Just fixed it on CWM/TWRP (I hope - works for me on recovery).

Feedback is appreciated if you try it out. Make sure, as it says above, to do a Nandroid, then wipe data/cache, then flash.

Also, the screen is black for a while between when the "Booting Cyanogenmod" disappears and the "Android" boot animation appears.

Camcorder and changing cpu speeds brings system to a halt, bluetooth won't turn on either. Loving it so far though. As long as wireless works we're good lol
[Other TouchPad Development] castrwilliam:
System Tuner Pro seems to be able to change CPU clocks. The normal System Tuner probably can, too. I do notice that it takes a while to take effect in the UI. If I knew where in procfs/sysfs I have to go to verify that it worked, I would.

Right now I'm having moderate success building the CM7 libaudio inside the AOSP Froyo source tree. That's what was keeping us from sound.

Sense ROM? I've never owned or coded on an HTC device... perhaps it does make it easier, you probably know better than I.
[Other TouchPad Development] jacobas92:
I was using kernel tuner and setcpu, and it was freezing but now they both set clock speeds just fine.

I don't know what it is about froyo, but honestly I prefer it over ICS or JB any time. I guess for me it just really has that android "feel" to it.
[Other TouchPad Development] castrwilliam:
I'm glad it works for you. For a minute last night I had a brain block on /proc/cpuinfo (the "file in procfs" I was speaking of.) Unfortunately, it doesn't change at all with dynamic CPU frequency scaling, so I still don't have another way to verify the clock speed.

I'm trying my best to get audio working. Currently I've made a sorta Frankenstein setup by checking out AOSP Froyo source code and splicing in parts of the CM7-Tenderloin device directory. It builds, but it segfaults slightly after the audio hardware is initialized. I'm recompiling everything with full debugging symbols, and pushing (hopefully) mediaserver, libaudio, libaudiopolicy, libaudioflinger, alsa.tenderloin.so and a few others. I already modded my init.rc to produce core dumps, because this newfangled gdbserver thing actually crashes in and of itself when I try to use it...
[Other TouchPad Development] jwhood:
Thanks for the info,ive always wanted a sense rom on my touchpad,but my skills are limited,i tried to port it over but would only end it endless boot loops,seeing that your program that your working on has froyo working on it made me wonder if it would be easier to get it to work with your program,great work though on your end!!!!

[Other TouchPad Development] castrwilliam:
Audio working!!

I just got audio to work. It went through some 5 segfaults solved by replacing some 20 shared libraries with ones build from my Frankenstein tree. For a while I was worried I'd run into trouble with a binary blob, and it'd all be over, but no, it works. I'm going to update my on-disk image of the /system partition... that is, once I tire of hearing Pandora Dubstep on Froyo and get the nerve to reboot my TP into another OS so I can safely image the filesystem in a good, unmounted state. :P

ATTENTION: I got wind that Dropbox will suspend people for too much bandwidth usage. I want a mirror soon. Can anybody tell me who to talk to to get, say, a Goo IM account or put me in touch with someone who already has one and can host my file?

Edit: Small bug makes the headphones occasionally be silent when plugged in. Rebooting fixes it.

I'm making a zip now.
[Other TouchPad Development] atrix4g18:
Just use MediaFire. It works well and you'll have plenty of bandwidth.

Off Topic: Is anyone working on developing for Ubuntu anymore? I remember something about making drivers for the GPU
[Other TouchPad Development] castrwilliam:
Thanks for the tip. As for Ubuntu, I was actually thinking of copying over the ALSA asound.conf (from /system/usr/share/elsa), and then chrooting into it from Android and doing an "alsactl save", to see if configuration really is the only thing keeping us from sound on Ubuntu. If it is, that should make sound work.

edit: That didn't work, "alsactl" will hang when you try to restore the config. Obviously the alsa driver does something more than that, but now that I have the source right in frnnt of me, maybe it will be possible to hack togethter a program that initializes it and quits.
[Other TouchPad Development] castrwilliam:
Auto Rotation and Search softkey. Brought to you by native C code.

I'm moving this to the non-Other dev board. It's technically Android Development.

I just made new version of the ROM with auto-rotation (although only 0 degrees and 90 work) and a more-usable way to emulate softkeys.

I rewrote the shell script which managed the softkeys in C, and (also in C) made a companion app that calls the Activity Manager and runs some random dude's rotation setting app. (The apk for that app is less than 50 K. It works for me.)

THE BUTTON COMBOS HAVE CHANGED. This is the first time, and hopefully the last, unless/until someone ports over a statusbar mod like CM7 has.

New buttons:

Center = Home

Volume Up = Volume Up

Volume Down = Volume Down

Center + Volume Up = Menu

Center + Volume Down = Back

Volume Up + Volume Down = Search

Other changes:

DPI is now 240

Lock screen is now in (correctly rotated) portrait mode.

(An extra "ts_srv" is available that you need to use if you change the hardware rotation back to landscape.)

