Thanks! I'm pretty excited to be here, it's been a goal of mine for a long time.

Honestly the Marshmallow stuff is largely the same as Lollipop at the moment. The kernel and device trees on my GitHub have branches for Marshmallow. The "audio" branch is very incomplete, and you should completely ignore it. The biggest challenge with bringing up the device is not the kernel, but rather the HAL (hardware abstraction layer) for different subsystems. I've been using binaries pulled from the official KitKat releases (audio.primary.glass_1.so), which worked well up until Marshmallow. Unfortunately, that means a lot of reverse engineering is involved to get those pieces working at all - that means rewriting the HAL from scratch.

My best advice is to use Unlegacy-Android's device trees as a guide. If you can get tuna's audio HAL working at all for Glass, then it should just be a matter of modifying routes from there. The Glass hardware is very peculiar due to the many configurations that should be supported "out of the box" (mono with no earpiece attached, mono with single earpiece, stereo with dual earpiece, etc). Much of this logic should be controlled in the HAL (Android shouldn't know about it, and the kernel doesn't care). From the reverse-engineering I've done, it looks like the binary that was included in KitKat didn't properly support a lot of this, which means they likely modified the Android frameworks for the custom behavior. If they didn't modify the frameworks themselves, then they would have to have done the work inside the GDK, which means no application built without the GDK would work properly, which is precisely what I would have liked to avoid.

I wanted a "pure" build of AOSP to work as a typical user might expect. That means the Android frameworks should largely remain untouched, and also means that bringing Glass to Nougat and beyond would just be a matter of updating the kernel and HAL, if necessary. This also means any new apps should simply use the standard Android SDK rather than the GDK, as none of those APIs are supported at all in these AOSP builds.

Bluetooth needs a lot of work too, feel free to play with that instead if you want :) good luck!
[Glass Development] hasseye:
This is awesome. Thanks. I want to test it, but before I go off the deep end, is there a way to revert it and get the official Google Glass version back on? Just in case it isn't for me. Looking to develop glass code and share it amongst a few different android platforms, would prefer not having to use the GDK.
[Glass Development] jtxdriggers:
Yes, you would simply flash the factory image from https://developers.google.com/glass/tools-downloads/system#factory_images
[Glass Development] samuel.caldas:
Its a good ideia try flash Android wear apps?
[Glass Development] ethan_hines:
I tired to install it using CWM 20140613-UNOFFICIAL-glass_1 and I have XE23 installed. But it just says installation failed. No explanation no error code.
[Glass Development] samuel.caldas:
the first aw is based on KK

I think porting android wear to google glass is the best way to keep it alive. starting to create a wear gapps package as it was made for android tv maybe a good idea

As far as I know, this project has basically been abandoned and so the 2016 version is the newest available.

Is this still worth playing around with, or did it cease to work when glass services were shut down?
[Glass Development] log3an:
Just installed this rom on a now unsurrported Google Glass explorer edition, and it looks absolutely beautiful, I wish I could say more for its functionality. The touchpad is multidirectional and it's impossible to navigate, since input devices aren't working. Bravo though on its current condition, it's 10 times better than the final Glass update offered by Google. In 2022 it's all a crapshoot now anyway, not knowing what will work from 2013, and whatnot.
[Glass Development] Chestburster107:
Are you able to install any APK files with this rom and have it work? I ask this because I found online a launcher for glass that allows easy navigation and was wondering if it'll work with the rom.

As for navigation through the rom would using a app (fluid navigation guestures) help with that?

Ps I plan to get my hands on my own pair in a few weeks so hopefully I can answer these questions in case no one else is able to
[Glass Development] log3an:
Yes, with this ROM you can install any 5.1.1 APK, just as you would any other rooted Android. Right now I've got the Clockworkmod recovery installed with this ROM, and the nano GApps pack, which allows Google account sign-in, Play Store installs, and YouTube play. What is the launcher you are referring to though? Could you share the link? Thanks.
[Glass Development] Chestburster107:
https://xdaforums.com/t/glass-launcher-an-app-launcher-with-a-native-feel.2564325/

This is the launcher I was talking about

And where would I find the clockworkmod recovery/nano Gapps
[Glass Development] droidzer1:
So I pulled out the Google Glass yesterday and was looking in my computer for something that might fix the issue with Google voice search not working anymore on it. It hadn't been used for just over 2 years so I wasn't yet aware of the destructive end Google decided to make for this expensive device. I found a folder on my PC labeld 'don't use' which had the XE24 rom in it. To my recall I probably tried it before Feb. 2020 and saw how limited it was thus my 'don't use' folder. But of course I thought I'd try it not realizing that now you can't go back to XE23. Before that big mistake I could still make phone calls , do texts, and a number of other things XE24 totally eliminated.

