Do you mean delete Legendary-v1.3.5-signed/data?

Thanks for reply.

BR
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HomerSp:
Sounds like you didn't wipe all before flashing Legendary.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] intronauta:
(in recovery)

wipe data/dalvik

flash rom

$adb shell

#mount -a

#cd /system/sd/app-private/

#rm *

#reboot

Usually works for me, there is problems with protected/paid apps (/app-private) in a fresh install
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HishamN:
That is right, wipe solved the issue.

Legendary works now, I'll try to port libs from official rom to support my language.

I hope it will work.

Thanks for help.

BR
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HishamN:
Yes forgot to wipe.

It's working now.

Thanks for help.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ahmadmz3:
Good to know some people are working on it , for me I set up the kitchen but I haven't tried it yet . I'm going to try it today .
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HishamN:
Good luck, let us share knowledges in this thread : -)

I'll try tomorrow, I hope we can solve it soon.

BR
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ahmadmz3:
Thanks, ok sharing is good by me .

Anyway I ported the rom to the hero and I got the error system/xbin , I think its because of the rom I used to port the legend rom , do you know any other rom that doesn't have a busybox ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HishamN:
OK, I'll start:

Porting Legend using:

Official 1.5 ROM

Officail 2.1 ROM

Ported ROM's from Legend

Custmized ROMs 1.5, 2.1

Ported ROMs from Droid

All didn't work.

Tried to move some libs (libwebcore and libskia)

Also didn't work.

I also move only boot.img ( Just I want try every things :$ )

Same as above, didn't work.

Hope it help.

BR
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
I will port the Legend ROM for you if you want, but I won't have the time until sunday or next monday. Just let me know.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HishamN:
I'll be more than happy if you did it.

Thanks in advanced.

BR
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ahmadmz3:
I did the same as you did , I think the problem is in the kernel because nothing is working !
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HishamN:
I tried to extract kernel from working ROM ported from Legend but same thing, didn't work!

BR
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Here is my usual method for porting.

1) take RAM disk of ROM, and kernel of hero ROM merge to boot.img

2) take modules from kernel and add to rom.

3) take the hw libs from hero ROM and add to ROM

4) try booting now after making suitable build.prop

5) fix remaining issues depending on the port.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HishamN:
Hi anon2122

Thanks for steps, I'll try it and inform you about results.

Thanks again

BR
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
You're welcome. I typed it on my phone, so watch out for typos etc. As for which files to use, either get them from a ROM based on the 2.1 GSM Taiwan ROM, or the original RUU if you know how to extract it. Either should be fine.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HishamN:
Hi,

I did as you describe and I used Hero 2.1 official ROM but didn't work.

Hisham-Mac:kitchen Hisham$ adb logcat
* daemon not running. starting it now *
* daemon started successfully *
- waiting for device -

To be more clearly, I assumed "rom" in your reply is Legend rom and hero ROM is hero official ROM.

Thanks a lot for you help.

BR
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
What SDK are u using? Try downloading the latest SDK. Use that adb:

adb kill-server

adb start-server

adb logcat

Good to go.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HishamN:
Hi,

I'm using SDK 2.1 API 7.

Logcat is working but some ROMs (Ported from Legend) logcat is not working.

Thanks for help.

BR
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Are you using the new drivers which have the correct device ID in them (on windows)?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HishamN:
Hi,

No, I'm using Mac OS.

Is Windows more efficient than Mac? I can use my wife notebook with Win 7.

BR
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Hmm. I don't use mac often, so can't help much with that I'm afraid.

With the advent of the new 2.1 Taiwan ROM, adb uses a different device ID to talk to the computer. This means that often the device won't be found.

Maybe you should try downloading the 2.2 SDK (latest one) and USB drivers to the windows laptop. I use Win7 x64 here fine, so it should be easy to set up.

See if phone appears on adb. If it doesn't, we may need to look at what's happening.

I presume the phone is sitting on the 'SPL' screen with your network logo?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Mac is perfect. Although Linux would be a lot better ;)

Forget M$ its crap ehhehe
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
But I am still convinced it being an kernel issue :)

Try removing the bin and xbin directory. Put bin and xbin from the official 2.1 rom. I have a feeling those binaries have been compiled differently.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Sorry for the off-topic, but I just had to ask something about cronos linux :)

I tried ubuntu and didn't like it, since my laptop doubled its powertop reported consumption after sleep. This made my 10 hour CULV battery life drop to nearer 4 or so.

