i think beta testing is needed after the initial obvious issues are cleaned

i would love this thread to be a hub for this rom

so all infos should be concentrated here and then communicated to the devs or vice versa so we can always be sure the devs only get multible time checked bugs

what you think about this?

i think we should donate the money(105bugs) during the development not at the end....who is with me?(best would be as i think as soon as it reached beta status(daily driver))
[Gen8 Android Development] gbohm:
i will check it tonight if i haven't deleted the files......
[Gen8 Android Development] vantoman:
guys good news , BuBU stated today on #openpma that he solved the Accelerometer issue ; i guess he is working on this project really hard and we will get a full working cyanogenmod image ASAP .
[Gen8 Android Development] saprano614:
I am having 2 issues. 1 i can get the boot menu to show Gingerbread but it wont boot it. it just flashes blank screen then reboots to menu.

second i try to boot to android and it does but then gets stuck in a boot loop and i have to reflash the boot menu to get it to boot again.
[Gen8 Android Development] supagforce:
Try this version of the boot menu

initramfs.cpio.gz & zImage

found here http://download.openaos.org/bubu/gen8/

The menu once you boot it up should be green and not blue like the old one.
[Gen8 Android Development] Lenn:
Could anyone tell me how to install urukdroid into the bootmenu?:)

i think there isnt a *.img file of uruk, and i dont know how to compile one out of these datas:)

Please, i want urukdroid back, i hate normal archos os:D
[Gen8 Android Development] eagleofdeath13:
I want the same thing, but i remember something $auron said, he said that the boot menu has been included in UrukDroid 1.1, so installing Uruk 1.1 will do the things right i think.
[Gen8 Android Development] rootuser:
blue & green version flashes back to the openaos screen

I'm having the same issues as saprano614.

both the green and blue version does the same thing

Archos (does boot)

Gingerbread (flashes the openaos screen then the archos screen then back to the menu)

Angstrom (does boot)

[Gen8 Android Development] Lenn:
I know that site, some guys from the IRC give it to me:)

i'll do it on my VMWare (Ubuntu) tomorrow with Honeycomb and Urukdroid...

Hopefully, it'll works:):) if yes, i will upload the images for all of you;)

But with what files i have to do this? For Honeycomb its clear, but for Urukdroid...

with the out of the urukdroid_install zip maybe?:)
[Gen8 Android Development] gbohm:
puh i would have to take a look at it i am on a rush at the moment (work and buisness trips) but as soon as i have time i want to look into this some more and do some dev work myself if i find any time.....
[Gen8 Android Development] saprano614:
How do i save the zimage? when i click on it it opens it dosent give me the option to save it. i can download the initramfs fine but not the zimage
[Gen8 Android Development] eagleofdeath13:
Right click on it and save as ...

;)
[Gen8 Android Development] Veritas06:
Is anyone else getting the bootloops using this zImage & initramfs or do I just have bad luck?

[Gen8 Android Development] supagforce:
Try this works for me, and i had the same reboot loop issue..

rename the extracted file "openaos-gingerbread-20110626_103911.img" to "openaos-gingerbread.img"

then use the attached menu.lst file (in rar format, extract it first) and overwrite you original file (found at root). Hope this helps.
[Gen8 Android Development] Veritas06:
Great, thanks. As soon as I get home tonight iI'll give it another try.

[Gen8 Android Development] gbohm:
you didn't do it like in the first post descripted?
[Gen8 Android Development] Veritas06:
I could swear that step-by-step guide wasn't there yesterday... Anyway, working on that part now. Which partition did you all drop the img & menu file onto? Since i can't get the OS to boot, i'm in USB mode via recovery so i have the 3 partitions (guessing the first is Developer Firmware, Android OS, & SD/media partition). I'm assuming it's the media partition because it's 512MB & no other partition has enough space, but just figured i'd check.

Again, TIA.

EDIT: Answered my own question, saw it is supposed to go on the media partition, however still having the same issue with the reboots. I tried removing the custom menu.lst to see if the boot menu would created ( as stated in the tutorial on openAOS ) but that is not being created either =\.
[Gen8 Android Development] eagleofdeath13:
A simple question (that i've asked in the UrukDroid thread, but maybe the answer will be different here). I have a 3G USB stick. If i can plug it on my Archos 70IT and make it work, will it be possible to use my Archos as a smartphone? (make calls, sends sms ...)

