[Contest][Developers Only]Free Fascinate to the best development idea. - General Topics

I received this Samsung Fascinate from RootzWiki.com at the Big Android BBQ. I don't need it.
This device has UnBrickable Mod applied to it. It can handle any firmware which you apply to the device. It cannot be bricked under any circumstances. You can always resurrect it with software. The device has a cracked screen, it is an asthetic problem only. The device is fully operational and ready to be used as a development device for any purpose.
Here is a link to the device http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SCH-I500RKAVZW
So, here's the contest rules:
1. Simply post up what you would do with this device and if you have the best project, you get the device.
2. There are no other rules. Just state what you would develop on this device and it could be yours.
This contest will end on 31 October 2011.
I've received PMs about the judging. Here's how it will work: I will narrow it down to a few projects, and then I will ask XDA Recognized Developers in our chat room to pick from the final few. I just want this device to go to someone who will develop something useful for the community.

Further the Glitch kernel on that device by:
Eliminating bluetooth echo
Work on keyboard pop-up in low signal areas
Further improve in-call audio tweaks that we have already starte
Further tweak voltages to allow more devices to overclock.
Have it open for whatever wierd stuff people want to try (like booting WP7 or Nexus S Bootloaders)

1.I would test my apps on it, that I have developed.
2. I would also get back into the ROM business and put out the best AOSP ROM I possibly could!
3. I would test anyone's ROMs that need tested (but the dev doesnt have the phone)
4. I would replace the screen
5. Release more themes for Fascinate ROMs

.
Only Developers please, any other post will be deleted

I've received a few PMs about how I will pick the winner. Well, I put some thought into it. I'm going to let Developers pick the winner. I will narrow down some of the better projects and then let the XDA-RDs pick the best of the best. This way it's fair and it's not just me saying a single project is the best.

I'd probably build a kernel for it.
I'd love to take on writing a new bootloader, maybe true dual rom support, etc..
But I doubt I truly have the skills needed to pull off such a thing.
=]

This is what i will do, as a dev:
1) Build my own u-boot (and try to make it running)
2) Update the whole kernel source of SGS/Fascinate to the newest 3.1 (still in RC)
3) Build Debian + 3.1 Linux kernel to run natively under our devices (sgs/fascinate)
4) Do some experiments about debugging with Arduino as output processing system
I have just bought a new arduino, so i think is time to start real development!!
Thanks in advance Adam!
Greetings

When you mean only developers, do you mean only those with "Recognized Developer" in their profile, or anybody who develops?

No. You do not have to be recognized to be a developer. It helps. Its easy to see who's a developer and who isn't. Just look at threads started... If the topics are mainly asking for help on remedial tasks, that's not a developer. If the topics are mainly releases or advanced subjects, that's a developer. I wont exclude people for their membership status. I'm looking at who can use a development device and who's going to actually use it as a development device to help the community.
It was given to me for development... I developed it and made it better with UnBrickable Mod and I added a battery cover. My project is done. I want someone else to use it as a development device. I'm hoping to give someone an opportunity which will benefeit the rest of the SGS community in some way, shape, or form. I wont judge based on anything except the project and likelihood of followthrough. Finally other developers will decide who gets it.
Noobs to XDA can be more skillful then Recognized Developers... I'm not concerned with titles.

Wow! Big Arrow eh?

Why me ? Simple.
1. I would develop the **** out of roms for the Fascinate
2. I am working on a dualboot linux environment and android (let the user choose in the beginning)
3. Rethinking and remaking a recovery (first steps taken)
4. Because I think I can pull all this previous **** off.

alright , hes probably not aware of this , and I will pm him a link , he already owns a fascinate and hes my favorite dev in the SGS community . his XDA name is sbrissen
from TSM , thats who my vote goes for ...

if i got it i would port roms over and get xboardermod up and running and mybe evena aosp hybrid rom i have on g2x, g2, and sensation

