V1.3 can be found here
Please note: I am NOT the original creator of this ROM, this ROM was originally made by Civato, and as a result, he deserves all the credit for it. All I did was modify a few things in order to make it work and display a little better on our A100.
The original ROM was called RE-FLEXxx-ShellSHOCK and is based on This thread . If you happen to like this ROM make sure you hit up his thanks button, or better yet, send him a donation.
Some Features:
- Bits and pieces taken from Android 4.0.4 and 4.1 (mainly based on 4.0.4) off of ROMS from the Acer A500 and A700.
- Boatloads of scripts and tweaks for performance
- Acer features like the Acer Ring (WIP), Acer Print, and Dolby Mobile
- Most of the bloatware removed
- godmachine kernel pre-overclocked at 1.2GHZ. If you want to change that you will need an app for it.
- Google Now with functional TTS for other apps
- nice and fancy notification screen (taken from the A700)
- lots more
- Capacitive home button now launches google now or long press for Google Voice Search
-modified font and softkeys for unique UI
-Awesome BEATS
-Entropy Seeder 2.0
-LMT launcher (sort of like PIE for Paranoid Android)
For more information, you can check out his thread for his A500 here. Keep in mind that the more updates I do, the more it differs from that thread
DISCLAIMER: I will not be held responsible if this borks your system! Remember the risks of flashing custom ROMS!
Instructions:
Make sure you do a FULL NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE INSTALLING
Also make sure you do a COMPLETE WIPE (Data/Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, and format flexrom)
Install ZIP from your SD card (or wherever you downloaded it to)
Reboot!
BUGS/QUIRKS:
1) Although the lockscreen is 100% functional, you might notice that it looks a little funny when swiping to unlock.
2) It has come to my attention that headset microphones don't work on this ROM. I don't know if it is as of the last update or it has been a persistent issue. A way to temporary solve this is to download an app from the Play store called "soundabout" In this app, there is an option where you can force the microphone to work from the device, even when a headset is plugged in.
If there is anything else, please let me know!
One other thing I would like to note, is that it seems that the "touchscreen issue" is much less apparent with this ROM. Perhaps some people who commonly have that problem can provide feedback on this.
A BIG FAT THANKS TO CIVATO!

EXTRAS
I have created some CWM zips to change the behaviour of the capacitive home button. You can find them Here.
One more thing. If you want to run the Entropy Seeder then open up the app Terminal Emulator then type:
su
seeder
that will give you 4 options for turning it on or off etc.

Initial Release
Does this mean that the original KEBBERSROM is discontinued in favor of this one?
I still have at least one update in store for the original kebbersrom, and likely more, but I'm thinking of keeping it a stockish rom and perhaps be editing this one more and making it less stock like because of all the awesome additions already made to it.

I have RE-FLEXxx-ShellSHOCK on my 500 and I'm glad that someone has made it available for the 100. Kudos to Civato and hardslog!

Nice m8, good job!
About Acer ring on A100, don't use the Jellybean ring , use the other one from the ICS rom.(1.0 acerring version)
Then make the outerring (not possible in the JB ring) transparent. That will make the outer ring disappear and you will get only the innerring with icons and the volume slider. This will be shown correctly.
Unpack the Acerring apk with winrar (or decompile but for a image mod like this it is not needed) , and in drawable you make "outter_ring.png" 100% transparent.(with a image tool)
Thanks for the advice Civato, I'll definitely give that a try and we will see what happens! I have a decent idea on the acerring, because I have been fiddling around with the old ICS one on my other ROM and almost have that to my liking.
In terms of the lockscreen issue that was there before, it turns out that it wasn't a screen resolution issue, it was actually an icon issue. It was missing one of the drawable folders for the unlock icons that I saw in the framework-res.apk of the A100 roms, so I added it in and boom, the lockscreen came back (although the unlock animations are still a bit funny looking, but it's fully working).

Have you found out where the animations are located within the framework-res.apk... more so if they're in their own folder within the apk?