(i have a smartphone and this tablet, but i would like to use my tablet for all these usage ^^)

Thanks for future answer (if there is ^^)
[Gen8 Android Development] vantoman:
an updated version is out now guys :)
[Gen8 Android Development] gbohm:
i don't think it will work ril layer will be the problem but perhaps i will be proven wrong.....
[Gen8 Android Development] gbohm:
the orientation sensors are now working but they invert the launcher
[Gen8 Android Development] vantoman:
gbohom did u use the new zimage and initramfs.cpio.gz?!!

http://download.openaos.org/bubu/gen8/zImage

http://download.openaos.org/bubu/gen8/initramfs.cpio.gz

and for the accelerometer we need to activate 180 degrees into cyanogenmod display settings ; i'm using the rom right now and evrything seems to be working fine :)
[Gen8 Android Development] gbohm:
yeah i installed it before that post was up it is working now ;-)

smb wants to test and write a guide how to get the market up without terminal ?
[Gen8 Android Development] vantoman:
i've installed gapps and the market is working fine i've installed it manually using adb push commands and pushed the files into /system/app/ .
[Gen8 Android Development] gbohm:
could you post a script i don't have my pc with me atm i will incoperate it in the how to with a thanks to you of course

my gmail is fc from time to time
[Gen8 Android Development] vantoman:
i think it's to easy to install gapps using adb push ; just download the gapps :

http://android.d3xt3r01.tk/cyanogen/gapps/gapps-gb-20110613-signed.zip

extract it ; then start copy all the files to your device using :

adb push

for example you want to copy all the files from the app folder to your device so you will copy those files to /system/app/ using the following command:

adb push /file location/example.apk /system/app

just remember to send the files to the right directories ,

the files inside app folder will be send to /system/app

the files inside framework folder will be send to /system/framework

the files inside lib folder will be send to /system/lib

the files inside etc folder will be send to /system/etc/permissions

so u'll do this command for every file you want to send to your device it may take some time but it's an easy task

that's how i did it and i'm not sure if there is another way or not but this method worked fine for me and i faced 0 issues with google apps till now
[Gen8 Android Development] gbohm:
thank you very much i think we should have a script for terminal copy the folders to root then just copy the script and execute gapps

-> yeah

sent from my droid (not the one you are looking for)
[Gen8 Android Development] vantoman:
i think you are right about the script it will save time ; but we can't execute any commands as root from the android terminal as there is an issue with the executing SU command

so i think we will use the manual way till we get a fully working cyanogen image from BuBu .
[Gen8 Android Development] gbohm:
i think the su issue is because of the missing bin like with other cm roms it could be fixable.root file manager would be easy too i think...

i want a failprove solution for the guide

sent from my droid (not the one you are looking for)
[Gen8 Android Development] eagleofdeath13:
Maybe a BusyBox problem? (i don't really know many things, but as far as i know, busybox is the "package" that contains system apps like "su" etc...
[Gen8 Android Development] vantoman:
to solve the SU issue just run the following commands from adb shell:

chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su

chmod u+s /system/xbin/su

now i can run any application with root privileges
[Gen8 Android Development] dtr145r:
hey i have an a70 but mine has a 250 hard drive, not the 8 gig flash drive..

is cm only working on the 8 gig or will it work with both?

ive tried it on mine and all i get is boot loops

let me know thanks
[Gen8 Android Development] danielsf:
Hi, would it be possible for someone to create and upload a video of this rom running on their device please? :D
[Gen8 Android Development] Veritas06:
I keep getting a little further each time, & then get stuck. I was finally able to get the multiboot installed, but now i cannot edit the menu.lst. Every time i edit it, it recreates it with Angstrom, Ginger-bread, [Blank], & Gingerbread options, however the only one that actually works is Angstrom. Blank reboots the tablet, & the two Gingerbread ones freeze on the openAOS boot screen. I tried manually editing the menu.lst, copy the one posted in this thread with:

& i've verified that the image is correctly named. I saw that some others had similar issues, but it was solved with an updated zImage & initramfs.

EDIT: This is with up-to-date versions of everything (latest zImage & initramfs, as well as cm7 image).
[Gen8 Android Development] fzelle:
And you have an empty line behind "Ginger-bread|"?
[Gen8 Android Development] Lenn:
Yep, this was the main issue for me:D

An you've the unix line endings enabled? (Onky if you are on windows;))
[Gen8 Android Development] Veritas06:
Just before i read your post i meant to edit mine to make it more obvious that i had the empty line at the end. But yeah, i made an extra blank line at the end. Or did you mean how it appears on the device? On the Archos is looks like this:

Yeah, running 11.10 so don't have to worry about the Windows EOL stuff.