Source code for the two daemons, rotationd and buttond, is attached. The ROM will be updated shortly.

(I'm going to need to test that simply copying the <50K apk to /system/app integrates it, which I doubt is the case. I really don't want to have to have you all install it.)

If you need any kexec help, try getting in touch with mkasick. He might respond to PM's on here, I don't really know, but I do know that he's usually in a few channels of IRC at irc.irondust.net and he uses the same name on there so you could message him on there.

I've had a similar idea with kexec, for the Motorola Razr i, but with the intent of getting an x86 Linux, perhaps eventually Grub and other OS's (Windows?) running natively.

Thank you all for your support, though.
[Other TouchPad Development] atrix4g18:
So this will mean multiple kernels? We will be able to have multiple linux distros and so on? Also does this help in anyway with the windows rt project?
[Other TouchPad Development] castrwilliam:
Yes, multiple kernels - even more than you can fit in /boot. The installer I'm coding right now places them in the root of the OS which they boot into. You can fill up your whole screen with kernels/OSes in this menu, as opposed to moboot that's limited to < 32MB of kernels in /boot.

It uses grub-like configuration files which are located on the same partition as each kernel/initramfs (or set of them.)

They have to be split into a zImage and optional compressed initrd. The multi images that moboot uses won't work. Also, there seems to be a hard limit somewhere between 3 and 4 megabytes for the combination of the kernel and initrd. I use LZMA instead of g-zip to compress everything for that reason; it turns a 4 MB kernel/initrd into a 2.8MB one (typically).

You can also disable unneeded features when you recompile a kernel, that's how I got the kexec kernel itself so small. The ramdisk for it is huge (1.3 MB under LZMA, as opposed to 0.1MB for a LZMA'd CM10 ramdisk) but the kernel has a lot disabled so that it doesn't interfere with hardware by initializing it.

My installer splits the moboot images, and can "patch" ramdisks to work with the multiboot compatible partitioning scheme, but it can't patch kernels and force them to work [yet.]

Therefore, when you install a new OS, you'll need a recompiled kernel from me until I submit pull requests (for the patch attached to my post, I'm not hiding anything) to all the major kernel devs, and then until they are merged for the kernel you want to use. In all cases, you want it to be LZMA

compressed on both kernel and initramfs.

Progress Update: the basic menu code for my installer is finished. I need to copy over the shell script code from SmackMe and rewrite it as system() calls under C.

[Other TouchPad Development] atrix4g18:
Nonono, not like that. It will boot multiple kernels that are compatible with the Touchpad. I'm not certain of how it works, but it means multiple ROMs at once. Another key feature is more space for the boot images. The /boot/ partition can't fit a lot of images. Watch the video he posted to YouTube.

I see sorry about my misunderstanding i see he has like 8 different os on his screen that is what threw me off,but if some one modded a kernel to work with sense on are t.p then in therory his program would work,correct me if im wrong??

If someone ported a sense rom to the Touchpad, then this would be able to boot it, yes. But I don't think any dev is interested in porting one atm.

Hello, I know this sounds very foolish, but I have erased everything off my device including the /system directory (and some others). It will not boot at all (of course). The Motorolla symbol pops up for less than a second, and the device shuts down. I am wondering if it is possible to install a bootloader or Android.

Thanks,

[Droid 2 General] sd_shadow:
put your D2G(/D2) in bootloader mode, power down and power on while either holding both volume buttons, or the up arrow on the keyboard.

then flash .sbf system restore image

don't leave phone on till you are ready to flash because battery likely will not charge like that

[Galaxy S III Accessories] k2snowboards88:
Right now I have the Silacrylic. I like the protection it provides and it's the thickest case that I can live with. I don't like how hard the silicone around the top and bottom edges makes the phone difficult to get in and out of my pocket. Two other cases interest me; the Faxion and the NGP.

The Faxion may be just what I'm looking for. It looks similar to the silacrylic but without the silicone. Is it still protective? I've never had a TPU case. Does it actually absorb shock like silicone or is it a big step down in protection? Also, the front rim seems very tiny compared to the silacrylic in the images that I've seen. The front rim seems like it's the single most important part of a case, so I hope it's still enough to keep the screen off of the ground on rough surfaces like sidewalks. If not, then I'm not sure I see a purpose in having such a bulky case at all.

I would be inclined to get the NGP. it seems that if the Faxion isn't that protective, then I might as well step down to something very slim. It looks like it would still help with falling on linoleum and wooden floors at home and home is really the only place I drop my phones. I'm the least caution there. I think the grip of the silacrylic is the reason why I haven't dropped my GS3 at all yet. I think the NGP would provide that function as well. How is the front rim on the NGP? Do you think the case would protect against drops around the house? I know about the buttons and I'm unconcerned.

Thanks for reading my long post. Do you have any advice?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JohnnyDanger:
Ive looked around the internet, and here, and cant really figure something out. Do I have to install CM10 from fastboot or can I just install the zip using TWRP?

