OK coo. I was like I really wanted to contribute cause I'm benefiting from this too.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] morepr:
I would like to contribute but I dont have a PayPal account I being banded from PayPal :(

Can I mail a visa prepay card ?
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
Um... I don't think you have to have PayPal to donate... Check the bottom left corner on donate page...;)
[Galaxy S III Mini General] wilbigdaddy2000:
OK guys, where do we stand?
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
OK, So as Unjustified Dev said we have enough to get one device. I have run into a little bit of a snag though. As you all know it's $50 dollars @ the metroPCS website but metroPCS does not serve my area and my state is not even listed ( so I can't choose it ) when filling out the shipping info. :(

Unjustified Dev suggested that I ship it to him but when I put in his address it says that it can not verify the address.... (maybe thats temporary?)

I've emailed a friend in KY to see if she would be willing to order the device and then ship it to me when she gets it...

If any of you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them...;)
[Galaxy S III Mini General] jc33777:
I would be more then happy to help if you want
[Galaxy S III Mini General] wilbigdaddy2000:
Same thing happened to me. Metro is right down the street from me. Don't understand that one. Trying to call.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
Basically, what I need is for someone to order the device and ship it to me once the get it...:highfive:

They need to have paypal ( so I can get them the money )

Need to be in the metroPCS service area ( those of you who already have the device should be )

I would prefer if it was someone who has donated

If that's you, PM me...:highfive:
[Galaxy S III Mini General] jc33777:
If no one else is able to help I will I live in fl and have the phone through metro I know I can get it here I'm just wondering though how will you be able to test everything with no service on it
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
Oh, that's easy, were just going to unlock it;)
[Galaxy S III Mini General] jc33777:
Ok so a different network provider so if your going to do that tmobile sells the same phone you might be able to buy it from them just an idea
[Galaxy S III Mini General] wilbigdaddy2000:
I called and they told me that the system is upgrading so to give it 48 hrs. I'm willing to do it if by Wednesday no one is able. I want this as expeditious as possible. I'm ready for cm10.2. Lmao.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] bibbitbogie:
BrandsMart is also selling the SGH-t599n for $50 in-store (just another idea).
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
Thanks for all the suggestions guys...

I think I will wait till Wednesday... I guess I just go anxious to get started...:good:

[MENTION=5354456]Exothermic[/MENTION] I will update my source. I am flashing your build to debug
[Galaxy S III Mini General] HJC73734:
Wouldn't it be easier if you someone just goes to a MetroPCS store or booth and buy the phone?

If you're having shipping problems, I can buy it at the Metro booth in the mall. I'll send it over Priority Mail.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] wilbigdaddy2000:
Well, when I spoke to customer service, she said it was a web discount.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] HJC73734:
I've seen it at the booth at the mall. It says $29 after rebate just like the web site.

By the way, how's the second phone coming along? How close are we?
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
Update

I was able to get the website to verify Unjustified Dev's address. I had to transfer money from paypal to bank. Transfer will be done tomorrow so I'll be able to place the order then.:victory:

Donation Stat's:

Total Donated: $66

Total after fee's: $61.67

Total cost of device: 53.xx (can't remember the exact amount. shipping is free but there is tax)

So we have like $7 towards the second device...:(
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
If only I wasn't a broke university student lol, donated about $30 for first device. If I could come up with more, I'll surely donate, the more devs the better.

Oh and unjust I'm running into building errors and I only added abyssplug, but the building errors are Bluetooth related, are you having those issues? I'm not sure if cm screwed up Bluetooth or if I'm having bad syncs again.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
I didn't realize that paypal was going to take a big bite out of the donations!

If you have time, can you pastebin your build errors so I can take a look?

Thanks you for your donation BTW!
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :

You're welcome and thanks for joining the development on our device!
[Galaxy S III Mini General] 16BitRun:
That is great to hear! I wish I could donate too but I don't even have a dollar right now and looking for work. As soon as I come up with some money I'll figure out a way to contribute. Thanks to all for their efforts and I welcome the two new Devs!
[Galaxy S III Mini General] HJC73734:
I think these Metro PCS deals are monthly. Sadly I doubt we'll be able to get that second phone this time around.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] romimpaired:
I will keep my eyes peeled on eBay. There is always a good deal to be found for a new/used with good esn. Tax return is coming.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
NOOOOO!

I just checked the metro pcs website and they are out of stock!!!

[Galaxy S III Mini General] wilbigdaddy2000:
Wish I had more too. I should be able to do something next week.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] TechnoDaft:
right now metroPCS stores have em for $30
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
Damn someone should buy 2 right now and get meticulus to send money over PayPal?

Samsung Open Source Code for the T-599

Samsung has a portal where open source code for the T-599 has been posted. Not sure if there is anything here to help, but I wanted to pass on the news. (I became aware of this after reading a post in the T-399 discussion.)

The URL is opensource dot samsung dot com (Sorry, XDA will not let me post direct links until after my 10th post.)

Search for T599 and links to the opensource.zip will appear.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] romimpaired:
Nice...i'm sure that will come in handy. Would be nice to see it updated to 4.3 or 4.4 for the stock rom.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
That's just the kernel, it's mandated by GPL to release kernel. There isn't any source files there that'd help (like how the STE sources got relased for primarily sony devices. It's already being used to build CM10.2 but thank you nevertheless.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] wilbigdaddy2000:
So does this mean you guys have everything u need to continue?
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
It will probably be a little while before I get my bearings on a new device. I'm working to try and get caught up right now... It's hard to say if we've got all the source that we need and there is a lot to sort out....:)

I'm studying source while I wait for the phone to arrive...:eek:
[Galaxy S III Mini General] wilbigdaddy2000:
Lmao. Like the blinking eyes on the smilie. OK, I feel that. If there is anything I can do to help out just let me know.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
I don't think so, if someone we were to get our hands on STE source code than yes, but otherwise we would have to write them ourselves, I know some java, little C++ but I don't think I know enough to take on the task of contributing, but I'm sure there must be something salvageable from Maclaw's leaked omx patches, as well as the STE source code that was leaked. But I think there's still a long way to go before a fully bug-free build. But take what I say with a grain of salt, I'm extremely new to this, and still have a lot to learn.

Just out of curiosity, how long till the phone arrives? It's great to know there's more devs on this phone + from my understanding STE is just awful to work. My next phone would probably be a sony or a nexus device, lol. I also posted a paste-bin of the build errors I was running into a couple posts back, any clue as to what it means?
[Galaxy S III Mini General] wilbigdaddy2000:
Don't know if this helps: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2625365

This is about STE source code.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
That is the code I'm looking at.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] wilbigdaddy2000:
OK, and I'm also trying to reach the guy in China to see if he can send me what he has.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
Unjustifed Dev should have the phone Monday but then he has to ship it to me so...

Sorry man, I got side tracked but I did take a look at it.

I think ( not sure so keep a copy ) that this file is generated by the build. I couldn't find it in the source. Try removing it and rerunning the build. Hopefully it will generate a new one without the errors.

If that doesn't work, the error says there is something wrong with the name of a macro at line 7 char 9. /home/exothermic/Source/out/target/product/codinaxxx/obj/SHARED_LIBRARIES/libbt-vendor_intermediates/vnd_buildcfg.h I need to see that file.

EDIT: Pretty sure it's generated at compile time - https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_hardware_broadcom_libbt/blob/cm-10.2/vnd_buildcfg.mk#L16

EDIT2: Here is one from my BeanStalk 4.4 build on venturi for rough comparison... ;)
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :

Found out was wrong, stupid me put a dash before one of the lines in in btvendor_codinaxxx.txt :eek: thanks for the help! Can't believe it was something so trivial.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
Sorry it took so long for me to respond :o
[Galaxy S III Mini General] wilbigdaddy2000:
OK, so soon as I here back from him I will let it be known. Thanks a bunch.:D
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Unjustified Dev:
Waiting on the phone to arrive Monday I will ship it to Meticulus unlocked hopefully and rooted with cwm installed. There's lots of useful things in the source actually won't discuss it on xda though
[Galaxy S III Mini General] jc33777:
I'm just curious why the secrecy. Is it really a bad thing if someone knows what your building or even has the source....it seems like the same attitude as Maclaw...js
[Galaxy S III Mini General] chainssd:
So, not asking for an ETA or anything, just wondering are you guys going to do bug fixing on the current rom or are you building 4.4? if you're building 4.4 is it AOSP or Cyanogenmod? I saw all the "bringup 4.4" changes on github but I figured I'd ask.

