New Cyanogen Maintainer - T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide

jmhalder said:
Max Krivonos (Scepterr on XDA) has updated a old "Amaze is now amazing" post of his on Google+.
https://plus.google.com/106544349933037831956/posts/1SMW3eVKk1d
Max is the current maintainer for the Amaze and MT4G-Slide for CM9. He's had a number of small updates yesterday and today alone.
I'm quite optimistic with Max, I'm sure this will be a usable build before long.
Anyone else excited? I have been dying to run a AOSP rom on my phone since release of the device.

I found this in the htc amaze general section. If this holds true kornyone is no longer our maintainer. Just thought i would pass this on.

Kornyone is going through a row of personal issues, so he doesn't have much time for devving. Whomever works on our device doesn't matter much to me, I just hope we don't get left behind.

I know that. This was just a basic announcement saying "Hey guys, we got a new maintainer" thats all.

so who is our new maintainer

Read the first post.
Also, it's about time! Kornyone's work was amazing (especially since it happened relatively early-on), but he's gone dark on us for a while and is plagued with personal issues. Maybe now our phones can function the way they're supposed to.

that is both good and bad news for me.
anyway, many thanks to Kornyone for the work he has done and good luck with his personal issues (i lurk his google+ and can fully understand why he has really no time for developing anymore)

I just hope to god that wasn't a typo >_<

This is great news. Once it's stable, people will have a great ICS base to work off of when making ROMs.

Over on the CM7 thread there is a post with a screen shot of Max's G+ stating that he is not taking on the MT4GS.
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement.

It was a mistake, I thought he was, must have just been my mind playing tricks on me, and assuming something I THOUGHT I read months ago was accurate, I'll edit the post referenced, sorry to burst your bubble guys.

We need a new developer for this device. We need CM.

I don't understand the issues :3 Where going to have CM9. If you've noticed, CM9 hasn't been officaly released(Only 3, 4 devices on the mirror). Many phones lack the proper files to make the camera work. There's so many issues, there's just a lot of KANGs. We could have CM9 now, but there's no working camera with AOSP ICS. Otherwise TB would have had a AOSP/AOKP/CM9.

The issue is that we could have at least had CM 7.0.3 by now instead of AOSP-like ROMs still built on the memory- and power-consuming Sense framework.

Its not the sense framework that is a memory hog. Its all the system apps like sense widgets. Rosie launcher. Added bloatware. Etc etc. If you remove those memory hogs and use the sense framework it would do as well if not better then aosp. I ran undeads RubiX ICS and it had sense framework. But it was super stable and battery lasted crazy long. Sense framework also keeps the ability to use the sense camera. There are way more pros then cons.

I have the knowledge. But im all bout the money. Development of android shows no return for time invested. Long story short i dont want to dev unless the donations are guaranteed. I got my kernel code for cm7 up on my git for the most part. But i still have some "Unfinished Business" to attend to before making my git public for others to "Kang" from. There is still that nasty battery drain bug. Im going to put a second git together with a full device tree for doubleshot so other devs can put together better Aosp Roms. In the mean time I will compile cm7 from the htc glaciers git and merge it with doubleshot. Luckily the doubleshot has all the needed GB Drivers. Libs. Binaries. Etc etc to make it fully functioning direct from htc.

DHD took 100's of hours to get a camera driver. Its understandable that you'd want money. I'm sure if you could prove to the community your good (your CM7/AOSP Gethub). We'd start up a bounty thread.

Yes but that means doing the work first (With zero guarantee) of return. The kernel source was super simple. I dont want anything for that git. But building a complete device tree your talking hundreds of hours as you stated. I will see what can be done.

Ok all g2x ics stuff goes here!!

