Hm, could sound as of you have partial root, or that the lfs folder wasn't given rw as the rest of the folder. Maybe open folder in root explorer, and then click the lfs folder, choose permissions and tick rw. If it's not that, then it is very weird it doesn't work. :/ Try and fladh the file again, and.. The original thread I link to, has an Odin file you can flash, that will remove the original picture and make the folder ready. Så put phone in download mode, flash odin file from other thread, and then manual copy the jpeg into .lfs. :/ If nothing of that work, it is very weird, and I am out of ideas. :/ Some one in here ended up reflashing a gingerbread stock rom, rooted, and then it worked. The splashscreen stays, after a reflash. .lfs folder is always untouched wheb flashing. Thid is why we cannot auto restore old samsung logo. We have to paste it in, ourselves. :/

Sorry for the trouble mate.

If M$ windows thinks its ok to lock there Boot Loaders, I think we need to petition or start voicing our opinions now. . . regardless the fact is, once we buy any product we have our right too do whatever we want too do, root, modify, upgrade or downgrade, I think the problem with M$ is that they aren't embracing the

Future

, they are fighting it, an thats why they keep getting lapped by company's like apple an google. Believe me M$, still doesn't get the bigger picture, an i dont know if they ever will if we dont start speaking up now. They are basing there beliefs on an outdated O.S of business. . .

I Think they can learn a thing or two from company's like google and apple

Simply stated DONT BE EVIL . .

Tell me what you think, how u feel and what we should do as a community.

This is my response too reading this portal post article, Good info JERDOG :)

Microsoft Confirms Lockdown of ARM Devices Running Windows 8

JERDOG'S post http://goo.gl/rq4yw
[Windows 8 General] m0nkf1sh:
Ah the bootloader, people have actually been talking about this for sometime. Although Microsoft are demanding ufei or what ever it is which will make it difficult for you to change operating systems, they have stated that it will not be used to force out other manufacturers. Im not sure I believe them in general, however as its a hardware related issue its actually in the hands of the hardware manufacturers. Microsoft don't make laptops/tablets. As far as I understand it although ufei will be required for windows 8 to run, a signed key is all that's required for other operating systems to run. Also its said that ufei contravenes EU law and so I would wait and see what happens.

The simple advice would be not to buy a device that is incapable of the functions you require. Dont buy a car to fly to the moon in. If you want to run Linux don't buy a laptop incapable of doing it.

I can understand peoples frustration with Microsoft but I fail to see when they became your *****. I thought Ipods were stupid at first as you couldn't play mp3's, so guess what, I didn't buy one.

You the consumer don't have to buy what they offer you. The other thing your forgetting is that the Hackers will sort it anyway, or have you never heared of "rooting" or mod chips etc. Any security where a key has to be passed from user to security centre can and will be hacked.
[Windows 8 General] akfelipe:
agreed, i can see people getting around this in the future, because when someone says NO there's always another one saying YES!, expect hackers to do their part.
[Windows 8 General] spunker88:
Last I checked the iPad is very locked down and everyone says they are new and hip. But if Microsoft locks a similar device down its looked at as an outdated business practice. I'd like stuff to be as open as possible, but Microsoft is essentially doing the same thing Apple has done with iOS devices since the beginning.
[Windows 8 General] TeaMsTaZ:
Just cause people say or think they are hip doesn't mean they are, last time I checked. . .

An Samsung mocked them best in there commercials ツ Just cause apple locks there ios means that they are right or m$ should fellow suit. . . And I believe modifiers :) will unlock, whatever google, m$ or apple, throws at them , an them trying too lock there O.S, makes modifiers want too do it more, don't forget apple now has to acknowledged unlocked pawned iPhones, Congress got involved an I think they should maybe do the same with m$, we live in times when we remix, an personalize everything just because we can. . . an just because they say we cant. . .

As it was said many years ago and still exists now stronger than ever

"If Man Made it, Man Can Unmake It"

It was only because of the mobile devices that Apple took market share, their desktops and laptops were good but just not up to par with what we were able to build with amd and intel chipsets for MS Windows operating systems. Now Apple has pulled a considerable amount of the computer market with mobile devices and stronger desktops and laptops.

Microsoft wants to gain the marketshare back with One O/S for all platforms. Hoping to up their mobile device marketshare to even it up with Apple. Its a far stretch but they want to keep themselves covered when it comes time that Apple tried to really put on over on them to keep the market.

