if ParanoidAndroid is opensource, does that make it easier to build for our hardware?

once we get kernel source, yes

We don't need kernel source to have that. Idk why people think we need source to do everything. The only good thing about kernel source is oc and uv

umm and libs and drivers aren't different between the tegra 3 and Snapdragon S4?

Yes they are but you don't need source. I come from the att note which doesn't have official ics or source and we had pa. Pa is a aosp rom like cm9 and aokp and we have both of those. Which shows kernel source is not needed
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

We don't need kernel source for the initial port, though we probably will to get the port bug free (for example, the CM9 build and multitouch).
I tried downloading the PA source a few days back but it kept erroring out (something about signatures not being trusted or something)
It might just be an SSL error on my PC, I'll have another go at it sometime soon. Seems like an intriguing ROM.

Yea its a cool rom. A team mate ported it to the note and its pretty bug free. I haven't looked at their sources lately but have they released source for pad?

I'm sorry I've looked at paranoid android before and for some reason I was confusing it with Coredroid.
I haz a stupid.
However, kernel source will make building an AOSP kernel much easier. Right now we're using the One S kernel source and while it works for the most part, there are still some niggling issues as can be seen in the AOKP and CM9 threads.
But hell yeah build that thang!

Yea in that aspect source will be great but since the kernel for cm9 seems good it'll work for now. But if any one does do this good luck they put their code everywhere and if you miss one strand it won't work

tips?
if i was possibly considering the idea of maybe taking a stab at this port, anyone have any tips or good reference information? i have a little java experience but am comfortable with the SDK & adb and such.

learn how to build from source first
then learn how to merge cm9 commits into a local clone of paranoidandroid repo
then build it, and upload your device tree to git for others to work on

[FIX][CWM ZIP] Youtube/Video hot reboot fix for qsd8k devices [4.1.1][EV based JB]

Hi there,
I've created a (temporarily) fix for the Evervolv based Jellybean hot reboot problem we have when playing video/youtube for the HD2.
Since we use and share a lot of stuff from the great work of texasice and the rest of the evervolv team this will probably work on other qsd8k devices who suffer from the same issue as well (no guarantees)
I thought it would be nice to give something back to the community untill this is fixed by the dev team..
Download evjb_qsd8k_mediafix.zip - mirror (flash via recovery)
Try it and see if it works and Remember that all the flashing is at your own risk ! Always make a nand backup in recovery
Source: I am not a dev and I just like to experiment with libs from different devices so have not compiled this fix from source.
Instead I've taken these libs from the jellybean msm7x30 platform (Desire HD) and replaced them with ours. (dirty hack so to speak)
The good news is that they have sources so you will have to look there since they seem to be a bit ahead with development compared to our qsd8k platform...
I hope this information will help the real devs making a 'proper' fix.

The version you stated uses the same thunderzap kernel by vatun.chitre[most part of it]..and it will work without much problem because cm9 is based on 4.0.4 and thunderzap is based on mmxa110 4.0.4 kernel sources which was released by mmx at the first place....and we still do not know if they will release JB kernel sources or not…so I am not sure if cm10 works will go the same way as of the cm9....I will try to compare the two kernels later today though......

CM9 is not a problem, IMO. I think If someone just starts it it can be completed within a week[atleast boot].. Because everything is available.[ kernel source + CM sources + device tree]. But CM10 requires 4.2 kernel sources which has not been released while CM9 requires 4.0.4 kernel[source code available publicly + thunderzap is based on 4.0.4 kernel, so no need to do much work on kernel.]
EDIT:
A110 Device tree : https://github.com/varunchitre15/android_device_a110
Thunderzap[based on 4.0.4 kernel sources] : https://github.com/varunchitre15/thunderzap_canvas_2
and CM9 sources links : you can get from their website...
4.0.4 Similar Stock Kernel : https://github.com/aquila-dev/wiko_s9081_stock_kernel
Now what I found yesterday is WIKO Cink-King JB kernel sources : https://github.com/wiko-sources/cink-king
So, I now think that If we do some progress we can correctly boot CM10 by using the JB kernel to edit and get a custom kernel for a110...I am not very sure...This is what I think...If anyone can advice, It would be great...

fyi - those build DO NOT REQUIRE any Custom Kernel. i switched zImage in the CM9 boot.img and worked like a charm. we`ll need to get those mediatek propietary sources working. im working on a CM9 myself, does not get further than our french friends here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2246892 .

