[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FridayJ:
I've tried Apex, Mosaic, dlev and Continuum roms... With all but continuum, I get force close's after restoring apps/data in Tibu.

Example, I wipe data cache, dalvic and then flash one of the roms. Once it's booted up, I go into Titanium, do a batch restore of apps, and once it finishes, I go to start Angry Birds and it fc's. It can be any of the apps, its not just directed at Angry Birds. (it even happens with stock apps, like Memo or messaging)

So, last night I flashed back to Continuum and not one fc... but, I'm missing some of the goodies from the other roms. EDT tweaks for one!!!

Anyway, I guess my question is what's the diff between Continuum and the other roms, as far as this specific problem?

Thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
seems like an issue with data restore in tibu...idk why it worked for continuum but...try and delete all the backups and run a fresh batch backup now that they are running. then flash another rom and see if that still happens.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FridayJ:
Will give this a shot!!! Thank you!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FridayJ:
Damn! Didn't work... but, I perhaps made a mistake by wiping data/factory reset along with the cache's....

I just don't understand, because really, it's not rocket science and yet I don't see other people with the issue!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhaley30705:
Check for tibu updates, and go into preferences and force tibu to use system busybox instead of its own (option is at bottom of pref menu). I would also check for updates to superuser.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FridayJ:
Giving this a shot as well, thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZeroG1:
I had a similar problem as well. I tried the Dlev and Obsession ROMs but got FC's on some apps on both using the same method as you described. I tried one more time with Obsession but also installed the Symply GSII theme before restoring apps and everything worked fine. I'm not sure why that would have made a difference but my phone has been working great for a couple weeks now.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FridayJ:
Well, I'm not sure what worked and what didn't... I tried the busybox change but still had fc's when I installed dlev's rom. So, I tried Apex again, and so far, no fc's. I just don't get it...

Thanks for everyone's input!

Hi,

I use oskitchen with leo 3.14 ROM as my base. If I use 1.66 ROM I have about 180mb free. If I use 3.14 as the base rom I only have about 50mb free. Basic rom built no addons.

Does any body know why this is eating up so much internal memory?

Solution

Fixed issue. I built a rom using RUU_Leo_S_HTC_WWE_3.14.405.2 and got 51mb free space. I then downloaded RUU_Leo_1_5_TMOUS_2.13.531.1 and then used the nk.exe from this rom.

I rebuilt the exact same rom again but with the new nk.exe and got 171.42 free storage and 294.17 free program space.

Also with using this nk.exe from a tmous rom is this now compatable with users with a tmous device if they use the correct radio?
[Windows Mobile] HD2Owner:
if you are using tmous 3.14.531.1 as base for your rom, make sure you use hspl2.08.

otherwise (with hspl3.03) you will face this memory issues.

if you are using a european rom as base, you can use hspl2.08 (memory issues) or 3.03.

but only with hspl2.08 and tmous 3.14.531.1 base you will have 576mb ram enabled.
[Windows Mobile] Stephen:
Hi,

Im using Euro ROM as base, sorry should have mentioned that. I am also using HSLP 2.08 with radio 2.15, still only getting 51mb free. Bit random. My kitchen is in my sig below. If you wouldn't mind downlaoding a copy and having a look it would be much appreciated.

I think I am missing something obvious! As far as I can remember hslp 3 does not enable 576mb ram. Only 2.08 does.
[Windows Mobile] HD2Owner:
if you want to use hspl2.08 (for android) you better use tmous base.

i can imagine that you also face memory issues this way around.

with "base" i mean not only oem but also rom (xip).

i also suggest you should download my osbuilder template kitchen for hd2 to have a look.

I understand that the radio-only from EPIH has been made available for install through ODIN. I'm wondering whether someone kind soul who knows what they are doing could make a version of the radio available in zip form for flashing with CWM? This would make things much easier for people like me who are on Macs. Whenever an ODIN file is involved, I have to find a friend to let me use their PC for the purpose.

(BTW, I do have Heimdall installed, but so far have been hesitant to use it as I've heard that it is not as stable as ODIN).

