[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Marko Indaco:
hi guys, i visit the links posted but i'm still problems with that. Using watchdog app i notice that al least once a day it show me warning message about high use of cpu. In my case the process is kworker/u8: (here there's a number from 0 to 6)

My question is: what specific process causing that? There's a way to know it? I ask it because i don't think is battery releted, cause battery is very good, excluding for the monitor usage which is what consumes more...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RTouris:
I know that this is a really old topic but seeing that there's still at least one fresh enquiriy i thought i'd chime in...what in effect may indeed help you is wiping the cache (it did help me on several kworker/u occassions in the past). To do so you have to access the respective menu by booting your tablet while pressing the up volume rocker and the power button simultaneously. Hope this helps :)

So I was just wondering about how to get started developing custom roms for the g2x? Also, what programs would be helpful etc. Thanks!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] IRASadPanda:
You'll need ubuntu as an operating system to start off with....
[T-Mobile LG G2x] vipaman:
And the cm source..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] SefEXE:
Hah, I wouldn't mind trying this out myself.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
Along with a decent computer and basic terminal skills in linux.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] vipaman:
You will also need Eclipse classic
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jcbofkc:
I thought about it, but then I went to this site and decided it was beyond my skill set. Start here.

Dude that site is for app development for rom development u need to head to this site

[T-Mobile LG G2x] shazam1203:
Do I need to know a programming language at all? I know a little java but not enough to do anything with, I am very familiar with ubuntu and linux in general. what would I need to get started?

Thanks everyone for all your replys!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jcbofkc:
Sorry. I pasted the wrong link. Was in a hurry. Thanks for posting the correct one.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] vipaman:
Ohh...u will need a from kitchen also....and programming language.... ummm Java is imp for starters...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] shazam1203:
Is there a certain kitchen that you would recommend or which one do I need for G2x?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] vipaman:
Depends on what ur going to build from.......are u going to build from stock or CM sources.....according to that u should download a kitchen but I guess there is a kitchen which is very gud for the g2x...
[T-Mobile LG G2x] shazam1203:
I was planning on building from stock, and mainly just starting out with themes etc for now.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] vipaman:
So u will need the stock source for gingerbread
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Mr. Apocalypse:
Themes are a great starting point. Learning which apks control what is how it begins, learning how to manipulate how it looks turns into manipulating how it performs. Smali and Java are languages you need to be able to read at the least for the OS itself, C/C ++ knowledge would be nice for kernels. A basic knowledge of Linux is required if starting from pure source.

I can confirm this. A friend has the Sensation w/ ARHD 3.6.13 and I have the Sensation w/ARHD6.21. His Skype video looks normal, while my Skype video is green. Great if you want to look like the Hulk, otherwise not so much. :D

There is no fix, It's an ICS Problem.
[HTC Sensation] svcr0c0:
It's only an issue on certain phones/tablets running ICS. I had the Galaxy Nexus which obviously only has ICS and Skype video was just fine.

Mike will update ARHD 6.3 today, and I'll give it a try. I hope HTC fixed this problem in their latest base.
[HTC Sensation] alistair404:
Hi,

Any news on whether it's working with the new base or not?

Sorry for seeming impatient - dying to give ICS a try but can't until Skype video is working.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
mine

I've released the recovery under a new name; out of respect to Team Hydro and the original creator of the Dooderbutt image the release is at Cannibal Open Touch, the binary is also available directly on Goo Manager under 'dev/IngCr3at1on/Otter/CannibalOpenTouch/' or direct @ Goo.im (we will be creating a XDA thread for the next release).

-----

A word about kernels: to my extreme annoyment I have yet to get the wireless modules for the kernel to compile on my machine (currently I have given up on this effort, a single module is not worth the headaches) to that end the original JackpotClavin kernel is still included in the source (I do not have source to this and I believe it is the cause of at least some of the issues when running this rom) for the time being please flash an alternate kernel after installing the rom. I would eventually like to replace this kernel with a non-overclocked performance kernel (for OC you will have to install it separate). If someone has a kernel which they would like to see added to the source (this includes Hashcode or IntersectRaven) please fork my device repo and open a pull request with the replacement zImage and modules (include a link to source in your pull request please) I will test it and barring errors merge it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] JoshuaLintag:
Is there anything new?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
I appreciate this. thanks.with it being source, u should leave it as is imo, kernals are out there and usually get cooked into custom roms, which is what I've been interested in learnong lately. so again, thanks
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
I agree that most custom roms will have custom kernels and that's part of why I don't want to include an OC kernel; as it is the stock kernel that's included has some issues though and I'd like to replace it with something more stable (ideally a slightly optimized non-OC stock) similar to Hashcodes kernel. I have tried compiling Hashcodes kernel as a replacement (intent on making some small tweaks if I did) but as previous mentioned I keep hitting walls with the wifi module, it's very annoying.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
hmm, I do suggest looking at intersects source maybe? before he updated with oc, his kernal was optimized nicely without oc.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
Aye same issue though sadly; wall with wifi module (I suppose I could build the kernel than pull the wifi module from someone elses but that feels like cheating lol). At this point I'm so annoyed with the wifi module though compiling a kernel is one of the last things on my list, this is why I have requested that someone else do one and add it via pull request.

