Not sure but IIRC we pushed the ION commit around 2 months or so ago. So any release previous to that would suffice. Join #k3ftw on freenode.

Hello nikez.

What would it take for kernel 3 to make it on to the nexus one?

Nexus One using xda app
[Desire Android Development] MetinKale38:
Hey developers,

As you may know nikez stopped/paused development on k3 (thanks for his great effort btw).

The hd2 already has a working k3 and because hd2/desire are similar and hd2 source base on desire sources, it should'nt be difficult to merge them.

If there are some devs with little kernel development experience should manage o merge it.

Ugh. I'll work on it for a while today. Don't know if it'll do anything more than it already does but meh. I am bored.

There is a dev on k3 thread, your forum, willing to help.
[Desire Android Development] yeahman45:
great news :)! can you port the camera/camcorder/720p patch of Tytung for HD2 on the htc desire? even if it's on kernel 2.0 without ion.
[Desire Android Development] freebird24h:
+1 oh yes please do that for us, so we can finally move past gingerbread :)
[Desire Android Development] MetinKale38:
Uhm... the hd2 has a working k3 with camcorder...

And there are still lots of things, not only camcorder, to use it as a daily driver

Tapatalked... just Tapatalked...
[Desire Android Development] yeahman45:
we just want a stable camera/camcorder.. I don't really care if it's k2 or k3 .. port on what is the easiest
[Desire Android Development] Co.Tibi:
I don't think Nikez is taking orders, so you should stop asking for stuff unless you want him to regret ever thinking of going on with the K3 project.
[Desire Android Development] vasili_defy:
O man..

k3----> desire----->stability-------->profit?-------->camera/camcorder

If no profit---->get urself a new camera !:good:
[Desire Android Development] yeahman45:
i am not ordering anything...lolwut? i probably used the wrong words (srry english is not my native language).. i should have said "It does not matter if it's on k2 or k3 as long as it works" instead of "i don't care..." .. now i am reading it .. it sounds rude sorry about that. I was just requesting... I am very thankful of what nikez has done for the desire and i did not mean to sound rude or disrespectful srry about that

---------- Post added at 07:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:57 PM ----------

i don't get what u mean? what profit are u talking about? it's not that i don't have a camera.. i have a DSLR actually but i just wanted a stable camera on JB as i think JB is much better than gingerbread but daily use but it is just lacking a stable camera atm
[Desire Android Development] MetinKale38:
He just ment that you could profit more with k3 because it will make jellybean much smoother/stabler than k2 and camcorder is not the only thing we need.

If you have used 4+ roms for a while you will see that it isnt as stable and smooth as it seems like when you newly installed it.

No news since nikez retirement. K3 for desire is something that most possibly will never happen.

Sent from my HTC Desire
[Desire Android Development] HandyBesitzer:
sad to hear that. :crying:

I really hoped for a working K3 so the Sense K3 will started, too.
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
Check the hope in nikez rom thread.
[Desire Android Development] :
Was pretty obvious that it would never happen though. Too much blah.

[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
Don't be so ungrateful. Nikez did much, and he might be still on track.

I even ran some tests on k3 on my desire.
[Desire Android Development] dvd777:
As l read on his forum, he retired from k3 developing for Desire. Maybe not permanently, but he retired.

It is difficult when you have a little portion of actual help, instead of millions of facebook likes...

I don't blame him. He did a great job compiling the kernel. Too bad he is not motivated to do more.
[Desire Android Development] :
Well, don't get me wrong, not blaming anyone either of course... but how should one guy who is new to kernel programming succeed without any help? Pretty impossible i guess, one should see that realistically instead of having false hopes.

Mobiler Beitrag
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
He was new. A guy learnt a lot by troubleshooting linux logs and recompiling / modifying kernel accordingly. He had help in start, but later on was, more or less on his own.

Another culprit were sources for k3, which HTC company did not want to give to community.

Infact, libs for gpu and camera are problematic part.

So all what has left was paching. Which is hard without official libs.

