[DISCUSSION/INFO]CM7 on Captivate - The real information thread. - Captivate General

Now, you may have seen the other CM7 thread, and those who saw it know it was a cluster*MOD EDIT*. I'm just going to clear up some of the misinformation about the port.
1. I am currently running CM7 on my phone.
2. It is not a dual boot, unlike supercurio's NSONSGS work, it is an actual rom.
3. It is only being developed for the i9000, but with a few reorientations, it's usable as captivate rom.
4. There are no official releases for either phone, you must build from source. Instructions are on the CM forums.
Any other questions, I'm happy to answer. I just don't like when misinformation is wrongly spread.

Sorry about that. Heh heh. I apologize for that thread.

So couple questions.
1 If it's a full ROM did you have to convert NAND to EXT4 as well? My understanding was the WHOLE file system on NS was EXT4.
2 If you did have to convert it, have you tried going back to any other "regular" ROM's?
Thanks for the information/clarification. Honestly though, I think it's unfair to single out DG, he's helped alot of people here. If he is wrong he's wrong but no need to hate.

I would just like to add, do want

Thanks for starting a new thread, as you said, clusterf*ck. Out of curiosity, as I'm still syncing repo, did you reorient the kernel yourself or did it come with the repo?

misinformation? They are using supercurios kernel work to boot it. (i said KERNEL not initram, where the dual boot comes from)
If there is any further work being done by codeworkx and others, its in private., but I can tell you there is NO chatter in the dev channel, hasn't been in some time.

Can't we just get over everything and stop with the petty insults... This thread is going downhill already, lets try and keep it clean.

1. Nope, everything is mounted as yaffs2. When you flash the "initial" zip, it creates all the partitions.
2. You can, but you must either use "repartition" in Odin, or use the one click to stock.
And I know, I was just joking about. I can certainly edit that out if it offends him.

They may be using it, but they've done a ton of work on it. Are you looking at sc's repo, or coolya's? Cause coolya's is the one with CM7.
EDIT: DG, it's not a dual boot. They may be using his kernel as a base, but a lot of the work is from there.

If the CM/SGSTeam's Source is Open Source.. Why the team will piss off if we compile from it source, and post it?

Because when stuff doesn't work, people ***** at them and they have to fix it, taking time away from deving. That, on top of the captivate not even being an officially supported device.

They probably will get mad. Honestly, even though its open, there are still moral issues. Its basically taking someones hard work and passing it off as your own, because you know that people will credit the one who built it and made it freely available.

Please stop. No need for the back and forth.
Thanks for the post, I'm sure there's sombody out there who was unaware of the SDK drop.
So.. sorry for the non-developer question here but.... Now that the SDK is out.. does that mean we will start seeing the devs pushing out 2.2 roms or is there something else that will still need to happen for this to work?
I am no dev but my understanding is that this is just the sdk we need to wait until circa June.
Maybe a dev can be more accurate but I am not sure we have a dump of the Rom yet

Not yet. As far as I'm aware, the source code for Froyo has not yet been released to the AOSP git (where we can access the Google-maintained source). Until it is released there, all we can do is play with the SDK and develop Froyo-ready applications.

Devs could try to use SDK images or device dumps to create roms, but this will be "hacking way" until Google will upload Froyo sources.

no, we wont start seeing ROMs for release on here until some 2.2 sourse is given to the AOSP(android open source project) which will hopefully not be too much longer.i give it end of first week in june.
2.1 has been out for how ever long and they still have not released the correct drivers to us users on G1/MT3G.....(video drivers and such)
I hope they do give the Dev what they need, but why should we expect it when what we still lack on 2.1 has not been released?
I am not even close to being a developer and don't really know what Im talking about, but just my thoughts....
so froyo should work better than eclair on our g1/mt3g's?
Straight from the googleio twitter, retweeted by Cyanogen:
Froyo will be made available to OEMs and the open source community in the coming weeks.

