I have a G3 D855 need to port AOSP ROM on it - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey you guys I don't know if this is the right place to start this read but if it is, I have a G3 D855 and willing to do testing on it. I don't know how to port, make, cook, etc anything to Roms. I know a bit if ADB and flashing my phone is already rooted. I'm willing to get in touch with someone that has what it takes to get the Original Development of the G3 moving and et AOSP Roms for the phone to start flooding this great community.
This is a masterpiece of a phone. Development takes its time. Instead of waiting on the sidelines, I wanna help. I figured the sooner I get an AOSP ROM on this phone the sooner I use it. I hate using custom skins on top of Android. September is around the corner, and before we know it the Nexus 6 is on the Play Store and the G3 is not... Well let's just say its no Nexus 6!
So without further ado, help me help speed up the G3 development.
Keep it up boys and girls.
Cheers.

The bootloader can't be unlocked so you can't put an AOSP ROM on it.

If you get ahold of a D851 that bootloader is unlocked. Better chance of it happening there than anywhere until we get an unlocked bootloader for the rest of them.

we are developers wo do not need a unlocked bootloader to flash a new kernel, in the g2 days they build a aosp kernel on the original one

I will update this kernel as long as I have time, introducing new features and fixes for any issues that may arise.
This kernel is available for both AOSP and LG Stock ROMs.
If you're concerned about benchmarks, go here.
Until we have anykernel support, I've put this together for devs looking to integrate this kernel into their projects or users who want to use my kernel on a non-CM based AOSP ROM.
You will need to get a hold of the latest unpackbootimg/mkbootimg, I recommend CM11 source.
To unpack:
Code:
mkdir output
./unpackbootimg -i boot.img -o output
To repack:
Code:
./mkbootimg --kernel output/boot.img-zImage --ramdisk output/boot.img-ramdisk.gz --cmdline "console=ttyHSL0,115200,n8 androidboot.hardware=g2 user_debug=31 msm_rtb.filter=0x0" --base 0x00000000 --pagesize 2048 --ramdisk_offset 0x05000000 --tags_offset 0x04800000 --dt output/boot.img-dt.img -o new_boot.img
Note: Some stock based ROM's have the ramdisk in .lz format, make sure you know what format your ramdisk is before running the repack, and change the command accordingly.[/HIDE]
Want to customize? Use this.

A workaround was found in the G2 bootloader, it was never unlocked but had a vulnerability. So far no such workaround has been found for the G3.

Bootloaders are motherboard specific, they load the ROM. The G2 bootloader would load ROMS on the S800 G2 motherboard so they couldn't "port" it to the G3 S801 motherboard it will be totally different.

the s801 and the s800 did not have much changes so possibly they have recycled some code(humans are lazy), and with a bit of luck they recycled the thing we used/abused
I know this is wishfull thinking but it is the best we can do

you can't port an aosp rom until our device is added to the cm11 tree(have no idea how to do that) which will be done once they figure out a way to flash kernels

Unfortunately there isn't any root options for the new Gb yet and you can't downgrade via RUU back to froyo. So for now, you are stuck. Hopefully someone will find a way to root Gb soon.
Sent from my HTC Original Desire using Tapatalk
Just FYI the problem is not the GB rom (infact the rom is rootable and there are already some custom rom based on the official GB).
The problem is that you flahsed an RUU, that contain the GB rom and in addition a NEW hboot.
That new hboot does not allow permanent root and does not allow to flash an other old hboot at the moment.

I may be tempted to flash mine with the official one, then root it just for the fun of it....

Only features I like in 2.1 sense is the quick settings in notification and htcsense.com / htchub which you can backup the contacts on the phone with.
The Skins are nice but i dont use them...
I dont use the htcsense.com to divert my phone but the option is there if i do forget my phone onetime...
Other than that I'd be very happy with that rom - I want something fast and stable - its just a shame that they didnt include s-off for the hboot too which would have been nice for the 'developer' rom.
I'd still buy another HTC in the future.

Yeah I was wondering the same about the S-OFF.. it's a self proclaimed (By HTC) Dev ROM, so why have they locked the bootloader.. I mean what can you do with it..
They promised so much and completely ****ed us over. I'm glad there's such a good Dev community here, otherwise I'd be a hell of a lot more pissed!
Thank you to all the Devs

I like the stuff it is now. Only kernel source code to go. If the leak was smooth as I think this is, I'd be happy with it.
So we see each other at HTC quad core forums?
i dont think its really a dev release, they just put it there to deter common users.... hence the s-on and new hboot.
i would hope if it was a true dev release then they would have s-off it.