I would work on porting linux kernel 3.0 to it, mainly because the device apparently cannot be bricked and this would greatly benefit the portable open-source community, I would also use it as a testbed for having a tablet without Dalvik VM or the google android OS, which I so dispair at, instead I think I'd use UClibC to port a minimal x-server or if I am feeling adventurous an SVGAlib frontend. I think thats about all I could do with it but I think it's quite impressive for a n00b. Also I suppose I would have to adda blog to my website to update you all on my progress ;~)
Edit: (additional infos)
I do already have an advent vega with vegacomb and have made some trivial apps for that to display my previous web-dev work but I just remembered I am playing with psx4droid and aDosBox source to make it work & more usable on vegacomb, maybe I could also update & test it on this device and release it on here (I will never post anything to the market, sorry I hate google)

Do I count if I use the device as my first android based smartphone to take my android development to further levels?

Hey Adam,
If i get the device i will make a SGS II port like on the Samsung Galaxy S I also alot of Fascinate users have PM'ed me to port my rom onto their device. So now its all upto you.
Thanks,
Faryaab

I'm not a "Recognized Developer" on this board, but I do work on embedded systems (arm, powerpc, x86, etc...)
port u-boot to fascinate and enable fastboot. (See: [U-Boot] Fastboot gadget, v2)
investigate ubi/ubifs to replace yaffs2 (faster, and dynamic partitioning) without xsr/fsr/tfsr, you have to use raw mtd. See: Raw Flash vs. FTL)
performance improvements
port to other Galaxy S, S2, and others.
newer recovery supporting all of the previous items.

AFT firmware mod for HTC Dream (Android 1.5)

AFT firmware mod for HTC Dream
This reflash is hybrid build from leaked files and sources of Magic reflash.
* I do not include any radio's in my build. If you are coming from an RC33 build, you can get the latest radio 2.22.19.23 here This is the same radio as the one that came from HTC.
http://sapphire-port-dream.googlecode.com/files/Saphire-Radio-Update (rc33).zip
Набиши
This Build based on the The Dude's Cupcake v0.8 NO WIPE Regular and have some changes:
Changes made by AndroidFan team:
• All packages in reflash had been optimized like in other official Android releases. Due to this the final size of the image had increased. It made us to delete some useless stuff. But this optimization saves approximately 20 Mb of user data and improves system performance and startup time.
• Chinese font, voice dial files and several standard ringtones were deleted to save extra disk space.
• Busybox was also removed (unfortunately there were no enough space for it)
• 2 on-screen keyboards
• Russian language is installed by default and can be switched to English easely.
The most important improvement – is optimization. Dex files (with code) are being extracted from package during its installation. After phone-targeted optimization they are put into cache folder. All non-final reflashes comes with usual packages which should be optimized before usage. During optimization process all non-optized code is being replaced by ready-to-use one. This saves storage space and improves performance.
Here are several screenshots:

Is performance the only upgrade to this build, or are there any other functional changes/upgrades/enhancements?
Sorry I don't speak Russian, so forgive me for posting the question here rather than http://androidfan.ru....:D
Actually not only performance, we also tried to improve stability and added ‘garbage collector’. We are just at the beginning of our work, further releases are to come. Btw, there is a special thread on our board for English-speaking users.

Good luck with that. It took me 10 minutes to find that thread. I had to find the forum link in the menu through trial and error.
I don't see this catching on much, especially with this kind of support. If a noob can't figure out how to rename a zip file, I doubt they're going to search a russian website for the answer.

I clicked the link at the bottom of his post which was originally androidfan.ru, but has since been changed to forums.androidfan.ru. I must have been wrong assuming the first link in his post was a direct link to the actual firmware, considering that's what it was labeled as.

We caught that the first time.
Has anyone tried flashing this, yet? I'm curious as to how it compares to Haykuro's 5.0.2G.
Hello, me and Dude have been talking and it's become a bit of a problem.
I have been as respectful as possible to support xmoo, his source, and everyone that is helping me.
Dude has been respectful enough to mention his work is based off mine, and tell you what parts exactly are based on my work.
You haven't given anyone from the community any credit. Please don't be a mooch. that's just lame.

