[ROM] zerorom v0.4 (GSM/CDMA, CWM Install) - Xperia Play Android Development

Hi everyone... here's my first crack at a custom ROM for the Xperia Play. And this is very beta. Once things get more solid, I'll make this first post a lot more proper. As it stands, this is for people who aren't worried about being on the edge.

CIFS/TUN kernel modules (untested)
Tons of SE default apps removed, including Whatsapp, Music Unlimited, Adobe Flash Player (market is far more up-to-date) and so much more.
Facebook deep integration removed, use FrAsErTaG's Facebook patch if you want it back - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1140540
SuperCharger memory management and loopy smoothness tweaks
/data partition has lots of space free.
Data, SMS, MMS, Wifi, Home button, back button, Google Voice Navigation all working.
Installation instructions:
I've been trying to get a proper flashable update.zip which would include the DoomKernel, however I have been getting bootloops, so for now, installing consists of restoring a Nandroid backup. This, of course, requires a kernel with CWM recovery, so you must already have DoomKernel installed at the moment.
These instructions will get much more properly fleshed out later on.
Quick and dirty steps:
1) Enter Recovery menu with preflashed DoomKernel.
2) Wipe all userdata
3) Wipe all caches
4) Wipe Dalvik Cache
5) Install the zerorom zip from your SD card.
At this point, reboot and you should be booting into the ROM. There's a good chance you'll see the boot logo two or three times before it boots properly. This is normal and no reason to be alarmed. This is basically the dalvik2cache and zipalign scripts running.
CDMA Users:
Install with the same build as below. Follow the same instructions. As long as you have not wiped /system when you attempt to install zerorom, it will detect that you are running on CDMA. It checks this by going by what your /system/build.prop says. If that file does not exist, installation could fail.
Installation failure when /system is wiped before install:
If you are missing /system/build.prop, you could write the following into a text file: "ro.product.device = R800x" for CDMA users or "ro.product.device = R800i" for GSM users. Then push this file to /system/build.prop. Then restart installation and you should be good.
Download:
V0.4 - http://www.multiupload.com/HUAY7FTIS7 - CDMA is in testing phase only!
V0.3 - http://www.multiupload.com/J3F7MPHJQZ
V0.2 - http://www.multiupload.com/3W86RKRKOM
V0.1 - http://www.multiupload.com/6H8EE0FMKY
Got a lot of plans in the future for this ROM. Let me know what you think if you take the time to try it out.

Changelog/Roadmap:
v0.5 - Update zips for each version from now on, startup script control, nano/bash included.
v0.4 - CDMA and GSM support in a single installation, hacked Google Maps 5.10.0 with worldwide navigation, loopy smoothness tweaks and V6 SuperCharger memory management scripts on startup. PNG optimized.
v0.3 - Restarted from scratch. Added Google Talk with video. Added new theme. Switched to Launcher Pro from ADW Launcher. Removed more apps. Added new bootanimation. Turned off auto-brightness settings. Turned off most camera sounds. SQLite vacuum on boot. Yet more stuff.
V0.2.1 - Readd Sony Ericsson settings application to fix Messaging app force close when attemping to enter its settings.
V0.2 - Removed Facebook, Sony Ericsson custom Facebook integration, Sony Ericsson sync clients, Sony Ericsson LiveView manager. Added romname/version to build.prop so it is displayed to the user.

Very good work,great Rom

I will try this tomorrow and report back.
Glad to see someone else making ROMs for this phone. Great work

You should recruit Chevy to work on a CDMA version of your rom. He's becoming known for that.
Anyways, good luck.

I've been trying to get a proper flashable update.zip which would include the DoomKernel,

Don't go that way: in Sony's Xperia line for this year, kernels are not flasheable through recovery, because the recovery must be contained in the kernel. Thus, kernels must be flashed with fastboot, separate from the rest.

!
This looks good! its like all in one mod
I have most of the features though xD

Half the world uses that crap, so I can't blame him. I bet people would ***** if it was taken out.
Or did you mean something else?