I have no idea on this part...because, till today I thought kernel customizations are needed to run cm. So we can use the cink-king sources + device tree a110 for this. I really have no idea...

me neither xD does not have such coding skillz yet. for this build, on this point, it isn`t necessary. maybe you cant use e.g. TUN/TAP when not compiled in the kernel, but basic features should work.

Delete

I'm one of those frenchies that try to make it work. As you saw we made it boot actually without that much problem, but before saying it works there's a lot of work.
I'd like to explain one small thing here since it seems people or thinking that because Cyanogen released the sources, we can get something working on any device. THIS IS WRONG. Even if we have a kernel sources or a "device tree"
Cyanogen includes some vendor sources, like Qualcomm for exemple. This why you'll get some things like
Code:
BOARD_USES_QCOM_HARDWARE := true
COMMON_GLOBAL_CFLAGS += -DQCOM_HARDWARE -DBINDER_COMPAT -DANCIENT_GL
COMMON_GLOBAL_CFLAGS += -DQCOM_LEGACY_OMX
in your "device tree" configuration.
Then take a look at the stuff that are in android_hardware_* there's some source code for qcom, some for samsung some for texas instrument and strangely nothing regarding mediatek. Those files are important otherwise we need to use the binaries already compiled to make them work.
Looking at the assembly code from the actual wiko-peax running under ICS, some modifications have bee done on hwcomposer. So we can't use directly the provided headers that are inside cyanogen sources since they are not the one used by mediatek. Mediatek hwcomposer for instance uses a mmumapper that nobody else uses.
I didn't look deeply at the JB binaries from mediatek, but I don't think that they like miraculously decided to switch and be directly compatible with the AOSP sources, so here there's a lot of work to do on the sources themselves.
This is why we're trying to work on CM9 since some partial sources have been leaked about an actual device running ICS. Thoses sources are much more modified then the one that goes with the binaries we have, but can be start point.

[Dev][Kernel] M7 GPE Kernel port | 1.4KGSL and updated QDSP

Hello
Many of you know that me and Imagio have been working on porting the Htc one mini software over to Evita.
well in order to do this I had to build a very special kernel with upgraded KGSL and some other stuff that HTC added into the upstream 4.2.2
This is a port of M7 GPE kernel source to One XL
it is based on the 4.2.2 Google Play Edition M7 (HTC One) Kernel source and has updated KGSL/MDP/Sound/bluetooth/gps etc drivers.....
this includes jb1.4 kgsl (for devs)
I will not be including flashable builds until there are roms to support it.. This is for other devs to get started on their projects if htey would like
You can find my code here
https://github.com/zarboz/Evita_UL_422-JB/tree/master
If building things to note:
build with gcc 4.7 or lower (4.8 causes failure to boot for now)
build kgsl mainstream
disable GPMMU for kgsl
enable HTC_FD_MONITOR in config
Things that work:
Everything
There are special care/instructions for wifi for developers.
I am using prima_wlan code from CM10-1
that means all romside firmware in /etc/ the wcnss** files and other wlan folder need to come from cm-10.1 proprietary tree
Enjoy guys hopefully this will spark some development
​
What this kernel is for: Any 4.2.2 Sense based roms will be able to run or any rom with a 1.4 or lesser KGSL HAL
Whats added:
Prima_wlan built from source
M7 MDP drivers
M7 Sound drivers
M7 GPU drivers
M7 Adreno drivers
Updated Rawchip drivers (must use m7 liboemcamera.so and camera related libs )
i mean its the HTC One kernel with Evita support added
dont tell me you tried to flash that zip
it wont work
its the firmware/modules/zImage that a dev will need to test their rom ports with

What do you want, without kernel source?
And related to custom roms: Aren't there really cool mods already?
As 4.1.2 was out, first the mods where made, then, when enough mods are ready, the custom roms came.

Before the beginning of February we should not expect the appearance of the kernel source code for our model.

You would either have to build from scratch or port it to our device. Cyanogenmod has some tutorials on how to port their materials. Neither is easy lol.

I - one of the developers of this kernel. The site htcdev.com not currently contains the kernel source version 4.2.2 for our phone. Presumably these source code will be available in late January. So - is not yet any developments from me and the people with whom I work.