ARM is proprietary now but will slowly become universal and open, just give it time and keep up the good fight!
[Windows 8 General] nbates66:
hmmm.. well if ARM does stay locked down, do you think Intel's newer low-power x86 chips will be efficient enough to be comparable to ARM chips in tablets battery-life wise?
[Windows 8 General] spunker88:
I completely agree, just pointing out a double standard that seems to be out there. I wouldn't be surprised if Windows ARM gets hacked to allow dual booting to an ARM Linux distro (Android, Ubuntu, etc). On Windows Mobile there was the HaRET software hack, but it required booting into WM first.

On Windows 8 I wonder if something like Wubi could be compiled for ARM and then modified to get past secure boot. I wouldn't be surprised, its amazing what the community can do with open source stuff.
[Windows 8 General] TeaMsTaZ:
Yeah there is double standard, my girl has an iPhone 4s, but lets keep that between us lol

But I really think its what you prefer, some like camaros some mustangs....

The developers on this site are great . . . Without them, I would be stuck using webos on my touchpad an windows 6.5 on my HD2 ( using SD American Android build )

You prolly right, tablets might come with win8. But maybe hackers can modify it so u can load android like a program hopefully. . .

[Windows 8 General] bman212121:
I'm on the fence with this one. I think their logic behind it has more to do with security than anything. Locking the bootloader doesn't stop device manufacturers from just making the same device that runs another operating system (Android) nor does having an unlocked phone that someone could put android on keep Microsoft from getting their license fee since the device ships with their OS.

Obviously it's not going to help make the jobs of everyone here easier, but it's not going to prevent them from getting other OSes on the device. What I could see happening in the modding community would be the opposite effect. Find an Android tablet that has an unlocked bootloader, and bring over the Rom from a Windows 8 tablet that has the same hardware.

Adobe Flash Player 11.1 for lg optimus net p698f / *TESTED AND WORKING*

some small steps to "avoid this problem" and make it work..

I Used these STEPS to make it WORKS on my LG P698f (LG Optimus Net Dual) wow my phone rocks as hell...

1) you need to be ROOT

2) - install flash player and don't run it;

(attention) DON'T MOVE Flash Player to "SD CARD" (very important)

3) - use ES File Manager (is one of the best..)

(and in settings enable "root mode" and "mount system as ROOT")

and you can copy "lib folder" (unpack the files first , ok?)

to /data/data/com_adobe_flashplayer/lib/

4) on each file (in lib folder) set permission correctly as described in the picture (on the main topic)

5) and bingo, IT's working... for me... and maybe to you too...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] byronvini:
It's work but I can't watch any video because it's laggy
[Miscellaneous Android Development] taitony:
Please discover why the files inside lib will lost when cold reboot ? I have to copy files for each reboot.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mvthakar:
These permissions are not working.

We need only libflashplayer.so. Other so files are useless
[Miscellaneous Android Development] cyko_gamer:
Oh... great..... many many thanks...

Working perfectly.... now watching cricket live ..... thanks again....
[Miscellaneous Android Development] derobton:
Awesome! Works on my LG P690.

Thanks op.

Just a quick note. You must install the app to its default location (internal memory). If you have an override settings to install to sd card, it will not work properly - lib folder permissions incorrect and could not be changed on mine.

Files getting erased

I don't know if any of you have noticed this, but the files are getting erased everytime I reboot the phone. So, I have to open the zip file everytime and transfer the files to the specified directory. Isn't there any solution for this??????

:confused::confused:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] cyko_gamer:
Don't move flash player to phone or do not update it....
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhishek046:
Help

I didn't get u. For d flash player to work, i hav to copy the 4 extracted files to /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib which is on the phone itself!! Wat is it that u mean by not moving it to phone?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Bobses:
copy failed

Hello. This is my first post here.

So, I have a big problem: I cannot copy /lib folder in /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer. I see the folder, but I cannot copy... This folder has 555 permissions (r-x r-x r-x). I tried to change with ES File Explorer in 777 but the operation failed; I tried to change permissions in 777 in Terminal Emulator (su chmod 777 /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer/lib) - operation failed.

I tried in Terminal emulator too: mv /sdcard/Download/lib /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer - operation failed.

I need your advice to run Adobe Flash Player on my LG Optimus Net P690.

Thank you.

Edit: I don't know why or how, but problem is solved after uninstall and reinstall flash player for a few times.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhishek046:

[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhis3k:
Hi All.

