thanks for all the positive feeling in here..also i got a msg from someone that xboarder can help us compile stuff together so im seeing if i can setup irc and we'll go from there. i'll post on and irc channel opened asap..

edit: anyone know where we can setup irc im running into trouble because mIRc doesn't seem to wanna work with me :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kuraijay:
why not use the skyrocket irc?

2 things.

1: Xboarder said that he would help you guys fix graphics, so please contact him for that.

Yea I keep getting Error #2301 when I try to connect to #skyrocket. Anyone know why?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Shadeslayers:
That small snippet has a plethora of errors.

On topic: now that boarder is out of the picture can you see how (if) he fixed graphicsissues? Could lead to a solution..

Edit: wow didn't realize how many posts I've missed lately.too busy with school.

I'm good with c/c++ (no java, sadly) and dealing with Linux and a ton of other miscellaneous compsci stuff so my abilities are available.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wali01x:
thats just because i just started with c++ .. never studied this language before give me a month time you'll see a change..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Shadeslayers:
I would suggest learning c first.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wali01x:
well techincally according to my teacher c is an old language..rofl so im confused maybe i should drop the course :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] xcrazydx:
Iv'e been reading about c++. From what I gather it's the modern language. Most recommend starting on c++ instead of c.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wali01x:
so then i'll continue lol..

anyways i know that had plethora of errors its because i know my } in wrong places and also main void ; is missing from it and so forth.. and what android is based upon most of it is in java language which makes it blah to me right now. but xml or any c++ language i can work with ..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] kuraijay:
he said he knows how to fix the graphics issues
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] wali01x:
yeah x said anyone from our dev side needs help he knows he can get things started .. and kudos to you for c++/c pro i know its not easy and i just started so i can imagine. also ive chose to take c++,framework,php,java, and continue that programming field with a teacher ..it might be 50 yrs before im done lol and then still we might need to learn more ..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Shadeslayers:
I learned c++ first. And then I learned c. They are quite similar, but there are small differences. The biggest ones are that you use pointer arithmetic for arrays, which I find much more intuitive, and instead of cin and cout you use fprintf and fscanf, both of which are more useful. The one advantage of cin is that it handles strings much more nicely than fscanf does.. but in that case you can use fgets.

90% of the stuff you'll do in c++ you can do in c. It's only when you get into object oriented stuff that c++ is better/different.

And personally, I prefer fprintf and fscanf from c as opposed to cin and cout.

Yeah.. C is old. So is UNIX though. And Linux is like what 20 years now? (The kernel running our phone is linux based :P).

On topic: Do you top end devs have any suggestions for projects or whatever to become familiarized with this stuff. I've started reading the linux from scratch book, but that isn't really meant for android devices..

EDIT: Hey wali if you're dead set on learning c++ (it's not a horrible thing to do, I just believe that learning c gives you a better understanding of what's going on) then I would recommend w w w . learncpp.com it's how I taught myself c++.

Holy sh*t, was just doing some random debugging and I came out with a build that completely fixes the laggy graphics issue! Ahhh, I'm so excited. Will upload alpha2 later today. As for asking xboarder for help on some issues, the evervolv source he was using is a little different from the code aurora I've been doing my work with, as topprospect stated before. If xboarder can get on the same page as what I'm doing, I'd be happy to take some of his advice.

Note: As it turns out, I was missing two firmware files, and one lib file. I'll commit my changes to the github later today so you guys can see them.

I copied all of these over save for the libhardware_legacy.so which breaks the build, and I'm working on debugging a couple of the files as we speak.

If you know of any other files needed, or if you have success with any other combination, please either list it here or push it to my github.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] alphadog32:
Wait, so we have to edit the legacy lib so it doesn't brake the build right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] orlandoxpolice:
We had to edit libhardware legacy along with two others to get overclocking to work right on the i957. These libs have kernel overrides or something like that.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jomeister15:
This is great! I'll see if I can't incorporate this into my build later today.

Hmm... that's a difficult one. I'm going to keep working with xboarder and top to see what we can come up with. I think that we'll probably eventually get some basic things such as mms/calling working, but data might have to wait until samsung releases their ICS. Xboarder said it would require framework.jar edits, but I have to discuss just what he means by that. In any case, let's keep our fingers crossed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] alphadog32:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] alphadog32:
Okay by any chance, do you guys know smali? I'm trying to change framework.jar to enable bouncy overscroll. And what he means by framework.jar edits, is that signal and other stuff like that is incorporated in it, so you have to edit it. The classes.dex.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jomeister15:
Yep, this is what I used.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] romracer:
I'm still checking out the source and I probably won't have much time to mess with it until this weekend. Did you try compiling a kernel with the celox defconfig?

I'd try copying the msm8660_celox_usa_att_defconfig from arch/arm/configs in the Samsung GB release code over to kernel/arch/arm/configs under where you checked out Code Aurora's release.

Then when you compile, specify your own defconfig (they have an example on the wiki):

make -j4 KERNEL_DEFCONFIG=msm8660_celox_usa_att_defconfig

You might have to do some legwork first, such as prepping the kernel source tree and then "make oldconfig" to get the celox defconfig updated to Kernel 3.0. If that's required, you'd need to copy the .config back to msm8660_celox_usa_att_defconfig. You might also have to disable random things in the config depending on what Samsung has added.

Of course this is all speculation since I'm still checking the source out, but its where'd I start.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jomeister15:
Download GB kernel source now, will try this out when I get back to my external hard drive. Thanks for all your help with this; I hope one of us can get something working soon.

Edit: Ok, I've started the build with the new kernel config right now... Will get back to you when completed.

However when I run the command (make -j4 KERNEL_DEFCONFIG=msm8660_celox_usa_att_defconfig), it will run for awhile but then throw this weird error at me. Note: I'm compiling on my external hard drive since my linux partition is pretty small. Just to explain the whole /media directory.

You guys are gonna have me stay up all night. Good luck.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] romracer:
I'm not sure I see anything in that error that really indicates the problem. My source is still checking out but I'll give it a go from my end soon. You might try removing the -j4 or whatever from your make command. That will run a single make at a time which might make the actual error easier to identify (albeit slower, but sometimes slow and steady wins the race :P).

You can also check the readme that came from Samsung about building their kernel. They recommend a certain toolchain which isn't feasible for an AOSP build (I'm not sure how to do it anyway), but they also give the precursor steps I can't recall off the top of my head. make mrproper for example as well as the make defconfig step (which turns the defconfig into a .config which you can then "make oldconfig" under the new source to bring it up to speed; you can then copy that new .config over the old the defconfig so you have an updated defconfig to go on). Just throwing out ideas :P

Edit: Of course my checkout finishes right as I post. I'll have more time to dig in tomorrow while I'm avoiding doing real work.

Replacing the dhcpcd files from system/bin and system/etc gets wifi working with dhcpcd, but first I actually have to get wifi working in general. As for the sdcard, haven't tried that yet, but I might.

The problem is these fixes were built for xboarder's evervolv rom, which already had wifi working to an extent as well as the sdcard. To make matters worse, the source I used to compile (CAF) is different from the source xboarder used (evervolv). That means that each time we encounter a problem it will most likely have two different solutions.

TL;DR This will work only after I get the basics of wifi fixed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] LinuxNewb:
