Anyone know if this line is needed in BoardConfig.mk in the device tree for desirec?

TARGET_RECOVERY_UI_LIB := librecovery_ui_desirec librecovery_ui_htc

This was causing a problem for me when trying to compile gingerbread. I figure this has something to do with the user interface when you login to the recovery partition, which I assume we would not want to include with our ROM. Now that I took that out it has been compiling for a while. Looks like there's a good chance it might finish this time.
[Droid Eris Android Development] icbeer:
IDK but I doubt it. Easiest thing to do would be to use a virtual machine and mount your existing partition from the virtual machine as an external drive (not the boot partition). Then you wouldn't need to copy your git repository anywhere. It will take about 2 hours to download Ubuntu 64-bit and set this up in VirtualBox.
[Droid Eris Android Development] icbeer:
Cool...I built gingerbread...Can't play with it till I get off work in a couple hours.

---

update: damn it boot loops my phone...
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Yeah, that sets the defaults, but you still have to press enter. It seems to me that we only need to initialize the repo once, right? I haven't tried it yet, but I bet you could comment that part out after it's done once.
[Droid Eris Android Development] icbeer:
Ever thought about putting the prompts at the beginning of the script before it does any work?
[Droid Eris Android Development] morrisdan:
Yes it's still happening.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
I could the others, but not those. Those are a result of the git initialization and not in the code of EasyDev itself. That's a good suggestion though.
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
Then just do what Conap suggested through gnar lol
[Droid Eris Android Development] morrisdan:
Ok guys sorry for the dumb question! Still can't get this sucker to work since something changed somewhere out in repo land. I don't understand how to do this change:

... Just edit: build/core/binary.mk:29 and remove the 'linux/'.

I found the binary.mk file and opened it but where is the linux/ change that needs to happen.

Is the real root of the problem that we need 64bit Ubuntu 10.10?
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
It's actually not 'linux' that needs to be removed. It's a variable called '$BUILD_OS' or something similar. If you find the line that looks like this one:

prebuilt/ndk/android-ndk-r4/$SOME_VARIABLE/platforms/android-8/arch-arm

And make it look like this:

prebuilt/ndk/android-ndk-r4/platforms/android-8/arch-arm

That should get you past that error. Now, you might have other errors later on in the compile process. Some people seem to be getting it to compile now, but I have not had any luck.
[Droid Eris Android Development] tokyomonster:
Got here by way of a Google search for that NDK error. If it helps, I was able to get past it by creating the linux directory (and copying the platforms directory into it). Since then, I seem to be building it properly now (for my Epic 4G), though this is my first Android build evar, so I'm not sure how smooth it's going, exactly.
[Droid Eris Android Development] ranjumathew:
Adding the linux dir works.

I tried the MK file change. It didn't work for Nvidia Harmony build. Quite a few c class definitions could not be found. Then created the linux directory and moved the platform directory as suggested by tokyomonster, and it seems to be working.
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
lol, I tried to tell gnar this would be easier ;)

guess my way works, too :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
On page 15 :rolleyes:...
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
That's the same thing that I did the first time around too. Either way should work, I would think. Obviously not. I wouldn't call copying the directory easier than edited the file, but I guess it depends on what you are comfortable with. But hey, whatever works is fine with me. I just want it to settle down and work right like it did before last Thursday.
[Droid Eris Android Development] morrisdan:
Tried the above and it made it past:

build/core/binary.mk:29: *** external/stlport: ndk version root doe...........

Now on to the next error:

/usr/include/gnu/stubs.h:7: fatal error: gnu/stubs-32.h: No such file or directory
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Conap made some changes to the vendor tree that seem to have worked around the issue. (I can get it build without modification now.) He also made a change that should keep the recovery folder from being created.

So... Work will commence on v6 soon. It might be next week (most likely), it might be this weekend. It just depends on how things go.
[Droid Eris Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Uh, THAT was fast. :) Thank you!
[Droid Eris Android Development] roirraW "edor" ehT:
This is what I get with v6. No Out folder. Yes, I have better things to do on Christmas Eve, but I'm multitasking. :D

Merry Christmas!

Ready to Roll My Own Again

Ok guys! I am ready to test when you have something.

