can someone explain to me if you were to find the android 3.0-3.2 firmware and or source code files that are used on a tablet (obviously itd be a honeycomb os), with the source code file could work on porting a honeycomb rom be attempted ? or is the firmware/source code im speaking of incorrect of whats needed in rom development. I found an article and have downloaded what was both labeled source code (there were versions used by manufacturer for android 3.0 -3.2) i downloaded the 3.0 version of the "source code" and i also downloaded a matching version of the firmware for android 3.0 used by manufacturer. just looking for more insight before i start posting links or anything, want to make sure I'm giving accurate information .

Given that Google has not officially released the source code, you'd be posting warez which is against forum rules. Once Google officially releases source, devs could try to port it to the G2x but with ICS so close to being released/announced, I bet most people would wait for that since it officially supports smaller and lower resolution screens like the ones in phones.
Your correct google has not but other manufactures of tablets using honeycomb have. Following the general public license released the source code which has been made aware of to google by said manufacture. The source code as well as firm ware is readily available without by passing anytype of payment or "pirating" . So how would this be considered warez?
I was under the impression that they only released their specific bits of code and not the entire source code. I may be wrong, this isn't something I've been watching closely.
I don't think Honeycomb has been released yet. All custom roms are stock based. We have OC/UV kernels but the roms are just slight variants of stock.

Maybe i misread something , but if you google something along the lines of asus honeycomb source code, you'll find a link to asustek which has said source code for various versions of honeycomb , ie 3.0-3.2 don't quote me on it being 100% being what people are looking for just something i stumbled across
INTRESTING NEWS!!!:
Over at our Android Open-Source Project git servers,the source code
for Android version 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) is now available.
Here's how to get it:Follow the instructions at
http://source.android.com/source/downloading.htmlCheck out the
'ics-release' branch:repo init -u
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-4.0.1_r1
That's it! However since this is a large push, please be aware that it
will take some time to complete. If you sync before it's done, you'll
get an incomplete copy that you won't be able to use, so please wait
for us to give the all-clear before you sync.
This is actually the source code for version 4.0.1 of Android, which
is the specific version that will ship on the Galaxy Nexus, the first
Android 4.0 device. In the source tree, you will find a device build
target named "full_maguro" that you can use to build a system image
for Galaxy Nexus. Build configurations for other devices will come
later.
Unfortunately we still don't have our Gerrit code review servers back
online. That remains our top priority though, and we hope to have them
back soon.
This release includes the full history of the Android source code
tree, which naturally includes all the source code for the Honeycomb
releases. However, since Honeycomb was a little incomplete, we want
everyone to focus on Ice Cream Sandwich. So, we haven't created any
tags that correspond to the Honeycomb releases (even though the
changes are present in the history.)

Hey dude, this is the development section. If you wanna post in here, you better have something to offer.
If you wanna post relevant news updates, shouldn't it go in the general section or something? Just sayin'

Sounds alot like a development related post when a source code is out
Developement means something you've developed, all developers know the source is out, that's why we don't need a thread in Dev, also this is like the 5th thread I've moved to general about the subject..