To be honest I haven't looked into it yet. All the animations are there. You will only notice the funny animation if you press on the unlock button without "swiping" it. You will see the lock icon move to the right of the screen. All the other animations work properly and the lockscreen is fully functional so it hasn't exactly been on the top of my priority list.
Update: Kebbersrom_shellshock v1.1
Released a minor update that fixes the Acer Ring layout as well as the camera upside down bug. Thanks again to Civato for helping in doing this.
I might be releasing some CWM zips to change the capacitive home button. I changed it to google now/voice search but I'm sure some people won't like it.
Dumb question but is it okay for me to flash this over 1.0 or should I do a clean wipe and install?
You probably can, but make sure you do a nandroid backup first in case something goes wrong. Alternatively, I actually wiped everything first (including Flexrom) and flashed the new version, then went into backup and restore, and advanced restore, restored data. This was in CWM. That brought everything back I had in V1.0
All quiet on the A100 dev front............

You should fix that

Fine then I will!
Attached are CWM zips for capacitive home button. I think they are fairly self-explanatory. One will make it the home button that it is meant for, one will disable it for those who don't like it, and the third will allow it to launch Google Now, as per this ROM's default.
All you need to do is download them, place them onto your device and then flash with CWM. There is no need to wipe anything before flashing. Just flash and reboot. I tested them all and they are working fine for me. You might want to do a backup first though, just to be on the safe side.
this comes to you thanks to 1ceb0x and rukin. Both great devs. These are 1ceb0x's builds for GSM, cdma-ified. You should hit up their original threads here:
1ceb0x's thread
Rukin's thread
Also a giant thanks to Curiousn00b, who fixed the videocam recording issue. Please thank him!
1ceb0x was nice enough to let me bring this to you, so keep it civil in here guys. Bugs will be the exact same as his builds, i just cdma-ified them so we can enjoy them too. New build is coming as i type this, now we will be on par with 1ceb0x's gsm builds.
Leave me bugreports if things dont work. Logcats and a description of the problem are helpful. All bugs will be present in both 1ce's gsm build and my cdma build from him.

To be honest, this is not tablet mode at all. This project will entirely transform your device, but retain the aesthetics and the feel of it.

Chose your statusbar style, regular PhoneUI, Nexus7-PhabletUI or a combined TabletUI systembar. Choose from a variety of toggles and toggle layouts, switches, holo-buttons, toggles or icon-text-toggle rows.

Hybrid mode is the heart and soul of paranoidandroid. Forget tablet mode or build.prop changes! Hybrid mode will not break your phone, your apps, your market, nothing will shrink or become unusable. Entire parts of AOSP have been rewritten to make this possible, you will not get anything like it anywhere, this is the only rom on Android capable of these things.
Hybrid mode means you can control the size and the actual layout of any app individually. Keep in mind, apps bring their own layouts, they will display according to your device. That’s why apps like gmail, settings, youtube, camera, chrome, etc., transform completely when you run them on a tablet. This rom allows you to choose whatever layout you like best, we don’t fool around with DPI, we extract the actual layouts from your apk’s and you select them with a tap. Apply and you’re done. No reboot necessary. You can target anything: apps, system components, widgets, launchers, keyboards, statusbars, lockscreen, etc.
Finetune your workspace or apply hybrid settings to all your apps if you don’t like to set them up individually. Individual settings will still override this so you can still get the look you want.
For ease of use you can access hybrid properties in your recents view, this will allow you to quickly review changes. Basic things like recents, toggles, etc. have been made usable across all UI modes.

If you have an issue and you want to call our attention, here's what you do:
1. Try everything you can, find solutions for yourself. Wipe caches, revert all your settings you have made, factory reset if you have to or reflash the rom. Assume that the issue is on your side and try your best to isolate it.
2. Search this thread and Cyanogenmods aswell (its our base) for possible reoccurences of your issue and hopefully solutions that may have come up.
3. If you think the issue is important enough that we should cease our work and look into it, post your issue, BUT ...
... stay friendly, do not demand anything, do not threaten
... explain your issue as precise as you can, name the exact apps and conditions that cause trouble, help us to replicate the issue right away. If we can't there's no way we can fix it and your post will simply clutter the thread
... collect evidence, keep in mind this is a developer thread so even if you are not one, do us the favor and research how to record logcat. logcat is the single most important help you can give us to resolve your issue.

