[ROM][WIP][5.0]Android L System Dump Port

Hey Peeps, I've been tinkering with the system dump and would like to cooperate on bringing Android L to the Galaxy Nexus, hopefully before code release we could have at least an operational/booting port/build
It Currently
--------------------
Reboots Back to Recovery, Kernel Boots, Build.prop is valid enough, fits currently in the GNex's System Partition fine
It Does Not
--------------------
Do Anything Else, last_kmsg and dmsg attatched
ROM Will State ShinyROM, i only used the binaries and installer zip from that
ROM is/Will be here! https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B9Wl2sHjHmR1SmlneHF0RGxVVE0&usp=drive_web
Mods, if this is too early/not enough to be in development threads, please go ahead and move me

+1 For quick start on this! I currently use toro so it is much appreciated. Just say if you need anything. :highfive:

I'm sorry, but did you even READ the post you quoted? it says "currently will reboot back to recovery"
so it's not really USABLE, but it's a START towards logs and figuring out what needs to be changed IF it can get to the point of boot& run

its awesome that you got it this far i tried to but it did what you said it rebooted into recovery thank you

Its stated as maguro for comparability with apps Verizon blocks, forgot I did that until now technically you can test it til it boots really on any Galaxy Nexus, you just won't gave data

What I've Deducted as of far
Kernel Needs Compiling, without source I dunno how to manage that
Init is trying to load KitKat based Binaries and not finding them due to renaming in L
Assuming theres a lot of Qualcomm Specific code here, as the CPU halts first before rebooting

^its possible but you need a skilled kernel dev. What I'm thinking (but I'm no dev) would be to decompile the n5 (android L) kernel, compare it to the n5 (kk) kernel, and apply similar changes to the gnex source and compile the kernel.
Just my 2 cents.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-nexus/general/porting-android-l-lpv81b-to-tuna-help-t2796203/page3

wouldn't it be possible to just port the systemui and some other stuff and get the material ui, lockscreen, notification pulldown and basically everything else you actually see, even if the performance tweaks and such aren't changed?

Why not just copy over some of the apps that make up the ui of L and edit the build prop so they act as if they are in an actual l installation?

I am actually currently working on this, and have run into a roadblock deciding which l libs to include. I hope to have it working by the end of July.

good luck, it would be fantastic to at least get a bit of a port before the official launch so we know what to expect kind of. and are you sure you mean July? That's like a week

also if you tell me what the libs are I can try and make a couple decisions for you

Yes, I do mean July (setting high goals), and thanks for the offer to help. When saying "libs," I an reffering to the files in /system/lib.

I could at least beta test so long as I am allowed to show it off to my friends
also, how is it coming so far? BTW I have the sprint galaxy nexus, so how hard is it to change it from verizon or gsm to sprint after you port them?

Thanks for keeping an interest. I have gotten it to boot he kernel, and the actual OS immediately crashes due to the all apks crashing at once I assume. I will continue working on the libraries, but I may give up and wait for the actual release to build a ROM if it continues to fail.

I've been working on this as well, from what I can tell, there are unmet dependencies in libc.so, and there are some additional libraries that were added in KK AOSP that don't seem to be in any of the roms I've checked so far, libunwind.so is the major one.

(WIP) ChamelonOS 4.4*

Optimus G Owners,
I am working on my first build from source. I noticed we didn't have an updated build of ChameleonOS 4.4 of this forum. I am fairly new to this and have a fully capable pc to build it from scratch. Problem is I need some help with building and some testers. So if your interested in a collaboration with this build please leave a comment or leave me a message.
I have in installed Python, Git and the Sdk and am working on Forks and Repos. If you know of any good sources or suggestion please feel free to leave the below .

Repo is in progress
should be a couple hours to finish downloading and about an hour to build will try first build on my phone to see if it boots. if so I will post a download link to try it out.

I'm up for testing. I use multiRom. That could either be a benefit to your testing or a downfall. I usually like to know and inform others that use Multi what any issues are.

well back to work, I hope I can get this Chameleon OS up and running I hope I will have it done by this evening.

