xtacb4 : have you tried building a virtual machine as a development machine for android ? ... here and there I'm picking at it myself but would love to see some more people from our small community give it a stab... i don't have a lot of time for this, but i'm combing through the source and comparing some files to the device tree's that we've been using.

everything so far has been based off of dman's or for the galaxy r but I don't think anyone has made a device / vendor folder from scratch before porting roms.. thats been my focus so far, unfortunately there's very little for tegra as far as documentation goes.

im going to shift my effort to try and build a cm9 using the device tree from samsungs AT&T ics source... we'll see what happens over time...

though i'm more than likely to upgrade my phone to the Relay before there is any resolve i'll still give it a stab for the communities stake.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] xtacb4:
Never. Though santimaster2000 and I talked about it doing it him, as he is more coder inclined and I'm more tech support biased. Programming related is not my knack, but I'll give it a try, bare in mind I know what GIT is, but never even seen it, much less used it.

Could you provide where can I get some reading/guide/documentarion for a newbie like me?

Tnx.

First step, follow dman's compiling cm10 from scratch thread... talks about building the environment, step by step.. anything that doesnt work that you get hung up on, google the error code eventually you'll get to an answer. it's what i've been doing and why it's so time consuming. if i had no life or other hobbies i'd be all over this like i was when I was a teenager... getting familiar with the building environment, terminology etc.

Do this to get your hands dirty .. then ..

The part where he says "No we need to clone the device trees" and start with this :: git clone

git://github.com/The-Covenant/android_device_samsung_i927.git samsung/i927

This is where I believe the error is, this is the one thing common across ALL builds for our device.

You can get the source for AT&T's ICS from Samsung open source website, and if you do some googling, you can search up how to create a device tree for an unsupported device from scratch ...

This needs to be done literally from scratch, in the samsung source are some of the files ...

http://opensource.samsung.com/

... My hypothesis is :

If we can create a device tree using the ICS Source we could be able to build a CM9 fully working after we patch for keyboard, lights etc.

This is what I've been dabbling in when I do have time..

All of this needs to be done from Ubuntu Linux, though, so I hope you're a bit savvy with it because learning linux ... well, its another world ..

I'm an I.T. Tech as well, I've been in the game a long time ..I'm fluent in DOS and helped for learning linux as everythings command line.

Hey yohan4ws

I have little spare time also, and I don't even have kids, just friends an career; well I setup the VM etc, I'm stuck installing java, probably some versioning issues, just wanted to give an update. I will research the error and continue when I can get past this and probably more stuff I will run into, slowly but surely, I have the knack.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] yohan4ws:
Check out the Atrix 4G Forums, they have a kernel they've been working on that supposedly has all the drivers fixed for everything, but they are still experiencing issues with bluetooth like us. I don't think they ever had ICS released for their device.

That being said, however, since it is also Tegra2 I want to try and flash their CM7.2, CM9 and our Litekernels and see what happens...

[Samsung Captivate Glide] jadeisjaded:
This works for me. Whenever calls have no sound, just turn speakers on then off again. I'm going to be using this fix unless we get a better one.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] davidpartay:
I don't know if this is going to be of any help, but hopefully it might be :)

I have an app on my phone called "Tuner - gStrings Free". There was an update on my phone for it today, and one of the bug fixes was:

"Added Samsung 16kHz sampling bug workaround."

The app is designed by cohortor.org

Perhaps it might be possible to contact these guys and perhaps get a different perspective on how the BT and audio issues could be resolved? I don't know if it's related, but I felt it was worth bringing up as you never know unless you try :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] yohan4ws:
Nice! I sent the dev an email.

What would actually be kickass is if you could take a logcat of executing the app and then doing a tune of your guitar... it might actually show what it does
[Samsung Captivate Glide] xtacb4:
I throwed the towel, I'm giving up, I do not have the time nor the knowledge to be any help.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] uukgoblin:
Hello guys,

I know it's been a while, but I'm still using the Glide as IMO there's no better phone on the market yet (because I love physical keyboards).

I read this whole thread to see if I could find any pointers on what might be wrong, but I'm still not sure where we are.

