Well Hello Fellows...
As u ppls can see on my Sig...i just returned my Htc G1 due to some keyboard issue..and i m ready to do some nasty work for my TP2 but i need some answers before doing something with my TP2..
1st-- y we need some custom rom like 6.5.5...while we are already getting everything on the stock rom..and custom roms are same as stock rom some of the difference that the apps tab icons are big(as i am seeing on Custom Rom )<---- Prove me if i m wrong about it
2nd-- i m sooooooo exited to see android on HP2 and i really appreciate the hard work of the developers but i will wait till complete rom comes out ...and my main cause was to buy that machine is to use android on it but i need some user experience.....
3-- i want to know that difference between dual boot ..
3a --- as i saw that a dev created an app that we can directly boot android when we turn on the phone without booting in to WM...
3b---other is that 1st we need to turn on windows mobile then android ...
4--i will ask later when i get my other answers
i want to know which process is best like which process drain minimum battery and run android kinda normal speed...i know that its not that fast but come on ..
these are the main ques that are like dancing all time in my mind..Plz ignore my dictionary and answer my ques
ThankYou..
1. Different ROMs provide different experiences. For instance, the 6.5.x ROMs have a more finger-friendly navigation altogether, with the Windows Start button being at the bottom of the screen instead of the top.
Different ROMs will also give you different benefits. NRGZ ROM comes cooked with a radio app that doesn't need headphones (but of course, if you have a CDMA TP2, you won't have a radio to begin with). Deep Shine ROM makes the most of the Zoom Bar down at the bottom of the screen of your TP2. And Valkyrie's ROMs (the one I use) provides the most stability.
Note though that 6.5.x ROMs tend to be slower than most stock-ROMs.
2. You should just try Android for yourself. In my experience, Android was good. I actually downloaded the Facebook app with it, right after I downloaded the Facebook app for WinMo. So it was funny to see those two updates on my Facebook.
Regardless, sound doesn't work, and Camera doesn't work. When those two functions work, I myself will probably be using Android more than WinMo. I don't care much about BT. Look in the Android section of this sub-forum, find out for yourself.
3. Dual-boot simply allows you to boot one operating system first. So say you didn't want to boot WinMo first, then Android, the dev's app allows your to just boot Android first before WinMo. Simple as that.
Ask anything else, but take a look around first.
thanks buddy for your quick reply
well i have Vodafone Tp2..idk that is Cdma or not right now i using stock rom for windows mobile 6.5.5..that what the device says it have Sense UI i think TF3d 2.5...so i saw not much difference between my stock rom and the custom rom..and for the android ques well i was asking that which way is better ot use android like i think if i boot throught windows mobile then windows mobile will also take some ram else if i directly turn on android then android will use all the ram.and atleast runs better for this direct process and drain less battery....thats what i think and well i watched alot of videos and surfing web for this like 2weeks before asking these ques....
4---well for some games i want to use fpecse emulator...so any way to overclock the tp2..becoz i saw some of the videos of the emulator on Hd2 .. it runs the game pretty smooth...
5--App2SD..well can we use ap2sd on TP2 while using android?? <---Dump ques
4. There isn't a way (yet) to overclock your TP2. Oddly enough, Android on the TP2 is overclocked. But overclocking it via WinMo isn't possible as of current.
Regardless, playing certain games on FPSCE like FF7 works just fine. The more graphically enhanced the game is, the more the phone will lag. Every game I've loaded onto my phone (including the graphically beautiful Call of Duty 2) has worked just fine. Certain games are only in VGA, so download the WVGA fix (it's located in the "Programs to Download for your TP2" thread in the sub-section "Themes and Apps").
5. I wouldn't know about that, but if you want to put programs on your SD card, I believe they have a fix for that in the Android programs already. So, see that thread in "Android Development."
thanks mate for your quick reply .. well what about ram consuming?? speed effects.. direct android boot or android through windmo??
i know that i need to test it my self but also want to know the ppls expreience about android
Alright, guys. I've been searching for an answer to this problem for about 2 weeks now and I can't find a great answer.
I converted my AT&T Tilt to Android successfully and I've been trying out a series of different ROMs to find the one that works the best for me. Currently, I am running 2.6.32_VOGUIMG-320-FROYO-01-16-11.NBH from l1q1d with barebones 5.1. However, I have tryied Incubus's Super Froyo, Myn's Warm Donut, etc. I've been very happy with most of the builds; however, I have problems playing video in every single release of Android that I have tried. This includes through Android's included movie player, Meridian, and the youtube app. I am using panel type 2 when I reconfigure the kernal using atools. I don't know if this is the correct panel type, as I don't know how to figure out which one I have. I don't know if this makes a difference for video.
Does anyone have any suggestions about how I could get video working in Android on my phone? It's the last missing link in getting my phone to work the way I want. Thanks.
Seriously. No one else has experienced this problem? I've literally spent hours searching XDA trying to find a solution.
Youtube works on mine... tell you what. Flash the nbh with panel type 1.
Even if you get screen artifacts, or other issues, try the video. If you can play, then you've isolated the problem to the panel type. If not... oh well.
I'll try meridian and see what i get.
Just out of curiosity, I tried flashing it with all three different panel types; same results. I have overclocked to 520 mhz; would this cause any problems? Every other program seems to work fine. I'm honestly baffled.
Via Atools or RogueTools ?
Via atools. Thanks.
Do not OC via Atools. Might not have nothing to do with it, but RogueTools seems MUCH more stable. Just and advice
Removing the overclocking from atools has not made any difference. Thanks for the suggestion, though.
Same problem. I managed to play some videos with poor quality, so maybe this is a performance related problem.
Looks like it's back to WM for me. The lack of video is a dealbreaker for me. Sorry that you're having the same issue, sloikas. Windows plays everything I've thrown at it.
Back to the dark ages on our kaisers lol? What may be affecting your video playback is the radio rom. It actually contains a little more than the radio and in my experience can affect playback of videos. Also if your trying to stream over edge, good luck with that. Over wifi I have next to no issues with Barebones 4.55, overclocked to 575 mhz and on wifi.
Thanks for the reply. Just out of curiosity, I tried three different radios: 1.70.18.02, 1.70.19.09, and 1.71.09.01. Same results with each of them. I don't have a data connection with my phone, so I am only using wifi. I have also tried to play MP4's on my SD card.
Video is supposed to be working. How exactly do you have it set up atm?

use KAISIMG, And mind that you need a corresponding kernel. Atools is creating problems for me in editing the kernels. I suggest you try a stock kernel with respective build. (FROYO kernel for FROYO, Eclair kernel for Eclair and Donut's for Donut). So far, Meridian is the best media player for me and I am using it on Donut (Warbyte's or Myn's ? your choice).
To check which panel type is nice and good is to check your SCREEN's colours. Are they perfect? is Touchscreen working good? and is brightness set good. First thing you notice after flashing wrong panel type is colours. Deformed Colours, usually u see each pixel as showing rainbows.
Flash a KAISIMG kernel I say and do not play with them on Atools / iHex or what so ever.
For instance try this,
http://phobos-lab.net/android/Warbyte Donut RLS04.zip
kernel is included and panel type is set to 1, Device keyboard is set to HTC Kaiser default. I say use iHex to edit the nbh for your suited panel type/keyboard.
Installing Data on SD Card can cause browsers to malfunction and almost Force Close on anything. Try installing on NAND (both SYS and DATA)

To play video, convert your clips/video to mp4 and use yxplayer to play them. This was the only working solution for video issues for me. Now I can play any video as long as it's in mp4 format and i'm using yxplayer to play it.
About youtube...are you on WIFI or mobile net? Youtube on wifi defaults to HQ video which our kaisers cannot play for some reason. Solution use 3G/H or if you're on wifi .......when the clip is loading click a HQ icon on the screen it should be in the right upper corner on the screen(depending on youtube app. version) that should load LQ/MQ version which plays fine on kaiser.
Thanks so much to dark_prince. His instructions worked perfectly for me. I now have a perfectly working (for me) Android phone. Awesome! Thanks to all that tried to assist.
Was just curious as to what build you were using. It basically sounded like he said to use a vanilla build with atools edit'd for whatever build you are going to use. I hate Donut just due to how old and slow it is. I do not think the build you are using matters, it sounds like you had a kernel configuration problem if it is now working.