Hi,
Altough this is just the skeleton of it, let me share what I've set up until now.
I've also started a dedicated Google group here: https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en&fromgroups#!members/renesas-emev-osp
Anyone interested in contributing to develpment, plesae join!
1) Android
https://github.com/ffxx68/Renesas-device_emev
This is the entry-point to the GitHub repositories where I would put all the modification to the AOSP code which are specific to the Renesas EMEV for our Open Source Project.
Have a look at the README for further details and follow the progress, or open discussions, on our Google group.
2) Kernel
https://github.com/ffxx68/RenesasEV2-BSPGB-Kernel
This is the public GitHub repository for the 2.6.35.7 Kernel source code. It is customized to emxx code and it includes for the moment only the LCD patch that is necessary for the most common tablet (the kernel base code is aimed at the development board instead).
Same as above, anyone can contribute directly here.
3) Bootloader
https://github.com/ffxx68/RenesasEV2-bootloader
This is the public GitHub repository for the bootloader source code. It includes a patch for the 4 DDR tablet models.
I don't expect this to be changed much, but anyone can contribute directly pushing new files over here too.
4) Packaging
Some more details about how to wrap-up a fresh build and make a firmware for the tablet are found in the README mentieod above.
I've managed to boot Android from an SD card (see here: https://github.com/ffxx68/Renesas-BootSD) and I think a similar approach should be followed, at least for initial testing.
Kind of late to the party, but I'm really interested in this project... I applied to the Google Group, but I notice that the EV2 AOSP page you listed is gone... is there a specific reason for this? I would really love to contribute to this.
Hi, and welcome aboard!
I have edited a couple links above, which have changed a bit since then.
Thanks
I'm facing a problem with the touchscreen driver, which I have filed in the group list as well:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/renesas-emev-osp/smcwddwvNDo
(answer over there, if possible).
I can't understand why the driver for the touchscreen (found in drivers/input/touchscreen/pixcir_i2c_ts.c) is not loaded during the kernel init stages.
The touchkeys driver (ekt2201) is very similar in code structure and it's loaded as expected, while the _probe function of the PixCir is never called. This is the fragment from the dmesg kernel log:
...
<4>ekt2201_init
<4>ekt2201_i2c_ts_probe
<6>input: ekt2201 as /devices/i2c-0/0-0010/input/input0
<4>ekt2201:i2c_add_driver 0
<4>emxx_tsixcir_i2c_init
<4>emxx_tsixcir:i2c_add_driver 0
...
Note as the input device is created for the ekt2201 as the _probe is called, while the same doesn't happen for the pixcir.
Anyone with a clue?
thanks

