...:eek:...thats all i can say about that haha...yeah constant bootloop will make things get verrryyy hot inside the phone and start melting things probably
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] ASAM123:
I am sort of confused. Which build has the most working features? Thanks
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] buddyloop:
i was trying to charge the battery.. lulz

all ready re built the droid swapt chips from another that had digitizer issues, BUT it isnt rooted... and i have no other rooted chips...

honestly the o.p is the "fastest:, has most features, "most" things work...

Twisted is making A LOT! of headway getting things working but, the only downloadable version of twisted's roms is currently boot looping.

sooo, the o.p. has it :)
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Dave Lister:
I believe lolcat is just an alias for the logcat command. It doesn't capture anything extra.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] imanol01:
New build plis!

bro i'm new in this of android i have 12 years old and i need the last buid of ics kfaaz rom bot i don't what is logcat ..etc plis upload the last build link cause i only see the link of 5 january plis .! :(:(
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] metalspring:
You probably don't wanna use this then haha, it's not ready for daily use yet
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] SantiMun:
WELCOME

iman, welcome to XDA :)

I would recommend using the search function here to learn more about logcat and other inquiries you may have. This thread is more for testing at the moment.

You can also search using a search engine such as Google to find your answers.

If you have any other questions feel free to PM (private message) me as opposed to asking on this thread unless the question is directly pertaining to this ROM. You can also posts your questions in the General thread but PLEASE make sure you search first before asking!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twistedumbrella:
Found the composer issue just working out some issues with stagefright and the new frameworks and things should start working. I was building from the hardware profile for a newer motorola. Explains a lot.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] metalspring:
i guess i could elaborate...its a command used in a terminal emulator (you can download one in the market)

however its mostly used for debugging purposes and its unlikely you would know how to interpret much of anything in it, its mostly of use to developers only

however if you do ever need to get a logcat do this in a terminal emulator

su
logcat > /sdcard/logcat.txt

then wait about 4-5 seconds and then hold volume up and hit "F" on the keyboard

and if that doesnt work then

su
dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg.txt

then wait about 4-5 seconds and then hold volume up and hit "F" on the keyboard

btw those for anyone that wants to know too
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] metalspring:
It doesn't do anything it's an invalid command
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Rotordroid:
I found it was an alias used in some ROM's, not a standard command...
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] metalspring:
Wonder if it was a typo then? Most commands and most Linux/Android things don't really need an alias since they somewhat stand for what they do...logcat has log right in the name and stuff like dmesg (debugging messages) and even ones like ril (radio interface language?) Are easy to figure out if you know what they stand for

I could be wrong though, I'm no Linux master here haha
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twistedumbrella:
It was a joke alias. Like sysro for mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdajmaj3 /system (I need a life for remembering that) with the name for the cheesy images to make it memorable.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Rotordroid:
I wish I could remember it when I need it...thank goodness for sysro LOL
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] metalspring:
That one isn't for the D1 I don't think lol

I think the D1's is

mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

Or this might be easier

mount -o remount,ro -t yaffs2 /dev/block/* /system
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] ASAM123:
Oh. Which is the latest O.P. build? The Jan 5th one? And what doesn't work on it? Thanks
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] cowsquad:
Well magiman7 made a script sysrw and sysro for mounting system easily lol :P
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twistedumbrella:
If it isn't 3, then my phone must love me to keep using it anyway.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] metalspring:
did you mean the mtdblock part? heh, i dont know its really odd it seems to work no matter what number i put for it???

I just thought it was supposed to be mtdblock4 because thats what "mount" reported it as??? like i said i dont know a ton about this stuff so maybe certain setups change it???

at any rate, we should get back on topic here on in though :p
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twistedumbrella:
Thanks mom. It is on topic. If there is a file that needs to be pushed, you do have to know the right command. 3 and 4 both work because it is technically more than one block, but the one you choose can limit what you have access to.

I figured out the OMX errors. Moto likes to be a pita with using specialized, but undocumented stuff from TI. Once I finish this mecha build (just rebuilt the camera from the ground up) I can run another test. I was able to configure the source to handle both devices without trying to use stuff from one in the other (the issue with display that was happening) so things should start moving again.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] TheLoonyRebel:
Thanks for all the hard work twistedumbrella.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twistedumbrella:
Last time I spoke too soon so this time I will go with it's getting really close.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Bunie89:
Hey Umbrella person!

Just wanted to say nice job and i hope you get this rom running stable! I'm sure there are alot of people (Including myself) That dont post, but check your thread every day for updates! your latest build didnt run on my phone (Was checking, im really excited about this rom)

Once you do get it stable, i wanted to request you "keep it clean" alot of rom devs expecially for the droid, like to tinker with roms, renaming apps and putting ugly themes on it. just a request but, keep it clean ICS or CM9 if a merge is possible. (Though no worries, im going to be using this rom no matter what you do to it XD ♥)

Just wanted to show you support! I know this process is frustraiting at times, i've seen many devs quit long before this point.

