Here comes the moment of truth for me. This feels like I'm about to receive my exam results, haha.
Typical that 2 weeks after I put in a lot of work, it gets released.

Just saw that too ;-)
Confused that the Post Date on the site says July 30/09.

TigerTael: Haha. Report back and let us know how accurate you were!
vro25: They are lying lol. They were *supposed* to get it out by then.

I would like to, but I cannot download anything until tomorrow.

Yeah, that's a bluff by HTC! haha...
Are we gonna see better ROMs for the 32A Magics?? I can't wait...lol!

I think TigerTael and rayman84 have already done it actually .

True, maybe there's still more to be tweaked?

Downloading now. TigerTael I will let you know though I'm pretty sure you check out 100% else it wouldn't boot. Simple as that!

You certainly did a great job with the reverse engineering, kudos to you!

I have a strong feeling your work here HAD sth to do with htc releasing the sources
Though there was alot of Twitter harassment from bcrook this past week

Agreed with both the statements. Well, maybe TigerTael could also find *his* code in that sources...

For sure your calculation will match in many aspects, you made a great work..
I hope that this will even solve more issues and help people make more developments!!

I have just reviewed the HTC kernel source and it looks like HTC actually pulled their thumbs out of their arse!
Besides the two memory differences below, HTC added a bit of logic via if/else commands. YAY!
There are two memory differences between my kernel patch and HTC's. They are:
Mine:
VMALLOC_END (PAGE_OFFSET + 0x19200000)
Theirs:
VMALLOC_END (PAGE_OFFSET + 0x20000000)
Mine:
MSM_EBI_SIZE 0x0CE00000
Theirs:
MSM_EBI_SMI32_256MB_SIZE 0x0C600000
You can't really blame me too much for these as they were impossible to reverse engineer. I could only come to a size based on differential calculation from the 32B source.
Also, those who know, will recall that I wasn't too sure about my EBI size.

Yes well I've been running a ROM with those incorrect EBI sizes for 3 days straight with not even a minor issue, so I guess it doesn't matter now does it?

Thanks for your effort, TigerTael.
It was an exciting moment, when your team race for an answer.
And we're having fun with many version of rom.

Yeah, it's probably not important at all really. Just glad to see we finally got the source. (Wish I would've known that 2 weeks ago)
However, I did learn a lot and I gathered some very useful tools that will come in very handy in the future when I end up having to reverse engineering the Sony Ericsson X3 kernel. XD

CDMA Hero Kernel Source Code available!

http://developer.htc.com/
ITS THERE!

nice!!!!!
hopefully a bunch of new roms will be on the way!!

Can anybody please explain what exactly we can be done now that we have the kernel source??

ANYTHING!!!
EDIT:
Ok, so my enthusiasm is jumping the gun abit.
With the kernel source we can now make VERY custom roms, before we were primarily just playing with APK's and resource files, no real dramatic changes to the phone.
Now with the kernel source we can actually go in to the OS and fix issues, like that dang'd location bug. Also, there are debugging features that were left turned on in the code when the phone shipped, this slows the phone down, hopefulyl when we get a good soild rom we can turn them off and see a performance gain. We will also be able to get a fully functional 2.1 update, loads of other things as well. Way to much for me to sit here and hammer out on the keyboard. Possibilities are now almost limit less...other than stuff that our hardware is limtited to....

Once you have the kernel source, you can do anything you wish: optimize the kernel, add new support for filesystems, add new modules, completely add a newer build of linux...and that's just what I can think of off the top of my head.

YYYYEEEESSSSS!!!!!!!!!!

Yes...that's one aspect of it. But it is really for the developers to build custom ROMs similar to what the developers do with the GSM Hero.

This.
message too short

Anyone notice the user name in the tarball? Rexlin Maybe we can contact him and see what changed.

FINALLY! Can't wait to get a fully functional/customized 2.1 ROM eventually

not sure if anybody else noticed but ...
The files in
include/config/mach/ and below are all zero size not sure if this is an issue yet but....
edit -
just checked, there are 505 files that have a size of zero, those of you with Linux (or linux tools) can type
Code:
find . -size 0c
or
find . -size 0c | more
to see which files have a zero length. The following "hero" files are zero length
Code:
./include/config/mach/heroc.h
./include/config/mach/hero.h
./include/config/mach/heroct.h
./include/config/mach/hero/espresso.h
-TL

doesn't this mean that a rom can be released with a modified kernel that allows changing the clock speed beyond 528mhz?

This is my problem to much college homework

t=721358here's a link to a sense froyo rom. Not sure how much this will help, I'd assume there'd only be a couple of tweaks to get it to work on an aria. however, I also have no idea what I'm talking about

that rom wont work well and there would be a lot to do to port it because its from the desire which is wvga, not to mention alot of the hardware is different.

mang we so lucky. attn rules xda! now go help the captivate dev team.
i think i will go buy me a captivate too. its too good to pass up.
Man i can't wait for Froyo!!!! Yeah Baby...