Is there any source for this info?
As for Facebook, I'm looking deeper into how tied it is to the other apps. It's definitely something that will probably disappear soon.

I'm fully open to a CDMA version being available if someone wants to take up support for it as I don't have a CDMA Play myself.

id attempt it but i wouldnt know where to start but i can test i got a spare cdma play with an unlocked bootlader

If that helps you some, in my old system image GP2Xperia I made Facebook in its wholeness disappear from the phone. It's just a couple of apk's, nothing to be worried about. However, you may want to prepare a Facebook-adding update.zip just in case.

I removed it completely as a test (along with SE Syncing tools and their custom FB stuff) and found that simply installing FB from the market brings back most of what you'd get anyways, so it'll be removed from the next version. Liveware Manager will also be removed since it can just be installed from the market.

i said thank you (though not in those 2 words), gave the dev a thumbs up, and am currently running the rom to test it out and feed back to the dev any issues (if any) there may be in this package. i was just merely pointing out that in my eyes, fb is bloat and (to me) not as clean as i'd hoped.
so far it is a good rom, funcional, and a very good start for the devs first play attempt in a very limited custom rom world (for the play, at the moment), and i greatly look forward to future releases

v0.2 is in the middle of uploading. Sorry, no update.zip to update to the new version yet. I'll start creating those soon.
SE Sync, SE Facebook, Facebook, LiveWare all removed. Added rom name/version to build.prop.
EDIT: Done uploading, link: http://www.multiupload.com/3W86RKRKOM

My facebook patch will work fine

This is awesome. been using it all morning and love it.
Keep up the good work

READ ALL OF THIS POST AND THE ONE AFTER IT!
No, really, read it all. There's important information in here, honest!
Edit: Desire to Nexus One port status update - read
What is it?
As you all know, HTC have announced the 'HTC Desire', which is effectively HTC's version of the Nexus One. It shares a lot of the same hardware, but features cool stuff like HTC Sense and other cool apps (such as a camera app with face recognition, touch focus etc. etc.). The product is due to launch soon, which means ROMs have started to leak. This Alpha release is one such leak.
Alpha? That sounds scary?
Yeah, this isn't even Beta. There's a good chance you won't want to use this as your main ROM, but you might like to check out what's coming down the road.
So what works?
Almost everything - it's quicker to talk about what doesn't work. Aside from the FM radio, there appear to be no hardware incompatibilities that will cause a problem between the two devices. Even the noise cancelling microphone is functional in this ROM. The only problems with the ROM are related to the fact that HTC are yet to release the Desire kernel source, and there's a lot of changes in there. For the latest known issues status, please see the post below.
Tell me about partitions!
The Desire has a different partition layout to the Nexus One, which means some stuff had to be moved from /system to /data. No biggie, and with each Alpha release i'm optimising further to improve the situation. Be aware that this means you must wipe BEFORE installing the ROM and NOT AFTER, or it won't boot. A wipe is strongly recommended before trying this ROM - and remember to nandroid backup first!
What else are you working on for the ROM?
I have deliberately left this ROM un-odex'd, as I know other ROM developers will like to have a play with it (remember to credit your source guys!). Going forward, odex'ing the ROM makes a lot of sense to save space, although it's less of an issue now I have moved the dalvik-cache to the cache partition (as in cyanogen's ROM).
What kernel are you using? Any other tweaks worth knowing about?
The ROM has the usual MCR tweaks (tun.ko, openvpn, busybox, dropbear etc.) and is running a custom kernel by teknologist and myself based on the stock .33 source (check the changelog below for more details). Himem is enabled. The kernel runs at standard clock speeds, uniquely only using undervolt at the lowest clock speeds.
This is great - how can we say thanks?
Details on how to support my work should you wish to do so (any contributions are gratefully received) are available on the download page.
Alright, i've read enough, gimme the downloads!
One download, update zip format, apply via Amon_RA's excellent recovery image, remember to Nandroid backup first. You probably won't want to use this as your production ROM yet!
DOWNLOAD
These links use referrer checking to prevent bandwidth theft - if you get redirected to the MoDaCo homepage, try 'right click save as', another browser, or disabling noscript / ad blocking
One more thing?
To finish i'd like to say 'enjoy playing with the ROM', thanks for your support and here's looking forward to the final Desire release (after a few more Betas) on our beloved Nexus Ones!