Happy New Year!
[Droid Eris Android Development] lomenciad:
I'm new to this so be gentle...but I used Tazz's vanilla rom to test this so I can get an idea of how these things work and didn't really change anything. I then checked the scripts using the option provided in the menu. When I flashed the ROM, it went into a boot loop. Can anybody tell me why? I have a long way to go, but would love to learn to develop.
[Droid Eris Android Development] morrisdan:
Right now "Roll Your Own" is not working. Keep checking back as it was pretty darn cool when it was.
[Droid Eris Android Development] morrisdan:
Just a little something I noticed that on Dec 17th was the last of the nightlies at the Cyanogen site too. That is when "Roll Your Own" broke. I bet when Cyanogen gets their stuff cleaned up we'll be back up and running. With a little tweaking I am sure.
[Droid Eris Android Development] lomenciad:
Looking forward to it, although now I have dropped my phone and it's making this horrible vibrating sound when somebody speaks to me...so now I will probably be taking it in to be replaced. Anybody know if they're still doing the Eris refurbs?
[Droid Eris Android Development] morrisdan:
Good time to get an Incredible. $100 bucks refurbed. Great phone especially when running Cyanogenmod. I'd get one if I could.
[Droid Eris Android Development] morrisdan:
EasyDev is working again. After deleting everything in the EasyDev directory and resynced everything it finished with no errors and worked great. I flashed and the phone booted with no problems. Thanks again.
[Droid Eris Android Development] lomenciad:
That's good news! I went to Verizon this morning and they replaced my Eris with another one, so I didn't even have to wait a day. Refurbs make me nervous but it seems good thus far, so I'm happy. Can't wait to try Roll Your Own again.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Yeah, I was going to say... Conap and Workshed made some changes a week or two ago, and EasyDev started working just fine again. It should be solid right now. That's why I haven't messed with it much in a bit. (Although, I do wipe my directory and re-run it a couple of times a week.) We'll get back to it eventually, but that will be to just add new stuff.
[Droid Eris Android Development] morrisdan:
I did a fresh install to Ubuntu 10.10 and when I run easydev it hangs on the java install asking for me to agree to the license. I for the life of me cannot figure out what to do in that window. Tried scrolling to the bottom then hit return. Typed the <OK> and no luck either so I had to cancel which puts it into a real tailspin and had to start over. From what I remember I have to install sun-java6-jdk manually first then run easydev unless you know how to get past that window.
[Nook Color General] BertoJG:
I know by default the stock rom doesn't support bluetooth, but is the hardware actually onboard and disabled, or not there at all?
[Nook Color General] French.:
I am wondering this as well...it would open up a lot of possibilities for the nook, such as a bluetooth keyboard...or even using it for Skype with a bluetooth headset...
[Nook Color General] occip:
BT reference in the B&N kernel sources

Hi,

I think it could be enable

In the kernel sources we can notice this :

gpio_direction_output(WL127X_BTEN_GPIO, 1);

Maybe it is the GPIO for BT enable :)

We just have to dig for the UART connection.

I think it's just a problem of BT licence.

Cheers Occip
[Nook Color General] dayssincethedoor:
Is there even a bluetooth chip / antenna in the NookColor? I did not see any on the tear down.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqstatus0685:
I had a backup of my main ROM and did a nandroid backup. I booted into my main ROM and went into Root Explorer and renamed the backup to include UD (as in the ROM it was). I didn't take note of what it was before and now when I try to restore it gives me an error for MD5 Sums. I want to restore the ROM but don't know how to bypass it. Any ideas?

I renamed it because it's annoying trying to figure out which ROM you had when you did that backup.

**** I renamed the file but took out any spaces or special characters and it did the trick**** restoring to ud as we speak.
[Epic 4G General] bubby323:
Many of you are just now loading on dk28, now that its available publically. I would just like to know if anyone else is having trouble with MediaHub after the update. It says there's an update but there's no search results found when it redirects for the update, maybe its not meant to be out yet? :P
[Epic 4G General] lrosenman:
I suspect its the same update we needed with dk17. And we cant see it in the market because we dont have the right signature yet.
[EVO 4G Accessories] mitchellvii:
I bought two of these Chinese 3500 mah batteries for like $20 from eBay. They were charging like 1500 mah batteries and not lasting as long as they should. I figured, what the hell and tore one apart. Here is what I saw:

Not one solid battery but two stuck together with a metal strip connecting the two. Is this normal for this type of battery or is it supposed to be one solid piece? This looked very jerry-rigged to me.

The serial number on it is 044060A. Do your own research on that but I came up with just the fact it is a Chinese battery as one would expect. When I went to the site that sells them it did not indicate the mah of the battery. Very odd because how would you know what you are buying? It did confirm the 3.7 voltage however.

Here are pics. Please forgive my dirty fingernails as was putting down hardwood mulch in the garden all day :)
[EVO 4G Accessories] aronslusa:
There could be a wire connection somewhere in those two, but yea man... Sad to say it looks like you may have gotten a rip off.

Sorry man.

Any way you can take it somewhere to get it tested fully?
[EVO 4G Accessories] twoslo:
Wow thats ghetto!

Would you mind posting the link for the auction? Perhaps as awareness to the rest of the forum to not buy from.
[EVO 4G Accessories] mitchellvii:
Lol, can't recall what auction I bought these at.

However, I am pretty sure that all of these $5 3500 mah batteries are pretty much this.