Wtf come down everone. I would had been better i all those custom bulid had come together into one but that would be in a perfect world o well. I will stick with the dude m=bulid intill Tmobile comes out with the up date then i will say see yay sucker JF bulid will be better becouse it uesd the bug free one.

Trust me when I say russians can be quite rude unintentionally but yes some designated 'props' are in order as well as a "spec" list of where the build is.
Haykuro- I would pm this but I have a feeling your box gets overcrowded so let me just say a considerable donation would be made to you if you could produce a build based off the current G build that would allow my wife to switch back and forth between russian and english as she chooses for text etc.
Its great that more and more people are creating custom roms. I love options!
it would be even better if everyone would work together on one build instead of a half dozen different builds....

Dude's G build has Russian locale in it. Look at the screenshots, see if you like it.
There's an option of installing Russian VK (3rd screenshot) into any build, it was on the market at some point... not anymore though. I still have it somewhere. Let me know if you need it, I"ll send it to you. It's fairly simple VK, no spell check, no auto correction but it does the job.
Good luck.
no chinese fonts. no busybox....……
Hey come on you guys. This guy has come on here to show us another version of Android. Lets discuss his version instead of Dude's, or JF's or Haykuro's. We can discuss theirs in their threads.

[DEV] CDMA Hero Kernel Source

The CDMA Hero kernel source is out as you can see here (22 Jan 2010).
Direct download source here.
Mirrors:
Mediafire: link
DarkTremor: link
Gigasize: link
TurboUpload: link
and so the floodgates have opened
Well folks here it is. I am going to bed. Its 415est. I bet by the time I wake up u crazy devs will have ripped this **** appart limb from coded limb. Good luck.
I don't know a whole lot about this so excuse the noob question but does this mean we don't have to run 1.5 anymore and can finally have an up to date operating system like 2.0 or 2.1??

We already have 1.6, 2.0, 2.0.1 & 2.1 ROMs out for the CDMA Hero, but the release of the kernel source means we have the means to improve on the performance of the kernel, porting to 2.6.29 (which is the true kernel 1.6 SDK4, 2.0, 2.0.1 & 2.1 use) & proper drivers for all the hardware.
Just on a side note, it's weird but HTC double tarball'd the source.
IT'S A TRAP! lol.
^ lol...i been refreshing the HERO CDMA Forum's all freakin night..waiting for the devs to show up LOL

How do you mean? I see a bzip-ed tarball (.tar.bz2).
Man it's nice to finally see this. First step: finding proof of kernel modifications and therefore HTC's months-long violation of the GPL!
Sorry I screwed up my last post I know we have those roms available what I meant was we will finally have a fully functional 1.6,2.0 or.2.1 correct?
Thank you for the mirror -- I was repeatedly unable to complete a download direct from HTC, and was starting to get worried. Your mirrored file seems perfectly intact, however, and for that I am grateful.
Cheers!
Something tells me the devs here are gonna have lots of fun with this over the weekend!

as much as I agree with you on we need to find that they actually did violate GPL I dont think that they should be hassled about it at this oint just document the facts. What was it exactly that they violated how long where they in violation. and keep a link to the "Attempts to get kernel source code thread" so that if the issue does come up again then we have actual documentation on their practices with open source code.
Just my opinion
Very exciting
very exciting indeed. finally...we can say thanks to HTC

Any one else notice all this useless crap..like a CDRom driver?? WTH.
EDIT:
There is a lot of stuff in here that seems useless, mostly stuff for a full linux kernel. We should surely be able to make the foorprint drasticly smaller if all this stuff is getting compiled into it. Why would we need PowerPC or IA64 stuff???
http://geekfor.me/news/sprint-kernel-compiled/
I just wanted to post and say that I have successfully compiled it (thanks to toast for the pep talk ) and I am currently running a beta of fresh rom that is using the new kernel. While it is 100% stock and no changes have been made to it, this test will help show what we can do with it! Keep an eye out for exciting things.

By the way, toast and others have noticed (and it seems I can confirm) that HTC's power management might be closed source and isn't included. This means that even though the screen turns off and it reports that it's sleeping it might drain quicker than normal.