After seeing again what XE24 did and the fact that putting XE23 back on made it impossible to get past the Setup / Tutorial on either my phone or the PC I decided to try taking apart the XE23 system image to delete the Setup in hopes I could do that and repack it without getting an error with fastboot reinstalling this modded system image. It probably won't work but now I'm stuck at not being able to repack everything as I haven't found anything that is working in either Windows or Linux. Is this even possible or am I just wasting my time? Willing to try anything to get it back like it was since the only thing that wasn't working before yesterday was to Google voice question function - which was really nice 'till they killed it.

BTW I couldn't find the AOSP 5.1.1 rom anymore on the Google drive. But I found it here along with 4.4.4 and 6.0.1 - all in a place that says it is a backup of lost files from XDA after the big update:

index - powered by h5ai v0.30.0 (https://larsjung.de/h5ai/)

index - powered by h5ai v0.30.0 (https://larsjung.de/h5ai/)

aol.zanoza.lv

Note that the above link in my browser warns it is a Malware site but I'm sure it is not. Maybe Google doesn't want anyone using these? I have very tight security with my firewall and AV and nothing suspicious is happening when I go forward from the warning. Very slow downloading but if I get all three I'll put them up somewhere that is faster if anyone is interested and won't have the warning.
[Glass Development] droidzer1:
I spent a lot of time trying to install an app on the stock Glass XE24 without luck so I did a Clockworkmod backup of XE24 and put the AOSP 6.0.1 on it. USB with ADB was very flaky. Nearly impossible to get to the function to turn on USB for file transfer protocol and even when it was on the adb wouldn't see the Glass except very briefly - very on and off almost to where I couldn't do an adb reboot bootloader. Attempts to use Vysor to have control of the Glass from the computer only worked for a few seconds before Vysor crashed.

Camera kept coming up and there was no way to get out of the camera once it was started by any touches I used. Had to power down to close camera.

Overall 6.0.1 was very frustrating and I would not suggest it to anyone for Glass. I finally got adb to reboot to the bootloader so I could try AOSP 5.1.1. That is a way better experience. ADB worked right away without any intermittency. So I could control it with Vysor easily although it's a bit slow. Without Vysor though I still could not find a way to exit the camera app - which tends to heat up Glass quite a bit. I do wish the normal Glass 'go back' function would work on this AOSP as that could really make Glass more useful again than Google's sinister despicable unethical reduction of this expensive hardware to nothing more than an over priced eyeglass camera :mad: :giggle:
[Glass Development] droidzer1:
BTW I spent hours at stackoverflow.com reading how members were describing how to get an app to run with adb but everything suggested did not work on my Glass. If anyone knows how to do that with the XE24 Glass OS please post here as I would still like to be able to use it under XE24 if I can get some useful apps on it and have them show up from the Glass menu.

I tried things like adb shell am start app.name, adb shell monkey -p app.name, adb shell startservice app.name and a whole lot of variations like the start activity on those with zero success.
[Glass Development] Super Nicktendo:
So if I understand correctly, you can't sideload anything into the XE24 build of glass? I was hoping to at least get video calls or something. I got a pair off eBay and thought that I could do something more with it. Womp Womp.
[Glass Development] Chestburster107:
There are some apps you can sideload on to glass running the XE24 update. Pretty much just a music player, video player, browser, and a game. Glass echo is a good one to sideload since it'll have notifications be sent from your phone to glass.
[Glass Development] droidzer1:
Yes the QR code / web browser works ok. Use 'adb install' to try apps and so far a couple have worked including 'The Game' that was based on the Star Trek NG episode where everyone got mind sucked by a device playing a game that looked like this ;)

Where can you find the 'Glass echo' ? Looking hard for something that can do a voice search like Glass had before Google killed that function. I put the original Google voice search back on and it recognizes voice as text but of course it points to a non-existent server. I looked at the code in the app but can't find any way so far I could modify it and I'm sure it would object to any changes anyway. I tried a half dozen other "Voice search" apps but all either fail to install or if they succeed installing I can't find a way to start them.