On that note pull requests on any of my repos are always welcome (anything to fix my half baked swiss cheese hackings)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
after I curl repo, I get the info showing it was created. I than chmod it, than attempt to repo init and I get repo not installed. but when I check my files, its there. but when I call repo init it keeps saying file doesn't exist. its my first time really building in ubuntu, sorry
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
Could try. '. repo' personally I've never had Ubuntu require this for the repo command but most Linux commands do require the dot. If it works I'll update the OP and readme that info was in the old readme but for some reason I removed it.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
when i run .repo i get .repo not found.

so i try ./repo and i repo not installed, run repo init to install it here...

so i try ./repo init and i get this error msg lol.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
Alright; just got off work had a chance to actually look. First of all let me say sorry. Entirely my fault (sort of) it's what I get for ripping the walk through from someone elses readme without confirming it...

use this instead

curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo

updating the OP now
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
that was the second thing I tried. first u gotta mkdir ~/bin than curl ~/bin/repo than chmod ~/bin/repo than mkdir /cm7 CD /cm7 but when I repo or. repo or. /repo I still get the error.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
Fair enough. I'm not sure but this

almost looks like it is pointing towards an error with python, did you go through and install all the requirements from : http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html ?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
wow i feel dumb lol. so i mistyped a few of the required install packages i guess. i went back thru them and watched each one finish installing, and i am now compiling from your modified sources. time for a sandwich lol thanks

Hey,

So I flashed this rom, and is was working quite well, no problems at all and then I turned off my screen after using facebook or something and now it doesn't do anything anymore.. Nothing when I push the power button once, twice, hold it, plug in charger, connect to laptop. Nothing...

Can anyone please help me?

I only bought this thing 6 days ago.

Thanks

Hold the power button for twenty seconds. Then try turning it on again.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] remmie80:
Wow thanks a lot, I really thought I bricked it:)
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
Yeah sorry, SOD issues are kernel related I believe; part of why I am wanting to replace that kernel. Try an alternate like intersect ravens or hashcodes kernel to see if it doesn't happen again.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
Smirkit has been updated for easy installation of the new recovery! Easier setup has been implemented, check the sticky for details!
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
Seems I broke the signature again on the rom. I just flashed it fine it, it works; just ignore it for now (if using COT Recovery you can simply approve it to flash), I'm done for the night but I'll look into it at a later time.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
Does the kindle recovery support '.orsnoconfirm' and '.orsalwaysreboot', or is that just on drews LS670 one.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
Indeed. Its listed in the release thread.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
The new Cannibal Open Touch one does (I noticed earlier I set the version number wrong in the make file :( or rather failed to update it). Old versions of course do not as that wasn't implemented until the most recent release; those were Smirkis' idea more or less, I wouldn't have left them out of the kindle lol.

There is an added feature as well that we discussed previously (that was not merged into the ls670 recovery; there's some issues w/ amend that I couldn't resolve, if you really want the feature hound Drew to port it cause he thinks it's unneeded), that's the ability to approve the flashing of a zip that has failed a signature check (only during an ORS function).

Edit: Looks like Smirkis answered for me
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Pkt_Lnt:
I searched this entire thread, read and reread posts one and two in this thread, and find no mention of kindle recovery support for '.orsnoconfirm' and '.orsalwaysreboot'.

That was my question, kindle support for the new features. I am one of those weirdos who reads reads reads and rereads posts of new features and new programs before I try them, and then has instructions on screen for reference when I install. I saw it in the LS670 release, which is why I came here, searched, then asked. :D
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
Out of respect to Jerry and Team Hydro I released our recovery on AC (Jerry afterall created dooderbutt) there is most certainly mention of the .overrides currently being discussed. Either way I'm glad you like the feature.