for OLD I might agree. But for SLOW I wont ever. Donut is far far far far far far better than those eclairs or froyos out there. Particularly when my battery lasts for a day on Eclair / Froyo, it lasts for almost 48 hours crisp while using Donut. So please sir...
Well its like I said before, it is really the kernel that is making battery last longer. My barebones with a proper .32 kernel (Still waiting for clemsyn's .32 to be committed to git) and stock speeds is plenty fast and gets almost equal battery with more features and apps. I of course could overclock it but that drops battery to around a day which is more than adequate.
video doesn't work for me either....
I have VOGUIMG-320-FROYO-01-16-11 changed to kaiser and to panel 2 with atools... CM 6.1 barebones build both sys and data on nand... and is working really fine ( is the only one i've tried... )
already installed meridian and rockplayerbass the best i could get was with rockplayerbass with software render but the image was very ver slow... =(
erickrause01 , did you installed only kernel or entire build that dark_prince advised? and did you changed panel? what is the difference to change panel with atools and ihex? ( dunno how to use it ;P but if necessary will learn...
If only the kernel is needed to be changed, if i install new kernel do my installed build be ok or the process is re-installing kernel and then build again? i'm still with this doubt...
I would like to stay with this build because almost everything is running fine... little by little i'm getting my android to "perfection" hehe although some apps aren't working i'm finding solutions for almost everything.. video and camera is not one of that .. yet ;P
sorry for the bad english ;P
edit: when installing kernel i've changed name to KAISIMG
edit2: build is Scoot CyanogenMod 6.1 RLS5.5 not barebones....
hi, i cant play some games like PES 2011, real football manager etc on my HTC wildfire. Is there anyway to manage to do this through rom update or any other way?
thnks
It's due to old hardware. Using a Custom ROM with an overclock MAY smoothen the framerate of some games, but, it's still nowhere close to what one expects.
Hi
As 3xeno said is due to old hardware.
Games that require a lot of graphics do not work on wildfire.
Overclocking can a little better but still it is normal to not work correctly.
so if i update my rom would it be possible to play pro evolution soccer?
the thing is that i cant really install it as it says that my device doesnt support it.
changing me mother rom to another one will it solve it?
thanks for the quick reply.
In that case, I dont think changing ROMs will help. It can only help a bit only if it works by default, but at extremely slow rates. The Wildfire should be your last choice if you intend to use it for gaming. Can't give you more specifics, since I haven't really tried that game.
Hi Guys!
I'm glad to make my first post here, since I've been overseeing this forum for 6 months to tweak my X10^^
Now I have a brand new Alcatel ot995 ultra!
GB 2.3.6, 4,3" screen at 800x480px, around 380 MB of ram only (512 in the specs and reviews on the web), adreno 205, snapdragon 1.4ghz, etc...Wonderful for emulation, surfing and watching movies. Take a 32GB class 10 micro sd card right from the start: for 210 euros it will be a great multimedia device.
Since I love to enhance and optimize my devices, I quickly looked how to, root it, tweak it or OC it.
Unfortunately, the device isn't yet mentionned at XDA, only a few threads mention it, and I am a NOOB according to the welcome video,
BUT
I am gonna give you some piece of info to avoid you to search for 2 weeks how to root and tweak your precious, but first ask my 1000000 $ question:
- When I play on fpse with 2d games (castlevania- certain scenes of FFIX), the framerate drops to 32 fps. I was so frustrated to get the same performance than on my X10, on N64 it kicks ass and almost all games run smooth. Being a PC nerd, I guessed it was linked to some kind of software limit ("project igi" game was limited to 30fps for instance), kinda bad managed vsync. After one week, I found the solution: in the build.prop, I have to change the property "swap-interval" from "1" to "0". But as in the PC world, desactivating the vsync result in ugly glitches when you scroll.
So here is my issue: is there any solution to set the fps caps at 60 fps, the refresh rate of my screen. Because playing at 32 fps and activating frameskip is frustrating, and playing smooth at 50 fps with glitches annoys me too. What's the point to have a good hardware if it is not exploited well?
Now I give some tips to my ot995's owners fellows. I know we can find them on google, but I gather everything so you won't take 2 weeks like me to make everything (for my defense, I am blond, and have a girlfriend who keeps me away from my PC)
