As long as the files replaced, it won't matter. Using root explorer to replace system files is the same as using adb push

Another issue I've found, that is not on the front page, is sending an SMS message that you type at once time but is split into two messages.

When sending it seems it sent fine, but when received it becomes a garbled mess of characters like "#$&*^*"
[Epic 4G Android Development] spitefulrain:
As far as I know from CM6, that is an MMS problem. Solution is you can split texts automatically every 160 characters using an option in the messaging app.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bricky23:
Use Handcent or Go sms, from the market. Its a sprint thing.

Yup thats 100% a sprint thing. ALL Sprint phone's have a 160char limit on txt messaging.

Didn't work for me either

Btw.... I was trying the cycamara app and it doesn't crash but can't take pictures and display a black screen .... but why does the one built in cm7 crash and the cycamara doesn't?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Mort3987:
I just deleted my entire android folder and re-synced my build environment and finished a build earlier tonight. I was surprised to notice that gps locked on in only a few seconds.. I made sure to turn off network location and made sure that wasn't the reason. So whatever was changed recently has made the gps work.. for me at least.
[Epic 4G Android Development] anfrany:
Any chance you'd share your build, others can see if gps works?
[Epic 4G Android Development] soundman1024:
This is progress that I am very excited to hear about!! I'm looking forward to the next build when it is ready for the world.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Mort3987:
Sure, let me upload it so you guys can try it out.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
Cool thanks for sharing
[Epic 4G Android Development] Mort3987:
I'll go through what I did when I flashed, in case there's something in the process that made gps work. I Odined back to stock EC05, used one click cwm3, let the phone reboot, got a gps lock. Then I shut down the phone and held vol down, camera and power to get into cwm, let that run through the conversion to ext4, then flashed the alpha4 file and gapps. I will say that a lot of the files from the OP's alpha4 are missing from this build so be prepared for that. Also, I've found that Cyanogenmod settings crash when I try it.

[Epic 4G Android Development] soundman1024:
Just flashed this ROM. Got a lock pretty quickly in GPS Status! It's showing I'm fixed to 8 out of 9 satellites with error of 6 meters! Maps is working similarly well. Fantastic work to all involved! In addition this is the first CM build that has had my SD card for quite a while. (Yes, I realise there is an ADB fix for that.) Very encouraging to see progress. :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:

That one worked thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] maldito.boss:
So if it is a full rom why is only 60+ MB?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Skimp Killah:
That sprint nascar app takes up a lot of space
[Epic 4G Android Development] epic4GEE:
Mort said a lot of the files from the OP have been removed from his build.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Mort3987:
It doesn't have a lot of the apk's that the rom in the OP has. I replaced the system folder in the original zip with the system folder from what I had compiled. So, some of the theming apks and a few others are missing as they weren't included in what I had compiled.
[Epic 4G Android Development] maldito.boss:
And its 2.3.4 nice .... to bad we dont have camaras working
[Epic 4G Android Development] DCRocks:
Have there been any changes to what does/does not work from the list in the OP?
[Epic 4G Android Development] amirite:
No, in fact more things will be broken. It is merely a version of the ROM with GPS working, for testing purposes. He explained this already.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DCRocks:
cool, thanks!

Great news! Can't wait for more advances!
[Epic 4G Android Development] stir fry a lot:
ooh la la!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Phasma343:
Alot of it may not apply, but if it even gets one small thing working it is worth digging through.

What I found interesting was when I pulled down the crespo4g repository from the AOSP code today there aren't too many modifications from base code line, just references to the proprietary files from the Nexus S 4g :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] BrianDigital:
looks good, cant wait to get my girls epic on something like cm7
[Epic 4G Android Development] SINNN:
please... Some of us really want 4g. Dont ban!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
I would rather they get the camera to work first over 4g
[Epic 4G Android Development] professoroak:
Yea, same with GPS. Can't do my foursquare checkins without it! :(

Plus 3G is pretty reliable for me. 4G occasionally quickly goes in and out of service even when I have full 4G service and I'm not moving... Not sure if it's the midNIGHT rom or 4G itself.
[Epic 4G Android Development] anfrany:
I don't suppose anyone from the team would be willing to give input on this, is it a fluke or is GPS functioning now?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Decad3nce:
GPS has worked in all of my latest builds so its not a fluke. But it does bring up other bugs
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
What other bugs have u guys worked out if u dont mind me asking?
[Epic 4G Android Development] maldito.boss:
Sorry for my ignorance ....but is there any differents with captivate camara and the one for the epic ...I ask this cuz the had both front and back cam working already ...