So... regretably back to windows 7 x64 for now. I was wondering if your distro is compatible with the mainstream 2.6.34 kernel, with vgaswitcheroo enabled. I don't know enough about the ACPI support to figure out if Cronos linux will be the solution to my problems with power use after sleep :)

Back on topic, which bin and xbin binaries are you now using, and which kernel are you using? Use the binaries from the same ROM as the kernel, and see if that helps.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HishamN:
Hi,

I'll try to download latest SDK and try again.

I don't know what you meant by "I presume the phone is sitting on the 'SPL' screen with your network logo?" but when booting Hero it sitting on Hero logo.

I'll try SDK suggestion.

Thanks again.

BR
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HishamN:
I liked Mac after using ubuntu (Ubuntu also my virtual OS at mac)

:)

I'll try it now.

Thanks for help.

BR
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Ah cool. That sounds like the same thing. The Hero logo bit. I have a branded phone, so it sits on T-Mobile on mine in this case.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HishamN:
Hi,

I used bin, xbin from same Legend ROM.

I'll try bin and xbin from Hero.

OK got it :)

Thanks a lot for support

BR
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
@Offtopic:

Yes it is compatible with latest kernels. Although you will need to do some patching to et it supported on the Cronos patchsets, the current kernel is:

Linux Cronos 2.6.33-ck1-Cronos-Optimum-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Apr 5 07:00:15 UTC 2010 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T8300 @ 2.40GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

Ill see if I can get an update send out for the Cronos users asap with a custom 2.6.34 BFS kernel. But ACPI is fully supported yea.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Yeah the kernel you changed from the 2.1 ROM to the legend build is probably not compatible with the bin and xbin from legend.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HishamN:
Hi,

Changed the bin and xbin and unfortunately same thing.

SDK upgrade also didn't work.

Thanks a lot.

BR
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HishamN:
I'll try another ROMs.

I hope it will work with another try.

Thanks a lot to all of you, I really appreciate you replies and help.

Whats the current issue with booting this build?

I can help u out :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] zygame:
I can't found which file contains Arabic support,neither libskia.so nor libsgl.so there's no Arabic support symbols in them.May they build it into the kernel?bad news.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Ahmadmz3:
Try this libwebcore.so , also I think there is an app that belong to the company which made the Arabic support (parfield) , also look for libjni_parfield.so .
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] HishamN:
Hi benhaam,

Severals boot issues depand on which ROM I used or it depend on how I ported it.

I'll summarize it:

1- If you reboot Phone after flash, it will reboot again to recovery mode. (Logcat doesn't work it waiting for a device)

2- After reboot it stick on Hero logo, logcat "ink_image[1721]: 53 could not load needed library 'libstdc++.so' for '/system/bin/sh' (load_library[1051]: Library 'libstdc++.so' not found)CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE".

3- Flashing aborted, error message "Can't chown/mod /system/xbin ( no such file or directory ) E: Failure at line 12: set_perm_recursive 0 2000 0755 06755 SYSTEM:xbin"

P.S:bin/xbin exist.

4- After flashing and reboot it stop on Hero logo, logcat last lines (vold not configure, bootstramp OK).

5- Flashing aborted, error message releated to busybox, tried to change it from another ROM and same issue!

P.S: busybox exist in xbin!

I really appreciate your help.

Ok after some work I got this working:

- WiFi

- Bluetooth

- 3G

- Accelerometer

I deodexed the build to fit inside the system partition of Hero, one framework file couldnt be deodexed, that is the framework file for the rss feed app, it's due to baksmali having issues with it. I have not had time to test it alot since its not my Hero I'm testing on, but most important things work.

This is only a base for you guys to work on, it is slow and may have alot of bugs, atleast its booting and most important stuff is working pretty good.

I wont maintain this rom, its only for the Arabian devs to pick up and continue, atleast this one is booting.

What did I add:

- Apps2sd

- OpenVPN

- Tun

- Busybox

Enjoy and good luck!

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] humaidka:
Just tried this port it was slow and not very stable. i also didn't find the market app. being a noobie i would like to have something well-cooked not medium-rare.

@Maxo

Why not try to merge the arabic stuff from this rom with the official hero 2.1. When i tried the official one it was blazing fast.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] MaXo64:
done a lot of work on the ROM.

will post it in a new thread after I finish testing..
