Does root work for you with that boot.img
[Nexus 9 General] gianptune:
There are a few different ways to interpret that question. I have root working 2 different ways. I installed su built from AOSP and I enabled "adb root" in my ramdisk. Both of these is sufficient for running your own code as root, but it is not enough to allow apps to run as root (supersu/superuser apk). You need to modify the init.rc with the 2 lines from chainfire's ramdisk if you want to use his apk.
[Nexus 9 General] USBhost:
O ok

Ty for all your help

I found out why it did not boot

it needs SELinux to be on

Do you know how to not compile it and still boot
[Nexus 9 General] gianptune:
works for me

root@flounder:/ # setenforce 0
root@flounder:/ # getenforce

[Nexus 9 General] petermp:
What do you mean by chopping off 0x100 byte to create the file? chopping off from factory boot.img or else? What tool have you used to do that?

My issue here is that I make some changes to flounder kernel and want to boot this one instead of the factory one, have you ever done that or know how to do this? I know how to do this for earlier Android version, but not 5.0, things have changed quite a bit.
[Nexus 9 General] gianptune:
i used something like dd if=boot.img of=boot.img.skip bs=1 skip=256
[Nexus 9 General] petermp:
Thank you, my friend. I am able to boot my own kernel now.

Dont know who you are, but you are extremely helpful on this blog.

Appreciate your info again.

Guys where you get drivers for Nexus 9 from? There are not in the https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/drivers page
[Nexus 9 General] USBhost:
What do you mean by

Drivers?
[Nexus 9 General] finikorg:
I mean binary firmware in the page I mentioned above.
[Nexus 9 General] USBhost:
O ok i get you now

I looked for our nexus 9

And nothing

And i have no idea what those binary files are for

Arnt they in the kernel code?
[Nexus 9 General] finikorg:
OK, got it. Those are inside special partition.
[Nexus 9 General] skyshsh:
thanks for sharing the good news
[Nexus 9 General] finikorg:
BTW: Why do you need to chop 0x100 bytes?
[Nexus 9 General] finikorg:
nevermind got it. I used following sequence:

Get kernel sources

$ git clone https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/tegra kernel/tegra

$ git checkout origin/android-tegra-flounder-3.10-lollipop-release

Configure kernel

$ make ARCH=arm64 flounder_defconfig

Build kernel

$ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-android-

Copy kernel to default location

$ cp kernel/tegra/arch/arm64/boot/Image.gz-dtb device/htc/flounder-kernel/

[Nexus 9 General] seanashmore:
Hey guys,

I have built AOSP before but this is my first time building an Android Kernel. I checked out the kernel source from the 'android-tegra-flounder-3.10-lollipop-release' branch and ran the following commands only to get very little output:

alittlelost@alittlelost-IdeaPad-U430-Touch:~/N9Kernel/tegra$ export ARCH=arm64

alittlelost@alittlelost-IdeaPad-U430-Touch:~/N9Kernel/tegra$ export SUBARCH=arm64

alittlelost@alittlelost-IdeaPad-U430-Touch:~/N9Kernel/tegra$ export CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-android-

alittlelost@alittlelost-IdeaPad-U430-Touch:~/N9Kernel/tegra$ make flounder_defconfig

#

# configuration written to .config

#

Firstly, is this the latest and greatest branch that I can build from? It was the latest I could see that had the flounder_defconfig profile.

Also, am I missing out any steps here? I'm curious why when I run the above it does not produce an image for example. I'd appreciate any help you guys could offer.

Thanks.
[Nexus 9 General] USBhost:
https://github.com/USBhost/Nexus-9-kernel-stock for the latest

Also you need to do

make -j the number of cores you have

Like make -j4
[Nexus 9 General] seanashmore:
Thanks! Checking out the repo now. So my commands are correct other than the -j4 to speed things up? I'm not seeing an image being produced.
[Nexus 9 General] USBhost:
Yes

The image will be a dtb image

basically a zimage

That you need to put into a boot.img
[Nexus 9 General] seanashmore:
So i checked out that repo and ran make flounder_defconfig and get:

alittlelost@alittlelost-IdeaPad-U430-Touch:~/N9Kernel/Nexus-9-kernel-stock$ make flounder_defconfig

HOSTCC scripts/basic/fixdep

HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/conf.o

SHIPPED scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.c

SHIPPED scripts/kconfig/zconf.lex.c

SHIPPED scripts/kconfig/zconf.hash.c

HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/zconf.tab.o

HOSTLD scripts/kconfig/conf

#

# configuration written to .config

#

is this expected? Where is the image output? I couldn't find anything with a 'find -name'. Thank you again for helping me.
[Nexus 9 General] USBhost:
Yes

After make flounder_defconfig

Do

make -j you know
[Nexus 9 General] seanashmore:
Worked like a charm. I haven't a lot of experience with make if that wasn't already obvious. So I have my dtb as you said, if i run make bootimage as seen in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/nexus-9/help/howto-build-nexus-9-volantis-target-t2959911

will that give me a flashable boot.img that I can flash using adb as normal?
[Nexus 9 General] USBhost:
I don't have any experience with abootmage

I'm no help there

I found it hard to use
[Nexus 9 General] seanashmore:
No problem. Thank you very much for your help! I found a guide that I am going to follow, I'll paste it here for anybody who comes across this thread in future: http://softwarebakery.com/building-the-android-kernel-on-linux

Can't wait for flounder Android 5.1 kernel source to be released.
[Nexus 9 General] adryyandc:
dmesg buffer size

Hello,

Anyone has any idea how to safely increase dmesg buffer size over 4MB on Nexus 9?

