[ROM] Conical - development

This thread will be about general development of the Rom. I believe the thread conical lockscreen should be left alone to discuss the lockscreen. Currently my kernel works. Now all I need to do is properly package the ROM for flashing.

ROM properly packed and flashed to my phone. Upon startup device controls don't initiate. So no touch or controls other than power lockscreen button. Any ideas where is should look to remedy this.
Current build is AOSP eng Froyo with stock kernel

Tried a dream build to acquire touch controls but still no luck. Maybe I'm missing some proprietary binaries. Maybe it's in the frameworks. Anybody have any ideas. This is a AOSP build of Froyo

Seems the controls are in the framework. Using apktool to analyze framework I found HTC, print, Verizon and one other subdirectory. In the process of turning the smali code under out/smali/com/HTC/multitouch/ into java.

Is this ROM for the Incredible? If so, you'll probably get more help with it in the Incredible specific forum. I would recommend providing more information also. It's really hard to tell what you are asking.

Yes this ROM is intended for the Droid incredible(with eventual port to others). What my intentions are is to build a ROM from the AOSP Froyo source then customize. I don't want to use the stock image. Is this even possible? I don't see why not.

I just switched to this phone, and i was wondering if you or any of the other devs would be able to port an ics rom, i only see a ics like rom with just theming. Im just asking and hope this question doesnt take this question the wrong way

We are stuck with the stock ROM (a modified 2.2) due to the drivers not being open source. All the custom ROMs are just tweaks of the stock one and until someone reverse engineers our phone or we get a 2.3 update (both highly unlikely) you probably won't see much more development. ICS will never happen, the most we will get is 2.2 with an ICS theme

[Q] miui rom for p6200?

hi there..
just a noob question, will there be a miui roms for tab 7+ P6200? since i thought those roms are awesome..

Heeeeeeeeee hehe it should be AMAZING you're right I personally guess it shouldn't be too hard to build, but we have few devs right now and aorth is already working on the CM9 which supposed to be wonderful too.
I read once talking about the P6200 MIUI in its Italian channel on nexuslab but I think we're still far away from it
Let's hope dude I'd just like it too on my own p6200

In order to properly have MIUI, we must have CM9 first. Why? MIUI is based off of CM.
That being said, once we have CM9 fully (or close to) being a Daily Driver, someone can easily port over MIUI using a lot of the CM9 components and merging them with MIUI bits.
Atleast that's how it happened on my Epic 4G

CM and MIUI are both AOSP ROMs and you need an AOSP kernel in order to get them to work properly. You could get it ported over right now but nothing would work, same as with the CM9 builds we already have, so really I see no point in doing it except as a proof of concept or work in progress type ROM. The few devs we have are all working hard on CM9 but it's slow going without having all the needed hardware drivers that Samsung won't release. Once that is done MIUI won't be far behind.

we have very few developers for now, and there are some major issues such as the wireless.. until that issues are resolved, i don't think we want to split tasks or add more task for the developers. We need at least one working custom kernel first for use as a basis. That is a much higher priority now.

Porting roms

I have a couple of maybe stupid question.
What do i need to port an ics rom to my phone from another phone?
we have a semi working cm9 rom (missing camera ans fm radio), and i'd like to use another ics rom, aokp or something like that.
All the driver files i need to have are on the kernel? or there are some files that need to be changed within the rom?
Can i install a rom from a similar hardware phone and just switch the kernel?
I've always been a final user of custom roms, but i really want to learn more about android development so i can contribute to the forum
So anyone wiling to give me a tutorial?
Thanks in advance

Repo-synching cm7 changes to an MTD CM7 based ROM

Hi
I have a question I'd be happy to get an answer to.
Erikmm sent me a MIUI port I translated and posted later on as HebMIUI.
Today I wanted to merge the cm7 front facing camera fix in.
I saw in team acid github the fix was made in camera lib and in kernel.
So i copied the relevant lib and boot.img (which as i understood includes the kernel) to the ROM zip and reflashed ROM. I think the camera is fixed but I'm getting FCs for systemui, settings and launcher and i had to restore my backup.
Can you please explain how i can sync these kind of changes to a CM7 based on ROM ?
Thanks!

Is it possible to compile MIUI from source?

Probably yes, but I haven't ever done it...plus i don't have it...

That's the problem with porting ROMs with smali, if you want to grab all the latest changes you're gonna have to use the newly built rom as base. This is why we were trying to get MIUI patchrom working. If we have the new zip it does the smali patching for you and you don't have to do nearly as much work since you can automate it.

I don't understand, on BML I used to flash a new kernel every second day. There is no way to flash only the kernel on MTD?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium

The kernel changes had userspace changes to go with them (new builds of the libraries).
That wasn't going on with the BML kernels. People were just adding new features, not really changing anything that was already in the rom.

The only way of it working is if you build miui from source, or re-port it. There are 2 separate branches, android device and kernel. A fix in kernel also goes with another device. And device is built in the rom
