[Gen9 Android Development] Liebaart:
Flashed it and it works, but now I encountered this problem.

If you do a full wipe from the Settings menu, the device freezes while booting. It's not a bootloop, just completely freezes on the Archos bootlogo.

Same thing happens when I then try to reboot from the Recovery menu, or even Format System and Reset Android and Storage. Boot freeze....

Any idea on this?

I have a 80G9

[Gen9 Android Development] surdu_petru:
Hi..

sorry ! , not yet ....
[Gen9 Android Development] surdu_petru:
Hi!

You can try "Format System" -> "Reformat Device" -> OK ! , install stock 4.0.6, than -> copy archos.ext4.update in /mnt/storage/ go to recovery -> Recovery System -> Developer Edition Menu -> Remove Android Kernel -> Developer Edition Menu -> Flash Kernel & Initramfs , copy here zImage and initramfs , Ok! - good luck !

no fc's and reboots in 13 hours stresstest (governor hotplug mode!). i had before up to 3 in one hour. seems much better now!!

thanks :thumbup:
[Gen9 Android Development] Shano56:
13 hour stresstest! wow that cannot be good for your CPU. was your tablet hot afterwards?
[Gen9 Android Development] hitman72:
still a lot off crashes and reboots expecially using opera, veetle, sopcast etc. even a simply game like angry words freezes the tablet (when one is moving a tile..), pity. ciao :-)
[Gen9 Android Development] 4carlos:
mmh, maybe stresstest is the wrong word in the conservative meaning. what i mean is, heavy usage of my favorite applications like adobe reader, dolphin hd, kindle, moon+ reader, stock browser, greader pro, kaiten mail, vs tv, softmaker office mobile (crashes 2 times, because beta i guess), calendar, meridian pro, pinball, picsay pro, raging thunder, titanium backup, skype, upnplay, google play store and some german news apps with a lot of video contents like zdf mediathek, tagesschau, heute and so on. all applications crashes after a while before update. seems, after update my main apps running stable now. btw. it's not only a gamepad (only for fun and relaxing) you see. my hotspot is information, working, watching tv/video and communication. i think, a real 'stresstest' (running cpu instructions in a loop thousands of times) is not close enough to my daily usage. i'm not a fan of overclocking (reduce life of hardware) only to get more speed.

beside this, i realized that skype has problems with audio now. i cannot receive any voice with audio and video calls. my counterpart can hear me, but my speaker keep silent. what a pity. until is fixed, i use reelportal to talk with my kids.

for my purpose it's much much better now. i have got many fc's/freezes/reboots while scrolling in contents when i used governor hotplug.

@hitman72:

opera crashes since honeycomb on my tablet and on my phones (pls see opera forum for all the pain :(). it's not a really good reference. i use dolphin instead. not all fc's are caused by archos i mean. many apps in play store have a low quality and not really ported to ics hd. i don't except bugfree software all over.

If YES, please state how did get into the Official [LPY] ICS ROM and the problem you are experiencing.

If NO, then just please tell us your success story.

The reason why this thread exists is to, once and for all, trace the HARDBRICK that plague (?) some (?) ITCHY SGN fanatics and to pacify the fear of some of the other kids.

Don't need your opinions on why blah blah, just the scenario, OK?

no problems now, except maybe battery but that might because we are all using it more to test it out

gonna test the battery today when i go to work, if it drops 20% in my pocket then theres a problem but last night it only dropped 5%
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Alejandrissimo:
Does anyone know anybody that bricked te note with LPY?

I have no problems at all. All working excellent. From miui, flashed back to gingerbread then update to LPY all with mobile odin. No Cwm only everRoot.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] beestee:
No problem coming from official LC1 GB with CF-Root kernel using Mobile Odin Pro with Everoot and injections. Had no problems before factory reset in CWM nor after. I let the system rest both after the initial flash, and after the factory reset/wipe cache/wipe dalvik for about 20 minutes without touching the device.

This is my best experience on the note yet.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Note_E:
One person has, but it is VERY questionable as to the cause of the brick. Time will tell.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] BuddyJoe83:
No problem occurred thusfar.

