As you can plainly see, it had been created by commnuity of the best forum about Motorola phones ever - motofan.ru.

With this firmware you'll get wonderful Standard Blue Skin (by mEASYn, thanks a lot!), russian and english langpack, great ringtones, and one great picture included in Skin. This version is not final (only alpha) and it has many bugs .

Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: hobbit19 on September 15, 2007, 11:54:47 am Please don't mirror that files for few weeks, we wanna get some statistics on ezxdev.org.
Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: Exploited on September 15, 2007, 12:00:00 pm ok - I posted the original links
P.S. Flashing :) Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: Exploited on September 15, 2007, 12:16:18 pm First impressions: EXTREMELY FAST! I've never seen such fast firmware so far... It's loading my phonebook with lighning speed and the menu is ultimately fast everywhere.
I got a problem with the font of the menu - white text on white background. Deleting /ezx_user/download/appwrite/setup/ezx_theme.cfg as they said on the first run - does not fix it.... The resolution of this issue is to go to Settings > Themes > Left button > Reset theme to original values... Now the font is black. The theme - not the best I've seen so far... Now I am exploiting the new features Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: vanhieumai on September 15, 2007, 12:20:36 pm i can't download full version. only 31Mb then stop.
now i must try reflash version. Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: Exploited on September 15, 2007, 12:27:34 pm I did the reflash version
BTW I cannot find many of the advertised things... I can't figure out how to copy/paste text. It's not in the left button menu options Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: TaZ on September 15, 2007, 12:28:22 pm LINKS DON'T WORK!! PLZ FIX IT!! :-\
Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: keaglez on September 15, 2007, 12:31:57 pm Amazing, two long waited MP comes at the same time.. I cant try it now, but i will try ASAP.. I wonder what different between full flash and reflash? Thanks.
Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: rodrigon121 on September 15, 2007, 12:47:50 pm Amazing, two long waited MP comes at the same time.. I cant try it now, but i will try ASAP.. I wonder what different between full flash and reflash? Thanks. me too, i`ll try full, just in case :P Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: vanhieumai on September 15, 2007, 12:59:01 pm reflash contain only CG34, 41, 43
when you flash reflash pakage from ilove3d firmware, you'll lose Setting. you need to telnet to ezx_user/download/appwrite/am then delete Usermenutree, sysregistry.... to fix it. Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: Exploited on September 15, 2007, 01:03:28 pm Downloads do not work. I will put on E2mod.com now
BTW I cannot find uninstall MPKG too Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: abokamel on September 15, 2007, 01:28:23 pm As Always "Exploited", we got the UNLIMITED support from you, thanks for the link on E2 MOD, I'm downloading now, and after that I'll review that software, but I need to suggest for something, why don't we post our review for this software HERE, then we can collect more than an opinion after that Exploited can POST in directly on"bugzilla" with Motohell name.
Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: TaZ on September 15, 2007, 01:47:06 pm this FW suxx except multitasking(but it isn't perfect too: 1st we need to hide aplication and then we can raise other, KILL option doesn't work) and Fixed list-scrolling(but it still half-fixed :-\ ).
volmodder doesn't work and SWAP doesn't work :-\ BTW, where are that icons on desktop(like in symbian) ??? ??? Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: u4ia_eclipse on September 15, 2007, 01:51:06 pm installed it!
Music Key is set to nav_ok and there's multi-press. i really hope i can still flash the AiO langpack without any lag. Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: ecmperalta on September 15, 2007, 01:57:29 pm downlowding..... ;)

