[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] creepyncrawly:
My (limited) understanding of this issue is that it can be coded into the firmware. Evidently, CyanogenMod at some point in time did have a setting to force 2g on the I777. But this is dependent on the developer of the rom having an interest in doing this specific modification. Now-a-days there are not too many developers actively working on firmware for the I777. Most of them have moved on to newer phones. So if it isn't already there, I doubt you'll get it.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chevycam94:
Ok, I was ok with the far-less-than-par speeds when pushing files to the phone from the computer connected via USB (2.0 in my computer). When it reached an all new low, this is what you get:

Mind you, the file I pushed is 1.8MB!!!!!!

$ adb push Dorimanx_2.0.zip /sdcard/ROMS/
3 KB/s (1778643 bytes in 435.309s)

Its not my laptop, I know that for a fact, as I can connect my Galaxy Nexus the same way, and push the same size file, in less than half a second, and I can repeat that over and over again, any time I want.

Anybody else have any insight as to WHY its so damn slow to do ANYTHING on the G2?

Im running stock VS98012B, rooted, debloated, Xposed framework (with 3 running modules), and nothing else special done to the system.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Payton95:

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wwewwf96:
Same problem here, mate. Very slow and also the transfer often freezes. Most of the time when I want to transfer a file I must disconnect and then reconnect the phone for the transfer to start. Really annoying... I have this problem on both stock and AOSP roms...

Contemplating buying one in black, can get it really cheap as well, previous phone was a nexus 4 now i've got a moto g.. I've always liked the look of the htc and the speakers etc really attract me.

If battery is as good as moto g and lasts a good day with a lot of use I think I might go for it..

While the One had many stellar features, battery life is not one of them. It doesn't suck but it's not great either. Decidedly average battery life.

Alpine state of art

So today we have:

1) a kernel "zalp" that doesn't boot (http://jornada820.sf.net/files/uni)

2) a lot of tests by haret (in "xanadux: linux for xda" topic)

the last of them said that Alpine, maybe, hasn't an ASIC3 chip

3) we need an Alpine motherboard picture (can anyone help ?)

And we wait for instructions/corrections to make kernel boot asap.

Thanks for every contributions. Bye

[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] renatostore:
I tried to boot kernel zuni-20060421 in this way:

1- download from http://jornada820.sf.net/files/uni some files (zuni-20060421, rd, startup.txt, gnuharet)

2- I changed startup.txt in this way

set KERNEL "zuni-20060421"

3- I upload all these files in pda storage card

4- I started gnuharet from pda

5- I changed default.txt with startup.txt and pushed run

Results:

only a black box in the middle of the screen within an horizontal line that changed color from blue to red. That's it.

After a soft reset to unlock the pda I had to reinstall OS (like hard reset).

Any suggestions?
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] renatostore:

zalp-2.6.16-hh2

at the same location. Test it and let me know about the

[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] renatostore:
I need to know if my startup.txt file is correct:

set KERNEL "zalp-2.6.16-hh2"
set MTYPE 855
set INITRD "Storage Card\rd"
set CMDLINE "root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc ramdisk_size=14336 keepinitrd console=tty0 mem=63M"
boot2

the first line is for kernel name

the second ??

the third is the location of the ramdisk image

the forth looks like parameters for kernel

the fifth ??

Could anyone explain it to me ?

Thanks
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] cr2:
Yes. It is called 'zImage' because it is the compressed

kernel combined with the decompressor.

MachineTYPE:

himalaya -> 448
blueangel -> 766
universal -> 855
magician -> 875
apache -> 959
alpine -> 999
beetles -> 1003

Newer haret versions autodetect the MTYPE

and set it to the correct value regardless of what you

have provided (or not provided).

If you want to override this autodetected value

(usually for testing, if you know what you are doing),

use FORCEMTYPE

Yes. If you need the ramdisk. You don't need it if your

Linux system is already on the MMC/SD card and you boot from the MMC/SD card.

Yes. There are usually two combinations:

one for the ramdisk, another for the MMC/SD card.

Boot linux command.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] renatostore:
According to you, which should be the correct startup.txt file for a linux first booting ?

Could you type a sample ? Thanks
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] renatostore:
This is my experince running the new kernel with this startup.txt file:

set KERNEL "zalp-2.6.16-hh2"
set MTYPE 999
set INITRD "Storage Card\rd"
set CMDLINE "root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc ramdisk_size=14336 keepinitrd console=tty0 mem=63M"
boot2

A black square in the bottom of the screen with a blue horizontal line in the mids becaming red. Then appear an output from gnuharet saying:

detected cpu family: PXA2xx
boot MTYPE=999
RAM: 0X08000000@

and the xda started vibrating. I stoped it by a soft reset and, this time, no reinstall of OS was needed.

It says nothing to me ...
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] cr2:
Vibrating is a good sign, but you need to know how

to switch it off.

Please, replace the kernel parameter string by

set CMDLINE "root=/dev/mmc/blk0/part2 console=tty0 mem=63M"

and try again.

It will probably crash, but i'd like to know if you will see

the penguin and kernel boot messages on the LCD.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] renatostore:
Same result :(
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] renatostore:
After the usual black box with blue/red lines I saw a penguin sliding fastly form the top to the bottom of my display. I used this startup.txt file:

set KERNEL "zalp-2.6.16-hh2"
set MTYPE 999
set CMDLINE "root=/dev/mmc/blk0/part2 console=tty0 mem=63M"
boot2

then xda started vibrating and I had to hard reset to stop it.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] cr2:
Ok. penguin was sliding ? or the text ?

Can you see the text ?

Vibrating is not a problem, i can switch it off.

If you see the text on the screen, try to partiton your SD

card like it is described in the Universal wiki, and

install the opie image from universal.

Then boot again.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] GreenRabbit:
In order now it does not work on Gpe:

- audio;

- battery;

- System info is not opened;

- it does not manage the extinction/standby of the device;

- Bluetooth and wireless not work
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] Muaddib7:
GreenRabbit, is it possible for you to post a small guide (10 lines would be sufficient) which explain with enough details how did you manage to get it to work :

*which kernel (2.6.19-hh from hh.org ?)

*compiled with which compiler (gcc 4.1.1-eabi ? or gcc-3.4.5-gnuabi ?)

*works with which distribution (Angstrom bootstrap ? Angstrom OPIE ? Angstrom GPE ? GreenRabbit www.sharebigfile.com's images ?)

Because I've cross compiled a fresh 2.6.19-hh cvs checkout with gcc 4.1.1-eabi under ubuntu-amd64 and while the kernel boot on the Alpine, it hangs miserably with the same error message as you used to have (Killing init) on any of the aforementionned distributions.

Thanks a lot for the good work GreenRabbit !

Cheers, mate !
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] GreenRabbit:
Sorry I forgot to say you that the error of the kernel has had to the mistaken distribution or the wrong one format under ubuntu, you follow my guide and would have to leave to you, if it goes to you you could explain as you have made me to compile the kernel, where I can even find your same sources and if you can put rows of configuration valid for the alpine ones so as to not to have to modify the kernel too much

thank you :)
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] cr2:
You should remove all the kernel modules for universal.

Alpine does not have asic3.

Alpine uses UDA1380, it's a different chipset from used on universal.

UDA1380 is used on magician.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] Muaddib7:
OK, I've enabled the "SoC Audio for Intel PXA 2xx chip" + "SoC driver for UDA1380 codec"

And for the acx chipset, I try enabling "TI acx100/acx111

I removed every reference to the asic3 in the kernel config.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] Muaddib7:
Neither of these two kernel options yielded any result. Perhaps should I compile these options as modules.

There are kernel options refering to "HTC Magician Audio" and HTC i2C bus. Is that relevant ?

I will try harder tomorrow

PS : By the way, enabling the "preemptive kernel" option give the PDA an incrediblely smooth feeling.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] renatostore:
This is a little guide to cross-compile kernel on Alpine

1- make a directory called /home/xxx/xanadux

where xxx is your user name

go to /xanux

2- download kernel source:

cvs -d:pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.handhelds.org:/cvs login

the password is "anoncvs"

cvs -d:pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.handhelds.org:/cvs co linux/kernel26

3- download the cross-compiler from:

http://www.codesourcery.com/gnu_toolchains/arm/download.html

obviusly the target system is "ARM EABI" and the host platform is linux.

4- uncompress the cross-compiler in /home/xanadux/usr/local

5- set the variable:

export PATH=$PATH:/home/XXX/xanadux/usr/local/arm-X/bin

where arm-X should be arm-2006q3

6- go to /home/XXX/xanadux/linux/kernel26 and compile the kernel:

make htcalpine_defconfig
make

if you find some errors like "can't find arm-linux-gcc" you need to substitute in kernel26/makefile by gedit "arm-linux-" with "arm-none-eabi-"

7- when it will finish you find the new kernel (zimage) into /kernel26/arm/boot

and you have to copy it in the dos partition of sd card

8- now you have to install in the ext2 partition of sd card the compiled modules (to do this you must be root)

INSTALL_MOD_PATH=/media/usbdisk make modules_install

where /media/usbdisk is my mount point for ext2 partition of sd card

the end

-how to download kernel source

Can you help me or show me clearly.Thanks.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] renatostore:
You have to create a directory by mkdir command:

mkdir /home/xxx/xanadux

To download the kernel source from cvs server use the commands I posted:

cvs -d:pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.handhelds.org:/cvs login

and when ask for a password type "anoncvs"

then go to /home/xxx/xanadux/ and give the command:

cvs -d:pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.handhelds.org:/cvs co linux/kernel26

Gr8 going ....

Hi all,

I would like to jointhe bandwagon too participating with the testing and development. I ran through all the posts and plan to setup a build env first to begin with. Looking at Knoppix since I donot have a Linux system setup. To summarize, I would have to

Create 2 partitions on my SD card, FAT32 (30KB) and 256MB ext2 (or ext3?). I have a 1 GB card. (Can I still retain the Windows file system, NTFS ?).

Copy the cross compiled 'zimage' to FAT32 partition

Install the modules onto the ext3 partition

Hmmm so how would I then start off Linux on the XDA ?

start Haret ? (http://jornada820.sourceforge.net/files/haret/).

I am a bit confused to start with should be fine with a lil help.

thanks everyone (cr2, renatostore, GreenRabbit, abompard) for all the good work... hope to have a fully functional Linux on Alpine soon.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] renatostore:
I use Linux on my desktop. You can't access ext2 partition on SD card by windows.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] renatostore:
First you have to setup a Linux PC (knoppix is ok)

Then, using a SD card reader, prepare the SD card with 2 partitions (dos, ext2) as it is explained in the Threads. If you simply want to try Linux on Alpine you only need to prepare partitions and copy on them the files needed (you don't have to compile anyting).

Then start Linux on Alpine using Haret in dos partition of SD card.

That's it.
[PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i Software Upgrading] prashu_ps:
Hmmmmm Yup, to begin with I would like to try Linux on Alpine. When you say images, which images are you referring to ? do share any URLs you might have.

The very motivation to join you guys comes from the hanging WinCE I have on my XDA that doesnot even let me debug why it hangs in the first place. I also have a few ideas that I would like to try and I see two ways, join Microsoft or join open source. The first option could just help me and is limited but the second I am sure will help one and all to whatever little extent it may. So I am here for contributing to the wonderful development you guys are doing (and learn a lot too) :-).