[ROM] Ubuntu Developer Preview (Toroplus port)

Props goes to eng.stk for how to unofficially flash the GSM images. I have modified his quote to include this devices links, and Im' sorry for not asking to quote him. The only credit I take is for modifying one line to make it flash to our devices. The rest goes to the UbuntuOS team and eng.stk
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38285911#post38285911
eng.stk said:
For people wondering about install (tried with TWRP):
1. Nandroid backup
2. Factory Reset
3. Grab toroplus_ubuntu.zip and quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip
4. Flash toroplus_ubuntu.zip
5. Flash quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip (this one will take a while, grab some coffee :laugh
6. Reboot (screen will go black but after a few seconds Ubuntu is up)
7. Profit :highfive:
This install didn't wiped my sdcard. I just restored my TWRP backup after a short Ubuntu testdrive.
If you are paranoid, just copy your stuff from SDCARD to your PC before flashing.

Quote modified to include CORRECT links for our build. I left the rest in tact.
The only thing I did was modify the line so that the zip would be willing to flash to the toroplus. It does not have CMDA/LTE connection, but it does flash and work on WIFI just fine. With it's limited uses ATM, I believe that getting working radios would be useless, and I only have a Verizon toro (though I know for a fact that this boots). Try it and see what I mean. Do not wipe system, or it will not boot.

If I can get a toro phone working, I'll come try this with a helper, but I don't own this, and can't manage to get the toro working (Even though I ported a GSM android rom to verizon, no clue). It could be the base image. I'll work on it further once we get a more fully functioning GSM release. It's good for all developers now thaugh as long as you don't need CDMA features as WIFI still works fine.

Was able to install and boot the Ubuntu OS.I then made a backup of Ubuntu, and was able to restore my CM10.1 with CWM. Cant wait for the A** kicking Devs of XDA to get their teeth on this!!

It's not gonna be much better untill they have a full release. It's not open source quite yet, nor is it ready to use even on GSM. Once the full release and source comes out, we will all have a field day. I MAY (no promise) be able to get calls/texts working on this after their porting guide comes online. I may have just done something dumb. I'll keep the first post up to date.

It is fun to wipe your device for broken isnt it!
Wow. That was pretty slick. Kinda difficult to get used to the gesture based ui. Its really snappy even though its still got its bugs.
I can't wait until the full release and support for CDMA networks.
And the sidebar dock like Ubuntu os is really nice too.
Definitely something different which is good. And even without cell connection, I like it better than iOS. HA
And coming from the Epic Touch, a 500mb ROM didnt even hit me as being huge. Most touchwiz ROMs are close to that size.

Great work once again. My wife refuses to go to custom ROMs and this week I quickly rooted her phone and froze updates so she wouldn't lose the ability to do so in the future. Only downside was not getting the latest update. Then here you are solving that issue for me. It's like you were in my head or something! :silly:
Newbie type question though - will data be effected by flashing this or can i just flash on top stock and retain all her data, apps, accounts and settings?
Thanks
This may be a stupid question, but If I run this to update from MDL will it wipe my apps and have to re-install them and will I loose my customizations to make google wallet and Hangouts video chat over the network work?
Well good morning to me.
Thank you Scott!!
worked great on stock rooted with TWRP, just had to remember to flash loki-doki

Quick question / curious observation -- on the screenshot, I noticed you have MF3 as the build version, but MDL as the modem still.
Did you revert back to MDL, or does this package not flash/include the MF3 modem?

This may be a stupid question, but If I run this to update from MDL will it wipe my apps and have to re-install them and will I loose my customizations to make google wallet and Hangouts video chat over the network work?

You will loose those, yes.
Its a stock ROM.

Yep, should work on any recovery. I left Loki out of it because of the variations of people and configurations that will flash this.

Word!
I actually had this done the about an hour after the OTA was out...
Long story short... I had a bad binary updater file that caused me to pull my already thin hair out. Then another guy, jetlitheone, gave me a really simple idea... Try another updater binary... and... BOOM!
SO credits to jetlitheone for making me not go insane on this build.
Funny thing... No ****... It was the same binary I used on every version of the S4 ROMS I have made before this one... I dont get it... But its now in the past, lol :silly:

nice job scott!! :good: mind if is use this as a base ?

Anyone can use this ROM for any thing they want. Please refer to post #2. Whenever I post a stock rooted ROM its for EVERYONE to make there own or make a public ROM out of.
All yours man...
But credit for the base should be given of course!
TheAxman said:
Now let me ask the stupid question, if I flash this, can we still have the ability to run custom roms after? meaning, we won't be locked into MF3 will we.
Click to expand...

