SgtShultz v.4 - "I know nothing-Nothing!"

BTW, I did pull some files from Plain Jane v1 (which means the files are pretty much from a stock ROM), and I did get permission from jcase. Thanks to jcase and all of the other devs who have used their own time to bring us the ROMs, tutorials, root methods, and tools that we have!

GOALS

-----

1) take a freshly compiled AOSP Froyo ROM and make it useable

2) thoroughly document every step via a public forum (here)

3) learn fun stuff

4) add the steps to Android Builder in order to automate as much as possible in the future

5) help to complete any applicable vendor trees that anyone is working on

6) learn fun stuff

7) hopefully, help others to learn fun stuff

So, I've been working on Android Builder which compiles AOSP + kernel and puts a ROM into dsixda's kitchen. AB works pretty well, but has much more potential. In order for it to create a useable ROM, there are some proprietary bits and some setting changes that are needed. I don't yet know what most of those are. So, I've been thinking about this...

Hmmm. If I were creating a freshly compiled but useable ROM, why just fix things and have a changelog like this? -

Changelog -

v.1.2.9918 - fixed raygun

v.1.1.3454 - fixed wifi

When I could have something like this? -

Changelog -

v.1.2.9918 - fixed raygun

adjusted the Heisenberg compensator to full instead of 3/4​

v.1.1.3454 - fixed wifi

recompiled wlan.ko for this kernel and copied to /system/lib/modules

changed line in init.rc from 'chmod 0440 /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf' to 'chmod 0660 /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf'​

And, just maybe, someone else out there will find this interesting enough to help out. The more the merrier. This is not a race. I don't even care if anyone ever uses this as their daily use ROM. That's not really the point.

What's NOT working:

1) making and recieving calls (fixed in post #2)

2) data connection (fixed in post #2)

3) 3G (fixed in post #2)

4) mounting of SDCARD (fixed somehow?)

5) wifi (see post #19 for an attempt)

6) bluetooth

7) home, back, etc. keys (fixed in post #2)

8) GPS

9) lights

10) sensors?

11) audio

12) JIT?

13) No Google apps

14) screen rotation

15) need to add 'su' mostly, but also bash & nano - just because I like them

What works in v.1:

1) boots!

2) touchscreen (enabled in kernel via 'make menuconfig')

3) trackball

4) video (like... you can see the icons and stuff)

So, here we go...

Changelog starting in next post.

Cool idea. Also, I like the name. I'm a Hogan's Heroes fan. :-P
[Droid Eris Android Development] Sjflowerhorn:
i'm game for learning whats going on inn the background of things if you wouldn't mind sending me some of your notes it would be much appreciated. i don't want to copy your work but i would like some sort of guideline as to where i am messing up on my own that way i can avoid these issues.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tcberg2010:
Agreed, would be interested in this also.

Not sent from an iPhone.

Android for Life!!!
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Well... The notes are pretty much in the thread already. If you need me to clarify anything, feel free to ask. It's possible that I've done something so many times that I think I'm explaining, but I'm not really.

Please COPY MY WORK! That's the whole point of this project. This about learning and sharing the knowledge. If I'm not currently sharing something, I'll be glad to change that.

I, (insert name here), do hearby proclaim that anyone can use any work that I have done on this project, (insert name here), for whatever they want to use it for as long as they know that I am not responsible for anything that they do.

;)

So, apparently the dev team just went from one person to three. Is that right?
[Droid Eris Android Development] Sjflowerhorn:
count me in

I wanna learn everything i can.

=)
[Droid Eris Android Development] zach.xtr:
I am also interested as I too am still learning :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Thanks! Welcome. I really didn't know which way this would go. Amongst the lost and buried threads with little 'ol me sticking it out as long as could or with a crowd. It looks promising.

I should have another update by tomorrow night. RL is kind of busy right now. If anyone else wants to jump in, feel free. I'm going to shoot for wireless next, but I don't mind someone stepping on my toes.