Edit. They even have the nexus s sourse and kernel working with..... wonder why those two things doesnt help us at all?
[Epic 4G Android Development] || Acer ||:
Unfortunately there is. Our phone has an LED Flash which makes our camera options a bit different. Thanks for your consideration, though. :)

I want 4g bad. Why? Cuz where I'm at, I get on average 6 to 8 megs connection. Pretty much 1 1/3 megabyte a second download. Makes my 70 kilobytes a second 3g sux sweaty salty nuts. Hehe.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
So I had a question. Are u guys still on 2.3.3 or are u guys working on 2.3.4. And is there any difference between them?
[Epic 4G Android Development] pdub42:
really you get that high of speeds??? i get at most 2megs usually just over 1 a second, guess our 4g sucks.

btw cm7 is amazing so far great work guys!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Phasma343:
Honestly, what do you do on a phone with that kind of connection? Running bittorrent on your phone? streaming HD porn?

2.3.4 is what has been pushed down in the repositories. Check the android changelog for changes made in 2.3.4

I get pretty quick 3g speeds anyways. Nothing worth wasting my battery on 4g for.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
O just wanted to also give u feedback on ur kernel. Its really stable and smooth no issues at all. So do u just build kernels or are u helping with the actual rom also?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Phasma343:
It was just a build I did randomly from the dev teams source tree... I am not actually a dev for this.

Glad it is working well for you.
[Epic 4G Android Development] nullghost:
We're in the middle of a pretty big change right now, so we kindly ask for your patience.

Long story:

We're only putting minimal effort into the current .32-based CM7 builds. We're starting to shift our focus into building CM7 based on the .35 NS kernel and sources provided by team hacksung. Hacksung is a new repository done by the cmsgs people, but it's very close to being merged into CM. Owners of GSM sgs devices should be somewhat aware of the hacksung cm7 builds.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:

[Epic 4G Android Development] hussmanne:

[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Thread cleaned. Please no trolling. Thank you.
[Epic 4G Android Development] aestil:
You could use stock, or another ROM which supports 4G.

I think the OP to this thread makes it pretty clear that the people donating their time to this project have put 4G as a last priority. For reasons which almost everyone should be able to understand.

Clearly 4G is important to you. Great, that's fine. Go use a ROM that has 4G, or continue to use this one, but don't complain about this ROM not having it.

emphasis mine.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] PRIdEVisions:
hey guys,

yes i used the search button, but yet havent found any solution on this particular problem :

When i want to charge the phone to 100% in android, ill turn the phone off and plug the charger in.

what happens next is that the phone boots up while it was off..

how can i prevent this auto boot whenever i plug in my charger ?

in other words : turn phone off // Plug in charger // Phone turns on and boots android.

i just want to be able to charge whenever the phone is turned off.. (because i have to calibrate the battery again for android, it only charges like 50%)

any ideas ?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
I don't think you can.

Because that problem is related to magldr, It auto boots whenever connected to charger .

:)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] klusek1985:
I have the same issue ;)

For now everybody says that can't be fixed.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mattfmartin:
Use cLK instead of magldr. It has that feature in it. Search for Cedesmith's cLK thread. I'm using it. 10 times better than magldr. Also it boots up like a native android phone. No 1.2.3.4.5.6 go go go bull shoot

[HTC Inspire 4G] enjoiracin:
Hey currently I am using this ROM:

Android Revolution 4G 4.0 β 2 | Gingerbread & New HTC Sense 2.1 | Android 2.3.2

This ROM is good and all...but is a little buggy from what I can tell. It tends to lag and slow down the phone a lot. Apps force close now and then. It is not a smooth ROM is the bottom line.

So I am looking for a new ROM to try out but I wanted some opinions before I do a clean wipe on my phone.

I am currently looking at the LeeDroid ROM...

How is this ROM?

Does it have any major or minor problems?

Any other ROMs that you want to recommend would be great, but please give some details on why you like it.

I am basically looking for a FAST and CLEAN ROM. :)

Thanks!
[HTC Inspire 4G] mudknot2005:
Lets just put it this way leedroid not only builds roms, but custom kernels. Including the kernel used in CoreDroid v3.2... I think that alone says enough..
[Windows Phone 7 General] Ut0p1a:
Ok, I recently bought a used iPad from a developer, he is upgrading to iPad2.

