UPDATE 4.10.11 - Moving my learning curve towards a more user-biased concept - see x99percent or scaryghoul for GREAT kernels!
OP Here - http://romrepo.info/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=20
WARNING! Will not have wifi working and will not work properly on cm nightlies 31+, newest MIUI, Evervolvs new release may still not have the new video drivers. See original link for details.
Git: https://github.com/smoothtaste/speedy-gb
Proof of concept, with my sd reader fried I need a bigger test base to see if its going in the right direction and actually being used by end-users. If anyone is up to helping me with merges and such while I'm stuck in the middle of nowhere it'd be pretty sweet
Original goal: bring an OC/UV kernel to the table for 2.3 aosp roms with proper smartass governor implementation *as per x99percents interpretation. Then as kernel matures implement into aosp build (A few of my fellow users have agreed to or already are working on this.)
Git cloned toastcfh, not used to having to list things publicly so my git is sloppy. ENTIRE kernel base is toastcfh. I just cloned him a few moments too early, cause the video drivers are already outdated.
Inserted freq/voltage tables found in x99's sense kernels. Also implemented x99s interpretation of the governors, great work.
Very special thanks to scaryghoul for repeatedly telling me how far too far really is, for giving me a couple great scripts (which I then misused, hence broken wifi.) And for just being a cool mofo who knows some shiz.
UPDATE 4.10.11 - Moving my learning curve towards a more user-biased concept - see x99percent or scaryghoul for GREAT kernels!
You have been warned, I am teaching myself at my own pace and there might not be ANY reason YOU should use this. Unless you wanna help me get better, of course.
REMEMBER! Not cm7 31+ or newest miui. Will have a VERY hard time scrolling.

Changelog!
V.0.0.fail
Merged with toastcfh 3.27 - integrated x99percents freq tables and governor patches. Made into flashable zip thanks to scaryghouls script - and in turn destroyed wifi functionality. My mistake :X
If anyone does this on the correct roms I'm looking for battery life and performance infos. If we get a lil attention, we'll go ahead and bring the public release up to date.

Yeah I did the other day. Like I said my Shift for personal use has crapped out, no sd card mounting anymore. XD - Dunno why I left my spare at home.
If people like the implementation and performance on older builds I'll update it. Like I said before, ANY guidance and/or advice is GREATLY appreciated.

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

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...

Had some interesting fun with the packages on Oneiric. Turns out lib32readline5-dev no longer exists in the repositories. I managed to find the lib32readline5 package, will that suffice, or should I remove that package and manually install the -dev one? Found a .deb for it after I had already started the repo sync.

you should be fine without it...as long as you have ubuntu 64bit (Oneric).
If you get any build errors (like I did), let me know because there is a fix for it...
Also, please try out the HAL camera as I said in my first post before you compile the rom.
THanks!

Hi there guys, Great to see that work is still being done on such an old phone, though its old, im stuck with it so a fresh look can be nice once in a while , Ill be keeping a keen eye on the updates , i tried the rom for myself and am impressed, not too far away from making this a RC imo, oh and, if anyone is keen, is anyone able to look into making the earpiece volume for incalls a little louder? I wasnt able to test it myself because no calls were going through, only texts , but if its anything like the original htc sence rims or the CM6-7.x 's they are a tad quiet and would do with some modding anyways thats just my 2 cents, Happy Modding!
Oh and i tried the camera "patch" I think, it didnt seam to fix it for me, though all i did is unpacked the files placed the renamed fixed camera .SO file into the correct location, then repacked the lot before flashing, I dont know if i was supposed to delete the other camera file that was there??

Man,
I wish we had that many devs on our phone
Oh well, if we had more on cm7, it will help us collect more info on our phone so we can try a port to ics or aosp, or whatever...
Think of cm7 as a 'information collector' we can use to do new projects in the future.
I'd love to hop on this project, but I can't handle that much multitasking. I think we'd get further with more people on cm7, and then later do an ics port.

Just to update everyone. I managed to get fix a couple of things. When I hit the menu button while in setup wizard, I can get into the wireless menu. I was also able to navigate thru the setup wizard, but had no keyboard input my email/password. I found I was missing a key file for the keyboard and will fix it later. However, after navigating thru the setup wizard, the homescreen/lockscreen doesn't show. It's coming together, slowly but surely...

Keep up the great work Thomas!

I made some good progress, I think anyways...lol
I installed swype and was able to get past the setup wizard properly.

Still no homescreen, but I know where the problems lie and will be working on them tomorrow...

Hey, this is a cool list. It's nice to know people are keeping us honest.
We recently started an organization on github to collaborate easier, so that should be the main place you need to look if you want to stay updated.

Hi jblack, I've been following the liquidmecha development? It looks like you and liquid have been working on the RIL code for jellybean.
Is the RIL code the last major component in the jb development? Or are we talking about major hurdles across the board?
Thanks!

You're correct; the radio is the last major component left to get working on JB. Right now we're trying to get baseband to work. I've been pretty busy lately, so Liquid and Santod have been the main guys working on the radio. disconnecktie ha been an incredibly helpful tester thus far, and he also has his own kernel going. Everything else has been reported to work, including the camera and camcorder (not 720p, though). The radio has been especially difficult.

Whats wrong with the RIL is the ramdisk permissions. The RIL should work, but without the correct ramdisk permissions, the radio itself wont power on, which is the problem we are dealing with now. Think of it this way, you have a pin # to unlock your phone but you have forgotten it, and now you need to try every possible combination you can think of until you land on the right one, and then your phone will unlock. Thats how the problem has to be solved basically.

Jacobmacek, thanks for the info. How big of an obstacle are we talking about? Could this potentially prevent the DEVs from getting the radio to work with JB?

Meh, depends on how you look at it, it's really just a matter of time

Since you included the word "potentially", yes, potentially it could prevent it

"So you're telling me there's a chance"

Don't think to much into it people. Data will work it will just take time and lots of testing. Be patient and it will come.

It was a joke... Geez... It's like someone asking "is it possible that 'x' will happen by tomorrow?" and responding, "yes, it's possible" is 100% true.

Sorry if I sounded like a jerk. I wasn't trying to. Lots of time is being put into getting them to work. I will say that it's close. The radios turn on but are turning themselves off during the boot process.

I also wasn't trying to take away anything in regards to the efforts involved in that either. I was simply playing on the hypotheticals that the person included in their question. I couldn't resist answering hypothetically as well !

You know, I really appreciate updates like this. It is so much easier to avoid laying around whining like a kid in the back seat on a road trip when we hear progress reports once in a while.

I agree, it's nice to see progress is being made.
Once they get the radio working and fully functional JB roms start hitting the Thunderbolt, I hope that XDA's portal page will display the news. I was sorta surprised that the XDA homepage didn't at least give a one-liner when the ICS source was released by HTC. We all waited for so long and there were so many articles about how HTC was delaying the release, and then when the source was released....not one article or blurb.
I'm just hoping that the XDA portal page will give the Thunderbolt a little love when JB is ready. That may spark other news outlets to follow the fact that this older device is still being supported by the DEVs.

Agreed. It would be awesome to see an article, and also recognition of the hard work of liquid, santod, jblack, and twisted.

I added Flyhalf205 GITHUB activity to the list.

I'm not all that shocked about the lack of Thunderbolt love on the portal. When the Nexus S 4G got ICS, yes.. a developer phone, they didn't say much either. One of the DEV's for that phone managed to get a working version of ICS built for it based off the SDK, which technically shouldn't have worked, but it did. They didn't even show love for that.
No need to worry though, the Thunderbolt community know where our bread is buttered. :laugh:
