cifs? - G Pad 8.3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
According to this page if the path /proc/fs/cifs exists cifs may be supported by the kernel. I see this path. I dont understand the rest on this page, if someone could take a look at this - is it possible that we get cifs support for our pads? Thx.

[W O R K I N G] Kaiser-Buntu - Ubuntu on the HTC Kaiser (!UPDATED w/DL-links!)

Hello everyone,
I am happy to inform all those folks who waited for a full Linux operating system on the HTC Kaiser PDA that today a little bit modified version of Zubuntu finally booted successfully on my HTC Kaiser.
It is a really in the alpha-state but it works, let's see what do we have:
TouchScreen: works perfectly with calibration
Screen: looks good. but programs doesn't support Kaiser's small resolution. You can fix this by using INTERPOLATION, but this makes picture quality a lot worse. To try it out edit the default.txt, find the mddi.height and mddi.weight values and change to for example 480 and 360.
Keyboard: works exactly as expected, some fine tuning with the keyboard map will be done
ScreenRotating
Not tested/not working:
WiFi (MY #1 ISSUE, TRYING TO FIX): I extracted the wifi section from an Android rootfs, successfully modprobed wlan.ko, dmesg shows that the driver is loaded OK, but:
Code:
iwconfig
tiwlan0: no wireless extensions
ifconfig tiwlan0 up
ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCDIFADDR): Can't assign requested address
TI's WLAN_LOADER program didn't work either, so now I am moving to the other driver (wl12xx)
Bluetooth (Driver is there, no BT programs installed, couldn't test it)
3G
Cameras
Phone (NO dialer, nothing, however perhaps gsm-libs can help us firing it up)
Many many thanks goes for all these people form the #htc-linux IRC channel: randomblame, Markinus, ali1234, Ondalf and bombenbach for their outstanding support and help!
I would like to say thank you especially to phh for his awesome help and patience with me!

Stay tuned for: hopefully working WiFi, screnshots, YouTube-demonstration.
If you are interested, want to say thank you, want to help, or have an idea how to fix some things please write into this topic.
Also if you like my work, please consider a little a donation for me
After all, I am pretty sure now you want to try this on your own too, so here is the link for the Google-Code website. Download all the files and read the Wiki to know what to do.

Would it be destructive to flash it to nand at this point in the project?
I wouldn't count on it even remotely fitting on the NAND. Besides, you'll probably have to have half the apps on an SD card anyway...
how about a build that will work with the new nomorootfs installers so hose of us like me can try it without going back to winmo, Would like to install to ext2.img files or sdcard partitions.
And is this remotely close to the MER Linux build that progress seems to be halted on I was able to get it to work
working XWindow?
I wouldn't recommend installing it to NAND (it doesn't work so good, for example I didn't have time to test power/suspend).
Xwindows works perfectly (except the resolution issue).
DOMy
resolution issue. can you please explain that? (whats wrong in resolution) before i flash back to ,WM and try it

The problem is that the rootfs is not for the Kaiser and the Xserver uses some hardcoded resolution (that means there is no config file for it) so circa half of the windows are too big for the screen. It is not a big problem because you can move them around so it is easy to get to one of the corners and resize them so you can see the whole thing at once.
Fixing this is on my To-Do list
sorry for the dumb question but...
will this support phone???
no mention in the OP.
I assume no. (for now anyway)

Driver support is there, but AFAIK no frontend yet.

mod: I found this: http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/comm/gsm-utils and this http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/gutsy/man8/gsmctl.8.html perhaps I will try it later (or someone can try it and report)
This intrigues me muchly, but why ubuntu/debian based?
There are other, (and imho simpler), bases to build on, slackware springs to mind, and there are some tiny distros out there, which may also be worth looking at, to say nothing of the likes of Familiar, an interesting candidate for a non-android htc-linux.

We've never supported VPN's. If there's some way to make them work, we will gladly implement the code. As always, patches welcome.

First, if I knew it would already be patched lol. Second, I don't have any VPN to test with - so you're going to have to tell us what needs patched. It seems like a userland issue, but I honestly don't know. Perhas some kernel module is missing? Again, I don't know for sure. I don't have any way to test it, and I think that's the problem most have - they have no way of testing VPN, and I think most probably use OpenVPN if it's in their home. At work, it's probably mostly PPTP.
So if you find something to patch, please submit it. If you can't... well then we just won't be able to support VPN's. Pretty minor feature, but I'm sure it would be nice for some.

