blackstone to a USB port ('Serial' should now say 'USB')
7. Run 'BlackstoneRUUAdvanced' and select the 'Task 29' which is full wipe of the Blackstone
8. Once completed, insert the microSD card and reboot into the TriColour mode again
9. The Blackstone will auto-flash-install (after key confirmation) the 'BlacIMG.NBH' on the microSD card
10. The 'BlacIMG.NBH' must NOT be flashed via Windows using the RUU tool (it will only fail)
11. Once flashed with the 'BlacIMG.NBH' it will reboot to a new Fastboot screen (blue background)
Note: the phone won't automatically reboot, you have to reboot it manually
12. After a short time the Blackstone in Fastboot mode with enter a USB connect ready state
13. Now connect the Blackstone to your Windows OS and open a CLi/Command prompt
14. Within CLi go to the directory where you place the 'adb files & fastboot.exe' files (from step 2)
15. Type: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (this will flash install the custom CWR)
Note: The "recovery.img" file has to be in the same directory as fastboot.exe. It is in the "Necessary Files" download folder of the 1st post.
16. Then type: fastboot boot recovery.img (this will reboot your Blackstone into CWR)
17. In CWR use the Volume keys to move up and down, and the Power button to select
18. First thing to do in the recovery screen is press Volume-Up, Volume-Down, Volume-Up, then you will see a message at the bottom of the screen that says
'Back menu button enabled' , after power button using for the selecting in the menu!
19. You are now finally ready to install your chosen ROM that is on your microSD
20. Once installed, let it reboot into Android OS which takes about 5 minutes on the first run
21. Once the Blackstone has settled within the OS (you can see the typical Android home screen), reboot
22. This time round, it should only take about a minute to start and you can now start using you NAND ROM
Installation guide from before versions or another Android to the New Android:
​
1. You need make one reboot and pressing power key on fastboot screen - this will booting your Blackstone into CWR)
2. In CWR use the Volume keys to move up and down, and the Power button to select

Hey, i dont want to be ungrateful, youre doing a great job, but the most important fact is to get wifi working, without wifi there is nearly no sense for android...
thanks for your work
Hi, the installation is to complecated for me (for the moment) (also beacause I'm a french speaker). So as soon as it will be easier for me to understand, i'll try it.
Thank you for bringing balckstone back to live. Keep going.
Use the thanks button.
Thanks
great Rom
If necessary i could help translate into german/french
Thx Fagyi
work great than the others roms.
^^
test it since yesterday..
everything is ok, but my ram is very low.
maybe the next rom from Fagyi be better again.
i'm waiting for it.
sorry for my english...
thx Fagyi :good:
After leaving my Blackstone sitting in the dark for quite some time, I think it's time to take it out and flash something new.
Good job OP. But as mentioned, wifi is the most urgent stuff to be fixed. If you need testers I would gladly help, just pm me
he's trying... It's really hard you know
boot.img install
Hi,
Giving your ROM a try. All installed well and Android came up OK. My only question is about the boot.img installation. How do I install it and what does it do?
If android is running, your boot.img is installed (boot.img is included in the flashable .zip
btw, you dont have blackstone on your sig... this is only for blackstones!

Thanks, that's what I thought but just wanted to make sure.
My blackstone isn't in my sig because it is my "play" device. But if this ROM is stable and can be used as my regular phone, I may finally replace my Rhod210 running WM6.5 and make that one my play phone.
This ROM is stable, a lot faster than SD ROMs and as some functions that even work better than on SD! (like bluetooth) If you can survive w/o wifi, you're good to go!

Wifi is good to have, but I can live without it if I must. BT, GPS, phone & battery life are crucial to me for navigation and music in my car so if those 2 work and 3G, I can give it a real try.
then yes, you are good to go
the only thing that can go wrong is battery life but try it out and see for yourself.

Well, now that it is up and running, I'll reinstall via Titanium from my Rhodium all my apps and give it a good run. Hopefully, I'll be back in a few days with GREAT reports!!!:fingers-crossed:

[Flashable Zip] Android 4.2.2 Phone Application

I have created this for a user but you may flash it if you want.
This is phone, not dialer since this is the previous version from Android 4.2.2.
I did not get the phone application itself so I don't know which rom is it from (most likely a stock one).
Download Link: http://caftp.pcsat.tv/Flashable_zips/Phone_4.2.2_Installer/
Thanks to: @plegdroid - Phone apk provided and a base flashable zip to collect the script binary, some newer mount commands found in the updater script and a useful delete command which seems just too easy to remember which was provided to me. - Tester

[Aroma][addons][patch]install any KitKat rom with any recovery[Dualboot tool]