My guess is they get all the seconds (defective) batteries from this manufacturer, solder them together, put a pretty package on em and sell em on eBay.
[EVO 4G Accessories] packersrule:
most large batteries are made this way, take apart your cordless drill battery and it will be smaller batteries linked together, hell take apart a 9 volt and see what is inside so it is not unusual to put batteries together like this
[EVO 4G Accessories] mitchellvii:
Ok, cool, didnt know. Was just wondering why it was performing like a 1200 mah battery and not a 3500.
[EVO 4G Accessories] montecristo1:
Wow. I have bought two 3500mAh batteries on ebay... so far so good. I can go for almost 2 days without charging with normal use. The stock battery had to be charge about 3 times a day.

The sellers (ebay) were: wanshopping and feitong2009. My only compliant was with feitong2009 which took a month to get the battery which was coming from Hong Kong. I normally get Hong Kong products in about 2 weeks.
[EVO 4G Accessories] mitchellvii:
How long does it take to fully charge your battery from empty? Divide minutes by 60 then multiply by 650 and you'll be close to your true mah.

Mitchell's EVO
[EVO 4G Accessories] OgremustCrush:
Nothing too surprising about it being two cells connected in parallel internally. If the internal cells are supposed to be 1500mah like stock then the battery should have a 3000mAh total capacity. Even if they kind of suck at 1200mah each, 2400mah is still a pretty big improvement over 1500mah.

Oh, and if you weren't getting the performance you were expecting from the battery, did you try wiping your battery stats? The percentage meter on the phone is going to act a bit wonky if it is calibrated for a much smaller battery. I've got one of these batteries and after wiping the stats it shows a definite improvement over the stock battery.
[EVO 4G Accessories] mitchellvii:
Did you wipe the battery starts when empty or full or does it matter?

[Galaxy S I9000 General] Synman:
This isn't necessarily constructive, but I've been connecting to my phone via Kies with Parallels 5/6 since I got it.

However, I do have to go bare metal to do a firmware flash.

[G Tablet General] smakcc:
I am running the latest tnt_lite 2.20 version. It installed fine last nite. I started it up today and very 2 minutes I get the (process com google.process.gapps) has stopped unexpectedly.

Any fixes on this?

:mad:
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Try a reflash, a user data wipe or a (clockworkmod) "Fix Permissions", in that order. In other words, try the next if the first one doesn't fix it.

If that still doesn't help, I'd try a clockworkmod SD card partition (keep in mind that this will wipe everything in /sdcard). These steps are mentioned in my first post in TnT Lite.
[G Tablet General] smakcc:
Roebeet, thanks again. It goods to get a timely response. I actually was able to go to recovery and start over again.
[G Tablet General] jwlehane:
does this still work with the latest Tntlite 3.1.4 with the kernel patch?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derik123derik123:
okay... so... today I was having issues with waking my evo... unlocking it... then going straight to the notification bar. it would freeze and i would have to turn off the screen and turn it back on.

I thought it was because of set cpu.. so i uninstalled that...

i was still getting the problem...

so i ran a touch screen test and..

everything in that red square is completely unresponsive.

I thought it was because of the rom/kernel I was running(myn rc4/ziggy's)

so i flashed cm6/neterachy

still the same thing.

what I need to know is; if this is software that can be fixed

or

if it is a hardware issue and if i need to take it to sprint?

if i need to to take it to sprint, I need to know if i need to unroot and how that works.

thank you for your quick replies.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caguirr4:
Yes if you are going to take it to Sprint for repairs then you need to unroot it. Try downloading the stuck ruu from the Evo wiki and flashing it back to stock. If that don't fix it then yeah take it to Sprint.
[Epic 4G General] fookxixi:
Just rooted my phone last week. Do I have to unroot it in order to get the OTA froyo update?

Don't want to play with the ROM right now. Thanks a lot.
[Epic 4G General] Kcarpenter:
Unroot for official or install a copy from the dev threads
[Epic 4G General] Electrofreak:
Short answer; no. You don't need to unroot to update OTA if you're running a stock build. The update will cause you to loose root though.
[Epic 4G General] vintage712:
Just to clarify for the sake of caution, I installed the leaked 2.2 update. Can I install the official build OTA or do I need to read up on Odin and manually update it? Thanks.
[Epic 4G General] jOEdAbOSS:
From what I've read, in order to flash the ota you have to have the stock recovery, so your options are to odin the modem and flash one of the roms through cwm -or- odin the entire .tar and then run the one-click-root.
[Epic 4G General] fookxixi:
Thanks. But I can use the one-click-root to root my phone again, right?
[Epic 4G General] daddymikey1975:
you could and it will work but why go through the extra work ??

use odin to update the modem (very easy) then go grab the ACS DK28 ROM. it's already rooted for you and it can be flashed via Clockwork .. very easy to do IMO.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestX0019:
Have posted this a number of places with no luck, including Rom Mgr thread:

If I flash a rom, set it up, then back up, Rom Mgr will not reboot to system. Goes to X and hangs. Sometimes after 3 tries or so it works or if I Restore the recent backup it works. Nothing consistent.