If by "we" you mean me, no. I'm no expert on the matter of deciphering logs and determining what exactly needs to be fixed. I can usually pinpoint problems, but pinpointing exactly which element needs fixing... I'm pretty new to.
In my horrible estimation, these three lines are where it starts going badly:
Code:
09-04 10:27:28.770 I/vpnagent( 1847): Function: scanAvailableModule File: PluginLoader.cpp Line: 745 Scanning plugin libvpncommoncrypt.so
09-04 10:27:28.770 W/vpnagent( 1847): Function: STGetProcAddress File: HModuleMgr.cpp Line: 263 Invoked Function: dlsym Return Code: 0 (0x00000000) Description: Symbol not found:
09-04 10:27:28.770 E/vpnagent( 1847): Function: scanAvailableModule File: PluginLoader.cpp Line: 783 Invoked Function: CHModuleMgr::STGetProcAddress Return Code: -33554427 (0xFE000005) Description: GLOBAL_ERROR_NULL_POINTER
The "Scanning plugin libvpncommoncrypt.so" portion really interests me. Does this lib exist? Have you been able to find perhaps another version of it? I know very little about VPN's... never had the desire to use one on a phone. I don't even use 'em on computers really... my office has a VPN that requires a PC, and is far from a 'traditional' VPN.
Looking further thru the log, it seems the app is just going thru libs. It would appear we're either missing these libs, or the libs we have aren't playing nicely. I keep seeing the same "Symbol not found" errors... I'm betting we simply don't have the right libs for this type of VPN app.
thank's
I will try in this direction.

Kernel modifying

Hi
I have asked this before but I haven't gotten the answer and some things have changed.
My goal is to edit the kernel of my device to include rtl8192cu driver.
I have the sources from http://gitgub.com/puresoul/android_kernel_lge_d605 (I hope I got the link right) I am currently stuck at creating the .config file and getting the right files to include the driver. Could anyone help me out, any links to tutorials that actually tell me how to? The guides online are almost all specific to a certain device or their goal is different.

[Q] Init.d support for 32.4.A.0.160

Hey everyone.
Can someone please tell me how to enable init.d support without magisk on 32.4.A.0.160 firmware, xperia z5 premium e6833. I am using ta poc+SuperSu arrangement and want to use some init scripts.
Regards
Adil
Isn't there anyone using init.d with SuperSU?
Well then can someone then please tell me how to use service.d or post-fs-data.d scripts. I have tried to use it but
1) In service.d, mounting scripts don't work or may be i am doing something wrong, do point out the error. I am just creating scripts and putting them in magisk/.core/service.d folder with permission 0755.
2) I have no idea how to use post-fs-data.d. I read somewhere that magisk runs those post-fs-data scripts that are included in the modules only and not the individual scripts themselves.
Please tell me how to run my scripts through any of these ways.
Regards
Adil
P.S: Don't just view the thread, try to help others, I mean that's why we all are here right! To learn...
I'm not sure why no one is answering or helping around here. Personally, I don't know how to help you. so I'm sorry. I may suggest asking in the Android general chat, not specifically this phone series. as even my own question has fallen on deaf ears. I found answers on other sites instead and am following on with those sites.
the Z5p seems to have become a bit of a graveyard now since anyone able or willing to develop for it has moved on to other devices, I've even looked into building myself but I need a more powerful computer so i'm stuck with what i'm able to find online.
I hope you figure out what you need to, to sort your problems. but my advice would be to not limit yourself to just one device forum. the question you ask is an android related question, not just for the model of phone you use. at least this is how I think it is. I could be wrong.
but if there is no one here to answer your question, i don't see any issue with the question being brought up in a forum with a wider reach.

QNX based infotainment systems and navigation apps

Hello,
I'm actuallty working on Ford's SYNC3 system which is based on QNX 6.50. I have full access to it and would like to modify the navigation system. Actually, the system uses either Telenav (for EU and NA maps) or NNG (for rest of the world). None of those two systems is really satisfying as they are closed source and don't allow much modifications.
Therefore, I would like to build (compile) or port another system; preferably open source.
First I thought of osmand which is open source but I was told that QNX doesn't have everything needed to port it. Now I wonder if Navit : www navit-project org could be compiled for QNX.
So I would appreciate if anybody could help me / give me some info on it.
Regarding closed source apps, I saw that some car brands using QNX run Tomtom. But I can't find anything regarding an SDK for this.
Thanks in advance for all your help / hints.
Maybe it is not appropriate to ask here.. But it seems you have already give up your another thread.
I'm also on to that SYNC3 system, but I only got a update image that I dont know how to extract. Can you tell me how you extract that image?
It seems like QNX6 filesystem but I failed to mount it. I downloaded the files you posted in your another thread, and carved binaries from my own image, the files seems to fit.
Sorry I can't help you about your problem, and sorry for the interrupt, but I really need some help and find nowhere to ask. Thanks.

Hi stang18, I wish I had knowledge on the topic and could help you, but I can't.
I'm very interested if you could elaborate on how you gained full access to the SYNC 3 system.
I would much appreciate it and I believe the people from this thread would also be interested:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/connected-car/ford-sync-3-shell-access-t3707308
Thank you so much and I hope someone will be able to help you too.
Well I just noticed that the thread I added above was yours to begin with and seems you've managed to get all the access you wanted.
I'd be very happy if you could share the procedure of how you managed do it.
Thanks!
