nice,so display etc works

Looks like it's compulsory to hardcore mtd partitions in the board
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] cute_prince:
Bro, I think you are correct .. Just before the phone restarts fbcon was flooded with many debug messages from

[htc_battery] and [msm_rpc_vibrator]

Did you fixed this problem on HTC HD ??

---------- Post added at 04:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:04 PM ----------

Dude, try to compile with a different toolchain as lirokoa suggested .. I didnt get those warning messages not even once :)

EDIT: Here I am attaching a boot.img compiled with kernel 3.0 and CM10 ramdisk ... Those who are running CM10 can test it by issuing,

fastboot boot boot.img
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Sachin Thomas:
I tested this on CM9 and it progressed beyond boot animation. It showed the 'Android is upgrading' screen, optimized all apps, and showed 'Starting Applications' and rebooted

Log file

who want some log ??

i modify the init.rc file to add a custom command and now : dmesg log !!

This is made with recovery
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] cute_prince:
Dude, you are a life saver :):)

Thanx a lot man ..

Between what changes you exaclty made to get dmesg ???
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Yannou90:
I just extracted ramdisk and add this to init.rc:

...

on init

export PATH /sbin

export ANDROID_ROOT /system

export ANDROID_DATA /data

export EXTERNAL_STORAGE /sdcard

symlink /system/etc /etc

mkdir /boot

mkdir /sdcard

mkdir /sd-ext

mkdir /datadata

mkdir /emmc

mkdir /system

mkdir /data

mkdir /cache

mount /tmp /tmp tmpfs

mount yaffs2 mtd@userdata /data nosuid nodev

chown system system /data

chmod 0771 /data

on boot

...

blabla

blabla

...

service log /sbin/log.sh

oneshot

And in /sbin/log.sh a realy dirty script :crying:

#!/sbin/sh

while true

do

sleep 5

/sbin/dmesg > /data/boot.log

done &

:D

[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Sachin Thomas:
I can't get to the homescreen dude. It rebooted after showing "Starting Applications". I'll try again on a fresh installation without any scripts

EDIT: Same result again. But wonderful progress :good:
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] #define:
Same results as Sachin Thomas with AOKP.. It goes up to "Starting Applications", and then it just, reboots..
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] ngoralph:
goes to bootanimation.....after sometime the 4 button lights up then bootloop :)

using CM10 beta2 by the way
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Yannou90:
I give too the bootanimation and reboot after 110 secondes , see log here
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Yannou90:
boot.img

You find here my boot.img , it launch at init a script in /system/bin/log.sh

I've made a 2nd script at /system/bin/dmesg.sh

/system/bin/log.sh :

#!/system/bin/bash
/system/bin/dmesg.sh &

Like this log.sh is launch one time and dmesg.sh work in background

/system/bin/dmesg.sh :

#!/system/bin/bash
while true
do
/system/bin/dmesg > /data/boot.log
done

we can add all command we want in it to debug

Enjoy !! :cool:

PS: if it don't work just add :

service log /system/bin/log.sh
user root
oneshot

to your init.rc

What 's happen ??
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] cute_prince:
Adi_pat told we have to change the lunfile paths and recompile the rom for sdcards and hence sd-ext to work with kernel 3.x .

Also see the first two line in logcat.. It says Vold is unable to mount some partition( I believe it fails to mount /sd-ext )

For testing I suggest everyone to use CM9 / CM10 WITHOUT any memory increasing scripts.( To avoid the use of /sd-ext partition)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] cute_prince:
@Yannou,

Bro, run the attached boot.img file and post here the dmesg. logcat is not required
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] lirokoa:
Just made somme try with cute_prince sources.

Seems all partition are mounted, cm9 boot, then after some time phone crash. Ril seems to work also.

Just added touchscreen driver in config to be able to navigate in phone, all my apps from sd ext partitions are there.

Good job to make it boot guyz, now need to fix usb :)
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] cute_prince:
I did exactly as Yannou said to get log messages .. But still logs not coming

Now I have no idea whats going wrong

---------- Post added at 10:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 PM ----------

@lirokoa,

does the phone crashed during bootanimation or after home screen showed up ???
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] lirokoa:
I can go past screen animation, unlock phone, enter pin, get a network...
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] cute_prince:
Wow.. bro, did you made any changes in the CM9 ramdisk ?? Also did you made any other changes in the kernel source other than adding ts driver ?