Anyway, I have been playing with the iPad for the last couple days, and didn't touch my Windows Phone 7 until just now.

I don't know why fanbois are bragging about iOS. I just couldn't believe how smooth the aesthetic of Windows Phone 7 is. I was actually bored with it, and think I'll sell the iPad on craigslist. I wish Microsoft would do Windows Phone 7 slate...it would so awesome!
[Windows Phone 7 General] The Gate Keeper:
there is a lot of strong rumours going on about Windows 8 (that's right, continuation of Windows 7, not Windows Phone 7) being very tablet focused as well. And amoung those rumours are that they might take a few aspects of Windows Phone 7, but not sure at this stage. And there is also a rumour that they'll show off Windows 8's UI at the All things D confrence in June.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
I'm no longer working on this. I've tried, failed, and moved on. It seems that some other folks have had some success. Maybe they will continue on. Between work, family, college, etc. it's obvious that I'm getting nothing done on this.

This is an attempt at taking the work being done for the heroc here - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=911828 and porting it to the Eris.

Honestly, I know enough to be dangerous and that's about it. The HeroC (sobe and those thanked in the post linked to above) folks and those upstream from there are doing most of the work. So, thank you to them.

If anyone would like to help, please do. That's the main reason that I'm posting this now. The kernel doesn't even compile at this point, much less boot. (It's hard to boot something that doesn't exist. :) )

Source: https://github.com/gnarlyc/cm-kernel

So far, here's what I've done.

1) forked sobe's repo

2) copied the heroc board files, renamed the copies to *desirec*, and changed all instances of HEROC to DESIREC and heroc to desirec inside the files

3) started removing heroc touchscreen stuff and adding desirec touchscreen stuff

Why am I doing this?

1) learn more about kernels

2) use some that programming knowledge that I'm supposedly learning in class

3) get an updated kernel for the Eris

[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
My final exam is on Wednesday of next week. So, I can promise that I will put much more effort into after that. I can't promise to get it working, but I'll definitely put a lot more time in. As I said before, if anyone wants to jump in and help, feel free. There's already one other person (breber) helping, but I think he's been in the same boat as me. So... Hopefully, he'll be able to help more after classes are over too.
[Droid Eris Android Development] Hungry Man:
Kernel updates are pretty much the only updates I ever care about.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Just an update. This hasn't been worked on as much as I hoped. However, I've had help from breber. Actually, he's made much more progress than I did. The kernel not only compiles, but it boots too! As soon as we can get the touchscreen working, it might even be usable. :)

Here's the current source.

https://github.com/breber/cm-kernel

If anyone else wants to take a stab at it, feel free. Our time is somewhat limited.

I've played around with adding the capella 3602 stuff back in, but it didn't seem to help with the touchscreen issue. The TS is one of the few components that are different between the HeroC and Eris.
[Droid Eris Android Development] theboo7:
So your moving on from this?
[Droid Eris Android Development] neederishelp:
I may have missed it, but what is the reason for a different kernel?
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
No, I'm not moving on from this. I just have so much time to work on it. Between work, 'side' work, family, keeping the house up, working on Android apps, etc., there's only so much time that I can allocate for it. It's really interesting and good stuff, so I enjoy jumping into it when I can.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Speed? New features that the current kernels don't have? Geeky fun?

I never have taken the time to figure out the details of 'why', honestly. Maybe that would be more motivation though, so maybe I should.
[Droid Eris Android Development] theboo7:
any open apps? I love your work
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Nothing worth seeing yet, but I am actually working on one now. (Really, I am. Seriously. I'm not kidding. Right now, in fact. Like today.)

It's just an app with buttons that you can configure to send messages to a configured phone number. So... If I want to quickly let me wife know that I made it to work, I can just click on the "@work" button without having to open the MMS app, select her thread, and type anything. It's nothing special really. I'm mainly doing this one to get my head into app development. I've taken 4 courses in the last couple of years, but never really jumped into it and started DOING it.

[Droid Eris Android Development] mjgdroid:
was looking at some of the kernel stuff, what kernel is this 2.6.3? and the current standard eris is 2.6.29?
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
current: 2.6.29

'new': 2.6.35

In addition to breber's build, I've played around with the more current HeroC build from here --> https://github.com/TeamHeroC/heroc-kernel-2.6.35.