ICS ANDROID QUESTIONS GO HERE!!!!!
Quite frankly im sick of seeing a new thread or an old thread revised every 4 weeks. Basically from the point of a dev and a fan I am submitting this thread. I want to see every old or dev thread closed and all questions or suggestions pointed here.
I have personally exhausted most of my resources trying to fix the problems we have within our tegra g2x builds. This device is completely closed source rather like to admit it or not. blame it on all you want to.ether
The bottom line is lg and nvidia only releases source for their bottom line **** that makes tegra work, and we have done patched that in and made it work to some extents.
Yes Alot of us devs can make cm9 work and alot of us can make aosp4.0.3+ work. but they will not opensource their work. To the same extent we where stuck at with the vibrant and the gps issue.
All i can say is do not buy another lg device or another tegra device. Yes the transformer is bad ass, but if you protest to a level to where no one wants there work they will be forced as an oem to make there manufactures push their source and make it relevant to the point the oems do.....
Thanks for this, all the other ones seem really useless and never stay on track anyway. . I wonder how long it'll take before some guy trolls the hell out of this one. Lets try to keep this one only pertaining to AOSP ICS or CM9 development and/or progress.
This works...but at some point it will get off track...most of the people that are in the the other threads can't get a working build and since we don't have any builds to test anymore its tough to stay on topic with something you aren't using.

Yea, that's crap, I mean, one of the things I like about Android is the open-sourceness. If only OEM's would realize that an open-source system will, in my opinion at least, get more and better support FROM THE COMMUNITY tahn a totally closed system. Take Windows for example, we all have have things to complain about and most can't do that much, even with third-party programs which can be used to correct problems or bugs or add features. On the other hand, there's a game series I follow where the Dev's explicitly made the games open for easy modification, the only "closed" part is the actual engine itself which was developed from scratch. And what resulted was a fan base who took initiative to correct bugs and add features, sure people didn't like the fact that the games had bugs initially but not only did the community take action but the devs even incorporated community fixes into official patches and credited the person who made the fix. Now the dev company has gone solo and publish their own games and are due to release a fourth in the series with a strong fan base. And here we have people who will refuse to ever touch, Nvidia and/or LG ever again, and not just because of bugs, but the fact that it's closed and we get crap for official releases and fixes and crap for support.

On the old alpha builds, it was sound and camera that didnt work i believe. On my build, it was data, camera and sound. Don't know about kwes' build. CM supposedly fixed the sound issue, but aren't sharing sources yet. So we're kinda at a stand-still until LG releases some source, or CM lets us know how they fixed the sound issue.
I just compiled the aosp 4.0.3 for G2x. I used the google's sources not CM9. However it doesn't boot. I was just wondering how did you guys got it to boot?
Also, the aosp source requires recovery as well to make the otapackage. Is there any way to make the otapackage without recovery? This is not a very big issue as i can manually make the otapackage.
booting up is the big hurdle. Any help is highly appreciated
Thanks

Even if the CM team let you know how to fix the sound issue, wouldn't you still be at a stand-still? (camera and data)

Right, unless CM got camera and data to work. And if all this is going to be open source anyhow, why the secrecy and lack of sharing? As far as I understand no one is making or going to make money off this so, what is it? Is it some petty game of who's the biggest baddest dev?
People can remember CM for being the first to release ICS for the G2x but only because they kept their work secret and didn't share or because they shared their work with others and others with them and they came out on top because they are better or they didn't because they aren't better, etc.

I'd guess that there are many reasons for CM to keep their source closed for now, not the least of which is reputation. Also competition is one of the things that drives development. Open source is not just about giving hard work away for free.
Here's a great article that helped me to better understand the nature of open source.

I hope this help fix audio problem...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is my fix for SU660 ICS audio...and it work for my ICS AOSP 4.0.3 (SU660 = KR version P990)
I think currently, we must use the libaudio from CM7/Stock rom.......
SO...
1. Modify star-common/BoardConfigCommon.mk
BOARD_USES_GENERIC_AUDIO := false
BOARD_USES_AUDIO_LEGACY := true
# Use dirty hack to allow froyo libaudio
BOARD_HAVE_BLUETOOTH := true
BOARD_HAVE_BLUETOOTH_BCM := true
2. Add audio.primary.p990 audio_policy.p990 into your star-common/star.mk. (This will use hardware/cm/audio. DONT USE audio.primary.tegra audio_policy.tegra!)
3. Use my hardware_legacy.tgz , extract it into star-common/include. The code is mainly from VorkTeam's github, thanks. I only made some fix in it.
4. Copy from CM7/Stock rom : libaudio.so, liba2dp.so, liblvvil.so
Audio should work now...

