[Galaxy Note II Android Development] 白い熊:
I've followed the steps from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1299962 basically, and crosscompiled glibc and some basic GNU tools, to run natively on the Note 2.

Now, I'm running into some problems, which I need help with from crosscompiling gurus...

Basically, what I did:

- Setup crosstool-ng on the PC.

- Downloaded the Note 2 source from Samsung.

- Got include/drm/exynos_drm.h elsewhere on the web, as it was bombing without it, and for some reason, it's not in Samsung sources.

- Built a crosscompiling toolchain. I set:

target architecture - arm

endianness - little

fpu - neon

instruction set mode - arm

eabi - enabled

vendor string - exynos

alias - arm-linux

os - linux

c library - glibc

threading - nptl

- With it, built glibc for the Note, built no prob. Built also GNU tar to start experimenting.

Now, I transfered glibc and the tar dirs to the Note.

As the author says at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1299962:

Anyhow for me now, when I try to run the tar executable, I get:

No such file or directory

This even with the glibc lib dir symlinked to /lib, and/or setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the glibc lib dir.

file tar gives me:

so all's looking right.

Why can't I get it to run?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] 白い熊:
This is proving to be a somewhat great course on crosscompiling for me.

So, messing with it, and making advances - was able to get the compiled executables to run after bindmounting arm-exynos-linux-gnueabi/sysroot/lib dir, which was built by the toolchain to the phone's /lib directory.

Now getting mixed errors and failures caused by ld etc when running GNU tools built against androids libc, so need to mess with terminal on the phone to get just the glibc to loaded on running, but it's progressing...

It seems I'll be able to do this.

I'm almost there, I just need to crosscompile gcc and then I can build the necessary GNU tools natively.

I'm just figuring out how to crosscompile gcc, as it depends on mpc, gmp, and mpfr, and having no experience with crosstompiling I'm figuring out how to compile depends and link against them, whether they should be native or crosscompiled...

But I should be able to figure it out soon, very close now towards full working GNU tools on the Note 2.
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] 白い熊:
OK, need help, have asked for it at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/...with-crosstool-ng-have-toolchain-which-archit also.

If anyone could assist, here goes:

I've built the crosscompiling toolchain with crosstools-ng.

I've cross compiled glibc, fine.

Have built a couple native arm (arm-exynos-linux-gnueabi) utils, like tar etc. and confirmed they work on the Android phone, when symlinking the built x-tools sysroot's lib directory to /lib on the android machine.

Now I need to build the native gcc, so I can develop on the machine. I'm having some philosophical problems with crosscompiling, as I'm relatively inexperienced in it.

I'd therefore like to ask how to proceed in steps exactly, as I've already spent two days with a trial-by-error approach, and so far no luck.

So: gcc depends on mpc, which depends on mpfr, which depends on gmp.

So, how do I proceed?

Which architecture deps do I build, with which host target and build options?

make a tools dir and build these deps there, so as not to mess with the functioning toolchain?

gmp (no host, build, target?)

mpfr (same?)

mpc (same?)

then gcc, how? --host=arm-exynos-linux-gnueabi --build=i686-build_pc-linux-gnu --target=arm-exynos-linux-gnueabi ?

Is this right, or am I messing up in some of the above steps?

Incidentally, I've followed this guide http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1299962 to build the crosstool-ng toolchain, and it recommends compiling the native apps just with --host=arm...

I've been doing that, and they do work on the Android system, though it doesn't seem right to me, shouldn't it be --target=arm...?
[Galaxy Note II Android Development] Nazar78:
+1 ... I'm interested too, keep it up OP... So far I've only successfully build my own perl/libperl.so and runs great on my note2 from http://code.google.com/p/perldroid

[Galaxy Note II Android Development] 白い熊:
I've proceeded further, have built glibc 2.14 for the N7100, works, compiled gcc and some utils. The problem for now is that there is a bug in glibc 2.14 making statically compiled binaries fail on dynamic calls to libraries... It should be fixed in glibc 2.16...

So am experimenting now, trying to figure out how to add the latest glibc version support to crosstool-ng... If anyone knows, chime in.

If you don't use metro, there is the annoying metro app switcher (Win + tab) on the left side of the screen which shows up whenever you take the mouse to the top left corner. I have often accidently dragged in a metro app when i was trying to drag the corner window and in the same manner, I've found a fix.

To close that switcher for the current session (comes back after log off/log in or restart), right click in the top left corner and then click on close and whoosh, one less crap to deal with.

The normal switcher (alt + tab) still works great even with the metro apps if you're forced to use any.