Going to try re-downloading & flashing everything, & use nano instead of gedit. Maybe something got corrupted or for some insane reason gedit doesn't use unix EOL.
[Gen8 Android Development] gbohm:

[Gen8 Android Development] Veritas06:
Same problem, it's replacing the menu.lst file with it's own:

This is with fresh copies of init, zImage, & the gingerbread img
[Gen8 Android Development] Lenn:
Oh cool, arctablet did a install video, actually i wanted to this but..:D

anyway, i have already made a video just of running Cyan on my 101:)

Look here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfE-P9rGawY
[Gen8 Android Development] Lenn:
Okey, wait i'll write the hole menu.lst file down here:

Archos|ARCHOS|ARCHOS|/init|0 [BREAK]
Angstrom||/rootfs.img|/sbin/init|1 [BREAK]
Gingerbread||/gingerbread.img|/init| 0 [BREAK]
[BREAK]

(The breaks are the unix line endings;))

I had exactly the same issue than you;)

With these menu.lst it worked for me:):)

Actually, it have to work;)

Maybe you miss-understand gbohm tip "empty line"

you have to be in the 5th line. In the 4th "empty" line there have to be a break to;)

that was my failure:D
[Gen8 Android Development] Veritas06:
This one?:

Or an alternative? Short of changing the permissions so that the file is only readable, i'm starting to run out of ideas =\
[Gen8 Android Development] Lenn:
Look at my post;):)
[Gen8 Android Development] gbohm:
download my menue.lst...

the img is really in the same directory?

sent from my droid (not the one you are looking for)
[Gen8 Android Development] Lenn:
I think he has just copied the lines in your menu.lst ...

like me:D

The thing is: i think he miss understood the tip with the empty line wrong, like me:D

(Look my post last page:))
[Gen8 Android Development] gbohm:
anyone made any progress with an installation scrip for the gapps ?

i am not able to have a look until friday .....

is it just me or is the latest version quite stable some improvements and this will get my daily driver ....

guys you should try bodhi linux too it is an amazing work
[Gen8 Android Development] vantoman:
gobhom i talked with BuBu yesterday about this and guess what ; he stated that there will be arctools for this build of cyanogen so we will install gapps the easy way no scripts is needed then ; so no need to make a script as he will include arctools on his images :D
[Gen8 Android Development] gbohm:
that is fantastic thank you for sharing

sent from my droid (not the one you are looking for)
[Gen8 Android Development] Veritas06:
I've replaced my menu.lst with the link you provided & still keep getting mine reset & yes, the *.lst & *.img are in the same directory.

I've tried copying & pasting it into a file, manually typing it out, & using the file gbohm gave me without any modification (not even opening the file) & still getting the same results.

Clearly i'm doing something wrong at some point. I'll trying messing around with it & see what i can come up with.
[Gen8 Android Development] Lenn:
Did you read me previous post?;):)
[Gen8 Android Development] Veritas06:
Yes, i took a look at yours & compared it to what i was putting on the device, it all matches. Did you do this from windows or linux?
[Gen8 Android Development] Lenn:
From windows:D:) i dont like linux so much, just haveca Vmware..:)

on windows in notepad++ i see the unix line endings with a symbol..;)

If you're in the line after the last entry, you have to press enter again:);)

So that you are in the over the next line:)
[Gen8 Android Development] gbohm:
it must be another problem if he tried useing my menue.lst

last idea from me for the moment:downloading the img file with the browser from the a101 unzipping it with androzip renaming and copeing it to the right directory...

worked for me
[Gen8 Android Development] Veritas06:
Still no luck. Used a few dos2unix converters even tho the file was created in unix & it still replaces my file with the one i've quoted before. There must be something i'm missing, but for now i'll stop crowding the thread with useless posts & let it get back to those who have actually gotten it work so far.

Thanks for all the help Lenn & gbohm
[Gen8 Android Development] Lenn:
Hm... that could be a problem too, just like at the android market tbz2 file from urukdroid:)
[Gen8 Android Development] gbohm:
i think we have to find a sollution to your problem .....

the thing is i tried it with ubuntu too and it worked i just really want know what the problem is

sent from my droid(not the one you are looking for)
[Gen8 Android Development] jsperri:
That's correct, ArcTools should be updated very soon to add Apps&Market on OpenAOS CyanogenMod.
[Gen8 Android Development] Lenn:
At any rate!:)

Maybe we could post a whole *.zip with all files needed from the menu.lst to the *.img's :)

Maybe this would help...

