wow, that would be amazing
I'm now looking for someone who would help me with reversing Android Market app and rewriting part of it into C# or VB.NET because guy from Androlib.com declined to help and I need to get some connection to Market (app informations)
First of all, great server to upload it too
And the program itself is great. That's what I call user-friendly. Although mostly, nothing works right not, the UI is as straighforward as they come. Neat and organized, not to mention extremely smooth. I like it. Would very well like to try the beta out.
Yeah, we want UI to be as user friendly as possible.
this looks real nice, would be wonderful if you and camalot (creator of droid explore) both worked on something like this together, one doin mostly code and the other GUI. That would be amazing
I'm working mostly on code and my friend Jam3es is creating GUI
You can contact Saurik @ [email protected].
He is the guy responsible for Cydia on jailbroken iPhones.
He also runs cyrket.com, an on-line view tool for the Android Market.
The guy is friendly and open source and freedom advocate, so he would most probably help
I've already wrote him twice but no reply at all
bugs
the setup button doesnt do anything and it says that my phone was connected when it really wasnt
That's not bugs! It's not fully working version, but only "first-view" version that's only because we want to know how you like UI. If you want to see private alpha in action, check out youtube video in first post
Willing to beta test
I've been waiting for an app like this to come along forever. This is exactly what we need for our phones! It takes the hassle out of having JUST one mistyped letter in a long string of adb or console commands. If you're looking for testers, I'm willing to be a guinnea pig, and I'll help any way I can. Cot really able to program or anything, but I'll give you detailed bug reports, and anything else that will help with the evolution of this awesome app!
Would be cool if you could type sms and make phone calls with it.
This would be so perfect man !
Loves it, keep up the good work !
i couldnt get the .exe file running
i get
application failed to initialize,blahblahblah,click OK to terminate.
i couldnt remember what it said for the blahblahblah part >_<
That's because you dont have .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 that is requiered to get app running. There will be Lite version, developed in .NET 2.0 that will be ported over Mac and Linux too

No OS X version eh?
No reason this can't install the Goog apps we'll be pulling from our stock ROMs, right?
Hey recentrly i made the " b6gsix gude for noobs: how to theme a rom " and one reply from a guy said SO YOU ARE TRYING TO MAKE A COMMUNITY ROM ?
i wasnt but thats sounds nice. ive seen one community rom b4 and i like the concept but im no dev lol so how do i go about doing so?
You don't. Don't hop right into making a ROM. You need to at least know how to program it. Let me quote something cyanogen said:
Here's my advice for those looking to make their own Android ROMs.. Stop. Write an app or two first, learn how the system works from a developer standpoint. Learn some Java. Read the developer documentation. Learn how to use Git. Then learn how to build AOSP from source. Read the porting guides, and learn how the build system works (the links below have almost everything you could possibly want to know). Now try to put your new found skills to work on enhancing the platform by writing code or making theme overlays. And share! And put that **** on your resume. There is a *ton* of information out there but any kind of "step-by-step rom cooking guide" is going to be a complete fail- it's too broad of a subject.
Android Developer Guides: http://d.android.com
Working with AOSP source: http://source.android.com
Platform Developer Guide: http://pdk.android.com
Android Gitweb: http://android.git.kernel.org

The PDK site is absolutely vital if you are going to work on custom ROMs. Read every single page. Twice. Some of the info isn't up to date, but you'll get a really good idea about what goes into actually configuring Android to work on a real device.

I'm seeing you're having problems themeing. Understandable - you're new. However, if you can't even theme, you need to just take it slow. Master Android deving little by little until you can write an app - as useful one at that - and can write it well.
As for starting a community ROM - I don't think many people will just hop on it with you if you yourself can't even program the ROM.
Has anybody heard if perhaps we could see something from unrevoked?
I love ROM MRG, use it on several of my phones.
Would love to have it on this thing too.

If anybody is up for the challenge, they can compile Clockwork recovery for the Galaxy Tab by following these steps:
*EDIT* - seeing as how I'm not permitted to post links yet, you can find the steps by simply Googling 'porting clockwork recovery'
It's written by Koush on his website.
I don't think the SGT uses MTD though, so you'll have to use dd to dump the boot image.
I'm not up for that. I would happily do it with some help, but not on my own.
I know there are plenty of people here capable of doing this much quicker than I would. Considering I would be learning as I go.
I'm pretty good at figuring things out, but I don't have a build environment set up and really would only use it for this.
No takers?
D
Yeah,there are plenty of people capable, but weneed to wait for them to get a Tab :/

I'm happy to supply whatever is needed off mine. For some reason (maybe that I play too much) I never feel safe without a NAND backup.
What I needed to start this I am willing to help. I got the TMobile Samsung Galaxy Tab?