PS: i love keypad locked function. :D Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: arctu on September 15, 2007, 06:36:07 pm nice firmware. and i like the skin. ;)
i reflashed from ilove3d ultimate. Menu is okay now. But I lost the programs installed on phone. ><. Any idea what to do? Hmm.. can anyone translate the russian folders and its functions? EDIT: Can't access bugzilla. Bugs: MediaPlayer not fixed. Russians lang on some icons even though I switched to English lang. Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: huatz84 on September 15, 2007, 08:01:59 pm I can't try it now coz my internet is so slow.Anyway,it's just a preview.Better wait for the final release.
Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: u4ia_eclipse on September 15, 2007, 08:30:35 pm i installed it. it works great!
Phone is fast. There are still times when it freezes up for a moment. But then it'll work after a few seconds. It's stilll in ALPHA stage so i guess it's expected to have lots of bugs. Also the Mark function in Text Entry still has some bugs. Sometimes it Marks texts by itself.. Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: sjj on September 15, 2007, 09:34:10 pm Is this a beta version?
Can someone give me the fps in the low quality test in jbenchmark 3d? Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: error398 on September 15, 2007, 11:04:28 pm seems interesting, seems unstable.. im worried to flashing now.. just waiting till everything is ok ;)
Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: arctu on September 15, 2007, 11:30:45 pm showQ binaries are not there. If I'm not wrong, this firmware is based on The One Beta 2. Anyone kindly decompile the cg for /bin and add in the showQ binaries and other extras?
Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: glodos on September 16, 2007, 12:14:47 am yeah i think it's necessary...some applications don't work and system utilities like sd manager and all other from Ultimate are needed...
i like iLaunch and other new features but somebody forgot about other tools and improvements, for ex SWAP partition which doesn't work... how long must we waiting for the perfect firmware? :/ Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: hobbit19 on September 16, 2007, 12:32:26 am Why the hell you are making mirror of thath files when we explicetely asked you not to do it?
mirrors deleted Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: u4ia_eclipse on September 16, 2007, 12:49:31 am I got questions:
1)What does "SDS" function in FM Radio do? 2)How do I install new skins? Where should i place them? 3)How do i change the system font? 4)Where to put an autostart.txt or a startup.txt file? Thanks! Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: hobbit19 on September 16, 2007, 01:17:05 am Please do your reports about all bugs HERE http://ezxdev.org/bugzilla
If you don't, we can't release next version of Kaleid =) Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: pizzadox619 on September 16, 2007, 01:38:44 am i will try this f/w ASAP...
Quote 2)How do I install new skins? Where should i place them? U must manually copy-paste the skin via samba or LinkSYS...3)How do i change the system font? 4)Where to put an autostart.txt or a startup.txt file? And this f/w IS NOT BASED on ilove3d f/w. CMIIW Quote yeah i think it's necessary...some applications don't work and system utilities like sd manager and all other from Ultimate are needed... AFAIK some ilove3d's ToolBox contain Show** Binaries.i like iLaunch and other new features but somebody forgot about other tools and improvements, for ex SWAP partition which doesn't work... how long must we waiting for the perfect firmware? :/ It just alpha version we must help reports some bugs. So, hobbit19 can release next version faster... Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: u4ia_eclipse on September 16, 2007, 01:45:16 am can we enable a swap file?
Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: Exploited on September 16, 2007, 01:53:43 am Crap, I don't know what happened, but I did not reflash correctly maybe. I am missing all of the advertized things... I will reflash again :)
Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: TaZ on September 16, 2007, 02:00:17 am can we enable a swap file? Cant' u read? some posts above... Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: sjj on September 16, 2007, 02:04:13 am I think SDS is digital radio... Am I right ???
Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: u4ia_eclipse on September 16, 2007, 03:13:45 am he said swap PARTITION. im asking about swap FILE.. =)
Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: Exploited on September 16, 2007, 05:33:02 am all good now - reflashed again and I have the new features... Everything is perfect - the best firmware so far!
Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: Exploited on September 16, 2007, 05:57:07 am I don't know how to remove icon from iLunch too, but it is great feature. Much better than the default desktop icons, which are ugly
Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: arctu on September 16, 2007, 06:00:44 am Somebody already noted above. To remove ILaunch icons, go to main menu, left softkey->Reorder ILaunch. Select the icon and press C button. ;)
Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: Exploited on September 16, 2007, 06:16:35 am Thanks, I didn't saw.
Where is the process manager and idle screen menu? I feel like total n00b here :) P.S. Actually I can guess that "idle screen menu" is "ILunch" Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: sjj on September 16, 2007, 06:19:36 am Press the music key for process manager....
Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: Exploited on September 16, 2007, 06:39:52 am Got it - working properly. The MP is superb work!
Bugs: 1. Sometimes my camera is starting unexpected, but it cannot be represented. 2. When I put Contacts on iLunch - it does not always start properly 3. No low battery sound, which leads me to not use my phone as alarm clock... Anybody knows how to enable low batt sound easily? I suggest everybody to flash language pack over it, because by default it will search with cyrilic letters in the phonebook Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: pizzadox619 on September 16, 2007, 07:09:54 am i saw other features
app -> option -> move to folder now the list is showing folder only . and send java apps. Great firmware... Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: Exploited on September 16, 2007, 07:22:19 am I think the low bat sound is just mapped.
Where is the autorun file located? Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: glodos on September 16, 2007, 07:36:01 am messages also don't start from iLaunch...and it isn't posiible to set root permissions for me....it has many bugs but i hope that somebody will combine both new monsters...Katze3 and Kaleidoscope to new one
that would be the best monster Exploited, i didn't see any autorun file...simply it doesn't exist :/ Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: pizzadox619 on September 16, 2007, 07:56:15 am Quote Where is the autorun file located? autorun script is only on ilove3d's firmware. CMIIWwhere is the skin directory? Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: vanhieumai on September 16, 2007, 08:03:04 am yes
messages, contact don't start from ILaunch. we can rename mpkg apps but can't rename java apps. i test MatraxBenmach and i think this fw is slower than Ultimate or SELF V2 (ONLY YOU) ;) but this is the best now with more function improved Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: Exploited on September 16, 2007, 11:03:18 am I see the batt sound (notification 5 I think) is already there, but there is no sound when the battery falls... Too sad for me :)
Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: kinurabi on September 16, 2007, 01:29:11 pm Where is the task manager? I cannot find it
Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: whitemoto on September 16, 2007, 02:46:23 pm Quote Where is the autorun file located? autorun script is only on ilove3d's firmware.

Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: ilove3d on September 16, 2007, 06:09:34 pm though show*** modules are "ugly" as you Russian guys said
but it really helps made a huge number of easy programs instead of the much more ugly ding and dingdong mpkgs. Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: error398 on September 16, 2007, 06:16:34 pm hurmm.. i didnt flash this preview yet.. its just alpha version, must wait beta or final version. ;)

This show* way sucks hardly. I'd rather rewrite all that stupid programs to pure c++ or make a bindings of ezx and qt libraries to some high level language (python for example) than use that show*.

[/quote] yup. you guys should check it. or.. its /ezxlocal/startup.txt or /ezxlocal/startup_test.txt -------- hmm.. i think i agree with hobbit.. someone should port the libs to python but.. its like nobody have the knowledge to do it or are too lazy to do it. SO.. the best solution now is to use show** binaries. Or people can go and make firmwares based on kaleidoscope+ultimate/katze. Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: pizzadox619 on September 17, 2007, 02:32:13 am can someone describe the apps in this f/w? Coz the apps still russian,

The thing is that there is no a folder in the place where I used to copy the skins. Can somebody help??? Just do telnet and samba go to skin section, there is availabe how to install skin Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: kinurabi on September 17, 2007, 08:58:54 pm Thnks for the skin help. I realized where I was doing wrong. :P
Just an idea. I noticed that the messages and web access in the task manager are constantly running. This is a good thing since when you open this applications that are running on the background the access is much faster. For the next firmware I would recommend the music player to run in the background. It would increase the speed of access and the lag in the media finder. This is implemented in Nokia N73 (Sucker). In Rokr E2 there will not be low memory problems because it supports swap file. Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: motomaniacs on September 18, 2007, 03:17:24 am ^ c'mon support hobbit19 ;) LOL.. im at the office now, How come i want to flash my baby E2. after berbuka puasa, i'll flash 2 FW at the same times LOL ;) so you puasa juga huh bro.... nice to know that :D Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: abokamel on September 18, 2007, 05:18:07 am @Exploited, I think your decision is great to END this war, thanks for doing that.

How to install show modulse? Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: imbanget on September 19, 2007, 07:18:43 pm I really like the edit (copy/paste) sub menu.. It will be more useful if it has select all and go to start/end of text.. The iLaunch feature is pretty cool (with some bugs).. It make my E2 looks like Windows Mobile or Symbian.. I wish my E2 can display calendar and task entry on the desktop (like win mobile and symbian did).. For Kaleidoscope developer, can u make this posible..??

Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: error398 on September 28, 2007, 11:10:42 pm I flashed my phone to other firmwares that's mixed with kalei but now i think i want to return back to kalei. although there are alot of features disabled or not included in this firmware, i feel that this is the fastest firmware around. very minimal lag. good work! this is ur taste.. if u feel kalei is better just go on.. no one could stop ur option.. ;) Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: mrz258 on October 01, 2007, 02:16:46 am which BP is perfect match with this FW?

Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: mazosan on November 06, 2007, 02:26:51 pm The download of this FW doesn´t ends...
it downloads 20% and stop... When I try unzip, the file is corrupted.. Is there another link? Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: fy20062006 on March 22, 2008, 05:39:47 am NO UPDATE?
WHY? Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: Taurnil on March 25, 2008, 06:25:34 am because probably the authors have a live and more things to do... that's not the attitude towards FW modders :S
Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: spacebar on March 29, 2008, 02:23:57 am this fw is utter crap. what with all these ru lang?? if u want to release it to evry1 please.. pretty please make it international. and its not just this particular fw.. almost all fw i tried got this glaring prob. jeezz...
Title: Re: Kaleidoscope Post by: Taurnil on March 29, 2008, 09:03:28 pm Lol... AFAIK the authors never though about releasing an international version. That boss attitude won't help a bit. If u don't like any FW, Stop whining and do something on your own! We don't work on this or have the obligation of pleasing u. We mod cuz we like it. That's all.
