Has anyone gotten this working yet on the OUYA, and if so what games/ROMS? So far everything I have tried comes back with the error "The selected game is missing one or more required ROM or CHD images." Not sure if I am putting the ROMS in wrong area, wrong roms version, or what.
Works great.
You need to use 0.139 dats on your ROM sets. Then run the program once. Let it make the default dirs, then navigate to the roms dir under the root of the program location. Place files here. Then re-run, you can use custom dirs, but try this first until you have success.
Definitely not the place for this, but I wish the author would make a port of MAME 0.72. He did 0.139 and 37b5, but 0.72 was the fastest and most accurate version for Mortal Kombat games...
I am using .139 roms as far as I know. (Unless OldComputers has them all missmarked). Is there a way to verify the version of the rom?

I think clrmamepro can go through and verify/fix your ROMs or tell you what you need to do if they are incorrect. I haven't used it in ages though.

If you add the .dz file into this kitchen, it will produce a ROM that will enable the S-Class UI.
There are 3 batch files to run:
prep
mix
bake
and then you'll have a FLASH2.bin ready for burninantion.
-Brian
so wait. what does this do?
... what it does
It enables UI that LG has on a few other phones (KM900, GM730). It gives you an option if you don't like the stock WinMo6 'Today' screen.
Like in the attached pictures..
Our phone came with the S-Class UI. Make one that will give us Sense 2.5
lol forget all that make us a rom with the newest 6.5.3!
does your newly created flash2.bin flash to the phone correctly? does everything work? if so talk to dark and spocky. they havent been able to flash a rom that is functional on the phone yet. great work btw. but i kinda agree with the others (and i never liked the S class) having something new and different would be sweet, however correcting the flash process to make sure its gonna work every time is a must. keep up the good work...
um so i used the kitchen to make the flash2.bin then i used dz create then i flashed it and its same as stock?
at least it worked i guess
When building an androidinstall.tar from scratch, do I need to include the META-INF file as well?
I will try without it as this build was for a different phone that I extracted and decompressed. I have already separated the apps and placed them in their own /data folder and removed them from the /system folder.
It is an unodexed build so no .odex files were included.
I was looking through other builds I have on hand and noticed no META-INF file, thats the reason for asking.
First error:
[ 127.061609] init: Unable to open persistent property directory /data/property errno: 2
Then a whole mess of kernel errors, possibly due to wrong system...
FIXED! Awaiting boot animation to finish.
Honeycomb boot animation is SO cool looking!
EDIT: NOT fixed, refuses to finish booting. Will work on it more to see if I can get it to boot up.
So far I've gotten to the point where the D-pad and keyboard light but boot animation continues.
Build is Android 3.0 Honeycomb with parts and drivers taken from "system_gingerbread_unodex" listed on sourceforge.
Someone tell me what I've missed here as it's about 80% finished booting and hangs after D-pad lights, animation continues until I pull the battery, about 10 minutes.
Getting an error "cannot execue /system/bin/leds.sh, no such file or directory", even though I made sure to copy it and went back and checked it.
Sorry if this looks like I'm using the forum as a sounding board, but I found an experimental build of Honeycomb for the MSM7201A and wanted to try it out.
Watch me cook the only Kaiser I have left...
All but giving up for now, will dig deeper. I know HC was NEVER meant to run on our Kaisers but it would be fun to see it happen.
Wow you are insane! (I mean that in a good way)
I have a Xoom tablet that runs honeycomb, but can't even imagine it running on our sweet Kaiser. Heck, I don't even like gingerbread: uses too much RAM.
Keep us posted, it sounds like a wonderful experiment.
I'm so close yet so far with it because I'm using more and more of Gingerbread in the build. I even ended up trying to change the build.prop file to accomidate some of the changes in dimensions and clock speeds...
I think I'm about 90% there, just have some issues with the bootanimation restarting, which I may change to the nexus for the smaller size. (HC boot animation is somewhere around 14mb compared to our partly 875kb nexus animation). That could be half the problem because the bootanim uses so much of the ram...
To be continued...
Ok This is a very interesting project
I am from the vogue forum but since my touch broke and the build process is identical I just sort of wander around trying to help with what I know.
So at one time I did a lot of porting and it appears according to your first post this is what you did. What phone did you take the rom from?
If its from the wildfire (I know there was a honeycomb movement in there for a while) I can definitely help because that is where I did most of my porting from
And the META-INF question... When I port I usually trash a bunch of folder straight away ... including META-INF
Good to know there are "floaters" around helping as needed.
BTW, it IS from the Wildfire port. Considering the MSM family is bascally the same, I'm trying to use that as a starting point.
The META-INF file contains certificates and what-not but isn't needed for our phones.
My biggest issue right now, as with any Gingerbread release, is finding drivers for our devices. Froyo drivers won't work because they lack the correct signature. Same as if someone tries to install the HTC flip clock on a plain android without the sense build, it just doesn't work.
I have this project and trying to port the kernel we use to the Raphael (Touch pro/Fuze), which is a major task in and of itself. I tried HaRet before with the Kaiser and I jus HATE it.
Biggest issue with the Fuze right now is to get it CID unlocked so I can try installing the kernel to NAND and go from there.
With that being said, I don't know what kind of progress I'll be making with HC in the near future, if any.
Ok, I went back and restarted the project from scratch. Someone else ported the bootanimtion and different aspects of HC to a Froyo port on the Xperia X1 forum.
I recompiled everything at first, moving the "app" folder inside a new folder named "data", since our NAND constraints limit the build size to under 102mb for /system.
Once again I am stuck at the boot animation. It will go full-speed for a minute then restart and run slow. The only parts taken from the X1 were the app folder and media/bootanimation.zip
I'll dig a little deeper, maybe ask around the X1 forum for help.
Would be nice to finally figure this out though.
Hi PoXFreak. It seems like you're a very good dev. Could i help you somehow or could you link me to somewhere where i could get all the tools for rom and kernel building. Im a C++ learner, i've written a few apps, but only big thing i've done in android is installed sdk and modified a rom to have apps i need after install. I'd rly like to improve our kaisers.
P.S. dou you put anynthing compilled by urself in android rom (without kernel)? And where are the drivers located? system/lib/modules/[kernelversion]/ or system/lib/modules/ ???

