No idea then

Port it... Its not that hard and their are a lot of tutorials all over the net... Plus it will be a good learning experience for you...

Im looking into it
Alright im looking into it im just not very good with android sdk.

You don't need the sdk... All you need is 7zip and adb setup for logcat if it doesn't boot. Use the version from the evo 4G, as it will already have the cdma sstuff you will need. This is a decent guide here.

I tried to build it using kushdecks device source tree and htc vendor and it's a no-go...we don't have a device source tree that is compatible with AOKP.

Well it wouldn't install
well i did all the stuff and it just said installation aborted.

That would be cool, and seeing as the eris and the hero are very similar it's probably very possible.
any chance we could get the CyanogenMod team on board for something like this

Instead of having to delete everything on the phone and restore a previous image, it will run the ROM from your sdcard. This should in theory make it load faster. I'm looking at it now. I will let you know.

+1...thanks!
WOW.... I know I'd love this on my hero... thanks to anyone who wants to work on porting this =]
I will let you know something about this tomorrow. I would not try flashing the recovery for that because the kernel, hardware keys and some other things are different from our phone.

Wow, I'd love to do this. Imagine CM6 on your phone, but when you need to call sprint or want to use flash, you can go to sense! Since the eris is very similar to the hero, this should be possible.
Bump. We need some dual boot.

Just Rooted... now CM7?

Hey guys I finally just rooted my Inspire. Can I flash CM7 and use the Telus kernel to get sound back? Thanks to all, sorry if this is a noob question
Nope. No CM7 or MIUI until source is released. Neither will work without an AOSP kernel, for which source code is required.

Alright thanks for the quick reply
The great thing is once we get source it shouldn't be an issue at all, and by that time cm7 may be past RC stage and into final!
I was a captivate owner. I need to look for silver linings wherever I can find them.

I flashed cm7, it works great except the sound. Make sure you download the correct gapps files or you will get stuck in a boot loop.

Vendor setup for Thunderbolt

I would like to know if anyone knows where I might find the vendor setup folder for the Thunderbolt to use for building Gingerbread.
I have Slayher's vendor setup folder but that's for CM 7.
Thank you
Follow the guide on the CyanogenMod Wiki for compiling from source. The Thunderbolt files have been merged into the repo.
Follow the same exact steps as the wiki explains and you'll be fine. Just remember to change the device name from whatever it is to mecha.

devs are already on it in development section. It should be as simple as changing the ramdisk but there could be many more issues.

some of the guys are working on it in This thread.
It currently boots, however is not working as an actual recovery at this point.
you can try flashing it, but do not use it to make any backups or flash roms.
There is a modified version floating around the forums that has touch CWM working for G2X 5.8.1.3. I have backed up and restored and it gave no problems.

dont go flashing that just yet... still not 100%
mount points are screwed up, so while it might look and act working, you might be restoring your dalvik cache to /system...
just hang on a bit longer, Rusty is getting close, but he can only do so much on his own without a g2x to test it himself.

[Q] gingerbread

As of right now, what is holding us back from porting gingerbread to our sidekicks? Is it drivers? Or a 2.3 kernel that runs? I need a list of what needs to be done exactly.

And, here:

Hope that helps!
Thank you, but I've seen both of those and followed them to the end. I'm looking for a specific list of what is needed to port gingerbread to our device. As in i may take up the task of porting it
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA
Would probably be a good idea to continue where windixxi left off since hes the closest person to get ginger working on our phone.
i think i remember Sduvick explaining that the drivers for this device are not exactly generic, so we really need an official Gingerbread kernel from Samsung. i'm pretty sure he tried porting a gb kernel from another device, but without updated drivers for the SK4G, it was basically impossible. that's how i understand it anyway.
Thank you yogi for the info and yes pintek im aware of windxixi great work but i cant figure out his github at all. Its not labeled well.. so more or less its a drivers issue?

Basically? That's what I understood as well.
So instead of trying to port drivers we would have to write new drivers in theory since we don't have a source to build from?

It's no small job. Here's sduvick's assessment of the issue:

Thanks for the reading orange. Gave me the idea that the kernel is going to have to be a makeshift mix and match type thing from kernels from multiple phones.

I agree.
As mentioned previously, maybe windixxi can provide some insight as well.
You're probably going to need some experience and knowledge of coding (i.e. C, Python, Java) and access to a Linux rig of some sort as well..
Yes im going to setup a linux enviroment soon i was thinking ubuntu but i havent setup a linux in a while are their any better alternatives?

I recommend installing a hard drive specifically for your Linux environment and using the bios to switch between your boot OS.
But, I also have Ubuntu installed inside of VirtualBox. It's a bit slow, but it works inside of Windows.
so awesome that Samsung are such *****es about this haha
Sounds like i may be in need of a better computer. Ill see what i can do with what i have and start looking into kernels with stuff we need
Sent from my SGH-T839 using XDA
I think there's a kernel guide here you could look at.
A OC/UV Kernel would be fabulous.

I might try that to get me back into the groove of things, things are going slow with classes though so nobody should get their hopes up yet. But if i manage to buil an oc/uv kernel sucessfully, then my next project will be working on a gingerbread kernel. Ill keep you guys posted in the weeks to come.

If you (or other SK4G developers) are interested, I may be able to arrange a build server.
As in a place to host the kernels we build?