-Expect a release VERY soon.
- Rebuilding Doubleshot Device folder with all proprietaries. Using tbaldens as a base and am adding on more requirements. If you have any insight please pm me if you'd like.
- Building...
- Attempting to fix GPS compile error. If anyone wants to take a look if they can help: http://pastebin.com/LHr2Cf5k
Temporarily removed GPS Module and added it in after build.
Achieved successful boot, but with many errors.
Will release a version with less bugs.
I did a few checks to see what was working.
I can confirm:
sensors
phone
sms
wifi
bluetooth
uhmmm all I remember.
Back in the works so keep your heads up
I'll probably try to get a somewhat stable version of this up before I work on my sensation port.
I LOST MY SOURCE BECAUSE MY HARD DRIVE GOT FRIED....

Not really, AOSP can't have camera for a while(Only reason TB didn't to AOSP). Plus Tbalden is the only active Dev making Kernels. All of our Devs are amazing. But I feek TB is a different Rank. Its more Lifesaglicth vs. Undeadk9. Once we get some Kernels in the Mix then there can be better grounds for Rivals

Just a note, you can use any camera over the sensation htc fw / libraries / kernel. It doesn't take much effort, let it be AOSP or HTC Camera. Its just an App that uses Android camera service. But making the libs and fw working is the hard nut. U need your own compiled libcamera.so. it took ages for someone to do it for desire hd and alike. Noone yet compiled it for our devices that publicly.
Undead and me are using the sensation leaks libs. Not compiled ones. Btw I had to binary hack those libs to make them work, and did some kernel config to make it come alive, and those libs and kernel are in pyroice and undeads liquidice .
So for aosp this is mostly useless, to get source compiled we should check how the dhd and other msm7 devices do it or check if cm released something for msm8

[DEV/ROM][FROM SOURCE][CAF GB 2.3.6][build #20][3/21]

Here is my Skyrocket ROM built from Code Aurora Forum source. This is Android 2.3.6. It is not even close to a daily driver and probably never will be.
DO NOT INSTALL THIS UNLESS YOU ARE VERY EXPERIENCED IN DEBUG AND KNOW HOW TO USE 'adb'.
I am posting this to help with the effort to build a community ICS ROM. Perhaps my device tree will help. As such, I do not plan on spending any more time debugging the issues with the rom. I would rather focus on helping the community get an ICS build going.
Link to my device tree: https://github.com/dferg/android_device_msm8660_skyrocket
Link to build instructions: https://github.com/dferg/android_device_msm8660_skyrocket/blob/master/README.md
Link to Code Aurora Forum: https://www.codeaurora.org/xwiki/bin/QAEP
Link to the ROM (build #20): http://d-h.st/gU2
What works?
calls (no audio), sms, 2D graphics, wifi, bluetooth
What doesn't work?
cell data, audio, nfc, int+ext sdcards
Instructions for install:
In CWM, wipe factory
In CWM, install this zip
Reboot + wait up to 3 minutes
If you get the lock screen with no way to unlock, connect to your computer and run "adb reboot". You should then get the proper unlock slider.
Notes:
sdcard is detected incorrectly, so do NOT allow it to attempt a format (it will say 'damaged sdcard'--just ignore this)
Even though it says "No SIM Card" calls in and out will work, although no audio...
Updates: 3/21/12
Added link to build instructions on Github
Pushed commits to Github that simplify the build

just for my understanding, what is the hurdle to getting data to work, seems like it is always the hardest thing to enable.
For gb builds on our phone I always see call audio being a hurdle

Nrm is right. Audio seems to be the biggest hurdle.
This rom makes an LTE connection but the data connection just isn't used. Not sure why, but this problem seems easier than audio (which I have had no luck debugging so far)

Oh wow, if you get AOSP GB fully operational for the phone (other then call audio, dunno whats up with that), we could get CM7 working fully (with source), and get official!