This started when I used amon 2.0 to increase ext to 1024mb for running eVil's desire rom. I had numerous issues where I could not even back up or restore. Seemed to always hang on android-secure part. Since then I reformatted sdcard with sdformatter, then used RM to create 1024 ext3. Flashed fresh eVil HD Gamma rom. All went well, but again after setting everything up and then tapping on reboot into system it hung again. It did not hang after initial flashing of rom and Circle Battery .zip. It booted into system fine.

When I got back to system and homescreens, I uninstalled RM and reinstalled. Although, I had done that before, but before I reformatted sdcard.

So, if this keeps up, only conclusion is RM even though I installed latest from Market, or this rom is messing things up. But, no mention of this issue anywhere else. I will try to boot into Clockwork thru Quick Boot (did that before also) to get to recovery and see how it goes.

Anyone have any idea for a solution to this nightmare, or had a similar experience. Running out of ideas. I am going to dl latest MIUI rom and see how it performs. And maybe load an earlier version of eVil's HD rom.

Thanks for any help, know this is weird,

Ken
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efrant:
Only thing I would suggest is to stop using ROM manager. There is really no need for it. Anything you can do in that, you can do either in recovery, or via a terminal.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gravufo:
+1

IMO, using an in-OS software to control the recovery is risky. I prefer having full control by manually flashing everything!
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestX0019:
Thanks guys for replying,

I can try reboot recovery thru terminal and Quick Boot. Although, it did it right after repartitioning with Amon_Ra. So, thought it might not be Rom Mgr.

Really thought the reformat of sdcard would do it. May have two issues. Next step is to get the latest eVil rom off and go back to previous version and/or repartition back to 512mb sdext.

Just Frustrated and Confused :confused:

Ken
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestX0019:
Just an update guys, since you were kind enough to reply to my post

I have kept the 1024 sdext made thru RM/CW removed both eVil's roms and relashed a fresh MIUI. No issues so far, time will tell. Will probably reflash a MicroMod rom too. Can't believe the larger HD rom was the cause. I loved the rom.

If I figure it out one way or the other I'll update. I can't even google my problem and find someone else with it.

Ken
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
id get rid of rom manager and clockwork. i flashed many many many things/times with amon ra recovery alone without issues, but all i hear are problems with rom manager/clockwork. i mean how easy is it to just go into recovery and flash? or just download something through the browser... my 2 cents :rolleyes:
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestX0019:
I've been doing this for 8 months and started with amon. Never had issues with either amon or rm/cw. Started using rm/cw just to try when doing a lot of nightlies with cyan.

But, I recently repartitioned to 1024 sdext3 with amon to run desire rom and amon hung too.

Still 1024 and no hanging with MIUI, using rm/cw. I don't have a preference one way or the other, as long as it works.

Don't think it is either amon or rm/cw, but the rom and my ext not working well together. Had no issues with the 512 ext and desire rom. But, I was getting windows warnings on errors on my sdcard and thought it time to reformat anyway.

Thanks for the advice all, I will run MIUI and Micro for awhile and maybe go back to 512 ext.

Did learn for anyone using Rom Mgr that it does now do 1024 ext3 partitioning. Many people thought, as I, it stopped at 512 and ext2. Maybe it use to. Verified the ext 3 thru Mini Partition Tool Wizard. Just FYI.

Ken
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestX0019:
Well,

I appreciate all the advice and help, I need it sometimes. But, seems (I hope) that I forgot to reboot into recovery after repartitioning. This tip came from Amon_RA and seems to have fixed my "reboot into system from recovery" issue.

I am now back on eVil's great HD Desire rom and 1024 sdext3 working great. :)

Thanks,

Ken

I'm in the process of attempting to package myself a rom; and I've come to an issue with the autosigner I found.

I can get it to successfully run; but when it signs my zip; it creates another folder, zips it then adds the original folder inside the zip..

So; inside the zip the setup is

META-INF

(romfoldername) [inside this is the contents of my rom]

Which; to my knowledge won't flash right..

Not seeing what i've done wrong o.o

And trolls that wanna bash me and say you don't need to sign; I wanna sign my zips so back off. kthx (:

..minimum order is 2.

All of the stuff on their site has that minimum order crap. I almost ordered a few parts from them until I checked my basket to find 5 of some, 3 of others, etc.

So, $80 and you resell the second one on ebay (that's the entire housing, though). If you only want the front face, without the ditizier/glass/etc; Get this for $15 (min. order 2, sell the second on ebay if you'd like) and call it a day!