So does Clockwork Recovery have a lower level recovery than Titanium Backup? I am just curious because I am new to all of this and am looking for a backup solution myself.
Looking through Titanium Backup help files, it seems that you are left on your own with recovering the ROM. The ROM MRG function you mention seems it would take care of even that.
Thanks for any further light you can shed on this topic for me

I was looking into building clockwork,
But my ubuntu is being stupid and will not install java-5jdk
It will only install java6 and java 6 is incompatible.
I will look into this a little bit more.

I built the entire Android Open Source Project (AOSP Git/Repo code from the master Froyo 2.2 branch) on Ubuntu 32bits from inside a virtual machine running on Mac OS X 64 bits, using Open-JDK/SDK Java6 (v1.6). The official Android documentation says it's impossible, but there's a workaround, maybe that can help:
./core/main.mk
=> comment the "error" statement that makes the build fail when testing for: ifneq (64,$(findstring 64,$(build_arch)))
./external/clearsilver/cgi/Android.mk
./external/clearsilver/java-jni/Android.mk
./external/clearsilver/util/Android.mk
./external/clearsilver/cs/Android.mk
=> change from 64 to 32 in "LOCAL_CFLAGS += -m64" and "LOCAL_LDFLAGS += -m64"
Easy
That looks like a fix for 64-bit to 32-bit.
I have build AOKP ICS for the P4-WiFi and have edited the ram-disk in order to include the core Linux files, and I am currently working on installing Lua, Perl, and Hamachi, and making a CWM flash-able zip.
I will not hold your hand! This is not this hard.
This is not perfect, it may need some tinkering with to make it work!
If this bricks your tablet, I am not responsible, but I will attempt to help you fix it.

Sorry about complicated installation instructions, I am working on simplifying them.
Hi man.
please tell us what is this exactly?is it an Ubuntu OS or sort of?
Question:in the "/downloads/" directory there's a build named "Latest-Build-EXPERIMENTAL.zip ".is it a flashable zip?
The only difference between Ubuntu or any other distribution are the repositories and the name. This was made of Ubuntu Lucid and the zip doesn't work yet.
interesting... keep it up!
Thanks, I want to get Hamachi working but the place they had the working build is gone.
Has anyone gotten it to work yet?
I've a GT-P7500 and will try it...Hate ADSL speed...
I don't n to be needly or pushy or anything, but can the OP, or anyone running the ROM, make a video showing the Native Linux app capability? I know it would have to be compiled for ARM and It's been hard finding ARM apps for Ubuntu, for example, but you can show me something cool then I'll love you all forever.
Does this have any package management included? How is this better than using chroot? In my experience for the things I want to do chroot is not bad other than the fact that I want an external keyboard (to program in emacs), but if this is faster somehow that could be nice. But I'd rather have the package repositories of Ubuntu over speed personally.
Waiting anxiously for a vid or a better explanation of it's use...Keep it man!!!
Perhaps if you compress it I can download...it's sooo big and my internet speed is 0.7mbps
It is better than chroot because it does not require a lot of the core Linux capabilities to run in two instances as in a chroot, so it is approximately twice as fast, and I am working on a package management app, but I cannot just use the Ubuntu repositories because I have to rebuild the applications for the specific hardware, but I am working on a package management app, but I am just learning Java.

but I think the Original System is 4.4.2 and Emui 2
I want to ask What can I do to Root or make a ROM (Sorry I really dont know he defrance total newbie ) , but I dont want to lose the support of Google or the Google Market , what should I do , can anyone help me in that ???
give me details and tell me what to do
thanks

Really ???? Why ?? Huawei is too slow in making the Updates , all now is Andoird 5 and P7 is stuck in 4.4.2
It's proberly better staying on 4.4.2 than on lolipop. Many bugs on lolipop.

