[Galaxy Tab  Android Development] oldmacnut:
Team Android Door.

Spacemoose and I, and a few others whom honestly, i have not personally talked to yet, my life is so ****ed up right now, with the arms, back, etc, its just been me and dan talking right now.

I tried an ECO2 AOSP build, and it seems samsung likes to keep alot of **** out, so it never had a chance to work, and right now i am physically working on Psirens RC3 at the moment, i am actually getting ready to pull it off the tab and flash it via heimdall on my other tab, if it works as planned, its going up today. it seems alot of bugs have been worked out this time around.

my problem is, i need a PR person to answer posts, update people/etc. Im horrible, horrible at updates, i have always been the guy that just wants to be left in a dark room, left alone to work, let me work, and ill deliver the product, always been like that, even with the Film Editing, problem is i cant get my wife to post for me, so alot of you guys are left out in the dark wondering what i am doing....

Well, this coming Friday the 22nd i am scheduled for a double arm surgery to repair what's left of both joints in both elbows, tendon damage, nerves in both wrists, and muscle damage in both hands. I do not know what recovery is looking like, how long, what i will be able to do, etc. Then, possibly within the next 30 days ill be getting my broken vertebre repaired, 2 nerve bundles moved, and all 5 discs in my back L1-L5 in lower lumbar replaced, i am vert on vert with L3-L4 right now, L1 haemorrhaged, L2 broke, L3 gone, L4 herniated, L5 torn. i assume recovery from that.....might be ****ty. So i am trying to cram out these projects, the half finished ones like Psirens(ECO2), Future Echos(2.3.4), Cassandra(ECO2 w/TouchWiz4), finalise The Android Door Website, finish uploading backups and collected Android Development stuff to the Mirror, and of course maybe organise the mirror and get my mirror thread turned into a sticky.

Im doing all of this while my hands and arms are in tremendous pain, watching my 4 and 2 year old all day, dealing with my back pain, and pissed i cant go back to work to bring more income in.

Yeah, i sound ALLL ****ed up, but im not, i do get a solid 10 hours a day on the computer, if not 16, and on the weekends I usually get close to 20. It sounds worse (well, i have never fully explained what i am going through with my arms/back for a good reason) than what it is, i do get plenty of development time believe it or not.

So, that, was it, the solid truth on why some stuff seems abandoned, why i may not reply to peoples PM's or emails, or gTalk chats. Im fairly busy trying to learn the advanced things with Android, oh, get this.....lol, I sooo knew this would happen.....

So Dan is helping me, training if you will, and i am picking this up fast right, super fast, crazy theories, ideas, ports, attemopts, just crazy stuff.

So I am nagging him for what...2 weeks on building a kernel, so we do the ECO2 kernel step by step, and it doesn't work, but a week goes by right, i mean im nagging him like my daughter nags me, cause I WANT to get a Gingerbread kernel out to the masses with EXT4 and Recovery, I know this is something the CDMA tabs NEED, and I want to do this BEFORE big red releases GB for us VZW peeps.

So finally we get phone time and im downloading even more Internet (my Android Development hard drive is 1TB) and i get ancy as I dont think I am getting to soak this information up fast enough right.....so I say "screw this i cant wait" i decide to compile a custom kernel for my Ubuntu rig i use for Dev and daily use, I compiled an Intel Core i7 only kernel, managed to up the CPU freq from 100mhz to 1000mhz, tweak it just a tiny bit more, and the damn thing worked the moment i rebooted.

So now I am really nagging, trying to read more and more on trully customising a kernel for 2.3.4, so it is coming, one of probably many, and I will release a DJ11 and ECO2 set of kernels i am sure. I loved the kernel work, and probably will turn into the kernel nut job.

So, there you have it, a real update into the life, workings, mental incapacitation of good old Jim .

So, if someone really does need to reach me, best bet is to text my tab 903-647-0096, however I am not sure how fast i can respond, especially today as i am working on Psirens RC3 on my daily driver right now.

So, for now..........Im going back to work.