i just installed this, full wipe-cache, dalvik, system, data. I'm using simon's SuperSick kernel version 1.1(get better battery life with that one). I keep getting a force close on the camera when trying to open it. Also, the Hwa settings force closes on boot and when I try to open it. Aside from that issue, love speed and smoothness.
Thanks for your replys guys. I'll be working on 1ce's newest update soon which solves a lot more stuff. Not sure why the cam isn't working right, hopefully the next version works OK.
You can use a 3rd party camera app from Google play like camera ICS. It should solve problems till I update.
Sent from my One V using xda app-developers app
Looking forward to the update. i tried camera ICS and get the same force close. The other camera apps I've tried, Camera FX, Line Camera, Camera MX, all lock the home screen in landscape mode unless you uncheck autorotate. Hopefully you can fix the issue. Thanks for porting this to our device.
forgot to add, its hard for me to get things going on the weekends, my phone is mission critical all weekend. during the week, i dont need to field any calls, so im going to start the next port today and get it all tested out. hopefully it should be ready before mid week, please dont hold me to that though.
ill make sure the next port has all the camera issues solved, i was looking through 1ce's work over on the gsm side, and they dont seem to be having the issue (or nobody is talking about it lol) so it should be easy to fix.
thanks for being patient guys!
Thanks for the work, no rush. I know you devs donate your time and effort to bring the rest of us these ROMs.
I realize you have a life and will take the updates as they come.
Edit: You may want to check with rukin about the camera. I think he got both camera and video recording working on aokp for primoc.
thanks riggerman. i owe you a thanks, im out for the day. :good:
Ninja edit: new January 3rd build uploading now. Camera works for me, camcorder still fcs like every other jb build we have. Apps in the market can give you video recording. Hwa settings still fcs, ignore it or remove the apk from /system/app if you would like. Link will be in 2nd post again. Happy hacking!
edit 2: new build posted in 2nd post. THANKS TO 1ceb0x for this.
HWA Settings turned out to be a Kernel problem. You could remove that.
And why does Camera recording not work? Its works 100% for me?
Sent from my One V using Tapatalk 2
Please clue me in to what your doing to have working video recording lol I've been in wondering how to get that working since I started running jb. Every jb ROM for me has fcs when I press the record button. 3rd party apps seem to work but I have never been able to get the one in the ROM to record. If you can help me get it working solid I'll give you credits in the op.
I'll delete the hwa settings also, probably the next update for that.
Also I'm giving you an text thanks since I'm out of them for the day. :thumbup:

Hei dude,
For HWA settings you need to do this in init.rc:
Code:
and in init.rc, you need to create the folder /data/local/hwui.deny and set his owner to system user
For cam recorder - i have no clue. maybe some libs that you need to change? what does the logcat say?
awesome that you have this up an running! i am glad that now the cdma side will benefit from this rom by using your work.
Everything is working great so far except for PA Settings. I can set between Phone, Phablet and Tablet UI but when I go to change the default sizes everything remains the same and none of the sliders work. Play store and a bunch of apps are at HUGE display sizes.
When I port the ROMs over, I don't change the sensor files or anything. Just APNs and Telephony part in build.prop.
Changing the name from PrimoU to C causes you to have to replace even more files. The phone will have PrimoU file but looking for C files which aren't there, so you'll have to add those in as well.
So I leave my phone as PrimoU. Not a big deal

Ill have to mess around with stuff. There shouldn't be a difference between primou and primoc libs though, but I'll look at it more.