Or you can permanently disable it from the right bar: settings/computer settings/common. The first slider from the menu is for automatic summer/winter time and the second for disabling the metro stuff. My system is not in english so I'm not sure if names are correct.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vecnaa:
Hi Everyone,

Question - I cut down a regular sized sim card received from AT&T for the go phone that looks like this:

I can't post outside links yet but here is the photo -

i49.tinypic.com/rku2oi.jpg

When I power on the phone I get a "no sim" error - tried to enable and disable flight mode and it gave the error "sim card crash check your sim card or contact customer care" (that did not show up when I had 0 sim cards installed)

Anyone successfully get a gophone sim card to work? I saw some sim cards with more contact points (longer or wider) so not sure if this is the right type for the phone.

After failing in the I9300 I inserted it back into my dumbphone that I used to active the card earlier and it read the card without issues.

Also, if this happens to be the wrong type of sim card what do I do? Should I call AT&T and ask for a different type of sim card? purchase it from somewhere on the internet and activate it?

Thanks for your help in advance!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dlads:
If you have even sliced any of the metal contact then its game over.

Time for a new sim.

Regardless If it works in other phones.

Its never fool proof, plus the sim type does matter.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vecnaa:
Thanks! Do you know if the sim type I have in that picture is the right type? Is there a specific model or something that I can ask for from AT&T?

Btw this case is horrible dont waste your money back button takes forever to respond to your touch if it responds at all , the touch sensitivity sucks , the only way you can talk to people is on speaker phone ,

When you try to talk to someone on the phone they can hardly hear you , and when your listening to them best way to describe it is they sound like robots

When you watch tv or your phone rings the sound is so muffed and distorted it vibrates the phone

Just prove that I actually do have this case pictures attached lol

[Galaxy S III Accessories] wyzguy:
When Seidio had their February giveaways I decided what the heck and posted on their blog. Lo and behold I won a free case. Now that I've had it for a couple weeks I figured I'd share my thoughts. Yes it's a beefy case, and it has protected against a few falls already. Some people say it's too "blocky", to each their own I guess. They (Seidio) say the audio is unaffected by the membrane, it definitely is, but is greatly improved with the bottom flap open. The screen protector is great. Nice and smooth, the dots that people complain about are quite visible at some angles, but never really bother me. The back button is tricky at times being in the corner where it is, but the menu button which is in the same "situation" seems fine. Touch sensitivity seems fine, rarely do I notice skipping swipes or missed taps. Dragging down from the top is fine from either side of the speaker cover. Speaking of that speaker, I haven't really noticed much difference on calls, maybe a little muffled but not much. No echo a few people mention and I seem to sound fine at the other end. All in all I like the case, it's not perfect, but a good compromise for the protection.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kingston73:
I just bought and started using this case and so far I really like it. Yes, sound is a little muffled but far from unusable, and the screen protector is great. I read lots of reviews and many said the screen was unresponsive and the menu and back buttons were hard to use...I say bull honkers to that. I'm not sure what those people are doing but the screen works without any issues and its actually better than the lifeproof case I had been using.

It's not any more bulky than a defender or the puregear case I had before, it doesn't feel overly large or bulky and it actually looks pretty good IMO.

It's not for everybody but if you want great protection don't be scared off by the negative reviews. I'll post up pictures of mine when I get the time and ill post back after I've used it a little while but initial impressions are really good.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kingston73:
Here's a somewhat long term use update, after a few weeks of use now I still really like this case. It is definitely "installation sensitive", I've opened the case a couple times now and if I follow the exact procedure and take my time things sound fine, but a couple times I've rushed the installation and the phone sounded terrible afterwards. It seems to be dependent on how the phone's microphone lines up with the openings in the case, apparently if you don't position the phone just-right the microphone will be covered and make you sound like Charlie Brown's teacher - wah wah wah...

When it's installed right things are great, and 3 days now it's saved my phone. I got caught in a down pour on my way home from work one day on the motorcycle, the phone would have been ruined without this case. Seidio has a 20% discount code somebody posted in another thread so now would be a good time if you want one.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Bruce Lee:
The case is really cheap on Amazon right now too. Here is a link.

Description

After months of work, the long awaited PACman 4.2 rom is ready for public released. This is still work in progress WIP and there are many missing parts. Though the rom is rock stable for average users. We are working on it daily to fill the missing parts.

Now what is PACman? The idea was to remove the need for a hunt of rom and cure flasholicsm by providing everything xda has in rom development in a single bloat free rock stable rom. This is the FIRST rom of its kind with a hybrid framework consisting on cm10.1, AOKP and AOSPA. What makes PACman unique is this perfect blend of all of these. Be informed PACman is not a "git cherry-pick blahblah yeee i am a dev donatezzz me" rom. It took a LOT of work of thinking behind to merge the frameworks in the right order.

I have the 2.5 and love it. Honestly it's the best one I've ever had, and I've had the first gen and 2 2.0's (both 2.0 were crap). You need to get in touch with their airave service techs to get things straightened out as noted above, but they've been able to solve any issues I've ever had. They even have a separate group email address which will get them to respond literally within minutes unless they're currently swamped. I sent them an email to call me about an issue and within 5 minutes they called me. I'll see if I can find the email addy and I'll post it up if I can.
