Has anyone been able to build this kernel from the p8000_defconfig ?
I've tried to build it with linaro, but failed (I'm a newbee though).
i have ordered the phone. have to wait 3-4 weeks ...i will start developing for it soon
that's great news! can't wait

Sounds great, I'm gonna do the same as soon as I get my device. Should be around 26th August - perhaps we could collaborate sometimes!
Greetz to Muenster - I grew up in Soest, lol

Tried to build the kernel as well. The sources seem to be incomplete, though. I'm pretty sure the MT6753 platform specific sources are missing. But might just be my lack of experience...

I was actually expecting some problems - we're still talking about MediaTek. What error message do you get?

I don't remember. I think there were missing dependencies. So I tried to use the provided build.sh and there was a reference to ../mediatek/build/shell.sh. Google lead me to this git-repo: https://github.com/wiko-sources/cink-slim ; I figured we might need the same folder structure for the MT6753.
I succeeded in building the Kernel with the aarch64-linux-android-4.9 toolchain and the p8000_defconfig.
To make it work, I only had to do a few minor changes:
-The p8000_defconfig file somehow has a trailing whitespace... I don't quite get why there is a whitespace there, but this isn't really a problem
-A few of the files in drivers/misc/mediatek have a few include errors. Mostly <> was used instead of "" to reference a local header file, changing this fixed all but one problem.
-In drivers/misc/mediatek/dispsys/mt6735/ddp_dsi.h there is a reference to "fbconfig_kdebug_k2.h". But the referenced file is not in the same directory. Changing the include to "../../videox/mt6735/fbconfig_kdebug_k2.h" did the trick.
Sadly, the Phone is not there yet so I couldn't test anything and I'm also a newbie concerning Android development. But I hope this might help someone.

I can't get it to boot at all. How did you do it? Do we need to add the meditek kernel-header?
I had a quick look at the sources - there seems to be a lot of stuff in there that is definitely not needed on the P8000. Different architectures and drivers for components that are not present in the P8000. Is this some kind of generic kernel they use in different configurations for all their phones?

Using abootimage tools for upgrading kernel in the original boot.bin file.
abootimg -u boot.img -k P8000-Kernel/arch/arm64/boot/Image.gz-dtb

Thanks, I'll try that.
So it might be a good idea to remove all the stuff that's not needed to keep the kernel and modules small... this is probably a lot of work though.

edit: problem solved, patch attached. i also made an update.zip with the new kernel, see here.
there is a vncserver for android out there. so far it works fine, but there is no keyboard or mouse control for the host (android). this being a kernel limitation it can be patched. unluckily for us the patch is available only for the magic kernel version 2.6.23, not for the hero kernel version 2.6.27. i would kindly ask all the developers out there to have a look at the links below, and at least comment about the possibility to "port" (don't know the right expression) the patch to the heros kernel, or teknologists version. i can do the compiling and testing myself, just need someone to have a look at the patch, this is way beyond my skills for now. just compiled the teknologist kernel successfully, as my first compiled kernel ever!
the vncserver project
the patch
htc kernel source
teknologist kerne git
thank you in advance.
i think i managed to apply the patch manually, once i looked into it it turned out that there where only a few lines in 3 files, plus one completely new file, so it seemed pretty easy. yet to be tested, but first i figure out why the kernel won't boot at all, not even with teks sources...
so stay tuned for the kkernel, with full vnc support!

I thought Tek's kernel was based on the GSM hero kernel, not the CDMA one, which might be one of the reasons.

uhm, i have only the gsm hero, no cdma in germay...
anyway, i forgot the --base 0x19200000 in my script, so the boot.img was faulty. it is working now, fbvncserver recieves keyboard inputs, but mouse does not do anything
maybe i can figure that out somehow, already posted in google code of the project.
i will release an update.zip this afternoon, containing the kernel and fbvncserver for easy installation, but now i gotta get some sleep

There's a fork of android-vnc that works without patching, android-vnc-server (both kbde and touch events).

lol although it makes my work on the patch completely obsolete it sounds really good. i will look into that this evening, thanks for the hint.
nevertheless, it was interesting to find out how kernel-compiling and cross-compiling works, i actually had fun doing it
too bad, doesn't work for me
console output shows that keys are received, but no action

It seems like OmniROM is also coming for the R819. It's the new project from Xplodwild, Chainfire & Entropy512 (and more). Would be GREAT !!!

Hi XploDWilD
I have a question regarding whether this project is only for r819 device or it will support other dual sim devices ?!
I have samsung galaxy S4 I9502 dual sim and it would be nice if it gets an Omni rom.

XploDWilD is working on mkt devices, if you have a *genuine* Samsung Galaxy S4 you can fin roms for it, it has an exynos processor, so it´s easy supported by distributions.
do you have a clone instead?
i took to long for waiting omni rom or cyanogen for this devices... good devices but lack of rom resources...
Hello!
I've been flashing ROMs for a while and I'm getting interested in development. While there are many guides for how to flash ROMs, etc. I couldn't find any post explaining how to begin if you want to become a dev.
Through some googling, there is useful information, but its dispersed, and I think it would be awesome if someone creates a beginner's guide in our SXS forum.
Things that should be covered in my opinion:
-how to help devs by reporting bugs (how to do it right?)
-understand android
-well how to develop?
I would do such a guide by myself, but I don't I think that I know enough about it.
I would really really appreciate help, as I think this will be very useful for any beginner. I'm not a native speaker, so apologise for any errors...

