ALPHA Mesmerize AOSP ROM Discussion w/Pics

Last night was an interesting night for me. With the help of jt1134, of course, I was able to get a semi-working build of AOSP to load and boot up on the Mesmerize. For those of you who have not seen this, it is pretty neat stuff. This means NO TOUCHWIZ on the phone at all. Pure google goodness! What this also means right now, is a lot of work for the people involved. These guys have been really going at it lately and it is slowly paying off.
I'd like to pay credit to these guys for their work so far and all their work in the future, as I'm hope they won't be stopping any time soon.

namebrandon
Captainkrtek
and anyone else out there that has worked on this project that I don't know about.
Last night I got to do a very small part in helping out and I was glad to be able to be a part of this.
This required a modified kernel to be able to load and boot. Although I have built several kernels using jt's github source, this is the first time I have had to modify content and it gave me insight into some of what is going on in the kernel. It's definitely more than I had ever thought before.
Here are some screen shots that I took while running the ROM.

Info w/modified kernel & build number
I will not be releasing this build, as I do not feel comfortable with it's stability just yet. I also want to get jt's approval before letting it out into the wild since I am following his lead on all of this. This was done more for discussion purposes to see what you guys think and to let you know that work is being done to give you more options than just ROMs made from stock.

Well this is sufficiently awesome
Looks like a good start. Thanks.

When you say Pure Google Goodness are we talking Froyo ? or better.. Gingerbread?
And if you need a tester I would be more than happy to help out.

I know you are all super excited about the updates, but if you look at the build number in the picture, it says 2.1-update1 ECLAIR.
jt has been working on this for 3 months. I just got the Mes to load up last night. Let's see how things go and maybe we'll start an Alpha ROM thread in the development section.

Yeah, there's a pretty good list of wallpapers in it. These guys are really putting some work in to making a top notch product. If we can get a few more kinks out of the Mesmerize version, I'll release an Alpha.

Looks like it's on the side burner for now. The good news is, the reason that it's been put on the side burner is that it seems possible that a 2.3 AOSP build may fix some of the problems that are happening in the 2.2 build. I don't have many of the details, but they've got the first steps working. As soon as there is a build that I can start to work with, I will post pics.

I would like this sooo bad. It would be awesome

Sounds like good news to me.

Looking really nice, cant wait to see what comes of this!! just want something other than 2.1 errrrrr

[ROM][9/30/11]ThunderROM │Coming Soon![0.1][Bricked-Kernel]]

This ROM is being based off Xboarder, it is total basic. Much faster than Xboarder. You guys will see all the system apps i deleted! Everything is extra smooth. I removed lwp but u can add them later!

Welcome, always good to have another chef in the kitchen! Waiting for more details ...

Might be the youngest chef here on XDA, 12 years old! Can't wait to see what you got cooking.

He's twelve? I feel like such a failure now.

For some reason, I don't believe this guy is twelve (I may be wrong), but what happen with this kids childhood your days of playing all the time are not suppose to be OVER!
Hard to believe a 12 year is/can dev, especially the way he said in the OP

i think we should stop being surprised by age and everything with the doubting and whatever. im just wondering what a kid would be doing with a cell phone like a sensation at his age and who was the one that taught him or when he started learning.
if this is coming out soon, please include the ring lockscreen style

People are making a big deal about this and he hasn't posted anything yet. Don't get me wrong, I encourage all people to share on xda if they want to but from the sounds of it he deleted some system apps and might of made a couple tweaks. I'm not downgrading him at all cuz even that is impressive at age 12. Xboarder has developed some nice stuff for the age of 16 which is truly awesome! I wish both of you youngins great success .

How long will this be a "coming soon" thread? That is, when will you have a ROM ready for download?
Reason I ask is that we generally don't allow "coming soon" threads. Let me know, and if it's not too far off, I'll leave the thread here for now

How do youngsters learn all this stuff???? I want to learn!!

Bring the ROM my clever kid ! : )

Not being funny, but the 'chef' isn't a chef. It's another ROM with some more taken out. I hope he has the ROM-makers permission to use his ROM as a base for his...
Also, thought 'coming soon' threads were banned?

Considering the "ROM-maker" has actually replied in this thread himself, I'd say that it's not a problem and all cleared with both parties.
And you obviously didn't read my post either, only a few above yours.

