I'm sorry, I can't really help you any further. My Machine doesn't have space to use Virtual Box, I was just trying to point you in the direction of what looked like the most useful website.

Contact sync problem...

Hi everybody.... It's my first post here....
My cousin owns HTC wildfire buzz... There are some hurdles that I cannot happen to cross for him..
His device is untouched.. Means No rooting, no modding., no custom ROM....
1. Arabic language is partially supported... it displays the characters of Arabic but letters are disconnected...
2. Battery life is very weak. It can not last even for a day...
3. Battery icon with/in percentage.
4. Torch widget stops working every often.
5. Cannot sync contacts from Facebook....
Anyone here can help me to help to help him...
Thanks in advance

1) no idea
2) for better battery, rooting is the best option and installing a custom rom. It would increase speed too.
3) i think it can oot be changed
With a custom rom, u can have a different battery icon.
4) interesting, try any app like flashlight from play store.
5) there are few specific apps for that. U can get via play store

Actually I dont want to play around with his device... because MOdding and installing custom roms caused my SAMSUNG Galaxy Ace to lose BOOTLOADER.
Aren't there any user-friendly methods that can be applied to obtained the stated!
Honestly i dont remember much coz i just spent 5 days with stock rom. After 5 days, i rooted my phone

Three app not working on miui, or any rom

I know it's no biggie, but has anyone else had this?
Whenever I try and go on my account It just says sorry we're having problems downloading this information
It's pretty much the one thing that's stopping my newly flashed Eva.MIUI rom being perfect and its really bugging me

So it's been over 2 years.....

So it's been over two years that I've been part of this great community but I have never tried to make a ROM for any phone. So today I decided to make a ROM for this phone, but I don't know where to start from. I have a windows 8 pc so I don't even know if that's a good system to make ROMs but I want to give it a try. I also want to theme it a certain way that I think everyone would enjoy so if anyone is willing to give me a little bit of their time to guide me into building a ROM, I would gladly appreciate it. Thank you

You need the rom kitchen and it isn't something you'll just make in a day

yea i know that but i just need to know what exactly do i need
Start by theming a few apps or the like . There are endless possibilities with systemui too . The problem with using kitchen,vts etc is that you wouldn't really know whats happening behind the scenes so i'd recommend learning to do stuff manually first . the win8 system shouldn't be a problem unless until you set out to build kernels or aftermarket roms like c from source
