well thats sounds like it was something you never imagined yourself doing

i think being a lawyer would be awesome

i love winning arguments(lol) especially those with meaning but i also love to build things and create so i go with engineering instead

you make very excellent advice and i appreciate it, it may help me :)

back to the subject here

i posted in the m7vzw omnirom forum about our dillemma and im waiting to here back(i put it up like 5 minutes ago lol)

but i have one last possible lead before i prepare to ditch the project...

EDIT: well that didnt help at all
[HTC Droid DNA] danjull:
Yeah, I asked around the m7 people. Got nothing. I had to walk away for a bit. Ported over mahdi rom from the nexus 4 just to make sure I still "got it" :rolleyes:
[HTC Droid DNA] danjull:
As far as omni goes, I got no errors building, but it won't go past the htc screen.

Mahdi is ok. CM based with mods. It didn't have button remapping, so I didn't run it for long. But I'll probably keep up with it.
[HTC Droid DNA] zawata:
i was told by the guy who maintains the build for m7vzw that the kernel from omni and the kernel for cm are different

yeah we dont pass the HTC screen and no logcat either

i understand completely new device new forums, Im gonna get an Xperia Z Tablet later this month :D

then ill porting roms for them(they dont have slimkat yet :D)

so i might use the caf trees because they are so device specifc
[HTC Droid DNA] zawata:
well i have ultimately concluded its a kernel issue

i flashed crpalmers latest kernel onto amit's last omnirom update which led to a kernel crash(idk why, i didnt get a log/kmesg)

im venturing on with omni, however if my suspicions are correct...then im going kernel dev(duh duh duhhhhhhhhh):eek:

i really want omni on this device...though now its more for the glory of saying "F*ck you Omni!!!"
[HTC Droid DNA] It IS Lupus:
I sincerely appreciate it. I'm running Omni on my TF300T and love it. If I had any experience in devving I would be helping.
[HTC Droid DNA] zawata:
I really only have one more idea, and that to

Sync both repos into another location and compare them and sync over what I believe will be the DNA specific parts while still preserving the omni specific parts but even then, I would say there's less of a chance of that working
[HTC Droid DNA] Stix-N-Stonz:
Anybody got a working DL link?
[HTC Droid DNA] orangechoochoo:
I've been following this since the beginning and it's been painful reading your guy's frustration with getting this ROM working. Best of luck to you guys :good:

Check ur PM.

There could be light at the end of tunnel ;)

G2 | ⓣⓐⓟⓐⓣⓐⓛⓚ | TF300T
[HTC Droid DNA] zawata:
hey, i just checked the file and that command isnt there...maybe there is some light at the end of the tunnel

ill start a build now and see how it is in about 2 hours

Lol I have to go on another build error hunt like I did a month ago, good thing I posted all the errors I was having, cuz I'm getting them all again
[HTC Droid DNA] zawata:
/home/zach/android.Omni/system/kernel/htc/m7/drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq_smartmax.c:76:1: warning: "/*" within comment [-Wcomment]
error, forbidden warning: cpufreq_smartmax.c:76

are you kidding me right now??

really?? THATS the error i get??
[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
Lol dude. Why does that even exist??
[HTC Droid DNA] Stix-N-Stonz:
:p LOL Keep at it bro
[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
Looking at the file, I'm wondering why it didn't also give you that warning at line 55
[HTC Droid DNA] crpalmer:
Just delete that governor. It's broken anyway. If you at the cm m7 kernel, there's a commit that removes it.
[HTC Droid DNA] zawata:
lol i puit the comments in becuase of the the fact that it was trying to dynamically define values based upon which phone it was using but it was defineing anything so i just removed the #ifdefn marks from around there

alright then i just felt that it wouldnt be detrimental to leave them there considering it was a difficult error to deal with

hows that new kernel coming? :)

Im about to test the build again for the first time in a month(or so ish), i have very low hopes :D

EDIT: much confusion...i may have a booting rom...but i also may not...

