Youngs kernels thread Compilation

Hi guys so this will be basically be just the same as my guide on the general section...
Only this time it will be specific to Kernels
As of the moment we have 2 Kernels the are being worked upon
V's(viveks kernels) and M's Kernel(merruks) both are still works in progress so please bear with me on this but once they are both done of course change logs etc will be posted here for easier reference as well...
If more kernels will be developed then everything will be compiled here as well..
so for the moment..
let this be my opening staments
What Is A Kernel really?
Corn kernels are used as pelletized fuel for pellet stoves and furnaces. Corn kernels are a natural pellet, which gives them a huge economic advantage over other man-made biomass pellets and wood pellets.
well not that kernel...
Kernel
The central or core software component of most operating systems. Its responsibilities include managing the system's resources (the communication between hardware and software components) and can provide the lowest-level abstraction layer for resources (especially memory, processors, and I/O devices). (from xda wiki)
What is a Custom Kernel
Well is basically allows you to do a lot of things like underclocking overclocking,initd scripts support for performance tweaks...
make your phone dance and drink beer,,,that sorta stuff..hope you get my point...custom kernels allow you to do taht stock kernels wont...
Right now
We basically have 4 Kernels
they would be
Stock kernel
Terma's Kernel
Viveks Kernel
Merruks kernel
among these 4 only 2 are at this point suitable for daily use(well we could do 3 but there has been reports of not booting up)
one would be the stock kernel next be Terma's kernel which supports a2sd (not sure if init.d is supported can anyone aside from me confirm this)
merruks kernel would be the tentative third since alpha7.50rc20 boot on some and boots not on some...
as for the mean time 80 percent of the kernels are work in progress...
hands down to the devs that are creating them please let us continue to show supprt for the betterment of our devices
and world peace(with matching miss universe hand wave)
Merruk kernel Update 03.25.2012
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1550065&page=123
Done...!
This One is the Final Beta One. ( We need to create a new topic here )
Instructions :
1 : Put the Ext4.zip on Your SD-Card.
2 : Extract The Content of Sustem.zip to the Root of your SD-Card (DRIVE_LETTER:/system). Take it from the previews Post.
3 : Flash the Kernel Via Odin (YOU CAN DO WHAT YOU WANT THERE IS MANY OTHER METHODS).
4 : Boot into CWM Recovery (FIXED THIS TIME).
5 : Install Ext4.zip.
6 : Wipe DATA & CACHE (NOT NEDDED BUT PREFERABLE).
7 : ENJOOOOOOY. (Check the internal memory )

Kernels
nicely put.
as you probably already knew, kernels are the core of an operating system.
like the engine of a car or whatever

The part of an OS that directly communicates with the hardware.

i know but asked merrucs permission on posting his updates on this so i guess its ok..havent found time asking viveks and terma yet tahts why i havent posted the update on their kernels...
i didnt really bother asking (dude bnothing personal being objective,youre a great guy )you since you already deleted your psot dunno why, but for everyones sake (goodthing i had a copy of some of your post)i am reposting them...

Another redundant thread.U can ask Marroc anything, he will give you.But what make you think this thread is necessary ?This will bring confusion,overlapping all around,Remember kernel is not a joke.You can't put all the technical details,the solutions of unstability better than the thread itself where the dev themselves are supporting. Dev doesnt like their app to be mirrored, look at Creed.You have your stickky thread, You know some rules,be matured.If you want this thread better not post any attachment or kernel mirrors.Ask MOD to close it.

[ROM] ICS system image from AT&T SGS 3 (SGH-I747) version 4.0.4

Here is the system image from MY SGS 3, I thought one of our other devs might want to turn this into a ROM. I would do it, but I am a little swamped at the moment with after hours android dev work.
If someone has not taken a stab at it by the time I am back in here more "permanently", I will make my attempt at porting it over. You will need to grab a script that they use for CM, to grab the files off of your phone, also here is a good reference on porting as well.

I might take it on (you know me, that means I will try and fail and leave it dead most likely), but how the hell will we even get it to boot without at least an ics kernel? will we just have to wait until we get the update?
EDIT: i assume the gs3 is GSM correct?

