Change of plans, hopefully with the help of anyone who is willing I'd like to compile an aosp build for the Sprint GS2 from source instead of trying to hack a port together, as suggested in this thread and other places, it just feels like it will be a lot more of a fruitful experience for all involved and have a better end result.
(a big thank you to everyone who so far have been super encouraging and friendly with noob questions, it's much appreciated!, I hope that if you wanted to help with the port you'll help with this build as well!)
This is a WIP. Starting out with Samsung's open source platform and kernel instructions on how to build from aosp and I'll take it from there.
I've setup some repos to get this all started in one place:
Samsung SPH-D710 platform source - https://github.com/thefredelement/sph-d710_platform_source
Samsung SPH-D710 kernel source - https://github.com/thefredelement/sph-d710_kernel_source
Team Hacksburg kernel source - https://github.com/thefredelement/android_kernel_samsung_c1spr
Stock kernel initramfs (thanks buddy323!) - https://github.com/thefredelement/stock-initramfs-eg30-epic-4g-touch
https://github.com/thefredelement/Samsung-Galaxy-S2-Sprint-Epic-4G-Touch-AOSP-Build - will be where the build will live after I push over Samsung's platform make and upload it!
--- old stuff that will make your head spin ---
If anyone wants to continue working on this, feel free.
This is my attempt to get get a pure aosp build of android 2.3.5 for the Sprint Galaxy S2. I've never done anything like this before and it's mostly hacked together pieces of two different ROMs. I guess you can call this a "learning" experience.
THIS ROM JUST BOOTS AND NOTHING ELSE REALLY WORKS, THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS AND I POSTED IT HERE TO SEE IF ANYONE CAN HELP, THIS IS NOT A DAILY DRIVER, NOT EVEN CLOSE.
THIS HAS ONLY BEEN RUN ON MY PHONE, EVERYTHING IS FINE ON MY PHONE AND I CAN RESTORE A NANDROID BACK TO STOCK AND EVERYTHING STILL WORKS FINE BUT I MAKE NO GUARANTEES FOR YOUR PHONE. IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING I WOULD STOP READING NOW
This rom is based on AdamG's devnull-test aosp rom for the Euro Galaxy S2. (post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1183063)
Credit must be given to AdamG for his rom in the first place, bubby323 for his help on IRC and kpkimmel at ACS for the Gerbal V1 beta ROM (post: http://www.forums.acsyndicate.net/showthread.php/2734-ROM-Gerbal-v1-beta-ROM) which I used for guidance for the build.prop and updater script.
I am not trying to steal anyone's work or take credit for anything, I really just want a pure AOSP rom for the Sprint GS2 and would love anyone's help as far as guidance, code, a guide I haven't found, anything would be great, thanks.
Known bugs:
- No radios
- No Wifi
- When wifi is on (or trying to turn on) the screen turns on/off as if a process is restarting
- Orientation sensor is out of whack (disable auto rotate so it doesn't drive you crazy)
- Home button & search button do not work
- Something FCs real fast on first boot but android setup starts
- Distortion on the touch screen occasionally
Known positives:
- No real FCs
- I added the Nexus S boot animation
- Calculator, gallery, etc. all work fine
What I've done so far:
Based on buddy323's advice in IRC, I've brought over vendor, firmware, wifi, vold, egl and hw from the Gerbal v1 rom to the devnull rom.
I used the wipe partition section of the Gerbal update script and then the symlinks/permissions from the devnull script (I removed the kernel installation as this rom doesn't come with a kernel). My approach has been to go through as much as I can on devnull and change out anything that's platform specific to the sph-d710.
I'm sure there's a bunch of noob happening in this rom and I'd appreciate it if you can call me out on it and tell me where to look to make it right.
Installation:
Install via clockworkmod, this will wipe /system /data so I'd erase your user data before flashing.
I've been booting this with the stock kernel.
Link: you don't want this...
Reserved for changelog, when hopefully it gets that far
Awesome to see a project like this, good luck in the port!

Constructive criticism would be for me to point out you must not have read the OP because it clearly said nothing works because we don't have a aosp kernel yet but you are just rude.

You are under no obligation to install anything posted on XDA. If it doesn't work, report. If you don't like it, don't use it. Help, don't hinder. If you have nothing to contribute, then sit down, shut up and wait for someone to do it and allow you to participate. It's that simple folks.
Now keep this on topic or infractions and/or mandatory vacations will be handed out.
I would highly recommend you get to grips with the aosp source and learn to build them for the device instead of cobbling a mix of aosp and stock Samsung roms together. You will also need an aosp compatible kernel and stock kernel is not. There is a list of patches to the aosp kernel in the SGS2 section and on team hacksung's github. Good luck.