...
[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
So it built? What was the light at the end of the tunnel? If it doesn't boot, FYI what crpalmer posted about selinux a few pays back was what I had to do to get chameleon OS to boot.
[HTC Droid DNA] zawata:
well its always built it just never boot..but now it has :D omnirom officially boots on the DLX but its nowhere near done

the light at the end of the tunnel was the selinux stuff but in a different place

what i know now is that the kernel i built(omni's m7 kernel) wont work but@ crpalmers kernel will(not the case last i worked with it)

ive got to resync and rebuild though becuase ive found some issues so i think it will be a few days but omnirom for DNA is coming back
[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
Can you pm me what the selinux stuff was you had to change? In fairly certain that's why liquidsmooth won't boot but I retired the same thing I did with chameleon and it wouldn't work.

Also, if crpalmers kernel works, what issues did you run into with the stock kernel? I had the same problem with liquid smooth, I just did a git diff between crpalmers and the stock m7 kernel and was able figure out the necessary changes to get it to build.
[HTC Droid DNA] crpalmer:
The new kernel hasn't changed much lately. I haven't had time to look at it over the last couple of weeks (work deadline has been consuming my android time) and invisiblek has been dealing with broken functionality on other devices (which is obviously higher priority than an infrastructure change for our device, which is already working well). That said, it could be a fair while to figure out what is wrong with the display in the new kernel and then work through the smaller problems that crop up.
[HTC Droid DNA] amit_sen:
Omnirom is very tedious to get the functionality working. Its a pain in a** to get even simple things like torch to get working :(

Are you using the CM kernel to build it or new kernel ?

This is the below commit , which i asked [MENTION=5285997]zawata[/MENTION] to revert in my PM few days back. It seems to work fine (atleast rom boots) :)

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/b1fd077fc458b0a76e5952621c6339f2da75aa7a
[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
Yep, that was exactly what I had to change for chameleon. Unfortunately it didn't work on liquid, I'm just hoping it will resolve itself in time or something
[HTC Droid DNA] zawata:
yeah when i saw the boot logo i was shocked i literally dropped my keyboard on the floor, and picked up my phone and went "no f***ing way"

i used the Omni kernel to build it but now im gonna rebuild and use the CM kernel instead unfortunately i gotta fix some build errors first
[HTC Droid DNA] crpalmer:
FYI, reverting that disables selinux and is useful during device bringup but doing so in the longer term means that you haven't really hit 4.4 because Google "require" selinux now.
[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
I was looking through the cm hammerhead tree a while back and there was a commit to fix it not booting with selinux enabled, it had something to so with it not being able to initiate the graphics. Could be helpful, idk.

[MENTION=5285997]zawata[/MENTION] could you post your fixes to your build errors as you make progress? That was helpful to me when you were doing it before in this thread because I had hit some of the same errors.
[HTC Droid DNA] hyphydragon:
the download link is dead for me, tried a few times.
[HTC Droid DNA] zawata:
link it please?

how about you PM your error and ill send back the solution lol

i got like 7+ errors while building the omni kernel and one or too with the -caf trees

i dont remember all of them but i can remember if you give me the error

---------- Post added at 04:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:31 AM ----------

yeah the link is old, currently this has turned into a development thread but give me a few days i got the latest version booting, just needs a few tweaks

EDIT: doesnt boot with Cm's kernel, just a boot loop with no logcat currently building for use with SElinux

jamiethemorris...do you mean this? 2c0da9d

if so then i could merge that in but i will need the dlx equivalents of those hardware devices which i wouldn't know but maybe some kernel dev *cough cough* [MENTION=3857343]crpalmer[/MENTION] *cough* might know, got any input palmer?

also, did you get a nexus 5?

EDIT2: tried undoing selinux permissive and still leads to big heaping bowl of bootloops

EDIT3: palmers kernel leads to frozen boot animation and never booting

EDIT4: ok HUGE mindf*ck just happened

the bootanimation screen was frozen so i held down the power button to reboot and the global settings menu showed up and made the boot animation go away

but only the top two option of the menu were shown and it was in the wrong spot

after that i tapped elsewhere and it disappeared and the boot animation screen came back frozen...but i slif my finger across it and it clicked...the device clicked but not a kitkat click...idk what it was but i was a click from the speaker...i can not get i9t to to do that again

what it sounds like to me is exactly what was happening the hammerhead in the commit above...that something in selinux is not allowing any of the apps to access and update the screen
[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
Yeah that's the commit I was talking about. I'm pretty sure that's a commit from aosp. But I just remember looking at that thinking it would be helpful for a "real" solution rather than a workaround.