Try kexec, That is how the cyanogenmod team is "dual booting" for testing roms... who cares if it is just one proc for a test boot.... Once you can POC it with a 2.3.6 kernel, then you know you are on the right track, and can do a test flash. The only real issue you might have is that the source seems incomplete to me.
I know this because I tried to compile it and had all kinds of issues with missing pieces. I have successfully compiled two kernels that I am testing on my SGS 3 at the moment (one overclocked, the other under volted).
Just make sure you go and grab the arm-abi tool kit, this is the one I use, from
codesourcery:
http://www.mentor.com/embedded-software/codesourcery
All you need is the light version. It might take some work, but you may be able to merge the ICS kernel code (it is posted as a sticky higher up ^^^) with the MB/ME865 kernel to get what is missing. There are some how-tos out there to do it.
Yes the AT&T version is GSM(HSPA+)&LTE

Am I right that is SHOULD boot on a stock ICS kernel, like what came from that leak, if so, I can have someone that is running that test it out, and make sure the system is right, then I can build a kernel to run with kexec until we can get a real update.
I am new to porting and sort of to kernel building so tell me if this process sounds right for this.
1. fix up the gs3 system with our proprietary files -thats easy, I know how to do that
2. have someone that is running an ics kernel test it if possible
3. if that works it means I just need a stock ics kernel to run in kexec, which shouldn't be too hard because we should be able to use the me865 source and modify it to work with mb865. If it does not work, kernel building starts from scratch, which is were I will have to do some more research, and any help from you or others would be helpful.
My other question is how do we even load the new kernel with kexec? wouldn't we need this to boot first, then we can swap the kernel? Or is there a way to load up both at the same time?
I think I will set up a WIP thread for this if you don't mind. feel free to PM me if you don't want to post stuff here.
Thank you so much for all your help, and have fun with your new toy

Yeah I think that is a good start. Take a look at this link, the guys from team epic that do cyanogenmod ports have come up with a way to use kexec to test booting thier kernel and roms. You might PM one of them, I have not gotten to that point yet, plus these guys are working on the Sprint version, of the SGS3, but I am sure they can explain how they are doing this with kexec. These guys are on XDA, I have chatted with them on a couple issues I was having.
http://www.epiccm.org/
Oh, P.S.
Here is how to compile the "stock MB/ME865" kernel:
1. How to Build
- get Toolchain
From android git server , codesourcery and etc ..
- arm-eabi-4.4.3
- edit Makefile
edit "CROSS_COMPILE" to right toolchain path(You downloaded).
EX) CROSS_COMPILE= $(android platform directory you download)/android/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin/arm-eabi-
Ex) CROSS_COMPILE=/usr/local/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin/arm-eabi- // check the location of toolchain
$ export ARCH=arm
$ make m2_att_defconfig
$ make
2. Output files
- Kernel : arch/arm/boot/zImage
- module : drivers/*/*.ko
3. How to Clean
$ make clean
Just make sure the toolkit is pointed to the install of the codesourcery toolkit I linked in the above post.
P.P.S
Your defconfig might be another pointer name, that you will have to find out for sure. You know the one above called m2_att_defconfig.

For the beginners don't try the rom,you might kill your phone!

I'd like to give this a try as well . Thanks a lot for all the help!
If/when we get this to work, do you think a JB port won't be too far behind? How big are the differences between stock ICS and JB kernels?

Glad to see you back around here, but lets not even give anything towards JB until we get ICS. if you are interested in helping with that, send me a PM, I have made some progress with cm9 (as in it boots fine, and i have some ideas for the radio).

ICS to JB is going to be a much smaller kernel jump, but there will be a HUGE performance increase due to project butter which is now officially part of Jelly Bean.
The key to running something like this is to get a kernel compiled and running with kexec, even though it is just 1 proc, it is a good way to get started. Ports will be much easier if you do some merging of the changed code in newer kernels and do merged kernel. There are instructions for doing a kernel that is merged from 2 sources to get a complete kernel.
Now this will just work for testing and porting, and the actual ICS or JB install from at least a leak will be needed to actually run the port, but you can get ahead of the game by doing what I have mentioned.

Well going to give this a go in a few days doing some maintenance on my computer but will get back with something (hope not a bricked phone) .....
(off topic ranting)
Hate to say it at this rate what getting close to a year since Ics release Jb might just be a pipe dream..... Think I am growing grey hairs waiting for something to give here..... Without bootloader unlock I feel so useless (Yea I could make a recovery image with all the bells and whistles but I got bigger plans).....