Bootsound removed - it will be an optional extra in the kitchen. It was annoying me.
Alpha 8
Hugely, HUGELY, optimised for space. Only the framework sits on /data now (and there's 12MB free on system currently!), and I foresee that with more work, we might even be able to fit everything on /system!
dalvik-cache moved to /cache, this frees up a ton of space on /data
.32 Custom kernel by myself and teknologist with undervolt for low frequencies only, our usual modules etc. for VPN, tun and the like, props to persiansown for the UC source and cyanogen for the kernel git - this should fix Bluetooth!

Alpha 7
Fixed issue with ringtones list
Alpha 6
Changes to try and resolve random reboots
Alpha 5
Fixed white screen on boot, wifi and update-script issues
Fixed graphical glitching
Alpha 1-4
Disastrous
Did a full wipe and flashed Alpha 5.
First boot took 2 minutes 40 seconds from cold boot. Subsequent boots took 20-30 seconds.
Rom seems pretty fast although I do see some (minor) slowness coming from CyanogenMod.
HTC setup is working. Including adding wifi and setting up your Google, Facebook, Flickr, and Twitter accounts.
Camera is working at the reported 3mp resolution and facial recognition also works.
Flash works but as others have reported it is slow and Hulu.com still doesn't work so your dreams of Hulu on the go are going to have to wait.
The included gallery app is definitely not as eye candy rich as Google's but it is usable.
As we all know the HTC IME is far better then the stock keyboard.
As stated FM doesn't work but it seems to be trying. It will scan and pick up local stations it just can't seem to produce audio from them.
The proximity and light sensors actually seem to be working better then Stock/CM builds.
USB-MS does not appear to be working. In settings there is a "Connect to PC" option that is set to "Charge Only" with additional options of HTC Sync, Disk Drive, and Internet Sharing. Switching to Disk Drive and trying both ask me and automatic I was not able to have it show as a mounted drive.
With the exception of the USB-MS issue this rom seems very good considering it's alpha state and I can see alot of poeple using this as their daily driver. I did not experience any graphical glitches like in the previous alphas. All in all this is in far better shape already then any Sense port to the G1.
Keep up the good work Paul.
@Paul, I've installed it but something weird happened. I was stuck at the HTC bootscreen and then after a while my "old" wallpaper showed from my CM rom install I did a wipe and everything so no idea what happened.
Trying to reflash as of now
EDIT: works brill! thanks!
Great work! and thankyou v much!

yep very! its working now but during the initial setup i got a reboot whilst searching for wifi.
and just now whilst trying again it rebooted once more.

Hmmm, not finding any devices either here I don't think. I am 95% sure I know what the problem is if this is the case, so I can probably fix for next alpha.

Fantastic work, paul! Thanks much, and I'll be dropping by to buy kitchen access!
Notes:
1) My SD card isn't loaded upon boot. I'm an android n00b, but I've noticed that android really doesn't like to run without an SD card, and indeed, I got a couple of spontaneous reboots. This last time, I hit the notification area instantly and pressed the SD card notification, it loaded the card, and I haven't had a reboot since (yet).
2) I've had apps tell me to insert SD card, even though the notification is gone, and things seem to be working well. More details as situation develops.
(sd card is SanDisk 8G Class 2, installed this ROM after a wipe, previous ROM CyanogenMod 5.0.3)
UPDATE: yeah, Titanium Backup is not seeing my SD card at all. Trying to mount it via adb shell, not really sure what the device name is! If anyone knows, chime in! Otherwise, let's learn together!
sorry for the annoyance...and bluetooth? about to become adfree member fo sho
u answered it at modaco, thanks. look forward to alpha 6!
SDcard seems to be OK here?
P
[removed by Paul]
Just had a reboot on startup. If anyone can grab a logcat at reboot time, that might give us a clue as to what's happening.
P
any news on sync? none of the syncs seem to be working atm for me.
thanks
just flash it , seem too good to be alpha
i'll play around with it for a while and will get back
## confirm about reboot issue , but i had it when testing a keyboard .. type word SIMPLE or something .. then N1 reboot all of sudden ##
reboots galore
When I try to sign in to facebook. when i try to connect to wifi.
Speed is fantastic and my internet is way faster then the stock rom.
Ok when i try to access the downloads section in the android market i get reboots.
I've adb-logcatted and there's nothing immediately obviously, i'm going to use my device and try and establish a pattern of behaviour to the reboots.

