Hi,

I was working since a while on this :

android_kernel_mt6589

For releases (beta builds - maybe unstable/not working), see here

I'm trying to support other devices too. Please send me your mt6589 device name and his kernel source (stock source !!)

Actual features :

Built commit history (patches cherry-pick from AOSP inside mtk kernel)

Mtk generate&build scripts moved into kernel directory

Merging meditatek sources (some devices will benefit from others kernel changes)

Removed a lot of unusued debug

Cortex A7 Optimizations + NeonV2 + FPV4

Built with sabermod (4.8.3) arm-eabi 4.8

Can be used into Omnirom build process (kernel and modules)

Future releases :

Support for multiple devices

Mtk commits for kernel source (with comments or docs)

Improve mediatek source ?

Suggestions welcomed

Supported devices :

Faea F2S

Requested devices :

Oppo R819 - WIP

Wiko (MT6589 devices) - need check for GPL compliance (OTA and updates on kernel source)

Lenovo P780 - need check for GPL compliance (OTA and updates on kernel source)

ZTE V967S - need check for GPL compliance (OTA and updates on kernel source)

Acer Liquid E2

Requested devices but no stock sources :

Xolo Q800 - need GPL compliance

Micromax A116 - need GPL compliance

Info about compatibility :

Kernel should be compatible with MT6589/MT6589M/MT6589T because the OC is hardware dependent (it gets the values of the board to detect which generation it is)

What I won't do :

Support overclocking for MT6589/MT6589M to act like MT6589/MT6589T

So I implemented a way to build easyly the kernel

All you need is repo, git and dependencies as described here : https://github.com/Dr-Shadow/android_kernel_mt6589_manifest

So if you want to build latest kernel from my git :

For Faea F2S : ramdisk from stock ROM - almost stock kernel should be "stable"

repo init -u https://github.com/Dr-Shadow/android_kernel_mt6589_manifest.git -b master
cd kernel
./build.sh

For Oppo R819 : ramdisk from stock colorOS stable (V1.0.0i 140120) - BETA

repo init -u https://github.com/Dr-Shadow/android_kernel_mt6589_manifest.git -b r819-release
cd kernel
./build.sh

Next branch (released) :

For Faea F2S : ramdisk from stock ROM - BETA real 3.4.67 (should be stable)

repo init -u https://github.com/Dr-Shadow/android_kernel_mt6589_manifest.git -b devel-upstream
cd kernel
./build.sh

I improved the build.sh like this, you don't need to worry about vars and others.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Dr-Shadow:

Any help is welcomed for this kernel tree.

What you can actually do :

Check if you can compile actually suported devices

Do pull requests to add devices or drivers

Check changes between your original stock source of your device

Adapt configuration files (Remove drivers not added or not working, add missing var)

Create a build script with a var for TARGET_PRODUCT which would be able to check env, build kernel and modules to out/ (my build.sh is a example for e960 - Faea F2S)

Actually, I'm merging Oppo R819 sources and I saw there was differences on mediatek drivers (some things were added by Oppo)

For example, I got this diff :

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1OGQS_HWRG9LbSiBCwWilKIQ-Wo_Asbz49IREXeZFJEA/edit

So for merging I'm replacing VENDOR_EDIT by OPPO_R819 so when kernel is compiling it should be able to keep Oppo changes only for Oppo R819 (thank you preprocessor for your hard work).

Of course, I'm not merging debug stuff.

The other idea would be to create documents, to document a specific change between another mtk source like those changes :

https://docs.google.com/document/d/15Bexb9ytPsYbvwo871u0mifmh9NqDJd6Oo1rXZiDiCg/edit

The focus of doc would be to show if the changes would be interesting for system part (better app for photos for example)

Example of new var introduced by recent mtk source (MAIN_SENSOR_ROTATE_DEGREE_X see config files) :

https://github.com/Dr-Shadow/androi...hal/camera/camera/cfg_setting_imgsensor.h#L52

Ok this is for hal but it's still interesting to check changes and this is actually my focus.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] Dr-Shadow:
Thank you for your sources

I will reconsider working on this device if Acer updates the kernel source (I got a discussion for it with Acer - need some time to find a solution).