[Kindle Fire Android Development] e495957:
When will this be released officially through ROM Manager? SBlood have you gotten in touch with Koush so we can update it?
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
download goomanager. its a open source version of rom manager. and this is on there already.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
To answer the second question first; no, I have not contacted Koush (the reason is in the answer to the first question).

Firstly I'm assuming you are talking about the recovery and not the ROM. As far as the recovery is concerned it's particularly deviated from CWM. We have a basic CWM shell from gingerbread with touch controls added from Team Utter Chaos (these controls are not directly compatible with ICS but I believe Napstar has been working on that). We of course need part of the ICS capabilities for the kernel. In my original attempts I imported 2 things, Retouch Binaries and ICS ext4_utils; at least one of these is what's allowed us to flash 3.0 boot images (I never did narrow down which one being as it works ;) ). Problem with that is the ext4_utils are part of system/extras, until I get off my ass and rewrite a new static lib to store them I have to swap these out manually between the recovery and the ROM (this requires me to clobber the entire out directory else stuff fubars quite a bit). Putting the building issues aside for a moment I've gone and ripped out the e2fs tools (admittedly in the beginning that was partly by accident but there's no reason to add them back in as there's no reason to be partitioning sdcard/ on the kindle {especially from recovery}), than I added a theme changer and openrecoveryscript support (which Koush and CM already rejected from CWM). If you want official support from Koush you are probably going to have to wait for Hashcode's recovery to be considered stable.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] smirkis:
sblood, have u tried contacting goo to see if they can host your recovery as the flash able version when it searches for one? it currently says none available, but yours is ORS compatible. would be awesome/easy if it just flashed your recovery when prompted.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
Not yet but I was considering that one.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] KemikalElite:
Thank you very much for making a stable CWM recovery!

This is perfect timing because someone in my family wants to get a Kindle Fire as well except they've seen mine running custom builds and now they wouldn't want to go anywhere near stock GB.

So the best thing to do would be to put a simple, stable AOSP ROM with no hacks, mods, or tweaks. But I've been trying to find an easy way for them to update the ROM. I myself was using CWM with ROM Manager to automatically install updates on my own Kindle Fire (because ROM Manager is faster and I'm lazy lol) but then it got recalled due to bricks or whatever.

I'm just wondering if this CWM recovery works with Goo Manager because with TWRP on my current Kindle Fire I do the steps to flash an update with the app, then it reboots into recovery and just sits there. I have CWM Touch on my Nexus and it does the same thing. Reboots into recovery and sits there. With ROM Manager it reboots and flashes the ROM as it should.

So maybe someone can help me. Why does Goo Manager not want to work with my recovery??
[Kindle Fire Android Development] e495957:
Oh I had no idea this existed. I've always hated ROM Manager for being closed source. Does goomanager have official CyanogenMod support?

Yes, that does sound pretty involved. Why don't you team up with Hashcode and help eachother out? You could probably even join the CM team.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] Sblood86:
It's actually pretty simple; CWM by default, as mentioned above does not include the OpenRecoveryScript 'Engine' created by DeesTroy for usage in TWRP (there was a patch submitted to gerritt but it was rejected because ORS is redundant with the presence of the RomManager API). Drew Walton (of Team Hydro) and myself hacked the ORS Engine into the recovery for the LGE-LS670 and VM670 as well as the recovery discussed (not directly featured) here (at the same time we made some theme changes and that's why the recovery was re-released as CannibalOpenTouch).

ORS changes :

https://github.com/IngCr3at1on/android_bootable_recovery/commit/ac6e81aebb9fd38367a80879f6f41bb4ac126b00

I don't think so but AOKP does.

Hashcode and I have discussed a few things in the past he's using a different touch control method and is trying to be as close to inline with CWM as possible. Currently the recovery isn't the problem, never was in fact. If the assumed cause of the bricks is correct (it should be but the only way to confirm with absolute certainty is if someone tries to brick their device over and over) this was caused by a cap erase command in the kernel (well really a faulty mmc from samsung but the erase command is what triggers to fail); Hashcode has even fixed this but until someone can prove it's safe it's sort of just there.
[Kindle Fire Android Development] KemikalElite:
http://goo.im/cm

Short Answer: Yes

Long Answer: goo.im mirror (Goo Manager) provides official support for officially supported devices with official nightly builds.

The otter / Kindle Fire is not supported by the CM team. Supported by every other dev team ever but not CM. Other officially supported devices such as the maguro / GSM Galaxy Nexus can receive downloads with Goo Manager.

Hmm..I was a dev for the VM670 but I switched devices before the ICS branch stuff started happening so I guess I missed out.