Which CM9 beta version are you using ???
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] lirokoa:
Im using cm9, with latest source and the device tree you can find on my github. No change in ramdisk.

In kernel sources, just playing with usb to try to get it to work.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] cute_prince:
I bacported USB driver stack from HTC Saga 3.x kernel source (yet to be committed to my git) because both uses same USB controller (MSM72k_udc) ..

Now re-writing USB portion of our board specific file for kernel 3.x
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] galaxyfreak:
Really happy to see all devs working on this. :D:D:D but why only lirokoa can boot kernel? Jojo upload just for testing. Boot img isnt big
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Yannou90:
log kernel

I must tune your init.rc to made it work :

service log /system/bin/log.sh

user root
group root
oneshot

The pico don't reboot well after 5 minutes I stop it

You find here boot.txt made with logcat and dmesg.txt with dmesg :silly:

You 'll find to boot.img mod for log
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] cute_prince:
@Yannou,

While testing, do you actually flash boot.img or issue fastboot boot boot.img ???
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Yannou90:
I use :

fastboot boot boot.img

Why?
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] cute_prince:
Previously when I didnt get any log messages even after doing exactly as you said, I thought maybe it was because I did fastboot boot boot.img rather than flashing the boot.img file .. I asked this just to confirm whether you were also using fastboot boot boot.img command rather than flashing it.
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] Yannou90:
Ok

No your init must have more permission , I just had it and it work
[HTC Pico (Explorer)] sakindia123:
i get to the same progress as others,crashes upon boot with cm9,and i did enable the touchscreen drivers(except lirokoa,who has a usable kernel)

i tried enabling panel drivers(CONFIG_FB_MSM_MIPI_DSI_TOSHIBA , CONFIG_FB_MSM_MIPI_DSI_RENESAS ,CONFIG_FB_MSM_MIPI_DSI_NOVATEK etc )in the config but it gets reset somehow,and the kernel compiles without them.which is strange,as the source file as well as the kconfig and makefile in drivers/video/msm_7x27A are exactly the same

I have a T-Mobile version of the Galaxy S3. The question is; is it worth paying full price for the Galaxy Note 2 if you have A Galaxy S3? Is it a huge enough upgrade to pay full retail price?

I'll be able to tell you Tuesday, as I'm in the same boat as you.

[Galaxy Note II General] manish21nov:
No doubt buddy ...even i was in same dilemma..... but after usng note 2 the experience is rocking...large screen ...extra smoothness.....extra ram.....and S pen.....FROM MY POINT DEFINATELY WORTH EVERY PENNY ..

AND DONT WORRY ABOUT SIZE U WILL GET USE TO IT then s3 will feel like a baby in hand ....rest all ur wish and desire..
[Galaxy Note II General] ericshmerick:
Well, if you sell your S3, you can significantly offset the cost of a Note 2. I've never owned an S3, but the times I've used them, they seem like a watered down Note. No S-Pen, no incredible battery life, no split screen apps, etc. I basically look at the S3 and feel it's a small Note with none of the benefits. It's kinda like a dumbphone, if you will, compared to the Note.

My take anyway. Up to you if it's worth the cost.
[Galaxy Note II General] awesomedeals88:
I have Jellybean on my S3 and still not sure if I should get the Note 2. If I still had the Galaxy 2 then I would upgrade in a heart beat.
[Galaxy Note II General] koahhe:
I upgraded from S3 and I am very happy I did. Got bored with the S3 very quickly as I didnt find that big of an upgrade over the S2. But the Note2, best phone I ever had by far. It really is amazing. So go for it and I am sure you wont regret it.
[Galaxy Note II General] awesomedeals88:
I will wait a little bit for the pricing of the note 2 to come down before I buy it full pricing whether on eBay or a holiday promo.
[Galaxy Note II General] androidizen:
Both excellent devices, the Note 2 is ideal if you want a bigger screen and more power, but either way the S3 is a great device.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] archangle_lp:
Last night I go into CWM and accidently press fix permissions after a while I reboot my phone

And now, everytime I go into Setting - Storage, a notification says "Unfortunately, Setting has stopped",

Also when I plug the phone to my PC it my internal and external storage are not shown on my desktop and it says "Unfortunately, USB Connectivity has stopped"

The thing is,when I remove my microsd, everything works fine, when I insert it, it's like there is a conflict between my microsd and internal storage. So without microsd my internal storage can be seen from Setting - Storage, but if microsd is inserted, none can be seen, and I can't even go into Setting - Storage