There is a working kernel by [MENTION=4917631]kashifmin[/MENTION], please check his gitrepo : http://d-h.st/zdN

this kernel have few bugs.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Dr-Shadow:
Yes but this is not a stock source.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] kashifmin:
Great work sir. Check your pm for stock source links :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] GuneetAtwal:
I see that you cherry picked many commits but still can you provide a Changelog (With Major changes from Stock MTK Kernel and Features )

This will help me atleast for development of kernel for other MTK Chipsets :)

Btw Great work i always like development and i also bought a MTK Phone based on MT6572 ;)

Adding the iOcean X7 woukd be nice, but I think sources aren't available..
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Dr-Shadow:
I think you didn't understand what I have written ^^

I cleaned kernel of debug and added the commits MTK injected in kernel so it's like stock mtk kernel with few changes and fixes (android binder for example).
[Miscellaneous Android Development] GuneetAtwal:
gotcha :p sorry for incovience created by first Page moreover have you tried Dynamic Fysnc Control by Faux123 that is nice and any way to update source with the mainstream updating source ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Dr-Shadow:
Yeah I should be able to update with mainstream updating source and it should be easier than mtk stock kernel as I fixed a lot of whitespaces, useless comments and others (around 400 or more files).

Actually I'm porting oppo R819, it will introduce some new features which could be interesting :)

Hmm Now i got it thats why the source was very smooth as earlier in Novem. i tried to compile Oppo kernel source and it compiled with no probs but your source is very smooth with some(actually many) warning but no Errors with the default drivers but when i introduced other phone's config and drivers it gave errors in aee :/ but will fix that

Thanks for Awesome Work will try and help by adding commits after my exams ;)

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] djxsilence:
Hey guys,

So i'm a long time rooter, and such so i've done some of my m own trouble shooting for this issue on my own, to no avail.

My issue is while, i'm either watching a video, or listening to music, if i'm doing anything with the tablet at all, such as checking Facebook, Emails playing a game, and what not, Quite frequently, I will hear a loud buzzer type sound, and the song / video will freeze for the duration of the buzzer.

I'm currently on ASOB 1.3.1, and I started noticing this from 1.2.9 when i first installed the ROM.

So far what i've done for trouble shooting... I've done a full power cycle of my device, I've wiped data, cache, dalvik, and system when i've upgraded version of the ROM.

The only thing that i can think of that would be affecting this would be the DSP Manager. Though this issue has never happened to me in the past with previous roms that had dsp manager, and i utilized the same or very similar settings in dsp manager across the board.

Any ideas as to what could be causing this?

Thanks!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] chrisg553:
I've been having the same problem on cm11 snapshot. It used to freeze but now the video glitches for a second along with a buzz. I also had this problem on Omni rom as well. Happens on any video playback on YouTube or any media player.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] yosmokinman:
^Ditch the snapshot the fix has been around since the 2/12 nightly. Update.

Glitch kernel also fixes the problem.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] iainaaldrich:
Anybody run into this error when sending or receiving mms? I'm on cm11 and this was never an issue until today.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] shallmann:
Yes just started today for me as well. Seemed to have started with the latest nightly for my Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 2. I tried resetting APN, no dice. Tried using Hangouts instead of stock, no change. I also tried flashing the nightly from 3/3 & was stuck in boot loop....I'm out of ideas, hoping the next nightly fixes this as I find it EXTREMELY annoying!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] hhp_211:
Try the program elixir2 from play store.

use titanium backup or similar to move it to a "system app" --- if you don't move to system it cannot write the apn settings!!

