[DEV] Multiboot working on BRAVO - Bravo Android Development

Well, I wanted to try this, I saw it in DEFY forums and as always I thought this could work for BRAVO too.
I tried and everything is working fine.
Im using now CM7 and ICS CM9 Quarx version with froyo kernel
I'll try later with GINGERBLUR!

I tried also with good results! CM7 + CM9 is a good combo - allows us to have camera working as well as the latest and greatest AOSP. It's amazing how similar the two devices are.
The trick is to correctly allocate the sizes of the 3 ext-3 fsimages based on personal use. 300 mb was way too small for me
This mod definitely has lots of quirks though...if you don't know what you're doing, it might not work.
After downloading files, I would suggest looking at this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21401063&postcount=249

So u have a working camera on Cm9 ::

no.
cm7 w/ camera is on 2ndint
cm9 w/o camera is on 2ndboot
if i want camera, i can simply boot into 2ndint. so then i don't have to keep reflashing cm7 if i want a working camera! it's very convenient

Oh I was very confused

Do you mean u boot into CM7 for working camera and boot into CM9 for other time & this is very convenient due to multi boot manager????.OR have u found any means by which u get working camera on CM9???

I have a library replacement hack to get photo camera working, should be in the next thead down. I'd use the libraries from the latest nightly released earlier today, they're probably better since they were updated since last release.

please can you provide with detail step by step guide of how to do this.The link you provided as steps is quite confusing.I have full working quarx CM7 nightly edition of bravo as base ROM.I don't even see you tube video for this guide.It would be great aid to bravo users if you could possibly upload video on this at you tube.

If you are running alredy CM7 it will be very easy for you.
You can try Multiboot manager instead of doing it manually:

Probably naive...
I'm just getting back into the fun, and it's nice to see how things have progressed...wow.
Will multi-boot CM7/CM9 share app data?
EDIT: And I don't see the Play app in CM9?

You should access to your account in the rom so that everything updates itself.

Please try it again.
I tried three roms at a time and worked fine for me.
CM7, CM9 and MIUI.
I will try this rom to see if there is a problem with me.

WR and Pikachu were originally made to be used with 2nd-boot, but that never worked with the Bravo. I've never tried them on multiboot. I don't normally use multi boot due to too much music on my sdcard. That, and I had problems with roms with bugs/glitches they didn't have when installed to the system.
Honestly, WR is buggy as hell. I'd release an update, but I can't get some of the tweaks to work right and there's no radio after installing the updated one. If you want an updated WR, the closest thing is my current nandroid...The only problem is its touch recovery and I've never once tried multi boot with touch recovery.
I suppose I could remove touch recovery up my nandroid later today. It has working Bravia(yes I tested before and after and I made a difference), updated beats audio, 30 step volume, cyanbread framework themeing, brews coffee, the miui explorer from Defy forum, custom framework animations, transparent status bar/notification drawer, walks your dog, and zepplinrox's scripts already ran and set up. It has everything WR had except Go Launcher and Miui apps.
Autocorrect is pissing me off. Miui was Louis, Mohican, and Minuit. And my thumb is sore now.

Thanks, got Gapps working! Now I can't seem to figure out root?

A little late, but superuser was broken on ICS multiboot. Its fixed on the 0417 release.
Has anyone else been having problems installing multiboot when CM9 is the primary nand rom? It installs, boots to 2nd-system, but nothing works except boot from nand. Selecting anything other than boot from nand gives me the multiboot error screen and I have to reboot. The same zip works perfectly fine with CM7.

A system installed on the sdcard tends to use a bit more battery in my experience. That and the lost gigabyte of sd storage are the only disadvantages of using multiboot.
I will add that some roms have glitches when installed to the sdcard they normally wouldn't have as a nand install. Its a hit or miss when dealing with multiboot sd roms and glitches.

[Theme] NexTheme Port fastludeh22's OTA de-odex'd stock rom

This is a port of one of the best theme ever made for android devices called NexTheme by manup456, all credit goes to him! I wanted to run this theme on fastludeh22's OTA de-odex'd stock rom found HERE which is what I'm running. This is a full rom flash as there isn't a template for this rom out yet. A wipe shouldn't be required if coming from the same rom, for all others I recommend a full wipe and as usual if something goes wrong I didn't force you to flash it.
Download rom/theme
Download kernel from link above
Put both on sdcard
Boot into recovery
Do a backup
Flash Rom/Theme
Flash Kernel
Reboot and enjoy!
IF YOU AREN'T RUNNING OTA DE-ODEX'D VERSION DO NOT FLASH!!!!!!
DOWNLOAD
Nice to see that wonderful yet simple rom get more support. At least until the kinks are worked out of CM Will try it out later today... Thanks!
I got really excited til I seen it wasn't for cm..lol ....thanks for the port of this tho seriously the best theme ever
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
Yeah i got excited myself till i realized it wasn't compatible with CM =\
Sheesh! Come on guys.... we have a theme or two for CM. We really needed one for stock ota. When CM gets out of RC... expect much more stuff for it and then stock will become less and less used. Stability is nice to have.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHH This is the one I've been waiting for. THANKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!
Gahhhhh! Been trying for like 30 minutes and I can't get the darned 4 letter captcha. It won't come up. Anyone else having this problem from the phone?

