can u give me an advice which Linux Distro I should use for setting up my Virtual machine?

I want to setup a dev environment for cloning sykopompos's / defconois github(s)...

I think, on github for the flo branch I read somewhat about debian!?

thanx in advance

(I have an older Ubuntu VMware image, that I used before about 1year for compiling NOOK COLOR ROM/kernel branches...)
[Nexus 4 Android Development] jayfallen:
well, took me long enough to download the deb test build from google drive...

I tried installing it as secondary and primary via multirom, but neither booted into homescreen, stuck with boot animation...

about the log, here is the avc part(very little output, not sure if it's the right one), i'll upload the last kmsg and logcat later...
[Nexus 4 Android Development] jayfallen:
here's the last kmsg from deb, the logcat file i pulled showed up empty,,,:(

[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
Instead of continuing on the current mako repo, I'm gonna make a new one. This way I got no remnants. Gonna start with a flo 81c base as a flo-rebase repo then fork it off to mako.

That will allow us to track it from the beginning because I keep laying down the breadcrumbs but the birdies are eating them so we keep getting lost and ending up at that nice lady's house with all that candy instead of where we wanna go with this.

The ancient dark magic is too strong in the current mako repo

it has volume rocker wake-up? i really want so bad this prev but my power buton is not so great :( 72u unleashed L_preview is the lates kernel and the best for this rom? :D
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ramjet73:
The good news is the B5 ROM itself is very solid and accommodates a wide variety of KitKat based kernels. AFAIK the only major bug left is Bluetooth and there are workarounds for most everything else. Hopefully the developer tools like APKtool and the Xposed Framework get updated for L soon and we can begin getting some of the "nice to haves" that users have been asking about.

By re-basing it on the stock L configurations all your enhancements should be more easily moved to the release version of L, and to the subsequent updates that are likely to come pretty quickly based on the history of Jelly Bean and KitKat.

And if you are looking to produce generic tools and/or environments, they have to be compatible with the stock L ROM's for other devices otherwise you will wind up completing with CM, AOKP, Paranoid Android, Slim and other ROM's whose cores are enhanced versions of the AOSP source. IMO, if you want to build an "AOSP enhanced" version of the stock ROM's you are better off starting with the stock version of those ROM's. That does mean you will never be able to compile the complete ROM from source, like the AOSP enhanced ROM versions, but even those still have to depend on some proprietary binaries.

FWIW, that's the way I see it. :cool:

ramjet73
[Nexus 4 Android Development] sykopompos:
Well once official L comes to the source, I will be going to work on my developer resource which will essentially compete in a sense with the likes of every other ROM that is built from source. The goal is to get them to move over to the new source that I'm doing to try to increase the portability of their features between devices and different Roms.

I'm not happy with the current structure and plan to redo it in a sense starting with L

Pushing up 81c flo base to github in the flo-rebase repo. Once that is fully setup, I will fork it over to the mako-rebase and go through and clean out the flo specific files (I might actually just make that a generic fork without Flo's stuff out then copy that fork then over to mako this way there is a template) then we will start merging in the mako specific stuff and right up through with all the aosp and newer binaries. That will be v6. Breadcrumbs, bunnies and witches for mako which will be a lot leaner and lighter

Well they will be more of a every device development thread because the base is for every device.

I'm not totally clear on what your tool(s) are going to do but it sounds like you would be better off in the generic development forums. Not every device segregates "original development" from "development" in the forums either.

ramjet73

Are you using the L version of defconoi's kernel? That should give you the correct ramdisk edits to be fully permissive. If not you are gonna have to redownload his kernel because your ramdisk is broken

I like the idea of forking the bare preview images out into their own forks and then continuing out on the main one so we have a template to use instead of reverting everything that is gonna go in later on down the line. This gives other devices a clean base which to start with

Yea, I really like my Note 8.0. Perfect combination of portability and usability and loaded with features like the Spen.

Too bad it's from Samsung and I voided my warranty after upgrading to KitKat 4.4.2, which includes the KNOX enabled bootloader, and flashed a custom recovery. :(

It's possible to root the stock 4.4.2 ROM without tripping the KNOX flag using Towelroot but flashing any unsigned image, including custom kernels, ROM's and recoveries, trips it and the warranty is immediately voided. :eek:

The Nexus devices are so much nicer to customize, at least at this point. :good:

[Nexus 4 Android Development] ramjet73:
According to the Apple fanboys you can return a jail broken iDevice to what appears to be complete stock but there doesn't seem to be a consensus on whether or not Apple still has a way to tell it was once jail broken.

Since Samsung uses the eFuse technology, which is supposed to be irreversible, there is no way that the device can be returned to true stock and when that flag is set certain security features, like KNOX containers, are disabled thus giving Samsung an argument that the device cannot be reconditioned and therefore should lose warranty.

Of course the chip containing the eFuse could be replaced, but my understanding is that it's part of the SOC, so that would mean having to install a new mainboard. :eek:

Camera

Is there any way to get the Camera working? It will open, make picture and then it freezes without saving it. After short time app crashes.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] ramjet73:
But the bootloader and other binaries are not and the open source software can interact with the closed source software as it is already doing for KNOX. According to Samsung's own documentation even running a custom script in the stock ROM may trip the KNOX flag and I doubt that you are going to stop that by modifying the open source code. :(

Edit: Here's the Samsung page that talks about the thinks that trip the KNOX flag. Note the following:

And the radios are all closed source so who knows what they are transmitting behind the scenes? We already know that the transmitted signals can be used for location using triangulation and that has nothing to do with open source or the software on the phone.

Besides, I like my tinfoil hat. ;)
