I couldn't get this to work on my phone. I've actually tried everything and haven't had any luck. I would have loved to check it out on my own, but until they get it to work on all i9100s, yeah, it's kinda like a no-go for most people (i've got the european i9100, which is probably the same as the international version).

Yes it is the international version not european version :D

I can't get any builds to boot on my SGS2 neither! :rolleyes:

Anyone tried working this latest release?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Makrilli:
flashing in 30 secs

EDIT: booted perfectly in just 5 secs but, no matter what I do in the lockscreen I can't unlock it, the screen once moved a bit but bounced back
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] norpan111:
It's voice activated, try say "unlock"since the Mic isn't really 100% yet you may want to raise your voice a little
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Makrilli:
oh thanks I didn't know that as this was my second time flashing this since the first build
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] norpan111:
I just wish i could be there with you right now
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
Does the touchscreen work, along with everything else you expect from before?

The B2G guys said it needed a kernel update, but hopefully this one works, since I always rebuild kernel in my scripts :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Makrilli:
if this is suppoused to unlock by saying unlock, well then the mic doesn't work at all, I'm still stuck in lockscreen.

It reacts to touch but I don't know how accurate it is as in power menu it just closes the menu when touching anywhere in the screen
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sumeshd:
it doesnt respond to any voice or touch..it just sits there on lockscreen...very disappointing...was expecting something gorgeous..:(
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] sumeshd:
the touchscreen doesnt work at all..can u plz provide any link to the previous build?? OR plz fix this build?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
Nope, I can't do either unfortunately... I don't develop B2G and don't know what needs done.

These are nightlies, I am not going to dig through server backups and restore old builds...

If someone happens to have archived the builds, they might be able to post old ones...

Other than that I'll check the build later to ensure it is using the new kernel sources, since it was a known issue
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] swapnilraj:
The only way to unlock I found was by calling myself which unlocked the cell but the touch-screen doesn't work.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] gbohm:
it is the same with android there were changes made to the linux kernel. it is a own branch.

i believe the kernel in boot to gecko is very near a stock gb linux-android kernel.

2nd life for G1/Dream?

As it's supposed to be less hardware hungry, I would love to resurrect my old G1 with B2G.

Hardware is more than wellknown, so getting it all together should not be too hard and I would think of it as a kind of tribute to the ancestor of all this "linux on mobiles"-development starting with the first android.

Problems when building B2G for target config-galaxy-s2-ics

Hi Pulser,

When building did you use the target config-galaxy-s2? When I tried to configure the kernel that way it complained about that it didn't know about the software version of my phone so I found out that there is a different configuration target config-galaxy-s2-ics available (I updated the wiki at B2G).

After building and flashing the kernel as explained there it didn't boot up.

So I went on and compiled the factoryfs. It didn't flash since the target make flash-only wants to set the phone to downloadmode via adb itself so I modified the Makefile which was pretty straight forward. But after flashing it still didn't boot up. It was always stuck at the Samsung Galaxy bootscreen.

I have an I9100. And had a rather current original (rooted) Samsung ICS ROM installed.

Do you think it has to do with flashing via heimdall? Or rather with using the ICS target?

Best Regards,

Tobias
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
I was building non ics one
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] T__:
Was hoping to try this, what's the status; is it functioning via your method?

May try the ADB method direct from their site since it all seems to be working.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
http://b2gbuilds.org/

This is the best way for now, I think :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] T__:
Was going start it last night using that method but was lazy. Will report back when i do it this week :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] julle131:
I downloaded 7.5 nightly from there and tried to flash it throught heimdall cmd line in windows 7. Flashing went to 100 %, but after that it failed. Flashing new zimage worked, but the phone didnt boot to os. I didnt try other system.imgs from there. Should i wait for newer nightly and try it or try older system.img? If you need more info, i think i can reproduce the error.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Makrilli:
Did you also flash gaia which is the ui of b2g?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] julle131:
Mm... no i didn't. It is required to run this too? Is there a img for that too? I know im noob in this, but am i blind too?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Makrilli:
I'm afraid you need ubuntu to flash that. I tried yesterday with vmware but it gave me an error when I tried to build gaia
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] julle131:
I just noticed that when browsion on achieves on b2gbuilds.org there is file called userdata.img. Maybe it contains gaia. I will try tomorrow when i get to school.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Makrilli:
I downloaded all files from latest build on b2gbuilds and made a tar and flashed it and I get this. Didn't b2g have similar problem earlier. before the touchscreen problem started.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] julle131:
To me it seems gaia is not installed. I think i need to setup ubuntu to make it work then.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Makrilli:
You need linux to make a tar so I did use ubuntu. Also pulsers build also contain factoryfs.img zImage.bin and userdata.img I had all of them. B2g team has just some problems

Sent from my sgs2 running cm9
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] julle131:
It is possible aswell, because the project is in pre-alpha. BTW difference with 8/5 and 9/5 is almost 40mb. Maybe it lacked something in 8/5 build?