I will try my best to release it for cm as well I just prefer running a stock rom and customizing it myself that's why I did the stock rom first. Will try and get it out asap.
One thing is missing though... the intergraded froyo tethering.
wifi doesn't work either...

Works just fine, I just flashed. You have to pick a kernel and flash that over the ROM. I used CM bacon bits.

Do you mean flashing bacon bits after the theme is installed? Wifi not working for me either. Was working when I first ran the stock de-odex'd rom but stopped after I installed the theme.

Just reflash your previous kernel. Most of them contain correct .ko files to get wifi going again.
Didn't know had to reflash kernal. Working great now. Thanks.

Updated first post with flashing instructions, sorry should have been more clear about flashing everything.
Reflashed bacon bits and wifi now works..Thanks..But now the tethering is gone. Any chance that could be fixed in the future? I do use it every now and then

Yeah, native tethering seems to disappear on every OTA stock theme I have used or made. not sure why or how it happens. I haven't figured it out but the problem is in the services.jar. Just download wifi tether and wired tether which work perfectly until a fix is found...
Loving this theme, thanks for the work porting it over. It's running fantastic. One request however, if you ever update it, when scrolling through my contacts by letter (dragging the bar on the right) the popup that is supposed to show the letter, is black on black. Let me know if you don't know what I mean, I'll try to explain it more clearly.

Never tried MIUI. I'll try it now, then. Been lovin' CM7 on my Atrix, and before my Atrix had it been lovin' on the Bravo.
Time to see what all the hype is about, I guess.

Nice Btw, I really like it. It's really different, and I really don't mind the iPhone elements that are added, looks kind of nice. And woah, unlimited lockscreens...
Also thanks for all of your work. You're like the only pro dev on this phone right now. Bandroidx was pro as well, but he kinda left. Anyways please keep it up, you're pretty much the only one holding everyone with this phone up, and you're doing a great job.
He's not so much a pro as he is willing to do the research and is quickly becoming a pro. All we needed as a community was someone like him... willing to dedicate some time in doing the work I just wish I knew where to look myself. Keep up the good work!

Nice, can't wait. Maybe this will fix the issue I'm getting, data connection randomly stops working and you have to restart the phone?
great work!
there's still some chinese text, though! :>
I am having huge upload errors with the file... if you want miui just download it from the defy section of miui main site (not miui us) then download defy English pack. Copy system files from English pack and pit them on miui zip. Then copy over my entire Meta folder... delete boot devtree logo... use sbf fix in first post if you have bootloader error. Then you don't have to wait for my update anymore.. I already did the harder stuff with editing updater zip and making fixed sbf.. if anyone makes one and wants to put up download link.. I will add to first post

Where is your "Meta" folder? Where are the files that hold the order of the capacitive buttons? Where are the files that will make it to where the Defy MIUI will work with the Bravo MIUI?
is there a way, on miui, to turn off icon labels on homescreens? they're kind of obnoxious and i'd love to get rid of them!
Easiest way is download miui for defy.. wipe data cache
Update in recovery.. then you will get bootloader error...
Now flash my rdannarfix.sbf with rsdlite in first post and it will fix the
Bootloader error. The sbf flashes are kernel and devtree and some other core files to get it to work. I used the sbf splitter and took out some files then repackaged it.
If you run into problems just post them and i will help you.
My plan is to let people know how to do it so someone can take over the rom development. I only have this phone until October then I'm getting an atrix. So i plan on porting as many roms as i can to help out bravo community. Anyone can use my roms to build there own and post them. Just give the proper credits to the people i ported from
Reboot and miui will boot up.
You will have service but not 3g. You need to replace files in system/etc/motorola/bvpn
Jorgon posted the signal fix files in his thread.
Then you are done.

Backing up my old system and gonna give it a shot. Will report everything I encounter.
EDIT: It doesn't work. I'm using MAGLDR 1.13 and CWM 5.0.2.6. I flashed your zip. It won't boot. It won't find the boot partition.

Thanks for the tip. After flashing the new partition layout it works now.
flashing this now
just realised it has the cm9 boot animation i wonder if they make a cool new one?
ha just noticed when you tap multiple times on cm10 in about phone setting it show the cm10 version of the jelly bean animation with android heads
so far.
data works
i dont think google now is implemented (doesnt show up on the lock screen or the search bar)
couldnt get the pinch notification to work so that might not be in yet either
thats all i found
well it was fun
Alright here the things that I've found:
Data is not working (at least rmnet, don't know about ppp). The H icon is showing
up, but I can't make a connection.
I couldn't test GPS because I have no app to test this. ADB is somehow not working, so I can't install apps this way.
As expected Wifi and camera is not working.
BT, USB is working.
Is there a problem with HWA on Jelly Bean? It's quite slow.
But it's nonetheless a good start for CM10 on this device. Looking forward to future builds.

