Develop Bugs

Android (Working... well kinda... )

Hey devs,
So according to this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2084090&posted=1#post2084090
It is possible to port the android platform on 7500... And I had though 7200 and 7500 are essentially same except for different carriers... So I was wondering if anybody can find a similar approach installing android on the kaiser...
PROOF of workign: http://ustream.tv/recorded/MCvuInWZtruJojC4h2HqiAUyBKjIDFx4
It didnt work for me when I tried it from SD either... Remember I used AT&T Tilt ROM... i want to hear if this works on other ROMS...
Oh and if it freezes after haret is done loading... then it is probably that u do not have A LOT OF space on ur main memory... So do a clean up and a clean boot up before u run this... remember, we're just emulating it right now... oh and its seems pretty fast after its loaded... of course, I am only judging this by the one thing I can do i.e. bring up the wallpaper setting dialog usign the OK button beside the DPad...

OMG it works...
No buttons.. OK buttons puls up some wallpaper setting.. but it loads in LINUX, terminating WM..
People try it out... You DONT have to flash ur phone to use it... You might have to soft reset it to quit since buttons dont work... ... im trying something to get buttons working...
EDIT: Btw, I am using AT&T Test ROM for now... was just testing it... It might work better with Dutty's ROM... Please let me know if any progress is found ...

You are able to get this to work on the Kaiser? I freeze after the HaRET finished loading. Are you running this from the SD card or from main memory? This is quite a shock to hear of a working android on the kaiser because uptil now there hasn't even been a working liunx version on the kaiser!
Please share with us any details that you think might help us to reproduce this!

So confirmation it works on Kaiser? This vector would be more productive than sitting on our asses waiting for hardware-drivers from HTC/Qualcomm.

Yes, Please, or at least some type of proof or something!

LOL but this is jsut the beginning... This jsut tells us android is capable of running... so when ANDROID is actually released/unofficially released, we can port it on here... Because originally it was thought android wud not run on kaiser...

Proof posted ... now to soft reset to get work done
Oh and update... I tried to instead chnage the script to run a different initrd... one from actual SDK, but that was around 33 MB... and haret.exe complained it can only run images <= 25MB or so... So If anyone can get the latest SDK imaged and get it running... please post instructions...

Im not having any luck with this with Eclispe on Ubuntu Hardy Heron. Anyone else have the sdk running at least? I do, just cant get it to make the image without having dependency issues.

[Q] Couple of newbie questions :)

Phk said:
Greetings fellow Friends from Galaxy
I just moved myself from the HTC Magic section to this one.. It was quite a jump, the Galaxy S Camera and 4inch screen are AWESOME =)
I have a few noob questions that I don't want to spread through many posts, so i've chosen to get them all here, without polution this forum section. Also they might come in handy for future Galaxy S buyers!
My phone is: 2.1-update1 @ I9000XXJF5
Question #1
Well at first glance everyone's trying to fix the "LAG PROBLEM"... I haven't noticed any lag!! What are we talking about? If its a fix.. i want it too
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
the lag problem does not accure instantly after startup, it takes a while to do so.
Question #2
The phone came with Android 2.1, but at samsung-firmwares.com and at this dev section of the forum, i saw the JP3 Froyo release. How stable is this? Is it already a daily driver or a total beta? As an Android lover, i'd love to have the latest
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
this release is, lets say, alpha quality, however some do use it daily and seems to be stable so far, but the jit is broken, so dont expect it to be faster than eclair
Question #3
I've used the One Click rooting solution and then the ROM Manager Clockwork to boot into clockwork rom and make a full-system backup. In my HTC Magic i had the recovery ROM (Amon_RA) flashed into the internal phone memory, so even if i didn't have a ROM installed, i was ALWAYS able to boot into recovery. That was a safety plus. How can i flash the Clockwork Recovery directly to my phone, without the ROM Manager? I'd feel more secure if i could count on recovery even if, for example, i flashed a non-working system ROM.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
you can run the clockwork recovery from original recovery by simply running it´s update.zip, this does in fact load the clockwork recovery into memory
Question #4
So what is YOUR favourite ROM? My stock has some unwanted apps, and even worse, it's Eclair. I'd like to switch soon, but i don't know these Galaxy S ROMs Tell me what's the best ROM for you!
Thanks guys, XDA is indeed the #1 place for mobile stuff
Cheers

If JIT is broken, the rest of new 2.2 features can be achieved through Market tools... I'll stick to 2.1 then. By the way, where's a CLEAN 2.1 Rom? this one has lots of service-provider tools... They suck.