And yeah, if you could just pm them to me that works be great
[HTC Droid DNA] zawata:
lol i meant you pm the errors to me first becuase i dont remember all the errors i had
[HTC Droid DNA] crpalmer:
That commit is just adding selinux policy files. For our device they should be getting added in msm8960-common unless that is horrendously out of date.
[HTC Droid DNA] amit_sen:
You can try to build it with 4.7 toolchain. It seems that the default is 4.9 for liquidsmooth.

Make following changes Boardconfig.mk

TARGET_GCC_VERSION_AND := LINARO

TARGET_GCC_VERSION_ARM := LK

I build for my bro's grouper with 4.8
[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
Thanks, I think that's the problem. It looks like we're getting an official update for liquid soon and I just saw that they made that change to their dlx tree on github.
[HTC Droid DNA] zawata:
Yeah just looked at the repo for the msm8960-common under omnirom and doesn't contain the selinux directory

Maybe that's my problem

I'm pretty sure that I synced the omnibus version if that repo but maybe I didnt...I'll check when I get home
[HTC Droid DNA] Bsanborn:
Any luck on getting this built with the newest android version? I might have to try. I have omni on my tablet and love it
[HTC Droid DNA] zawata:
nope i tried my hardest but it needs a much better dev than me to make it work, although that could have just been that way about 3 months ago

if you do attempt i would be more than willing to offer my help but sadly i do not contain the hard drive space to build(though i could move somethings around 4 a moth or so if absolutely necessary)

you should definitely try it though, building android is easy, building omni is hard

EDIT:

wow im really tempted to try it now...

ill see how the night plays out for me and i might have another go at Omni, the beast that vanquished me once....

EDIT 2: lol just frankensteined a computer from a bunch of pieces i had laying around the room, not even going to post the specs because some one will laugh at me...

heres a hint: The CMOS is in danger of going out...

idk if i can even build on it, lets hope...
[HTC Droid DNA] zawata:
WEEEEEEEELLLLLL

virtual boxed 13.04 on my computer and started loading up omni(synced the whole repo in an hour and a half!!!!) and started a build process, got a simple, common easily fixed error(.resolution error in boardconfig.mk) and went to omni's wiki for help and found out that the problems that i faced last time while building are actually HUGE problems to almost everyone using the CAF trees, and they found a way to fix it

theres a possibility that the DNA may get OmniRom(a little later than expected but awesome nonetheless) lets cross our fingers and pray the great lord: OmniDroid - oversee-er-er of all things omni-related in hope that he will grant us this honor(goddamn im tired(lol its 2:30 am))
[HTC Droid DNA] zawata:
I'll just leave this here...
[HTC Droid DNA] rejectedjs:
I'll definitely be checking this out once you release it. Is this ROM mainly AOSP or based off of CM11 like everything else? =/
[HTC Droid DNA] Androide3:
I have omnirom in my old samsung captivate glide and its amazing ROM,
[HTC Droid DNA] zawata:
Well it's got the CM kernel(working on that) and device tree but everything else comes from omni

Because of how the kernel had to be changed though, you won't be able to flash any aftermarketvkernels(eg: crpalmer's kernel) without a tweak( not difficult) or else the system won't boot
[HTC Droid DNA] rejectedjs:
I don't know much about roms, but is this still mostly CAF based like other ROMs that break a lot of tweaks I've been wanting to use for a while, like stuff that only works on AOSP roms, will that be the same case with this?
[HTC Droid DNA] zawata:
If I understand what your saying?... Yes omni is more caf based than that other roms meaning AOSP tweaks for speed and precision and stuff would have to be ported over(if possible)

of course one of the only major kernel differences between cm and omni is the retire fence...

---------- Post added at 12:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:46 PM ----------

I think what I'm going to do is try and fix the omni m7 kernel to boot on our device and not release it until then because I think it would be more stable and better for the ROM that way. It would keep everything more unified and easier to maintain

I will look into it tomorrow and try to find out whats causing it to shut the screen off on boot...

Omni may be ported to the DNA but its not quite ready as I've found build errors(like omni apps not being included for some reason...) And kernel errors(really bad blue screen flashes) so its gonna take some more work
[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
What did you have to change to get the cm11 kernel to work? I can make an alternate version of my kernel for omni if need be.

I wouldn't suggest using Omni's m7 kernel as a base, last time I checked it was the same as ours except months and months behind.
[HTC Droid DNA] zawata:
this commit had to be reverted:

f2efb02

i ran into some problems with it though

1. theres no video playback of any kind...(?)

2. you cant take any video from the camera with any app, you can take photos but no video

i havent actually taken any logcats(becuase ive been so busy)

ill get cracking tonight

jamie if you have any knowledge on fixes or just want to help, youre more than welcome, i can do rom deving but kernels are a new territory for me
[HTC Droid DNA] keithwired:
Just checked and it's not working, gonna try some stuff to see if I can get it to work, I'll report back if I have any success.
[HTC Droid DNA] gillim74:
Ok let me know.
[HTC Droid DNA] keithwired:
Tried a couple of things, tried to load some different camera apks into system but it seems like it's a driver issue. Gonna need someone with programming skills to go in and find out what exactly the issue is with the motox dalvik libs and the camera but there's definitely a conflict of some kind.
[HTC Droid DNA] gillim74:
Agreed.but if i had a way to compare the libs might be able to see something
[HTC Droid DNA] keithwired:
Hopefully someone from the Omni team or someone else familiar with releasing roms can figure this out because this is an awesome rom and if it can be tweaked to work with the motox dalvik libs on top of that, this would be my daily driver in terms of 4.4 roms for the dna right now.

I just ran an AnTuTu benchmark on this rom with the motox dalvik libs and I got a 1500 point bump to my score, I'm at 21500 whereas stock 4.4 scored in at 20000
[HTC Droid DNA] coachcrey:
For anyone wondering Netflix playback is still wonky. Everything else seem fine glad to have button remapping back!!!
[HTC Droid DNA] gillim74:
I know its super fast and responsive with the libs
[HTC Droid DNA] scariestgnome:
Wait, any camera app, i.e. on the Play Store, or just the stock camera from different builds?
[HTC Droid DNA] danjull:
Can anyone get a logcat of the camera crashing?
[HTC Droid DNA] keithwired:
I tried play store cameras as well as the 4.4 aosp Google camera apk loaded into system apps with correct permissions and nothing. How do I get a logcat of the camera crashing? I mean it doesn't crash it's just black screen when you load the camera.

Thank you so much for this! Great ROM love it. Has anyone gotten DSP manager to work? Mine forced closed as soon as I opened play music. It also crashes when I skip songs.
[HTC Droid DNA] mattjacobson:
Love this ROM so far (hw key mapping was the big thing missing from KK and now it's here!)

Question though, is a superuser program not baked into this ROM? (Or did I somehow lose root/su somewhere in the process.).

If not, any recommendations for how to install it?

Thanks and keep up the awesome work! (God knows you've been releasing ROMs crazy fast!)

Edit: I totally missed the supersu link in the second post. I feel stupid, but I still really appreciate these ROMs!

backlight buttons not working

notification led on front not working (same on back)

Active Display not working when waving hand over proximity sensor

pocket mode works though.
[HTC Droid DNA] amit_sen:
It will be fixed in next build :D

I can trust you to thoroughly check AD :p

Yes, AD is not working when waving hand over prox sensor. It was working with earlier release (which iam using atm) . It seems like one of the commits is causing issue. I need to check.

As for backlights, i havent check it.

Building omni has been an xperience. Its a whole new ball game , since it doesnt pick anything from cm. So all settings, variables are different. I had to invest 2 days to figure out build issues and how to configure h/w key map into our repo since it uses variable in overlay to trigger whether 'Buttons' options need to be shown or not.

Thnks for mentioning me in your blog, rohit.

I think omnirom and pa are probably the two ROMs I'm excited about for kitkat. Omni has a forum in the custom rom central section, theres a feature request thread in there complete with a link to a list of the requests and which ones will be added to the ROM. Thanks for your hard work, amit_sen.
[HTC Droid DNA] munchy_cool:

[HTC Droid DNA] jamiethemorris:
Oh yeah that's right! It's been very exciting to watch the progress of the ROM and the efforts they are making to implement requested features.
[HTC Droid DNA] munchy_cool:
I am liking OmniROM. not working backlight buttons is an issue on the S4 as well so it looks like it's a WIP in Omni as well.
