That would be cool, and seeing as the eris and the hero are very similar it's probably very possible.

any chance we could get the CyanogenMod team on board for something like this

Instead of having to delete everything on the phone and restore a previous image, it will run the ROM from your sdcard. This should in theory make it load faster. I'm looking at it now. I will let you know.

+1...thanks!

WOW.... I know I'd love this on my hero... thanks to anyone who wants to work on porting this =]

I will let you know something about this tomorrow. I would not try flashing the recovery for that because the kernel, hardware keys and some other things are different from our phone.

Wow, I'd love to do this. Imagine CM6 on your phone, but when you need to call sprint or want to use flash, you can go to sense! Since the eris is very similar to the hero, this should be possible.

Bump. We need some dual boot.

Im looking into it
Alright im looking into it im just not very good with android sdk.

You don't need the sdk... All you need is 7zip and adb setup for logcat if it doesn't boot. Use the version from the evo 4G, as it will already have the cdma sstuff you will need. This is a decent guide here.

I tried to build it using kushdecks device source tree and htc vendor and it's a no-go...we don't have a device source tree that is compatible with AOKP.

Well it wouldn't install

[Q] gingerbread

As of right now, what is holding us back from porting gingerbread to our sidekicks? Is it drivers? Or a 2.3 kernel that runs? I need a list of what needs to be done exactly.
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA

See here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1557094
And, here:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/22310-wipcm7-for-sidekick-4g/
Hope that helps!

Thank you, but I've seen both of those and followed them to the end. I'm looking for a specific list of what is needed to port gingerbread to our device. As in i may take up the task of porting it
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA

Would probably be a good idea to continue where windixxi left off since hes the closest person to get ginger working on our phone.

i think i remember Sduvick explaining that the drivers for this device are not exactly generic, so we really need an official Gingerbread kernel from Samsung. i'm pretty sure he tried porting a gb kernel from another device, but without updated drivers for the SK4G, it was basically impossible. that's how i understand it anyway.

Thank you yogi for the info and yes pintek im aware of windxixi great work but i cant figure out his github at all. Its not labeled well.. so more or less its a drivers issue?

Basically? That's what I understood as well.

So instead of trying to port drivers we would have to write new drivers in theory since we don't have a source to build from?

It's no small job. Here's sduvick's assessment of the issue:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22765446&postcount=7

Thanks for the reading orange. Gave me the idea that the kernel is going to have to be a makeshift mix and match type thing from kernels from multiple phones.

I agree.
As mentioned previously, maybe windixxi can provide some insight as well.
You're probably going to need some experience and knowledge of coding (i.e. C, Python, Java) and access to a Linux rig of some sort as well..

Yes im going to setup a linux enviroment soon i was thinking ubuntu but i havent setup a linux in a while are their any better alternatives?

I recommend installing a hard drive specifically for your Linux environment and using the bios to switch between your boot OS.
But, I also have Ubuntu installed inside of VirtualBox. It's a bit slow, but it works inside of Windows.

so awesome that Samsung are such *****es about this haha

Sounds like i may be in need of a better computer. Ill see what i can do with what i have and start looking into kernels with stuff we need
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA

I think there's a kernel guide here you could look at.
A OC/UV Kernel would be fabulous.

I might try that to get me back into the groove of things, things are going slow with classes though so nobody should get their hopes up yet. But if i manage to buil an oc/uv kernel sucessfully, then my next project will be working on a gingerbread kernel. Ill keep you guys posted in the weeks to come.

If you (or other SK4G developers) are interested, I may be able to arrange a build server.

It's just noob way ...I replaced the miui's Filemanager by mifile (I think it's better) and the theme manager fixed itself by cMIUI team (I discovered the issues of the previous theme manager and intended to write a guide about how to fix it w terminal emulator but surprisingly that it was fixed in thhis new version ^^) and root manager, I replaced LBE with supersuser...so...noob, rite? ^^

If you're on GB then you can simply extract the AllShare.apk from a ROM that has it or go in one of lumins thing and look for the APK. IF it fails to install try pushing it and fixing permissions. It will most likely fail because it has Samsung proprietary stuff so just follow Lumins guide if nothing goes into plan.
If it doesn't work at all then I'm sorry, it might need other proprietary stuff like Swype.

Today is your lucky day...
I had to flash back to stock, and I remembered this thread, lucky you.
so... here is the apk, not sure it will work because is may have dependencies, but try it out.
apk does not say AllShare, but the icon matches the app in the drawer.
if it won't install, push it to the system\apps folder with a root file explorer.

Just curious, did it install or did you have to push it?
I was afraid that would be the case. It most likely has touchwiz and other proprietary Samsung files it depends on. Possibly even the kernel like wifi calling.

You can see in logcat when an apk won't install because it is missing something -- and it will usually say what. I've seen clear logcat indications that TW libraries are what is missing on Memo.apk, for example.
