I'm still using our awesome little phone everyday. Currently running the MTD version from the starting post.

I just came across this CM11 ROM and have a few questions:

Is it rooted?

Camera working?

Calls and SMS?

Mobile data and WiFi?

Bluetooth?

GPS?

Overall speed (compared to CM7 MTD)?

I'm really excited to try CM 11 on this phone. But it's still my primary phone, so some hints would be nice before I turn this ancient piece of electronic into a brick :silly:

Thanks
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] D@rekills4:
Root is having issues.

Camera is not working

Call and SMS working

Mobile data and WiFi working

Bluetooth not working

No idea about GPS, cannot confi because no Maps app and cannot installed it because of no space, haven't tried Link2SD yet.

Overall speed:

It's the first build so terrible, do not use as daily driver. Stick with CM7, it's still the best.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] DerpyDerp:
Thanks for the quick reply. Okay, I guess I'll use CM7 a little longer. Root and camera are essential for my usage. So maybe CM11 will get its chance once my lovely phone is almost dead. For now it's still running like a clockwork. Just recently, it got the second replacement battery and a new screen cover / digitizer (I broke the original one while cleaning, lol).
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] D@rekills4:
Well my exams are getting over in a month, maybe I could try my hand development. Hopefully my phone stays alive till that time.

But with such less RAM I am guessing things would be very difficult.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] dafonehacker:
I wouldn't really recommend investing time in cm11 for this phone. Cm11 is already quite slow on the sgs1, I can't imagine it will ever get fast enough to be usable on this phone. If someone is still willing to invest time in this phone, I think it'd be better spent on cm9 or cm10, that would make the phone a bit less outdated, anything newer is really going to be slow as hell.

The cm11 experimental was nice as a proof of concept, but I don't think it's worth anyone's time anymore...

True, but it's worth a shot. :D

I have given the phone to my aunt, once I get it back I will look into it. But I am pretty sure nothing is going to run on it. :DD

Let's see.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] m1trand1r:
If you're really really bored and have nothing else to do...than it's worth a shot ;)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] D@rekills4:
Wow, you are here as well.

Well, two people are interested, worth a shot then. ;)

I will ask my aunt about the phone, will get it in a week I guess.

Let this be the beginning of my Android development. :P

Hello everybody.

Is it possible to edit overclocked 1ghz kernel to hit 1.2ghz for MTD version of CM7 for GT-I5800 ?

Any developer has already done this ?

Thanks
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] DerpyDerp:
Hi fellow developers,

I'm still using our phone everyday but it got buggy with 2016 (see here). In short: The hardware clock does not work properly with the year 2016. So I looked at the kernel source (link in the first post) and found the code that reads and writes the hardware clock. I wanted to mess around with the code and see if I'm able to workaround the hardware limitation(?) somehow.

Now I'm sitting here, compiling the kernel to a zImage. But I'm not sure how to proceed. The kernel compiled without errors and the files look fine (zImage - 5.0MB and Image - 7.9MB) but how do I get this kernel on my phone. And the most important point: Am I able to recover if the new kernel is somehow corrupted and not working properly?

Thanks in advance - I love you guys :D
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] mankokoma:
I think you can put the zImage in an uncompressed tarball an flash it with ODIN - look at the OP

There's also the possibility to put the zImage into an update.zip and flash it via CWM with 'updaterscript' commanding 'dd if=zimage of=/partition/where/kernel/is' - but I'm not sure if this works with the MTD Version because the partitions are named another way than usual in the Galaxy3..

I think with tarball and ODIN is best and you can flash a working kernel rightaway if something goes wrong.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] DerpyDerp:
Thank you!

I'm gonna fire up my old dusty Windows machine with ODIN when I have some free time and see what happens. Once the "normal" kernel makes no problems after flashing, I'll check what I can do to mess with the hardware clock.