I kept my Note stock, didn't want to root to give Sammy a chance...especially with the premium suite and S apps.

So used Odin v1.85..downloaded the 600mb+ file from samfirmware.com..extracted, loaded .tar file In PDA..flash and succes so far.

Good battery life..using Apex launcher but graphics seem improved, Tweakers.net did some benchmarks and conforms my feeling about this.

No trouble downloading large files, playing them and deleting.

So far nothing but good feelings about this..got bit scared by the posible brick stories but keeping it all stock seems to do the trick.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] crusciotto:
All good here as well :cool:. I returned to my stock rooted GB nandroid when the problems with the leaked kernels started (from Stunner, using the Abyss method without any problems). Stayed on it and then upgraded today with mobile odin and everoot (with full wipe). With that I kept root and restored my apps & data with TB. As I read a lot about bricking even with stock ICS I hesitated a bit to also flash the CF kernel. In the end I even flashed that (also using mobile odin). Went into CWM an wiped cashes to flash lidroid's 15 toggle mod. That is working fine now as well. Been using it since some hours now and no problems whatsoever! The only thing I didn't do as yet is a nandroid backup of it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] zkyevolved:
I am having issues with screen sensitivity.

Battery life isn't very good...

Runs a little warm...

Otherwise, I'm very happy with ICS :)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Note_E:
I noticed some wonky screen sensitivity issues too. Scrolling through lists on Tapatalk 2 is a pain in the arse. Going to try touch screen booster app

I froze a lot of apps in Titanium Backup, and my battery life/heat issue went away
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] bioweb:
Itchy SGN fanatics and other kids? Calling an opinion bla bla?

Here's my bla bla: don't patronize people if you want them to contribute to your cause.

Here's my success story: flashed LPY with PC Odin, hated it, reverted back to CM9, happy again.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] REVERSiN:
smooth so far 2 days now and working great battery drains a bit faster but np.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] altae:
No problems here. Flashed rom and CF-Kernel using Mobile Odin Pro. Have got now a rooted ICS which works very well.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] batterylife:
[Success]

Flashed from CM9 build#7 via Mobile Odin with everroot, inject su, inject Mobile Odin and Wipe data and cache options. Worked fine for me.

Flashed CF's CWM injected LPY kernel via Mobile Odin and that worked too.

After the whole brick panic I reverted to the original Samsung LPY kernel via Mobile Odin, no problem.

I didn't use CWM at all though given the suggestions that there may be some imcompatibility between it and the lpy kernel.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Note_E:
Nobody cares... Thread asks if you had problems, not if you hated it. So we will assume it was working just fine for you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Attackcenter:
Ok. Here's the real deal. I upgraded through Kies. No root here. DONT UPGRADE NOW:

Problems:

1. Its just as jerky as Gingerbread. Its actually even worse at times in slowness. It has a fast homescreen scroll at first and then has random pauses (almost the same). What worst is in apps when scrolling up and down on text it randomly pauses sometimes for several seconds. Also, every once in a while it does this on and off screen flashing then (not very seldom though). When it does it sucks.

2. The "fast reboot" app now crashes apps if you use them within the first 5-10 seconds after doing a reboot.

3. I'm noticing lots of compatibility issues with apps that aren't fully ics ready.

4. Samsung's version of Ics is dumbed down to almost look like gingerbread. So it runs worse and almost looks the same. I'm historically the one that notices all of the bugs because of how frequently I use multiple apps and because of the amount of apps I have on my phone. Thats why I constantly help by emailing devs pointing out bugs that 98% dont see for some reason.

5. Please dont get mad at me because I'm not a follower to give all praises to samsung and google (I am the same way towards apple too, even know I prefer android). :)

6. I suspect one of the problems is that Ics takes a little more juice and that the 1.4 exynos is once again underpowered. I think the other problem is samsung tried to rush this update out to the people and that the current touchwiz overlay is buggy. I expect an updgrade on touchwiz shortly (if they are a ethical company).

