Polaris 100 Camera Problem with latest Froyo

Hi all,
i have a camera problem after installing Android on my Polaris 100.When i turn on my camera it gives me just a green screen and after a while the OS gives me the message that the process camera.android.com crashed unexpectedly.
I follow the installation to nand steps, that are posted in this forum by l1q1d ,i use the latest kernel 2.6.32 and the latest froyo release "Incubus26Jc_'s_Super_FroYo_RLS16",i create the nbh file using the latest 1.04 atools,and install the android using install.sh script.I tried different radio rom versions,i tried my original radio rom 1.58.XX.XX ,also 1.59.46.12 and 1.65.38.14 and 1.64.XX.XX ,i tried also My Warm Donut Android release but the camera won't work.On my WM6 and on WM6.5 cooked rom the camera works perfectly ,so my conclusion is that this is not a hardware problem.What should i do,any ideas.
I like very much the Droid OS and i want to use it but this problem is very annoying,i search the forum for users with similar problem and i found some threads but they were useless cause the posts does not contain any particular resolutions for this problem.
I will appreciate any help that i can get.
10x in advance everybody

Well,
i finished with my Android experiments now i'll post the results.First i have to say that i didn't succeed to have a working camera on my Android NAND installation .Like l1q1d advace me for all my installations i used kernel 2.6.25,i use 3 version of radio ROM 1.58 (21.23/25.14/26.20) i installed androidupdate from l1q1d sourceforge site,and i use nbh file from his "Kaiser thread".
Now the results by Android Releases:
1.Latest Froyo Release:
Installation failed!
System message during installation:Install module failed.Could not install for this kernel.
2.Latest Froyo Unodex-en (from sourceforge)
Installation succeeded.
1.58.21.23-Camera gives green screen
1.58.25.14-Camera flickering in all kind of colors and shuts down after a while.
1.58.26.20-Camera flickering in all kind of colors and shuts down after a while.
3.Latest Gingerbread (26.12 from sourceforge)
Installation failed!
System message:No space left on device cannot extract data.
4.Barebones deodex
Installation failed!
System message during installation:Install module failed.Could not install for this kernel.
5.Barebones odex
Installation failed!
System message during installation:Install module failed.Could not install for this kernel.
Well that's all folks,if someone has any ideas how to have a working camera on NAND let share his experience with us

The 2.6.32 kernel hasn't camera support for polaris now

Sorry to mention that but i tried also with kernel 2.6.25 with same result,which kernel exactly has a camera support?And could you be more accurate which radio version the Incubus RLS16 is working WITH camera support,is there any chance to have a working android installation with all my communications and features working,i didn't ask much,just want to use my phone for calls,wifi,BT ,GPS and camera thats all.
Regards
godjak

i suggest latest 2.6.25 kernel for camera, choose one release from kaiser thread and remember to install the modules from the modules/androidupdate.tgz in sourceforge.
you asked a fully working system (not too much....)

What did you mean by "Kaiser thread" can you post me a link to this thread?
Do you mean androidupdate.tgz on the atools sourceforge page???
The camera is a very basic feature of every modern phone i don't think i ask for too much,or what can i do with phone that i can't make phone calls.I'm ok with the bugs on your currently developing OS but this is something that i need to have,just to enjoy my PDA and the Droid OS,sorry

Camera isn't a very basic feature for a phone without native android so, there is work to do, if you want to help you are welcome
The update is the one from sourceforge (or look in kaiser thread for the link)

Obviously you won't tell me what is this "kaiser thread" ,do you mean that i have to use kaiser nbh file ,or i'm just guessing your posted hints,if you don't want to help just don't post any more replies i get your insinuating remark.I see that you are the smartest guy in this forum because from the threads i read i'm not the only one getting clever answers and no specific solutions from you for the problems,but this is your right of course.

Hi l1q1d,
My camera works very fine with your latest kernel. I use :
- kernel with Haret (zimage 11-29-10) and all with atools
- last build froyo of Thoughtlesskyle

Greetings!
At me camera Polaris100, android 2.2 has earned!
The system is established on SDcard. Details later.
Excuse for my English

Wow that was some bad english lol. Sounds like your excited about android on your polaris though which is good!

camera works
google translator has done his dirty work! But I will continue to use it. (Better than the very bad way.)
I wanted to say that after extensive experiments android all still earned 2.2 on my touch cruise (polaris 100) including camera and wi-fi.
Everything works! but not yet stable.
I shall list what is not working:
-The camera takes pictures only when switching to video mode error.
-The front camera is not working.
-FM radio does not work.
else works 100%!
Thanks to everyone who has been developing an android 2.2 for polaris 100!

Those are the problems that are common to any polaris kernel and build in existance right now.

HI, i still can´t make my camera work, i have a polaris 100, please hepl a nooby

use 2.6.25 kernel in order to make camera working.

I use 2.6.32 and camera works fine. With radio 1.64.08.21 calls and camera didn't work, and i dwonload radio 1.59.46.12 and all works fine.

Proscan PLT 7035B - connect to PC, upgrade to JB and rooting with Play Store

Details of how to connect to PC, upgrade to JB and rooting with Play Store in posts #3 and #4.
I came across this tablet during the holiday season sale at P C Richard and Son (don't see them carrying it anymore). Found it to be a great deal for 59.99 USD (+tax) since it looks like it has a lot of potential for so cheap a tablet.
The one I am currently playing around with is the last of the 5 that I had picked up as gifts for others (and this one will be reaching the recipient soon).
When searching the web for more info, could practically find none. Most of the stuff I saw online was desperate queries of folks struggling with this model - Proscan PLT7035-B from Curtis Intl..
I love the Jelly Bean on my Nexus 7 and the Note II - and so was just trying to put together a sort of guide of the great work you folks have been doing here at XDA that will immensely help those who seek them for this particular make/model.
Product details:
Model #: PLT7035-B
Processor: Rockchip 2906
1.2 GHz processor
7" capacitative touch screen

In the next couple of posts, will try my best to explain in detail the steps that I took to upgrade my tablet from ICS 4.0.4 to JB 4.1.1 and successfully root as well as have CWM installed along with Google Play store.

Now before we get into details about flashing etc. link below is a nice "guide" article about the various terminologies like what is a Bootloader, custom ROM, Kernel, CWM, Firmware, Flashing, ADB, Root etc.

Click on the above link - a must read for newbies.
Now the Statutory warning: Follow all the remaining steps in this thread at your own risk. It worked fine for me - so neither the forum or me are liable in any sort of way for any damages whatsoever that you may bring upon yourself.

Jelly Bean 4.1.1 Update:
Proscan Model Number PLT7035-B has it on their official site:
http://proscanvideo.com/item.asp?itemnmbr=PLT7035-B
Firmware:
-------------
4.0
http://www.curtisint.com/html/custservice/manuals/PRO_PLT7035-B_FIRMWARE_4.0.ZIP
4.1

Manual
http://www.curtisint.com/html/custservice/manuals/PRO_PLT7035-B_ENFR.PDF
As always - statutory warning - neither me nor the forum are liable for any damages to your tablet - do it at your own risk - no one other than you alone is liable for any damages arising from the usage of this guide.
How to upgrade the firmware after downloading it from above link:
Get the RKBatchTool
First of all - ensure that your tablet is FULLY charged.
Unzip the RKBatchTool v1.5 to your desktop
Turn off the tablet and disconnect from the PC.
Now press the Volume Up (+) button and keep holding it down.
Here comes the slightly tricky maneuver - you have to keep pressing the volume UP (+) button and connect at the USB at same time in to the PC. The tablet will power up on it's own but the screen will remain blank
Once the PC starts searching for the driver, you can release the volume button.
Windows will prompt you for drivers for "RK29 device".
Use appropriate drivers from the driver folder.
Have attached some pictures collected from the web (it is just to give a visual idea as an aid to the walk through and may not be detailed nor accurate in every aspect since some of them are from instructions for other devices).
Run the RKBatchTool v1.5.
Click on first button at the left bottom end of the tool screen - this is a toggle for Chinese/English versions.
In the "FW Path" load the update.img file by clicking on the top right side button with the three ... dots
The following will appear in the status box after the "connected devices" box turns green.
Loading firmware...
Loading firmware Finished.
I clicked "Upgrade" (even though the picture says restore).
Your previously green colored box of "connected devices" will now keep flashing in yellow.
Sit back and have fun watching the status box - will probably take a couple of minutes for the whole process and verification.
When it is all done with - the tablet will reboot.
Remember that the first boot would take a longer time than usual powering up time - so just be patient.
All the best.

Attached below are the pics from Proscan site Powerpoint.

I have successfully rooted it twice and installed Play Store (once with ICS and now with JB)
First time it was with help of amjtech thread [Tutorial] Proscan PLT-7035-PL Root and install GAPPS
Now I tried the [RK29][TOOL] Root RK29 Tab Toolkit since the sdk was already installed.
Very simple and super effective rooting process.:good:
The first time when I ran in to driver installation issues it was pertaining to permissions.
Found work-arounds elsewhere and also had issues with the installing google playstore.
Hence used the Vending 3.9.16.apk from thread [Share] Google Play 3.10.10 [Updated 14.12.12] to resolve it.
Installing CWM was also a breeze - thanks to the great work of fun_ . It is a simple process if you follow his guidelines :good:
He has been very kind to upload an exclusive CWM-based Recovery image for ProScan PLT7035-B (ext4)
Click above link to d/l it and follow installation instructions
--------------------------------------
Precautionary measure - the following is just in case something goes wrong and you want to revert back (and also to have a copy of original images) :
I used the romdump technique and following Oma's suggestion have created the kernel, boot, recovery and system images in SD card for ICS 4.0.4 of Proscan PLT7035-B
http://www.4shared.com/zip/UtCs-yCE/Proscan_PLT7035-B.html
Above link upload to 4share is exclusively for the Proscan PLT7035-B (ICS 4.0.4) and hopefully has not been corrupted because my internet connection has been flubbing for past few days.
Have fun and remember to use caution because you alone are responsible if you brick your device.
Cheers

yes ok

There is also a Second Test Build CM10.1 (Thanks Oma) on Proscan PLT7035-B
Tried the CrewRKTablets_RK29_Loox_CM10.1_4.2.1_20130113.7z along with CrewRKTablets_Format NAND.zip with the custom kernel made by him on his ICS thread.
Am very happy to say it is working great so far except for the spotty wi-fi at times and also screen rotation (needs sensor/rotation calibration).
Please remember that it is still a test build.
Cheers.

Before I try something dumb was pondering if the update will work on 7035 pl. would love to have jb on it, and maybe get a little better battery life. There is so little info out for the pl. thanks for any help you can give.

Sooo I had a moment of derrrr and flashed the jellybean upgrade for the PLT7035-B to my 7035-pl. Boots up (quickly I might add) and goes to the lock screen but I have no touch control over the screen. Does anyone have an image of the original firmware for this tablet?

But you can do all the rooting and install CWM along with playstore as mentioned in post 4 since fun_ has a generic CWM on his site.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=37221496&postcount=4
Would also appreciate it if you could kindly do a romdump of your 7035-PL and host the Boot, Recovery And System Partition Images to help people like capfl2k5 whose post from another forum is quote above.
Also try requesting Oma for a suitable kernel in his JB custom rom thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1903745 and you will be all set. I really like that rom he has built.:good:
And then you could also try the CM 10.1 with that same kernel

