[Bounty] Compiled Adreno drivers

I am offering a 25$ bounty to whoever can compile the adreno drivers for the huawei U8150. The device has a msm7225 which includes the Adreno 200 but no drivers have been written for it. I am including the kernel source and the Adreno driver source as well as the specs.
Phone Huawei U8150 Ideos
cpu msm7225 overclocked to 600 mhz in factory
256 mb of ram
froyo 2.2.1
.32 kernel
Kernel source (Please compile with the overclock frequency unlocked using the documentation that is included in the text file with this source) http://www.mediafire.com/?s2djub4571hjs
Adreno Source from GIT https://www.codeaurora.org/gitweb/qu...oid-msm-2.6.32
Thanks and I will be sharing this work with the rest of the U8150 users when it is completed! Starting with my build. Good luck and thank you!

Nice

Found this in the android kernel source for my mobile. It's the Galaxy ace which also has an Adreno200.
Maybe it is of use to you.
The kernel module source for the gpu is attached.

That does help but I have no idea how to compile that driver, let alone how to tell the kernel to initialize it. That is why I am asking for someone to compile the kernel with the driver.

I will try to compile them for you, no guarantees It creates a xxxx.ko module so you can insmod xxxx.ko into your kernel.

Sounds great, I appreciate the effort. So in the kernel I just type Insmod in the init file? I have an extracted boot.img of my kernel but thats about the best I can do atm.

I downloaded the source and discovered that the MSM Ardeno drivers are already included in your kernel source. You just have to turn them on in the kernel makemenuconfig.
I compiled the 3d driver for your kernel source(2.6.32, critical only works for this kernel version). Now copy extracted file to your sdcard and try:
* insmod msm_kgsl.ko
in adb or terminal.
Don't know if it works, can't test it. I guess you just have to try and see. And hope you don't get a kernel panic.

I got a no such directory error when I tried to install it.
I copied the ko file to the root of my SD, went to my terminal on my phone and typed SU > cd sdcard and then insmod msm_kgsl.ko

Hmm that's weird, should work. Try and copy to a different path.
Are you sure your kernel version is 2.6.32?

It is indeed a .32 kernel. I am going to try baking the .ko file into my rom, as well as the kernel if I can figure out how.

I just opened the rom in my kitchen and saw that bash support wasn't enabled. I guess that would explain why I couldn't even get my odex script to work. Enabling bash and going to try again.

did you get the adreno to work? i have a similar problem with a XT300 from Motorola, the hardware is there but it's not functional...

If you eventually gonna compile your own kernel, you can build the drivers in the kernel yourself. This are the settings I copied from my own phone's kernel settings.

You find these settings under Device Drivers --> Graphics Support.
PS. Set the buildoptions for the driver to a * instead of M to include them natively in you kernel
PPS. You can instantly set all the correct settings for your device by issuing this command: make hw_msm7x25_defconfig (Huwai devices with MSM 7225 processor)

cant do insmod msm_kgsl.ko from anywhere ..
insmod: init_module 'msm_kgls.ko' failed (no such file or dir...)
tried sdcard, /system/lib/modules, various random plases. same thing.

Can anyone try: busybox insmod msm_kgls.ko
Busybox insmod gives more debugging data. Also try adding -v to be verbose and -p to test if the module can be inserted

I added busybox support to my build and when I typed busybox insmod -f -v msm_kgsl.ko I got can't insert msm_kgsl.ko : unknown symbol in module or invalid parameter. I am really hoping you might be able to compile a kernel for us with it already enabled so I can just throw it in the build. I can test a compiled kernel but I am not having any luck adding it through insmod.
It almost seems as if there is something wrong with that module.

I'm interested in that module for the XT300/Spice.
My kernel is the 2.6.29, 2.1-update1...
How do I compile the module ? What do I need?
Thanks for any help.

Is there possibility that these devices are made from chips with faulty gpu part?

Doubtful that there was any bad parts. Anyways, I am getting conflicting information as to whether it is an adreno 130 or adreno 200 inside of it. I read in the kernel mentions of msm7225 and other parts say 7201a.

Wouldn't it just be enough to get the libGLES and maybe gralloc files from another hardware, like htc buzz, which has the msm7225/adreno200 integration?
I tried it, but quadrant is not showing qcom as the renderer. I had to create the egl.cfg, which was not present. Perhaps it's not loading the egl.cfg:
0 0 android
0 1 qcom
with the files:
egl/libGLES_android.so
egl/libGLES_qcom.so(from htc buzz)
hw/gralloc.msm7k.so(from htc buzz)
hw/gralloc.default.so(from htc buzz)
On neocore the score is 3FPS...
EDIT:
CRAP, flashed the libEGL.so from htc buzz, stuck in bootloop... great, will try to recover =/

I do know Why its always keeps on loading

NO Root Acces
Does anyone can help me, I have no root access over my phone?
When I run Android Commander, the bottom status bar says "Root Access : NO"
I don't understand what went wrong.
I tried to click the status bar, it just keep on loading.

Doesn't even find my HTC Sensation (adb drivers installed+rooted), while both QTADB and Droid Manager are able to access the phone.
So it's a no go for me, too bad, looks promising.