I recall rumor about samsung sending a GS2 to Cyanogen so that he could "get to work". Guess that never materialized - or they gave him something else to do once they hired him...

it was one of the cyanogen devs that got a galaxy2 & they have nightlies for the gs2 now.... It should not be hard to get it ported over

-------------------------Warning!-------------------------------------
This ROM is for SGS4A (int'l) ONLY. Does not work on SGS4 from AT&T as it has a locked bootloader.
Please refer to this thread for a bounty on the bootloader.
-------------------------Please note---------------------------------
This is an experimental build of CyanogenMod 10.2 running Android 4.3.
Meaning there's a couple of known issues with the camera. It is my hope these will be sorted out over time.
If anyone has any interest in helping out, please PM me. Or simply fork the code if you want.
-------------------------Instructions---------------------------------
Install CWM recovery from here.
Download most recent ROM from here.
Download most recent Google Applications for Android 4.3 from here.
Boot into recovery by holding the Volume Up button as the phone is booting.
Back up your current ROM inside CWM recovery.
Flash CyanogenMod ROM to your device using CWM recovery.
Flash Google Applications to your device using CWM recovery.
Do a wipe data/factory reset from within CWM recovery.
Reboot system
---------------------------Known issues-----------------------------
Several camera functions such as HDR don't work.
---------------------------Build from source------------------------
Please consult this guide for setting up CyanogenMod for compile.
Please use
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm-10.2
when you initialize the CyanogenMod repository so you get the source for CM-10.2.
Download roomservice.xml (see below) and put in ~/android/system/.repo/local_manifests/.
Run 'repo sync' and compile with 'brunch jactiveltexx'. You can get the proprietary files from the ROM.
As always, I take no responsibility in case your phone blows up.
And thanks to the CM team for all their hard work.

This is not something you should install unless you want to be compiling and debugging yourself. It's far from usable as day to day rom. I hope I'm clear on that.
Fixed wifi and a number of small issues. Should be a lot more stable. Seems the main remaining issue is, not surprisingly, the camera. If anyone knows how the entire camera driver setup is supposed to work in android, I'd love some help

Call it just a hunch. But have you tried the camera drivers from the s3 ? I would say that it's basically the same camera and has been added in s4 active because after 1 year it became very cheap to continue manufacturing and this way compensate for the more expensive case and water proofing.

Honestly, not exactly sure how the setup is. I assume it's mostly in some proprietary libs separate from the kernel, but it's hard to find good information on it.

Building from source
Hi,
I'm happy to see such great progress already, and am only diving in to this because I'd like to be able to lend a hand in any way I can.
Is it too soon to be asking questions about how to build for 10.2? I'm having a go at it right now, and if I use Lejay's kernel and device configuration (jactivelte), the kernel fails to compile, something about BUG_ON rcu error, I can come back to that if its relevant. So I tried Epsylon3's suggestion to use tpruvot's kernel and device config. This builds a rom, but black screen, can't see anything or get into adb. If I flash Lejay's kernel over the top of my 10.2 build, it boots. Phone (dialer) keeps force closing in a loop, which is annoying, but asides from that it seems to boot.
Keep up the good work, can't wait to get some 10.2 love.

Comparing the 9295 and 9505 kernels, there's quite a lot of differences. Cyanogenmod tried to merge the two, but apparently gave up. The question is really if we should start with the 9505 and add the camera or start with the 9295 and make it compatible for CM. The stuff i uploaded here is a port of the 9505 kernel, but now I'm looking into starting out with the 9295 kernel instead.
The problem with 10.2 is of course there's no released 9295 kernel for android 4.3. I'm guessing there are not that many differences, so it might not be too hard.
I think I'm getting the same compile error you were with 10.2. Not sure what it means.
Are you going to try to make CM 10.2?

I had a chat with noobnl about it, and he pointed out a patch on gerrit: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/44552/
I spent hours manually merging it with cm jf kernel, to finally end up with a kernel that gives me. You guessed it, a black screen. After investing about a days worth of effort into it, I ended up with a buggy unstable CM10.2 build, that will boot if I flash LeJay's kernel zip, but its unuseable. It's going to take some serious effort to come up with a functioning CM10.2 kernel for the International S4 Active. In the meantime, a CM10.1 build with a non functioning camera, is still way better than the stock TouchWiz rom, so I'm happy. :laugh:
Ok, I got bored and had another play around with 10.2 and the CM jf kernel. With the black screen problem, if you power the device down, then boot into recovery (power + vol up), you can adb pull /proc/last_kmsg and it tells an interesting story. It looks like the init scripts are totally borked. init.qcom.rc and init.carrier.rc are completely missing. I tried simply copying them into the root, but it looks like its a bit more complicated than that. The problem is clear that it is unable to mount /system for whatever reason, because it can't find /system/bin/sysinit, then pretty much gives up after that.
This looks like a pretty simple problem for a relatively experienced device maintainer, or rom kernel dev to be able to fix. It would be nice if we could get some more developer attention for this device.

