I wrote how to install Android 2.2 (CM4IS01) on Sharp IS01 /Sh-10B. The newer version of cm4is01 have been out for a while since then. This is a updated post on the how to install new CyanogenMod on IS01. Sorry for the late.
NOTE: Use at your own risk.
note: install new system will move all data of your old CM4IS01 system to a backup location. The files are there, but you may not access them, so backup your important data before the installation!!!
note: The stock 1.6 system will be kept. After this installation, your IS01 should boot up CyanogenMod android 2.2 with recovery mode, while a normal boot with the original 1.6 system.
How to install CM4IS01 on Sharp IS01 /sh-10B:
1. Root your IS01/ Sh-10B (How to root IS01 / Lynx SH-10B), and install a terminal (e.g. Terminal Emulator) on the IS01.
2. Download boot image froyo_bootv3.img , cm4is01 system file system-110927.tar.gz and the patch android.policy.jar.
3. Copy these files to the root directory of a microSD card.
4. Insert the microSD Card into you IS01, start IS01 with the original android 1.6 system (If you have installed CM4IS01 android 2.2, do NOT boot it), and run the following commands on the Terminal of your IS01:
$ su # flash_image recovery_wr /sdcard/froyo_bootv3.img # mkdir /data/cm4is01 # cd /data/cm4is01 # gunzip -cd /sdcard/system-110927.tar.gz | tar -xvf - -C /data/cm4is01 # mv system system.back # mv system-110927 system # mkdir data cache # sync # sync # sync # reboot recovery
Your phone will reboots with new CyanogenMod Android 2.2.
5. When the phone boot up, open the Terminal:
# su # fix_permissions # reboot recovery
The phone will reboot again.
6. Fix adb usb and screen lock problem: open terminal on the new CM4IS01 system:
$su #echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/msm_hsusb_periphera/qxdm_enable #cp /sdcard/android.policy.jar /system/framework/ #chmod 755 /system/framework/android.policy.jar # reboot recovery
Your IS01 / SH-10B will reboot, it may take some time. When it boot up, the new CM4IS01 android 2.2 system is installed.
Hi, I'm unable to make this installation. I only have adb shell through recovery_kit and I can not mv system system.back. If I do this step I lose adb connection to device and can not do anything else. Well, I'm still stuck here. Do you have the stock rom the SH10-B came with I could reflash. Thanks
If you have not installed cm4is01 before, you won't need to move system folder to system.back. So you may skip the command.
Sharp does not offer any official rom for SH10-B on its website.
BTW, why don't do the installation on android 1.6 system?
my android 1.6 system no longer boots ever since I flashed recovery-kit image to it. I believed the recovery-kit.img replaced the android 1.6 boot.img and I don't have a back up copy. Th only option I had was adb shell and now CM4IS01.
Just to make sure I get this clear. If this is dual booting my SH-10B with CM6 then the stock 1.6 system partition is not change. So does this means that Froyo_bootv3.img is booting everything from /data/cm4is01 folder. For the file build.prop that I need to comment out the four lines, why it is not commented out beforehand? Just wondering cause I am having issues with vi commands under abd shell
PS. will you guys be working on CM7 gingerbread soon or CM9 ICS for the IS01/SH-10B. Thanks
You are right. Froyo_bootv3 boot from /data/cm4is01.
Editing the four lines of build.prop will fix some online media problem. That is what they say. On second thought, I don't think it is necessary to include this on a system installation guide, and you could do it after the system is installed, so I remove the section. Now the guide should looks much simpler.
In fact I did not create cm4is01, some Japanese did. I hope there will be new rom for IS01.
success! CM4IS01 is up and running. looks good. Thanks
:) you are welcome.
Installation successfully yesterday! I tried video call and back camera is ok but front one doesn't work. Everything is smoother than outdate version. Thanks much.
Hi, have you guys gave this site a look? https://sh-dev.sharp.co.jp/android/modules/driver/ . The translated pages seems to suggest that Sharp had releases developer sdk add ons that could be use to make new mods etc. Idk.
Anyway, I have been using my Cm4is01 system and these small issues arise, the taskbar after a couple of uses disappears until the system is rebooted. to remedy that I add most of my app to the desktops.
It would be really be nice if they can get bluetooth to work on this since I can't seem to find these flat type headphones here in the states. They don't even have those things on ebay.