[ROM]CM10-Pure v1 (31/7/2012}

Thanks to the encouragement of blindndumb, I've decided to personally make a cm10 rom too. This CM10 Rom also acts as my base for my PA.
So... Yea. As Usual,
Double Thanks for cnote74 for making the kernel too for me as my computer is the most old fashion one :-/
And also 0.0 for teaching me how to port
And also blindndumb for the camera patch
And also ...Awesome... for the amazing AwesomeBeatsv3
And also hdorius for supporting me all the way till now
And also ParanoidAndroid For even making this rom possible
(YES I LOVE THE 2 WORDS AND ALSO )
Flashing Instructions ( Very Important -> You must be on cm10 )
1. Make Sure You're On The Latest CWM Or 4EXT Recovery
2. Make A Backup
3. Wipe Cache and Dalvik
4. Flash ROM ×Still requesting permission before uploading×
5. Flash Gapps ×http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20120726-signed.zip×
6. Reboot and Enjoy
When will it be released?
It will be released as soon as i get the permissions from other dev and at the same time thanking blindndumb,hdorius and cnote74 for helping me through this difficult times and making it a big success

Multiple sensor vendors for the Camera exist. Just because it is an HTC phone does not mean you have an HTC camera(omnivision or Samsung) You need to know this stuff man:silly:

I can understand if people want to make there own roms. And i really appreciate it if they share the work with the community. But before you do this, you should learn something about how to do this stuff!

Sorry but I wont be going anywhere near anything you release and I use that term loosely. You appear to be jumping from one genuine developer's rom's to another trying to cobble up your own rom. Just reading your previous posts clearly shows your technical abilities are rather lacking.

Should maybe also add, non or unofficial CM10 rom as well to the title.
IDK

Stop me if i am wrong... But if you compiled CM10 from source then why do you have to wait for permission???? What CM10 rom are you using as a base then??? Jellytime is the only one i know of to boot and run with CM10, and we all know you will not get permission from Random

Guys,
I have already requested a mod take a look at this. I find it weird that his computer cannot compile a kernel but it can compile a rom. Even on my custom built with a 6 core AMD Phenom with 16 GB of RAM it takes about an hour to an hour and a half to compile from source. That would require at least 2 days time on his machine with a melted core. We will see if this is legit. Let the mods take care of this

Let me take a peek at this. He thanked people for compliling the kernel and then thanked multiple other people... so he took a bunch of other peoples work and crunched them into one... something seems alittle fishy is all I say. And yes its pretty clean on my part that he doesn't seem to know what he's doing. (Don't get me wrong I'm no where near being a dev but it just seems like he's trying to make himself popular for making one) idk.That's my input so ill just see where this goes. Goodluck

Thread Closed.
Placeholder threads for "coming soon" ROMs are not allowed. Neither are ROMs that use other peoples work without permission.
Note to OP, I you wish to use randomblame's kernel, compile it yourself, its not that hard and there is nothing in the GPL that prevents you from doing so.

Imoseyon BETA leanKernel TW (8/8 - v0.1, kexec)