You probably forgot to add jactivelte to the list at the bottom of device/jf-common/Android.mk. I didn't want to fork their repo just to add one word on a line, so you have to do this manually. It's probably also a good idea to extract rom files from a cm.10.2 rom for something like jfltexx.

FuguMod is a secure, open, reliable and no nonsense kernel
This is probably the only custom kernel for the Nexus 5 which adds security instead of removing it.
Current features are:
- compiled with linaro gcc4.7.4
- various small fixes
You can download the kernels at:
http://fugumod.org/nexus5
Source and changelog can be found here:
https://github.com/renaudallard/nexus5_kernel
IRC channel:
irc.freenode.net #fugumod
Flashing
Kernel zips are intended to be flashed with CWM ot TWRP, if you want to flash using fastboot, you need to unpack the zip and flash the boot.img which is inside
Versions
Kernels are based on the below version scheme
kernel_FuguMod_20131104_r1-4.4.img
20131104 is the date it has been packaged
r1 is the release number
4.4 is the ROM it is compatible with
Stable vs Testing
There are sometimes kernels in testing folder. These may be very stable or may not boot at all. Be sure to have an USB cable and fastboot under the hand if you try one of these. That said, in general, if they stay into testing folder for more than 15 min, they should at least boot and work more or less. I tend to remove non booting kernels from testing folder in less than 10 min (depending a little bit on the speed testers take them), and so if you see them one hour later, you should assume they are safe enough to flash.
So, in general Stable is the safest bet, but Testing may be the best. I, myself, generally run testing one.
Deprecated folder
In general, unless you really know what you are doing, you should avoid flashing those, they are mainly there for historical reasons.
Check for vulnerabilities
http://www.xray.io
Compatibility with hackish style apps
All apps which require direct memory write, access to symbols or memory offsets or modules will NOT work. And, no, don't ask they won't be supported in the future. Example: Arararagi's light is only provided as a module and will not be supported unless he produces a patch.
Security
If you want good security when your phone is stolen, in addition to encryption, don't forget to turn debugging off. Also, use enpasschanger to change your encryption password, any short PIN encryption can be cracked in a few minutes easily (for example, using my script at http://pastebin.com/Mdu06RZN)
Redistribution
As per GPL, you are authorized to redistribute this kernel with any of your custom ROMs provided you give out the source code like I do. You can link to my github in your distribution site.
However, if you modify the kernel yourself, whatever the modification is (compiling it yourself with a different compiler is a modification), you are not authorized to name it FuguMod, although you can credit me and tell the base comes from FuguMod but you cannot call the kernel itself FuguMod.

Hello @renaud.
It's really nice to find a lot of people coming from Galaxy Nexus to the Nexus 5. As the Galaxy Nexus is an oldie (yes, two years), there are less and less threads supported. I hope, you will still support the Galaxy Nexus - but also the Nexus 5, of course. Good to have you in here! :laugh:

I suppose you meant you flashed with fastboot.
Whatever, till how far does it go?
I am wondering, did you unpack the zip and flashed boot.img through fastboot, or did you flash the whole zip through fastboot??
I'm glad you got the new nexus because I've been waiting for your kernels for awhile now.

Thank you for confirming that it boots. Currently it has no features except being smaller than the stock one. I was waiting for the boot confirmation before developing.
Nice to see you again Renaud. Glad to be owning a device you're deving on again.
I have now received my N5. Real stuff will begin.
OK, thanks for some reporting as booting, but in fact it does not because my img doesn't support dtb yet.
Glad you got the phone and now hopefully fugukernel updater will work for this phone.