What is OpenPDroid?
OpenPDroid is a set of modifications to the Android framework and libraries which allows fine-tuning of the data which applications are able to retrieve about your device, your account, your messages, and more. Specifically, it is a Privacy service provider (using the PDroid 1.51 interface) forked from CollegeDev's PDroid 2.0, which is itself an extension of Syvat's PDroid.
A word to the wise
I'm just adding this for those who are just looking at OpenPDroid, or are trying to work out how to get involved.
Mateor, wbedard and I are currently in the process of moving repositories etc to a github 'organisation' in order to make it much easier for users to know which are the latest patches, where to report issues, etc. I expect this will be done soon (in the next day or so), and I'll post more information then.
Thanks for your suggestions on ways of managing repositories, patches, etc.
What does it do?
When configured using either FFU5y's PDroid Manager or CollegeDev's PDroid 2.0 App (up to v1.52), OpenPDroid intervenes in API interactions by apps (e.g. when an app attempts to retrieve your location, phone number, or contacts) and provides either real data, empty data, fake data, or random data, depending on the user setting. Unlike apps which actually remove permissions, OpenPDroid does not actually modify the permissions that an app has and so is much less likely to cause the app to crash as a result of data access being denied.
Note that CollegeDev's PDroid 2.0 App does not officially support OpenPDroid, so please don't contact CollegeDev for support if you're having problems with PDroid 2.0 App with OpenPDroid. You can post here, and we may be able to help you.
PDroid Manager does officially support OpenPDroid.
The complete list of data and functions controlled by OpenPDroid can be found at the end of this post, in What (specifically) can I control with OpenPDroid?, but at present it is identical to that offered by PDroid 2.0
For a list of issues which have been identified, please see below the Known Issues.
What makes OpenPDroid different to CollegeDev's PDroid 2.0 or Syvat's PDroid
There are a few differentiators, some technical, and some are philosophical or pragmatic. Both are important
Technical
Two major security issues are fixed, which allow apps to bypass many or all PDroid or PDroid 2.0 settings. (We are in the process of notifying CollegeDev of these issues, and sample code will not be released for at least a week to give him a chance to fix the problems in PDroid 2.0. Fixes have been added to PDroid in auto-patcher, so if you are using PDroid please consider re-patching your ROM).
It is available for Android 4.2.1
Database access threading has been rewritten, as the implementation actually caused bottlenecks and didn't protect from simultaneous read-writes (which is generally the goal of this type of code)
A bug which was causing 'null pointer exceptions' to occur (but not a crash) is fixed.
Other code tidy-up or restructuring which doesn't change functionality
Non-technical
The intention of OpenPDroid is to have a PDroid version which is developed in the open, and which welcomes (although doesn't necessarily always adopt) user input - especially code. This means that the source for OpenPDroid versions in progress is on a public repository (Github at the moment), that changes are put into the Github as they are made, and that other people can contribute code to it. We also hope that by having engaging people more in the development process, there will be more eyes trying to understand the code, and so security-related issues will be identified and address more efficiently.
We also want to make the discussion/decision making processes for what is in and what is out transparent, so that users can understand why some things are included and others are not, and actually influence the decision-making process.
How do I install it?
There are two 'supported' ways to install OpenPDroid:
mateor's auto-patcher (available for OS X, Linux and Windows) is the recommended way if you are not familiar with building from source, and have a supported ROM (CM10, CM10.1, AOKP Jellybean 4.1.2, AOKP Jellybean 4.2.1, AOSP 4.1.2, and AOSP 4.2.1).
Patch and build a ROM from source (see How do I compile a ROM with OpenPDroid). Patches are provided for: CM10, CM10.1, AOKP jb, AOKP jb-mr1, AOSP 4.1.2, AOSP 4.2.1
If you are using a stock ROM, then someone may have implemented OpenPDroid into that ROM - and if they have, they deserve huge credit because it is a difficult and unpleasant job.
Currently we are not aware of any ROMs which include OpenPDroid: if you are aware of one, please notify us and we'll list it here.
There are several reasons your preferred ROM may not currently be supported. First, adding support for a ROM in auto-patcher requires building the ROM with the OpenPDroid patches. We are only able to do this if the source is available for the ROM. (Note: strictly speaking, it is possible to build patches for ROMs where source is not available, as for stock ROMs. However, for non-stock ROMs the rate of change makes this fairly unmaintainable).
Second, there are a great many ROMs out there and it is not possible for us to build for all these ROMs. However, if you are able to patch source and build, then you may be able to build a version of your preferred ROM with OpenPDroid support - and even better, contribute patches for your preferred ROM to auto-patcher. For more details about contributing patches to auto-patcher, please contact Mateor.
How do I get the source?
The source is available as patches, or in complete form, from the OpenPDroid repositories
The source-code patches from the OpenPDroidPatches repository: . Note that there are two branches: 4.2.1 and 4.1.2. These source patches presently work against numerous roms (including CM 10/10.1, AOKP 4.1.2/4.2.1, AOSP 4.1.2/4.2.1, and potentially others)
[*] Complete repositories for the modified sections of the system are likewise located in the [URL=https://github.com/OpenPDroid/]OpenPDroid github. There are several repositories and branches; see the section 'What are all these repos and branches?' for more details about the content of the github.
What is the licence?
PDroid was under under the GPL v3 licence (as shown on the Google Code page), and as a result all derivative works (e.g. OpenPDroid) are likewise under the GPL v3 (or later) licence. Thus, OpenPDroid is under the GPL v3 licence, with no additional special conditions. The only way a PDroid derivative can be under any other licence is if the author contacts Syvat, gets him to agree provide PDroid under another licence, and then the author extends it.
Who's work is it?
PDroid was original developed by Syvat (with contributions and ports from others such as Pastime1971 and Mateor), and then CollegeDev extended it to created PDroid 2.0 (previously called PDroid Addon, then PDroid Extension). PDroid 2.0 has been forked by FFU5y, Mateor and wbedard to create OpenPDroid. Thus, OpenPDroid is the product of the work of many.
The following list includes all the contributors I know of for any of these version of the core (in alphabetical order):
CollegeDev (PDroid 2.0)
FFU5y (OpenPDroid)
Mateor (Porting PDroid to 4.x, porting PDroid 2.0 to 4.1.2, OpenPDroid)
Pastime1971 (Porting PDroid to 4.x, porting PDroid 2.0 to 4.1.2)
Syvat (PDroid)
Wbedard (OpenPDroid)
How do I report issues?
The best way to report an issue is to lodge it in github, although you may want to also post in this thread to let others know that the issue exists (and has been lodged). Please ensure you provide details of the issue you are experiencing (i.e. under what circumstances does it happen, what do you observe, etc) and please include a logcat: see how to get a logcat.