1) OT 995 is easy to root, with the application "super one click". I advise you to do it quickly so you can install task killers, set cpu, etc...
It was a lot easier than on my x10. By the way, I advise you to create profiles with low cpu frequencies for power loading and screen of, you will gain precious hours of battery life! idem with open advanced task killer, a must have, you will obtain more free memory and cpu power.. don't forget to desactivate wifi-bluetooth-gps-data when you don't use them, you have a widget in the status bar. I also changed of launcher for "holo launcher". It is way lighter than the 3d stock one, sober and classier, ICS like.
2)No finalised rom is avalaible yet, but a bunch of guys are starting something with a CM9 base:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1731574
Updt from 08/03/2012:
I tried the CM9 version of fonix! it runs smoothly, but no cam, no data, no bluetooth.
However, wifi works. Only a few apps are avalaible on it, no play store, it was a bit of a pain in the ass to reinstall all my apps and run tests to see if I gain some perfs, so I went back to my beloved tuned up version.
Fonix seems to be having some trouble and "lack of motivation and sources from alcatel", cheer him up guys!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1731574&page=7
Also I don"t remember how I did "it was late", but I managed to change my boot animation!
3) I advise you to install a recovery on the phone, so you can go deeper into tweaking afterward. So, make a BACKUP of your system!
http://dump.pargon.nl/alcatel/cwm-recovery/
look here for more information
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29534255
After having booted on recovery, backed up your system, flashed the recovery, you can now go further!
Now than you can access the recovery by pushing "power" and "vol +" buttons of the phone.
4) With a free soft like andromizer, you can tweak the build.prop!
I discovered that last week, and it is very powerful, reminds me the registry tweaks of windows. It can change drastically the behaviour of your phone, mine is way more responsive after the tweak.
Here you find a fine list:
http://androidforums.com/sony-erics...tweaks-power-boosting-your-android-phone.html
5) Don't forget to uninstall or freeze apps you don't use so they don't remain in background process (even with a task killer, you should cleanse the phone a bit, only a few apps are useful among the one alcatel provides). I use "Root Uninstaller", which can freeze the apps without uninstalling them, so you can activate them in case of mistake
6) I tried to change the boot animation in /system/media, replacing the stock bootanimation.zip by another one, and deleting former folders from alcatel, but I still have the original animation launching at boot. If someone knows, enlight me!
Come and feed this threads guys, on my side I'll try to complete those tips as soon as I find new stuff.
And I'll be glad to meet other OT995 owners, so express yourself
Hi and Congrats on your new Alcatel OT-995.
Which color you bought?
Don't forget to +1 for Alcatel Forum
I will buy this phone when it got ICS release or Custom roms! Lets hope the dev will consider this phone and get some XDA love
I will bookmark this thread and check it for updates :good:
PS: Moi aussi j'utilise le meme operateur "Orange" et c'est dans un Orange Shop que je vais bientot l'acheter
"Bonsoir" deadpunk! Other question about bluetooth devices.
Hi deadpunk!
I bought the red one, the finish and quality of the plastic is amazing for the price.
Okay, +1 for alcatel forum, I'll try to figure out how to do this to be effective. I found mine for 180 euros over the internet, it is a great deal for that price, even on stock rom.
What I can do is to make an .img of my rom and post it. So people could get a tuned up gingerbread rom. I am not a dev and have no pretention, but for sure guys who don't want to get their hands dirty could try it^^
ICS is announced for september, but well, to believe in santa claus would be more realistic than the phone builders. If I were richer, I would have bought the atrix, but the advantage of the tegra dual core at 1ghz is not so obvious.
Another question for xda allmighties:
I tried a few bluetooth keyboards on my ot995, and to connect a wiimote with blue imez on the phone, but I failed. Is it possible to connect any bluetooth KB and pads on Gingerbread? Or do I need to purchase more specific ones, like the phonejoy (I hesitate to buy it if it doesn't work neither, I am a poor geek).
Thanks!
Have you made all the steps in the link of n.4?
If so, did it improve the performance alot? Like in shadowgun?