EDIT: The current build (Tue Feb 28 12:44:27 EST 2012) still does not run on my Droid. Sits at "M" Logo. will give it 10 minutes but, i dont expect anything.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] TheLoonyRebel:
Curious since I see that the latest build is Tue Feb 28 15:40:40 EST 2012... how do I know I'm getting that build since the file name seems to be the same as the previous builds? I'd hate to grab this only to find out I grabbed an older build.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twistedumbrella:
There is still something preventing hardware composer, but the md5 prints out with each build for reference.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] TheLoonyRebel:
Here's my logcat from the build I downloaded. Looks like the same issue still. Hope this helps.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Bunie89:
Hey Guys!

A few posts have me worried. What phone is Umbrella's rom actually for? Milestone or Droid? It says Droid in the post but, ive seen the word Milestone tossed around in here. It also says Sholes, im not sure if thats the Milestones code name too, or not. someone clearify? :3
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] metalspring:
Droid only

this is the one you'd want for milestone

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1445209
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Bunie89:
Thanks! But, i actually have a Droid. was worried that was why the rom didnt work. i guess its just broken right now? nobody has confirmed yet if this will or wont run (At its current build)

EDIT: Also, not sure if it matters, but they got the Camera functional on the Droid X, Bionic, Etc. Perhaps the source over there can help get it running here?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] teddyearp:
Thanks twisted for your hard work. I wish those who come to this thread asking for a handout would spend as much effort reading up on it as you do getting this rom working.

Folks, the title of this thread says Pre-Pre-ALPHA which means it is not a daily driver, and if you want to know which one works and which one has the most stuff working, please, please take the time to carefully read the whole thread. For now it seems as though the jan05 in the OP has the most stuff working, then you need to read how to strip down the gapps and how to make the market work properly. However twisted seems to be working hard on totally getting everything working, but as of yet his stuff won't boot.

This is not aimed at all the posters in this thread, I hope that is obvious.

Finally, as far as mtdblk3 or mtdblk4 I have found in my limited experience that

mount -o remount,rw /dev/mount/null /system

works just fine. Now I need a life for even remembering that one, hehehe.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] kabaldan:
Sorry for an intrusion here, but:

hwcomposer depends on dsscomp (kernel). At omapzoom, there is a work in progress on hwcomposer/dsscomp for omap3 that will not depend on omap4's tiler. But that work is still highly unfinished.

Also, that dsscomp depends on ICS release of SGX PVR kernel driver/userspace libs. But there is no ICS release for SGX 530 revision 121. So far, there's only SGX DDK 1.8 rowboat release that is only for revision 125. Although there is a hope for rev 121 ICS release sometime in the next quarter, it's certainly not available at this time.

So, how do you plan to overcome these issues? You're teasing people with "getting really close", but... are you? Really?

Some links of interest:

[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twistedumbrella:
You're talking about building a graphics acceleration hwcomposer for updated 121 drivers. I am talking about the default hwcomposer and updated driver support for 125. So yes, I am. Thanks.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] TheLoonyRebel:
Logcat from the latest build (Tue Feb 28 22:44:13 EST 2012).
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] kabaldan:
I see, you mean the software emulation of hardware composer.

And I meant the real hardware composer for omap3 devices.

But what means the bit about 125? The hardware used in sholes is SGX530 revision 121. Drivers/libs for SGX530 rev 125 are of no use on OMAP 3430 device...
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twistedumbrella:
Backward compatibility. If everything went off only the exact revision it was made for, there would be no wifi, sound, etc for any older phone on ICS ever. My thunderbolt uses graphics drivers from a 3.0 kernel made for a Samsung Galaxy. I don't see it being that different from the Droid using Droid2 libs, since in the last working version I released it already did.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Bunie89:
Question to Umbrella (Or anyone who knows?)

What is this leankernal 184Mhz? do i install it? Will it give any improvement on my CM7 rom? the worst that could happen would be that id need to reinstall the CM7 rom yes? :S or is it only for your upcoming rom?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twistedumbrella:
Its for the HTC thunderbolt.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] metalspring:
anyone have a link to the last twisted build that boots? i really want to try it out and see the difference
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twistedumbrella:
Sadly, even I don't have a link to it. I am still trying to figure out what got corrupted that is preventing a successful boot. Looking into all these ifdef items for qcom, since it seems some of them are screwing with other builds.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] TheLoonyRebel:
Argh... I was hoping my logcats would help out on that. :(
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twistedumbrella:
Well in a way it did. It confirmed it is the nativeframebuffer that is tanking, but I am not sure what isn't being called during the build that should, but i also found I some pretty decent errors on all devices that may have had a part in it.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] metalspring:
well, im going to try to dive into developing and building roms so hopefully i can be of more help and even build from your github source...that is if i can get everything set up right

and would dmesg provide better data than logcat?

in the meantime, thanks for picking up where kfazz left off, and i think cushzero is going to contact you about the build of ics he is trying to build too
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] slaZzz:
Depends on where the error is. dmesg for kernel log (e.g. wifi driver not loading, error code from that, etc.). logcat for Android logs (e.g. Android services/apps failing etc.).
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] donhwyo:
http://www.github.com/TwistedPlayground seems to be down at least from my phone for the last few days. Any body else seeing that? Or have a link that works?