If you don't have a Github account, you can post the issue here (and note that you haven't lodged it in Github) so one of the team can add the issue to Github.
I want to contribute
Great! The whole point of OpenPDroid is to encourage community contribution in the form of ideas, testing, code, etc.
Presently, there isn't really a lot (read: any) documentation about how OpenPDroid works. However, this will be forthcoming, as will an API specification for the Privacy service, which will allow you to write your own management application (like PDroid Manager or the PDroid 2.0 App) if you so desire.
Right now, these are the particular areas of the service which would benefit from developer/code contributions.
Transient caching of privacy settings read from the database, ideally with destruction of cache entries when they are too old or memory conditions are low
Refining the locking code to ensure that reads are not unduly held up by write locks (note: this isn't a problem *yet*, but will be with the inclusion of batch support. More details soon).
Other performance optimisations
Adding good quality code comments - mainly function descriptions, etc
Back-porting of OpenPDroid to pre-4.1.2, so users currently only able to use PDroid can move to OpenPDroid and get the new features.
There are many other things you can work on, including adding whole new options (i.e. security features). If you are planning on creating new security features, however, please lodge the enhancement in github first so it can be discussed. Not every feature which seems like a good idea will be a good fit for OpenPDroid, and it may save some time if a prospective feature can be refined before it is fully coded.
How do I compile a ROM with OpenPDroid
To build a ROM with OpenPDroid, you will need to patch the source code using the provided patches, and then build as you normally would.
To patch the source:
Download the most relevant of the source code patch packages attached to this post
Extract the patch files from the package
On the command line, go to the root of your Android source code: it will contain folders such as 'build', 'frameworks', 'vendor', etc.
Patch the source code with each patch file using the following command
Code:
patch -p1 < <patch_filename>
You can then build your ROM as you would normally.
If you have previously built the ROM in the folder you are using, or you have previously built PDroid 2.0, Syvat's original PDroid, etc it can be helpful to delete the following directories:
out/target/common/obj/JAVA_LIBRARIES/framework_intermediates
out/target/common/obj/JAVA_LIBRARIES/framework2_intermediates
out/target/common/obj/JAVA_LIBRARIES/telephony-common_intermediates
Not all of these directories will exist for all ROMs, so if you try to delete one and it is missing that is not cause for concern.
What (specifically) can I control with OpenPDroid?
Currently, access to the following data and functions can be controlled (note this list exactly matches PDroid 2.0):
Code:
[b]Data access:[/b]
Device ID (IMEI/MEID/ESN)
Phone/voicemail number
Sim Card Serial (ICCID)
Subscriber ID (IMSI)
Source number of incoming calls
Destination number of outgoing calls
Network location
GPS location
Authentication credentials
List of accounts, including identifiers (e.g. gmail e-mail address)
Contact list and details
Call log
Calendar
Read and send SMS
Read and send MMS
Record audio (not phone calls)
Camera
Browser bookmarks and history
System logs
Wifi Info, such as current access point, IP address
Network information (detailed network information such as connection state, IP address, etc)
Android ID (a unique installation ID for your Android installation)
SIM information (your phone operator and country)
Restrict access to iptables command
ICC Access (reading or writing SMS on the SIM or R-UIM)
[b]Actions:[/b]
Make phone calls
Start on Boot (or more accurately, get notified when the boot is complete)
Switch Wifi State (turn wifi on and off, change access points)
Switch network state (turn off or on mobile data)
[b]Other[/b]
Force online state (always tell the app that the device is online: only needed if denying Wifi info and/or Network info)
Known Issues
Thanks to those users who have posted bug details, we now have a list of known issues. I have tried to indicate which will be fixed in the next release, but it is tentative. These issues can also be found (and discussed) on the github issues list
Requests for tower location are always blocked (ETA unknown)
Device lags when GPS is active (ETA: next release; experimental fix in 'devel' branch of 4.2.1-based ROMs: same fix as the below camera lag issue)
Camera lags when OpenPDroid is installed (ETA: next release; experimental fix in 'devel' branch of 4.2.1-based ROMs)
What are all these repos and branches?
In the github account containing the OpenPDroid repositories, there are numerous repositories. Many of these are OpenPdroid related: but not quite all of them. In addition, not all of them are relevant to each ROM.
The main repositories to be aware of are:
platform_frameworks_base
This contains the framework/base/* code, which constitutes the most important guts of OpenPDroid in 4.1.2 and 4.2.1. Other projects sometimes use the name android_frameworks_base for this.
platform_frameworks_opt_telephony
This contains the framework/opt/telephony code, which was split out from framework/base/* in 4.2.1.
platform_build
This contains the build code, mostly makefiles, and is present in 4.1.2 and 4.2.1.
platform_libcore
This contains core operational code outside of the framework (e.g. executing shell tasks, etc).
platform_packages_apps_mms
This contains the code for the Mms app, for 4.1.2 and 4.2.1.
platform_packages_apps_mms
This contains the code for the Mms app, which is modified to affect the ability of apps to send and receive MMS.
platform_packages_apps_videoeditor
This contais the code for the VideoEditor app. The only change here is including 'framework2', which is only required for AOSP 4.1.2.
platform_system_core
This contais a range of important core code, and is modified only for AOSP 4.1.2 to include 'framework2.jar' in the paths included at boot time.
The branches used include two key naming components. First, the rom:
e.g.
cm-10.1* = CyanogenMod 10.1
cm-jellybean* = CyanogenMod 10, cutting edge
cm-jellybean-stable* = CyanogenMod 10, stable release
aokp-jb-mr1* = AOKP 4.2.1-based
aokp-jb* (without the mr1) = AOKP 4.1.2-based
jb-mr0* = AOSP 4.1.2
jb-mr1* = AOSP 4.2.1
pa-jellybean* = ParanoidAndroid (currently buggy)
then the OpenPDroid version:
-openpdroid = the current stable release of OpenPDroid
-openpdroid-devel = the current development line of OpenPDroid
For development, the jb-mr1-release-openpdroid-devel is where I do my initial development, and I think expand it to be on the other -devel branches once I've tested it a bit.
FAQ
How do I include PDroid Manager in the ROM I am building so it can update from Google Play: see here
How do I include PDroid Manager in the ROM I am building so it is compiled during build: see here: TamCore provided a fix for the problem he mentioned, and it has been merged.
How do I build using the bleeding-edge (devel) code: see here, although there is a bit more to it than that. I'll provide extra details when time permits, but the important stuff is in this thread.
I have a question or issue not covered in this post
We'll be adding more to this post in the next day or two. Please be patient =)
Note to mods
I wasn't sure if this belonged in this forum, or in 'Apps and Games' but since it is not trivial to install I figured this was a safer bet.