Maybe we can set the hardware clock to something like 10 years ago and the software clock (Android system) to the correct time. So on each hardware read we add 10 years to the timestamp and on each write we subtract 10 years from the timestamp. This way the system gets the correct time (2016) and the hardware is in a non-buggy timerange (before 2016). Let's see what I can do ;)

I am still pretty optimistic, so wish me luck :p

ps: Kinda cool that you're from Berlin as well. :highfive:
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] DerpyDerp:
Okay... I got some new information and some questions.

Up to this point I spend some hours compiling, flashing and failing. Here is what I tried:

Everybody's out there having fun at bars and ****... And I'm just sitting here compiling kernels and stuff :p

Compiling the kernel following the instructions in build.sh. I got compile errors with this one.

Compiling the kernel with the "old" configuration file ".config". I got a working zImage, ODIN did not complain. But my phone got stuck on the "GT-I5800" logo and was not showing up as a USB device.

I tried other configuration files ("galaxy3mtd_defconf") with no luck. It got stuck on the logo too, but it was still showing up as a USB device in "lsusb". This image was also significantly smaller than the others.

I compiled with the "original" config file extracted from the running kernel on my phone. It compiled, but after flashing also got stuck at "GT-I5800" (not showing up in "lsusb").

I'm kinda out of ideas what to try next. I knew that kernel compiling is tricky and not easy at all but I should at least get a running kernel at some point, right?

I'd be happy about any hints, ideas, suggestions, what ever... Thanks ;)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] DerpyDerp:
Here we go again... (Spoiler: Got it working 100%) - I'm talking to myself here, but I like to share this stuff with you :)

Problem was the "pmem" implementation. Searched our "OpenFIMG" thread and found some fixes here and here. Bootanimation, camera, rotate transition ... working like a charm.

I flashed the attached tar file directly after flashing the 1GHz overclocked kernel. It should work... but again: No guarantee :angel: So enjoy your Galaxy3 with the correct hardware time and working alarms and notifications. It's overclocked to 1GHz too.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] m1trand1r:
[MENTION=4578906]DerpyDerp[/MENTION] I believe you're not talking to yourself ... [MENTION=3404423]marcellusbe[/MENTION] and [MENTION=3398727]mankokoma[/MENTION] and others are watching you...
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] mankokoma:
Thanks a lot! m1trand1r is right, you're not talking to yourself! Had to search for my old windowsXP-VM with the i5800 Stuff... BTW, under Linux (suse) VMware-Player can handle the USB-flash-with-odin-thing, VirtualBOX can't! Then I had to realize that I forgot how to use ODIN (didn't use it for nearly three years) - Where to put the tar-file (BOOT PHONE PDA CSC) No: It's the 'One Package' section..... lol, had to do a looong research for that to find out - the pics unfortunately are gone here in the odin for dummies...(like me). As I use the phone usually only as a _telephone_ (my new 'toy' is this also outdated xperia m) we will see how it works as a clock now ;) The first Alarm Test was okay and the 'google authenticator' timing is also alright - so lets see. Once more a BIG thanks a lot, ekrik@fedora!
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] galoneta:
Thanks very much for this fix!

Had to use an app to fix time and sync on every boot to handle this problem! Will test this asap and return here! This phone is now with a friend that has noticed this weird behavior in 2016.

Thanks again!

PS: can you make a 1.2 or 1.4ghz build as we had in previous g3 roms?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] DerpyDerp:
Here it is ;)

I have not tested this kernel! Like before: No guarantee! Flash with Odin as One Package.

I also removed some debug flags. So your phone could be 0.01% faster even on 1Ghz :silly:
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] galoneta:
Guys, just reporting:

Tested kernel from this post (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64725288&postcount=257): the 1GHz build and it is working fine so far: date is always correct now!

As soon as possible, will test the 1.4GHz in my other g3: this one is the one with high overclock history on previous roms.

Master DerpyDerp, Thanks again!

[Galaxy 3 Android Development] mankokoma:
which one 1GHz or the 1.4GHz? Mine is runnig still well with the 1GHz. Had not time yet to try the 1.4 but I always had problems with OC more than 1.2 in my device...

@galoneta: Already tested?
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] apollo-:
the 1.4Ghz wil test the 1Ghz :)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] galoneta:
"As soon as possible, will test the 1.4GHz in my other g3: this one is the one with high overclock history on previous roms."