I did not create "this" and I'm not taking credit for it. This is an awesome kernel created by an awesome dev. I have seen a lot of people asking about where to find this kernel so I asked the dev if I could make this thread to help everyone out over here. I do plan to keep this updated as he updates his OP over on Rootz.
LINK TO ORIGINAL POST ON ROOTZWIKI
This is a kexec Touchwiz test kernel. Use his thread to report bugs, etc.
WARNING: If you're on full stock, you must install busybox first.
DOWNLOAD
latest beta kernel: flashable zip
to return to stock kernel: flashable zip
INSTRUCTIONS
Make sure you're on a recovery that supports auto-flash (any CWM compatible recovery should work - I use v6.0.1.0).
Make sure your ROM has busybox installed properly (otherwise it will bootloop).
Download and flash the zip file in recovery (yup that's it).
Reboot (it will appear to boot twice after that and at every boot).
FEATURES
Unnecessary components removed for lean and fast kernel.
Compiled using latest Linaro compiler with additional optimizations.
Latest Linux updates applied (currently up to 3.0.39).
Ramdisk optimizations.
Kexec (credit goes to Mike Kasick, Austin Dicken, etc.)
OC'ed to 1.9Ghz (limited to 1.51Ghz at boot, use an app to change max freq)
SIO I/O scheduler default
Fast Charge (toggle via the "ffc" script - open terminal, type ffc then enter, plug in phone via USB)
On-demand governor backported from Linux 3.5
CHANGELOG (BETA)
v0.1 (b31fd85c46133f21d3e83d2a5c7d6f94) - initial beta release. Changes from test v12.2.
CHANGELOG (TEST KERNEL)
v10.4 - initial test release
v11.1 (0a169bbc58f7f5b14315f6e2dad47226) - leaner kernel, ondemand governor backported from Linux 3.5, latest interactive governor (not recommended yet)
v12 (8d31143328f19a6183ce6ed50d3f2f76) - fixed default max frequency (really set to 1.51ghz), custom boot animation support, init.d support, Linux 3.0.39 update
v12.2 (3640421cf043e4bdb88de3162c9984fa) - fixed blue LED issue at boot for some ROMs.
TODO
This is alpha/test kernel. More development will come.
Remember this is just a repost of his OP. To get support from the dev you will more than likely have to go over to Rootzwiki to get it. All of the links in this post redirect to the OP on Rootzwiki and not to download links. You will have to go to his OP to download the kernel.

How do I use USB Fast Charge?
1) Unplug from USB cable.
2) Open Terminal Emulator, type "ffc" (without quotes) and enter. This command will toggle your fast charge state.
3) Plug it back in.
Note: running the same command again will disable fast charge.
Also, when fast charge is enabled USB communication will be disabled.
Why KEXEC?
I actually had my own hybrid recovery/kernel method, which was kinda cool. No special kernel modification was necessary, simpler boot hijack, etc. But it did mean that recovery was modified and required flashing into recovery partition for every new version. Plus all the cool cats were using kexec.

I don't mean to be a jerk or step out of place, but ,there really isn't any development here since everything is centered at Rootz. I can certainly understand a DISCUSSION thread in General, but all the actual development is over at Rootzwiki. Why not create a discussion thread in General and allow Imo to make his own thread in development if he so chooses to do so?
That's my 2 cents. Mods feel free to nuke my thoughts here if you'd like.

I didn't want it to get lost in General and I asked him if he wanted me to make one or if he could make one over here for us and he told me to go ahead. I see where you are coming from though.
EDIT: If mods feel this should be elsewhere feel free to move it. I just figured this would be the best place to put it.

Yah i think it will be useful since half of the Rom threads are all about this kernal anyways there taking up way to many pages. There does need to be a seperate thread for it so good ups.

If you did not development nor can support it then it does not belong in Development

Does anyone know how to get the phone to charge while it's off on this kernel? My phone will just vibrate but won't charge while off.

I have never tried to charge with the phone off. Beta just released about 20 minutes ago. Try that and see if it fixes it.
EDIT: Might have found the answer over on Rootz.

thanks, trying the beta now

No problem. I have the beta on my phone and it seems really solid so far.

this has already been covered in my guide...i think having multiple guide threadz for each and every rom/kernel is silly and confusing. which is why i made a all in one guide that covers all develpment and tweaks...what not. part of the reason i link to the original dev threads so users can keep up on the lastest there but ask questions in my thread.

I didn't realize there was a link to Imos kernel anywhere except inside of ROM threads so I figured I would duplicate his post here so people here would see. There is a whole lot of people who posted in the Synergy thread that they didn't know where his kernel was or where to find it and things like that. I figured the easiest way would be to have a post on XDA devoted to his kernel. If we had a mega thread of all the root methods, tools, ROMs, kernels, and themes then that would probably be better than this to help people find anything they may need for their phone with very little effort.

I'm assuming this wont work on the cm10 nightlies?

Will kexec kernels still work with an unlocked bootloader

yes. in their current form your device will still boot like 3 times though. There will be no change. In the next few days devs will be unpacking their zips and removing the kexec process. Now they just need to copy over any modules and dd the kernel to mmcblk0p7. But yes, these kernels will still work fine right now.
When the devs repackage them, however, you will no longer have to bootloop 3 times before booting with your custom kernel. it will load on first boot everytime, until you dd the stock kernel back to mmcblk0p7

When I flash nothing happens?
I just put on the Psycho ROM on my i9300 today and wanted to test this kernel out to see what 1.9Ghz feels like. I downloaded both the experimental and stable build.
I flashed the experimental build first, but my Siyah kernel still showed up. So I tried it again, but to no avail. Same incident with the stable build.
I notice when it flashes it seems like less than a second... I downloaded the experimental build v1.7 a few days ago, and its stable build today.
Any ideas?

