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.
Finally I found the heapset adapter on ebay after all.
Please help me. I have a Lynx SH-10B rooted and installed CM4. One day, my divice (running CM4) became very hot while charging overnight. Now, it can't boot to android, always stuck at NTT Docomo logo. Could you pls help me if there is any ideal or solution?
Hi, idk if you realized this already but, I am having this similar issue. The problem seem to be that the battery is not charging properly, although the indicator light is on. This thing seem to get hot easily and the only way to get around that is to take and keep the battery out for a few minutes then try again.
Hello!
Seems I bricked my IS01 )-: I did not unroot the device properly before resetting to default.
It stucks at [IS series] screen when booting. It has factory 1.6 and 2.2 flashed as recovery. Is there any way to recover it or access QXDM?
Thank you!
Try to press reset button
I've actualy tried to root the IS01 but with no succes folowing the above instructions.
But that's not the problem. I'm asking someone here, (YOU) to please tell me if you know, how to reset to factory settings the SHARP IS01 without the use of UI. I've installed a stupid software called Sceen Off, and that turns off my screen every time the device boots up. (Imediatley). It was suppoused to save the battery.
Advice will be apreciated!
Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey guys, I just recently discovered that an ICS built was being worked on, (http://twitter.com/#!/karma1501) and i saw some videos on youtube. Are you guys part of the team working on it and will it be posted here soon? And if possible, I saw that they were working with the Sharp Lynx SH-10B, would one of these guys have a back-up boot.img of the original android 1.6 system? I really love this device. I just wish I could have more control over it in order to use it more efficiently. Thanks for all your hard work and support.
Hello,
I bought a red Lynx SH-10B to replace my bricked IS01.
OS: 1.6, Baseband 1.00, Build number 01.00.02.
I was able to install/flash ICS (karma150) after the first time I rooted my phone. It was tad slow so I wanted to revert it to CM4IS01.
Recovery_wr partition is lost.
"cat /proc/mtd" does not show mtd8,9,10 partitions.
I tried the recommended method to bring back boot_wr and recovery_wr partitions but it did not suceed.
I rooted my phone with
-- superuser su-2.3.6.1-ef
-- z4root 1.3.0, version 6
-- marijuana's tool
-- is01root, from IS01root_002proj.zip
I can not insmod msm_nand_ex.ko using the following commands from terminal:
$ su
# cd /sqlite_journals/install
# stop mediayamaha
# kill -9 'pidof mediayamahaserver'
# ./ae2break
f=6
f2=6
ret=0
# ./prepare
# ./modules_enabler_plus
Start.
Finish. Enjoy!
# insmod ./msm_nand_ex.ko
insmod: init_module 'msm_nand_ex.ko' failed (Operation not permited)
# cat /proc/mtd
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0:...
...
mtd7:...
#
Any suggestions please?
Thank you in advance,
Dennis
Hi dmarschal, seem like you had better luck the second time around. I wonder what you did your IS01. I see you where able to install the ICS4 and did the nandunlock. What does the nandunlock gives you? I'm still a bit puzzled on how you did it and what you did. Where's the file that you use to push to the phone? Me on the other hand, while I have CM4IS01 on mine, I'm unable to use my boot partition. I flashed the IS01 boot image on it and lost root from there. I can only boot to recovery where CM4IS01 is installed. Which I have to do from adb on my computer.
Does anyone out there have one of these they would like to sell?
I want to do some developing on this clam shell type device.
Thanks,
