Hey man that launcher button looks awesome! please let me know where i can get it! I really really want it. I saw one similar to this one in another post but was not sure.
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lolphirae:
Same thing as here - the /system/etc/init.local.rc initscript does not appear to work at all, despite being imported via init.rc in kernel's ramdisk. No matter what service I add there does not get run on boot (this includes the zram/compcache stuff included in CM9 - though that is not what I care about)

Did not work on any of hephappy's CM9 ROMs. :confused:
[Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lolphirae:
Bump! Seriously, none of the CM9 ROM devs here noticed this does not work? Getting an answer to a real problem seems almost impossible here with all the useless noise around.

My 160GB Ipod Classic has finally died T_T The battery's not holding a charge at all, I'm thinking of getting it repaired but I'm worried something else'll fail shortly as it's had heavy use. I've been researching alternatives but all the threads etc I could find are a few years old, so what's the situation these days, are there any decent/inexpensive MP3 players with at least 150GB of storage out there? Any sort of mini hard drives with screens or anything? Or is the ipod classic still my best bet? Cheers :)

If you don't care about bulk archos has some massive pmps. I have a 4.8 in 250 gb but I can't use it for anything other than in my car just because its so large.
[Off-topic] crimsonnight:
Cheers, good shout - what do you think of the Archos 48?
[Off-topic] 063_XOBX:
It's alright. Nothing special (and the resistive screen sucks after being spoiled by capacitive screens), charging (through a proprietary cable) is slow and the GUI sucks, but you can't beat the price for the capacity (I got my 250gb for like 170 a year ago).

I should add that the battery is fairly long lasting from a full charge and that in order to play movies and certain file formats (you'll be fine with mp3s) you have to buy format packs (which I find to be an obnoxious and money hungry practice that Archos should be ashamed of).
[Off-topic] crimsonnight:
Yeah 500GB for £100, seriously tempted - £26 (independent site) to repair my 160GB iPod but like I said, something else could just fail as it has received heavy use. Had a look and it doesn't look like there are any ROMs for the 48, would be nice to pump it at least up to froyo... from the dimensions the 48 doesn't look too bulky, still pocketable?
[Off-topic] 063_XOBX:
Pocketable-maybe, but the weight is a pretty big factor. Not to mention that it's almost an inch thick (doesn't sound that bad until you have it right in front of you. I can post pictures for comparison to my Xoom or Nexus S if you're familiar with either.
[Off-topic] crimsonnight:
I'm not 100% but I can guess what the nexus is like - pictures would be appreciated buddy!
[Off-topic] 063_XOBX:
Alright, I had to take the pictures with my Xoom so the size is a bit wonky but here you go.
[Off-topic] crimsonnight:
Cheers, don't seem to be loading though?

*EDIT* Also is there a model (that's similar in price/storage space) that you'd recommend over the 48?
[Off-topic] 063_XOBX:
If you're on mobile it might take a while (they're in UXGA resolution).

Cheers, I see what you mean about the thickness... doesn't look much thicker than my classic though thinking about it? Guess the speaker on it's crap.

Has anyone come across any custom ROMs for the 48?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] PiercedWithAttitude:
Hello all. :)

Question, I've had my note since upgraded from the S2 since March. Well all was fine up until Sunday. My phone stopped charging and I had it replaced at the warranty device center. Well due to my clumsiness, I dropped it on Tuesday outside and my screen cracked (fml). It's not a bad crack and everything still works but I'm going to file an insurance claim.

My question is, I had to get the white one because the AT&T store were out of the black one. Can I tell asurion that my current one is black so they send that color instead of white? Or is there another way I can try to get a black one through them? Can they tell by my imei what color it is? When I look online at my acct it even displays a black one under my phone (not sure if that really matters).

Thanks :o
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] PiercedWithAttitude:
Also, I have been searching on google the past two days. Haven't found any concrete answers so I'm wondering if anybody was able to get around it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Clark Joseph Kent:
I don't believe your imei, will let att know the color of your phone, i to have a white note, and it is displayed on my acct as the black note. When you put your insur claim in just make sure you tell them the color you have and want...

For me it doesn't matter, my case covers the phone...;)

So bottomline att, will prob send you what they have avail...unless you tell them you will wait till the color you want is avail, but then your time span for your claim might limit you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] cknuth:
If for some reason you get stuck with a white I have a black one in very good condition. Almost like new. Screen has had a protector on it since I left the store. 2 small marks on the side body. Anyway I have been wanting a white one. Maybe some sort of trade? (You buy mine I buy yours type of thing?). Since yours is new and mine isnt i would obviously pay more. Not the ideal option for you obviously...but a thought only if asurion decides to be dicks and not switch you.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] sc4les:
small update again:

I could write down my steps so a real developer could take over :P

Here my errors so far:

Symlinks for x/opengl-libs not right (ubuntu 12 error, had to do this manually)

Wifi-driver not found (Taken out of BoardConfig.mk)

Camera cpp-files contain some errors (No time to solve these, taken out of BoardConfig.mk)

Fonts not found (I simply copied those to the destination they should be created - works)

Kernel cant be build. No solution so far.