[TUT] Ubuntu on Evo 4g

First you have to flash this zimage
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=357141&d=1278649181
Do this by rebooting your phone into fastboot
adb reboot-bootloader
then,
fastboot flash zimage zImage
then reboot and follow the instructions on this tutorial and it will work like a charm
http://htcevohacks.com/htc-evo-hacks/how-to-install-ubuntu-on-htc-evo-4g/
Thank vinny75 for compiling the zimage that makes this work for the evo
and thank the guy who wrote the tutorial for everything else..
thank me for nothing because i didnt do anything lol
EDIT: EVERYBODY JUST FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS ON THIS LINK
http://htcevohacks.com/htc-evo-hacks/how-to-install-ubuntu-on-htc-evo-4g/
Please, wrong section... I am begging you. The Q&A section is two clicks away.
Ubuntu hasn't been ported to the Evo. It is a highly involved process. You can't expect a ROM for the Nexus One to work on the Evo right? There are drivers to port, kernel modifications to be made. Lots of stuff have to happen first.
The website you pointed to mentions that he is working on a port anyhow. Wait for that to come out.

There is the Linux for android app in the market but it will only work with a loop file system which our kernels don't have or a specially partitioned SD card.

if loop file system is required and loop support isnt compiled into the stock kernel, i haven't checked this, but with the HTC source coded release last week, shouldn't be an issue to compile your own kernel adding in loop support or having a ROM/kernel dev add in loop support.
edit: if i remember right, its a simple option to check under file system in the make kernel config.

Why is it you repeatedly insist on trolling this "wrong section" bull**** on almost all the threads? It's not your job.
Toast will take care of it. bobdude5 isn't a new member and yet you treat him as such? His question obviously belongs in this section and even when you call him out on it... a Mod has already authorized him to post in section? I bet you feel dumb.
It seems to me, you have no idea where most questions belong, it's probably best you keep your mouth shut and let Toast worry about those who are posting in the wrong section -- it's not even that hard for a Mod to move certain questions to a different section.
Add your input, just don't be a troll.

Ok back on topic please.
Also I wanna add its most likely the kernel also. I can compile one for testing tonight if someone doesn't wanna help out and do it first. I think we also need to setup the evo on decordes Linux for HTC devices wiki. I'm at work so searching and linking isn't possible atm. I know he has a section for us there already. We can also gain from the wikis for similar devices there. Anyhow yeah let's not clutter thus thread with trash and let the development begin.

Now, obviously the directions are for the NEXUS ONE... and most likely won't work for the EVO, however this is good starting point to see what steps can be taken from the video and tweaked to make it work with our EVO's.
Good luck.
I am actually working on this
The problem with it is that the Evo 4G kernel needs to be compiled with support for loop devices. All Nexus One ROMs actually support this but Evo 4G doesn't.
The best way would be to ask those guys making the ROMs to compile the support for loop devices for future versions such as OMJ Roms.
Then could just use the same Nexus One script and would work.
In the meanwhile, I am learning to compile the kernel myself but perhaps you guys can ask the others to include support for loop devices on other ROMs.
Just need to enable CONFIG_DEV_BLK_LOOP=y in the kernel config and rebuild.
Seems to be working now, installing LXDE as I type this.
extract the attached zImage then boot into fastboot and "fastboot boot zImage" to test.

Why not something more lightweight than ubuntu?

Modded DodgeKernel for Stock Sense ROMs! Reclaim your ADB (now with source).

For me, the most stable kernel I have yet used is the kernel by dodgejcr (v1.3), which can be found here Moreover, since I run rooted stock, there were two main issues with the available kernels (though they are all excellent work):
1. "adb remount" will not work,
2. "terminfo" is not set up, so nano text editor will not properly work.
Due to this I made of mod of the kernel which I use, and thought someone else could use this.
From dodgejcr --
The kernel includes:
Overclock to 1.63GHz
--Also added 1.01GHz, 1.20GHz, 1.42GHz
Undervolted
Interactive governor
BFQ Scheduler
Sleepers disabled
Enabled powersave governor
Updated cpu scheduler with 200-line patch
Enabled swap support and init.d scripts (needs testing)
This will install the su binary to /system/bin and /system/xbin/ to provide you root so remove superuser.apk before flashing
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
My mods to the kernel
1. Edited the default.prop file:
(i) Gives adb root privileges,​
(ii) Allows for "adb remount" to work.​
2. Added some new global environment variables:
(i) Set up terminfo, so that nano can be run (by typing "nano"),​(ii) Changed the terminal prompt to show your current path,​(a) Instead of showing /$ regardless of the path, it now shows [email protected]<path_name>/$.
(b) For example, if you are in /system/app, the prompt is [email protected]/system/app/$.​
3. Additionally, I added the nano binary, and a full bash terminal to the update.

