[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hamedpc007:
hi everybody !

a month age i decided to compile a new rom for my Galaxy S absolutely from AOSP source ( branch 2.2.1_r1 ) after some compile-time problem and many painful steps to resolve ,eventually the rom successfully built and can boot it up flawlessly on emulator.

i create a nandroid backup of current rom and installed the compiled one. but i am facing new problem :

1- the phone successfully boots but after short while screen began

flicking several time and the phone go in deep sleep and never wakeup

( power button or menu button does not do any thing )

2- touch screen works only for some second that I can unlock the

phone

3- there is no network available

4- I have downloaded samsung opesource package for GT-I9000. it

contains a folder named 'platform' but when i merge these files to

AOSP , the compile process stops and fails again. if there any one can

help me which files from samsung source should i merge and how ? if

you now the answer and dont have spare time then some internet link or

online document is really useful .i have no problem studding and

reading and searching ;) . reaching to target is my only hope .

I am really disappointed why there is not a good and complete step2step tutorial to compile an AOSP rom for galaxy s (GT-I9000) !! :confused:

such docs is available for phones like dell streak , desire , dream , magic , .... . i really want to to active these aspect on XDA forum and with help of all you ( mods and masters ) try to create such tutorial that any one in world ;) can use to refer . i think XDA is the only reference on net to collect and create such help and document. please help me and leave PM or comment to agree ot disagree and from where can i start ?!! thank in advanced .

edit :

there is a google groups post that i send my question in Android-platform . if you prefer please join this group and active that post to ask any question related to 'galaxy s compile from source ' .

Jackal, try using the gps & gpsx logger (free app) in the marketplace. Make sure the phone has a direct view of the sky, and that your data connection is on, for a faster lock. If you dont have a dataconnection, it can take 5~10 mins for a lock.
[HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JaCkaL_Sense:
U are right dear ,

it is functioning in a very fine way now , wonderful device ,

but one thing is still in my mind , if u get maps full application downloaded to

hd7 we do not need internet connection as long as device is already equipped

with internal gps

Hello,

I recentley got a HD7 from o2 with a pay as you go sim because i cant get the HD7 from Orange (my network)

Now I have the phone I have found O2 have Sim locked it so I cannot use my Orange sim in it. I have looked all through XDA developers to see if other people had the same problem.

A lot of people have used http://www.htcimeiunlock.com/htc-hd7-unlock I have been on this site every day for 2 weeks and they cannnot find an unlock code for my ime number.

I have used a cople of other unlock websites i found on google but they all say they cant find the unlock code.

Dose any one have any suggestions? If not dose any one want a HD7 locked to o2? :o
[HD7 General] tempest2112:
Sounds tough for you, I had mine unlocked from there within 5 minutes and its an 02 pay as you go, using http://www.htcimeiunlock.com/htc-hd7-unlock.
[HD7 General] Evil Disco Guy:
Yeah I bought an HD7 at the weekend, locked to O2 with the intention of getting it unlocked. First person I tried came back saying they couldn't find an unlock code. Trying again with someone else who promises they use the newest database (costs more) but it's been nearly twenty four hours without anything so I'm guessing no luck again.

The IMEI checker on htcimeiunlock.com says a code isn't in the database so I don't know what to do either. When I check price and availabilty on unlock-now.com it takes me to their order page and costs €35.00 but I haven't really seen them before so not sure if they're legit. HTCCode are around the same price but I've heard quite a few horror stories, so a bit put off now.
[HD7 General] Evil Disco Guy:
And sure enough, another refund due to a lack of code. Going to ring O2 directly, when I asked instore I mentioned that I wasn't on O2 and so couldn't use the web form, so he told me to ring instead.

EDIT: Big fat nope, only after 12 months.
[HD7 General] Evil Disco Guy:
Just used the Live Support feature on the HTCCode website and got a quick response. My phone isn't in the database yet but it should be updated within a fortnight. Took my details to get back to me when that happens.

Looks like I'm playing the waiting game sadly.

Is there a method or app that will allow a GTab/VEGAn 5.1 to view/connect via WiFi/LAN (on dock) a Windows network? Posting here might be a stretch unless an app exists. Might be better suited for Development group if so.

Searched threads and found very little (if anything) on this for GTabs (some for phones tho). Perhaps a solution doesn't exist---yet. Or I am showing my android ignorance! :rolleyes:

I find using the cifs support in Clemsyn's kernel with the free CifsManager app provides the best integration with windows shares.

