Yep. They have like 8 teams play in the play offs. So there are 4 games first round, then you have 4 teams left, 2 games, and then the super bowl. Maybe you have a bit more teams at the beginning. In hockey you have 7 games between the teams before going to the next round.

I am trying to compile a custom kernel,

I succeed to build one but I can't boot him, when I load the kernel I go in to boot loop

I haven't made any real changes to this kernel I really just downloaded the source and compile it

The version match its a GB kernel 2.6.35.7 I disabled the lag fix, still it goes to boot loop.

any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
What source code did you try to use to build this kernel? Links would be awesome.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] logan123:
Well I tried this two

github.com/Krylon360/SGS4G_Kernel_GB
opensource.samsung.com/index.jsp (SGH-T959V-TMB_GB_Opensource.zip)

I did

make clean && make mrproper

make vibrantplus_rev00_defconfig

make -j8

and then I loaded the kernel via heimdall

Building the stock kernel

I have run in to a similar problem. One issue I had to get past is the stock rom source does not have have the initramfs included. It is needed so the kernel can boot into a file system before it can start loading loadable modules and mount the rom filesystem.

I have been able to get an initramfs by extracting it from the original rom, The issue I have is it is loading all modules, but the rom devices will not mount as the /dev directory is empty and the mount needs them to mount the file systems.

This may be off topic for this forum. If you want to PM me, I'm willing to let you know what I have found out.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
You should keep discussing it here since it does pertain to the phone and it'll be useful for future reference
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jigglynuts:
Agree with FB.

I have ran into the same problem. I was unable to find a way to get it beyond boot loop so I scratched the project. I am definitely curious on how to get this working.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mccabet:
DISCLAIMER

I am NOT a kernel developer, just a programmer that has done linux programming before, and is trying to understand and build the kernel.

I will share what I have found out through my attempts to build the stock rom as delivered from Samsung.

I have searched XDA and Googled the web in search of the answers I need with some success as well as dead ends. I am not looking to have the answers handed to me on a silver plate, but a few hints or links to point me in the right direction is helpful.

To start:

Recommended Hardware needed:

Search the XDA for AdamOutler threads on building the serial interface via the USB. Highly recommended reading as it helps to see what the kernel is doing when it is in the bootloop. All the important parts was purchased from his recommended supplier(s). Thanks AdamOutler for the information!

What I know about the samsung kernel source as delivered:

1) if you follow the readme in the kernel, it will build cleanly. However, it will NOT run, it will bootloop!!

2) If you intend to only build the stock kernel, I recommend making sure you are starting with a stock build installed on the phone. I suggest the same release version you are trying to build.

3) After you build the kernel and load it ( the zImage file is loaded via Heimdall ) the first problem I ran into was the initramfs. It is not included in the source and must be created from scratch or obtained from another kernel.

4) Once the initramfs is being built and included in the kernel, the next problem is the driver modules that are included, have to have the same version as the kernel. You will need to figure out the version by the kernel debug messages on the serial/usb interface mentioned above. Once the versions match, the kernel will load them.

This is where I am stopped... once the drivers are loaded, the init scripts mount the file systems. This does not happen with my kernel. I am still investigating this. I think it has to do with the /dev files for the mount points not being created/missing. I have not found the piece of info yet points me to the solution. Most of the links I have found pertain to linux on an x86/64 platform. I have found little on embedded linux and how it works.

That is all I have in a nutshell. Feel free to comment and ask questions. Remember to search! Use different forms of your search terms, use different working. I like to use the 'yippy.com' search engine as it places the results in categories.

Good luck!

Krylon's tree is stock, no changes.

It has all the problems I fixed in my tree.

I have a lot of uncommitted changes, but you can find my work at: https://github.com/bhundven/

Regardless of me being on xda or not, I am still working on sgs4g.

Aww hell bhundven! Refreshing to see you stop by!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] logan123:
Thank you everyone

mccabet, You actually saved me some time because those were my next two step

I was looking for the initramfs and I didn't find it...

Could you please share your?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mccabet:
I do not have my initramfs file available to me at work. So here is the info I used to get my copy. You will need an original rom release ( I used the heimdall one-click from bhundven ) to extract the zImage file from.