I'm using MT27i_6.1.1.B.1.10_Global.ftf ICS firmware

Things that I've tried

1. Wipe everything (Dalvik, cache, data, etc)

2. Do a system restore from CWM to the time when everything is fine

3. Fix my permission again

4. Re-install my firmware via PC Companion

5. Re-install my firmware via Flashtool

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Maled:
So i installed CM9 on my transformer and everything was ok. Eventually it turned off for some reason and kept getting stuck in a boot loop. I wiped everything using CWM 5.8.3.4 but now my tablet is stuck in CWM with no ROM to load. I cant mount my ex SD card and i cant mount my internal storage either. What do i do to fix it?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] serafis:
Do you have ADB access - i.e. is it visible on the PC? If not, first try cold reboot (Power + Vol-down for 12 seconds, then wait) undocked from keyboard and with USB disconnected.Connect to PC via USB and reboot to try to get ADB. If you still don't have ADB I'm sorry I don't know how to help.

If you have ADB, try this - it works on my TF101G. Go to http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1681155 and download PERI-0.4 One click root+recovery V0.4. Install it on your PC, run the .BAT file and follow the instructions. That should hopefully give you Root and Rogue Custom recovery that allows you to flash from internal or external SD.

From here you can flash a custom ROM from either internal or external storage. I've found that this Recovery won't flash the Asus stock ROM though,

If you want a version of CWM Recovery that will flash from internal or external storage, now download ClockWorkMod Recovery v6.0.1.4 NoTouch Hybrid from http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1855686 - click the Download link and get the cwm-6.0.1.4-notouch-hybrid.zip file (apparently the Touch version is currently broken). Copy to internal or external SD, reboot to recovery (Power+Vol-down for 12 secs, then Vol-up), wipe caches and flash CWM Recovery.

When you next reboot to Recovery, you should have a version of CWM that allows you to flash from internal or external SD.

There are other links you could have a look at too, e.g.

http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1681155

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCA.:
I've been calling T-Mo since mid-september to get info and possibly pre-order the note 2 as an upgrade but I've always been told that they don't do pre-orders and even if they did, they are having "major delays" with the GN2.

I've been eligible for an upgrade since the 26th of September.. I've been calling probably as much as 3x a week since then.. I was finally able to choose a new contract (and by the way you can't negotiate contacts for the GN2; no loyalty discounts either, just the set contracts for whatever reason), but they still have me waiting with no new release date given.

My question is: has anybody been able to upgrade to the GN2 from T-Mo/EE already?

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrvanx:
Yes, also I remained on my contract and just paid for the handset (£200). They were a bit cagey at first but I merely asked if I could remain on my normal contract instead of changing plans and they checked how much the phone would be.

I did lose out on my loyalty discount as a result but it is still cheap.

The major pain was that I had to pick up the handset from a tmobile store as stock is so light at the moment.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCA.:
So you didn't have to choose one of the set GN2 contacts? You were able to keep your current contract but you had to collect the phone from T-Mo? If you don't mind me asking, what are the details of your contact? (Allowances, length & cost)

Also, is the model you picked up the 4G ready version?

Sent from my GT-I9100
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrvanx:
Yes the LTE version (GT-N7105).

£200 for the handset

£31 a month, 500 texts, 600 minutes, web-n-walk plus upgrade (Which gets you 3GB a month and tethering etc...)

The contract is 18 months.

I used to have a £10 loyalty discount but the reduced handset cost wiped that off, which kinda sucks.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCA.:
That sounds perfect for me. Hopefully they do call tomorrow and I can ask for the same deal. I doubt they would let me keep my current contract cos I still have unlimited internet.

Thanks though.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Strat79:
This is a very glaring omission that I hope they fix at some point. I have become accustomed to using elixir 2 shortcut widgets as opposed to a full blown widget to preserve battery life. Only using CPU time when clicking the shortcut to see my 7x3 widget. It is almost a deal breaker for me honestly.

Not sure why long pressing on the home screen brings up the wallpaper select menu anyway. Much more user friendly as well as useful to use the default Android action of long pressing allowing you to select what to add, including shortcuts. I add things way more often than I change a wallpaper, as I would think most others would to.

Edit: I figured out how to make the Elixir shortcut widgets work but still problems with all the other ones as the OP has said. I still think the home screen long press should be different, anything is better than changing wallpaper but would prefer the old implementation of bringing up what to add to the home.
