U-Boot Source Code request

This is my request to Acer for the U-Boot source:

Dear Sir/Madam,

thank you for your reply. Software licensed under the GPL2 can be reused and modified and sold with the restriction of handing out the source and build instructions for the sold product.

In case of the Acer Liquid Z130, Acer has aquired and modified the following Software:

Linux Kernel, the Android OS, the U-boot bootloader, of which the linux kernel and U-boot is licensed under the GPL2, meaning that acer is obliged to hand out the source code of its modified U-boot and the modified kernel plus the build instructions. Since Acer only handed out the instructions and source of the modified linux kernel on its webpage, it hasn't yet met its obligations.

Since Android uses a different licence, you can refuse to hand out part of its code but you can gain popularity in the opensource community by doing so.

Yours sincerely

Denis Wentland

The request dates from 3th of July. How much time to give them and how to proceed in case they don't follow?

U-boot

While investigating usb-traffic, I encountered some CDC-ACM messages on the powered off, battery removed, usb-connected device . For 1 second the device opens its USB serial port and spams some READYREADYREADY messages . Then it closes it for some 8 seconds again.

On factory mode it asks for the input password on the /dev/ttyACM0 port.

I hope I can find out the password and enter U-Boot command prompt.

Since U-boot is under GPL Acer should hand out the source for me to find out the pasword.

hexdumping the boot loader firmware it has some uboot-messages:

I have a french Acer Z3 Single SIM and as many on XDA i am a kind of flasholic.

I found a file .ZIP opened it and found boot.zip, system.img, recovery.zip that I I flashed from ADB\Fastbboot.

Was able to boot the phone but it’s from dual SIM update Thaï operator.

This one : Update_Acer_AV052_Z130_1.005.00_AAP_AISH https://www.dropbox.com/s/5s07i8g1hq3ekga/Z130SingleSIM_Tha%C3%AFSTOCK_ROM.zip

I don’t get any network signal from it. If it can help…maybe?

WARNING: if some of you decide to dowload this, please do not install it on your phone, because you will not be able to install another System.zip. Or unless you want an asian DUO SIM THAÏ Operator ok! :good:

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] planetf1:
Due to frustrations with Samsung bloated roms, and loving 4.4.2 on my tablet running omnirom I'm seriously considering moving to a Google edition variant, or perhaps aosp customized on my i9505 s4

This means losing the decent Samsung camera app.

How are the 4.4 ROMs. Do any combination of apps come close. Fast? Reliable? 30fps? Other special features? Focus? Sharpness? Low light?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
It'll use the same AOSP camera app. The GE will be better as it's utilised by Samsung so probably a minimal quality lost compared to AOSP roms. You'll lose all the feature from the TW app no burst mode, and any other mode that comes with the TW edition. I suggest if you have the i9505 to first try the GE 4.4.2 rom then judge from there on.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeJolly:
So latest AOKP nightly is broken and I didn't have a backup. Yea......

SO... when flashing factory images with fastboot, can I just flash system.img and data.img and the device will boot, or do I need to flash every file (cache.img, userdata.img, recovery.img, radio.img)? I don't want to lose my files in internal SD card :/
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
System.img and boot.img

However if you were on aokp before the update, you'll probably need to factory reset before it boots.

Did you try a factory reset anyway? Maybe this nightly needs one? Or can't you just flash the previous rom you were on?

Not enough info here to help

Yeah the only thing we really would have needed was the state before you flashed the nightly because from aokp to stock requires wipe and vice versa so any help we give would need to be based on facts.

hi i just sorted out how to use an mp3 as a ring tone with out a patch is there any way i can use an mp3/wav file as a ring tone for an sms ?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] X3MLeg:
sms tones

Hi there.

Actually, there is a way to use wav files for sms tones.

Put your desired wav file in the \windows folder.

Go to Notifications, messaging:new text message and voila! use your wav file as your SMS tone.

:wink:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] EelcoV:
Not with MP3, that is not possible!
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] jonothetigger:
well i lied a bit lol ! an mp3 converted to a wav file almost an mp3 !!! tried the above still cant get it to add it to the standard ring tones ie the alarm1 alarm 2 and so on !

ive only had phone for a month so please in very easy english lol :shock:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] jonothetigger:
how do i get an wav file in to this bit of the phone ???

from the active>settings>sounds&notifications>notifications

1 select an event

change that to inbox:new sms message

2 select how to be notified

tick box play sound then in the sound box all i can get is

alarm 1 , 2, 3, 4, default ,hwandsw ,infbeg ,infend ,loudest ,lowbatt ,menupop msgbox ,notify ,online ,quietest ,recend ,type ,voicbeep

pleas ecould some one tell me how to get a wav file in there with out a patch would be lovley !

i have tryed every thing that i can think off !

:evil: :evil:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] sidd:
Sms more rings how solution.

Copy a wav file in the windows directory (in your PDA),, now go to Sound & Notification and see if you got that file under "TEXT MESSAGE" in the list. :? :lol: :?

Introduction:

Hi everyone,

Here I am going to share with you my newly developed Xposed module, MinMinGuard. It can completely remove both the ads inside apps

and the empty space caused by those ads

. Conventional ads removing apps are only able to block the ad content, but the space taken by the ad will still remain unused (black). MinMinGuard successfully removes that black space, which extends the app window and makes your user-experience better.

You can find more information here.

FAQ:

Q: Why there is still ads in a few apps?

A: Some apps use differnt Ad Networks' SDK (Mostly some local ads providers ex: Vpon in Taiwan) that is not currently supported by MinMinGuard. If you encounter this situation, you can open a new issue on Github to let me know and I will try to fix it. The issue should contains at least "appname", "download link" and "which page in the app show the ads". If you don't know how to use Github, you can alternatively fill in this form and I will create the issue for you.

Q: Why ads in websites is still showing?

A: MinMinGuard currently only blocks the "in-app" ads. Blocking ads in websites may be the future work.

Q: Can I use MinMinGuard along with Adaway?(or any other adblocker)

A: Yes, they should work perfectly with each other.

This app works fine for me right up until I pushed it up past 750 apps. It pauses for about 20 seconds then closes out. If I bring the app count back down lower minmin works again.

Not sure if all 750 are being listed, has anyone else tried with this many ?
[Xposed Framework Modules] valk791:
FatMinMin you should implement the option that allows to add the new apps automatically to the list. It will be very easy!
[Xposed Framework Modules] Pons:
Good to see another open source app out there. I'll have to take a look at the code later to see what i can help with.

Also, just started using this on Spades (the only app I use that had ads in it I can think off off the top of my head), and the black bar from AdAway is still there. If you need it, I can get you screen shots and more information on their ad handler.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bytesequencing.spades_ads

But great work so far.

Edit: just looked at the About portion of the app, and it says 1.1.3. Verified Xposed and Manage App both say 1.2.0. Then glanced at your GitHub. Instead of having your version scattered across I don't know how many strings and translations, why not just have your version be a variable in one spot, change all the parts where you have your version as a number to the variable, then you just have to update that one variable in the future. Much simpler. I can maybe do it for you and submit a pull request this weekend if you want (I say maybe because the wife hasn't told me of our schedule this weekend yet).

[Xposed Framework Modules] Pons:
Thanks for doing the version string. You got to it before I could.

Alright, quick little (my recommendation of) a to-do list:

Since it's open source, I'd add some form of a license. I would've sent you a pull request, but it's your module, and I don't want to feel like I'm even remotely dictating your license.

Add a README with short description (like the one in the OP) of project.

Add an AndroidProducts.mk and Application.mk

Update README to have a compile guide.

Again, this is my suggestion, and is actually in the order I'd complete it.

You can see last version release note in Xposed repo. He wrote:

Add Pie support with Ed Xposed. Please use reboot instead of soft reboot if bootloop occurs

Actually EdXposed is completely open source.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Portgas D. Ace:
This has nothing to do with M66B actively contributing to Edxposed, he basically only wrote that Edxposed is a good alternative to regular Xposed. Active contributing would mean he is adding code by himself to the official Edxposed, which isn't the case.
[Xposed Framework Modules] arianat01:
I don't know about that. He told EdXposed is open source and I trust to him. He updated XprivacyLua to use on EdXposed. XprivacyLua even works correctly without last update on EdXposed, So I think he didn't need to contributing to EdXposed.