7. A primary example of the problems: While I'm typing this post I get a phone call. After I reject the phone call it goes back to taptalk with a less lighter screen. It is totally unresponsive. I then have to hit the back key to get back to composing. I then try to move up and down. It won't let me. After 15 to 30 seconds in able to once again continue this post.

8. I am sorry also that I upgraded because it might be glitchy for whom ever buys my phone eventually when I sell it (sell my phone every 6 months) and they may think there is something wrong with the phone, even though I baby my phones for future resell.

9. Bottom line: If its not broke dont fix it. We all want ice cream sandwich. Unfortunately, samsung's touchwiz version of ics at least doesn't appear to be ready for prime time. If you like beta testing and dont mind even worst glitches, then go for it. I definitely wont be upgrading to another phone with ics unless it has the new tegra 3 or the latest exynos processor.

I went from gb, to german release ics, worked fine no issues from pc odin, then chainfire produced rooted kernel for it flashed with pc odin. all worked fine, but now i had triangle and 1 on the counter, ahhh, ok so triangle away dont work, flashed chinese repack did triangle away worked, using mobile odin, then i flashed the repack of the release with chainfire kernel, had nothing but problems, so went back to mobile odin flashed stock ics, then lost root, ahhh so flashed chainfire kernel with pc odin all well but still have triangle and 1 on the counter, i did full factory reset each time. I find ics a bit laggy more than latest gingerbread, i am leaving mine as is for the moment.

[Gen9, Gen10 General] whistlinwilly:
Hey guys,

I've spent a few days now researching and attempting to build the FTDI kernel module for my Archos 70b. After following this guide I managed to get a successful compilation. I uploaded it to my device (which was rooted via Paul's root and rebooted into sde). When I attempt to use insmod, I get the following error: insmod: cannot insert '/sdcard/ftdi_sio.ko': Invalid module format (-1): Exec format error. I ran 'dmesg -c' and got the following output: [ 684.472290] ftdi_sio: unknown relocation: 27. I have the usbserial module installed already as well. What is the problem here? I'm assuming by relocation it means it's loading the module into the wrong part of the address space? I could be very off I'm new to this process. I just want to thank everyone in advance for their help, this is my first post and I've used these forums extensively over the last few days. You have a great community here.

A little extra information:

I'm using the toolkit from the android-ndk-r8. My makefile looks like this:

obj-m := ftdi_sio.o

KDIR := ~/bin/gen8/archos-gpl-gen9-kernel/

PWD := $(shell pwd)

CCPATH := ~/android-ndk-r8/toolchains/arm-linux-androideabi-4.4.3/prebuilt/linux-x86/bin

default:

$(MAKE) ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$(CCPATH)/arm-linux-androideabi- -C $(KDIR) M=$(PWD) modules
[Gen9, Gen10 General] surdu_petru:
Hi !

First be sure that you have the same version kernel->module , run modinfo module.ko and vermagic need to be the same with kernel version !

- if it's ok you can try strings module.ko and than insmod module.ko !

( but can be many things wrong in your process of compiling module !!! ) Good luck ...
[Gen9, Gen10 General] whistlinwilly:
I can confirm that the versions are the same, I was using an incorrect version before and dmesg was complaining. I've since compiled the module for the right kernel version and now dmesg only gives me the "unknown relocation: 27" error.

I ran the strings command, it outputted over 4000 lines. I'm not quite sure what you could gain from the output but I can attached the text file I piped it to if that will be helpful.
[Gen9, Gen10 General] surdu_petru:
Ok!

May be you have a problem when your module "export symbols" -> take a look into Module.symvers ... and see if something export !
[Gen9, Gen10 General] whistlinwilly:
I looked around and couldn't find Module.symvers either in the source code or on the actual device. Do you know where I might be able to find it or how I can create the file myself? When the module is compiled, make throws a warning about not being able to find it. I think this is the problem.
[Gen9, Gen10 General] surdu_petru:
Hi !