Hi all.
before anything :
- this tool is for especialy for dualbooters because i havent tested in 1rst rom. but updater-script manage kernel flashed. prepare odin in case of bad flash, you're advised.
- always make nandroid before use and flash with my tool.
I saw that ppl have many trouble to install 4.4.2 kitkat roms on their device.
it seems that we have manu such "error status 7" , and these were about setting persmissions during flash.
so i decide to make an aroma to avoid this error.
if you flash an original 4.4.2 Kitkat rom and have the error, no need to flash another compatible recovery kernel to re-try, just use my aroma flasher with the steps i descride below. In the aroma advanced MENU, you will choose set_perm commands compatible flash instead of set_metadata commands persmission to see if flask process will work in fine
Sure, at end of process, a kernel will be flashed, dorimanx branch 8 i have put in pach you went to donwload, or another you have put instead like i describe in extra step 6 below too.
so, AROMA structure details is like this :
pach/AROMA
---------backupEFS <------- useful script, no need to touch.
---------KERNEL <------- place here your boot.img file. (original rom or other)
---------maliv2
-------------system/lib/egl/ <-------- maliv2 .so libs contents, no need to touch.
pach/data/app <--------- you can put som apks here, moved from /system/app/ (i often move in latinIME.apk from /system/app/ and then i free 40Mo on /system/ partition, its good for GAPPS)
pach/META-INF/....../ <--------- no need to touch.
the available download pach i use for some months now , is here :
UniversalAROMAinstallerFOR-4.4.2-ROMs-DefinitivePach.rar - 8.53 MB
how to use it
1 - download any kitkat 4.4.2 ROM your want to install I9100.
2 - try it normaly, and see if you have error on flash.
3 - when you got it, on PC, make a safe copy ot it somewhere, and open it with WINRAR. Then delete META-INF and other boot.img file. just let system folder in ZIP.
4 - uncompree my AROMA somewhere.
5 - drag and drop the 3 "bolded" folders (in aroma structured details) in ZIP rom you still have opened.
extra step 6 : in AROMA/KERNEL/ folder, you will find dorimanx branch 8 version (new @StanTRC recovery inside) i have put. You can replace it with any boot.img you want , even those from original rom zip you have safely somewhere on your PC. just extract boot.img from it and replace with in you new aroma installer rom zip you went to manage in steps 3, 4 and 5 .
aroma choice you will have :
"Compatibility of your Recovery Kernel",
"Your Kernel is compatible for set_metadata commands"
"Your Kernel ONLY understand set_perm commands"
"choose your based KK similar rom",
"AOSB BEANSTALK C-ROM EHNDROIX"
"CARBON"
"CM11 JELLYBAM"
"SABER PAC"
"PA"
"Resurrection Remix"
"SLIM SPIRIT"
"NEATROM AICP"
"SOKP"
"Backup EFS",
"Backup your EFS folder before flash"
"Skip"
"Kernel to flash at end of process",
"DorimanX 8 and MaliV2"<---------- option that serve to flash MALIV2 for dorimanX branch 8 users, dualbooters.
"any other kernel"
EXTRA TOOL : .db qulite bases "wiper" , it delete some .db files in some /data/data/com.android........../databases/ folders, usefull when we flash from <> based 4.4.2 roms, CM11 , RR , PAC , SLIM, PA....sometimes worked fines for me.
"Delete some SQlite .db files in ROM",
"YES ","Delete some SQlite .db from you installed rom to avoid com.android.phone FC or other FCs"
"NO thanks we can FLASH the ROM"
again, this is just for test and fun , dualbooters will like more that "normal" users. no risk to flash kernel in 2nd rom, but remember need maliv2 during AROMA....and i always afraid someone that try my work on 1rst rom will brick its device.....so i advertise everyone that before upload my "daily" works, i'm not always flashing them on my 1rst rom.
thanks.

i have made one pach with onle play store and google services , with others goodies, but i can re-script it with gapps. give me a way to follow what you think ppl need the most .
i mean this one, but i'm on some research about better way to use it, tomorrow i will post good version.
I9100-Aroma-addonsFor-KitKat-4.4.2-ROMS.zip - 180.81 MB
this one is that one i use in video review, you see i NEVER have trouble with space /system/ partition because initial ZIP ROM is modify with some apk in /data/app/ during flash, so i can add more goodies in /system/app/ using this aroma with play store, google sphere and touchwizz i use....see tuto how to move apks from /system/app/ to data/app/ before flash the rom and then gain space on /system/ to flash more files without disturbing /data/app/ we never want to full wipe to.
AND REMEBER external .sh script dont work well with dorimanx new recovery, i mean move choice in aroma so its better to have space in system before use and not use these options during aroma (i mean options to gain space)
thanks.