Thank you!!!! I'll test
Sent from my LG-P920 using xda app-developers app
Announcement: OpenPDroid build patches, as well as the entire history of the PDroid framework, have been rebuilt and restructured and pushed to our github page. There are build patches for all Android versions from 2.3 to current. You can also take a look at the commit history of the original PDroid framework by svyat, from initial commit to the point where he halted development, 1.32 for gingerbread.
Build patches are here.
PDroid project history is here.
OpenPdroid for Android 4.2.1/4.2.2
These are the current build patches for Android 4.2.1 and 4.2.2 and should generally reflect the current state of the jb-mr1-release-openpdroid branch. The latest commist are not always reflected in the build patches, bleeding-edge development is in the -devel branches.
We realize that the patch/branch situation is not perfect, it is work in progress.
These build patches should work for most roms. As of their creation (1/17/13) they applied cleanly to AOKP, AOSP, Cyanogenmod, ParanoidAndroid and others.
The current best advice as to how to apply/remove them is below. Some easier application methods are being discussed.
To Apply
Code:
cd ~/android/system/build; git checkout -b pdroid; patch -p1 < ~/openpdroid_4.2.1_build.patch
cd ~/android/system/libcore; git checkout -b pdroid; patch -p1 < openpdroid_4.2.1_libcore.patch
cd ~/android/system/packages/apps/Mms; git checkout -b pdroid; patch -p1 < openpdroid_4.2.1_Mms.patch
cd ~/android/system/frameworks/base; git checkout -b pdroid; patch -p1 < openpdroid_4.2.1_frameworks_base.patch
cd ~/android/system/frameworks/opt/telephony; git checkout -b pdroid; patch -p1 < ~/openpdroid_4.2.1_frameworks_opt_telephony.patch
cd ~/android/system; . build/envsetup.sh; brunch <DEVICE_TARGET>
To Remove
Code:
cd ~/android/system
rm -rf out/target/common/obj/JAVA_LIBRARIES/framework_intermediates \
out/host/common/obj/JAVA_LIBRARIES/layoutlib_intermediates \
out/target/common/obj/JAVA_LIBRARIES/telephony-common_intermediates \
out/target/common/obj/APPS/Mms_intermediates
[OR]
Code:
cd ~/android; make clobber
and to reset your source tree**
Code:
cd ~/android/system/build; git checkout . ; git clean -df
cd ~/android/system/libcore; git checkout . ; git clean -df
cd ~/android/system/frameworks/base; git checkout . ; git clean -df
cd ~/android/system/frameworks/opt/telephony; git checkout . ; git clean -df
cd ~/android/system/packages/apps/Mms; git checkout . ; git clean -df
cd ~/android/system; repo abandon pdroid
If OpenPDroid intrigues you, yet the thought of applying all these patches gives you pause, there is a tool that can attempt to patch the framework of an already compiled rom called The Auto-Patcher.
OpenPDroid is an open source fork of the PDroid framework, as written by Svyat and expanded by CollegeDev. We are always looking for contributors, come see us on XDA or submit a pull request.
I'm glad to see there's a more open PDroid project happening. I'm not sure what I'll be able to contribute, but I'll find something to help out with.
Looks like I'm going to have to spend some quality time with the CM10.1 codebase tonight.
Decimalman:
If you look in my github (http://github.com/wsot) you will find there are forks of all the modified parts of Android, and these include forks from cm-10.1 (branches called cm-10.1-openpdroid). You can pull directly from these repositories into your existing repositories if you would prefer to do that, rather than apply patches to the source.
For cm-10.1, the repositories you'll care about are:
* platform_frameworks_base
* platform_libcore
* platform_build
* platform_packages_apps_mms
* platform_opt_telephony_common
Each of these has a branch for cm-10.1-openpdroid with the changes included.
This is great work guys, thanks!
I will test it and if everything works, I will release the next extended CM10/FXP ROM with it.
Is there already a solution for including PDroid Manager and still being able to get updates from the market?
I have one question, did you fix this bug too?
Is there any plan to cooperate with CollegeDev?
It would be a pity if development for PDroid would be fragmented.