Thank you

@Taraen;
br im a new bie can you send some tutorials on how to use this?

Maybe because you are runing jb mr1 4.2.2

For all those that get "Root Access : NO" on rooted phone, it's because adbd is running in "secure" mode.
Try adbd Insecure v1.30. It worked for me:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1687590

It won't show my device
it says my Galaxy nexus(4.3 +rooted) is offline and that I should reboot it.
done the reboot, nothing changed, tried insecure adb, the same message.
can someone help me.

I need to to modify swap file as im using androidcommander with rooted note 2 4.3
thank u people

works just fine with Chainfires Insecure Mode app and KitKat on my Nexus 5.
You need to overwrite the files that are in $ROOT/Android Commander DIR/bin/ with the ones that are from an up-to-date sdk.
There are 4 files.

What is Init.d?
Init.d is a feature which allows you to run brunch of scripts at boot . Thats really useful while you want to set values which reset at boot or run/do any thing at every boot or install tweaks , engines and....

Here is the stock kernel Init.d support for Samsung Galaxy Core 2 SM-G355H
What is needed :
1. custom recovery - Preferred My Ported custom recovery with full SELinux support.
2. Busybox pre installed or install BusyBox 1.23 update script just because it use busybox run-parts command to execute the scripts from /system/etc/init.d directory.

The ramdisk init.rc have new service usrinit :
Code:
service sysinit /system/bin/logwrapper /system/xbin/busybox run-parts /system/etc/init.d
disabled
oneshot
First it set the scripts permissions in /system/etc/init.d as executable, and then the run-parts launch them all.
How to :
1. Download init.d_by_Dhruvit_G355H.zip and place it in Sdcard.
2. Go to Recovery and choose install zip from sdcard.
3. Select init.d_by_Dhruvit_G355H.zip
4. Enjoy!!

help me
can any tell me why we need this and what work its will do..?

it runs scripts which can be edited,deleted,created at any time . if you do not have init.d then you have to edit boot.img everytime . and it can zipalign apps at every boot

hi there, nice job u're doing. I have a question, how can I disable a certain script to avoid it to load once I already installed it via recovery?
Thanks in advance!

go to init.d folder and remove the script which you do not want or change its permission

Hello, Can we have the kernel updated with the latest stock kernel?
or atleast give us the instructions and the initrd command lines and info

This post should be moved to the new Core II forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/t/galaxy-core-2

How?

1) I didnot backup my kernal (BOOT) before testing it. My phone now switches on but it shows NO SIM CARD. Not able to install New Apps. How to get back my phone as per its factory make. Pls help.
2) U already replied to white enregy that "go to init.d folder and remove the script which you do not want or change its permission". How can I do it now since I dont have an app to go to init.d folder. pLs Help help. Thanks in advance.

you can use ES File Manager or Root Explorer and to fix this problem i will update the boot.img to latest version.

Tried modifying contents of a dev file in root condition, yet failed!

Hello guys, iam trying to control the brightness of camera LED in my Letv Le X509 phone (Android 6 Marshmellow version), and it is rooted. I used adb shell to interact with my device in "su"(root) mode. within the sys/class/leds folder there is no led_torch folder, only the folders blue,green,red which are notifcation leds folders . I tried searching for the led_torch folder and i only got a flashlightdrv folder, so thought this must be it, but within it these are the contents,

no brightness file found where i can modify the brightness level, i tried modifying the dev file and this is the result i got! permission denied, when iam accessing as root
What am i missing? My ultimate aim is to write a pwm script to control the torch_led, plzz help me if you can and help me figure out what is that stuff that is blocking me out

you forgot the android framework. whatever you are trying to do on linux runtime kernel parameters - android can do, too. android is on top of linux, so it will override you sooner or later.
regarding permissions, you're learning it the hard way like me... uid 0 (root) doesn't mean you have actually root access. android kitkat introduced (NSA) SELinux which was enforced with lollipop. besides this android uses fancy stuff like separated mount namespaces and launches every app with its own uid in a sandboxed virtual machine forked from zygote.
so if you're going to mess with permissions you have to do it from own init.rc service and exec with proper seclabel (u:r:magisk:s0, u:r:supersu:s0 or whatever)

Oh , weird! iam just a novice in this android field , iam just using it for a project to blink my smartphone LED at a particular frequency(using android studio), problem is above 40 Hz is not achievable, so my requirement is to access the torchLED driver through Kernel and control it so that i can achieve a higher frequency and i need to root to access that.
The Weird thing is root checker indicated me that the root is properly installed on this device and i was able to control the notification LEDs like green , blue and red(under sys/class/leds) properly through my so called "root" access. Iam just taken aback why iam not able to modify that kernel file..
I will go through your posted link and find some way to get through it! Thanks !

Oh i think i get it, the SE Linux is acting as the security layer that is preventing my root to modify the contents of the driver file of torchLED, but iam suprised on why it did allow me to modify the contents of notification leds? (under sys/class/leds)

look for avc denied in dmesg/logcat
https://gist.github.com/msfjarvis/sepolicy.md

Will do ! Thanks!

you can shortcut if kernel allows permissive

setenforce 0
getenforce