From dodgejcr --
Cloverdale,
I would like to actually talk you (not thru people that do not know me) about this whole confusion with you using my kernel. I dont mind it one bit. I know my source hasnt been posted yet but in no way is my kernel closed source. I know XDA has some issues with posting a kernel with no source (that is why I personally havent posted it here) but the actual GPL gives me 30days to get it up. Im still working on developing that kernel so I figure I will get some more work done to it before I go posting the source. I am a firm believe in opensource and by me posting it on SDX you are more than welcome to take it and edit my zip for your needs and post it up for others. Proper credit was given and I really never had a problem with it. I like my kernel and its flattering that you do as well. I cant post in development here at XDA as I only have 6 posts or I would explain this to the people on that thread. I think it would be a good idea to quote this PM on the thread so that people will know the facts instead of making assumptions. I will also talk to tamb, I am pretty cool with him so he probably just got a thing or two mixed up. Thank you,

No... "source" as in source code.
Just flashed this, running good. 1600 was the max my phone could run anyways, and I love having adb working right now. I removed the su stuff before flashing, I rather like the security of the superuser app having to whitelist apps for root access. Also removed the bash part, as I already had bash on my phone setup and didn't want to bother with redoing it all... lol It is really nice for some scripts and the like to actually work without editing when they ask for userid to be root, what with the passwd and group file being added too. I'll keep using it and see how it goes, but so far so good. Thank you!
Also, does this default to the deadline scheduler? I noticed that's what I'm on, but I didn't know if it defaulted that way or my settings stuck.

I cannot find it posted, but I sent dodgejcr an email requesting it. Hopefully I will have it up by the end of the day.
The point is it wasn't yours to post, which is why you don't have the source code. Which in a way brings me to my next question: does this terminal modification rely on dodgejcr's kernel in order to work, or would it work with any Sense kernel? Why wasn't this posted on it's own?
I'm about 99% sure, and I could be wrong, that dodgejcr did not approve of you taking this kernel and listing it under "cloverdale's development mod". Dodgejcr already added init.d support, so you didn't add anything to his kernel. I'm guessing, again, could be wrong, you couldn't figure out edify scripting so you placed your files inside an update zip that worked that included dodgejcr's kernel. Why didn't you create your own kernel to avoid this entire issue? I would love to see dodgejcr's kernel at xda, but this is entirely the wrong way to achieve that. Could a mod please suspend or lock this thread til these issues can be resolved?

This does not require his kernel, I could do this to any kernel. His is just very stable, which is why I used it. One must unpack a kernel, edit and repackaged, so I do not understand what is meant by posting on its own.
If you actually read the OP you would see what was added to it. I gave adb root privileges, so remount would work, and I added global environment variables. So yes, you are guessing, and you are wrong.
I have no problem with creating my own, just no time. Maybe I am wrong, maybe I am guessing, but you have no real profession, and consider playing forum mod to be you gift to the world.
Don't worry about a mod doing it, I will take it down. It is pathetic assholes such as yourself that make me hate XDA. Piss off.

This does not require his kernel, I could do this to any kernel. His is just very stable, which is why I used it. One must unpack a kernel, edit and repackaged, so I do not understand what is meant by posting on its own.
If you actually read the OP you would see what was added to it. I gave adb root privileges, so remount would work, and I added global environment variables. So yes, you are guessing, and you are wrong.
I have no problem with creating my own, just no time. Maybe I am wrong, maybe I am guessing, but you have no real profession, and consider playing forum mod to be you gift to the world.
Don't worry about a mod doing it, I will take it down. It is pathetic assholes such as yourself that make me hate XDA. Piss off.

You can't let them get to you like that. There are people like that all over any forum. And no mod would shut a thread down immediately without giving an opportunity to fix it. And you gave credit where it was needed, and didn't claim anything was yours that wasn't, so I don't know that anything would warrant any such action here. I've seen that you have contributed a few things here, far more than that guy. Don't letsomeone like that chase you off.

The point is it wasn't yours to post, which is why you don't have the source code. Which in a way brings me to my next question: does this terminal.....