I'm thinking that maybe things with 'wifi' and 'wlan' in them might be helpful... Maybe even in the init.desirec.rc that doesn't currently exist.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Busphan:
I'd like to give this a go too. I really don't have any experience though.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Hey, join the fun. Personally, I'm using the following tools -

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=633246

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=695701&highlight=[TOOL]

and Android Builder (link in sig)

They CAN BE somewhat of a crutch, so it's still good to dig around and learn what's going on. If you want to tackle something, feel free. Or if you want to start from the beginning, just follow along, or whatever - that's great. I'll be glad to answer any questions that I can. I just started looking at Android in March, myself...
[Droid Eris Android Development] PimpShit420:
This sound like an aweseom idea and I want to learn along with you.....First question In your last post, first link, is for linux systems do you know f an equilvent windows version?
[Droid Eris Android Development] PimpShit420:
nm i read further and got my awnser
[Droid Eris Android Development] Sjflowerhorn:
ugh son be back testing a rom for an hour or so ill let you know what worked and what failed lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
I got sidetracked away from wireless and attempted to get su/superuser to work. My goal is to do as much of this 'manually' as possible. In fact, it's very tempting to go back and do the all of the steps again without the dsixda's kitchen and Android Builder. There will still be some tools and scripts involved though.

For anyone else trying to learn their way around Android ROMs, I've found WinMerge (http://winmerge.org/) and N-Way Folder Diff (http://sourceforge.net/projects/n-wayfolderdiff/) to be helpful. It's kind of neat to take each new build of a ROM and compare it with the previous build and what was in the changelog as being fixed. You can learn a lot that way.

Also, for some light reading (ha!), there are several Google Groups that I try to keep up with...

android-porting

Android Building

android-platform

Android Developers

android-ndk

Android Linux Kernel Development

It's a lot to read, and much of it is still over my head. However, it gets a little easier to understand every day that I read...

There should be an update this weekend of some sort. I keep adding to the list of things that need to be fixed, btw.

Rock on!
[Droid Eris Android Development] PimpShit420:
Wow this is alot to take in so quick but I to am learning it. It is getting easier day by day and I also find that is makes everything more intersting seeing how some of these tings work
[Droid Eris Android Development] __arock__:
Don't think I'll be of much help, at least for a while, but I will def be following this thread and reading up on the posted info. gnarlyc, you are awesome for coming up with this idea.

I'm in! I've been doing a lot of reading on building roms for a while now, I was just waiting for root.

[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Ok, so just for fun... I went off on another tangent. I grabbed the 2.6.29 kernel source from kernel.org and the 2.6.29 Eris kernel source from HTC. Then, I compared the differences.

Interesting stuff. Well, for a phone geek anyway.

Some confusing stuff too, but I didn't expect to understand it all anytime soon. It takes time.

Hello to all,

Since I mean my first Slider with everything which to it belonged, tinkered itself (Sliderbox and - bar). Since it much work was genuinly I the things gladly with you would divide. If it pleases at all someone. Stop is my taste.

The things, those once as Manilapackete and once as Caps made. The Slidercap contains only the symbol for the same. Bar and box separately install. Is more flexiebler and it comes with the Deinstallation not to conflicts, like it often happens to me in earlier times. There I to the installed Slider for the foils - after bar installs. There the files for it (in black stop) available were it however already, cannot the program any longer completely distant.

Therefore I have the symbol to separate box and bar made. Then everyone can look, for which like it.

Slider - boxes and - bar are in Post2.

Starting symbol (Post3) are only for WM 6.5.x, for the start - symbol left down.

Also I have a little graphics for the music player (the Slider it does not give from me. It is from Kurt Willems from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=674378 ) and also some soft bar symbol. (Post4)

And last but not least, my first sun and moon. (post5)

About criticism and feedback of you I would be content.

Special thanks go to Franwella, he show me the first steps to provide a Slider.

Spezial Thanks also to MR. Red Card, he lern me much to work whit Graphik-Programms

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] soosoolhastam:
whats the nice theme you have. i know you changed the start button graphic to something else. but that theme itself.. what is it?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Bonito77:
Which exact you mean with theme my friend.;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] soosoolhastam:
im talking about the the bottom start bar.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Bonito77:
When you mean the softkaybar from the Screen in Post1, their I used an other Rom. Now look like as down in the Screen. I only made the buttoms transparency.

When I doesn't understand your question correctly, please post me a picture and marker the thing you mean.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] soosoolhastam:
Awesome Theme

whats the .tsk file you use that you can select from the second picture i attached. I know the one you have isn't on the list in that picture. I just wanted to make sure you get what i meant when i said theme. I love the start bar that i placed a red box around from your screenshot. I was wandering where you got it or how you made it. Thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Bonito77:
Aaah, now i know:D. i used the EnergyROM2008 and the .cab in the attachment.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ToddeSwe:
Startbuttons i like :)

Hi!