Ironically, I just flashed mine with the one found on samfirmware.com as I needed to send my unit back to Samsung for RMA on the battery, (battery kept on shutting down for no reason) and it worked just fine. Phone, CSC was all there. They gave it the once over and actually "reformatted" it for me, just to diagnose in case it wasn't a software issue. Lo and behold, it shut down on them right after the "reformatting" and confirmed my issues for them! :D

Just follow the restocking part of the guide found on Teamovercome.net, but instead of using the standard JQ1.tar file we provided, just use the tar file that came from samfirmware and you should be alright. That's what I did anyway, and it was all fine.

Just remember to do change the CSC from the Korean one to your appropriate market's CSC. The Malaysian CSC was XME.

The DXJPE firmware is the same from samfirmware.

Using Odin, put pit file 'gt-p1000_mr.pit', put PDA file the downloaded tar file and start flashing.

Upon flash successfully complete, the tab is observed to be stuck in Download mode.

Power off the tab, then enter recovery mode (power button, volume up button)

Once on recovery, will see runs of red text. Dont worry

From recovery perform clear cache, factory reset.

Reboot tab.

Tab should boot up to the familiar language setup screens.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] Sinful Animosity:
Is this going to be a full-fledged Gentoo? Or are we still bound by the OSH partition?

Or could this work in combination with Sogarth's WebTop app?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kholk:
This is going to be a full Gentoo system, but you'll need an SDCard for running it.

It will totally _replace_ Motorola Webtop and you'll need Sogarth's Webtop2SD for using it. Actually you can copy the normal webtop partition to SD with his application and then copy GenTop over it (tricky)... but I'm sure Sogarth will add support to GenTop on his application.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] vishurao:
Might be a stupid demand... but can you make it possible to launch gentoo without hdmi pluing? Here is why i ask:

1. Buy and install a cheap 100$ android tab in your car.

2. Install gentoo on your phone.

3. Rdesktop from tab to your phone.

4. Voila! You have a cheap car pc with navigation in your car/pocket.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kholk:
@vishurao

Of course! If we set x11vnc as X display, we can connect via VNC to our Gentoo system.

That's simple. :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Viamonte:
Seing as there are numerous difference on GB's webtop, I do believe you should develop on top of that. Sogarth, for example, is still struggling on a port, so it cant be that easy. The idea is marvelous tough, and I'm silently cheering for you guys from over here.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] eval-:
Exciting! Looking forward to this!! You have a solution for libflashplugin.so support carried over from webtop jaunty and the libpulse<->binder<->audioflinger hack and AIW binary blobs? `ldd libflashplugin.so` scared me, but I'm sure we can LD_PRELOAD / LD_LIBRARY_PATH or chroot or something around the problem, although maybe there is a cleaner way? Anyhow, I am happy to help work on those issues if you do not already have some ideas, or even if you do have some ideas =)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] crnkoj:
Uhm kholk is only the mountosh modification needed from the webtop2sd, or way more, if its only that than one could just dd the img (if youll upload an img) to an external sdcard and change mountosh. uhm one more thing how would one go at starting it than, using the apk or starting a script/executable?

im quite keen on helping still, not that ultra dev but im learning :P i kind of got my own gentoo compiled but cant really get xserver to work properly (keeps telling me connection refused)

hey thanks for the work. Once you upload your files ill try it out :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kholk:
Oh, finally.

I'm really happy to see that someone here is finally wanting to work together and supporting this work.

Really, really good.

@crncoj

Unfortunately, we can't use IMG files because we have to give to the user the possibility to create a partition of the desired size on his SDCard. If we use an image file, the partition size will be fixed and we would need to create a second one for other purposes..........no, that isn't so easy.

Tarballing it instead would give us the possibility to use a custom partition.

The GenTop will be installed this way (if Sogarth wants to integrate that into his program in this way):

1. Copy the GenTop tarball (.tar, not .tar.bz2 'cause that would take really TOO MUCH time to extract on ARM) on Internal Storage

2. Partition the external SDCard as the user wants (Min space: 4.0-4.6GB)

3. Mount temporairily the SDCard's GenTop partition on a temporary directory (such as /tmp/GenTopInstall)

4. Extract the tarball on the GenTop partition (example: /tmp/GenTopInstall)

5. Sync and unmount the GenTop partition

6. Setup MountOSH to mount the GenTop partition (like it's already being done for the 'normal' WebTop2SD)

@eval-

There are multiple working solutions around that. We should only see what's the best one, in price of stability and performance!