Hello mate,
Before rushing to download this rom (I know everyone does it, I'm not an exception either), take some time to read what I'm about to write down here.
Let me introduce you to my ROM, called simply: SHPONGLE.
Its a ROM like every other one, nothing too special about it, everyone knows the features, you have seen it in every rom that its out there for other phones. So if you expect this one to be something really special, something that will blow your mind away, stop, take a long, deep breathe and close this page. This is not a ROM that makes you pancakes, nor it will transform your device in something way more cooler than a Nexus, for example.
I've spent days and nights working on this new release and I know you were waiting anxiously for me to say "Build's up", I'm sorry I kept you, mate, waiting for such a long time but you know me (do you?). If even one single bug was introduced, the build was canceled. That's why it took so long. There are numerous things changed and added that, I hope I kept track of everything. There were numerous errors/crashes/incompatibilities to squash and I'm very proud of myself right now.
So, what is SHPONGLE and why did you changed the name?
When I first worked on Evervolv and fixed almost everything in one go, I thought that I've found a gold mine. To bring an AOSP rom to life, on a legacy device, its pretty much committing suicide. Not only there are 99% chances that the build will not get past Htc's logo screen, but there is 100% chance of not having things working in it ever (take for example camera, which is pretty much hacked because HTC does its job of not releasing camera drivers).
Evervolv's base helped us so much, I want to thank them for doing a great job on keeping legacy devices alive, but, it is time to let go.
Then I started to feel "home sick" of my last ROM for Hero (its a phone) and I thought: "Why shouldn't I work myself in turning this Evervolv ROM in something totally different, in the memory of my last ROM?". So that's how, there is no Evervolv anymore, nor it will be in the near future. This right here is SHPONGLE. Welcome, to One V, Shpongle!
At its core, this ROM still remains an Evervolv, but I have faith that the birth of his child, SHPONGLE, will rock on your device even if I will be gone.
Yeah, but what SHPONGLE means, anyway?
If any of you wants to know what it really is, I suggest you go and search on Youtube. If you are a little bit like myself, you'll love it!
I feel the need to repeat myself now, mate: This ROM has nothing special in it. It's just the result of my love, passion and a bit of myself inside. You'll feel the smoothness but you will also feel some strutting. Don't blame the ROM (well, you can blame it) but blame the HW. With 512 mb of ram, you can't expect too much of it frankly.
On with the ROM we go!

Sorry to say this but you will get a lot of UI freezes and force closings - I don't know the cause of it YET, but you guys can get me logcat of those - PLEASE - work with each other and provide only 1 LOGCAT of the same issue, not multiple logcats for one issue. I want you to work as a team because only then this rom will get where it should be, with your help!
I want:
logcat with GPS trying to lock into satelites (using google maps or something similar while you do a logcat);
logcat with the UI freezes;
I don't want:
logcat for camera;
GAPPS for 4.2: gapps20130301
Booting my pc and gonna do logcat for GPS. Anyone else wanna take UI? Else ill take that aswell.
Edit: rom download link doesnt work for me. Anyone please confirm.
Edit 2: nvm gotta copy link and than go to the site dont click on IT IT wont work.

Thank you as well. Take note that the status bar seems pretty laggy and unstable if you play with it. I managed to get SystemUI to restart itself while I was in the lockscreen and I wanted to slide down the status bar. I pressed and hold the statusbar for 5 seconds while in lockscreen and the UI just restarted itself.
Another issue:
When you receive a SMS and you are in the lockscreen, slide the statusbar down, and press the message. You will not be directed into the messaging app but instead you will see the lockscreen. When you will slide to go to home screen, the message saying that the sms app has stopped working will appear - This issue is easily fixed by forcing the status bar to not be accessible when in lockscreen - Need to search for the code to implement it. MINOR issue!
stupid internet being stupid, hurry up please rom is almost done but for gps i need gapps too which take a long ass time for some reason... goo.im seems to be a really slow host, everything i download from them takes a long ass time.

Lars, if you can, download phone tester from Play and test GPS and see if its locking.

Why didnt i think of that? thanks soham! that doesnt work, it says 0/0 sattelites (logcat attached as always) really weird since google maps knows my exact location which i assume it cant know with only the gsm network. well ill let 1ce look at it and find out whats causing that (hopefully) but now im really gonna make some food! hungry as hell :$
Also made a logcat for UI but dont know if i did it the right way actually, 1ce please tell me if the UI logcat is what you need it to be, if no ill try again
I'm pretty sure I did. But I'm off the pc for now. Started to get a worse headache again and don't wanna take any risks. I'll make another one if it isn't what you need. hit me up via pm if it isnt. Alright? By the way, share chicken wings!!!!!
been trying to get another logcat for you just to be sure, but cant get the ui to crash again -.-, like when you need it to crash it wont crash and ill bet you if i take it away from my pc it will crash all the time :')
Edit: still won't crash. I see that as a good thing but still it's not really good since I can't help you troubleshoot this way. I'm sorry man, been using the UI very intensively in the last few hours but it just won't crash. So that can mean two things, it's fixed or I'm just really lucky.