Nope. Imo says not to use the latest (October 27) release on anything newer than G1.

[Q] Multirom?

Could multirom be ported to OPO users?
Would be so awesome for 64gb version !
Cheers

You must ask Tassadar, multirom creator, who will confirm (or not) if hardware is compatible
IF it is, we will have to wait for a compatible kernel

Also interested in seeing a Multirom port.

Would be interested as well. So @Tasssadar, can you help here?
EDIT: Just did a quick read on the wiki... Looks like we should be able to port it ourselves. Maybe I'll look into it when I find some time. But everyone is invited to do so as well!
EDIT2: See here: https://github.com/Tasssadar/multirom/wiki/Porting-MultiROM

As in FAQ:
Will you port MultiROM to device X?
No, probably. I won't port MultiROM to any device I don't own, because it is very difficult to provide the level of support I want to provide if I can't test things myself, as proven by the Nexus 4 port. I'll probably keep buying Nexus devices and keep porting MultiROM to those myself, but I can't buy every single device - I'm still a student, all my existing devices were bought using some kind of money grant or donations from users.
But, you can port it yourself, the wiki should give you at least some idea how to do that: https://github.com/Tasssadar/multirom/wiki/Porting-MultiROM​tl;dr: get me the device or port and maintain it yourself.
I won't know how "hard" (what does that even mean?) it is to port MultiROM to X until I have the device in my hands, but it should be possible. I see you've already found the wiki, there's a bit of info about porting there. Kexec-hardboot patch will be the "hardest", since you need to know a bit about how linux boots on ARM devices. Or just blind guessing, that seems to work for some people too.

Thanks, luckily I know some things about this already. So shouldn't be that hard for me. Hardest thing will be to find time to actually do it. As this device don't have an sdcard, that part is already covered. I do however have to take a look at the ramdisk for that patch...

Well if I win one I'll give it to you. Its the least I could do for all the great work you do for the community!
Thanks Tasssadar!

lol, I was just about to post about this. From what I remember the Devs for each of the other kernels just have to add in the multirom code in to their kernel for multirom support. Pretty easy from what I heard. Otherwise I reached out to the dev for multirom today to see if this will be coming to OPO.

I already did this in the posts above... He won't support it himself, but we can port it ourselves. Looks not that hard.

I'd love to see MultiRom on the OnePlus One as well. If someone could port it, that would be amazing!

Well it would be simply great

I've almost finished MultiROM port to the OPO. Just a few framebuffer things to fix

Great! Thanks for your awesome help.

Ok, so MultiROM works, TWRP works, kexec works BUT the boot menu is not visible (it's working but it shows completely black) still framebuffer problems. I can set the main ROM from TWRP and it gets booted correctly. So the last thing to fix is just the boot menu. It's completely usuable anyway from the recovery

sorry for the noob questions, i am not "inside" the multirom project...
will the installed roms share the same data partition...so you can switch between roms keeping everything else is installed on device?

No, this is not possible atm (if it's the same as for N5)
But the main advantage of multirom is for me: testing ROMs without loosing your daily driver. If you like the new rom, install your stuff and swap it to primary

I confirm the data partition cannot be shared
@KINGbabasula :
You should already tell the kernel dev to include the k-exec boot patch, so we won't have to wait ages to have a compatible Kernel
@ak is very responsive for features requests

Sure. I tested mahdi and slim rom and they work perfectly sharing my kexec'd kernel. PA sadly still doesn't because they use cm11s kernel so I can't set shared kernel (in short it's impossible to use it until they merge kexec patch). Anyone who wants to merge it in their kernel it's here: https://github.com/KINGbabasula/and...mmit/3e93ccd23a37cc5fa3140fc935a43362a678de37 and to enable it add this in defconfig:
CONFIG_KEXEC=y
CONFIG_KEXEC_HARDBOOT=y
CONFIG_PROC_DEVICETREE=y