Yeasis, try to write in build.prop or init.d file "debug.gr.swapinterval=0"
Hi yeasis!
I almost set everything except the video/movie/streaming tips. Ingame I didn't see any difference but the UI of my phone is way more responsive.
As I discovered today (I am just a padawan, more experienced guys are welcome to correct and complete me!), it is better to create an "init.d" file than edit the build.prop directly, the changes are easier to reverse so dig that option to avoid bricking your phone. Yet if you did a recovery backup and use andromizer you should have no issues, all went fine for me.
The most interesting option is to set the swap interval to 0, you can gain a lotta fps.Write in build.prop "debug.gr.swapinterval=0". if your are not allergic to the glitches this option can make a game previously unplayable smooth. On my side I keep it cuz it allows me to play to fpse with software plugin and no frame skip, opengl plugin remains to power greedy for the ot 995 on gingerbread
Have a try and gimme your feedback!
OT 995 owners, write to alcatel about ICS!
Well, I am quite present those times, since my girlfriend is 150 km away, I can now care about important matters, like my precious OT 995 and its supposed update to ICS in september.
So I sent a message to alcatel customer service, I will give you there answer (if they do) about a few questions and remarks I've found among the forums, here it is:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello Alcatel fellow!
I am the happy owner of an ot 995 ultra. I am really glad of this phone, its price/power/quality ratio is great, but a few things make me sad. I dunno if a lot of guys write like that to you, I hope you give me a detailled feedback
First, everywhere the phone is mentionned to include 512 MB of RAM and I have only 380 MB. Do you punish french people?! I am kidding, but well it is disappointing, those extra 132 MB are needed in case of gaming of heavy multitasking, or to install a future version of android.
Second point, what about an android 4.0 or 4.1 update? I've seen here and there rumours about an ICS update avalaible in september. Its competitor, the huawei honor already has it, and is really 512 MB of ram equipped, even if it is more expensive I know that a lotta people hesitate between these two devices, commercially speaking it would be wise to cell your flagship product with a newer, user-friendlier and more bluetooth devices compatible operating system.
If you prepare an ICS rom for the OT995, I would be glad to be a beta tester, assuming all the risks that it involves.
Otherwise, if you don't prepare officialy any update for ICS, try to help the few developpers working on that phone so the community can grow up and spread the good word about your phones!
Last but not least, I tried to connect some Bluetooth keyboards and a wiimote, without success. I'd love to use my phone as a gameStation or PC with my TV. Do you know any compatible BT keyboards and pads for this phone (for instance, the "phonejoy")
I love my OT995 ultra and think it is a great product which deserves to be known more.
I hope we keep in touch, have a good week end!
I wait for your response and send you my best regards!