When the battery is lower than 15% the flashlight crashes the kernel in a way that doesn't allow me to restart the phone unless I take the battery out and put it back in, also no charging symbol appears on screen after crash while the phone is still shut down.
After hanging up some of the calls (I was the initiator of the hang up) I'm not able to turn the screen back on by simply pushing the power button on the right once, I have to do this several times until it succeeds.
The drop down menu (dragging from the top) which usually reveals the notifications (depends on the side you dragged from) doesn't display anything in the settings screen, I'm talking about the WiFi and Bluetooth and battery icon etc. are simply gone and I have to use the settings menu in order to get to some of the settings.
I can attach screenshot is needed, for now I simply attached the file you requested from /proc/last_kmsg
Since I can't post links this is the ID on pastie dot org: …/9648280
Besides that the phone is exceptionally fast and the battery drains much slower which is pleasantly surprising.
Thank you very much, if you think there's a better way to report bugs for the kernel please inform me.
Overall perfomance of this kernel is exellent. But battery life is really bad((
FK updater + FML rom + Samsung galaxy nexus
Hello guys,
I just bough the FK updater - it says - unsupported device is there any way I can fix this?
Or is it just that I have the lollipop rom installed?
maguro lollipop
Is there a version of fk compatible with the new betas of cm12 for galaxy nexus? Thanks
Hello. I need help very much. Need kernel update boot.img. My friend, a very good doctor, asked to reflash a tablet. 4core Nvidia Tegra 3 DNS/Pegatron 110G, 10", IPS, Android 4.03. It is the same hardware as Fujitsu STYLISTIC M532 (see link to support page in the attached file)
I need kernel update- a file boot.img for this device for JB 4.11
The tested procedure of reflashing for Pegatron is to update kernel by franco.kernel updater (FKU) and then update from SD card by M532 firmware pkg with corrected 07 byte. Unfortunately FKU is no more compatible with this device, FKU old versions cannot connect to server. I need kernel file boot.img for this device - there is a good utility from 4pda.ru that also can update kernel (You can find a link in the attached file). I made a backup and took a risk to flash M532 version 14405 without kernel update. Now it hangs after boot but ADB interface works and recovery mode works. So I can make kernel update or make a restore. I need boot.img.
Many thanks in advance.
Aby chance to support OnePlus 2?

Best Lean kernel version for note 3
davwman said:
My setup is something that needs a book to describe and how to get where I am. I don't use power save, I don't greenify, no uc, I do over clock and have a total of 190 apps which includes all essential system apps and my personal use apps. Think titanium backup and removing close to 175 apps that I never use. The only thing that is touchwiz on my phone is the dialer and calendar app as well as the camera.

Which kernel is the best out of the following 3. Lk 3.8, 3.8.1 or 3.12?
No problems with this Kernel. Anyone know when FauxSound will be included again?

Does this kernel support fast charge with trickster mod
Relatively new to ROMs etc. Started after the Samsung Note 3 4.4.4 upgrade borked my GPS. I play Ingress so GPS is critical. I found Dialler input string that made things better - temporarily only. It seemed to accumulate something that sent it downhill again after a couple weeks.
Unfortunately flashing the CM11 M8 didn't help and it totally borked my Dialler. I could answer calls but it would take a couple of minutes to get screen control back after the call, and forget about putting it into speaker mode - black screen. Meanwhile you had to hope the other person would hang up for you...
I installed a CM recovery and C-ROM and it kind of fixed the GPS problems - only kind of. And similarly for the phone calls. I know - who uses a phone to do phone calls right? But when you do, you want it to actually bloody work.
Unfortunately C-ROM seem to have bailed, and there's been zero contact for months.
So I'm looking at flashing Dirty Unicorns.
One thing I'm wondering before I start is, given the core system issues I've been having, should I install a different kernel? From what I've been able to read, it's the kernel that does the actual system interface, and the ROM is just the person-friendly front end. So perhaps the phone and GPS problems are kernel-related?
And if so, what one out of the files (there are a lot of them under the link) and how do I do that? Where does it fit into the flashing ROM sequence? I'm finding it pretty hard to find clear guidance on this.
Thanks for your help.

kernel lean run on lollipop beta ?
Hi I would like to know if the kernel lean run on lollipop beta ?
Deep Sleep with Bluetooth
Hello,
I was running CM11 M12 snapshot on my Note3 for a while and decided to flash lean kernel lk_hltecm-v3.16 . Right after the flash my phone wont go into Deep Sleep anymore if Bluetooth is enabled.
While it's enabled "msm_serial_hs_dma wakelock" is constantly running. When I disabled Bluetooth or flash back to the stock kernel everything is fine.
I even did a full wipe and flash of lk and the only app installed is Better Battery Stats and I still have the same issue.
Any ideas? I would love to use this kernel but it looks like this would kill my battery when my phone is not in use with Bluetooth enabled.
Thanks.

Hello cain i flash the 3.17 version on lollipop official TW?
Testing
Tested beta 4 earlier and loved it minus the sdcard issue. Everything worked on my n900t. Even my VPN and rdp apps that let me into my work servers worked as well as wifi calling...which is a must. Also all around fluidity was great. About to test beta 7. Looking forward to end results. Keep up the great work. I'll drop a reply and a log if I notice anything drastic that stands out but it looks like the finish line is close.
hello, does this kernel work with the exynos version of the note 3(sm-n900)? I'm using lollipop
Should I wipe dalvik cache before or after flashing the kernel or should I wipe cache and dalvik both before and after?
Has anyone else experienced an issue with moving the apps to sd following the update to 6.1 kernel? I flashed back to 6.0 and that function works ....maybe a bug of some sort?