This other G3 I had was my overclock "hero": worked fine with 1.4GHz roms. This phone is far from me now!

The other one wich is with me barely hit 01GHz stable in previous roms: in this one I tested the 01GHz build of this new kernel 2016 and it is working fine!

If anybody has some capable hardware based on previous rom testing, please: test and report here!

Thanks

Fetch logcat via ADB interface on PC ;)
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] DerpyDerp:
This can have 2 causes:

1. The kernel is broken. I haven't tested this one. It should(!) work, but you know: Your phone needs a bit more than just "It compiled..." :D

2. The kernel works but your CPU cannot handle the clockspeed and freezes.

I'm quite sure this won't work. In both of the above cases the kernel will not handle the ADB/USB connection. Unless you have a UART console, kernel debugging is some pain in the ***.
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] On1y:
G3mod 2.5 OC (1200mhz) kernel work, but fugumod UltraOC (1266) don't work.

If you can, make kernel with a frequency up to 1200 MHz (such as in G3mod OC).

Thank you!

Yes, it's fixed. MTD version no longer has power-off state battery drain. I let the phone on about 30% :p charge when I flashed MTD yesterday, and it stayed about the same after being powered off overnight. So for me, it's fixed.

Great job! MTD ftw :p

So tried the ROM for a day.....

*The battery is back normal for me.

*The ROM is fast n cool!

*No lags. NO fc's so far!

*Can switch on bluetooth while wifi is on - as mentioned in the change log.

Overall. One word. AMAZING!

By the way, why didn't marcel apply for recognized developer (or) elite recognized developer ?? He deserves them more than many others with those titles!

Should we recommend some admins about his awesome works to give RD/ERD title ?? What do u say guys??
[Galaxy 3 Android Development] Arjav23:
i will try

but shudnt it support by default

i did mention the same when alpha 9 BML was released

i even contacted a mod for this title suggestion

He deserves more than a title

App2SD Script?

I just tried to install App2SD using Kyrillos' script, but it doesnt work. Everytime you try to install a new app, the phone reboots. When I tried to look for the sd-ext partition using "cat /proc/mounts" through adb shell, it wouldn't show my sd-ext partition, even though I distinctly remember having partitioned it, and I used the MTD kernel itself. To make the script work, I guess someone just needs to replace the mount points specified in the script with the ones you see in the MTD version, but I can't find the mount point for sd-ext.

HI Guys...

Need a bit help

I am on Kyrillos 9.7.1 with G3MOD kernel, but it's slow nowadays, So want to try this ROM...

Hope i am on right path to move to this ROM, Could you please help me Guys...???

Steps to update would be

1. First... I need to update with CM7 Kernel standard (non-oc) v2.0 or OC 1Ghz v2.0 or Ultra (OC1260Mhz)

2. then copy this zip file on SD card CM7.2.0-GT-I5800_Alpha9_MTD_CWM.zip.

3. update this zip using the recovery mode.

Query

1. If i use Kernel - OC 1Ghz v 2.0 OR the Ultra one... hope there would not be any issue with battery draining and sound file crackling sound while playing music and video files.

some asked about Data to sd...

Tried MTD version today. Fast and fine. It's amazingly fast, yeah. No unusual bugs found yet. Thanks, marcellusbe!

So... had a fine running BML version also and MTD works with the same DataToSD script I use myself (for ages now). No need to change anything on sd-ext (format or so). The apps were back immediately...

Before the first use you should boot to recovery and wipe cache (that should be enough). If it does not work on the first time, just reboot, then it should...

IMPORTANT: Make a full recovery-backup before. To be sure, backup all user-apps with Titanium before. I'm not responsible for bad things happen to your phone!

Only /data/app and /data/log are outsourced and /cache/download (for big playstore files).

To use the script you need to delete /system/etc/init.d/05mountsd and /system/etc/init.d/06mountdl !!!!

You can put it with a root explorer (TC or rootexplorer or the one from scriptmanger or or or push it via ADB...) into /system/etc/init.d/07sd