I am Abhisek and I am trying to build CyanogenMod from source for our Micromax A70.

Micromax A70 is quite popular in India as a budget phone, but this device is stuck with Froyo. No more updates from Micromax as well as no kernel source from Micromax. So I am trying to build CyanogenMod from source for Micromax A70.

I am choosing CyanogenMod over AOSP as CyanogenMod supports more devices and have many patches over AOSP. So building CyanogenMod will be easier than AOSP. If successful, I will port a Oxygen/AOSP build.

I was about to give up hope until I found out how to enable ADB on Micromax A70. So I have successfully enabled ADB & obtained the system dumps. Now I can start on this project.

Current Status:

1. ADB is working perfectly.

2. System dump obtained.

3. Hardware info obtained.

4. Firmwares obtained.

5. CyanogenMod sources download in progress.

6. Currently creating the device & vendor folders.

I will keep the progress updated here. Lets hope for best.

P.S. Mods if this thread is inappropriate or in wrong forum, please do the needful. Couldn't find a better place to post this.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhis3k:
I will provide the adb tutorial in case anyone is interested ( that is how I got the system dump ). All credits go to mastermind1024 of androidforums.com. It's not my work, so if you have to thank, thank him. He is the one did all the adb working stuff. You can read the original post Here.

Update:

mastermind1024 is here on XDA. You can see the tutorial Here.

For me, I have to manually run /sbin/adbd from Android terminal emulator to get a working adb connection. You also have to give permission for adbd in SuperUser. FYI I use ubuntu.

If you need the boot.img & recovery.img You can follow the tutorial Here
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ron G:
you mean this rom is under development? I don't have a70 just asking. And you are on right place. Also microsoft needed to open kernel source.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhis3k:
You meant Micromax right :P

Yes the ROM is under development. The repo sync is taking forever. :( I have a pathetic BSNL BB Connection here.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Ron G:
sorry yes i mean micromax. and best for your rom. i think it's first 2.3 a70 rom?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] varun.chitre15:
Good!

How much % is the sync complete?

Moreover who are u on androidforums?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhis3k:
I have same userid abhis3k. Sync seems to be complete at 70%, I can only see the directory size, Fetching projects is showing 89%
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhis3k:
Yes AFAIK if I succeed, this will first GB ROM for A70.

------------ edit -------------

I have tried to run ADB with root permissions. It works, but somehow adb remout does not work.

P.S.: I found the problem, the system was already r/w.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] varun.chitre15:
I would say NO bcoz i m from a secret team and we had ported GB to A70 and touch doesn't work in any of the Ports

Moreover u will wonder that touch doesn't work in Android 1.5,1.6 which i had ported from HTC G1 also it doesn't work in 2.1 which i ported from Micromax A60

So we need to build ROM from source which u r doing. Moreover that is not enough because as soon as sync completes then we need to enable touch drivers in BoardConfig.mk
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhis3k:
Great!! I had no idea A70 had a GB port. If you can share the details It would be easier to compile for A70.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mastermind1024:
I think akshay is uploading that port now.he has made a thread n uploading right now.i dont know if it's the same that varun is talking abt but mostly it is.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1540104
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhis3k:
Sure I will check it out. It will speed up the development.

--------- edit ------------

This seems like a binary port using kitchen. Right?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] varun.chitre15:
Binary port?

Its ported using kitchen which involves replacement of kernel.

And when sync completes, inform us here,a we will make two roms.

One with unchanged boardconfig.mk and second with modded boardconfig.mk
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhis3k:
Replacement of kernel includes replacing binary files including so ko and firmware files. Which are all binary. Only recompile includes a output which is not binary replacement.

Download is still at 93%. I will come back when its finished.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mastermind1024:
I am also at 91% since a week..i am getting fatal errors on sync now n then..project downloads upto abt 86%(abt 650mb) n then I get error...i had to do all again..still no luck.i wish i can finish it tonight.we (me,varun,akshay) eager to lunch rom from cm source as we have hope that changing boardconfig will give us working touch.let's see.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mastermind1024:
extract-files.sh

I have completed sync & also made extract-files.sh

I want others to examine & complete it if I have missed something.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhis3k:
@mastermind I have checked the file. Seems so good so far. I hope my sync will also complete by tonight. I am going crazy with these BSNL broadband problems :(

Have you started the build? Let me know the boardconfig.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] samrox144:
the script doesnt have adb pull for the binary akmd2.without which sensors wont work .

and in a70 there is also a file called Focal touch.kcm and this is used by the kernel at boot i checked in dmesg .

so add this two files two ..

akmd2

focaltouch.kcm [from usr/keychars]
[Miscellaneous Android Development] akshaybz:
That focaltouch.kcm is indeed important ...

