Looking for cifs.ko for Shield to access windows shares - Shield Q&A

Hi,
I'm trying to find a cifs module to access windows shares from the Shield with no luck so far. Does anybody know where I can find one already compiled for the latest kernel?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2398836 <- You may want to check out the kernel thread. I wouldn't expect anyone to have it ready for a while. There are still a few bigger issues to resolve.
...I also think this thread might be a bit misleading since it's looking for and not offering the cifs.ko but whatever.

When you go to edit the first post, choose advanced editor. It lets you change it from there. I'm sure once we can get kernels building, getting a module will be swift.

No help in the general area... WiFi Tether Question

I did my searching here and google and cant seem to find out how to get the WEP 128bit Encryption to work on my MT3G. I have enabled it in the settings and it still shows unsecure on my laptop when connecting.

I have not. This featured has worked on previos ROMs and now that I have found a ROM that is fast and suits me, it does not work. I'm sure it has something to do with the IPTables or wpa_supplicant file, but I do not know enough about that to fix it. Hints why Im asking for help.

so, you are using that "myhero"-rom ... right? which version of wpa_supplicant is installed? type "wpa_supplicant -v" in a console. i bet it's v0.5.10!

I am running the MyHero2.2 and you are correct... the wpa_supplicant version is v0.5.10. Should I have another version? How would one get it and install it?

wep-encryption does not work on ANY hero-rom. see here for instance: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/issues/detail?id=194#c39
if you want wep-encryption take another rom for your sapphire. this is a rom-related issue:

I will look at that Harry. Thanks. I have had the encryption working on a few Hero ROMS before. I may just have to revert back to one of the older ones til a new one comes out. I like the look and feel of the Hero on my MT3G over the Normal Android. Its not as boring.

[ROM][S4][JB 4.2.2] CyanogenMod 10.1 for Ville

Hello, since CyanogenMod cannot be officially build and the official ones are outdated, I thought it might be helpful for someone to build and release it.
So i started syncing the repo and compiling, and right now i'm running the lastest daily build on my Ville.
This is just CyanogenMod. This is exactly how the official one would be.
Instructions
You need a custom recovery!
- Download ROM and GApps from below links
- Reboot into recovery
- Flash ROM
- Flash GApps
- To solve tearing, flash a custom kernel
If you're S-ON
- Extract boot.img from the ZIP of the kernel you're flashing
- Reboot into bootloader and select fastboot
- Connect it to the PC
- Run fastboot flash boot boot.img (where boot.img is the path of the boot.img file if it's not in the same folder)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Downloads
ROM - Get one from here or here
GApps - Download
CyanogenMod suffers from tearing. To fix this, you can flash a different AOSP kernel, like Bubba Kernel.

Hi,
thanks for the work! I also tried to build latest CM10.1 yesterday, however I failed to extract all the required blobs from my device. May I ask, which ROM you used to extract the blobs from? The latest officially build cm10.1 is lacking 3 files here....
Thanks!

When I run extract-files.sh I get:
remote object '/system/bin/hci_qcomm_init' does not exist
remote object '/system/lib/hw/gps.default.so' does not exist
remote object '/system/lib/libgps.so' does not exist
remote object '/system/lib/libloc_ext.so' does not exist
I'm not sure whether that's actually a problem or not, but to me it looks like at least GPS will not work...
My build also didn't boot, I couldn't load the adreno drivers due to missing symbols...
Did you do anything other special?

If you get those errors while extracting files from your phone i don't think that the branch you used matters.
Maybe it could be a driver issue or something similiar?

What do you mean by driver issue?
The files are clearly not there in the last officially built nightly, I am using cm-10.1-20130312-NIGHTLY-ville.zip.
So I guess either
- you are using another rom to extract from, or
- you pulled and build another branch of cm10.1 (which doesn't require those files for some reason) than I am trying to build.

That's the newer you can get from get.cm
I didn't had GApps (i don't think that matters), and i synced everything following the official guide so if you did too, that shouldn't be the issue.

transparent file streaming. meaning no buffer time. it's as if you're accessing the file in your internal storage. useful for streaming large files (like HD films) from your computer.
someone please correct me if I'm wrong though.

It doesn't mean no buffer time but it essentially means that any app can access it and you don't have to rely on per-app support.
Buffer time is also usually lessened.
This really looks promising, gotta give a try. Thanks, man

thanks for the explanation.
I seem to recall if I use apps like es file explorer to access videos on pc, I'd have to wait until the full file being transferred to the device (I assume some sort of local temporary file would be created), and then only the video starts playing. however with cifs this was not the case. the video would just play normally as if it was located in the phone storage. note that this was my experience a couple of years back though.
Isn't the kernel the source for the knock on feature for waking up or closing the screen?

Awesome work! thanks!,
Would it be possible to add some I/O Schedulers, like BFQ and such? and maybe faux sound?
That would be super epic if possible!
If someone could provide the boot.img or zip to flash that would be highly appreciated. I flashed the development kernel from the other thread and I'm getting a few random reboots.

Do you have access to the nVidia developer site? You can grab the stock one from there before try this one.

To be fair. I think it may have been my deadline scheduler changes that caused the issue. Changed back to bfq and now OK.
Regarding using this kernel, I'm used to recovering from boot loops, blank screens etc etc. I have no issue testing beta/alpha stuff and appreciate the risks

Build the same kernel, but swap the ramdisk. Having a published kernel doesn't ban you from asking questions in the kernel development thread. There is no point trying to reinvent the wheel when you could be driving.

Custom Rom for Galaxy J700T ??

Are there any custom roms or stock stripped roms out>??? PLOX post links!!!!!!!!!!
I've been wondering the same thing since June. Seems like all the ROMs are geared towards the F/H/M. I've have tried installing ROMs for other variants with messi2050's kernel. The only one I got to boot was the Note 7 ROM by Allosh. But WiFi did not work.
Hmmm... Any other issues? What about that ROM allowed for you to boot and function I wonder?
If we can get a bounty going for WiFi fix on that ROM we could possibly be on to something....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just copy the wifi files in /system/etc from a stock firmware with a root file manager to the same folder and give it the correct permissions in the N7 rom. The real problem is getting the Camara to work.

My best advice for you is to deodex your factory ROM and decompile your system framework apk(s). All of the ports you see are derived the same way. This device will never see CM/RR/Lineage ported over.

edit build.prop then unroot?

Hi all, wondering if anyone's had success editing their /system/build.prop, then unrooting (either by flashing a clean boot partition or using the menu option in SuperSU) - and having their build.prop changes stick?
Just looking for some information on whether I'm doing something wrong, or if this is a new security feature and I should stop trying
I should mention I'm using the latest Nougat, 7.1.2 sailfish-njh47f. The goal is to enable tethering and unroot for peace of mind. Thanks!
Bump everyone, im interested in this too. Haa someone done this? Btw, im on s8 but makes no difference whatsoever.
Someone?
