[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] honnes:
I unfortunately can't put a catlog here anymore, but I can say that it's working now! :D Good start of a working day/week :).

What the exact problem is a mystery, and I think it will stay that way.

What I've done is putting the old dreamimg.nbh back on the phone, and started the whole rooting thing all over. The only difference, in actions that I've been doing, is that I did not pick the *cyan* coloured RA Recovery this time.

As for the question if I ran any custom ROM before on this phone, I only used the 'default' rooted ROM so far. On my other G1, things worked like a charm.

Anyway, I just got the 'setup wizard' from Frayo on my screen, so I think I'll start working with it and enjoying it!

I feel a bit silly that I never thought of doing the whole thing over earlier :)

Thanks for the help and input, and I hope that anyone else facing this issue will get things worked out too.

I think it's probably based on his previous experience, and the fact that I said something in my previous post like "I did get one ROM to work, but just not 100%. The market wasn't in the apps list, I had no lockscreen (every button activates the phone instantly), my dial (phone) key is not working, nor was my home-button." must have given him the last bit of confirmation he needed :).
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankdrey:
I think it was that you were flashing a kernel after the ROMs...

You're not supposed to do that for most ROM

And yes about google apps

I think it is the entire google services framework

Ill try look into the code (if there is code for gapps:P)

And ill see what's up
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gallagmj:
I had a 2.3.4 Incredible, but then was able to downgrade to 2.2, root, and turn S-off, after doing this everything was working perfectly for a few minutes, and then I went to turn on the wifi. Every time I attempt to turn on wifi, it immediately gives me an error. I suspect its not a hardware issue, because I just rooted and what not. I made a backup with clockworkmod before rooting the downgraded 2.2, and then after I managed to root it, I restored that backup. Did that restoration screw up the wifi? 3G works fine, I receive and can make calls and texts, bluetooth works, it just the Wifi error. Also, after downgrading to 2.2 the Inc keeps asking if I want to update, do I? Or will that get rid of my root and S-off and what not? Is it a matter of ROMs? I have been planning on putting on CyanogenMod, will that fix this wifi issue? Thanks

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] supergaijin:
did you try formatting your sd card via a card reader or something? did you customize your phone at all?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] ken_ping:
Nop..didn't modified or change anything at all.But if i format the sd card and directly put it in the phone does it will directly convert to ext4 or format that the phone needed or do i need to anything after format the sd card??

The problem was with the camera that in the setting menu to save picture switch to sd-card but cannot it just shows the phone(in grey colour) can't select to sd-card.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] supergaijin:
formatting to et4 only affects the internal sd, not the external. if you're trying to put photos on the external but it's not working, that's why I asked if you tried formatting.

[Gen8 General] juannm:
Hello! I've been just a reader for some months, my questions have been always already answered here for basic things (rooting, performance tips etc) but now it's the time to register and start participating :-) I am a professional programmer, just have been "out" of the development world for the last 1+ year, so I'm a bit untrained now...

I was thinking on buying a BeagleBoard for trying some programming in it, just wanted to see what's the power of that board when doing image processing stuff (namely playing with OpenCV). But, before spending those $130 in one, I realised that my Archos A101IT has almost the same board (SoC), well actually even a bit faster (BeagleBoard comes with OMAP3530 while A101IT comes with OMAP3630).

The BeagleBoard works with a linux Kernel for the OMAP architecture, so what would be the closest to bare-bones thing I could get for the A101? If this was Desktop, I'd answer "Debian with the lightest Desktop setup and OpenCV libraries installed", but in this architecture I'm lost.

I see a lot of "custom kernel for you", "Ubuntu over Android" and stuff like that, but I don't get if that's what I'm looking for or just that people here are building replacements to the underlying Android kernel. As you see I'm not interested at all on the Android part of the A101.

Hope you can give me some orientation...
[Gen8 General] devwithzachary:
That isn't anything particaly solid but the best you can do is either install one of the os from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1198389

or look at archos sde http://www.archos.com/support/support_tech/updates_dev.html?country=gb&lang=en
[Gen8 General] alex@debi:
I'm not sure about what really you want to know, but would note the following:

It's possible to run a Linux kernel on Archos, and Ubuntu on it will be "Ubuntu over Linux kernel". The problem is that Archos needs an Archos-friendly kernel, and it's so tweaked that I don't know at what point Linux ends there and Android starts. So here is another problem: it seems rather hard to make the mainline kernel running on Archos. This means that you'll stay with 2.6.29 till the end of your Archos' days... But if you're happy with custom-made GPL'ed 2.6.29 by Archos -- installing "Debian with the lightest Desktop" on it should be no problem. On Archos-Debian.org they've already made a few rootfs images.
[Gen8 General] juannm:
Question: justo out of curiosity, do you know if the Debian compilation from (www .debian-archos.com) is made by following this (dev. openaos.org/wiki/Debian%20gen8) ??

In the other hand, I have just installed Urukdroid 1.6 over my previous system (letting the installer to wipe my previous partitions and creating new ones), and now I'm going to try the Angstrom "rootfs.img" option (that I copied somewhere before installing Urukdroid) and also the Debian beta2 one (altough its a wooping 3,8 GB file... I wonder what did this people install in it? KDE? hahah).

Then for cross-compiling from my desktop computer, I guess all I need is the ARM Gcc version, right? I'm in Kubuntu 11.10 so that would be the g++-4.6-arm-linux-gnueabi package (just tell me if this is not the right direction...)