Now That's a fix! So i just have to keep my update.zip of Clockwork Rom in INTERNAL SD CARD so that anytime, anywhere, i just have to perform update.zip and the Clockwork will boot ONCE from RAM and them be cleared at next boot, right?

I've seen the fix but i'd like to understand if the bug exists in every kernel, since is a file-system related bug.

I dunno about you but HACKECLAIR surfaced the day I got my phone so I thought it might be destiny, or you know just a co-incidence.

Give it a try, it clears out the stock rubbish and leaves it in a folder on ur sd card to install later if you need it.

[REQUEST]Hybrid R4 Final > AOSP Clone <

Hello,
Is there any chance we will see Eugene's AOSP Vibrant ROM on our I9000 Froyo ?
It would be what a lot of us are looking for in a while.
Link to Eungene's ROM : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=773018

The vibrate version is fully functional on I9000,
Use odin to flash JM9 first, the apply the ASOP on top. Very nice rom and the fastest for SGS, apps open instantly.

He did ask for a Froyo version though

Was not aware that this can be used with 2.1
Maybe I will give it a try
@DocRambone: I saw that you asked Eugene on how to optimize his ROM for I9000. What about porting this to 2.2 ?
I will buy you lots of beer.
Thanks

do the download and recovery keys stay in the same place if you put this rom on?

The port to froyo is a monumental task, and well above my skills.

Well, I am not rich enough for a truck, but I can give a pack or two
EDIT: I am currently flashing to JM9 with JM7 modem and CSC, then will apply R4. By any chance are you aware how to remove Vibrant logo at boot ?

what thas it mean can we put this rom in our i90000 with no trouble and the other rom like bionix?could we put them in there?

Dont know about bionix, but as Doc said, it should work with JM9. As said, I will flash and try and let you know the result. Fingers crossed.

Jm9 and this excellent rom is ok, i use it right now.
There is a bug tho:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8702548&postcount=964

thks doc which one are u using 2.2?ive u try the bionix one on your i9000

This ASOP r4 is not froyo, its 2.1 rom. Make sure that the rom you take from Vibrate forum don't include kernel or modem.. or you may brick your phone otherwise

So wat exactly do you need to do in odin after flashing JM9 with the zip file from the vibrant forum and the freezing fix?

Install jm9, factory reset, install the Hybrid r4Asop, use rootmangager (or other filemanager or adb) to put the playslogo file in system/bin

When you install the Hybrid r4Asop rom, do you use the normal recovery or something else?

I use clockwork recovery.

ok, thanks. Will give it a shoot and report back.

Ok, have a problem. Flashed JM9 and now my SIM card does not accept PIN. It constantly staying at unlocking SIM card... Any idea ?

This rom is so bloody fasttt on my i9000 im loving it right now omgsh orgasm*

Indeed very very fast... Too bad my SIM does not get unlocked. Its useless to me

WOW ! Is great to hear that someone working hard for GSM Android NAND

Means NAND that the device boot directly in Android on the SD-Card and not in WinMob or means it that Android replaces WinMob on the ROM?

it replaces WinMob with Android on the ROM

That's what I wanted to hear.
If it'll work fine I'll donate some to the dev.

Guys, wouldn't it be respectful to link to tiad8's page instead of just straight to the files? He might not take offense but it just seems like good manners... He has put up a new website. Please be a good citizen and go there too and register instead of just throwing his stuff all over the place.
On a side note, the thing that is exactly the same between the tiad8 builds and other builds is that whatever the dev/builder/chef says is ready is what is ready.
So if you read the info file... There's not a word about Blackstone yet, a lot of stuff-available-in-other-builds is still missing. So once again patience is virtue, and if i have any idea about the guy it's that he's losing sleep trying to get all this stuff working as soon as humanly possible.

agreed, i do respect what he has contribute for us bringing good working ROM and NAND for in time to come and he wanted to share and treat every dev, tester and those who contribute and involved of porting ROMs as a family. this is his interest

Herrickwong, Hasn't HYC always made all of his changes open and available for all to see? You should be able to find all of his commits.

As I understand it, NAND has been using their own hacked up RIL, they haven't adopted mine yet.