ideos (u8150) development team? I.D.T

Hello to all of my ideos (u8150) users and developers. today an amazing developer stopped working on an amazing rom, (which i have on my ideos) and because of this i browsed many roms for this phone and came up with nothing that could compare to it, and inspiration struck and i thought "since work for the rom is discontinued, and there is lack of support for many other roms, why not try to ban together a team to work on an even better rom?
before continuing, let me point out im not a dev. matter of fact i know nothing about writing roms, but i do know that the ideos is a brillant phone that deserves a strong team to back up software for it. thats where the developers that i will try to recruit will come in.
the basic idea of this "project" is simple.
1. one developer will start with a basic version. when he is done with contributions, he will then pass it on to another, then another, and so on.
2. finally, when the team sees the project as coming to a rap, the rom will be distributed through out the team and tested, and as problems come up, the team can collaberate on the issues, and when everything is working properly, RELEASE!!!!!
now i know some readers of this will ask "whats the difference between this and how roms are made now? well its simple, the objective of this is to expand the margin of knowledges from different locations, instead of using near by developers and friends. keep in mind what one area knows, one may not.
anyway, any dev is welcome to join to the project. rules and regs will be added when a variety of members have joined.
also, if any ideas of how the team will collaberate come up, feel free to offer up what you got
PLEASE JOIN!!!!!

come on people give me feed back!!!
a little incentive? okay. if a larger development team works on the roms then, roms could be produced faster, and more efficent. so if any developers are out there reading, then take up the project. with alot of devs, it wont be too time consuming either, thus making it so you could work on your own roms as well.

Greetings :hi:
I'm in ^^
not a .dev or much of anything @ the mo :lol: owned the U8150 for a couple months now (previously modding Motorola)
bricked & brought back to life my IDEOS four times... (so far) ph seems pretty indestructible but very sensitive to any system fiddling.
linux is confusing the heck outa me :chortle: back to the bottom of the learning curve I guess
but I'll help in any way I can...

great, im glad i have another supporter on bored !!!!! the first thing that needs to be done befor anything is rally up more support. we need devs, stat. even if they dont normally do ideos roms, the more support for this we get, the better the chances of this working out. if possible i would like to get the development process started sometime this week so i really need you to get any, higher ups or (most importantly) developers, to get on bored.
and for any ideos user reading this, its for all of our benifits so help out too!!!!

also, i would like to point out, that the process i listed to begin with dosnt have to be how it works. i want the devs to decide how the collaberation works.
just think of all the things that yall want out of the ideos. if this happens, there will be a higher chance of these things happening.
1. 3D
2. can i hear a 2.3?
3. cyanogen mod
4. over clocking that actually works!!!!
5. maybe instead of knock offs of 2.2 or 2.2 with a different launcher and them, we could actually see REAL homebrew roms that are 100% user created.
now you cant tell me that dosnt sound good right?

I want overclocking that works

well there you go!!!! as soon as we can get some developers on bored with "working together" then we might can achieve that and many other goals.

I am in,
My idea is not to have many features and concentrating on developing 2.3 first and then slowly on 3.0.

alright!!!!!! but let me go ahead and tell you, 3.0 would blow up an ideos . it wont even load a honeycomb theme much less the system. (turns ideos into a pile of ask and smoke.) 2.3 would be the better focus in my opinion. but anyway back to the thanks yous and campaigning, thanks for joining and if possible get every single person (even if the only electronic they know how to use is vcr) that is at least somewhat capable of programing roms.
so the point is still.......you guessed it!!!!.........MORE PEOPLE!!!!!!
.........sorry i had 4 hours of sleep so im stupid right now.

3.0 is for qHD tablets(540 x 960).. while our device is qvga (240 x 320).. it surely can load and everything but.. won't be able to display every single detail, such as the taskbar will be miniature...Apart from that, it's better to continue developing 2.3 Gingerbread, since we already have the ports and the only leftovers will be tweaking the builds we already have to make them useful.
Thank you!
Count me in.

As for the project itself - great idea. I think focusing on gingerbread is the way to go along with a kernel overclock with gingerbread

Heres a link to the Oced kernel http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?2370q8r5tx4fish. Just chmod the file in Linux and Mac and for all Oses just double click the appropriate file to flash the new boot image. You will need to be in bootloader mode when you do this.

you see? careing and sharing CAN be fun joking aside i love the smell of development in the morning. this is a great start. so its agreed 2.3 is the best approach? well then maury 1234 seems to have a lot done on it so i say, (if its allright with her) build of hers. its deffinatly up for consideration so maury what you say?

oh and btw maury, sadly i cant install the v3 to see how its working because im stuck with an outdated version of clockwork -_- so do you have any testers?

use ultrajack's recovery....later on ill update update-script to updater

okay so i installed ultrajack, downloaded the rom, installed it but i got stock clean rom v5 instead of gingerbread. apperently the link to the download was right but what it downloads was wrong. do you have a fix?

[DEV] Android Revolution HD Alpha[unreleased]

Okay, so first thing first, the kitchen is awesome. I'm surprised no one else has jumped onto it.
Secondly, I know I have to fix up other ROMs to pure awesomeness, but school is buttraping me and I barely have time to do anything that actually requires thinking.
That all being said, I want to launch my own open beta team. I don't have all the time to test everything and fix everything on my own. As part of the beta team, you can test and even send in fixes for the ROM. Sadly I have to depend on others ATM, but school is soon coming to a close and it gets terrible at this time.
Now with the good stuff
This ROM is another port, it's a modified version of Sense 2.1. Came from the Desire HD. Still cooking right now, but I'll be out with it in a few moments (assuming it works; if it doesn't, we try a new ROM. )
It's coming soon, so be patient! And if you'd like to beta test, help, drop hints, or anything, just say so, all help is appreciated

Thanks bro, can't wait for that to drop... Will the pics be compressed in this ROM?

I can't remember where i had even seen init.glacier.ro .. the kitchen does most of the work, but getting it to boot is my job.. once it at least boots, I'll release it hopefully it'll be by tonight. After that, I'll head back to RCMixGlacier to fight round two with the camera.