I thought, would be nice to talk separetly about the KitKat International B510 firmware. Also we can write reviews.
My FIRST impression about this KitKat update is mixed. I missing a lot of features, like Permission manager for push services?!
Video playing is really bad! Standalone and online also. If i open videos online, and rotate the screen, i only hear the sound but the screen flashing all the time. Also video image slides alot!
Sometimes the launcher freez, when scrolling to another page. At multi-tasking when i close app with gesture, (not clicking on "X") it closes not smoothly.
Permission manager is gone? A lot of apps needed that, to work properly. For example: Facebook Messenger Cheat heads blocked, so i cant use it because of that.
Others? Whats your imressions overall?

This is BETA, so it's undestandable to have some issues and missing apps. All apps will be there in the official release.
Is it worth upgrading from B507 to B510 ?

Yes. Give it a shot, it is much faster and all the new functions are running very smooth. The performance is much better.
Update this beta version through OTA (I attended to do beta tester).
No problem with standalone and online video, about launcher seems slightly less fluid, I recommend using a theme created for 2.3 EMUI version.
About the permission manager, I suppose it's changed the method of management with the app "phone management"
I love the new keyboard and the new lock screen !

Yes, im okey with changes, but if it's working well. In phone management you'll not finding any options to set up, permissions neither push options. So it's not a good "change".

I find instead the new implementation significantly easier to use than before, for example, the widget is really functional and also the new management once you understand how it works, I do not mind at all.
It is true, I have not found the settings about notifications, but the rest is "smarter" :highfive:
for me no problem with video playback ( i sugest hwreset)
and Permission manager is now phone manager... so nothing is missing at all ;p
it runs good as for day of usage ;p

Im curious about future updates. They said, at the end of july they will release the final version. doubt that we will have a newer beta. I hope everybody will gave a feedback to them. The wierd thing, is we have official beta for 2.3 but china didnt.

@BeyondTheHorizon (assuming your working for Huawei)
My impressions, after updating from B506 to B510. Note that since i have already used Emui2.3 beta (B014) and Emui 2.0 (official) i will not get into mentioning its improvements over Emui1.6.
- Magazine lockscreen is awesome. But i don't understand why magazine option is enabled only for a selected theme, while a few other theme have weather option on lockscreen, and why not instead have them all for all themes. (Also haven't figured out what the "link" option is within the magazine lockscreen menu).
- Overall there is lags and inconsistency in transition and animation speeds everywhere.
Examples:
> Pulling down notification panel has slower animation then when pulling it back up. While on the other hand there is also a jamming lag when notification panel goes back up.
>Random lags when moving about homscreen pages.
> lag in settings sections when entering each settings item.
- I personally dont like the splitting of drop down panel into two "notification" and "switches". The combined was much better. Even in the split form, there is design inconsistency, for example in the switch panel there is lot of free empty space on the bottom half and there is no point in having a slide down arrow to reveal just one row of switches. Furthermore it would have made sense to have the switches fill the bottom half, as it makes it easier for one hand usage. But i still prefer the the combined form which just two rows of switches and brightness option, while the rest hidden under the slide down.
- Thankfully the weather 4x2 widget is proper size, compared to the huge size on B506 and B014. But the transparent clock widget (first introduced on Honor 3c & 3x) is not yet available on this rom.
- The video player app is missing (and like others mentioned, the permission and startup apps manager, one hand option and navigation bar hiding option is missing too)
- I was hoping for changes in the "customize" section of the theme changer app. The old problem of swiping right/left a lot to get to the end of the lockscreen styles, or icons types, etc remains a burden.
- As someone said, its time to change the grey color of navigation bar. Either allow users to customize it, or have a number of colors that changes according to apps.
- In contacts "favorite" section, there is Chinese fonts.
- I don't think there is a need to have all the google apps pre-installed. Just a couple of them would be enough, while the rest can be downloaded from playstore.
- The water mark option in camera is nice. Cant find the "Cheeze" to take pics option. The photo editor is great and fun too. Video recorded on camera comes out dark. In case of taking selfie pics, once you hit the shoot button, the screen weirdly gets all yellow before taking the pic. Photos looks grainy too. But im no expert on camera, so i could be wrong.
- The Chinese rom had an app center app, and at times the latest version of the Huawei apps would be available on that. Such app updates are not available on this rom.
- The types of transition effects for homescreen keeps decreasing with every new rom update, when instead we should be getting newer ones added.
- The homescreen icons on this rom appear slightly bigger compared to them on the Chinese rom. Can be noticed when applying emui2.0 theme icons on this emui2.3 launcher.
Good and bad in B510
Good
- Magazine lockscreen is really good. I like it, hope more themes are like that.
- I like the splitting of drop down panel into two "notification" and "switches". But I hope they could have a setting to enable/disable it.
- Floating apps are awesome.
- Torch in notifications is very useful.
- Ultra power saving mode changes UI to dark black --> seems convincing that it will save battery life. Overall this rom has decent battery life.
- External SD settings
Bad
- Just hope that when I use other music players it can get the controls on the lock screen. Also, if there was a music slider to skip a few seconds of music was available on lockscreen that would be good.
- Hope that the default launcher could have a drawer. Having all the apps on the screen is messy.
- The radio widget still isn't transparent while the other huawei widgets are. It stands out and looks ugly.
- No permissions manager. It blocks facebook chatheads by default because it draws over other apps. No way to unblock it because permission settings are missing.
- The grey color of navigation bar is horrendous. Hopefully they notice this and they make it black or able to customize.
- Camera pictures look grainy.
- GPS still sucks. Don't know if it is a hardware issue.
- No ART mode
Other
- I don't know what to think about the carrier name. I feel like it's ok, don't hate it or like it.
The carrier name HAS to go! Why do they need to put it there anyway?
I agree with @warea about the notification panel that is better in Emui 2.0. Having it separate could work if you can change the settings of how you want it to be opened.
I find that the rom is a bit laggy most of the time, but for a beta I can live with it.

The carrier name it's something new for this update. And everything else it's really just a matter of opinion. The most important thing is that this ROM must run smooth and fast without any lag when it will be released as official/final. Everything else is just customization that can be added or removed by rooting and installing third party apps.
Also noticed, my phone is really hot, even for simple use. And the battery is really bad on this rom.

Well hello Lads and Gents,
I've been using the PACman ROM, which unfortunately hasn't been updated for a year, for a long time and I was amazed by the variety of functions available in this All-in-One ROM! But a weird bug in the ParanoidAndroid options (will talk about it later) annoyed me, so Mustaavalkosta's CM11 release got my attention.
I have to say that KitKat is pretty cool! But for some odd reason, my Google Calendar isn't syncing at all, the extended desktop feature doesn't change a thing, Trebuchet went full retard so I had to delete and replace it with a version designed for non-rooted phones, random freezes, etc. (will add more when I find more)
Nevertheless CM11 features nice data protection options and other little things that I didn't have in the PACman ROM (as it's JellyBean), while PACman ROM had nice features I don't have in CM11...
So my core question is: Is there a way to install AOKP and PA features in CM11? I really loved Pie and the notification bar customization (PA) was really cool too, even though it didn't work for me. I'd appreciate any hints on how to add new features (from other ROMs) on my phone without f*cking it up.
Also, is over the air updating possible for the nightlies?
And about that weird ParanoidAndroid notification bar customization bug: The problem was that the scaling of the settings were wrong. To be able to access the field where the color is set, I had to turn my phone to landscape mode. But when I did that the color palette which opened had its save button outside of the screen, no way to scroll. If I turned it back into portrait mode, the dialogue simply disappeared! I tried everything to fix it but I had no chance. So I've been unable to change any of the notification bar settings for ANY app.
Thanks in advance!

You could either build your own ROM with the features you want, or find replacement apps. There's not really a drag-and-drop method for adding new features.

So that means I have to learn ROM coding? Oh lord... I thought there might be an easier way to bypass just this solution.