Also, maybe we could ask some help from pulser:

Pulser hjelp meh teh os isn't wurking!1one1!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Makrilli:
I'll compile a tar from 9/5 when I get home at 15:00 UTM

Also I think pulser can't help as he doesn't develop b2g he just compiles it and uploads it.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
userdata image contains gaia :)

So if you flash userdata too that should help :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] julle131:
Is there a command to flash userdata throught heimdall? Or is better to wait for odin file, as you wrote in first post to avoid flashing userdata with heimdall.

Cant wait. I hope it works.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Makrilli:
can anyone get to b2gbuilds.org? I can't :(

EDIT: Stuck at factoryfs.img I don't think this works atm :(
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] julle131:
I had problem with it myself. when flashed throught heimdall, it goes to 100% and then gives error. when i flashed --datafs, i got the same error in 100%. Are the builds broken in b2gbuilds.org? Atleast it seems so:(.

Edit: www.b2gbuilds.org seems to be online again.

Does anybody know if somebody is working on the same for tizen OS. Version 1.0 got released some time ago and it's also open source. Read an article today that Samsung will release a tizen phone and the specs sounded like an s2. They didn't give detailed info about the hardware though. Would be great to see this also on our phone.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bahmonkeys:
In Odin what option do you use to flash the file??

Edit: Ignore above. It looks very nice. Very fast at booting up like 4-5 seconds crazy! It crashed a few times on me but its very fast. It is a long way off being remotely stable well it is to be excepted when you deal with something in Alpha stage. Give it a go it may burn about 20 minutes and you will be back to Android

I have XXKLA4 . Flashed this rom with ODIN but it don't boot, stays in galaxy s2 boot screen. What flags do you have checked with odin? You have flashed the rom downloaded in this thread or you have compiled manually?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Gutana:
Uh, I had auto reboot and f.reset time checked, just cause that's what was checked when i opened odin. And yeah, i just downloaded it from this thread.

Lol now I've realized that in this version of CWM, you can't recover from external sd card. Lol good game. Time to fire up odin and reflash stock. Unless there's a file explorer in this OS that i've missed.

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Gutana:
It probably should, since I didn't flash any bootloaders. Before installing I was running Foxhound 0.2 (ICS).
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] lorenzo.themax92:
Flashed with old bootloader, but no luck :( It doesn't boot after galaxy s2 boot screen
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Gutana:
Well ****. Lol. It probably wouldn't hurt to try to flash it again. If that doesn't work, you'd probably have to cut your losses and restore to your backup. (Or if you don't have a working cwm like me, you'll probably have to flash stock and then restore to your backup.)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] lorenzo.themax92:
Flashed again and nothing. I have I9100 Galaxy s2 .. and my device won't boot. Doh :(
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] Gutana:
Well I have no idea. No big loss though, b2g still is missing way too many features to be useful. I lost interest after 2 minutes. I guess you'll just have to wait for a different version. D:

And to OP: Good job with this, looks very promising. Keep up le good work.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] lorenzo.themax92:
Many thanks for your help
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
Just a reminder that you should look at the wiki and github, as this is in active development. There's loads of good information there. I'll try to build this daily, and bump the thread, since I have an automated build system running now :)

It's going to be shown off at MWC, on an SGS2, as far as I know.

Android boots fine on the resulting kernel (CM9 tested)

What I'm now doing is putting CM9 onto my SD card as the "second ROM", so B2G can be the "primary ROM". That way, I can ODIN flash B2G onto the phone, and access CM9 as the secondary ROM.

Ultimately if this works (lol I doubt it tbh), then I will try to make B2G builds into zip form, so you can flash them from recovery into second ROM :)

If that works, you can have *any* ICS ROM (stock-based/aosp/aokp/cm/whatever) dual-boot with B2G, where B2G would be on the SD as the secondary ROM...

Building the ICS variant of B2G just now on my PC :)
