ROMS for T230NU

Development? Anyone?

There is one guy I saw posted on a rooting thread that he has developed a ROM for this device but, does not know how to write the updater-script so he is looking for help with that. Perhaps you can help.
You can find that post HERE

i wish! i know nothing about development. :crying: i would love to learn. but that doesnt help anyone here. i started a step by step to port CM but got stuck because i couldnt find kernel source. PLEASE someone, we got root, now get us off touchwiz!

I have ported roms in the past to Kindle Fire HD from the Nexus tabs. It's way easier to port than to build a rom from scratch. The tricky part is finding the easiest roms to work with.

Well I can't do either.
Wouldn't we want to get something on here other than stock?
I'll take a port! Lol

here you can find the kernel source http://opensource.samsung.com/reception.do

Well I would think that you would need a working custom recovery with external SD card support first. Though the big feature I am looking forward to is a kernel that supports Roehsoft Ram Expander (swap) which while it works fine on my S3 does not work at all on the Tab 4 7.0.

There is a fully working recovery with SDcard read/write support as mentioned in THIS post.
What I did was downloaded the TWRP 2.8.0.1 .img for t230 then flashed it over the older non-working TWRP using #Rashr. It works for me on SM-T230NU and wipe works. Dalvik/Cache, everything.

I already have root (by using vroot and then replacing the chinese app with supersu). Can I just flash TWRP with Rashr or do I need to redo the whole thing from scratch?

I resstored the device in odin to the latest factory firmware then flashed the twrp in odin, rebooted directly to recovery and flashed supersu. Rebooted to system, set up all my stuff and flashed the new twrp over the old twrp using rashr. I had to reboot once to set up rashr before i could flash but, it all worked perfectly for me

cant start over if it wont turn on at all and i believe the battery is dead and it wont charge.
ive read about this issue with other galaxy tabs (2,3) and i need to open up and disconnect battery, i will try this when i get home. i hope it does something after. i just got this thing.
i cant just flash the good twrp instead of one over the other?

Thanks to Myfluxi!
Not sure where this post will end up, as I am a new member and am not permitted to post in the thread I clicked on.
I became a member specifically so I could thank myfluxi for all his hard work over the past 9 months on the hammerhead builds!
The amount of work involved just... stuns me -- I have a hard time keeping up with my own work, let alone contributing to any community development. Your work will be sorely missed.
I wish you well... and the best of luck with any new projects you will be working on!
cheers,

A question-
1. As this is based on AOSP, what changes you did in the kernel or ramdisk to get ROM to boot to homescreen?
Because, if kernels like ThunderZap (until 4.15) is flashed on AOSP based ROMs, results in bootloop.

[XL]Multirom! Anyone up? Test 1

I recently ported MultiROM to Xperia M and I have the sources up and I am willing not to waste them.
Disclaimer : I am not responsible for anything that happens to you or your device after flashing this mod. Though, nothing generally happens when you do it right. Make backup, always.
I have ported it xperia M
Here are some files for testing
You need CM-12.1 installed to test this.
Links removed
RECOVERY.IMG - To be flashed on fota partition
XL_CM-kexec-xx-xx-xxxx.zip - To be flashed in recovery
multirom-xxxxxxxx-v31x-UNOFFICIAL-taoshan.zip - To be flashed in recovery
Next boot should come up with multirom menu
If it does, post screens, if doesn't , post last_kmsg.
Due to lack of my knowledge, I have dismissed this project.

I used sources and device tree from CM's repo
Doesn't matter, because I had removed assert from updater-script and no ROM flashing is required in here.
So all files must be good and compatible.

Hey, great job in compiling this. I want to try this out but what are the risks? Can I get hardbricked?

The recovery included in the recovery.img is Cyanogen Recovery.
So cannot able to flash those zips.
I heard MultiROM uses modded TWRP.
Please check

i did have a look at this recovery.img ... its definitly a TWRP build... but its damn wrong.... wrong qcom.fstab and recovery.fstab ... NO twrp.fstab ... healthhd seems to have wrong size (ok im not 100% with that but experience says it must be bigger) ... the Size of theme images is wrong.... AND the ramdisk size is totally above the size the kernel will load... thats why it leads to a "broken" recovery-load .... that will lead to a emergency load of kernel-inbuild recovery....
@ OP didnt you got make errors? after seeing this im sure you have build with -i -k

ok without any kind of warranty that this will work... i have manipulated this recovery.img (NOT BUILD FROM SOURCE! MANUALLY REPAIR! ) ... maybe this works maybe not....
like you know my device is gone atm.... so maybe if my device is back i will have a deeper look into this...

I recently ported MultiROM to Xperia M and I have the sources up and I am willing not to waste them.

By making blind builds, you do "waste" the source code.

I used sources and device tree from CM's repo

And you seriously expect a working build?

No, definitely not. He just used my sources (XperiaMultiROM) to compile it, which is a piece of cake. Honestly, if porting MultiROM was just a matter of compiling, monkeys could do it too.
OP: Blind builds are not encouraged on XDA. Especially when they're untested and broken.
And no, this shouldn't hardbrick your phone. You'll need to reflash your kernel and the system partition in the worst case.

BTW maybe you let a word down on cm12.1 thread? Its a while ago now as varun said you will maintain our device... It would be nice to have a word from yourself about if its true or not

To everyone:
I am sorry for doing it all wrong and blindly. I just had ported to a similar device and had it working perfectly.
Never knew CM sources wouldn't work for XL. Basically I trusted on CM people for device tree and kernel, which I shouldn't have definitely.
If anyone feels to, can apply for closing down the thread. I have other devices, I'll try getting it to work on them.
Thank you
