[Request][port]Gecko OS[Firefox OS] - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey dudes, did you heard about the new operating system by Firefox? Well I did and I want to experiance it, if someone can port or give instructions please do it.
BTW I have heard that the Samsung Galaxy Gio is having a port although it is not yet released.

If Gio gets the port, we will easily get the port too!

It's not even beta yet. as soon as it is even released people can try. Also, its mostly ARMv7 thats supported/targetted

No, it can run on any android device, I saw it running on an HTC Wildfire(armv6).It can run even on iPhone(I think, i read it on a blog)

Eeeeh, the gio has a port being released soon
Sent from my GT-S5830 using Tapatalk 2

Once the system/kernel is ported for gio it should be quite stable since all the apps use web languages.
I will think about getting a 'boot to gecko' device when my contract runs out nnext year.
I really like Mozilla and would love to support them with their open 'web' os.

Gio already has it booting. But it's buggy...

And there's no apps asuch for it. Just HTML5 Web Apps.

The speccy stuff shouldnt be a matter of concern since the OS is designed for the lower(/mid)-end devices.

Gt540 =/= GT-S5830.
And the fact that other phones can doesn't mean we can too.
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium

Wish there was a way to port armv7 to armv6.
would have brought so manyy goodies to ace.
atleast an ics kernel like semaphore for ace.
i kno it's not possible..but one can always hope...

If galaxy y can, why cant we?

That´s not the same thing.
android 4.0 requires (AFAIK) ARMv7.
So, someone will have to port it, or you can use ICS theme by AChep

armv6 processor wont be a problem at all.ram will be.

You can enable swap by using a kernel(FXP, LinuxDX).

Galaxy Ace GT-S5830i??

Are all the roms in this forum also made for GT-S5830i?? Can anyone tell me the difference between GT-S5830 vs GT-S5830i? Which is better?
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
No.
Every rom/kernel/fix/mod etc for original s5830 wont work on s5830i as both got different hardware. Cpu, gpu is different.
So where can I get those things for GT-S5830i?
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
Theres a basic deodexed stock rom for s5830i with nice ics theme and stuff. Also I think theres clockworkmod recovery too, but no kernel yet.
Use the search button.
Could you give me the whole details about this phone?

There is only one rom for your device.
There is only one kernel available for your device.
S-5830 and S-5830i are different from each other.Infact,S-5830 is more similar to SGY rather than the SGA.

There is no other Jellybean ROM for Mini, you may create one from scratch.

CM7 Porters Needed from Galaxy Y

Hey,
In one of my recent posts there has been a lot of development on cm7 for galaxy y so if anybody wants to have a go at porting it :laugh::laugh:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1983491
You could try installing it then getting a random app from the market and change your screen's resolution to 160.
I think RubenStauttener tried that and it worked for him, with some bugs.

I once asked kasper_h for that, you need to recompile the kernel with changed values to 0 mA.
But I couldn't try it since my HD has not enough space.

A custom kernel for cm10 4.1.2 would be great.
Sent from my OptimusBlack using xda app-developers app
A echo command shouls be enough. Maybe someone with ICS can check, which file is being changed, when you switch leds from on to always off. It should be one value going from 1 to 0 or vice versa. Just check it out, try the same on cm10, since it uses the same drivers and enjoy. I cant test it, cause I dont have time and I am not using ICS.
