Guys,
Seems like there are lots of threads popping up with new 'packages'. I thought we should create a thread solely for the discussion of kernel hacks/patches so that we can separate the two:
For those of you who dont know, http://gitorious.org/linux-on-qualcomm-s-msm/linux-msm-xdadev is the repo were are working on.
Just to clarify, this topic is ONLY for discussion regarding Kernel patches. Thanks to vdelf's headset patch it seems sensible to focus on:
1. Backlight always on problem FIXED 01/05/10 (vdelf)
2. Battery Issue FIXED 11/05/10 (drlucky)
3. Camera
4. USB
5. GPS
Makes sense. Lets add USB to the list. While charging works, data transfer does not. Also USB might allow us to debug kernel/android on the x1 and that is what dev's always dream of
:suggestion: why not add the latest kernel as download in the 1st post if there is progress. So everyone know where to download the latest updates u ppl do

It will be great to do this, and stick it
@dexteral,
Anyone can checkout the kernel from the above repo I posted. To do what you require we would need to upload the Kernel everytime someone adds a patch...

Is data transfer even possible in haret? I mean how would system unmount sdcard if it's running from sdcard itself?
not fast data but normal will work
love it

Hi, Lets add fm-radio to the list
Great idea ... otherwise we are creating such a mess with lots of different kernel versions in different threads.
If anyone is interested in compiling the kernel as well as the wifi modules, I have setup a VMWare debian appliance containing all necessary tools and scripts to compile everything. Since this is a few hundes MB, I haven't got a place to upload ... need to check this first. If you are interested, let me know.
@drlucky
Have you had a chance to look at the backlight issue? I am almost out of ideas
Can you post your modifications on the microp-module and what you found out until now?

Sorry, haven't had the time. Could you push your changes to the git repo, I will try to have a look at it this week ...
okay i tried to make the kernel bt following the guide above by fatsal...
but i got stuck at
make htckovsky_defconfig ARCH=arm
htckovsky_defconfig doesn't exist (in the new repo anyway, i believe)
any help? which defconfig to use? :S

Just played with the klt-driver a bit. I always get version 0x0000, which on a hero means "bootloader mode". I have tried to migrate the hero code, but with no luck. It seems that the microp-klt needs a "reset", which shoudl be done by using a magical GPIO (on hero: 76), but this doesn't currently work at all. Kernel boots up, but still gets no valuable version number.
Sorry if this has been asked or posted, I tried doing a search but lots of hits..
Here goes:
Is there a howto for building a Nexus one rom from Android Open Source dot com?
I have seen these:
(cant post real links lame....)
But they basically tell you to pull from GIT and type make.
I have flipped over the Makefiles, but it would be handy if someone has a tut on building a nexus one specific point of view.
Again I apologize if this has been covered.
Cheers,
Check out the wiki at http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Building_from_source that will help you start to compile your own ROM. Also there is a build script floating around on the CyanogenMod Forums that you can use.
Thanks this is what I have been looking for! I have the build system building on my gentoo box ATM, I will check out this link and search for the build script.
I believe I found the build script in the Motorola Droid section of the CyanogenMod forums. Like 3 or 4 pages into it.

The CWM version in there is, I think, the latest version that doesn't bug out using this method. I have added some spacing to make things more clear. Thank you for the feedback.
all links appear broken....can you please help?!
Yeah, all links broken. Use mediafire instead please.
I tried everything in your list, but Google Apps still wouldn't show up...and yes, I went to settings accounts/sync...and the only option was for an exchange account. BUT...I DID FIX IT! 7.0.3 seemed to be a problem for some others also, so I ran 7.0.2 and it installed perfectly. Then, once I'd gotten everything up and running, I updated to the latest CM7 RC via RomManager and everything went smooth as butter. Thanks so much!!!
NOTE: If you do not know how to SBF or have problems SBFing please do not post about it here. This is a research thread
A while ago TreyM started development on MIUI4DX. Unfortunately he does not own a Droid X. And due to personal reasons he may not be returning to the scene for some time. If he was here I would ask to take over development, but because of the circumstances I've decided to head development. (If anyone has an issue with this please contact me.)
I'd use the other thread created by TreyM for this, but I feel due to this being very unstable and being in a place where there are other device developers, I may be able to get some more input. Also this is an older build of MIUI,
Here comes the hot stuff!
Instructions:
These are in update.zip form. Just install as a zip through ClockworkMod
To grab a logcat you must have the ADB. Open a terminal (Command Prompt) and input the following:
Code:
adb devices
adb -d logcat > MIUI4DX-logcat.txt
I also need dmesg output.
Code:
adb devices
adb shell
dmesg
Go to pastebin.com and post a link to logcats and dmesg output here.
Test builds, and changelogs.
Here is test #9. It is basically the Defy MIUI ported to the Droid X
http://tetradsoftware.com/android/i...ile=miuiandroid_DroidX-1.7.10_pre-alpha-9.zip
Does not get to the bootanimation
LOGCAT: http://pastebin.com/SLy6TSqh
DMESG: http://pastebin.com/kc4N34cy
This is test #10. It's basicly the Defy apps, and framework-res.apk forted to CM7:
http://tetradsoftware.com/android/index.php?dir=DroidX/MIUI4DX/&file=MIUI-Alpha-10.zip
This actually gets to the bootanimation
LOGCAT: http://logcat.miui.us/285002
DMESG: http://pastebin.com/0wAFVXKs
Please, please, please look over the logcats, and dmesg for both of them. I can't decided which to go from.
Follow me on Twitter @ghostlypickel
are we suppose to just install one of the given zip's or do we have to use the commands first. Some detailed instructions would be extremely helpful