Is there any other launchers that might work on glass? I tried the AOSP roms but they are so slow as to be mostly unusable and if you add voice control you'll be waiting 20 minutes for anything to happen.
[Glass Development] Chestburster107:
https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/mobile/folders/170yBAnWXtu8cQNvjzyKHPbF19T4GvbNJ?usp=sharing ← this has what's needed for GlassEcho. As for your voice search stuff I would try to use launchy to try to launch the apps you installed.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhagrid77:
Hello,

I own a Trio Stealth G4 7" tablet that was bought brand new for me for Christmas. I cannot tell whether it's rooted or not, all I know is that it's all offical.

My problem is that I should have 8GB, 4 for System ROM and 4 for Apps (I think that's how it works), but anyways, I don't even have access to 1GB of internal storage, the 4GB that should be available is listed under SD Card Storage instead of Internal Storage. I have factory reformatted every possible way.

Is there any way to fix this, or do I just need to return it and get a different tablet?

Thank You

Hello,

I am trying to reverse engineer my phone that won't allow me to flash the partitions with an img file I took using DD. I have the following issue-

[root@localhost platform-tools]# ./fastboot flash system system.img
target reported max download size of 1073741824 bytes
Invalid sparse file format at header magi

[root@localhost platform-tools]# ./fastboot oem unlock
...
FAILED (remote: oem unlock is not allowed)
finished. total time: 0.012s
[root@localhost platform-tools]#

The first thing I did when I set up the phone was make sure it was unlocked in developer options.

OEM unlocking

Allow the bootloader to be unlocked

(with the slider moved over to the right)

It's almost like the settings conflict with each other. Any ideas on this? It looks like even though it is on in developer options doesn't mean that it will work in ADB. The proof is in the pudding as they say.

According to the research I have done, I am also seeing that with many phones you must set the option in fastboot mode after setting this in developer options.

I tried to compare/diff the aboot image partition in a hex editor but it did not show any differences in them. To do this I started out with the option set locked and took a DD image of aboot. I then restarted the phone and set the option to unlock and took a second DD image.

I have a full backup of all partitions of the phone and could post any additional info you need.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jtpiano:
Turns out the easier solution is using a tool to flash the phone properly rather than unlock the bootloader. I should have realized when I wasn't getting a response that I was going down the wrong track. Now to get MPRG8909.hex and 8909_msimage.mbn files........

Found this just a couple of minutes ago on Android Police. It's called Velociraptor. It's an overlay for Google Maps that shows the speed limit of the current road, and your actual speed. You're able to move the overlay to any point on the screen. Pretty clean looking, too! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pluscubed.velociraptor
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] SchmilK:

[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] v2.2v:
Oh man! But it works fine on your phone? I didn't think it would work through Android auto because it's an overlay of the actual phone app.

It works on the phone, just not on android auto. Oh well, still love android auto.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] crazyfool_1:

Yea I don't think it is an oversight either but they are constantly improving. We will probably see them officially implement it soon
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] GroovyGeek:
Had to Uninstall this. Caused wonky behavior in gmaps. When you sit in place the map and old just oscillate around as if the GPS sensor output is not getting properly smoothed or the sensor is misbehaving. Since I removed it things have been back to normal. Also did not play well with dashdroid, would display the speed limit overlay even when you were not in maps.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] linkisoc:
Happened to me too, could only attribute it to velociraptor. Removed it and maps and navigation went back to normal. I'd like to use velociraptor, it has a lot of promise. If they can make it smooth and accurate like TomTom speed cameras then find. Tom tom has an overlay setting that you can use it on Google maps.

[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] nitrous²:
Pretty sure it's legal concerns preventing Google from implementing such a feature to Maps. There's a case in Germany OLG Celle, Lower Saxony where the court ruled apps alerting drivers about speed cameras and their location illegal. Can't tell about other EU or non-EU countries.

Lol this is the velociraptor link. I was looking for the tomtom link
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] linkisoc:
Try this : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tomtom.speedcams.android.map&hl=en_GB

Not sure if it's just for GB though....I can confirm in the UK this TomTom app works great !
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] techguyone:
HERE maps use this, and thats NOKIA based, maybe Google don't want to pay Nokia for using the HERE data. Velociraptor originally used the HEE SDK but now it's using OSM data, which makes it much less good, I may try the tom tom overlay.
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] v2.2v:
Damn lol not available in the States
[Nexus 6P Themes and Apps] spotmark:
I see that they have added the speed limit to the Waze speedometer as well.