Thanks Longcat. Like alphadog pointed out, I'm not actively working on this one right now in favor of helping out the ICS efforts. But if someone else would like to collaborate or even pick up where I left off, please have at it. My reason for starting this ROM was to eventually get CM7 fully stable, as you suggested.
I wish someone would be able to pick this up I understand the importance of ics but the hurdles with gb seem far fewer than ics and would tide the masses over once I get my other hdd set up with Ubuntu I hope to take a peek

Yes, a link to his post would help. I searched XDA and Github, finding only stuff about Vibrant roms that he has done.

Oops and sorry

Maybe this isn't the thread for this but before I start releasing a few roms I want to apologize for the whole kanging thing. I was having a bad day and saw no one give me credit for my work even though as someone pointed out we all kang one another, we kang HTC we kang. Just have to be sure to give credit. Please don't thank this post, this isn't me trying to get extra thanks, just more of trying to get the community to accept me before anything I release gets flamed. Thanks

All good chief, I just act like nothing ever happened, all 4 of us was in the wrong! So I don't think there is need to apologize to the whole community. They didn't and won't

Sometimes people become too emotionally involved in something for the wrong reasons.
You flipped out here, but this wasn't what was bugging you - no, don't expand on what it was because it's not for any of us to know.
That you came back and apologized for your outburst shows a lot about your character, because you do want to be a part of this and realize that arrogance is the wrong path, so, while I didn't involve myself in any of it and didn't really focus on it, I am glad to see you coming back to play with us.
What you posted before to prompt this apology was a weight dragging the doubleshot community back into the petty mudslinging and hatred this place in particular has worked so hard to bury and grow out of - this isn't some offhand I'm sorry but a recognition of just how counter to the spirit of XDA your actions were.
I accept your apology and hope to see some cool stuff from you when you get the chance, though I am only one person and wouldn't presume to speak for the community .
----
@ strapped - I resent that you paint the whole community as complicit of the actions or attitudes of a few, I can't think of a way I've wronged either of you, in fact worked on trying to help the both of you out - when you say community you mean all of us.
Don't take that as a personal shot, just put your emotions aside and consider what you're saying. Give JKilo a chance here and don't provoke a negatived response - some won't point it out but fire back and then this thread and it's intentions are poisoned.
Let's all make the effort to rise above the vile hatred this small corner of the internet tried to force on everyone in it back in october-ish, we've come a long way to rising above it with some very deliberate efforf from a lot of people.

Why is the Doubleshot dying? It needs an offical ICS. What would be nice is Virt. Inq. But based off the a stock DS ICS rom. So we could have TV-Out, and our *****en camera.

Honestly I'm not looking forward to ICS or cm9, neither have impressed me one bit. The AOSP camera is worse than stock IMHO, also the newer Sense ROMS removed carousel which is a joke. So I guess I'm not really happy where HTC is taking things.

Well the Sense carousel I'm talking is the full Sense 3.0 from like the Sensation or EVO 3D, not the generic mySense the DoubleShot got tortured with. Even still I love Sense to much to let go of my widgets. I have a PhotoGrid dedicated to my little girl. So no matter where it goes I'm sure to follow in a way

[Q] Are Most Of These ROMs A Waste? What Do You Think?

*I did not make this thread to discredit, discourage or bash any devs, I am simply asking for opinions on a subject that dawned on me recently. Please speak freely and non biasly. Thanks!*
OK guys, here goes. I've been experimenting with alotta ROMs lately, mostly ICS. In time I've realized that we never have the features that we paid for, mainly 1080p recording. If the phone doesn't oporate the way we paid for it to (And I paid full price) then is it not a waste to flash the ROM?
I love the speed and battery efficiency I get from the devs and I'm blown away by the amount that they've accomplished, but I've been recently contemplating falling back to stock simply because I'll have the awesome camera. I'd even settle for a top notch Sensation ROM. I know this sounds like a complainer thread, but I've been really losing morale with this device. It seems there will be no more hard KB devices so I might defect to a One S or wait for a One S equivalent from T-mobile. What do you guys think?
I will never give up my keyboard. You leave if you like. And these custom roms are supposed to give our phone something it would've never had otherwise. A functioning ICS rom. If you can't live without everything working, then you should stick to stock or stock tweaked. (I can't use 1080p even if it was working. Don't have a fast enough card )
Rom building and compiling takes a lot of time and effort, not to mention skill.
Essentially, these fine devs are doing the work HTC and T-Mobile were never going to do. Lazy greedy scum they are