[JB][ICS] CRON-o-GENMOD9 / CronMod CM10: General Thread

General thread for the JB CM10/AOSP based rom by cronmod dev team here and the ICS CM9 based rom here.
Check the respective rom sites for a what's working/not working list, features and download links. Discuss general things about the rom here such as a2sd scripts and any issues
As requested by the dev for the ICS rom:
What's NOT working?
Code:
[LIST]
[*]Camera force closes while recording video
[*]Hardware decoding for video playback -> laggy playback of 720p (use software decoding in Mx Player instead).
[*]Home/Search key (use the fix over [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34075493&postcount=131"]here[/URL])
[/LIST]
Anything that isn't said there is working fine. Will update the list if others find anything that doesn't work. Before asking for help do check you have the right hboot and that the md5 is correct after you download the rom. Also make sure you perform a full wipe when migrating to these roms.
Bear in mind that ICS was not made for our devices. Do not expect the stability of GB but the devs have done a great job on this and it is quite stable and quick for daily use.
Installation for CM9 ICS rom:
Code:
[U]Full wipe recommended before each flash from new version and is NEEDED if coming from any other rom.[/U]
Partition SD card so you have less than 1.5gb in sd-ext partition and the rest as FAT32. Gparted is recommended.
Flash the rom from recovery.
Grab m2sd from [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342387"]here[/URL] (credit to dk_zero-cool) and flash it from recovery using whatever options you want (recommended by to choose apps and dalvik).
Wipe cache/dalvik and reboot :)
You can use cron's INT2EXT scripts as well from here and just flash in place of m2sd.
Feel free to ask any questions here but keep the dev threads on topic.
Anyone using the JB rom if you could post a not working list from your tests that'd be great .
Since corey moved on to JB the cron r2 hboot isn't available on the website anymore. The current version of the ICS cronmod rom still fits on to the 183mb system hboot so I thought to put this up here for those that want a bit more space in data
WARNING: The size of the system partition may increase in future so the hboot might not be compatible with future versions of cronmod cm9.
Check md5 before flashing and flash through fastboot using "fastboot flash hboot filepathAndName.img"

Its quite usable as a daily rom. At least I use it daily. But don't expect the level of stability like gingerbread. I mean, The kernel is still under improvement. Best way is to use it for a few days and judge yourself.

Hello,
I flashed this ICS rom just before Yasir took over and I must say I'm happy with it.
It is a bit slower than my previous CM7 rom of course but nothing dramatic, and it somehow seems more stable for some reason (GPS works, for example!).
And I still get a quite big amount of space on data thanks to the cron r2 hboot, which is great!
And I also love the CM9 tweaks.
So overall a good surprise for my first jump from CM7 roms.
But I tested Chrome and discovered it is so laggy it is unusable. Do you guys have the same issue?

Chrome isn't made for our devices. Not the best browser for us but it's great on other phones

The rom itself is amazingly quick and stable. Considering it's ICS I'd say it's the best ICS rom out right now. Haven't tried CronMod JB though.

That's a shame.
I have another question: what 3rd party app could I use for video recording?
I tried UCam and it didn't work...

I don't need video recording myself so I wouldn't know. But any camera app should work. I've heard good things about ICS Camera on market. Very close to stock camera app as well.
I'm going to be linking my friend this ROM soon-ish (once beta comes out) and she's using a BravoC on Ntelos. What kind of prep would she need to do on the phone before flashing the ROM? Like a wipe script or something to repartition or what? Want it to go as smooth as possible.

just wipe and install as listed in OP but be sure to have a ext partition if you plan to use a script

I tried it and sadly it crashes like the stock app.
Anyone knows of a working camera app that can record video with a working preview?

Using scripts is kind of new to me. I've always had devices with a lot of storage for apps. What would you recommend?

I suggest you to use INT2EXT+ with this ROM, take a look HERE.
I noticed that when i install a new app (from the market or an .apk), the system hangs for a while, sometimes it even pop with a system error, but if i select to wait the system then starts to work again, i have installed INT2EXT+ script with a 512 sd-ext partition on a Class 4 8 GB SD card. Could the low SD class can cause this problem? SD read cache is correctly set at 2 MB.
Could you amswer me whats working and whats not working in your cm9 rom? Cant find it

SUCCESS! Nyandroid boot is going!
Replace the file in the zip with the one from the link
For slightly more clear instructions, open the .zip with your decompression software of choice.
Go to 'system\lib\'
Replace libposteffect.so with

Now flash, and watch rainbows through space

okay I will.
meanwhile I installed the normal mimicry and not the ported one (mimicry vivow) and that one is working.
I think we do not need to fix ma problem anymore, as it might take too much time just for this.
case closed with the result ROM Port Andromadus Mimicry 1.5.0 (mimicry vivow) is not working anymore.
An OP might inform the creator to either fix or mark that ROM as broken?
