Hi guys, I've been hiding out over on slate droid for a bit - I picked up a pandigital novel for free and I've been working on getting it to run things other than eclair. I have a working honeycomb port for it - woot - butttt pandigital refuses to release kernel source code for the device. velocity micro released a cookie cutter version of the same device and won't give up the kernel source either so heres the trouble - without a new kernel module honeycomb and gingerbread have no wifi.
Is it possible to compile a generic kernel module or a signed one for this kernel with no kernel source? Help please.
Maybe the full might of xda could get pandigital to fork over the source code but seeing as how we don't have a pandigital section demand for this is low here. I'm disgusted by the way these companies have been stealing open source software.

There's a link to the issue - I'm not sure if it's polite to link to another forum here - mods remove it if you like. That entire thread would be here on xda if we had a novel device forum
See u back at SLatedroid.

I am new to android development and started messing around and building the example source in Eclipse Helios. When I do new project > existing source and open up the Mms.apk source (stock, from android's git hub, it says the source has errors and they need to be fixed before I can build.
I tried this on my Ubuntu 10.10 machine and used repo to get the entire android source, thinking maybe having the entire platform source would help. I'm still unable to build the source so any edits I do are useless.
Can someone tell me what I'm missing? I know I'm doing something wrong or skipping something, but I can't figure it out.
Thanks

sorry to double post but i'm not sure why it says "Resolved", i think the app made me add it in or something. anyways the status is still currently unresolved. any help much appreciated.
bump??? i hate that it says resolved there...
This is a port from the Orange Monte Carlo (ZTE Skate) to run on the ZTE Blade.
It's totally de-branded & customised to be similar to Ginger Stir Fry, a lot of stuff had to be borrowed from GSF to make it work.
It has Dolby audio processing.
Bluetooth doesn't work. Wifi tether only works with a 3rd party app (included). There may be other bugs.
This is my final attempt at this, there will be no further updates or support.

The kernel used in this rom was released by ZTE without source code, nothing I can do about that, sorry. You can email ZTE to complain here: [email protected]

This question is more directed towards developers, but anyone who knows feel free to contribute.
Recently i have downloaded the android source code on ubuntu and the SDK, got virtual device running and adb for my g2x. My question is now that i have the source code in my "WORKING_DIRECTORY" how can i link eclipse to the source code, and run my source in virtual device.
To sum up the question im looking for guide on creating own custom rom, it would be nice to be pointed in the right direction
Do u want to build the from from stock or CM sources

g2x, whatever is easier the get me going and understanding the concepts, So to answer the question working from stock
Hello,
I have been following this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1991320&page=1 where icoolguy1995 has managed to create a ROM for the Allwinner A13 tablet.
Unfortunately, like many ROMs, the source code is not immediately available for further development. Basically I signed up to this forum because I planned to ask him for the source code, but as I cannot post in the developer's forum, I cannot.
I also notice that this is a reoccurring theme with new ROMs posted on XDA - the source code is often missing, and I was wondering what people's thoughts on this issue were?

You could just PM the creator, you don't need to post in a certain thread to do that. This is the course of action that would make the most sense, anyway.

Depending on the base ROM there may not be source available. Only the kernel source is available as most stock ROMs are closed sourced.

The source code to the Equiso Pro kernel has been released.
I am starting this thread in hopes of getting a development effort started on a custom android build for the pro device which is based on the Nufront NS115 SoC.
I am willing to put up 30$ towards a pool for a bounty for such a custom ROM. I might also be convinced to ship a PRO unit to a verified developer who is willing to assist me and others with this effort.
Anyone interested?
Ill add to the pool. Ill also include the source code
saw a post that cyanogenmod devs may of gotten a few. some are probably xda members too
