POST

I've been working on bringing our device onto par with a build of Android 4.3. I've set up a GitHub organization just for our device and it has everything we need to build for the device. Now I've been somewhat quiet with what I've been doing lately and I really don't have time to list everything I've done. [MENTION=4939371]bradthomas127[/MENTION] and I have been communicating back and forth about building. I'd say he's done just about as much work as I've done trying to get 4.3 building. Well now, after some tips from him, I've got it building. It's using, in my opinion, the best up-to-date trees there are for our hardware. I am opening this project up to anyone that can help get it BOOTING. I don't need testers as right now I feel like I myself am the best tester for now because getting adb working on a device that sticks at a blank scree is a pain in the a**. So PLEASE I encourage anyone that knows how to maintain a GitHub and can compile and do a little coding to try to help us. The more people we can get, the faster and better we can get 4.3 actually running on our device.

Here is the GitHub:

https://github.com/Primo-Dev

If you feel you are capable of helping us dev this please PM me and I may add you to the GitHub so you can contribute.

Here is the latest build:

http://d-h.st/JSo

Logcat can be downloaded here:

http://d-h.st/SYz

Now, some basic rules for this forum:

1. DON'T ASK FOR ETA OR UPDATES - This kind of stuff is hard and takes time

2. Don't ask to test - I'll open this up for testing if we ever get it to boot

3. To all other people who aren't devs: Don't post here as this is for development only. I've made this thread in hopes of finding more devs to try to help with this, not open this up as a public ROM.

What needs attention:

I'll post bits and pieces of logcat here that shows things that need to be worked on

I/auditd ( 99): Starting up
E/auditd ( 99): Failed on audit_set_pid with error: Protocol not supported
I/auditd ( 99): Exiting
W/dalvikvm( 161): PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS failed. Is your kernel compiled correctly?: Invalid argument
[HTC One V] bradthomas127:
I did not even notice this till you posted the logcat, libgenlock is not even building. :confused:

E/libEGL ( 1327): load_driver(/system/lib/egl/libEGL_adreno200.so): dlopen failed: could not load library "libgenlock.so" needed by "libEGL_adreno200.so"; caused by library "libgenlock.so" not found
[HTC One V] robaho:
Based on the logs, you'll need a kernel that has SELinux support. That is the major failure you are having. I am not sure if there will be a way to disable it.
[HTC One V] awidawad:
That's what I've been thinking. All the devices that have been updated to cm10.2 have SELinux. Only problem is I'm not much of a kernel dev, but I can see what I can do. Also, if you take the main hardware libs from RhythmicRom and put them in cm10.2 you can get to the bootanimation.
[HTC One V] bradthomas127:
I just made a build with libgenlock.so in it, have not tried it yet.

I had to cherry pick this for SELinux support: GitHub That goes in primoc_defconfig and should take care of "audit_set_pid" & "PR_SET_NO_NEW_PRIVS" Errors.

To get libgenlock.so to build i had to bring in android_hardware_qcom_display-legacy because everything else is going ION now. display-legacy is "not" to replace qcom_display though we are already calling it in BoardConfigCommon.mk with this "TARGET_QCOM_DISPLAY_VARIANT := legacy", I used Icebox's but it is the same one we have in primo-dev <= lots of build errors though.

Edit: No boot, led blinks a couple times now. If anyone knows how to pull a logcat on 4.2+ on boot and would like to give it a try, it would be much appreciated.

[HTC One V] awidawad:
I'll logcat. I'll also post instructions on how I logcat on 4.2+.
[HTC One V] reV17:
Hey [MENTION=4416200]awidawad[/MENTION] just an FYI the Incredible S has released CM10.2 and source is on Github. I figured it might help you guys somehow.
[HTC One V] awidawad:
Hmm thanks I'll do some research on github later. It has almost the same specs so it will be useful.

BTW: To anyone waiting for logcat instructions I'm trying to find a simplest way to do it with the little time I have between work and football, and school coming up.
[HTC One V] bradthomas127:
Alright guy's i finally got it past the black screen of death but i am stuck in a bootloop, if you know how to get a logcat from a non booting ROM on 4.2+ i really need to know how or get a logcat posted on this.

[HTC One V] awidawad:
Hey man I'll post how to when I get home :)
[HTC One V] robaho:
You need to enable adb and disable secure. If you use the eng (engineering) build. Otherwise you would need the GUI up so you can allow access from the computer due to the new security constraints.
[HTC One V] MameTozhio:
Lucky CDMA people with half working 4.3 o-o
[HTC One V] bradthomas127:
I added ro.adb.secure=0 to the default.prop a couple days ago making the ramdisk/default.prop look like this now.

ro.adb.secure=0
ro.secure=0
ro.allow.mock.location=0
ro.debuggable=1
persist.sys.usb.config=adb

I've also tried moving adbkey.pub to data/misc/adb/pub_keys in TWRP but it gets erased as soon as i boot. :confused:
[HTC One V] robaho:
Is the USB driver working, that is, can you.see a USB device using your system devices view - varies by OS
[HTC One V] awidawad:
This is how I logcat on 4.3:

First off, you're going to need a WORKING android device running 4.2+

Now:

1. Plug the device into your PC

2. Go to Settings>Development and enable adb

3. When the dialogue comes up asking to trust the computer tap yes. If it doesn't appear run "adb devices" on your PC.

4. Get a root file explorer

5. In the explorer, go to \data\misc\adb and copy adb_keys to your PC. (Copy adb_keys to your Sdcard, mount phone storage, then copy to PC.)