I've only done the work on my local machine, but I basically did this:

1) cloned that repo

2) copied the desirec board files and desirec_defconfig from breber's source

3) added the desirec stuff from arch/arm/mach-msm/Kconfig in breber's source

4) mucked around with the touchscreen drivers (HeroC TS != desirc TS)

The board files were mostly created by taking s0be's HeroC files, copying them, replacing HEROC with DESIREC, and replacing heroc with desirec. Nothing too spectacular really. I'm not sure what tweaks breber did from there, but it should mostly be in the commits.

You jumping in? That would be awesome. If someone can just spend the time on this, I have no doubt it will work out well.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjgdroid:
Working, testing
[Droid Eris Android Development] Stonent:
People ask me why I do things. Why do I collect computers, why do I just suddenly get the urge to do something like try to install NT 4 on a core i5 laptop, why did I try to port the gentoo build system to Solaris, why did I hunt down an ISO of apple A/UX and install it on a 33Mhz Quadra, (and also try build some current apps on SVR2) why did I buy an SGI indy and install IRIX on it?

I see us like the scientists of yesteryear. If I were born 100+ years ago you'd certainly find me one day laying dead in my lab because I gave myself radiation poisoning from decades of playing with isotopes.
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Awesome! I've made a few more attempts, but have only been able to spend a few minutes at a time and then I wind up starting over each time. lol

I did find there's another log '/proc/last_kmsg' that I had missed before. It's put there if the ram_console is enabled in the kernel.
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
Hey bud, I'm messing with this too. What source are you guys working from? Because the link is dead in the OP, so I grabbed the TeamHeroC desirec repo that Jaybob was working on I believe. I have it compiled, but no booty :( can't get a logcat either.

Can someone share their .config with me? I'm looking at YOU mjgdroid ;) :D

Was going to attempt .35 for ICS if I can get THIS .35 for GB working first. I do have a forked github of what I'm using desirec-kernel-2.6.35
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
:) Geek.

Ask them why they watch TV for 4 hours a day... Or play video games. Or whatever. We all have 24 hours per day to spend how we want (or need or think we need) to spend it. At least your time is being spent on something that has a good chance of making your time worth more to someone in the future (resume/skill building).
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
Yeah, this is the last one that I tried. It sounds like you did too.

https://github.com/wjb/desirec-kernel-2.6.35

The .config that's attached is the last one that I used.

Rock on man. It's good to see ya'll jumping in and taking care of this. (Slackers.)
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
Where's the attachment... slacker ;)
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:

[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
Nice edit lol :) thank you sir.
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjgdroid:
try this

Try this one... If it doesnt work, I am working on it still, also I would make sure the base 0x11200000 - HTC Droid Eris if you use mkbootimg to pack the kernel

mkbootimg --cmdline 'no_console_suspend=1 console=null' --kernel recovery-RA-eris-v1.6.2.img-kernel --ramdisk ramdisk-new.gz --base 0x11200000 -o new-recovery.img

Recovery-ra-eris can be any kernel.img this can be used to make edit boot.img
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
Yeah, with this .config it won't even compile. What toolchain are you using? I was using 4.4.3
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjgdroid:
I followed these instructinos http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Building_Kernel_from_source, then just cloned the git and ran

make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CCOMPILER -j`grep 'processor' /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l`
[Droid Eris Android Development] workshed:
You used the 4.4.0 toolchain, just so you know if anyone else happens to ask you ;)

I'll try that, seems weird you would use the 4.4.0 toolchain for the .35 kernel, but it's worth a try! :D
[Droid Eris Android Development] mjgdroid:
I have a message I am writing to you, I will also include a fwd to gnarlyc, didn want to let everyone in on the testing fun will be a bit I am eating right now

wow, you make a couple edits and try to recompile it takes like an hour just to compile the damn kernel, the f*#in thing is only a 2 megabyte file I mean seriously
[Droid Eris Android Development] gnarlyc:
I think that's a .config for the D1. Of course, I've been compiling D1 kernels too, so I might have mixed it up myself. :)

Oh, and I'm using the 4.3.1 toolchain. (At least this time around.)
[Droid Eris Android Development] disconnecktie:
What is different about this kernel you guys are developing? Is it just for melfas touchscreen support for the ice build?