This allows you to map, or mount, your network shares as folders on the tablet, giving apps that do not understand UNC and such, access to network resources they would not otherwise have...
[Nook Color General] Eienkei:
I got my NookColor a couple of days ago & yesterday made SD Card out of HC image v4, my NC has a Easel Industriel in Storm which has magnet mechanism.

I had connected the Nook many times to my Laptop to tranfer files & etc.

The only problem I had was when I charged the Nook using wall charger, the touch screen had problems.

This time, when I connected the Nook Color while I was on Honeycomb, windows went nuts & everything froze except the mouse pointer, I turned the laptop off & when I switched it on, but it gave me HDD error.

I tried to recover data but everything on C was somehow destroyed so bad I couldn't even format the whole hard drive.

I had to replace my HDD & lost lots of data, the question is, how something like this can happen? What's the cause? I really don't want to experience the same thing again!

Was it the covers magnets which interfered with HDD? Was it HC? or?!
[Nook Color General] bedoig:
Random coincidence.
[Nook Color General] hacku:
I agree...one thing has nothing to do with the other, so it sounds like your HDD was on it's way out already, and it just happened to go out while you had your NOOK connected.

Try a different firmware. Had the same issue when flashing a 2.1fw on an already 2.2 custom rom. Try a US 2.2 jpy. You can get any galaxy s firmware from (www samfirmware com).
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Akeeef2k6:
thank you for the quick reply.

I am not 100% exactly sure if my procedure is right. Here is what I do:

1. Put your phone to download mode (hold down: volume down, home key, power)

2. Do not plug in your phone yet.

3. Start Odin3

4. Tick "Re-Partition", and also check that "Auto Reboot" and "F. Reset Time" have been ticked.

5. Click "PIT" button and select s1_odin_20100512.pit file.

6. Now, plug in the phone and wait until Odin finds it.

7. Click "Start" button... <Firmware update start...> <Get PIT for mapping...> appear. The phone will turn off and the screen indicates "Reset". Wait until Odin indicates "Pass".

8. Plug out your phone, remove the battery, put it back in and put phone to download mode again.

9. Click "Reset" button in Odin and untick "Re-Partition" box.

10. Do not select PIT file again. Just leave it empty.

11. I select here the downloaded firmware (2.2.1) in PDA. Everything else is blank (PHONE and CSC)

12. Phone installs and Odin shows pass

Now, the phone does not boot but goes into system recovery 3e showing an error message E: Cant mount /dev/block/st110

E: copy_dbdata_media:Cant mount DBDATA

After I select "reboot system now" the phone boots but gets stuck right after the Samsung logo disappears. then I only see a black screen and the vibration.

What am I doing wrong here?

thank you I really appreciate it!!

[Fascinate General] Toddw:
Well I finally did it last night. I had tried many ROM/kernel combinations to get the best performance with the longest battery life. I love the looks of the Super Dark DJ05 ROM but I couldn't get a kernel to go with it to give me great battery life. I'd take it off charge about 6:30 am and it would get down to 30% usually by 12:00. I have been rooted for about a month and have been reading about voodoo alot. I finally downloaded a StupidFast voodoo kernel. It went perfectly and the battery life seems to be better. My question is should I run SetCPU and if so what settings should I try? Any other kernels I should try also? Can I just flash a new voodoo kernel over the current one? I've read that you can and I've read you've got to disable the lagfix before reflashing a kernel.
[Fascinate General] Toddw:
I have found a combination for my phone, may not work on all phones. I am rooted, running voodoo, running jt's 1134 voodoo kernel on the Super Dark ROM. I was looking for performance with long bettery life. I flashed the kernel about 5 hours ago and I had 62% battery. Now I'm only down to 48% after internet, recording video at a birthday party, and a few calls. That's much better than any other setup, voodoo or not. I'm also running SetCPU set at 1000/200 with screen off profile set at 400/200 to hopefully save bettery life when it's asleep. FWIW it's scoring 1688 quadrant. What does everyone think? Thanks for the insight.
[Fascinate General] finakechi:
TBH with you I have been wanting to try out voodoo myself but I am still not entirely sure what it is. I know it is a different type of kernel, but thats about it.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ForeverNoob:
Hello,

Today I've flashed MAGLDR+CWM and then flashed Android. All worked perfectly until I decided to flash another build and tried to copy the ZIP package to my SD card, which I couldn't. When booting to MAGLDR usb mass storage option the computer "sees" the SD, but as soon as file copy starts the computer "loses" the SD and MAGLDR freezes (had to take battery out). When I boot the build I flashed, connect USB cable and select USB Mass storage, the computer sees the drive but claims there's no disk in it. What is wrong here?