German friend, can you help? I mean, you are full of criticism. Guess for a reason.

Either you have a knowledge, so you know what are you talking about. Or you are just one of bees, buzzing a lot, not giving honey at all.

Sorry for OT.
[Desire Android Development] :
I can't help, because i have no idea about programming. Nonetheless i can imagine how hard it has to be for just one person, especially if it is "new land" for you. But again, i'm not criticizing, sorry if it sounded that way.

Peace. :)

[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Actually, shortly after I quit developing on K3, I ported 3.4 to msm8660 alone without any issues. I know what the issue for K3 is but I can't seem to find time nor motivation to finish K3. Once that main issue is fixed, I reckon it will take me a day or two to get the rest of the functions up and running.

I'll just throw this out there: If you have any experience in kernel development, my sources are free and available at http://github.com/nikez/android_kernel_htc_qsd8k and branch 3.0. You need to fix the MODEM. Fix that and the system will not panic. If you are serious and got stuff compiling or have an idea on how to fix it you are free to contact me. I will not respond to "helo bpls haw i ken kompile kärnel??".

And to chk412: Machen se einfach dat et geht!

[Desire Android Development] yeahman45:
we are all grateful towards nikez's work. But imo i think htc desire is fine and smooth on k2... it just needs a camera/camcorder fix that the qiss rom team has been able to achieve on k2 and ICS
[Desire Android Development] FeraVolt:
Hello guys.. I'm dev from neighbour x10 forum.. Our phones have similar (qsd8k) board and I used a lot of Enervolv's work in my kernel for x10.. I'm just passing here with a reference link for devs on general qsd8k kernel development.. Thanks :)

Does it help?
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Not really? I mean, my work is available for everyone. Until I see someone continuing on what I have done till now, I am not interested. As said a couple of times before: Fix the modem and you will have a relatively stable kernel. If you have an idea on what is wrong, please tell. I am not willing to waste my time on someone who can't compile a kernel. (This isn't directed to someone, just generally ;) )
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Something is wrong, I just got this strange feeling of developing again and decided to start over on K3 again. If you want to help out, join IRC asap.
[Desire Android Development] Chromium:
Im on IRC if you need a tester. :)
[Desire Android Development] rizla2:
Yaaay!
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Making some progress. Hopefully I can get it compiling soon. Unfortunately, I am swamped with work for the entire weekend. I might find some odd hours to work on K3 (like now..). Don't hold your breath, but I haven't given up again (yet) ;-D
[Desire Android Development] nickleby:
Yeah, I can see a lot of commits! :) Thank you so much for working on K3 again, I'm really sorry I cannot donate any money to you for your hard work and effort to bring back to life our old device with the latest software :(

[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Since it was a while ago I gave you guys an update I won't post a meme with someone smashing a chair, screaming in anger. I usually hate these sort of questions.

So here are the news: There is nothing new. For the past 5-6 weeks I have been swamped with work due to a server movement of our entire system at work. "So I guess you aren't at work 24-7, why don't you code on your spare time?" - The little time I have at home I want to spend with my g/f, friends and just relax. With that said.. I just finished the server movement this week, however we are still having a couple of critical issues that needs to be resolved. I won't promise anything but I think I can squeeze in a couple of hours of developing the coming weeks. Like I've said, if you know how to kernel dev I encourage you to contribute to the project.

What needs fixing: Cable Detection -> Charging, UMS and a couple of other minor things. Once we get those sorted I will publish a release.

Hi Nikez...

Just coming up to some news... I know you haven't much time, but still wondering if any progress in K3. Or is it definitevely under a pile of papers.