[Q] root for dummies - Samsung Galaxy S GT-19000

Hi, I have scoured the web for information but several hours later I am none the wiser.
I would like to root my device in order to optimize its performance. I am super confused about: cf-root, mobile/pc odin, android version, etc. I still have no idea what is appropriate for my device. :crying: Please point me in the right direction.
I have found may threads out there with very detailed instructions, but I can't figure out if that's what I need. I'm apparently on Gingerbread, but what do I need now? The Icecream, the other one?
Reason for rooting: phone too slow with so many apps loading themselves in the background. I want to be able to prevent all these [expletive deleted] apps from loading themselves automatically. I also want to remove the stock apps I don't need (but can't now remove). I'm tired of factory resetting every other week to improve performance.
Ultimate purpose: phone, sms, whatsapp, news. That's it. I don't need 3d porn or anything. :angel: My needs are extremely minimal.
Thanks for any pointers! :good:

Thanks Sewrizer. I'd rather brick the phone than pay for the service. I already have a more recent phone, so this is more of a second device. It's just that I like the typing better so I haven't completely stopped using it. I guess I'm sort of relishing the idea of an experiment with it as well.
Do you have a link to instructions for the above? If it works for your friend, it's good enough for me.
Unless I hear something back, I'm getting ready to try this:
EDIT: galaxy-s-i9000-android422-jellybean-slimbean-build3.htm
from: articles/454365/20130407/
ibtimes.co.uk
thanks a lot.

which cf-root?
Thanks Sewrizer. As it happens these are the instructions I started with, and from which a lot of confusion arose (I can't post urls yet).
The first link is to Odin3 v1.85, but I have found Odin3 v1.87. Not sure if there is a later version. It says somewhere that the latest version is best.
The second link is to a series of posts with many download links. Somewhere down the page it states that if you're confused, then:
First, go to Settings -> About phone -> Build number. It should say something like FROYO.xxJPy. It's primarily the JPy that we are interested in. Try to match that with a download link available in this (and the next few) posts. Some of the downloads dont just have JPy file name format, but are called xx_xxx_JPy.
Let me explain that. Samsung isn't always very precise in naming/marking their different (leaked) firmwares. CF-Root's are modified kernels, the filenames explain in more detail which exact firmware ROM the base kernel was taken from, for those experts who understand.
If you are not one of those people, go back to the JPy thing. The "y" in JPy is 0-9, A-Z. If they run out of numbers, they use letters. So A would be 10 (9 + 1), while Z would be 35 (9 + 26). Find the one that is closest to yours, if yours is not present, and flash that one.
Click to expand...

Well, my build number is of the form GINGERBREAD.zsjv6, which doesn't fit the pattern described (I don't see any JPy, I see jv6), so which version of CF-Root should I download?
GT-19000. Firmware Version: 2.3.3. Baseband Version: I9000ZSJV6. Kernel Version:2.6.35.7. Build number: GINGERBREAD.zsjv6
Thanks!

How to root your S3
Hi, I used one available in droid lessons, but i'm not allowed to post links yet. Just look in google for droid lessons and then " How to Root the Samsung Galaxy S3 " It was really easy, and worked great for me.

Thanks Sewrizer. As it happens these are the instructions I started with, and from which a lot of confusion arose (I can't post urls yet).
The first link is to Odin3 v1.85, but I have found Odin3 v1.87. Not sure if there is a later version. It says somewhere that the latest version is best.
The second link is to a series of posts with many download links. Somewhere down the page it states that if you're confused, then:

downgrade
Sewrizer said:
Looks like that tutorial was only good for stock froyo users. Since you have gingerbread you must have updated your phone. I think you may have to downgrade from 2.3 to 2.2.

yes you're right I did upgrade at the Samsung store. I'll follow up your link now, but it's starting to sound awfully complicated :silly:

Good job, and my respect is even bigger knowing that you are young fellow, non english native speaker...
Wish you enough will to continue and expand your little project, although i think your tests should last bit longer (for now it's more like first impressions).
And i don't think that Roms you pointed as non-working really don't work, people would mention about it...
Anyway, good job, once again

I said that dont work on my decive... This roms yes work but its more difficult to install them because you need to flas first the specifik stock rom that they're based and on my pc odin doesn't work (400 mhz and 128 mb of ram =) ) it's too old.
If you test them you can send to me your opinions and add them as working and tested roms.
Thanks

You must upgrade your phone to 4.1.2
then you must use a tempory CMW, and flash your rom to your phone
sorry for my bad english

The best form me is CM11 from TC, but in the new build you should checge minimal fraq to 200mH because of 100mH battery drain.