I set CONFIG_LOG_BUF_SHIFT=22 in flounder_defconfig at compile time in order to increase buffer to 4MB (also edit Kconfig to allow increasing it over 2 MB). I need at least 32MB of dmesg buffer.

When i set CONFIG_LOG_BUF_SHIFT to 23 (8 MB) and beyond i will get "unhandled level 2 translation fault" exceptions logged into log or even worse device wont boot.

The CMA is set to 16MB increasing it to 32 MB will make kernel not boot. I assume this exception is because of CMA. It make sens as dmesg buffer memory is aligned to 4bytes so 4MBx4=16 MB.

Thank you!

P.S. i use android 5.0.1

Flash this ROM over CM11 Xperia Z3 Legend Edition

I am a noob. I had CM11 Xperia Z3 Legend Edition ROM by gamzekel. So I flashed the latest Nemesis kernel over it installed this ROM. But after rebooting the phone was on a constant loop in the NXP screen, after the NXP screen the phone automatically restarted. Can you provide me with instructions how to flash this on my XP. Thank You. :confused:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] jitz975:
Please read the instructions carefully. Inorder to flash PhoeniX ROM you need to be on stock. First flash latest stock SONY 6.2.A.1.100 firmware and then flash kernel n then this ROM. You need to be on stock before flashing any stock based ROM, or else it will cause bootloop. Hope you are clear ;) :)

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] epimazzo:
Hi all!

I´ve just got a friend´s kjam to replace its ROM and unfortunately, I came up with the following odd behaviour! See if one of you can solve it!

After a 1.05 button ROM flash (CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE), it appears:

IPL 1.01

SPL 1.01.000

GSM 1.12.10.0

OS 1.5.4.2

I´ve already done this process many times including mine device G3 without any hard issues. I know that SPL with xxx seems to be a G4, but initially wasn't. The button ROM should have upgraded to 1.05 as expected and not 1.01. This version turns Wizard to work unstable.

The problem arises when trying to load Boot loader! Nothing happens! No mode at all! I still boot on this version but can´t reflash it to another newer ROM out there. I also tried the official ROM from Imate without luck as well.

Not even a hold camera process works. :(

Any idea or workaround on how to get back the boot loader mode?:confused:

I really appreciate any comments!

Thanks in advance.
[AirDroid] robroth:
I'm cleaning up my phone, PHOTOS only shows photos stored on the phone, it doesn't include photos on the SD card.

So I downloaded the SD card photos via Airdroid FILES and now want to delete them

If I right click on EXTERNAL SD CARD, I'm given the delete option, but if I dive into any subdirectories, all delete options are greyed out whether it's right click on directory or file, or select and click the trash can.

Any ideas? This is a Note 3 running Android 4.3
[AirDroid] Hearst:
Would you please attach a screenshot here? Generally, if you right click on EXTERNAL SD CARD, there's no delete option.
[AirDroid] robroth:
Here you go
[AirDroid] robroth:
And here you can see no delete option
[AirDroid] robroth:
Has nobody run into this before? I posted the screenshots that were requested. Was kind of expecting a response.
[AirDroid] Hearst:
If AirDroid doesn't have the permission to delete files on your external sd card, the delete option will be greyed out. Or would you please give it a try on the phone: AirDroid--->Tools--->Files. Try deleting one photo there just to check if AirDroid has the permission. Thank you in advance :)
[AirDroid] robroth:
I think you're on to something. Using AirDroid on the phone itself, I attempted to delete a file from the SD card. The delete option was there, it said the delete was successful, but nothing was actually deleted.

What might prevent this from working?
[AirDroid] Hearst:
AirDroid does not have the permission to delete files on your SD card :(
[AirDroid] robroth:
right, we determined that. my question was WHY would it not have permissions? What should I be looking at to fix that problem?
[AirDroid] Sneedme:
anyone knows how to fix it ?

cant set the external SD path

ES File manager doesn't have all the associations - for example it wont give the option to open CBR files via Perfect Viewer, despite re-installing both

AnTuTu crashes once every 2 tries ( used to crash every time after the restore )

I made a short video of the atrocious performance of Google Chrome on my HTC One M8 (Verizon), linked below. This happens on more than just this particular web site - it was just one that I happened to bookmark for future performance comparisons.

My phone is completely stock (non-rooted). I am looking for feedback from others with this phone (ideally stock), to see if this particular web site acts the same way as shown in the video. I am very close to doing a factory reset and starting over to see if I see the same issue on the phone in its "out of the box" condition (other than the OTA updates that have been applied).

Here's my setup:

- Sinjimoru Credit Card Pouch V3.

- Spigen Crystal Clear Tpu Case

The Sinjimoru uses a hardcore 3M adhesive to attach onto any case.

I had the same setup on my Note 3. The pouch on my old setup lasted pretty much the whole time. Didn't give up and the adhesive haven't peeled in anyway.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] LeoNote4:
I enjoyed the irony of having the best mobile device with a credit card pouch. We can now mobile pay so credit card is unnecessary.

[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] lovekeiiy:
Actually, mobile is not well supported in the USA. The credit card companies are still fighting with each other in regards to it support. I thought we might have seen some progress with ApplePay since there would be an huge herd of iPhone6 users who would be willing to use it. Alas, a couple of major supporters have already stopped supporting it.

Personally, I like Google Wallets implementation. Unfortunately, Google, Apple, and various other tech companies don't have enough clout in the financial markets to change the credit card. It will occur, but it's going to a lot more time.