I agree, sort of. I'm not advocating for punishment, but this has to stop here. HTC should have been checking in these (rather minor, as far as I can see) modifications into to a central repository (GIT) where they can be used, improved, etc. The kernel is now months older and better, with hundred/thousands of updates, and now this stuff has to be merged. Apart from the relative pain of doing this, it highlights how unhelpful HTC's release methods are.
They have to be made to understand that this is unacceptable. An open letter, perhaps, showing line-by-line GPL violations does that.
What I want may be different from some here: I want a universal kernel that compiles and runs everywhere (with device-specific configs, libs and "drivers" added as needed). That's one of the powers of Linux (kernel), working on a common code set, improving it together. There are kernel hackers doing amazing things for Android (look at the cm-kernel commits to see what I mean) and we benefit from none of them if we are stuck without code or hacking a codebase from four months ago.
Sorry, this must be residual frustration still at work

I completely understand however hounding them now about just how late this release is does nothing productive. As I have heard several people say, if it becomes to much of a bother dealing with everyone they may just decide to drop the system all together, and that in my opinion would be a shame becuase the do make a very nice product. If we just keep this in mind and keep a link to all of this then if/when they release another cool device without releasing the code when they are supposed to then we can refer them and anyone else that may catch wind back to this to prove that they have a history of violation. and that may get farther than starting from square one trying to pressure them for the code for a defferent device.
and as much as you may and many others may want a universal kernel, I doubt that will ever happen just like with linux look how many variations there are to it. which I feel is one of the many reasons that it has not taken more market share from windows.
So HTC's change window is every 4th Friday. Please enjoy .

[ONLINEKITCHEN] CyanogenMod (STABLE) [UPDATED 30/03 - v4.2.15.1]

By request (and since my other half runs a HTC Magic, hehe), following on from my Hero, Pulse and Nexus One kitchens and most importantly with the permission of the legend himself that is cyanogen, i'm pleased to present a 'MoDaCo online kitchen' version of Cyanogen's v4.2.15.1 ROM.
Note: As with all of the kitchens, this online kitchen is currently only available to my MoDaCo premium members (those who have signed up to MoDaCo Ad Free or MoDaCo Plus) as it is not yet running on an infrastructure that can support a huge number of users. I don't collect donations - signing up for a MoDaCo premium membership supports future development in many areas and gives you access to great services now and exciting developments in the future!
This is the first CyanogenMod kitchen - if there's something else you'd like configurable in the kitchen, post here or in the kitchen topic and due to the nature of the system, changes can be deployed very rapidly! Of course, let me know if there are any issues too, this is v1 after all.
Click here to view the Online Kitchen at MoDaCo.
Update: a prebaked ROM for Dream / 32B Sapphire and one for 32A Sapphire are now available for ANYONE to download! Sample the kitchen's delights for yourself!
Base configuration (standard CyanogenMod with HTC IME) - download MD5: f1e923f8992911e0c5e8fcaae64ff069
Base configuration (standard CyanogenMod with HTC IME) for 32A devices- download MD5: c65de4774d9b4b704d928cf7f189927d
Enjoy!
P
Update: the online kitchen is now running on new dedicated hardware. Please bear with us as we tune performance and configuration and report any issues via PM!

very nice
Looks pretty cool =)
this is pretty cool.

While I appreciate the effort - you basically used Cyanogens ROM to make a kitchen so you can profit off it. This is all just a way to sell your subscriptions.
I like a lot of the stuff you do, but this is kind of not cool.

