About the drivers / binaries issue. I'm not a dev but I have basic knowledge and came up with an idea. Since android is open source, and I am guessing that the driver framework from 4.1 doesn't differ too much from 4.0, would it be hard to reverse engineer the changes made from ICS -> JB and write some sort of translation layer so we can use 4.0 binaries and drivers in JB?

I've tried compiling CM10 but I'm stuck at this stage: http://pastebin.com/5Tj3hYtu . This is only present in CM10 as far as I know because I asked some devs of AOSP, they said they haven't had any issue such as this one. I took listed header from AOSP but same issue, I need to give a try for webcore if I won't find any workaround. Adding '{' makes even more errors, so I feel it's pointless.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Zlodo:
I would like to discuss about the sound situation. Stop me if I misunderstand anything, but the idea is to reuse the proprietary yamaha drivers from ics, which is only available as binary, right?

Unless I'm mistaken, the reason this binary doesn't work because the audio hal interface in libhardware have changed in jellybean, correct? (this is what I gathered by diffing the audio hal header files between ics and jellybean at least, the files in libhardware/audio).

So while the binary is a black box, its interface with the hal and how it changed in jellybean are both known. So it would seem to me that the way to go would be to build a wrapper: a small .so that would replace the yamaha binary driver and expose the new, jellybean audio interface, and which would load the actual yamaha driver (renamed ot a different name), and forward the calls to the yamaha driver.

This should be doable without any knowledge of what happens inside the driver itself, the only required knowledge is the meaning of the changes between the audio hal interface between ics and jb.

Incidentally, is there any detailed documentation about that, or does it have to be figured out from looking at the audio library sources?
[Galaxy S II Android Development] joeyvanhummel:
I see. I had expected it to be easier than really tough since android is open source, but then again, I know next to nothing about reverse engineering or the driver framework. Thanks for replying, and thank you for your hard work!

Some great news from sammobile... a unofficial update but a very good one nonetheless...

The insiders of SamMobile reported that Samsung is testing Android 4.1 for the Galaxy S III and Galaxy S II.

Samsung is almost ready to update their Galaxy S III devices to Android 4.1.

There is no date planned yet but it could be around August / September.

More good news is for the Galaxy S II. Samsung started the first tests with success.

If Samsung will update the Galaxy S II is still a question, but because the Galaxy S II is still very hot the chances are very high.

According to the insider of SamMobile Samsung will update the Galaxy S II if the porting to Android 4.1 on the Galaxy S II goes well.

There are no words yet about any other devices.

But the insider told us that Samsung will update the HIGH-END devices more and more. That’s why the chances for the Galaxy Note will be bigger than ever.

There is still no public statement of Samsung about the Android 4.1 updates.

We of SamMobile put our bets on these three devices after the Galaxy S III.

- Galaxy S II

- Galaxy Note

- Galaxy Tab 7.7

[Galaxy S II Android Development] D4rKn3sSyS:
Yes, but probably not the best approach if binary blobs are not released by Samsung. If i'm not bad GPS is written via wrapper in ICS, but audio is a big thing, thinking on reverse engineering, or writing a wrapper is a lot of time. Perhaps that's what teamhacksung is doing right now, so that's why sources or build for our device, is not yet ready, or maybe we will enjoy some open source, wich I doubt as our audio chip seems to be very weird, and only a few devices have it.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] VanillaCracker:
Entropy stated in the JB thread on I-777 forum:

"It's possible to reverse engineer the HAL - it's just a MASSIVE pain in the ass and VERY time consuming.

25% chance arcee's legacy HAL wrapper works for ICS->JB (but given that GB->ICS didn't work with wrappers for our HAL... not a higher chance.)

50% chance the whole thing gets written from scratch

25% chance all the developers burn out before completion"

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Aldideos:
You can if you flash it with dorimanx kernel and after re-install Siyah.

Dorimanx kernel doesn't boot this rom...
[Galaxy S II Android Development] kalgecin:
You have to first wipe, install the JB rom, then install the kernel. not in any other order
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Zlodo:
I don't think a wrapper is such a huge amount of work in this case. I looked into the audio hal changes between ics and jb and they don't seem to be very extensive:

- a lot of ints have been replaced with what are likely simple typedefs (I don't have the entire source tree on my machine at work so I couldn't do any extensive grepping to confirm that). This is most likely all cosmetic, in which case it doesn't matter.