New icons for 1.1 beta
Always nice to see new people building from source! Good job!
Sounds good. BTW, thanks for the mention
Mmmmhh.. No Flash Player in the market :/
Trackball alert support please
Ok, I tried out your rom. Multiple attempts to install.
I get - first off a choice of if I want to use the wizard or not, and that seems wrong.
Then I use the wizard once, it crashes to the beginning, I use it again and it FC's.
After that I cannot get on my network, I do a network search, find ATT and select it but never connect.
I have tried every way I can think of to make it connect to ATT but it will not.
Thanks for the attempt at the ROM, but I had to uninstall it.

Well, I have tried myself to wipe data (all) when installing the ROM and it is OK.
But most of the case, you do not need to wipe data. Just wipe cache + dalvik-cache, you should not be seeing the wizard.
BTW, can you PM me the logcat and which radio version you are using? Thanks.
**Update: I have just wipe data + cache + dalvik-cache and re-install the ROM -> can go through the wizard without any FC. For network problem, is that you do not type in a correct APN?
great rom thanks
we need more roms like this one, thanx and hope you keep up the work....
Where did you get icons from second pic?

thanks, icons are come from crystal project, more icons are still under modifications
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
I will release version 1.1 Beta within few hours later.
It would include:
- A more complete build.prop
- A more complete apns-conf.xml APN list
- A revised hosts file
- Default kernel changed to Wildmonk's 2.6.35_SVS-950mV_CFS_AXI_NoAB_No720p_1113MHz_081910.zip
I am thinking of whether to include a few ICON replacements for the stock browser, calculator, calendar, clock and messaging. Icons are from crystal project in which they are under GNU public license.
Any ideas?

Apologies I did not log in till just now. I have installed InnovationOS so I don't have my log cat. However if you find it critical I can go through the install again and get it for you.
As far as APN. I have to admit not editing it. I did search for the network, it found ATT and I told it to select it. It would register but never get edge or 3G.
I do commend you. It's a great build idea. Check out Liquid Froyo on the droid. They are making slim lean and mean droid builds. I would love for that on my N1
Let me know if you want that log cat. It may take a day.

No worry, I am improving the APN list so that you will find a more complete APN list in the next build. Thanks for your support.

a little tip:
When building, you can use:
Code:
TARGET_NO_RADIOIMAGE=true make otapackage
It will automatically create an update zip with updater-script and sign it for you. Saves a TON of time
great rom
thanks , great rom.keep it up.
Hi could you add Gtalk and trackball colors? that would make it great!

Installation
Download ROM and place on your SD card
Boot into xRecovery
Flash the attached file with xRecovery by using "Install custom zip"
IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY ON .435 FIRMWARE: Flash this with Flash Tool.
Reboot and be patient. First boot can take several minutes at the boot animation. This is normal.
On first boot you'll get a "Complete action using..." screen with LauncherPro and the Setup Wizard. You can choose either.
OPTIONAL: Uninstall the Setup Wizard by holding it over the trash can until "Drop to uninstall" appears.
Check out this link after installation for tips on LauncherPro: http://androinica.com/2010/08/23/11-ways-to-get-the-most-out-of-launcherpro/
I recommend at least changing the opening Speeds to 10 (Prefrences > Advanced Settings > Opening speed). That makes the phone feel a lot more responsive.