No, this is JUST the ROM, no firmware, no radios, etc.
You can flash this on the MDL firmware just like any other ROM and swap back to any other ROM.
BUt this thing, cleaned up, is HELLA SMOOTH!
Even stock rooted untweaked is smooth! I was impressed! I was about to chuck the S4 after using my HTC One... BUt now I will keep both

Quick question / curious observation -- on the screenshot, I noticed you have MF3 as the build version, but MDL as the modem still.
Did you revert back to MDL, or does this package not flash/include the MF3 modem?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
See above, just the ROM. You do your own modem.
Do not flash any of the SBL's are in another post. They are simply not needed for this ROM. I made it work with the old firmware... Which is the most safe route to go!!!
You can however flash the MF3 radio! Heard it runs good on this base according to a couple guys in my CleanROM thread.
Awesoem work partner!... yourrrrr goooooodddd

Yeah everyone you can find the radios/modem quite easy, if you guys cannot I can link a flashable zip once I find it

Difference between this and Cleanrom 1.5?
hi scott!
just wondering what is the difference between this ROM and CleanRom 1.5?

Why would you post a non-functional rom ?

Seriously.. You posted a non functional ROM you builded. Why?
Lmfao. Nothin like watching your phone bootloop. Why hasn't a mod been called in yet? This is why XDA has gone to crap.

This subforum is titled: G3 Developer Discussion [Developers Only]. XDA is a development community, posting a thread with source and updating it with issues and a logcat is literally the purpose of XDA. He never labeled this a working rom, spamming the thread with this stuff is why XDA has gone to crap.

Some very weird and out of place posts ITT
We appreciate your efforts @manups4e. I'm no android expert but id like to help where i can. Maybe it would be a good idea to setup an IRC channel dedicated to G3 development, would anyone be interested in this?
Members,
Moved to the General section as I don't find any purpose of this ROM posted instead of asking other Devs to help sorting it.
Importantly, this could have a avalanche effect of people bricking their devices and crying foul about it.
Moved to General section and OP @manups4e please mark clearly in the first post to mention that it is not booting up.
Thanks
If you guys think I'm posting crap I can still stop to post my work and continue working alone there's no problem.. At least my ROM is not fake..
Update: I fixed graphics errors so when phone stops bootlooping I will post a real booting ROM in next days if you want obviously and don't think this is crap u.u

+1, dont be disapointed, dont get beaten down by happy flashers. And they nag about everything that is not OK. There are people that appriciat your work. and even if it will never work, they will still respect you for trying. Dont forget it needs to be fun. And satisfaction on sucses. You will learn more and more alongbthe way. and i expect you will bring us more in the near future.

i'm on xda since my first HTC Tattoo.. cyanogenmod was not so famous... it was just a rom and, on htc tattoo it wasn't working on the first times.. the cook (that time custom roms were called "cooked roms" and the rom makers "cook" that's why you can use dsxda "kitchen" to mod roms) of that cyanogenmod rom posted it because it wasn't working and he was looking for help while trying the rom (first 2.1 rom on a phone with android 1.6). You are talking like this because you saw the other guy faking.. i'm here since 5 years and this is not the first rom i cook and if you are not here to help, just wait for the rom to boot up and when you'll try it, tell me if you'll like it

- First ensure you can access the amazon stock recovery
- If you can then go ahead and flash the ROM via Safestrap
- If it fails to boot or flash then reload a different rom via Safestrap
- Losing safestrap is the worst case in which you can just sideload the official amazon 4.6.6 ROM and start again

Thank you very much for especially your reply to my Thread. As I told the only thing which won't work is the Updater Script . So you as a very good Developer with much experience can maybe help me at porting the update Script. At porting this Rom I referred that Thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/guide-build-port-miui-rom-to-device-t3250984
The last step ( Updater Script ) I don't understand which is the only Problem . Would you help me at that when I send you the files?

Didn't know I could open it on my phone easily.
It looks like you used a nexus 5 marshmallow ROM as the base ROM, why?
If i am correct then fundamentally this can't work. You're updater script for the ROM is still for the nexus 5 too. It will fail on the first assertion.
In order to port correctly we should start with aosp for fire nexus ROM as the base then apply changes using the KitKat version of miui patchrom.

Oh sorry maybe I sent both the same files :/
One of them maybe edited. That's why they are different files.
I am too tired for looking that now. In Germany it is now half past 12 AM
I took the Nexus 5 because of almost the same Hardware specs.

Hi Florian990107,
I think I was a bit tired last night too.
just for semantics:
base = the rom for our device
port = the MIUI rom you are porting from
What was your base ROM that you used?
What was your port ROM?
The base rom updater-script looks on the surface to be Amazon's with some firmware bits removed, this won't work as it has a lot of Amazon specifics which won't be present in your custom ROM providing you did not use FireOS as your base ROM.

- Yes the port ROM you linked is for Marshmallow, so this cannot work. The framework, apps and libs are not compatible with our kitkat rom.
- Also I think you will struggle to make FireOS boot with these modifications
- Better to take my AOSP or CM rom as your base
- Then if you are going to use the port rom method find a kitkat based MIUI rom.