If you include PDroid Manager as-is from the PDroid Manager thread, then it has the same signature as the one in the market. Because of that, it should be able to update from the market.

No, thanks for pointing that out. I've updated the source and pushed it to Github with that change. It'll be in the next release, which I don't imagine will be all that far away.

It would be a pity if development for PDroid would be fragmented.

We have not discussed with CollegeDev any kind of collaboration at this stage. Because both OpenPDroid and PDroid 2.0 core are GPL licensed, I imagine there will be code migration in both directions as things are fixed and improved.
The main reason that OpenPDroid has appeared (rather than us just making a 4.2.1 port of PDroid 2.0) is because long periods of development of PDroid 2.0 went on without the code being available, and so there was really no scope to collaborate.
The reason we are planning to produce an OpenPDroid API document is essentially so that there is a clear (and shared) idea of what can be expected from a minimal PDroid implementation, which both PDroid 2.0 and OpenPDroid cover at this stage. That way even if additional features are added (or someone creates a whole new PDroid implementation from scratch) there can be a shared interface to allow interoperability of management apps (like PDroid Manager).
I think there will be some 'fragmentation', but our hope is that there can be a common API between the versions that users will not have to suffer as a result, and can continue to use their preferred management app, and so forth.
Whether than will happen, I can't say yet.
Thank you! That's what I've been waiting for. I'll integrate this in OpenSensation2 asap

If you include PDroid Manager as-is from the PDroid Manager thread, then it has the same signature as the one in the market. Because of that, it should be able to update from the market.