Install then run the commands. The test logs and changelogs are at the bottom for organizational reasons, since it's being constantly updated.
Downloading now flashing and logging when I arrive home in about an hour or so.
Just flashed the new miui port for the nook color. Wip but great Tom nonetheless.

OP updated with important info. Please look at BOTH builds logcats/dmesg. I cannot decide which to go from.

THANKS for the heads up...
Guess I know what I'll be doing this weekend.
!-)
sweet! i will have to try this tomorrow but definitely keeping an eye out on this thread
Hello,
I don't want to ask how to build ROM.
I am new to building and compiling. I followed tutorial here on xda.
I installed everything crucial, then I do "repo init" ( repo init -u https://github.com/P880-dev/android.git -b cm-11.0) and then "repo sync". Source has downloaded. Then I do "source \envsetup.sh", "lunch", chose 11 as cm_p880-userdebug and at last "make -j6 otapackage". Now I have a question: I am compiling it for like 6 hours and in "home\username\android\out\project\p880" is around 12 GB of data, is that good?
Sent from my LG-P880 using Tapatalk
yep that is good.. every next time would be faster..
how long ? depends on processor and ram
@gerciolisz
Oh, forgot my specs:
Asus laptop
Core i5 3120m
6 GB ram
in virtualbox:
3 cores
2,5 gb
60 gb disk
And run make -j6
whoah it can be a long day to you i have ubuntu in dualboot with windows i5 and 12gb ram and it took about 4 hours
I am more concerned about that I have only 6 gb of disk available. But I think it is on the end of process. It is worth if waiting
Compiling done First compiling successed Tomorrow time for testing.
Just 2.3 GB of storage left
Do I need to manually now run ccache=1 (or sth like that - to not compile everytime everything) or is good if it is already in file somewhere in repos configuration?
You have to initialize ccache before compilation, that way it can cache the code when you first compile it. Check here.

Just like Adam said.. But anyway it needs more space to cache..

I will expand disk. I added first two lines in bashrc. But I didn't run prebuilts/misc/linux-x86/ccache/ccache -M 50G. It is good if I do it now?

You can, but won't have effect now as you already compiled.

Today I built my new build from scratch in 2 hours and half. I made dualboot and run make -j12 otapackage. Mean while I was able to surf the web :laugh:.
Hi!
Perhaps this thread actually can be some kind of a tutorial on how to build CM11 for P880, if you succeded?
I have followed this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2515305
Except i did some mistakes, so i simply did a fresh Ubuntu reinstall on a SSD-disk so it hopefully also will build faster..
I have some questions though:
- Don't we need to insert the code into the local_manifest.xml?
- Also, i see you don't compile it using "brunch p880" command.. Is there a reason for this?

make -j12 with 3 core inside virtualbox? seems pointless 3-4 would be sufficient. also try schedtool and see if it's faster. (install schedtool, then use schedtool -B -e make -j4 otaimage)

You didn't read well, I made dualboot with windows. I don't know how is it possible to run -j12 and no lag. (I was also able to surf the web). can be installed with apt-get? does otaimage produce .img file?

just follow the instructions from the thread until creating the working directory, for initializing repo, use the one from laufersteppenwolf's thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2551006).
repo init -u https://github.com/P880-dev/android.git -b cm-11.0the next steps are the same.
repo sync
cd vendor/cm/
. get-prebuilts
and other steps. i'm lazy to retype everything if you are really willing to build android from source, you should be able to figure out what i'm saying

there's no point of using numbers higher than the amount your cpu cores. -j5 or -j6 is fine for quad core cpu, any higher, it doesn't effect anything, just pointless. sudo apt-get install schedtool should work, but again, i have no idea how much difference it will make. otaimage will produce a zip file. you can also use make bacon. make bacon will produce a zip with the proper naming, and more, i guess, idk.