And i would prefer a completly fresh try;)

PS Wie kann ich denn nen Thread löschen?:)
[Gen8 Android Development] vantoman:
you can give it one last try with the debug initramfs there was talk about problems i think it's like what you are facing on IRC and i think it was solved after using initramfs-debug.cpio.gz insted of initramfs.cpio.gz

just download it from here:

http://download.openaos.org/bubu/gen8/initramfs-debug.cpio.gz

rename it to initramfs.cpio.gz

install it and zimage and try again it may work and may not im not sure ; i just wanted to help :)
[Gen8 Android Development] Veritas06:
Yeah, the fact that i can't get it working is what pisses me off. At this point i don't even care what img i can boot, just want it to recognize & stop replacing my file. Tried changing the permissions on the file to read-only but it still deletes or overwrites it. Tried using the posted files, copy/paste & manually typing the lines into both nano & gedit with no luck so far.
[Gen8 Android Development] gbohm:
reboot it without the img file then replace the menue.lst is a rootfs.img in the same directory too?

sent from my droid(not the one you are looking for)
[Gen8 Android Development] Veritas06:
At this point i'll take any suggestion haha. Unfortunately my menu.lst is still replaced with the other one i had posted with the only bootable option being Angstrom.

Yeah, there is a rootfs. According to the menu.lst that's being created it's the Angstrom image.

I deleted the img & tried booting & saw the same boot menu i've been seeing, then tried deleting the file that was there after after a reboot it went straight to Angstrom. I was able to edit the menu.lst & the next time i saw the boot menu it had the entries for Angstrom plus the Gingerbread one i added. Adding the image now to see if it will work.

EDIT:

I guess we've made some progress --it's no longer replacing my menu.lst file. It added it's own gingerbread line, but after trying them both, neither boot. It just sits at the openAOS boot screen. I'm going to try the older images & see if those boot, just have to get some stuff ready for class first. I'll post back with my results soon.

another update!!!
[Gen8 Android Development] Lenn:
I've tested it already and i have to say: its just great!:)

It is much faster then the previous versions:);)

You all have to try it;)

Atm, i have no time to flash the new initramfs to support the gsensor but i'll do that tomorrow:)

PS Could you close your cyanogen developement thread on main section?:) gbohm and i want to have just ne thread, this will be more effience:) what do ou say?

I also close my thread here in dev section. ;)
[Gen8 Android Development] eagleofdeath13:
@LennB flash it, it doesn't break anything (and i was surprised to see that by flashing the initramfs and zimage from Uruk it launched Uruk (not installed, just flashed them))
[Gen8 Android Development] vantoman:
so much better than the older version guys , and we got the kernel patch which was submitted by sibere ; i think i'll be using this for a daily use :D
[Gen8 Android Development] sibere:
Previous version was slow and laggy. I'll have a look at this one , thanks for the info :)
[Gen8 Android Development] Lenn:
Thaks for the info:)

but its getting late and i dont want to flash it today:D i'll flash it tomorrow:)

I really think this Cyan version we can use for daily use like vantoman already said:)

You should!:) I would say we have our first "really" port!:) Its fast and i think i'll gonna use it daily, when i flashed the new boot menu for gsensor support:)
[Gen8 Android Development] gbohm:
i have a lot of sleep of death problems anyone with me on that?
[Gen8 Android Development] Lenn:
Hmm.. cant say anything to that.. i'll look:)

PS I just asked Bubu on the IRC about our thread(s):D

He said its okay, i said he can contact us per pm;):)

How i can close my thread? I looked at thread tools and editing the first post, but nothing..:(
[Gen8 Android Development] Veritas06:
Still getting stuck on the boot logo after selecting gingerbread with the images i tried (used today's init & zImage) but at least that brings me a step closer to getting it booting, instead of messing with the menu.lst. Leaving for class now, but if i get it working tonight i'll post the solution just in case someone else has the same issue

Can any one confirm if GTALK is working on this latest version ? and what about Video chat ?? and Skype ??
[Gen8 Android Development] eagleofdeath13:
No easy way to install the market (only adb) so not many people here can say it to you ^^
[Gen8 Android Development] ActuallyDan:
Hey guys, is it already safe to instal CM7? By that I mean, is everything working properly? Last time I checked, the bt, wifi and a bunch of other features were not working yet. One more thing, is it an improvement over the stock/urukdroid or should I wait a bit more?

Thanks!

It's working, haven't seen a big bug (BT still not working, that's all). But maybe you'll better wait ^^