The .so files go into /system/lib/modules/(kernelversion).
Sent from my Android on HTC Kaiser using XDA App
I have yet to make a complete working build from my work so no, I have nothing "new" to contribute to any android builds. All I'm doing is combining and rearranging/replacing/removing files already in builds.
To date, I have not had the time to work on this. I would like to be able to devote more time but I have too much on my plate already. Not to say I'm dropping the ball, just putting it on the rack for awhile.
Hey guys,
I'm a noob here on XDA , and to the whole Smartphone scene, I decided Id buy a WFS a few weeks ago and figured i'd root it and install JellyBean .
But only a few days ago I found out that you could only install Roms with the stock kernel?
So , basically i'm disappointed because I took it for granted id be able to install Jellybean just because I saw videos of it on You Tube and saw Roms etc.
But I saw a thread on another forum site, some guy mentioned something about using Notepad++ and opening up the "Updater_Script" File in the Rom you want to install and delete the first line of text (claiming its something got to do with verifying the devices model) , apparently it worked for him with a "Black screen recovery" model, with a CM9 Alpha 7 + 8. I tried it with CM10 JellyKing, and it didn't give me any luck, :/
So anyway I just wanted to throw all that out there because its all I know on the issue, and if anyone knows anything else or any Rom fixes or any other options I have to get a smoother lighter Rom Id be glad to hear it, or if they know of any Devs working on it.
I'd really appreciate any info given as i'm finding it very hard to get any information at all, I've been searching for a long, long time and it seems us people with the new model WFS are being neglected :/.
WFS 2912 roms
Try these:
http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=239982&st=1560#entry17839874
or this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37201495&postcount=54
They all work on WFS 2012, but by me, on all of them, after I download something from the market and the application starts installing on the phone my WFS reboots and is like this every time it tries to install something. If you try any of these roms please share if you have the same problem. Thanks.
NOTE: Do not install custom kernels, except this one, which is not exactly a custom one but a stock just with the ability for CPU overclock:

Is this some sort of tweaked Jellyking Rom to work on the 2012 WFS?
Is there a need to install that kernel?
I did this http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2337634 and didn´t work, then i did another and it kinda worked (i saw the superman icon on the tablet), but now i cant install the es file explorer or any ****, dont know what to do
I want to have the full android os
------But the question is, what is the best "build" for this tablet to be the fastest as it can be?And how can i follow a step by step guide on it.install a phone os instead of a tablet? install andoid?
Now I have a worthless tablet(only good for browsing) because i even dont have credit card info i cant download any free app or see videos or even write a document.
:angel: make me feell like in free heaven again!

Hashcode seems to have done a lot of the work for us all and has produced the Kernel that all the roms use. I have tried the CM10.1, CM10.2 and the PAC rom and although none are perfect, they are all usable as a daily ROM. I would say that the PAC rom seems the fastest to me, but as soon as you have TWRP installed it doesn't take long to install all of them at try them out. I have backups of all the 3 above so I can switch if I want.
On any of them it is worth installing "Ultimate Rotation Control" to force the orientation to what you prefer. Otherwise the rotation seems to break for some apps.
Good Luck.
Thanks to the devs for the great selection of ROMs. Except for this wifi annoyance I am really happy with the PSX Kit Kat ROM.
Never saw this with any 4.2 or 4.3 ROMs. I'd like to fix it, partly to gain lesser noobiness.
This link seems to describe what's going on:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32222083&postcount=8
Does anyone know if this fix works on our phone? The directory structure is different and I don't have a 'param' file or folder in the /dev/block/platform/.../by-name folder. Not sure what to do next

Found an easier solution- Mac Spoofer works like a charm and remembers settings if you do have to re-run it. Two or three other apps like it didn't seem to work with this ROM.