Here is the link to info on how extract your own initramfs from a kernel image (zImage):

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=Extract_initramfs_from_zImage

I used the improved script mentioned at the bottom of the page from:

https://github.com/mistadman/Extract-Kernel-Initramfs

After getting your initramfs, you will need to modify your vibrantplus_rev00_defconfig file and change the following parameter to point to your initramfs you extracted:

CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE="/path/to/initramfs"

Hope that helps.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] logan123:
Ok it seems like I was able to boot the kernel, no more boot loops thank to the initramfs but

The system isn't loading, it get stuck on the "Galaxy S 4G" page.

and when I load recovery it gives me lots of error so as

E:Can't mount /cache/recovery/log

E:failed to mount /cache (No such file or directory)

it goes on and on but its all the same...
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
I may be off-base, but do you know if /cache and the other file systems were the Samsung rfs filesystem or the ext4 filesystem? Standard recovery can't mount ext4 & if your kernel doesn't support it, then it won't be able to mount them, either.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] logan123:
I thought so too so I removed the lag-fix and return to rfs

but this is neither because apparently there are no stl devices :\

I pulled out the recovery log

http://pastebin.com/hDCNbdne

failed to mount '/dev/block/stl11' '/cache'(rfs) -> No such device

Now I feel like an idiot because I can't seem to find what is it in the kernel config

moreover I tired to pull a config from a working kernel and I basically got the same errors

Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] logan123:
Well the solution is simple, apparently version magic didn't load the kernel modules

for rfs_fat and fsr_stl...(you get the point)

now I can't to find way to compile them it seems as if someone removed them from the kernel tree and I can't load them either

I tired several modules from different kernel well all result in failure.

so any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] stephen_w:
I wish had some, man. I've never compiled a kernel for Android. At least, not yet. However the moduel code should be somewhere in the kernel tree. I believe Android is a layer on top of the Linux kernel so the source may be there.

I'm still reading about and learning the platform side of Android. Hopefully one of the devs around can provide some solid guidance.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] logan123:
Ok no offence but this kernel is worthless

even if I load the modules into the kernel I get a errors because of the unknown symbols

bahh any ideas anyone?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mccabet:
That is as far as I have gotten. The drivers for the RFS ( drivers/tfsr ) are not loading and therefore the /dev mount points do not exist. The default build config flags ( CONFIG_RFS_FSR=m and CONFIG_RFS_FSR_STL=m ) are to build the module as a loadable module. I have tried to build the module with no success. Still investigating when I have the time. I was even thinking of looking at the Epic 4G MTD build and trying that. The problem there is if I can not solve this problem, I probably solve it by trying the MTD conversion. ( Except to brick it.)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] RaverX3X:
if one of you kernel devs gets a bootable MTD kernel hit me up... I got a rom that needs some mtd loving :P
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mccabet:
I do not claim to be a kernel developer. I am trying to understand and build the base kernel. If you can help me get past this, that would be great! I need to take baby steps before I can start walking. Once I get the build to work and boot completely, I'm game to go further, but have to get to a working base before we can continue. I understand the more experienced developers don't want to be bothered. I understand they have other jobs, and families. So do I. They became as great as they are, through hard work, experience and asking the right people the right questions. Asking the right question also applies to Google. The query only returns the matches to your query. Change a few words, get different results.

I'm not looking for someone to hold my hand, I want to learn by doing, not having it done for me. Just point be to the bread crumb trail, and I will follow.

Right now, I am at a stand still until I figure out why it is not loading the tfsr module. If that is even the problem.

If I make any progress, I'll post it here for all. If I am wrong, please correct me so we all don't go down the wrong path.

Thank you for listening.

Let me start off saying I'm fascinated by phone rooting and all the things that are possible and I'm so thankful for these forums so shout out to all the devs. My amazing girlfriend bought me my first smartphone for Christmas (dinc) and I'm amazed by it. Thanks to these forums I've successfully downgraded from 2.3.4 to 2.2 and rooted it. I'm obsessed with flashing roms now, but kushdecks ics has me I love the look, but sorry for the irrelevant info to my question. I'm using incredikernel ics idk the version its the latest one and I enabled zram overclocked to the Max setting and set to smartassv2. Now I was wondering is there any way to tweak it a little more to speed it up and get more out of the battery? I have the 2150 battery but it still drains it like a mug.

You should try wiping battery stats from CWM (might be superficial on the GS2)

Also you could try wiping your device (factory reset)

Make sure that you cycle your battery from 1% to 100% and vice versa. Its the best way to take care of your battery's health.