This is why no one knows if it's legal or illegal. I am not closed source I just don't want to get in trouble I haven't pushed anything because I have been busy with school and I also promised another device some work
[Galaxy S III Mini General] wilbigdaddy2000:
OK, melancholy got back with me with the files. Was wondering what it was u needed and how u wanted them sent.

Lemmie know if this helps. http://pan.baidu.com/s/1c0lBfGk
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
This is the source that everyone has but it's good to have another mirror:good:

Please give him our profound thanks!!!:angel:

Notes about the source:

The kernel included is a 3.4.0 kernel.

I believe everything is include to build aosp 4.1 ( I even saw bootloader code, but I don't think its for our phone)

I am assuming that all of the blob source was written for the 3.4.0 kernel (Since we are on 3.0.101, we are experiencing minor problems when building them). Particularly when they call on kernel header that are not present in 3.0.101 but are present in 3.4.0.

I think if we are going to use any of this source ( going forward ) then should try to switch to the 3.4.0 kernel. ( If we can)

The way they structure their build is much different than I've seen. Normally there is a device tree in $source/device, kernel in $source/kernel, and then vendor blobs in $source/vendor. They have the device tree (and much more) in $source/vendor.

I believe (might be tougher than I think) that I can build the source "as is". What I don't know is: How much of the finished product will apply to our device?

To answer that question:

I am syncing AOSP 4.1.2 to build the source "as is" and I'm going to pick the result apart and test each piece individually provided that the new 3.4 kernel works... If not then, I'll try to see about getting it working or try the build with our 3.0 kernel...

[MENTION=4911249]Unjustified Dev[/MENTION] [MENTION=5354456]Exothermic[/MENTION] What do you think?
[Galaxy S III Mini General] wilbigdaddy2000:
OK. Lemmie know what u come up with and I'll see what he has as far as the missing sources and builds for 4.0+.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Unjustified Dev:
Blobs weren't kernel specific as all of us got 3.0.31 kernels the 3.4 kernel was added but it's the same one from igloo

https://github.com/igloocommunity/igloo-kernel/tree/stable-android-ux500-3.4

This kernel is not specific to sony or to samsung so ... lots of work will need to be done for either of us to use it. I tried one time but gave up due to lack of help
[Galaxy S III Mini General] :
Gotcha.. You were trying to tell me that before... I'll do the build with the 3.0.101 then. Do some testing....:D
[Galaxy S III Mini General] wilbigdaddy2000:
So now that you have some help will u be able to use this or should I see if he has something more specific?
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Unjustified Dev:
We already have that source. All ste devs were informed about it. 3.4 kernel would be great but it's not required yet. I think randomblame the developer who hasn't got his phone yet will do it. We still need some more money to be able to get him a phone.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] 10114jose:
How are you going to unlock? I'm interested in unlocking mine.
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Unjustified Dev:
I have a friend that can give me a code to unlock it. He's on xda his name is sandnap you can pm him if you want.

Does this ROM support NFC?
[Galaxy S III Mini General] Unjustified Dev:
if you look at the top of the thread it's for galaxy exhibit . Only variant of s3 mini support nfc. now if you ask why is this device in here it's because it's similar to s3 mini . We use all their source code except kernel and small device changes to keep device specific name.

[Galaxy S III Mini General] Fat Cookies:
I apologise, I thought it was very similar, but was unaware if it was based from the NFC version of the S3 Mini.

Use this for your pc . Linux allows blocked tethering native. On windows programs respond what type of internet is being used and the servers read the data and can block or redirect you to their page that wants you to pay. They also have a mobile app.

I think i am going to buy my son and my wife one as well. Needless to say i think its awesome that this phone is finally going to get some Dev attention. Maybe now we can get our own forum on here. I also want to donate for the new phone for the other dev but i need to know the details mentioned in the post above this one.