Ignore the troll tambourineman...just kidding...
He can't help himself, no where does the OP not credit the appropriate people
Cloverdale - just ignore this guy, he's a buddy of dodgejcr and shouldn't be concerned with what you're posting if dodgejcr isn't concerned.
Impailer - is something missing from this thread or not?
The reason that the Dodge kernel was taken down in the first place is that there was no source code posted. Since this is the same kernel and there is still no source code posted (none posted at SDX, either), it's just a matter of time before the mods will take it down.
Cliff's Notes: GPL
I am going to redo this with an open source kernel and repost in a few days (when I have time again). Thanks for the support.
I was trying to warn you so that you wouldn't have to go through the same frustration that I did.
Local mod sent a PM mid-day on Friday (I didn't get an e-mail notification... is that XDA default?) that said I had 48 hours to post source in my thread. 36-37 hours later, my thread was locked in the middle of the night. Talk about annoying.

I know what it means so you don't need to teach me about it. But android is open source hence should be shared among everybody.
So... anyone tested it yet? able to boot?

Randomblame's kernel source code is freely available for you to download and build. There's nothing more 'open source' than that. Extracting a compiled kernel from someone's ROM without permission and put it into your own ROM is clearly not.

I know but I took it without permission as I did not know how to compile a kernel. Now that someone is helping me out then I will not touch his anymore. Will do my own cm10 port about a few days time.
What up with the link; I have to sign up for mediafire now??
I think you should remove mentions of the other dev in your OP.

I think you're missing the whole point of what asking permission in this scenario is all about.

I did ask him in the first place but he totally disagree with it. What's wrong with using a ROM in the first place when it is meant to be shared among other peoples? Why are people getting selfish nowadays? Even if he spent 100 over hours with that ROM, whats wrong sharing a kernel? Not like he bought the whole CM10 down, so it should be shared among people.

I'm only thinking of one of the dev's in particular, not mentioned as thanks. I'm guessing he won't want to be associated with your ROM.
Friendly advice, take it or leave it.

If you went and did it anyways, why did you ask in the first place?
It is being shared. You can get the source. If you don't know how to compile it, you should learn. Not steal. Instead you're getting upset at him not doing the work for you. kind of not cool. If you really want to push out your own ROMs so bad, learn how to do the legwork in the first place.

If you think it is very easy to do compiling of stuffs when you have a computer which has only 512mb of ram, not even reaching 1ghz single core, show me that you can do it. And if you think it is very easy everything from the basics, go try it yourself. If you can't even produce a ROM, don't come teach me what to do. I was rushing my work to show to everybody that the v1.9.2a update would work perfectly but indeed I had broken the rules by taking RandomBlame's kernel without permission. Till then if you can't produce a ROM, do not teach me what to do. I managed to get this phone , which was already like 2 years old from my family, and my whole family is not that rich. We can't even afford a 'normal' PC like most people had nowadays, and had to live our lives with mostly second hand stuffs. When I got this phone, I was totally shocked how the HTC Sense made the phone laggy for me, hence I went into modding my phone, trying to build Chinese Custom ROMs into this development forum, and seeing people able to appreciate my work makes me happy. Now my family is even having difficulties saving money up for my school fees that I have to pay.
So if your life is not like mine DO NOT TALK LIKE YOU ARE THE BOSS OF THE FORUM. -End Of Speech-

From my understanding, you have to swap out the patches and it's specific to your device and ROM. I took a look at one of the patcher tools, but it was just a bunch of confusion to me until I can actually sit down and take a look without having to rush. Think you could take a look as well? Greatly appreciated :victory:

Well, let me know if you figure anything out when you get everything up and running. I'm definitely going to be sitting down tonight and looking into it, I'll report back if I find anything!
I just found this quote in the post; "For all who keep on asking your answers can be found in this thread just search. To use the patch you need your rom's source code then run the patch command on linux and patch your source add the resources and compile. There is no flash zip morphs or anything flash able because AOSP roms are not the same it will be hard to make a flash able zip for all and this is the development section if you don't know what to do then search, read and read some more instead of these consider requests that wouldn't happen. You have to do see stuff yourself something" ... so my question now is, where is the source code for LS RC5(seeing that you run it as well).

LS RC5 is based off of CM10, so it would be the cyanogen mod 10 source code, which is android 4.1.2 source
