Compatible cifs.ko

Can some one compile or point me to a cifs.ko that is compatible with the incredible. The ones I can find do not seem to be. Thanks in advance.

Interesting
http://linux.die.net/man/8/mount.cifs Not that I can help but if anyone wanted a quick reference.

Alot of the roms for other phones have it but its not compatible with out kernel. Is there a guide how to compile kernels? I made a couple in linux that worked. long ago..

here ya go...what app are you using to browse CIFS shares? I haven't tested this module, but just compiled it now.

Forgive me as I haven't actually tried this, but here is the 10,000 foot view:
At a minimum, you will need a linux system, with a gcc-arm cross compiler set up. I believe the android-sdk provides one. The version used by current kernels is gcc-4.4.4.
Then you will need the sources of the kernel you are running. The hydra kernel git tree is here: http://github.com/ejhart/Hydra-kernels.git , and the stock kernel sources are here: http://member.america.htc.com/download/RomCode/Source_and_Binaries/incrediblec_cc1c2268.tar.bz2
The hydra git tree doesn't seem to have a a working .config included, but this isn't so important if you are only building and installing kernel modules. From there, you'll need to configure the kernel in cross compiler mode, add the modules you want, and you will need to make sure the version magic string is identical to the kernel you are using. From there run make, and once the compile is finished, find the .ko 's you want, and push them to the /system/modules folder where you can insmod them.
Edit: You can use the .config from /proc/config.gz, didn't see it in there before.

I got one from another user but thanks do you still want me to try it? I mounted my share in a directory on the SDCARD so i can browse it with any file manager. I think any app that scans the sd card will also scan my server with about 8TB so that is a minor issue.

kernel compile guide
A guide for compiling kernels can be found here :
http://code.google.com/p/android-serialport-api/wiki/Htc
I not a techie and a newbie at any android development.
Since the guide is more or less a a set of instructions with no theory.
Got it to run, but not sure what I was doing.
Any assistance in provide either cifs.ko for the HTC Aria w/ kernel version :
liberty-2.6.29-21f066a6 or instructions on how to compile the module would be greatly
appreciated.
BTW - there an app on the store for automating the CIFS mount (CIFSManager

Could you please post the cifs.ko file that you have that works. Thanks.

Note that the post you quote was from before the 2.2 OTA, and hence that cifs.ko would be incompatible with the current kernel.

Thanks for pointing that out. So does anyone have a compatible cifs.ko for the current DINC kernel?

[Q] CM Framework compiled

Hi, first of all I hope this is the right place for this if not please close/move and tell me the right place to ask.
I am planning to improve the CM-FM app for our N1s, it works but there is a lot of room for improvement (named stations, autosearch, overriding national limits...).
The problem is that I am working on a Windows machine and the FM app needs the modified CM framework classes to compile, it seems there is no option to compile the full CM distribution under Windows.
But it shouldn't be too difficult given the CM framework compiled to use it with android-SDK and eclipse to build just the app.
So I ask here if someone can provide me the compiled classes.
It would be great to have them published with the nightlies, but as I don't think there would be a lot of changes in this part probably I can work with an outdated version for some time.

Why don't you use a virtual machine with Linux for this?

Of course that's a last resource but surely there are people out there that can provide this classes from their last compilations without problems and maybe this can help other developers also.

You'd probably want to be able to compile CM anyway so just installing Ubuntu 64bit in Virtualbox will work fine and is free. Make sure to enable Hardware Virtualization in your BIOS if your CPU supports it.

I do want to compile CM just the radio app, otherwise I would have installed a linux.

Why so stubborn? It literally takes less than a few hours to install, download sources, and compile your classes. Instead, you'd rather post here, and sit in waiting for who-knows-how-long to get an answer?
Not flaming, just trying to follow your thought process...

Compiling only selected system apps in Eclipse - how?

Hi,
I have successfully set up FRG83 and Cyanogen repositories, I've compiled the whole ROM, and I've compiled specific apps (make Gallery3D, for example).
Now I'm trying to start working with Eclipse. I've installed it and imported Cyanogen repo into it as a project - worked fine. The problem is - what if I want to compile a single package from it, say, Calendar app only? What is the equivalent of "make Calendar" in Eclipse, and is there any?
Thanks.

Bump. I don't believe no developers pass around here..

Don't believe many people in here know as much as you... xD
I know you shouldn't post questions in the dev section, but it may be a better option?

Unfortunately there are still plenty of internal-only API calls in the AOSP system apps. This means that many of them will not compile using the SDK.

So the right way to work with them would be editing in Eclipse and building in command line, like I did. Oh well... Thanks

[DEVS] You too can build a CM-based AOSP ROM

Obviously, I am going to be cleaning up some bugs with the CM7 build...
But, for those of you who might be inclined to develop a CM-based AOSP ROM, feel free to check out my github source to see what's involved:
https://github.com/Hashcode
Or you can:
repo init -u https://[email protected]/Hashcode/cm4D3.git
repo sync
To pull the entire set of android files that I use for compiling the current build.
Please note that the Board Config is currently setup to generate Safestrap .zip files.