Q&A
Q: Does this ROM come with app2sd?
A: No. An app2sd version will come, but your SD card will have to be partitioned first. See this thread for more information: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=800555
Q: Is this for X10a or X10i?
A: It will work for either, but your "About phone" page will show X10i (See screen shot above).
Q: What is "zipaligning"?
A: Zipaligning is a way of optimizing an APK's RAM use.
Q: What will happen if I update a zipaligned APK?
A: The update will download and overwrite the zipaligned version.
Q: Does everything work?
A: Yes. That was my intent with this ROM: Provide high performance without loss of functionality. Everything that works in the stock SE ROM (Bluetooth, WiFi, Camera, etc) works in this ROM.
Q: Can you replace LauncherPro with LauncherPro Plus?
A: I can't, but you can. Just enter your product key in preferences. You can also install a different launcher like ADW, but you'll have to use TitaniumBackup or a root uninstaller to remove LauncherPro.
I hope everyone finds this ROM useful. Requests and suggestions are welcomed. If you use this for a theme or as a base for a custom ROM, please let me know. I'd like to see where this winds up. Thanks.
is this rom come with app2sd? and how much is the partition size?
suggestion if i may:
transparent notification bar.
better looking of fonts. (Nosferatu or Sony Sketch)
bootanimation.
including SetCpu and Thumbkeyboard.
hopes it helps. just a thought.
cheers,
xcxa23
well. thanks for the quick respond. good luck
This does not come with app2sd. You have to partition your SD card yourself. See this thread for more information: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=800555

Zipaligning is a way to optimize an APKs RAM use. If you update an app, you'll lose this optimization, but I will keep current copies of all APKs in this ROM available. I will also optimize any other APKs requested.

It should support all languages that the stock SE ROM does, but I have only tested English. When you run the setup wizard after first boot, you can select whatever you want.
Great idea to make a basic speed ROM like that!
I'll wait for the lite ROM without apps and download your apk package separately
Hey,
I love the ROM as its extremely fast and I can't wait for the you to get themeing. However I can't sync my contacts. Even if I try to force it from the phonebook it quickly crashes and then restarts.
Aside from that everything seems to be working great.
If you have any solutions for the sync please let me know as I'm on the road (I know I'm an idiot for flashing when I had to leave) and don't have any contacts or phone numbers memorized
Edit: Also there isn't an account sync option in 'Settings'.

Just spam the sync button in the contacts menu and it should start syncing. At least for me it did.
i have the same problem with the contacts, i can`t sync with anything, and i can`t restore contacts from an existing backup, please do something
L.E. here are the screenshots of the errors that i get

I think you stated everything works in this version. Are there any known bugs? I will flash this today and test it out.

Yes everything works. I will edit the first post to reflect that. The only known bug I have found is the Contacts screen always defaults to the initial screen for importing contacts so I just replaced that shortcut from the dock and go to contacts from the phone shortcut.
Awesome! I've been hoping for a stock rom that could be overclocked for the R800x for some time now

Yes. I had already looked into that. I can make another zip including it with a black background and white text or would a dark blue similar to the settings background be better?

Unfortunately no, getting the 2.3.4 firmwares to work on the R800x is still a work in progress. They will run on our phone, but without service.
I haven't tried using that, but can look into it. I was going to work on tweaking the v3 kernel with some of his newer features anyways.

Thanks 007. I've spent all morning messing with the feature, and it looks like it isn't running any of the startup scripts in the /etc/init.d folder. It certainly isn't running the mount scripts. I await your wizardry with baited breath.

The black background with white text is what I'm used to, but the blue sounds interesting. Any way you could upload a .zip for each one. By .zip you mean a small .zip to flash through CWM, right?

I remember seeing in DoomLord's thread where he made changes in the kernel for
4.0.A.2.368 that gave better init.d support.
NM, had the wrong CDMA mode selected.
Is there a safe to remove apps list? Seeing the chinesetextinput.apk at 8MB is disturbing to me. Haha.
After playing with this for a while I think the only other bug would be the incoming call slider being cut off for some reason. Other than that this ROM runs great and everything works.
Do u need an unlock bootloader to flash this?