Realy liked your startbuttons, but can you please tell me wich file to replace in windows folder...? Just so i know how to rename the file i want to copy over to my device.

Thanks in advanced:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Bonito77:
You only take the classicblue_bubble_flag.png from the folder you want and copy this into the widows folder. It overwrite the Original from self. When you kept the Original, first copy it from Win.-folder on your SD-Card.

I hope I can help you.;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Bonito77:
@ToddeSwe, Now I see in your Sig that you use an WM6.5 Rom. The Startbutton only works on WM6.5.x. But I write this in the heading of Post3.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ToddeSwe:
I'm confused, must i change the windows theme then to get the right startbutton? I'm using the ArtemisGreenBlack theme, and that theme must have another name... right?

Sorry, have not had the time to change it, now it's more correct :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Bonito77:
Ah, you use a Theme. There some files can have other names. When you copy my .png file, then the Button doesn't change, right? Then the only way to find out the name of the file you need, is to open the .cab on your PC, extract the files and look for the new name of the file. Or you ask the Creator of the Theme how the filename now call.

P.s. But in the Theme is a Startbutton or not?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ToddeSwe:
Yes i've found it, but this one has an pressed version as well, so i don't think i can use your nice button :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] donwhann:
hi there, just installed the blue slider.....awesome work mate !!!. i already had the blue box you made for me a while ago. one thing, is there a reason why my footprints icon hasnt skinned..?

please ignore this...

sorry, wrong thread......
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] soosoolhastam:
Change Start symbol back to original

Ive changed the startsymbol but i cannot revert back to what it originally was.(attachment) How can i do that man?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Bonito77:
First I have to know on which way you changed it. With .cab install or put the .png byself into Windows?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Awassenaar:
Wow Boris,

Just saw this today! Didn't know you made all this... Really like the suns and moons, because I have some kind of space thing going on on my homescreen :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Bonito77:
oh, now i'm a lit bit sad you never checked the threads in my sig. lol :D

but i'm glad you like this old stuff. thats my first things i made for me and of course for all the guys (and girls) here.

grtz and a good night anne ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Awassenaar:
Ohh don't be sad! I don't own an HD2 so untill I found out about the nice themes and forelayers you have here I never checked the HD2 threads.. Will check your sig right now! :p

But I did find you sms skins, and like them a lot! Now I'm using the crinkled paper skin :D

Goodnight Boris

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Awassenaar:
Right now that is the same for me! I have a Sony Ericsson, with a Sense ROM and I have mostly Leo apps installed :D That's what I love about XDA
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Kameirus:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Kameirus:
wow ok i feel like a .......

Thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Bonito77:
Hey Kam,

I'm glad to see that this realy old stuff (my first steps with graphics) even today finds usage.:)

Hope it works for you, because after some Roms I have certify that some of the icons must renamend. But its conditioned from Rom.

Grtz B.;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Kameirus:
worked great just had to uninstall it

cause im working on something on the team
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Bonito77:
Thats cool to hear. Yes it needs much time but makes also much fun I think.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Kameirus:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Bonito77:

The new xda app is out in the market place :)
[Android Apps and Games] sensi_:
ahh is this new? or u mean an update?

only just got my android and have got this, got the .apk from somewhere.

how easy/hard is this to code? as i would like to create one for my vbulletin forum

any advice?

Where do we report bugs? There is a bug adding a forum as a favorite, it adds the forum below it.

Nah. Looks like the firmware for their device called the v5, running android, and it's their third release of our, ie v3

At february too, I am sceptical :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] alsheron:
Hot damn! I was hoping for some android 3.0 goodness (info). Crazy isn't it (killer4o), posting a link to a potential Android 3.0 pot of info on an Android dev forum? Makes no HTC sense....
[Hero, G2 Touch General] killer4o:
Makes no sense posting a link to a Chinese website asking a question whether those guys uploaded android 3 in February. I am pretty sure the devs here will know way earlier than you all the details about the upcoming android 3 OS without having you post every single link you can find using google that contains the words "android 3".