I ask because I tried installing the stable version of CM10 using TWRP and when I reboot I just get the spinning Cyanogenmod logo for a long time. Nothing ever happens.

Am I doing something wrong?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] area51avenger:
Did you make a backup of your stock Rom? Log into that. Get flashimagegui and use on the cm10 zip then boot back into twrp and install the zip.

Or

Open the cm10 zip on your computer. Extract boot.img. put your phone in fastboot. Put the boot.img in your fastboot folder and type fastboot flash boot boot.img
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JohnnyDanger:
Thanks a lot. I will do that right now. Appreciate the help.

Is flashimagegui an android app? Thats the only reference to it I can find.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] area51avenger:
Yes it is. There is a donation version on play store. Or there's an xda free version if you search the forums
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JohnnyDanger:
Well, looks like something might have gone wrong and I fear I might be SOL. I used flashimagegui then returned to TWRP to install CM10. I still got the spinning log. I went to restore my backup and I cant boot back into my back up. During bootup a HTC logo comes up with some red text (like its going to go into revocery) and then the screen goes blank. Nothing happens after that. If I turn off the phone and power on again, the same thing happens. I can turn it off then and go through the steps to get back into recovery. I have no idea what do to now. Any recommendations?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] codeprimate:
what version of hboot is on your device? if it is one of the later ones (1.12+) then you'll need to flash the boot img seperately. If this is the case, (and it sounds like it , as the same thing happened to me and the symptoms where the same).

Extract it from the ROM that you are flashing (open the zip file and drag out the boot.img). Then while TWRP is running, connect the USB cable to your comp and fire up a terminal (you'll need ADB/fastboot set up and working - search google or XDA for how to do it in your operating system).

Once you have adb/fastboot working and TWRP running -> at a terminal (or command prompt on windows) use adb to push the rom onto the sdcard, and then reboot to bootloader and select fastboot.

run "fastboot flash boot boot.img" without the quotes. This should write the kernel image to the boot partition, and then you should be able to load TWRP to (wipe cache/dalvik and then) reflash cyanogen mod.

Good luck
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Passa91:
If you can still boot into recovery, you're fine. Manually flash the CM10 boot.img with fastboot, do a full wipe in TWRP and then reinstall the CM10 zip + gapps. Should be good after that.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JohnnyDanger:
Thanks for the info, from both of you. Im going to try that right now.

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] codeprimate:
did you do a factory reset from the bootloader by any chance? this can corrupt the sdcard, and might cause this. only use the factory reset from recovery.

if you did, try this (http://forums.team-nocturnal.com/showthread.php/1050).

---------- Post added at 02:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:28 PM ----------

Check that it says fastboot usb on your phone. You might not be in fastboot mode.

Otherwise, maybe try a different USB port on your computer, I've had issues trying to get it to detect through a usb hub, so plug it directly inot the computer to rule this out.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JohnnyDanger:
I didnt use the factory reset option from the bootloader. Being that I didnt, should I still try the directions on the link you gave?

When I go into fastboot is start off just saying "fastboot". If I press the volume up or down button is changes to "fastboot usb". I didnt even think about trying a different usb port, I will see if that makes a difference.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] codeprimate:
can you get into TWRP? if you can, go to the mount menu and see if you can unmount and then remount the sdcard. If you can do this, then you have no need to do the team-nocturnal sdcard fix.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JohnnyDanger:
I was able to unmount and then remount the sdcard. Actually, when I went into Mount menu in TWRP to begin with it gave me the option to Mount, then unmount. Is that the same thing? Does that mean my sdcard is not mounted and should I mount it in TWRP?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JohnnyDanger:
I was finally able to flash the boot.img. I then went into TWRP to install CM10. It installed and now is back into the spinning logo. Im ready to give up on this. Any more suggestions?

Just a thought, should I be removing the boot.img from the CM10 zip Im trying to install?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] area51avenger:
No don't remove it. Did you wipe data/system before installing. And wipe cache/dalvik after? Also the first boot could take up to 5 minutes sometimes
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] JohnnyDanger:
Ive been trying to install the latest stable build of CM10. I decided to try the most recent Nightly now. That seemed to work. The spinning just stopped and Im on the welcome screen. FINALLY! Thank you guys for all the help. Never had such a hard time with installing a custom rom before.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] codeprimate:
No worries man, good luck with your One X, I hope the worst is behind you now.

If you are feeling confident, there is a method to downgrade your hboot so you don't need to stuff around flashing the boot image separately. This however does involve bricking and then de-bricking your device, and you'll need a linux computer to pull it off, so this isn't for everyone.

Hello!

I've experiencing a weird issue with my phone recently. Some of the custom roms when installed function smoothly without any hindrance. After a couple of days the phone just refuses to charge.

I have read some posts in several other forums about this problem, in many cases, the reason is a faulty usb cable, even the one provided originally with the device, try with another good quality cable, another cause could be some dirt inside the usb port in the device, even a tiny piece of lint can cause trouble, inspect both, cellphone and cable, luck.