The .368 kernel didnt work with this firmware, I tried it and did not have camera. The v3 .145 kernel posted here seems to have something different to it because no matter where I put busybox or how I edit scripts the dalvik2cache mod never works. Ive tried using both the dalvik hack zip and Dooms dalvik mod zip and neither work. Same results with the .145 kernel on stock verizon firmware.
I also tried running the insecure adb .apk even though the kernel is already insecure, still no luck. No support on the problem from doom either.
I flashed back to stock kernel and the dalvik mod works fine with this firmware so its def. the kernel. Just cant seem to figure it out!
Does the manual process through ADB not work with v3 either? Would rather be sitting at 140MB free instead of 71MB. Haha.
Also is there any way to get Wireless Tether for Root Users to work? I tried setting to Nexus One, and it keeps popping up that hotspot is active, and won't allow anything to connect.

I actually had the built in wireless tether work for me without using an app or sending me to the verizon page.
Try the new alternate kernel I posted for the init.d script problems and let me know if it works.
I'll have to test after work. I'll let you know how it goes.
Also, separate question: Doomkernel v3 is supposed to have a whole host of cpu governors, but my setcpu only shows conservative, ondemand, userspace, powersave, and performance. No Smartass, interactive, or any of the other frills that are supposedly in his v3 kernel. Do you guys have the missing governors, and am I just stupid or something?
I will test it out. Just to be sure, this is a test to get the dalvik hack working, or are any other tweaks involved?
Also how do I get into CWM with this kernel? I can't seem to get in there either through hitting the back button, volume rocker while booting. I also can't seem to get into it by rebooting into it through Rom Toolbox, I ended up having to boot off recoveryplay.img.
I have 197MB free up from 57!
You have to spam the back button to get into recovery while it boots. I start spamming as soon as "sony ericcson" shows on screen. If you wait until you get the SE animated boot logo, you're too late.

I am not including the hboot and I do not recomend you update it as of yet either as it will prevent you from reverting to previous ROM versions.​
Out of alpha and into Beta, xposed installer and sense5 toolbox included in mods install in aroma.​Please do not ask for RUU downloads and don't ask for updates it is likely this will not have any major changes until the RUU is made public. I will keep you posted as progress continues.​
Supports xPosed Framework Check it out HERE​
I recommend installing the Sense5 Toolbox module as it provides the most comprehensive set of tweaks available​

HUGE THANKS to @scrosler over in the LG G2 forums his thread is HERE
Please visit his thread and thank him for his work, he is the original developer behind this fix i just rewrote it for use on HTC devices.
Google Services Framework Fix (step by step instructions)​This will fix Play Store issues​MAKE A NAND BACKUP OF YOUR NON WORKING ROM​
Code:
STEP 1: Restore a working backup (one you know play store worked on)
STEP 2: Download a windows android file browser (I recommend Android Comander)
STEP 3: Connect your device to your PC, Open the android file browser
STEP 4: Browse to /data/data and locate "com.google.android.gsf"
STEP 5: Copy the folder from STEP 4 to your sdcard (remember this location)
STEP 6: Restore your non working ROM from in recovery, Reboot
STEP 7: using a root explorer (or the windows android browser) locate the folder from STEP 5
STEP 8: Copy the folder from STEP 5 into /data/data make sure you choose to overwrite the folder and files
STEP 9: Reboot (You must reboot first, do not immediately try to open play store)
STEP 10: Once rebooted test Play Store, Google Plus and Hangouts all should work fine.
I realize this seems like a daunting task just to fix the Play Store,
but there is no easier way at this point to accomplish this the Google account MUST exist before restoring this folder
in order for the fix to work.​

Everything appears to be working great, though I am still on the new Hboot, so it's more likely to work fine. :silly: I'm running it with the stock kernel, but what are the benefits of an unsecured boot.img?

Insecure boot image lets you use adb remount, and adb push or adb pull etc. to /system and its contents.
also the included boot image has init.d support, sdcard performance tweaks and evitareul_common tweaks. so you will get better performance when streaming large video files or playing music from your /data/media folder
great but 1 bug
Flashed the rom and everything is working, except Google search. Every time I use voice search I get Google search has stopped. Super smooth though. Great work.