- a few new functions pointers have been added, but judging by the code calling them in audioflinger, they are all optional and can be null

(one of them have been inserted in the middle of existing function pointers, which is one of the reason the ics driver doesn't work as is: some of its function pointers aren't at the offsets that the audioflinger code expects)

- the open stream functions have had some of their parameters grouped up into a struct (that would be easy to fix in a wrapper but it is another obvious reason why the ics driver doesn't work with jb)

- some new effect commands have been added to query some states, that can probably be emulated easily in a wrapper (just save the state when the commands setting them are called)

A wrapper would basically just forward most of the function calls as is (probably just by copying the corresponding function pointers into the new structure), and just actually wrap what actually needs to (such as the open stream functions)

I'm probably going to have a crack at doing this, I just need to setup an android build environment all over again (got rid of my old one because I didn't expect I'd be hacking roms again) and I'm not looking forward to that.

Saying "this is bloody hard to do" without going into specifics as to why isn't actually very useful, and in my experience it wouldn't be the first time that CM samsung devs overstate the difficulty of doing something, such as when they insisted that fixing video recording was going to involve complex and painful reverse engineering of proprietary camera drivers, and it turned out not to be necessary at all and actually relatively easy to fix.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] iamnotkurtcobain:
This sounds good... Would that be possible to do? Perhaps teamhacksung already did that?

[Galaxy S II Android Development] VanillaCracker:
I'm already assuming you're going to attempt to do this even if you don't want to, but perhaps there are other HAL knowledgable devs who you could finger the work with. One who might already have a build enviro set up already expecting the hack? Some people get over-excited over this so I'm sure someone's prepared.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] koudd:
Have you looked at the fix? Even if it is not many lines of code it can still be difficult especially finding how to fix it could take a lot of hard work debugging. If i remember correctly they had some luck with the video as someone reported that a thirdparty camera app was able to record a bit or something like that, and with this they could get a better clue.

[Galaxy S II Android Development] kalgecin:
nice to hear gps works. I hadn't tried that. for the wifi, i think it's to do with kernel. we need one that is for JB. I think there's some api changed which comunicates wifi with kernel. but for sound i think it api changed which communicates with android. I might be wrong but i "think" that's what it is. I'm a bit busy at the moment at work, so i'm not full time on this ROM. My first intention was to prove people that said "our hardware is not good enough to run JellyBean". It runs super buttery even without hardware acceleration. so IMO the I9100 will be able to run many more android versions to come. Officially from samsung or not. This was is my first port and mod, and i'm quite happy to lear loads from koud, laststanding droid, memmorycontroller, team hacksung and others who have helped me in one way or another. I really appreciate the support and interest you guys gave me. THANKS. When the next android version comes out, I'll start moding and porting as soon as i get the codes or roms, hopefully i'd have learnt a lot by then to release a more stable version. :) I will continue to work on this rom but only when i get time. not sure if i'll release the final version. I "might" stop when official cm10 for i9100 comes out. but then again i'll probably finish it to learn how android works from boot to reboot :P

You may have to boot into your primary ROM then disable your Sim PIN for now, until the problem can be fixed.

Some other guys before flashed this as a second rom on the Siyah kernel too.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ars_92:
Running just fine on siyah as 2nd ROM. What is reported to work, works, and vice versa. Just have to say that vertical scrolling in settings, or any of that sort of thing is just AWESOME. The frame rate is definitely better than whatever we are getting now.

But flicking thru the homescreen is not as smooth as ICS. At times, its fine, and not at other times(hwcomposer's fault I guess)

But all in all, its a pretty nice build. Just a suggestion, if you ever release a 2nd build, would be cool if you include a simple file manager ;)

I got that error, This may not be the same for you, But my issue was resolved by changing back to a previous rom (as primary) then it flashed again properly, So for me, It was a rom related issue. My rom that didn't allow me to flash was this one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1758924

The ROM i was on when i flashed the JB ROM is: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1580070 (Please not: I am on Version 1.1 of this ROM as i like some features they have removed in the later versions) (Global density)

Flash it as a secondary ROM that way you don't get a reboot issue or have to flash another kernel, I used Siyah V3.4 to flash it, as V3.4.1 was not out at that time.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] ars_92:
Did you first wipe data/cache of 2nd ROM first? It will take some time, but I flashed the ROM after doing that. Is your zip file in your internal sd card? All this might help I guess since those are the steps I took. Hope it helps :)