Because this requires special infrastructure on the host to glue the pieces together and sign the package, requiring nontrivial amounts of processor time, then must serve the custom file, requiring nontrivial disk space. Neither of those is FREE.
Though a potentially useful variant would be to cache every ROM it produces for up to, say, 48 hours, with the countdown reset each time that configuration is requested (and served immediately from the cache). Classic time/space tradeoff, there, but if certain configurations are popular, probably worth it. Though, for all I know, Paul does this.
This is quite cool and similar to something a couple of us proposed on the TheOfficial AOSP/ADP/TMO thread. We ended up with theme profiles, which are heavier (larger download) but don't require the infrastructure. Always love to see alternate solutions, though!
I think you guys are misunderstanding..
modaco is not charging for CM Roms, he is charging for a service he provides. In this case, it is making it easy for people to 1) stop clogging this forum with repeat posts.. over... and over......... and over again, and 2) customize their ROMS to their liking without having to invest a lot of time figuring out how to themselves.
By saying he should be giving this away for free, you are essentially saying that someone like Red Hat should GIVE it's support away for free. I mean, how can a company make a profit off of open source software that other people have helped write??!?!?
This is no different. That is how companies like Red Hat make their money, it's their bread and butter. Not to mention, they provide Certification avenues, this is just one other way they are "making money off other peoples hard work", according to the outraged ones in this thread.
i personally think this is pretty neat, considering I have been through the learning curve of rooting my phone and trying to customize a ROM; It worked but it took me a bit before I got it right and actually was able to use my update.zip. Thanks Modaco
Listen, I'm saying anything about what he has done or how much time was put into the project.
But before I start my argument let's give it a couple days to see how it does; assuming the stats are correct on his site.
If you don't wanna use it, don't.
All the kitchens to date have been for my ROMs, I put Cynoagen's ROM into a kitchen - with his permission - because a) people asked and b) I find it useful.

Because this requires special infrastructure on the host to glue the pieces together and sign the package, requiring nontrivial amounts of processor time, then must serve the custom file, requiring nontrivial disk space. Neither of those is FREE.

Yeah, i'm caching each ROM produced, but the number of variants is HUGE and takes a LOT of disk space, so caching isn't actually as valuable as you think. With my Hero ROM IIRC I generated about 500 ROMs before I started to see any real benefit from caching. Crazy!

Now, this is something I might be interested in, depending of course on the type of functionality it will have.
By the way, I don't want to rain on your parade but I just think your current version of the project should be free; that's all.
I remember someone in the the XDA WM forums created a kitchen for roms and cabs and it was pretty cool.
I like your project but will it only work for a specific Cyan rom?

Call for help!
I want to start an android project to support most of the old and outdated devices. But for that I'm going to need some help.
Android developers who know their code and can write up new features or fix existing bugs.
Talented themers who have an eye for the beautiful and can design some nice UIs
Kernel developers who can read and write code that is pretty much a foreign language for me.
If you think you fit into one (or more) of these categories please contact me (PM, email, twitter, snail mail, etc) and together we shall rule the android world. You will be greatly rewarded for your efforts. Anything I get from developing this thing (which is pretty much nothing) I shall share with you. Kings will envy our wealth and popularity!
But seriously now. Don't be shy and contact me. It could be a great project for some old phones.
You area a wonderful man popdog

For the launcher, you may have to pull trebuchet from cm10, or ask nova or apex if you can include their ICS launcher as a prebuilt. I'd be glad to help out, but I don't have the optimus 1, just the optimus V.
Sent from my One V using Tapatalk
i think for theming you should get help from neko and fundoozz
Nah.. I can fix the launcher. I don't have to replace it. This is just an early Christmas present
Another JB development.. good work!!
First of all u r a hero for us popdog now can u brief what works and what dont thanxs

Quite expected Best of luck Popdog123!
Good to see someone working on a Jelly Bean AOSP port..
Hopefully this reaches a stable state as none of them actually did..
AOSP GB by lupohirp, AOSP ICS by me..
Well, times change, priorities change...
Great work popdog!
Lookin forward to this...
Sent from my LG-P500 using Tapatalk 2
Good to see another JB from popdog..
i will try today
Watch out, popdog is attracting all the talented devs to the dark side, and they will rule the android world by making people buy lower end devices that are cheap and good, up-to-date (actually, O1 is still on eMag.ro)
Watch out for the sith (lol android doesn't have this word, it autocorrects)
Don't let Galaxy S3 users find out!!!
But this is great work, thank you for continuing your work
Sent from my LG-P500
Awesome project right there popdog. You can ask help to me when you want,I've had a hand into ICS and JB AOSP code. So did RockR172,guess he'd be glad to help you too
Well so far I've moved my repos to a github organization, made an irc chatroom, google code for holding downloads and a little blog for documenting the whole process. I'll explain more about it in the weekend.
Please spread the word about this. Together we can make better roms for these devices.
In the meantime enjoy this rom. I'm using it for 2 days now and aside from the issues i've posted I can't say anything bad about it.

