ps: sorry if it is already posted!
pps: it's kernel source of htc brand phone or not?

So, what now?
So what's the real benefit of that. Sorry for the noob-ish question...

WTF! Man this is fantastic, thanks!

You could always cook it your self!

This is only the binaries for the device. As cc said, the kernel you make yourself. What we need is the source for the proprietary parts to make things like bluetooth work on hero among other things

Quick, someone alert cyanogen!

Damn I spoke before I checked the link. Ya it's just the plain old HTC kernel source and useless proprietary binaries. I thought it was going to be their entire source for their Android build. Crap, move along people. Nothing to see here

You can extract all of the proprietary binaries from Hero using the extract script included in dream-open when you repo sync!

On the contrary, it has the source for their previously-proprietary kernel bits required for the canadian dream and magic devices, which means it should now be possible to build custom kernels for those devices for true and proper root/customization without the need for the death-spl. This is something that we've been fighting them for.

Just gave the source a quick look through. All of the default kernel settings/commits you would pull down from git are absent, that is, nothing is really set. I'm gonna cook it really quick without any fussing around with it to see what happens.

Man to bad they dont have the hero source as well but thats great.

The kernel is in the oven right now. I literally only changed two things for better performance, other than that this thing is stock.
Implemented CFQ and SLUB.

As CC stated previously, these can be extracted using the htc script from those devices. I didn't see anything that we couldn't already grab (IE libhtc_ril.so)

Hmmm should be interesting to see what results you find.

I cooked the kernel, wlan.ko, and modules. Those are all the files you should need. I'm at work right now, but when I'm home ill throw in a ramdisk to make the boot.img.
Does anyone here know how to mkbootimg boot.img so I don't have to make a million of them for every ROM out there? Or at least I'll make one for a cupcake ROM and one for a HERO ROM

Sorry for the total noobness but does this mean we can have .odex in builds now?

You might want to read some of the retardedly long root-rogers-dream threads. There is indeed a bunch of kernel code that we can't extract/reverse engineer without a huge effort. Those files pulled by the extract scripts are NOT RELATED. The difference is in the actual kernel.

I TAKE ABSOLUTELY NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR WHAT THIS DOES TO YOU PHONE.
I HAVE NOT TESTED IT.
I WHIPED IT UP ASAP SO YALL COULD FUX WITH IT.
I imagine you'll get partially through the boot process then it will loop. The again, maybe it will work. Who knows. Please provide me with a logcat if you try this.
You cannot flash the zip file. You cannot fastboot flash the boot.img-kernel. You must mkbootimg boot.img-kernel and ramdisk.cpio.gz to make boot.img.
wlan.ko is for wifi and goes in /system/lib/modules
modules.sqf go in /system/modules
Enjoy.

I'd test it if I knew what you were talking about Don't have ubuntu up and running, creating a VM right now using virtualbox. I have no idea how to compile mkbootimg though.

Wait, even he says "jac rom"i think he is talkin about older zero releases which are using jac kernel vs new amonra kernel, or is he not? Because there is no hero port who can outperform xero's speed with proper adjustments atm.

Compiling Cyanogen's kernel - eclair branch - camera not working?

Hi guys,
I'm trying to build a Cyanogen's kernel source (eclair branch) for JAC's xROM.
This ROM has all the bits and pieces necessary for NCommander's camera fix to work, and on my 32B Dream, the camera works just fine with the 32B rom from JAC.
However, I want to use the rom on my 32A Sapphire, so I'm building my own 32A kernel, mashing that with JAC's ramdisk, and hoping to get a working device.
Here's where I'm up to. My build environment is all set up, I've sync'ed Cyanogen's kernel sources from his GIT, and pulled a working kernel config so that I can (theoretically) compile a kernel with the same options etc.
The build works just fine, and spits out a zImage which I can (with mkbootimage) combine with a ramdisk to make a boot.img, which I can flash to my boot partition on teh Sapphire and it works just fine.
Except the camera doesn't work. The screen just goes black and nothing happens.
I found a working 2.1 AOSP kernel ported to 32A, and by coincidence, it happened to be a Cyanogen build - 2.6.29.6-cm42. Using that kernel, and JAC's ramdisk, the device boots, and the camera works. It's this kernel that I extracted the kernel config from to build my own kernel.
I figured same config, same source tree, should result in same (or similar enough) kernel so the camera would work on my build too. But it doesn't.
Does anyone have any advice on how to build Cyanogen's eclair kernel so that Ncommander's camera fix will work?
Desperately seeking advice - this is really annoying me!
reply here, twitter me, or IM me - I'm on gtalk too if you're available for a quick chat there. just let me know and i'll PM you my gtalk address.
So, 94 people have viewed this and no one has any ideas?
Come on folks. There are devs out there using Cyanogen's kernel on Eclair builds, and the camera is working. Surely someone can spare me a minute or two to offer some advice on where my kernel build might be going wrong.
If anyone has downloaded the kernel source from Cyanogen's git hub (the eclair branch, in particular) and successfully used a kernel they've build on an eclair rom with working camera, I'd be really grateful if you could share the process you've followed, just so I can work out where I've gone wrong.
This is, after all, a development forum. Surely someone knows how to do this ...