I personally don't think that it's a waste to flash these ROMs. Mainly because IMO (aside from 1080p recording) we're really getting more than what we paid for if you think about it. All the features that are available with ICS alone would have made this device more expensive to begin with off the shelf. Then add features of CM9 that these devs are cooking into the ICS ROMs or the features of Sense/ICS ROMs combined together...I think we it's a great thing what's been accomplished.
If 1080p recordning is the main thing you really want then I'd follow the previous suggestion and flash stock or go with a modded stock ROM. There will be no defecting for me. I love physical keyboards! I use mine daily in one way or another.
Even if it comes to the point that nothing on this device is supported anymore I will have this phone lol. We have enough to be used as DDs. So all in all for me, I don't think these ROMs are a waste to flash/use.

This is why I use Bulletproof. It has everything we paid for, and is much more stable and optimized than the stock rom. I would love to have an ICS rom, but I want everything to work on my phone. This is my choice. I am happy with using a GB rom, because my phone does everything I want it to. If it isn't broke don't fix it.

I'm sorta in the same boat as OP. I've flashed everything and found camera limitations with all of them, so I'm really waiting a 1080p fix with flawless camera otherwise before I go back to ICS. I really love how far everything has come this year in terms of development and it's much appreciated, but I don't plan on going back to an ICS ROM without a fully functioning camera. I have an 19 month year old son and just can't risk it!
My dream is ICS with Sense, but even just for a nice camera fix, I think I'd be okay without Sense.
Running Mik in the meantime. Bulletproof was nice except for the green tint to everything.
Hoping for a camera fix soon. Wallet will be opened then!

I am in north carolina, my dev computer is in pennsylvania. I bought yogi's doubleshot, he doesn't have one anymore.
I don't know what I have, but whatever it is it's hundreds of miles away and wholly unavailable.
If you want to host the UV kernels, they were made by yogi, but I'm sure it'll be okay - only issue is no sources, so...?
If it's kosher to link them up here, then feel free to host them and make a thread for it if you want, I have no issue with it, if it'll help someone that's what's important.
Just make sure to credit yogi, and make sure to be explicit about no support from the authors. I'm not quite in a position to do so yet with my new job, still absorbing a lot of data and training, so my brain and body are worn and exhausted after my shift ends in the morning.
I'll bring this to yogi's attention, or at least ask about it, but I don't see an issue with sharing it, provided the two requests I made above are filled.

Oh, not gonna quote the whole OP yet again in the thread on page 1... But...
Op - if you feel something is lacking, you are in the place to give you the best shot at figuring out how to make it do what you want.
As far as getting all the features you paid for, well, you paid htc or tmobile, or a little of both, or you bought it secondhand, but the money was originally collected by one or both of those entities. If you use the software they provide, then you get what you paid for.
Using an alternate software version, like what you find here, actually gives you much more then what you paid for it - for you paid nothing, and got a whole lot in return.
You can jump in and help the active devs solve problems, or wait until they do, but the argument about getting whatever value you invested real money into evaporates the moment you flash any non-stock OS.

Just looking for what needs to be done/or something helpful that's not too much beyond my expertise or time lol! I am a bit concerned and confused on the framework variations between ICS and GB but I can pick it up as I go. I've only run 2 ICS roms between two devices so I have a lot of reading to do.

To be fair, I never used this feature before I flashed CM9, and I continue to not need it. Cameras, to me, are just a bonus. I just want a faster phone with better battery life.