TIA
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ClydeB1:
Don't use magldr mass storage, it has bugs. Boot into cwm, go to mounts and storage and select mount usb storage. Works perfectly.

Anyway, the best is to just slot your SD in a card reader.

[EVO 4G General] matt2053:
What I can't figure out is why they can blatantly flaunt the GPL but still pimp their **** on XDA.
[EVO 4G General] TheMemphisE:
This is exactly right. If they are in violation of the gpl, then they should not be able to distribute. However, it is possible that they have proprietary code that does not conflict with the gpl.

I don't know which of these is true, though. It sure looks cool, but if they are shirking their responsibility to FOSS then then is a problem.
[EVO 4G General] sirajperson:
I am not in disagreement with them having their own proprietary code, but they do need to follow the agreement within the GPL. If you download cyanogen, you have to download gapps separately because gapps has closed source programs. The GPL requires that you leave the open source code open source and the proprietary distributed separately. There are no such repositories containing anything from this rom. I am not into conspiracies or anything, but rules are rules.
[EVO 4G General] wuclan48:
Prepare for the same pro SBC trolls to invade your thread.

Yes, it does raise some questions and thank you for bringing the topic up. I don't use that rom but until there is some clarification from the developers, xda or both I will steer clear. Hopefully that kind of response from users like myself will get some movement on the issue.

What's XDA's official view on GPL violations?

Didn't Feeyo of the Cronos Project get banned from XDA and all his ROM's removed, for GPL violation?

By the way I think Android is on Apache licence, only the kernel is on GPL2, but MIUI team has released kernel sources in the past as far as I know. So I don't know for sure if there is actually a violation here.
[EVO 4G General] HondaCop:
Oh boy, here we go again. First SBC, now MIUI. Considering this site promotes rooting phones and voiding warranties, there sure is a ton of hypocricy around here. Go ahead, flame away.

Btw, it does apply to just the kernel. if not, pretty much every rom needs to be taken down. None of them have a link to source.

[EVO 4G General] aimbdd:

the ports are here : http://miui-dev.com/
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
1. MIUI doesn't distribute on XDA. Someone else who is not part of their dev group does and it's a port that's, again, not part of the official MIUI group.

2. They don't sell MIUI so who cares? And anyway, I'm no whiz with licensing but I'd have to assume that they are not obligated to release anything they made themselves which is probably exactly what the OP wants. Want all the source to all the cool features they added? Too bad, build it yourself. Like HTC with Sense, they are not obligated to release that source. Might as well start from where they did - AOSP.

3. They're in China. Google gave up on them so good luck get any cooperation.

yea bro, good luck with that. sounds like an awesome idea.
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
Yeah... they don't have to release anything they created....
[EVO 4G General] wywywywy:
If and only if they are basing their code on something that has a licence which requires so, then they should. If the Linux developers (one of the best OSes) didn't release and share their code they worked on for months/years, you wouldn't even have Android to start with.
[EVO 4G General] wywywywy:
I can read Chinese. Will go to their forums and check...

Can't access it from work, as it is blocked for being a "malware website" :(
[EVO 4G General] aimbdd:
Lol. But even so... the version we use for the evo complies with the open licenses. Yeah.. well if everything was! "Open source" no one would make any money....

And atleast they aren't charging anyone for it.
[EVO 4G General] zone23:
I agree MIUI should release the source. People ***** when HTC doesn't release the source so why is it ok for MIUI. XDA has no responsibly to police this. Its Googles problem if they so choose.

edit:

Removed person shot just wasn't necessary. I apologize Honda Cop.
[EVO 4G General] HondaCop:
Looks like someone's got a man crush on me.

Anyways, why does MIUI need to release their source code if it's proprietary? Yes, I would love them to release it and have the great devs at XDA improve it, but if it's their code, they have the right not to release it. Don't confuse AOSP code with proprietary code.

wtf htc why no source for sense?

Our phone contains the most sensitive data that we have!!! As such I would expect the developers of SENSE to include the rest of us in the development process not just for the outstanding improvement of having more people work on a project, but to allow the code of something that is at the center of our private information to be reviewed by the people using it. Is there anyone esle that is concerned about this?

everybody stop using anything except pure aosp/cm roms!!!!!!