Failure
First build was a failure. Trying for round two tonight need to figure out what's missing. Will check my sources tonight hopefully I can get this working. If not I will ask some question from the pros =)

Hi All
Need your support to add OMS support to this ROM
. I have does somebody know how to Clone / fetch the megers to my build ...
If someone know please comment so I can release the build tomorrow

ffs what is with the //word for word// copying now
one thing to build a rom using open source code, another entirely to copy an entire thread and change some words just enough to get past your teacher's plagiarism check.

As per the request and comments on RR thread i created a seperate thread for my build... To be frank yes copying was easy and i thougt of doing ..I have not spend much time in that lol.. Anyways I have not copied your build or work mate !!!

just to be clear, I never said nor insinuated that you copied my build, very difficult to do that anyway as being all open source, no one is copying anyone, simply building the same source code. Just frustrating to have ones words taken and repeated without permission, attribution or even a simple acknowledgement, and its suddenly something that has happened a lot in the past few days.

Really sorry mate ...yes I have not asked permission from you I apologizing for that ... I don't know how to create a thread while looking at your thread it was really a promising one just to start with .
I was at my work time though so just spend only few mjns for that ..
Sorry once again...
If you insist I will change the entire thread

thanks for building RR I'll keep an eye on this as it develops

Working like a dream for me. Really appreciate this.
(/w Nebula 7.0.2)

Tried to add full OMS support to my yesterdays build ... But I think I am missing some steps..
Without some devs support I think I might not be able to fix it

Finally an OMS included RR nightly has been uploaded... See the main thread for download Link...

OMS(meaning substrarum) I installed from the Play Store on the 12/24 build seems to work fine. Wifi cuts out at random is that the bug everyone talks about? It just puts am X in it and says connected but no internet.

GPL Source Request

Hi all,
I've created an issue on Motorola's kernel-msm repo that is a request for them to release the kernel sources for the G 5 Plus (Potter).
The post is here - https://github.com/MotorolaMobilityLLC/kernel-msm/issues/104
Please feel free to reply with similar requests so as to get Motorola moving on a proper GPL source release.

The sources are already out....

Oh really? My bad... Can I just pull from that kernel-msm repo mentioned in the original post? Or is there a different repo just for Potter?

It looks like the source release for NPN25.137-15 is tagged here:
https://github.com/MotorolaMobilityLLC/kernel-msm/tree/MMI-NPN25.137-15/
It's a bit older than the version shipped with my phone but it could work. I'm going to see if I can compile it later.

Why'd you edit your post? I took a look at Alberto's repo and it looks like it would be compatible with our phones.

Man yes let me mention the guy who successfully ​able to build with Alberto's sources. He is @i.snehal.kiran.
He has done this to compile but unfortunately for some reason he doesn't able to get the device to test. His msg is below
basically i have taken addison device tree ...just change the kernel path and defconfig name in boradconfig.mk ..makes it build boot.img
the source provided by motorola on github is full of errors..so use alberto's kernel for addison till you get official kernel from moto

I edited the post bcz I thought u want to work with custom kernel for stock rom. And I thought this might not be useful.

I got as far as getting the LineageOS sources pulled for 14.1, had to do it twice since it was too big for my home directory so I had to create a new volume and run repo sync again. Took forever, but at least I have the OS sources downloaded. Now we're at the point of getting that kernel and setting up a device configuration for our device. Once we get that, then I can see if we can build and flash.

I see there are 7S and 6S kernels, but I don't see any custom ROMs for them, so idk if we will see any for this phone too.

The repo is now available, however, it's empty by the time of me posting this now. It took them two weeks just to create the repo, that's insane. Well, at least it finally happened. Waiting for sources to be uploaded, they probably have to use slow vpn or something to do that, so it might take quite a bit of time.

What can we do with the kernel source?

So it is here.

Well, apparently we'll have to write drivers for our device:
Code:
# nubia driver
drivers/nubia
arch/arm64/configs/vendor/nubia
arch/arm64/configs/vendor/NX729J_diff.config
arch/arm64/configs/vendor/NX729J-perf_diff.config
arch/arm64/configs/vendor/NX729J_driveronly.config
This is from .gitignore, so we can't build this kernel and run it i.e. on stock rom.

We're not gonna see them until someone writes these drivers or zte publishes them. Both are very unlikely, so...

Seems like they uploaded it again, on zips. I checked and it seems to contain several things inside the /drivers/nubia folder so we probably have now a full workable kernel source