I'm using 4.4.4 from novafusion.pl. Very good, no problems with phone.

Great idea to have a central place for people to find ROMs. No doubt, CM is always a good choice but if you like pure Android I can also recommend this AOSP ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588054

Calling SM-T531 MATISSE3G owners for testing

Hey everybody,
I am seeking competent testers for a rom build for the sm-t531 matisse3g. [pac-rom]
my intention is a semi-unified build which can be run on the matissewifi as well.
System dump acquired, courtesy of @repey6 :good:
This thread will not address carrier variants.
This thread is not accepting requests or well wishes.
Please understand I appreciate both however, I would like to keep things
uncluttered and on point.
UPDATE slimkat_matisse-wifi-3g-round-2.zip https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934518340
see this post for details http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58464745&postcount=72
this build should be tolerable for matissewifi, need matisse3g owner to test for wifi functions, 3g is still W.I.P.
based on sm-t531 stock kernel source [official release} with prima/pronto wlan stuff added.
This is not a support thread.
Post #2 will contain Links/issues
Post #3 will remain reserved.
m

Okay, this is round 1, I am aware of the blink issue. - see OP
The name of the file is pac_matisse-wifi-3g-round1.zip 229.95 MB
Round 1 http://d-h.st/eDAi click download now
RESULT - No camera no 3g on matisse3g wifi is up ,
good for matisse wifi though [no camera], remove assert from updater-script - look it up =)
Will leave build up for play value until i have next build uploaded.
thanks @zog222
If you cannot figure out the download then, kindly do not participate.
Please see @sub77 's Recovery thread here for your recovery;

reserved 2

Round 1
Ok, round 1 is up, see Post #2
This will run on matisse wifi as well but, I am working for matisse3g,
if you wish to run the rom on matissewifi you must remove the assert
from the updater script.
I will adjust the assert, upload the matisse-wifi3g device tree and kernel source
when this project is done.

Hi,
i will keep this thread test open till Jan 11 and then close it for lack of interest.
If there is interest and you meet the requirements laid out in OP then please respond or provide me with
reports, logcats, bugs what's working/not working etc.
Thanks.

hi, thanks, i am using my device tree configuration for matisse wifi and trying to adjust it for matisse3g.
i have been running this build on my matissewifi since i posted it.
my previous build and previous tester @mariojuniorjp confirmed the build will boot correctly, but in that initial
build i mistakenly built for a wifi only device.
is mobile data working ?

Why Pac man? MIUI, Paranoid, SlimKat, Lewa?
To be honest, I'm waiting for 3-4 roms to go from stok. Now I do not even root for my sm-t531

hi,
the rom version doesn't matter for the moment. Getting a functioning build from a proper device tree is the goal.
Once that is done, I post the tree and development moves foward.

How many logcats you have now?
Sorry for my english

z,
you're english is fine :good:
I have not recieved any information yet as to logcats, bugs, what's working, what isn't.
I thought to take on the project to help out and to learn more about development for android but,
without useful feedback this project dies on the 11th. I have other projects on my plate.
An interesting note, the sm-t53x and the smt33x seem to be almost completely hardware identical
except for the display screen, not the egl layer stuff, i literally mean the display screen.
I flashed this same rom on my sm-t330nu and except for the display things seem to work.
even wifi seemed to be up when i ran lsmod and rfkill through adb.

okay, the logcat message Ignoring duplicate VSYNC event from HWC, as far as i can tell is just spam.
on network/communications , does the matisse3g also have wifi capacity ? i have never owned a 3g device, so i do not know.
i am attempting to find missing proprietary files, i will have another build up in a day or two.

Does wallpaper display in Trebuchet launcher or is screen black ? If so Nova Launcher is a suitable replacement for now.