As for the flash plugin, I prefer to take another way off of Adobe's Flash plugin. I'm planning to use opensource solutions for that as Adobe's one is really giving problems... solvable, but problems.

What bothers me on the Flash support side is performance: did you notice the bad performance of Flash on the original Webtop?

It's Adobe's fault. They didn't optimize their Flash libraries/plugins/executables, so we're still running "old" assembler code. Can't remember now if it's compiled for v5te or v6, but anyway, that's poor 'cause it's compiled with Thumb2 mode enabled.

Thumb2 is SLOW. I've enabled it with interworking for the entire GenTop because...

Yeah, Thumb2 is SLOW on CPU. It will run a lot of instructions and lose time, but the binaries size will be really less than ARM mode. Since our SDCards / internal flash aren't SO fast, we'll have better performance in Thumb mode for some applications.

Note that the compilation has been done in interworking mode, so, the tasks that are heavy on CPU will be ran in ARM and the ones that are heavy on HDD will be ran in Thumb.

Now, why am I doing a "lesson" on Thumb2?

That's 'cause for Flash we need CPU processing power. We don't care about size because it's really heavy on CPU(s), so, that's why I'm on the opensource flash plugin way. But that's a thing that can change.

As for the audio problem, we can redirect the output to ALSA: the kernel will do the job, as GenTop sound is being played on HDMI AUDIO OUT, not on device speakers.

P.S.: Download available!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] crnkoj:
uhm what about the starting it? :) i think i added that part after you already started writing the response :)

anyhow for testing i can just untar the stuff on a sdcard on my desktop gentoo machine instead of doing it on the atrix.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Sogarth:
If it helps, I'll be adding another option onto webtop2sd: "Reinstall mount executable". The main reason I'm adding it is so that I can roll out an updated mount executable and have people not need to rebuild their SD card Ubuntu partition, but it should be pretty easy to leverage that for this effort as well, in which case the two useful parts would end up being partitioning/formatting your SD card from your device + installing a mount executable.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] devbro:
I really want to try this out, but not too fimiliar with the exact details of each step for installation.

Is there any script for automizing the installation?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kholk:
@Sogarth

I don't think the new mount executable would be much useful for GenTop purposes.

But I think that adding an option that takes an already downloaded (or that downloads directly) tarball of GenTop and exctracts it to a partition would be useful!

Thanks for being here and thanks for your support :) :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Sogarth:
The new mount executable (script, really) is to mount mmcblk0p2 over the existing /osh mount, so that all of the bin, usr, sbin, etc. symlinks that get created in / actually point to things that make sense. So I suspect it probably is useful. ;)

The other part is definitely an option (probably download a loopback filesystem file, and use that as a source instead), but would require a bit more work than what's there right now.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Gizmo306:
Sorgath,

If Gentop came as an tar file, you can just untar it to newosh partition as installation, right!

It is much easier and no need to mount source Fs at all.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] EricHegnes:
Beautiful. Excellent work, and a superior alternative to the junk I had going on.

Also, if I can be of any help, please tell me. I'm glad this whole Gentoo thing took off, but I've been too busy developing RSA SMS to spend much time in the Gentoo realm.

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Sogarth:
If I was writing something from scratch, maybe.

But I'm not doing that.

Edit: Also, if you've created a filesystem file from, say, /dev/zero, that will compress just about as well as a tar file will. So the benefits to the tar file aren't huge, and I don't plan on doing extensive rewriting of what I've already written for that minimal benefit.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] kholk:
Umh, it isn't a huge rewriting IMHO....

....it's only about adding an option to say "I want to install GenTop" or "I want Motorola WebTop".... but anyway, regard the installation method it's not so important now!

We can talk about the installation methods later, when GenTop will be in BETA state.