then when you run elixir2,,, tap the top left button labled "information",,, then look for and tap "Telephony",,, then tap "APN settings"

edit or add proper setting and remember to then tap the '3 dots' and 'Save' your work,,,

mms function should now work if you have the proper /etc/apn-conf.xml file

... if you need it just grab one from a previously working mms ROM and overwrite the 'apn-conf.xml' file and set permissions
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] shallmann:
Thank you for your quick reply, hhp_211. I tried copying the etc/apns-config.xml from the 3/3 nightly (which had worked fine), changed permissions & rebooted....still that pesky 'No APN specified on device' error. I did figure out how to make the error disappear, I switched to Hangouts & did a force stop on the Messaging app. A temporary fix until I figure something else out...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] hhp_211:
Cool, the .xml would only be half off the fix though... You need to set the apn

If you have the voice dialer app you can also use that and speak "open APN's" to get to the settings menu
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] iainaaldrich:
I've tried all these things to no success, but thank you. I just switched over to PAC-man and hae the same results. Then went back to stock touchwiz 4.3 and mms works fine. I figured maybe if I restore touchwiz and then restore cm11 over it then mms might work but it still doesn't. I guess this is a kitkat issue only. Seems every kitkat rom i've tried have the same issue(s).
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] shallmann:
I tried an APN setting I found on the internet, it didn't work. Not sure what it should be....at any rate using Hangouts isn't too bad. Thanks for the suggestions hhp!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] shallmann:
Found a fix for Verizon here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2053705&page=3

Essentially, in the MMSC spot in APN settings you put:

http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms?X-VZW-MDN=1234567890

REPLACE 1234567890 with the 10 Digit Phone # of the Device.

Did this by opening Elixir2 (thanks for turning me on to this hhp!), go to Information, Telephony, APN Settings. LTE - Verizon Internet is already selected. Tap on it, and change the MMSC there and SAVE.

Hope this helps someone else! THANK YOU 4MUSKRAT & hhp!

Hey Folks,

I just flashed the new KK LiquidSmooth rom. It's looking good. One of the main features I was looking for is the Halo(bubble) feature. I'm having trouble finding where to activate it. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,

Mablake184
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
Halo isn't being supported by PA any more, most ROM's are waiting for the next iteration of it, called Hover, and won't be implementing any version of Halo. Highly recommend checking out the G+ pages for the respective ROM's, good place to find info of this sort.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mablake184:
Thanks for being informative as usual. I appreciate it!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
No problem. The Omni Switch feature in the latest LS is quite nice if you haven't tried it yet, and the next nightly is supposed to have the new Recents switcher from Slim ROM. Been running LS myself the last week or so, really liking it. They have incorporated virtually all of the features which I used to need Xposed for, so now I have been able to switch to ART as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mablake184:
What does Omni Switch do?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Mr. Struck:
It's a different iteration of the recents panel, accessed by swiping from a specified side of the screen. A window will slide out showing your recent apps, RAM usage, and navigation keys (customizable), and you can switch to any app in that window.

I was wondering if anyone here uses Tasker or any other alternative automation app. I'm planning on setting it up a bit more extensively now, already started learning, but it's a kinda hard process. :p

Starting this thread so you can all give your experiences about automation apps, features, good profiles you use/like. :good:

My first question would be: How does it affect battery life?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] gerciolisz:
I was using it earlier and it was more for fun than hard task creating:p but i had profiles for games with CPU oc for music with automatic playback when BT connected, some other with brightness in specific apps:) battery really can improve when u set up things properly like WiFi 2g etc..

There are some extra deep coded tasks explained on the Internet's but they were too hard for me:p

Script dependent tasks works very well specially with iodak kernel since most of its functions are doable via scripts.

I personally like to set app dependent scripts like for exsmple make a list of all 3D intensive games and set higher gpu frequencies for them with an exit task to set default Gpu clock.

I got my Nexus 5 on contract from Three Ireland and I had to get a new SIM card with it and transfer my existing number onto that SIM card, but for the half a day before the transfer the new SIM card had a different phone number assigned to it, which appears to be what the device thinks is its phone number, even now that my existing phone number is in use. For example Hangouts just randomly asked me to confirm my phone number again, but it quoted the new SIM's original phone number instead of my existing one. Any idea if this is stored somewhere on the phone or is the SIM card itself reporting the wrong number?
