CyanogenMod 10.2 / Android 4.3.1 for the ZTE Tureis
What’s the result of massive amounts of code and a few weeks development time? Android 4.3.1 / Cyanogenmod 10.2 for the ZTE Tureis!
First, some screenshots – more details are below of them:
Features of this ROM:
-removed a lot of pre-installed apps
-ICS-Adreno 200-driver for better performance
-is searching for a swap partition on the sd card and uses it
-Apps are installed onto the SD
-extended kernel with functions like zRAM, some io schedulers and cpu governors
-bcmdhd-driver for better wifi performance
Known Bugs:
-Bluetooth is not working (apparently some problems with rfkill at the moment)
-Compass not working (they built in the sensor sideways – have to work out the axis. I already did that for the g-sensor and it’s running)
Bluetooth and Compass were fixed in release 1.01 below.
How to install?
Attention: The Tureis must’ve been rooted!
1. Download the ZIP file and unzip it to your sd card with the following path scheme:
path-to-sd-card/clockworkmod/backup/cyanogenmod/the-files
2. Open up a terminal on the tureis (with this app) and enter the following command:
su && flash_image recovery /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/cyanogenmod/recovery.img
3. Reboot the phone while pressing POWER DOWN. Clockworkmod is opening. There you choose “Restore” and your cyanogenmod folder on the sd card. Now wait a minute while it’s processing the files and choose “Reboot”. You are done!
How to root the Tureis
If you are still using the stock android without root, create an “image” folder on the root of the sd card. Using this, we will flash an (old, but signed) ClockWorkMod. Download this here and extract the “image.bin” into the image-folder on your sd card. After that, you can go to the settings of Android and use the SD flash method to install it.
CWM is installed now – fine. Let’s move on to getting root access on the device. Copy this zip file onto your SD card.
After that, reboot the device and hold the Power and VOL Down buttons simultaneously. CWM will start up – use the “Install zip file” option to install the zip file and – voila – your device is rooted now.

I don’t take responsibility for any damage of your device whats-o-ever! This is a custom ROM and no official android from the manufacturer!