Even mentioned in the kernel .config
[Miscellaneous Android Development] varun.chitre15:
Hey what's the progress guys????

Yaha itna sannata kyu hai??

Please update us even u didn't attain any progress but don't be silent please!!!!!!!!!!!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhis3k:
Very bad situation brother. Here BSNL is down for last 3 days. Stuck at 99% for last 3 days. Neither can upload nor sync. Any progress from akshay?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] akshaybz:
Worse scenario.

Sync just hung ups when nearly 700Mb of framework is downloaded.

Will complete it by saturday though :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhis3k:
Same condition here. BTW I recall you have completed the sync right?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] akshaybz:
Nopes.

Not yet.

Will be done this Saturday hopefully :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mastermind1024:
Ok i think i missed akmd2 but thanks for Focal_touch.kcm.bin

I have added them to extact-files.sh

Here is new file..

N I have a bad news..i think my hdd crashed so i have sent my machine for repair...so possibly i will loose my all data n more badly the recent sync..:(:(:(
[Miscellaneous Android Development] varun.chitre15:
Huh....all hopes drained away once again :(:(:what:
[Miscellaneous Android Development] mastermind1024:
Don't say so bro...just let me have my machine back n i will sync again n complete the sync in 3-4 days if it don't give me much fatal errors like previously..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhis3k:
Good News!! :D

Sync completed 100% ;) resynced just now and it is all fine. We can start the work now!!:D

I am using your extract-files.sh and try a build after an hour. if you have any modified BoardConfig.mk you can provide it.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] samrox144:
:):):):):):):):):):):):)

Good Luck

use the below repo for boardconfig or some other help..

its playfulgod repo from which he compiled a cm7 but touch screen didnt work so he left it .....

https://github.com/playfulgod/android_device_micromax_a70
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhis3k:
Lets see whether we can sort out the touchscreen.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] samrox144:
yep ..that is the main problem now in A70 ..

can you compile the rom or it shows error still

and are you uploading your source to github .so that even we can try to solve some errors
[Miscellaneous Android Development] akshaybz:
Great!

Post back soon!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] varun.chitre15:
Superb!!

please keep us updated even with small things

---------- Post added at 11:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 AM ----------

@abhishek

Add this line in BoardConfig.mk and then compile the ROM

BOARD_USE_LEGACY_TOUCHSCREEN= true

BTW do u have A70?

@others

Is this single line enough bcoz i doubt we have to add some idc stuff too

---------- Post added at 11:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:27 AM ----------

Yipee i got the idc stuff too

We have to create a file named a70.idc in system/usr/idc with this content in it

touch.deviceType = touchScreen

and then we have to flash the ROM
[Miscellaneous Android Development] samrox144:
Any updates or news ..did it got compiled ???
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhis3k:
Quite odd. Everything seems to be properly set-up But I am getting a build error.

suf_keypad is needed from Huawei Ascend? why?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] samrox144:
Did you sync with playfulgod repo..if no then try to edit the mk file and remove hawuie lines..

are you pushing your work to git then i can help you better
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhis3k:
After one compile I will upload it to github. :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhis3k:
Yup I merged with playfulgod's repo and hence the errors. The build is running currently. libdvm is being compiled. Fingers crossed ....
[Miscellaneous Android Development] varun.chitre15:
yep.

btw did u mod boardconfig.mk as mentioned above?

and any estimate for completion?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] samrox144:
oh okay ..yes because playfullgod works on huawei ascend so you must have have synced those also then ......

yep fingers crossed ..how fast is your PC cpu processor
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhis3k:
Hardware specs is very bad

Pentium E5200 2.5GHz (2C/2T)

4GB DDR2

The build failed. :(

I am currently uploading to github. You can take a look at it when its done.

Got odd build errors in ddmlib.jar
[Miscellaneous Android Development] abhis3k:
No idea about time estimation brother. I am currently running with unmodified BoardConfig. Will try to modded board config now after compiling successfully.

And regarding your previous query, I do own an a70 but currently it is being used by one of my friend. But it is readily available.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] samrox144:
okay and with this hardware it make take a lot of time to build ...

and we really need to edit lot of files to make it compile ...

once it is uploaded i will try to find those errors or if i cant fix it i know a lot of people who will help