But anyway, good work for our old Desire :D
[Desire Android Development] mauriciognr:
Ok we are on april now, i know you guys are bussy as ****. Is the developed stopped or dropped? Im asking because i've seen lately a lot of dead ends about HTC Desire and Nexus One, like if no one is developing anything for them, i see the same 3 roms being update, and i apreciate that, but the same main problems remains, camrecording, crappy camera for pictures, slow response, i now they have 4 years old but i think if we put a final push of work we can get that think work, i dont now crap about dev, but i can beta test whatever you need.
[Desire Android Development] nickleby:
Obviously [MENTION=3678722]LaidbackNikez[/MENTION] is the only one that got further with the K3 development, and I remember he said something about being very busy with his job and stuff (which of course is much more important). That's why we haven't seen any progress with K3 or ROM update in a long time. Hopefully he haven't abandoned K3 development yet. :) We just need to be more patients or learn kernel development and start helping him!
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Welp, I posted a tweet yesterday, "Step 1. Start Linux (first time since 2014-02-15).Step 2. Start developing [Source]"

I did not get any further unfortunately.. I am still struggling to figure out why the USB cable is not recognized after you unplug it.. (It is recognized and charging while plugged in during boot). But.. It wasn't a huge failure tho, because I've been dragging my feet when it comes start developing again. I suppose that me booting into Linux yesterday will make it less harder to continue developing ;) NO PROMISES THOUGH. I still need help.

Don't want to be rude or disrespectful. But, if/when K3 will be ready for Desire, who will still own that phone? This is 4y old model, sale discontinued in 2011. I hope it will still have some audience when/if fully functional K3 see the daylight.

[Desire Android Development] Shaky156:
I cant, very busy right now, and any free time i get i spend on sense 5 audio for desire hd. I can only look at logs if anyones willing to provide.

Any chance for logs?? If it cant he obtained via usb, logs can be initiated via init.s scripts that will invoke dmesg, logcat and dumpstate binarys after say 7seconds from booting.
[Desire Android Development] maxens63:
Like me!!:laugh:

Why change phone ?? I'm so glad to have kitkat on my Desire. A lot of recent phones can't say that.:good:

Many htc forums have many people using Desire
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
You mean it is not recognized once system is up, but it is ok during boottime?

Maybe some kernel modules are missing or failing to start once system is up? Which are responsible for detection of cable?

Just a wild guess.....
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
No, it's recognized until you unplug it.. When you plug it back in it it's not charging nor "saying" that the USB cable is connected.
[Desire Android Development] PapaJasy:
Have you tested it with other Desire?
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
Aw... hard to tell. Like some resource / module hangs. I guess until next reboot.

But maybe it is only up to system ui.

When you plug it back, have you tried 'adb devices' command to see if PC sees Desire? Just to rule out possible GUI indication issue.

Thanks Nikez for trying.
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Hi, It's related to the kernel only, so the system does not get a flag saying it's connected. I think I've derped something with OTG or something... I'll try to dig into it soon.. I got some free time tonight but I am kinda working on another project (No, not Android).
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
Nikez, again..... you did and still doing awesome job. Only person on this planet deving k3 for Desire. Alone. One man show.

[MENTION=3678722]LaidbackNikez[/MENTION] What toolchain do you use to compile this? I am using 4.8 and the phone just dies after the HTC logo.
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
I'm using a custom 4.7 toolchain.

Oh, sometimes you need to go directly into bootloader and then fastboot boot and it'll go.
[Desire Android Development] island3r:
Hm still no go, so I guess there's something wrong on my end. I'm going to try another build with 4.7 then.
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Thanks mate :)

I took a couple of minutes to go through the code (through Github) at work (Waiting for a couple of heavy processes to finish).... And I think I MIGHT have a solution. Anyone successfully compiled K3 and/or could test for me straight away? You need to know how to edit a defconfig file and flash a kernel. If so, please contact me directly though IRC. Freenode.net, channel #k3ftw. NO MESSAGES WITH "I CAN BETA TEST"

If this is the fix .... I am seriously going to stop developing :D
[Desire Android Development] jukyO:
Was there anyone willing to support here? Outcome?

Nikez, still need help?
[Desire Android Development] LaidbackNikez:
Yeah, some people showed up but no result unfortunately. It's a silly problem though... I'll figure out sooner ot later. Thanks anyways.