Wow do you realize android 5 has been out officially for a week or two and pretty much every phone apart from nexus which uses the software directly from Google themselves who make android, still don't run it yet and expect to be running it in 2015.
Not even big teams that use the aosp code directly such as cyanogen or paranoid have got a stable fully functional rom out yet.
It takes time for the 3rd party developers to customize and test android for there devices once the official version gets released as they all use the final source code which only has been out 3-4 weeks.
Also no company apart from Google is much better, Samsung are still rolling out 4.4 to some of there devices with some like the s2 still on 4.2 and end of life presumably others will jump straight to lollipop from 4.3 etc.
Also on rooting what do you wish to achieve by doing so?
Rooting can be very dangerous if you don't know what your doing with devices like ours.
Take a look for example at all the posts in this forum asking to downgrade their l10's from emui 3 to 2 which they upgraded to custom versions etc without thinking and the issues they now have with boot loops and stuff.
If you want to run xposed you can find many people with similar things recently in this forum that can't get it to work.
Also rooting etc you lose the ability for any future updates via OTA and recovery and would need to manually update your device potentially bricking it every single time which bricking means you can no longer use your device and have to buy a new one.
Also are you capible on the PC with using it, command prompt Linux shell etc and doing things like installing Windows and other things.
If not then rooting is not for you.
Also do you know how to code in Linux C etc and know the workings of the Linux os, if not then there is no way you are going to make a custom rom. All you might be able to achieve is just repackaging someone else's ROM with minor edits and even then the tools to do that mainly use Linux to run as it's native windows doesn't have all the stuff Linux has natively in this regard.

Thanks For your Valuable words,
I really enjoyed them and get my mind open
well I do have Good Experience in linux and Command line , C Programming actually didnt go deep with it really ,
But i think I will stick to your opinion and wait ,and while I do so I will learn more about the whole subject ,and maybe increase my knowledge in this Field . (Android Programming - the C Programming - how things work in Android , ROMS , ETC)
but would you mind telling me from where to start ???

Apologies if I came across about abit hard this forum has had allot of impatient people jumping in recently trying to run Emui 3 on l10's then asking to downgrade as you may have noticed the other teams like paranoid are already dealing with lots of people saying there to slow for not having lollipop out within a hour of aosp.
I had the same issue running a custom Minecraft server that people got really angry then refused to play and bad mouth the server if we didn't update that day when update time for us was about a week given the number of customizations we had 41 plugin's in the end, sometimes longer if there were more changes the mod and custom server devs had to deal with.
Emui 3 and lollipop has more bugs more as it's new from what I found I may start a proper consolidated emui talk thread later for those running it opposed to all the l10 when are we getting it out help me downgrade threads.
The place I think you should start is to download the source code for your version from the emui webpage and start analyzing it out of interest.
There's another Dev on here doing the same thing so you might want to contact him for info.
Also there are tools on Linux that easily let you unpack stock image files and the ext container and repack them.
That way you can see the full file structure and how a rom is packaged.
It's good just to see what's inside roms and how the first roms are usually made by a repackage before source.
I will stress the same as above that while these are starting points you would need to know what you are doing and something more hackable like a cheap nexus or or Chinese tab (about $50 USD) with easy upgradable firmware something would be better to start on.
Also grab down the android tools with eclypse for Linux, the sdk virtual device and have a play around making a app and stuff also you can edit the virtual rom safely etc.
The Linux version of the tools is far superior as you can natively mount the virtual ext cards for host file transfer and do other things which you can't under windows.
By ext above I mean the virtual partition files which are either ext 3 or 4 last time I looked.
I'm not a coder myself and I only did basic stuff in the past as I had a Chinese android 2.2 tablet the MID ones as my first device, I used a custom rom on which was just a repack with file system changes with bloat removed etc.
I looked into this out of interest and curiosity, each rom update I repacked it with the apps I used so I didn't need to reinstall them, there was probably a better (proper) way than just unpacking the ext file system from the img adding my apps in to the deploy folder and repacking.
Also I unpacked a APK weather app etc to make changes and use a custom background and others like themes to grab icons and assets this is a good start with looking at app packages and how that all works as well as making your own app in various tools eclipse for one which is the official tool but there's hundreds of android programming softwares online even to do simple stuff as make a stand alone html5 app from a webpage.
The tools on Windows I found were lacking and harder to find for the rom stuff, with Linux it was built into the system a lot of things.
What Linux is the best for doing Android stuff I don't know so that will need to be researched.
As mentioned devices can be dangerous for custom stuff especially newer ones with bootloader security, the older Chinese style ones and some others you could reflash easily from sdcard with a update.img file as they didn't contain that lock out security on boot and debugging.
I nearly bricked a few devices in the past, once having to rely on the bootloader and Android Commander a powerful tool and device terminal to mount the partition rw while in the bootloader to rename a file backI renamed as a test that caused the system to stop booting.
You can still get some tabs that do that about 50 USD on eBay etc I think.

I'd strongly advise that you wait. My experience. You can root v4.4.2 VERY easily using vroot. Wait for lollipop, honestly. Is a nightmare recovering your position if you try to move now.