I'm interested in solving the issue with loud static on the Bluetooth HFP/HSP headsets during a call, on any ROM that has the stagefright security fixes. I'm experiencing this issue on bubor's 4.4. The best ROM I'm aware of which doesn't have this problem is steadfasterX's sediROM - however that's vulnerable to stagefright.

The biggest question I have is why can't 4.1+ ROMs just use all the binary drivers as supported by AT&T/Samsung in the 4.0.4 ICS release? What's causing the problem? AFAIK such ROMs recompile all things from some sources that we got at some point from Samsung. That's what makes sediROM stand apart - it's kinda a set of patches to all the binary stuff in ICS (again, AFAIK).

I'm a C, C++ and sometimes Java (and others) coder with a devops~y background, and would be willing to donate both time and money to fix this. I've written up a small "glue" library that interfaces the AudioPolicy HAL from ICS and translates the calls to provide a KK interface. When I tried to use it on KK with the ICS libs stored in a chroot (as it was designed to be), it segfaulted (no surprise). There might be a bug somewhere, I'd need to spend more time on it, but I'm guessing it also needs the Audio and possibly some Bluetooth HALs from ICS running. I'd be willing to try gluing those APIs too, but I have a feeling it may not be the best way to proceed. Someone on IRC said that later Androids should be backwards compatible with earlier HALs using some sizeof() magic, so it's probably a good idea to try...

I'm not very knowledgeable about Android, although I succeeded building some stuff for it. Any help would be appreciated.

Of course the best thing to do would be to find the original problem and provide a fix for it in the open sources of the drivers... since we have kernel sources it should theoretically be possible to reverse engineer what the original drivers are actually doing to the hardware, but it's a huge task and I'm not really sure I have the skills to undertake it.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bubor:
i927 has many other issue ( slow hw, missing NEON), you may buy t699 what has keyboard, and less bugs.

You can find ics soure pack from samsung here.

I dont undestand bluetooth at all.

We tried to use original audio HAL from ICS in 4.2. Result was:

- some bug ( needed to switch sound input on every phone call)

- voip sound worked

- phone and other sound worked

- but still no bt phone audio

Fixing voip audio with tinyalsa HAL or write new HAL much more easier task, but still nobody managed.

Tinyalsa has issue phone sound doesnt work always. Same tinyalsa HAL works fine on a similar phone.

I could help you with android build.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Wr4i7h:
Would this wrapper help solve these issues without switching HALs around at runtime?

Edit: alternatively, would setting ICS_AUDIO_BLOB while building CM10 (or later) allow the old ICS HAL to work properly? Was this ever tried?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bubor:
That case was described in my last comment.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Brandon:
If you're like me, I wanted a great rubber case plus something to store the tablet in that would be tough enough to throw around in a backpack or get wet and still keep my Nexus alive. Came up with this combo and it works great!

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006FR1KHE/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

You have to take the liners out of the Pelican case to make room (they are just taped in), but in the end the tablet with the silicone case fits nicely in the Pelican, taking up minimal room and is literally bomb proof. The Bob J Gear case is by far the best silicone case I've seen. Not a cheap piece of crap. Very thick, PERFECT fit, etc. And Pelican products, if you're not familiar with them, are some of the best of their kind that money can buy.

Anyways, just wanted to post this up real quick for those that might have been looking for the same thing I was.

Hello everyone, I know there are solutions for this all over XDA, there are too hard to follow since I dont like rooting androids, but just hear me out.

I'm trying to fix my brother's phone, It's a Tmobile LG Optimus One T.

He rooted it, and installed CyanogenMod 7, then he did factory reset, so it got stuck in the Android logo when you turn it on.

So I wanted to uninstall cyanogenmod and install the Stock ROM Firmware.

I installed SDK on my laptop, and Im looking for the stock files.

I know he should have made a backup before he installed cyanogenmod but it got deleted after he erased the SD card.

BTW, I unmounted the system and data files by accident because I thought I could remount them after I reboot, instead it got stuck in Fastboot mode.

Right now the cell phone says this when you turn it on:

fastboot mode started

udc_start suspend