where is this github at?
It would be great if this word gets to the top devs of other devices like Gio, Ace, Blade, Mini, X8 etc. Anybody having contacts?
Can always count on popdog123 to bring something different to the game. Will keep an eye on this one, thanks dude :good:
It will be good if the blog that podog has made will have tutorials for newbie users too. And yes...could you provide with us with a link to the blog. I could also help you with that newbie tutorials . If you can make that in time you'll have more support.
Alright... tomorrow i'll send you everyone who was interested in this project a PM on XDA.
The sources for the AOSP build are on the project Github.
Even though the developer turnout was not as great as I expected, we can still make a great project!

Philosophy and Goals
Android is an open-source software stack for mobile phones and other devices.
Origin and Goal
Android was originated by a group of companies known as the Open Handset Alliance, led by Google. Today, many companies -- both original members of the OHA and others -- have invested heavily in Android, typically in the form of allocating significant engineering resources to improve Android and bring Android devices to Market.
We created Android in response to our own experiences launching mobile apps. We wanted to make sure that there would always be an open platform available for carriers, OEMs, and developers to use to make their innovative ideas a reality. We wanted to make sure that there was no central point of failure, where one industry player could restrict or control the innovations of any other. The solution we chose was an open and open-source platform.
The goal of the Android Open Source Project is to create a successful real-world product that improves the mobile experience for end users.
Governance Philosophy
The companies that have invested in Android have done so on its merits, because we believe that an open platform is necessary. Android is intentionally and explicitly an open-source -- as opposed to free software -- effort: a group of organizations with shared needs has pooled resources to collaborate on a single implementation of a shared product. The Android philosophy is pragmatic, first and foremost. The objective is a shared product that each contributor can tailor and customize.
Uncontrolled customization can, of course, lead to incompatible implementations. To prevent this, the AOSP also maintains the Android Compatibility Program, which spells out what it means to be "Android compatible", and what is required of device builders to achieve that status. Anyone can (and will!) use the Android source code for any purpose, and we welcome all such uses. However, in order to take part in the shared ecosystem of applications that we are building around Android, device builders must participate in the Compatibility Program.
Though Android consists of multiple sub-projects, this is strictly a project-management technique. We view and manage Android as a single, holistic software product, not a "distribution", specification, or collection of replaceable parts. Our intent is that device builders port Android to a device; they don't implement a specification or curate a distribution.
How We Work
We know that quality does not come without hard work. Along with many partners, Google has contributed full-time engineers, product managers, UI designers, Quality Assurance, and all the other roles required to bring modern devices to market. We roll the open source administration and maintenance into the larger product development cycle.
At any given moment, there is a current latest release of the Android platform. This typically takes the form of a branch in the tree.
Device builders and Contributors work with the current latest release, fixing bugs, launching new devices, experimenting with new features, and so on.
In parallel, Google works internally on the next version of the Android platform and framework, working according to the product's needs and goals. We develop the next version of Android by working with a device partner on a flagship device whose specifications are chosen to push Android in the direction we believe it should go.
When the "n+1"th version is ready, it will be published to the public source tree, and become the new latest release.

I'm coming from cile's build, and made a full wipe, being sure i'm clean
Good job DK, I was wondering though since I read your post on cile's thread what are the differences between this rom and cile's.
Are you continuing where cile left or is it a new rom? One more thing I noticed is that this is using an older kernel (3.0.36) when cile's was on 3.0.50.
Anyway I'm leeching now, gonna give it a try a bit later.
Awesome will download while at work, my question is what's different from Ciles rom apart from the kernel? I don't want to go do the whole set up since I have change a lot on the build.prop and apn