Arguments Between Developer's

The arguments between you guys have to stop, if you have an argument with another dev, don't take matters into your own hands! PM me, and it will be taken care of. It has gotten ridiculous how many arguments I've seen. It needs to STOP. Users are also welcome to pm me when they see an argument. Hacking your device has always been about fun and challenge, but just as important is keeping the community strong. Respect others! :highfive:

Yeah

Well said
Basing on what you said, this is really quite the right thing to do. To focus more on the development of our device and unite as one so that we can achieve what we always crave for; to develop our devices to unlock it's full capabilities.
This is the main concept of this forum i believe, and arguments will only create distractions for devs for fulfilling the goal. Although there are times that slight misjudgements are occuring, nevertheless lets not forget why where here guys.

Bro, if only you knew how hard it is to build CM for ths device. This device is truly a peice of s##t. I have built nearly 30 builds already and it is just error, after error, after error. The latest push from Squadzone wont even build!!!!!!
Please be my guest and try it yourself. I honestly feel like giving up. No drivers for gpu, means no CM for this device. What a peice of crap

A Noob's intro and thanks!

First off...I just want to say I give mad props to A LOT of helpful input from sources too many to count. What can I say, I've lurked here for months (much like I do other forums of interest) and am just amazed by what little knowledge I have. LMAO! OK so, I'm not a stooopid guy, but the first time I popped in it was like a foreign language. Needless to say I'm picking up what your dropping day to day by not asking, but researching on my own<<<< (NOTE TO OTHER NOOBS). I have to admit, growing up in the 80's and being one of the only kids that I knew that had multiple pc's in the house (including trash 80, sx-64...etc. etc. I know, give me hell about em), it really irks me sometimes that I never took the time to actually learn something that would be so beneficial because I had [enter whatever BS here] to do! Second, if there just so happens to be some teens/high schoolers here that clicked on some erroneous Siri search about boobs en vitro spanks (refer to title, 'cause you know the "iDontknowwatyoujustsaidphone" doesn't hear very well) stay awhile and learn something! In addition, if you're not a teen, but just want to expand some knowledge base in your grey matter, get funky with the search bar!

Dude. I've been lurking for over a year, and everyday I learn something new. The people here are awesome and as long as you are posting in the right spot, not bugging the devs with demands and other BS, and trying to answer what questions you have on your own, there is always someone who will try to help.
I for one would like to give a thumbs up to just about everyone on the infuse forum!

Glad you mentioned it. For those out there who are subject to ask a dev "hey, can I have a different, pretty pink font?", or "I've been on facebook nonstop and my battery life is horrible".....please refrain. Not only does it Pi$$ off the devs (ref. noob vid) but it requires others who actually do want to learn something to read through countless threads of BS that isn't going to help. In other words, you're stepping on the toes of those whom this site is for. I'm sorry if you heard you could have the bestest phone with 1 simple step from some link on a yahoo site, but this ain't that site. (written in C_hoosierism)

I would absolutely not trust that website. All of the links in the header point back to the same page. It looks like an SEO hijacking attempt (and all the comments are like "thanks for helping me with my phone" which the Xoom is obviously not).

I'm attempting to work on my first rom, or at least help the community get L working. having trouble building a kernel atm =/

As far as I know, BigRushDog is working on Lollipop for the XOOM. Give it time and it may come...patience is a virtue!

I think you're right. I tried going to the base site and it was the same instructions, only for a Samsung phone with the same name and compliments attached.
I Dio know that there are several people here that are working on this issue.
Just wanted to let you know that it was these same wonderful people who worked so hard to bring us stable versions of 4.4.4, and this was within 2 months of Google's release of the upgrade. Thanks so much guys!

As many of us i still love my XOOM, too and the best thing in 2015 would be a safe and working and GOOGLE BULL**** FREE ROM for the xoom.
So anbody working on that ...... give us some hope + info if you work on it and if you need any kind of support.

Hey guys,
I have a used MZ604 that I have been wanting to sell, but never got around to listing it. I would be more than happy to sell it directly to someone here for L ROM development purposes for less than $300. If there is another way I can contribute, I would like to know, as I am anxious for this ROM.

Unless selinux can be disabled, or the ROM is available with it disabled by default, don't bother. Lollipop breaks user control big time!