Hello deadpunk! Yes I have an answer, I am a bit disappointed but the thing to know is that 128 MB of ram go to the gpu, it's huge according to me for an adreno 205!
Dear Guillaume,
Please note that ONE TOUCH 995 RAM memory is 512 MB ,but 512 MB divide into GPU running space and storage space, so that user cannot fully use 512 MB .
We have already set up plan to upgrade 995 to Android 4.0. But when will it be released and whether every 995 or just a part of 995 will be upgraded are not sure yet. Please keep an eye on our website
Sorry that Alcatel doesn't have BT keyboard and we can't guarantee other brand BT keyboards can be compatible with ONE TOUCH 995. We sincerely apologize the inconvenience!
Should you have another request, do not hesitate to contact us.
Thank you for choosing Alcatel!
Apparently you've got your alcatel and rooted, don't hesitate to post here if you find new stuff about it (rom, update etc...)
See ya!:laugh:

Yeah,Got mine and its really nice phone :laugh: didnt like the alcatel launcher, installed Holo Launcher and its pretty much like my SGS2 but there's one prob with this phone.Power button sometimes doesnt work, need to pull the battery out or reboot through terminal.
I can see only around 300MB(200mb for gpu???really?) which is weird.My SGS2 which is 1GB RAM shows 830MB(170MB left for GPU).
For ICS update,Alcatel One Touch Fr (facebook) said that it will be for september and I'm pretty sure it will be release as its a very popular phone in france.
btw: On XDA portal today, i saw this Create-your-own-flashable-zip-via-clockworkmod-recovery/. If someone can port this CWM to the OT-995, it will help us to create an update zip which user can share with all modification/tweaks/etc... :good:

Hey Guillaume.miossec.71 !
Can you tell me what are the tweaks you have done in the build.prop ? Can you post your build.prop here so that i can compare
The only thing i dont like: I got blurry pic when opening it in gallery.
Did you try camera360 on your OT-995 ? Great app with many features and i'm getting better shot than the default cam app :good:

Maybe try to replace the animation in /custpack/JRD_custres/media/, too. I think this one is used instead of the one in /system if it is there (never tried).

Okay, +1 for alcatel forum, I'll try to figure out how to do this to be effective. I found mine for 180 euros over the internet, it is a great deal for that price, even on stock rom.

Agree (got the black one).
this device has same specs as galaxy s plus i9001 so can u port a rom?
Hey guys, sorry to answer 3 months later!
Hi everybody! Since My life has been quite busy I have not posted anything in the last months...
For the build.prop tweaks be cautious, some were counter efficient on my phone and 90% of them have proven to be useless.
You can give a try to "pimp my rom" which will guide you well through various menu full of parameters to tweak your rom yourself .
Nevertheless, I've tested several rom for the OT995 like CM10, PA 2.52 and 2.55, H1N1, PACMAN rom, etc..
These are all very smooth and pleasant to use.
I like a lot the work of BENETNATH, he surely is the guy who involves the most in the OT995 rom process,
providing update frequently. Even if I'd rather use the simplier cm10 than PA on my phone,
I follow with interest the job he's doing.
Unfortunately I can't comment his posts yet since I am a newbie on XDA with 6 posts
Alas,I have a big complain/request and hope some of you guys can transmit it: DATA and network browsing are not working with my phone on the last PA 2.55, cm10 and PAC Rom!!! I'm in France, using a B&You sim card
I really want jelly bean on my phone, to enjoy project butter smoothness for instance, please work on it guys, I'd be so grateful!!:good:

Otherwise, I've solved my fpscaps problem, everything is goddamn smooth (50fps+) with the last release of fpse. It's a very good app, but I also
advise you to try EPSXE. I've been using it for ages on PC, and the android version is pretty sweet. Although it lacks of parameters to enhance
graphics/sound, it's working really fine (even better than FPSE) on my favorite rom (FFIX: sound is now perfect!!! and castlevania SOT.Night).
If you wanna test it, you can grab your fpse memcard files, rename them and paste them in EPSXE "memcards" folder (not working for the
sstates).

I've also bought Chainfire 3d, mainly to use the EGL driver with the antialiasing option. I don't see anything on EPSXE (surely cuz I don't use the
opengl plugin, not playable on this hardware), but I observe a great bump of quality under "chaos ring", the square Enix RPG. It was pixellised,
now it renders perfectly without losing any FPS. So if like me your device is more like a nomad game station, give it a shot
Don't hesitate if you wanna discuss on these topics