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/cushzero/198004-cushzero-2-3-7-v2-1-5-a.html

I might, actually. I forget im a file horder sometimes. i had one that ran like poo (No offence Twisted, your work amazes me. Long way to go though ^^) maybe ill look into it. im pretty lazy.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twistedumbrella:
I'm not offended, I know all people here have to compare is the zip file for the specific device they're on. It's not easy getting one source to build multiple different devices when one device doesn't support the build. The best way to compare is to look at the common source for the motorola devices https://github.com/cyanogendefy

The difference isn't just a driver here or there, it is practically the entire build. What I have been trying to do is remove the need for one source for this and another for that and get them all to play nice together. I have just been getting distracted by a lot of new stuff with the qualcomm (HTC) phones.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Bunie89:
Hehe, good. I feel like i probably shouldnt even say this because it isnt my place, but please dont get distracted too much. You really are the Droids only hope of getting a Usable ICS Rom. I spent several days looking for an ICS Rom for the Droid before i stumbled upon this thread. Your really all thats out there, as far as ive seen. Alot of people are depending on you! :D

I know this is stressful, ive seen tons of threads where the developer gets frustrated, distracts himself with something else, and never returns. Don't abandon us, too! :(

I believe the phrase "Get Back On The Horse" Sums it up :P
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] metalspring:
cushzero is currently working on an ics rom for the droid 1 on droidforums, if kfazz comes back im sure he'll get back to work on this, and steeldroid on droidforums will be working on an ics rom soon too...so dont fret, we have quite a few working on it now, just give props to kfazz that got this all started by proving everyone wrong and showing that this little droid can run ics :D

and props to everyone working on getting this fully working
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twistedumbrella:
Very true. All I was really doing was getting some updates, but then the other devices I was on picked back up and there I really am the only hope for certain things. I will be working on it but it seems like there are quite a few others that are more focused working even faster.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] cowsquad:

Hey twisted, the gapps under the droid on the playground... is that just for the droid? Reason I ask is I installed it last night but it still has nfc and all nfc does is force close over and over... it was hell removing it.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Bunie89:
Epic! Great to see some progress! get the hardware acceleration down and ill switch to this rom :D
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] TheLoonyRebel:
Wait... is there a new build out that I'm not seeing on the Twisted Playground page?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Bunie89:
I'm guessing he's withholding the build a bit to add a few more tweaks before he's happy with it. could be wrong though.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twistedumbrella:
There is no build currently. Omx changes aren't fixed for omap yet.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] TheLoonyRebel:
Thanks for the clarification. I saw the post about gapps not working so I didn't know if some build was out that I wasn't seeing. Hopefully the current issue keeping things from booting up will be fixed sooner or later.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] cowsquad:
No activity here :(
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Bunie89:
I know, i worry about this rom too. :(

Still lots of updates every day. Not all Droid specific but should still help.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] TheLoonyRebel:
The hold up right now is trying to fix the issue causing the phone to stay stuck on the "M" on bootup. Hopefully once that's fixed then things will get moving. Be patient on this a bit folks. :)

In the meantime I do highly recommend checking out the newly released Steel Droid 10. I got it on my D1 right now. Runs fantastic and has a very nice ICS like look to it.

Can't wait for the next ICS release though! Keep up the great work here.

twisted did you drop the project? :(
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] twistedumbrella:
For now. I did however find the fixes for the colors (a stray commit from months ago) and a hack for when hwa is unavailable for anyone continuing on it.

Currently I am too wrapped up in 6 other phones that are msm to keep going back and making fixes for omap one at a time.

Guys, im newbie here and wana ask did any1 had try out the CM9 ICS for MS?

i did several time, 1st time i tried and the camera was not working. The second time i try, camera feature is ok, but i having problem to get the superuser working. Any kind soul out there have the solution for this?

I had to jump back to CM7 after try out CM9 yesterday....

any good suggestion ?

Way to let me down. :(
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] ruvort:
Kinda harsh isn't it? Twisted put his own free time into working on this and got a lot of progress done. I applaud him in his efforts and hope he knows how appreciative we are of his work. I can definitely understand that he has too much on his plate and needs to drop this for now.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] cowsquad:
I totally agreed. Nexus one is an older phone and is getting more updates than us. Well time to stick with miui.us