I guess compiling and copying some "hello world" binary file to the Debian or Angstrom in the tablet would be enough for running it, am I right?
[Gen8 General] alex@debi:
Probably, it's better to send an email to OpenAOS people about how they made their package. Also I think it's not a "compilation", but an "installation": standard Debian binaries installed over Archos-specific 2.6.29 kernel. I don't think they recompiled the kernel or built Debian from stratch. The way shown at http://dev.openaos.org/wiki/Debian gen8 is a working one (at least, in general: I don't know about the goodies like wifi, I didn't get that far).

3.8Gb -- it includes free space too: rootfs.img is like a virtual HDD, it contains the system, user data, and free space.

For cross-compilation you need a toolchain: a cross-compiler plus some other tools. Look for Mentor (Codesourcery), Emdebian, OpenEmbedded, Buildroot, etc. Here is a ready-made custom built one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1328027 . Maybe Kubuntu has their own build-in toolchain too, I don't know. Which one is better for you, and how to install and use it -- it depends on many things, actually. Generally: yes, g++-arm-linux-gnueabi looks like a cross-compiler for ARM. And yes, if you cross-compile a "Hello, world!" correctly -- it will run on Archos.
[Gen8 General] scholbert:
Hi juannm,

welcome to XDA-Developers :D

I was able to buy an A101it with was a brick few weeks ago and merely had the same intent. Thought of getting an OMAP3 platform to fiddle around with.

I started to collect some information of the hardware in use.

Luckily i was able to repair it.

For information about that look here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1199450

The design of the board is pretty clean and apart form running Android OS, Archos offers the SDE as people already pointed out.

You might also start from scratch and build up Ubuntu or Debian images for this device.

In fact i consider it nearly perfect for such experiments.

What exactly do you mean?

It's too much to built up rootfs from scratch...

Need a starting point?

So basically you'll need to know how the boot process works on these devices, how rootfs is stored and how the rootfs gets mounted during boot up.

First i recommend to install SDE from Archos to get the alternate bootloader installed.

This way you might use bootmenu to load custom kernels and install your own rootfs on top of this.

It's too much to explain it all, so look around and read first.

Just in short:

Stock OS uses squashfs images as rootfs, which are mounted ro if you don't tweak anything.

SDE uses uncompressed EXT2 image, as far as i remember.

It might be a good idea to install UrukDroid (this will wipe out SDE, but leaves Stock OS untouched).

Afterwards you got true EXT4 filesystem, which is still Android but offers a lot of useful tools.

You'll need some background of course and it might be useful to tweak the bootloader to accept the first kernel to be unsigned as well.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1018260

As already pointed out the kernel needs hardware specific tweaks to run on the Archos devices.

So does the Beagleboard kernel.

The vanilla kernel won't do it on these platforms.

Anyway there are some projects which use standard ARM distributions (e.g. Ubuntu, Debian) to get a working Linux on top of a custom kernel, which is based on stock kernel sources (2.6.29-omap1).

If you intent to change to a newer kernel version, there's more work to do.

There'd been some progress for 2.6.35 recently.

It really depends on what you expect to have working on the device.

I might even write more on this, but i guess you'll need to get a better overview yourself.

All i might say is, that Archos give good support for the open development (at least compared to other manufacturers).

They keep their git repo up to date and try to fix bugs as well.

So start hacking and have fun!!

[Gen8 General] letama:
Hi there,

Just wanted to add few tidbits on top of what Scholbert said which I agree with 100%:

If you want to tweak the bootloader like Scholbert said to have three different bootable kernels (main android, sde, recovery), contact me first, I have few resources that could help you and add extra safety.

However, I believe that it's not needed at first and safer to get a hold on the platform to go sde route first.

Compared to beagleboard, you won't loose much with the a101, the thing I miss the most is a serial port to help with kernel dev, but even this is possible if you're comfortable with opening the a101 and soldering.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1428497

Both versions appear to be working with Eugene's ICS Kernel:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1432051

Remember: Both ICS ROMs I've suggested are in beta phase and can have some issues, so be sure to read the forums before jumping in.

*note* I'm using Neobuddy's ICS Passion (default kernel) as my daily driver. The current issue (10.6) has a few issues that should be known:

1) When receiving an incoming call some phones require the user to push mute/unmute for the microphone to work properly [I use a headset and don't have this issue]

2) When the phone goes into a deep sleep, it can create a couple issues: may have to turn off/on the screen for the touch aspect to work and GPS will require a phone reboot to work.

These two things don't bother me at all for the awesomeness for ICS... it's taken my phone from "worthless PoS" to "ohhhh snaps, i love my phone."

Hopefully this additional information will help you and possibly make your phone more enjoyable again!

Hello everybody! I need some help here. I've been unable to find someone with a similar problems to me so, here goes. I was trying to root my Samsung Galaxy S i9000M Vibrant (Bell), and well I guess something went wrong. I got to the part where I put the Kernel zimage in the Voodoo/disable-lagix folder and after I clicked start on the Heimdall Frontend my phone just basically went black. Now at first, I could start it up and it would go through the galaxy s logo and then permanently stay on a screen that displayed "Overstock. Lighter. Faster. Stronger." and I thought well my phone is bricked so I searched around and found a program called One-click unbrick and tried doing that. That just made it worse and took away the overstock screen and just left the screen blank. So I searched more and used this Odin Method for Vibrant, and that again made it worse. It can now only go into download mode, the loading battery animation, or just a full white screen that flashes on and off about every 5 seconds. I'm pretty desperate and can't find help anywhere else. Any help here???