Again, this is basically ICS, nothing special. Except you dont need dalvik and stuff. Instead you need a ICS-kernel with a slightly different init.rc (containing the b2g layer).

The basic steps are shown here:

yeah... ubuntu automatically uses German here :D

The BoardConfig.mk points to

TARGET_PREBUILT_KERNEL := device/samsung/ariesve/prebuilt/zImage

What I tried:

I simply renamed my repacked kernel with the changed init.rc to "kernel". Its building then, but heimdall doesnt accept my kernel :D

The https://wiki.mozilla.org/B2G/Porting porting guide doesnt explain this very well :S Ill keep on digging through the makefiles :P

Im sorry I didnt manage to get it booting but its my first experience in rom developing so Im not into ICS development which would be a great help I think

[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] sc4les:
I am basically done. The guide is easy to follow. Most of the work is already done by arco.

But I dont want to risk bricking my phone as I need it for my exams next week :p

So I just want a developer to roughly check things and inform me about any riscs.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] sc4les:
It seems as you just need a working ICS rom kernel. You just add a few b2g things and in the b2g files you have to point to a few phone specific files (drivers etc). Then you just need to change the scripts thatll flash the resulting "rom", which should be easy as we can use heimdall just like s2 which should/can be used as a references for new devices as described in the wiki.

For heimdall see:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=755265

I just dont see a point in making a git repo for this as I only changed a couple of files so I wanted to describe the process making it easy for a developer to see what I made.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] wietwiet:
Well, upload what you got. Does it come as a cwm flashable file, or a file that needs to be flashed in odin? If it's a cwm flashable, it should be easy to check if the updater script is correct. A cwm flashable shouldn't cause any damage if b2g isn't working, since you can simply restore a backup.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] sc4les:
It contains a shell script that uses heimdall, which uses the odin protocol.
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] m0e_03:
Glad to see something new being developed here. ^_^

About risks of bricking the device..perhaps this can help you understand better..its more related to partitions and so on:

>> http://xdaforums.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_Plus/GT-I9001#Partitions

I've seen a video about B2G ported to SGS2..according to the preview, it seems a sluggish and has a very terrible response (processing speed).

Perhaps if this works, maybe you can try porting Ubuntu OS itself to i9001 (in the future). :D

Could you post/message me how you did it? I'm curious
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] sc4les:
So I started from scratch to check everything twice.

Here are my files so far:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22946117/b2g.zip

Things that must be done:

Clone B2G repo [x]

Create local backup of the original Android system [ ]

Add new device in config.sh [x]

Create manifest file "default.xml" for new device [x]

{not sure where to put it so its in /b2g/default.xml}

Create configuration tree for new device [x]

{is in /b2g/device/samsung/galaxysplus/}

The need to rebuild boot.img [ ]

{boot.img is in /b2g/device/samsung/galaxysplus/boot.img and MANIFEST, not sure where to put these. I made no changes yet, though this is pretty easy}

Add new device in flash.sh [?]

{should be the same as for gs2}

Config/build/flash for new device [ ]

{should work soon, gonna replace my arch with ubuntu for this}

anyone interested in making a git repo?
[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] MemoryController:
Um the device name is ariesve as you can see from cm repo, not galaxysplus. Also if there is no b2g project ariesve your local manifest xml won't do anything

[Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development] broodplank1337:
Well I can agree that you need ubuntu for actually compiling a kernel, but changing the ramdisk (init.rc) can be done in cygwin without errors, however linux still is better ofcourse :p

Here is the result:

Could somebody please start the build process?

1. Backup system

$ mkdir my_device_backup
$ cd my_device_backup
$ adb pull /system system

2. build

$ ANDROIDFS_DIR=my_device_backup ./config.sh galaxy-s-plus default.xml
$ ./build.sh
{optional, if working} $ ./flash.sh

I have no time to install adt and stuff as my exam is in a few hours :p

I don't think so that problem is wifi driver from kernel. Check directory: hardware/qcom/wifi or something like that, should be some headers or cpp files for bcm4329/dhd driver for wpa_supplicant. If I'm right, you need AOSP and then you are including some files for Firefox OS. If is like that I recommend you to build first AOSP then add Firefox files and build all together.