...maybe it help you => http://tldp.org/LDP/lkmpg/2.6/html/lkmpg.html

( module.symvers is created after you run make ( for make module) in directory where you compile module )
[Gen9, Gen10 General] whistlinwilly:
I'm not quite sure I understand. I get a warning

WARNING: Symbol fakepath/kernel/Module.symvers

is missing; modules will have no dependencies and modversions.

when I run make in the modules folder. There IS a file created called Module.symvers after I run make, but it is empty; I'm assuming its just a copy of whatever Module.symvers file it is actually looking for.

Has anyone compiled the archos gen9 kernel that might have created this file and can pass it along to me?
[Gen9, Gen10 General] trevd:
Hi whistlinwilly

Are you sure you've grabbed the right kernel source - your KDIR says gen9, if your compiling for the 70b you probably need the gen8 kernel source code as I think it's on the Gen8 product line

you can check which kernel version you have by running the following from a command prompt.

adb shell uname -a

Hope that helps
[Gen9, Gen10 General] scholbert:
Hey whistlinwilly,

i don't know if you were successful in the meantime, but here's what i suggest for simple kernel module compilation...

You might refer to my custom kernel thread and check my toolchain, which is ready to rock (only 32bit linux right now):

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1328027

To compile custom kernel/modules only, look here as well:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=19134490&postcount=8

The archos specific toolchain uses uclibc and is used for kernel and userland.

So if you use stock kernel, but choose a different toolchain (e.g. libc based) to compile your modules, you might run into trouble at some point.

BTW, is it correct that you talk about this device:

http://www.archos.com/products/ta/archos_70b/index.html?country=de&lang=de

Not sure which family it exactly belongs to :confused:

If you're talking about this one:

http://www.archos.com/products/ta/archos_70it2/index.html?country=de&lang=de

...the kernel should be 2.6.35 then.

http://gitorious.org/archos/archos-gpl-gen9-kernel

I'm not aware of any config for the A70IT2 though.

Please refer to trevd's suggestion and find out your kernel release first...

Good luck!

[Gen9, Gen10 General] the_zuck:
I had the same problem (Relocation error: 27) when trying to compile a custom kernel module for my Moto xoom running Honeycomb.

I was able to compile successfully by rolling back to Android NDK 5b. I also had to force the vermagic string to read ARMv7 so I know this isn't the right way to solve the problem, but when I compiled with the 5b toolchain, the relocation error goes away and I am able to insmod without error on the tablet.

I would love to know why this works and the right way to get NDK 7 to work with this, if anyone can shed some light??

EDIT:

On further digging and testing- I realize it is not necessarily NDK 5b, but rather the toolchain "arm-eabi-4.4.0" as opposed to using the "arm-linux-androideabi-4.4.3" toolchain, that makes the difference with the "unknown relocation 27" error. It just so happens that NDK 5b is the last NDK that shipped with both toolchains, AFAIK.

It still for some reason likes to compile under ARMv5 unless I force it to use ARMv7 but this issue is probably unrelated- I didn't mean to confuse things with the ARM v5/v7 versus NDKr5 /NDKr7 which don't correlate...

Anyway I hope this helps, or maybe someone else who knows more can help us both!
[Gen9, Gen10 General] the_zuck:
Well, I solved my toolchain issue- I just needed to add an EXTRA_CFLAGS=-fno-pic to get the arm-linux-androideabi-4.4.3 toolchain to compile without seeing an unknown relocation error on the tablet.

Hope this helps someone!
[Gen9, Gen10 General] mcd1992:
Thanks a million, finally got past the relocation 27 error now. Insmod doesn't complain anymore and the drivers load successfully, now to just figure out why I'm getting a backtrace on device insertion.

Thanks for solving my major headache tho :D
[Gen9, Gen10 General] bishwo:
Exec format error

Ok, thanks for the answer. My first post here.

After this got solved. I still have "Exec format error". And! and no errors are display in dmesg. Are there any other places where the error might be displayed? I just created a simple printk("hello world") project.

If i remove the printk it doesn't show the error.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry. I dabbled my self to the brink of madness to solve this. I couldn't find a solution anywhere. Finally solved it after 6 weeks of my time. Probably my boss at work will not be happy if he finds I was working on this instead of working.

And I find the solution here 2 days after I solved it. WOW!!!:crying::D:crying:

But my saga still continues...