6. Download THIS and extract all files on your PC

7. Open up the extracted directory.

8. Place adb_keys in \data\misc\adb and then run the "Run_to_build_zip.bat" file.

9. Download THIS and flash in recovery on the device you're going to logcat.

10. Copy the zip that was just created on your PC to your sdcard and flash in recovery. (Zip will be named "adb_hack_step2_**.**.**@**_**.zip" )

Reboot, adb should now be enabled and work on the PC you used.
[HTC One V] bradthomas127:
Not working for me, messed with it a couple times.:confused:
[HTC One V] awidawad:
Strange... I've used that method multiple times in ubuntu.
[HTC One V] bradthomas127:
Getting boot now, just boot loops every min.

You might need Simon's battery fix in the kernel???

Rukin added it 4 months ago.

You did just open my eyes though, i thought i commited the SELinux stuff but just noticed i didn't on this kernel, maybe why i am having reboots and SD card is not mounting (reason for no screen shot). Thanks :good:
[HTC Amaze 4G] masondoctorjt:
I searched, and could not find anything. If I restart my phone from the power menu, it mounts the sd card, but if I power it off, then turn it back on, I have to go into settings and mount the card manually. Any idea why? I am on the factory stock ics Rom rooted with s-off, and stock kernel.
[HTC Amaze 4G] sam@xda29:
Sometimes it happens due to loose contact of SDcard but if your problem is not that it means that it should be software issue...

And for that you can flash other Rom

( it is little weird to stay on stock Rom , try switch other which have good battery life and functions ) like viper amaze, supersense and energy also...

:D:D

If problem.remains then try to flash t-Mobile RUU and it will solve your problem for sure.

Hit thanks if I helped you :p

[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Johnny673:
Hey guys,

After trying for the past two days and a lot of hours to get a good enough grasp to undo a hasty attempt at rooting my kindle, I've decided to come to you with a request for help!

It all started when I installed the amazon usb drivers for kindle fire and then loaded up KFU. It read that my kindle was in boot mode 4000 (normal boot mode) and I told it to root my device. It seemed to be working fine, until all the sudden, it froze as it was trying to load TWRP onto my kindle. AFter waiting some amount of time, I finally just cancelled the job and tried to reset my kindle.

Ever since my kindle is stuck at the stock loading screen. No FFF, just the regular kindle fire logo and it never dims in light, which is a clear indication that it is in fastboot, and isn't going anywhere. Well at that point, my windows drivers failed me and ceased to recognize my kindle. Well, I tried everything to get windows to recognize the device but it failed. I even tried creating a bootable ubuntu partition and using the linux drivers with firekit. It didn't really work as well as I'd have liked.

Recently, I used my roommate's macbook and fastboot to try and see if there was any hope for communicating with my kindle.

The "./fastboot -i 0x1949 getvar products" command returned "product:kindle" suggesting that the macbook recognized my kindle.

YAYY!

but when i tried to reset the bootmode to 4000, it just sat there with three dots and did nothing. i tried to flash TWRP again, same thing. Each time i would cancel the job and then when i went back to try and recognize my kindle, even the macbook had lost it.

Ideas?

Yes.

Also setting window transitions to 0.5 in developer options will make your stock launcher much Snappier.

You'll want to install setcpu with any kernel you flash to allow governor and scheduler choice. There are also free options available, so do some research on that subject and you'll be good to go.

How do I resolve this, I can't even answer phone calls at the moment - it's driving me nuts.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] dandrumheller:
Hey guys,

I've been getting a little bored with all the bright colors lately, so I went on a hunt for CM theme chooser themes based on earth tones, preferably in olive green, or reddish-brown type colors. My search has brought me basically nowhere. I'd prefer free themes, but I have no objection to paying for well done ones.

Anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks!

[AT&T LG Optimus G] dandrumheller:
Yeah, it's my normal go to place for themes. I've checked all the ones that seem to have a name that might be promising for what I'm looking for, and a bunch of others as well. To be fair, I have not opened every single link though. Unfortunately, the few that are done in the colors I'm interested in are very much not to my taste. Maybe I'm just too picky about what I want :)

It's making me want to try building my own themes, but I don't know how to find the time right now. I was hoping someone might point me towards one that might not have checked yet...

I have been able to get CyanogenMod File Explorer working on stock but it will not allow for root access... I've put the file in system/app and set permissions RW-R--R-- and still no luck. Anyone succeed with this?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Themes and Apps] zeppelin101:
This may not be the answer you're looking for, but why do you need to get the CM File Explorer working? There are many excellent alternatives.

[Nexus 7 (2013) Themes and Apps] zeppelin101:
Ok, well good look in getting it to work, but do consider that a file explorer is just a tool and not one that you want to spend a lot of time in, anyway. For me, moving files around on my Android through the Windows file explorer or ADB is what I focus on. At most, I will use the ES File Explorer to launch a file or delete it.

Nice review.

I would add the case works fine with a "film" screen protector. Touch response is still great. However, I would spend plenty of time getting it spotless (fingerprint and smudge free) before putting it in the case because it will show if you do not.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Mr. bird:
Good review. But I wouldn't say a glass protector fits all that well. It does but the case is hard to close, the seems at the ends don't sit flush and feels as if it may pop open from the pressure. I ripped my iloome glass off, watching it crack as I did. I wish they made this case with a glass protector.

Ease of removal?

I currently run with the Otterbox reflex which offers pretty poor protection (LCD somehow cracked in my pocket WITH reflex case on), but I use the case because I have to switch out batteries frequently. How much of a pain is it to do with this case, and like the Defender case does repeated removal cause the case to become loose (due to the rubber stretching). Thank you.