Good! Could you make a 'latest' URL available somewhere (github?), so I can integrate it in my build process?

Just added https://github.com/wsot/pdroid_manager_build - the sole purpose of which is now to have the latest PDroid Manager binary.
You will be able to get the file from: https://github.com/wsot/pdroid_manager_build/blob/master/PDroid_Manager_latest.apk?raw=true

Thanks, I will integrate this tonight in my build process and I will document here how I did that, so other developers can maybe do the same.

That would be excellent! Let us know how it goes.
Thanks for improving pdroid!
Great work :good:
but the Problem I got is that I want to test it on my Nexus 4 with ParanoidAndroid...
when will it be possible ?
because i feel a little bit naked without pdroid and i don´t like to use LBE

If you haven't already, I suggest you try to patch with auto_patcher: I believe that quite a lot of the unofficial PA builds will actually patch even though we haven't specifically compiled for them.
While we were preparing for release, the source for ParanoidAndroid was not available, which is why there are not specific patches for it. The source has since been made available, so I expect we will have specific patches for PA integrated into auto_patcher quite soon. Exactly how soon is a bit hard to say, but we are certainly working on it.
Hi
I tried to find PDroid Manager in Play Store but can't find it.
Did a Web install from Play Store & it says my device is not compatible with the app.
I'm on Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300.
Is it really incompatible? If no where can I get the app?
Thanks.
Edit: lol Found the app in OP
Ignore me
Thanks for the good work, I'm test compiling to my build now.

Actually, it is a really valid question. I haven't updated the PDroid Manager in Google Play to be marked as supporting 4.2.1 yet. This will be done within the next 24 hrs, and you'll then be able to update from Google Play as new releases come out.

Hey thanks for the quick answer!
I tired the auto_patcher several times sadly it doesn't work...
maybe these logs are interesting for you:
Try to patch with CM Patches / With AOSP Patches
Perhabs it work if you try to patch this rom, but i am not angry if you got no time for this.
thanks in advance

Thanks for the details. We will be prepping patches for PA as a high priority so don't worry, you shouldn't be waiting long
I've compiled successful OpenPDroid and booted up fine. So far so good.
I'm letting my users of CM10.1 i9300 Unofficial BUILD to try your wonderful work.
This is my changelog for my CM10.1 Unofficial build V34 for i9300
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36697391&postcount=6919
Again, thanks for your good work.
There is 3 packages needed for any device for an original Android development:
Android source tree, preferably the original as with OEM devices but CyanogenMod or independent ports are enough too. Aka device
Kernel sources for the device. Aka kernel
Vendor proprietary drivers, which make the GPU and various sensors work. If not explicitly available for download they need to be extracted from a running device. Aka vendor
If these three packages are all available, making new roms will be easy for developers. Please co-operate to gather all of them here to be a resource for android developers.
If we could achieve this goal, I would port the Ubuntu OS for Nokia X2 and share it here with you
====
Progress:
Android source tree
No known instant or effort.
Can anyone contact to Microsoft mobile and get the Android source tree for Nokia X2 and upload it to Github?
Kernel sources
here is kernel source code for Nokia RM-1013 2.0.0.11: https://github.com/danialbehzadi/Nokia-RM-1013-2.0.0.11
Due to Microsoft mobile statement, there is no difference in kernel between 2.0.0.11 and 2.1.0.13.
DONE! :good:
Proprietary drivers
Thanks to T4ufik_Hidayat, Here is vendor packages: https://github.com/cm-nokia-x2/proprietary_vendor_nokia_ara
DONE! :good:
Nice effort
You are our only hope
As we have no real devs for this device and the device wasn't released globally, u r our only hope. I request u to build the kernel with device tree that we need so much to port any real android rom like AOSP , please. Frozentears was working on that, You can contact him as well.
Again, I request you, please make us a custom kernel so that we noobs can start porting KitKat/Lollipop for our beloved X2DS, u r our only hope because we see no other developer here for this device.

Here is for proprietary https://github.com/cm-nokia-x2/proprietary_vendor_nokia_ara
for Android source tree, try to use CyanogenMod.
maybe you can help people to make the complete rebuild of CyanogenMod with full fixed from bugs