You know, it really does seem that way.
I've asked respected devs on twitter, and not ONE OF THEM has bothered to respond.
The only advice I've had was from bcrook88, and to his credit, he didn't have much experience in building eclair kernels. At least he took the time to have a bit of a chat to see if he could help.
That's more than anyone else has offered.
It's really sad.
Even the iPhoney community is more accepting.

ncommander's reverse engineered magic is based off of the donut kernel, 2.6.29.6 revision. they will not work if you use eclair (the msm_camera bits also will not build when using cm-kernel eclair branch, and need to be commented out), and or will not work out of the box with 2.6.32 (as an example).

haha yes, eclair branch still doesnt have its own camera persay
the camera we have on eclair is "hacked" like people said, from my understanding (please correct me if I am wrong) its source is mainly donut, if not all donut essentially
So after much debugging I figured this out today. And then I find this thread...
Anyways, the diff between donuts's msm_camera.c and the eclair one is quite big: some structure member names have changed, more logging, flash handling, some queuing code has changed. Still, it shouldn't be too hard to update NCommander's drivers, anyone wants to have a go? We might get official drivers soon, but having open source drivers is better.
The trouble with using a donut kernel is that the 3D Gallery doesn't work, still haven't quite figured why. Any ideas?

Apparently the eclair kernel uses a different device for 3D acceleration (/dev/hw3dc). So it's either camera or 3D gallery...

Hardware GL: SOLUTION

Seems that the file that stands in the way of hardware GL on DREAM for android 2.x is libhgl.so. Now interesting thing is that I've compared the 32A and DREAM versions of libhgl.so (used stock rogers roms since their versions match), and I've found that the libhgl.so for rogers 32A and DREAM are *identical*.... which means that the GL parts of the 7200A and 7201A are compatible -- i.e. work with the same driver.
Now this guy has apparently released leaked 32A/Hero files and has built a 32A ROM with them, including the applicable libhgl.so... which should be compatible with DREAM/32B..... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=636212
Is there some stupid obvious thing that I'm missing? Because it sure looks to me like we have all the pieces we need.....
here is what we are missing.
A developer (someone that knows what they are doing) to check this before making asumptions of something working right.

What are you getting at? Are you implying that I'm not a qualified developer?
I can assure you that I am.
What I am asking is if there is actually anyone who has looked at this at all, and what their findings were. And I want this information BEFORE I waste several hours of my time building AOSP for DREAM with files dumped from HERO. If someone has tried, but there is some simple thing that is missing, like radio/firmware issues that might interfere with this libhgl.so version running on a DREAM with, for example, a stock radio.
Is this related to those weird kernel changes that HTC made to rogers dream? Might we need to install a rogers dream radio? Might we need to install a HERO radio? There are all kind of weird issues that may need to be worked out even given that the hardware IS compatible!

Nice observation.
King, since ur pumping out roms like theres no 2moro Have u tried incorporating his libs into ur rom n seeing if it works ?
I'm not a qualified developer, but I am a 32A user and in case this helps:
To use ROMs based on the new Rogers update I need to install the 1.76.2007 SPL and the 6.35 Radio. I also need to use Amon_RA's Hero recovery. The same thing goes for ahmgsk's ROM, though it isn't stable enough for me to use. ahmgsk does have 3D Gallery and HQ YouTube working.

He actually is. Not necessarily from THAT ROM, but likely from the same source... hero 2.1 dump. And not necessarily the files needed for GL. That is why h264 playback is working on his roms now....
He is also employing the 10MB ram hack, which breaks GL even when the drivers are definitely right.
Be aware that just putting the files into place and disabling the 10MB ramhack may not be enough. We are definitely talking about two devices with different memory, so it may require a kernel adjustment. It may also require a radio adjustment.

Note that we aren't working off a rogers dump. I just used the rogers files (to judge hardware compatibility between 7200A and 7201A) because I happen to know that everything in those two devices definitely matches up except the CPU/RAM.
But your observation regarding the SPL and RADIO are *definitely* valid... which is why I'm talking about the possibility of needing to mess with the radio. I don't *think* that the SPL itself has any more to do with it than simply being compatible with the chosen radio.
*** further possibility: likely any problems encountered would be due to memory mapping. It may be possible to manually adjust the libhgl.so to the appropriate mappings. Would require some (at least partial) disassembly/hacking.
Not too sure if it helps but sanpei's rom also had 3d accel.

I asked about that when initially trying a ROM for the 6.35 radio and my understanding, too, is that the SPL is just required for compatibility with the radio.

So would it be possible to pull the libhgl from kings build and push it to an eclair build?
I don't know if it helps or if I'm being Captain Obvious here, but I've tried just today porting ahmgsk's ROM to 32A old radio (using my Cyanogen-based kernel) and neither video nor 3D does work after this. And pretty much the only thing I've changed is kernel image (with ahmgsk's ramdisk) and wlan.ko, obviously (well, I've moved apps from /system/app to /data/app_s to work around the larger system partition with the new 32A radio, but I don't think that has anything to do with 3D not working). So no, the libhgl doesn't cut it by itself, there's obviously something in-kernel preventing 3D from working on the old 32A/32B radios.
Yes, there are a couple kernel changes that need to be made, and after boot on our Kaiser/Vogue we need to:
Code:
chmod a+rx /dev/msm_hw3dc
chmod a+rx /dev/msm_hw3dm
(we do this in our init.rc)
You also will need working copybit.msm7k.so, libGLES_qcom.so, and an egl.cfg that enables libGLES_qcom.so . There are other .so's that may affect it but those are the only ones I've ever had to move around. This gets OpenGLES mostly working.
I'm no kernel dev but our kernel source can be found here, you can thank dzo and vilord for it.

[THINK-TANK] EB13 Source a Rebranded DKxx Source? : Cleaned Source Inside : (87.4 mb)

Searching through the EB13 source in /arch/arm/boot/ I came across three files of interest, victory_test_kernel.tar, recovery.bin and zImage, I ran over hear excited since I thought Sammy was throwing us a bone to get some custom kernels running early, but nevertheless in true Samsung fashion the files of interest come from October 1st of all dates, and seem to be before DK28. That's Sammy for you. You'll have to wait until Monday to get anything truly EB13.

This got me thinking, maybe Samsung is just had this source for a while now and this is the outcome of all their edits they've made through the leaked stages, this being the final product, anyways, here is a totally cleaned version of the EB13 source that takes half the time to download and is ready to be compiled with a few edits to victory_03_defconfig and build_kernel.sh.
Code:
Edited victory_03_defconfig to add initramfs source and cleaned
various aspects of unneeded files let behind by Samsung.
If your a dev coming from the DI18 source you might find it interesting to know that the default config is no longer ares_003_defconfig, but is victory_03_defconfig.

Granted, this post was mostly for devs in the first place, just letting everyone know and uploading resources for those who dont want to dig through the source and wait for it to download.
yea i get that bubby, and i thank you for it
plus its good to let end users know there is work being done behind the scenes

honestly not to knock bubby but i wouldnt bother, wait like 40 mins there will be cwm3 friendly versions that keep root and have ext4/rfs etc etc

Ok thought so, btw do we still have to wait til monday, to get things really going like roms even with this?
I read elsewhere that the source doesnt help if we dont have the modem and kernal from the ota?
theres work on the kernel right now, may not be done fully but there is work.. the ota will give stuff like modem and the rom itself. dont be surprised to see test builds before thern tho

Thought so, i will wait til next week, maybe mid week and, probaly be an update for everything and and and update zip for the new modem.
The initramfs seems to be half-developed there is alot of junk added, and stuff *seems* to be alot missing comparing everything to DK28.
it an old build.. it was compiled on 10/2010 pre dk28 kernel

That's odd why would they include old stuff in the source. Junk has been left everywhere.

Excellent avatar! "Who ARE you....!!?"
Anyway, Seems that without the kernel and modem the source isn't the end al be all. I'm dying to get f'n TV out working on this phone though. I can continue to dream.

What are you talking about? Are you being an ass?
So is this an old source or is this thread a mistake its new EB13 source? I am so confused after reading this thread.

Sammy posted it as new eb13, however it apparently has some very old code in it...hmmmm.

[Kernel]Peas-&-Q's

So this forum was pretty barren so i wanted to spruce it up a bit, maybe give you guys some hope that development was going on? inspire someone to start working on something? if anyone has any questions on how this was made or wants to learn i suggest reading teh kernel script i include in all my sources, i am also always willing to offer assistance to anyone wanting to learn
anyways...
this is a stock kernel, does nothing more than change the name of your kernel version in your about phone im trying to merge in some of the oc stuff from my sgs3 kernel but things arent matching up correctly.. might need someone to test what ive got in a future version, for now just enjoy your first source built kernel

I'm willing to test and if you've included a script that'll build a kernel with source I'll start fiddling tonight to see what I can find/do.

you need to modify the script to fit your install and have the ramdisk in the place it points since have all my kernel source in separate folders. and all the ramdisk files in the ramdisk folder.
OK, excuse my n00bness - but how do you create a flashable ZIP out of the boot.img? I am rolling kernels, but unsure of what to do with the resulting boot.img...
I see others say "just take the latest flashable zip for your device and modify" - but there are no other flashable zips of only the kernel... hum.
Thanks!
Edit - I think I'm getting the hang of it... hold please for a new kernel