I suggest starting with kernels
Try learning to add some changes (cpu OC/aditional patches , govenors and schedulers)
Then once you've mastered kernel editing then look for some of the Cyannogenmod Guides to building for your device
Once you've mastered that then well, you can develop anything that is coded in C anything based on C
First, thanks!
So basically I should start learning C? Do you have some websites which you can recommend me? (Beside Cyanogenmod's...)

Apart from websites, please do read Head First C and C: The Programming Language by Dennis Ritchie and Brian Keringhan. They are good books:thumbup:
And once you've got a good hang of the language, check out Linux Kernel Development by Robert Love. It's an awesome book.
Good luck

umm according to me learning C is important but it comes later..Before that you need to understand the following
1. Linux- When i started out, i had no idea how a linux system works and naturally half the time went in learning about it( Now i love it..)
My suggestion : try to install a linux based distro..i would suggest ubuntu...If you dont want to install another OS then just install virtualbox and install Ubuntu 12.04 or 13.04 and try to mess around with it..
2. Android- If you know a bit about linux then this will get simplified....you will know what a kernel means and how the partitions are different from Windows,why we root our devices,what is open source etc..
3-Next is your choice: You wanna build a ROM,a kernel,a tool is all upto you...first thing will naturally be getting the source...i agree with envious_data here...first try with building a kernel...you will learn loads...my suggestion...first build a kernel without tweaking anything.....i.e. stock kernel...then add tweaks and build(this is the time you'll need a bit of knowledge about C)
I can help you with one thing...if you wanna know a bit more about android then i had written a small guide here a few days back..
Also i have compiled a tool containing a few utilities..which should get you started....but don't rely totally on the tool...study and use the tool simultaneously if you are using it...you can download it through my signature...first link...
have fun coding....

Actually I´m using Linux for a while now, and yes I love it, don´t want to use windows anymore. I also began some coding in C but anyway I was lacking a clear guide for where to begin. Maybe I should just begin building a kernel. I think the CyanogenMod Wiki explains that in a good way, doesnt it?
I´ll try your tool then, too! Thanks bro!

I know various camera problems have been discussed but I have not seen any solutions. I have Eragon 6.5.1 and I am using the "Open Camera" app as the primary camera (I like it) which is built in to the ROM. My banking app allows me to e-deposit cheques but I find when trying to capture images the autofocus usually does not work. I can sometimes get a clear image by taking a fuzzy shot, then discarding and trying again. The camera is great as a camera but it just seems autofocus refuses to kick in on my banking apps. The banking apps app work like a charm on other phones and it seems I am reduced to using my old phone to do my banking while my shiny new P8000 sits on the desk and watches. Suggestions please.
This is a bug with the kernel version shipped - I forgot to set some flags there. Use my kernel or go back to stock and it will work. This is actually my fault :/

Sorry, I am a little confused, I am on Eragon rom 6.5.1 and kernel is reported by phone as 3.10.65. I previously had the Eragon beta build which included your kernel (dt2w is nice) but I believe the official 6.5.1 has reverted to the stock kernel so therefore I would not experience the third party camera bug would I ? Or does the current Eragon 6.5.1 flash somehow retain the bug, ( I use Philz recovery clean to install new rom function)?

If @skeleton1911 didn't remove it Eragon ships with a custom visi0nary's kernel I compiled for him (and which unfortunately contains a bug I don't have time to fix now...). The original visi0nary's kernel doesn't have this bug though.

Yep. In my latest v6.5.1 Rom i have removed it again because of that bug and fingerprint issue. V6.5.1 has the stock kernel on board.
Bluiis48 we already talked about it in my thread [emoji14]

Yes, my apologies, I had posted the question in the general Q & A section, before I was allowed to post in this section and BlueFlame4 responded today so I thought that it may be some new advice. I will give up on this issue and use my old Riv R55 with the "tiny" 8mp camera that does work for me.
Again, much appreciate your time and the huge effort you put in to this rom.

Thanks for the input, may I ask what banking app you are using ? My camera also focuses pretty well when used as just a camera but the problem is in apps that use the camera for image capturing such as depositing a cheque electronically within a bank app.
Hi All,
I'm new to LOS and have a basic question. How often should I update? I was taught don't mess with anything that ain't broken!
Now if I wait too long, for example, updating from 17.1 to 18.x one of these days, would the built-in updater still be able to do a seamless update, or would I end up reinstalling everything for such a big jump? Seamless for me means I can flash the new one over the old one in TWRP without a wipe, and all my config would remain and apps still work!
Any thought is highly appreciated. Thank you

Hard to say...
For me... mor or less once a month with security patches. Or I see interesting changes.
And only to next version if at "known bugs" is nothing which stops me at daily usage and only if it os "official"

Do you just install the new one over the old one and the LOS built-in updater would sort it out without wiping the old installation? Thanks

Yes normally that works pretty fine, just be sure if your using magisk, there are modules which can cause problems in that process

Is it as simple as turning them off before the update and turning them back on afterward? Or should I uninstall these modules first and reinstall them afterward? Thanks