Great job
Thank you for everything you have done for the droid 3!

Is there a kitchen for DROID 3 roms. Running windows 7
Sent from my DROID3 using xda premium

You need to be running Linux to do this hardcore kind of stuff.

Like Ubuntu I had it set up in VB and detain. Was just wondering if there was some thing for Motorola roms out there. I have had HTC phones this my first moto with android on it.

I'm starting to tinker with building (learning, actually) ROMs. I'm running Linux Mint Debian - has there been a kitchen built for D3?

That should be
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/Hashcode/cm4D3.git -b gingerbread
or whatever URL you want to use from the access URL box at https://github.com/Hashcode/cm4D3.
And of course "gingerbread" could be "ics" if your excitement about being on the bleeding edge overrides what should be a fairly sensible fear reaction to the term "bleeding edge".
@Hashcode: You don't use your own ALSA repos? (Comparing with my own generated manifest for your project...)
Also, are you planning on pulling newer Gingerbread manifest changes into your tree? I noticed CyanogenMod have gained a u8150 device tree, and I happen to have one of those, but your manifest doesn't list it...
Ooops. I have a u8510. >_< But the question stands...

Thank you for pointing out that my repo init line was wrong. I fixed it for those that were having issues.
Also, for those watching my manifest for ICS, I'm getting an error when syncing:
error: revision refs/heads/master in manifests not found
I'm trying to fix that. Correction: Fixed it and double-checked with a repo sync.
Some quick answers:
- I tried to customize the alsa source to fix some of the audio issues. But it ended up being a bit more complex than just changing ALSA. Motorola added a layer into the audio system for handling HDMI audio and in call audio volume.
When you build stock AOSP Gingerbread using the alsa drivers, the libaudio.so file ends up being all of the ALSA calls. If you examine the libaudio from the D3, you'll see that it is nothing of the sort. It's the customized mixer lib for RDS voice and HDMI audio. There's another lib from the phone: libaudio_ext.so which ends up being the alsa calls.
All of which made customizing just the alsa code risky at best as the further away from the version of alsa that was used on the phone, the less likely that the custom libaudio would work.
I probably still have the unfinished hardware_alsa git out on github, but it's not active in the current build.
- I can occasionally check for updates to the CM7 manifest and add them, or if you fork the manifest and add it in there that works as well.
Side Note: I may need to pick your brain on an EGL 0x0500 erorr I'm getting in the ICS code. I'm fairly certain it's an enum value that our version of the PowerVR drivers aren't set to handle, but I'd like to confirm that for my troubleshooting. And it seems that you might have some knowledge in that area

Where/how does someone begin working on building a ROM once they've downloaded these files? I'd rather dive into code and learn Android rather than using a menu driven wizard. Is there a tutorial somewhere? What tools are needed?

Some, but probably not enough. I'm happy to look, but I'm actually moving internationally tomorrow so I may not have 'net access for a week or so. >_< (That's why I've been trying so hard to get backup working. ^_^)
Once I'm settled in I will probably use fdisk to repartition my device or have a poke at hacking sd-ext support into safestrap, so I can start playing with custom ROMs.
Did you see my safestrap-ME863 nandroid patch in the Safestrap thread, BTW? It's got a couple of TODOs, but seems safe and roughly correct to me. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19683372&postcount=249
It could also form the basis for detecting when /preinstall can't be used as safe-system although I didn't look to see if there's already code to do that.

Does anyone know of a site where I can peek at reference code for random things (Apps, Kernal etc.)? It'll make it easier to understand how the code works. I haven't look at any code yet so I don't even know what language apps and the os are programmed in. (Java, C, C++, Ruby)

Just pull down the repo as Hashcode describes in this thread - you'll have all of the Android source. To the best of my knowledge, it comprises of mostly C, C++, and Java, but there is probably a smathering of some other things like ASM, perl, BASH, etc.
And to those who are asking if there is a kitchen, there is, it's called make

[Q] [QUESTION] Building dt.img

Hi.
I've had nothing but trouble trying to figure this one out. Information is quite lacking, and no amount of thread searching or google searching is helping me.
I've previously had my DU rom build working fine, until I had to reinstall Linux that is. Since that point, I can build the complete rom, but kernel gen always hangs on building the dt.img.
Mostly, and only, because the build doesn't seem to actually build the DTB files? Are these supposed to be generated by the build environment?
For now I've just pulled the DTBs from the Sony git, and copied them to the "out" dir in the relevant place. But it would be nice to figure what I've done wrong.
Cheers!

I think that's got it. How in the world I missed that, I'll never know.
Thanks for your help, it's much appreciated.
