Firefox OS for Galaxy s Advance - Galaxy S Advance I9070 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
I found in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1805282
A description of how CWM recovery may be out of the Galaxy Nexus works on Firefox OS.
Do you think this solution would work for Galaxy S Advance is, or even the OS provided around the zip in there from Advance? :highfive:

I want to borrow your thread @papi54 .
I want to make a request for making ROMs.
Yeah, there are many ROMs now available for our lovely device . But as we know these ROMs are just derivatives of cm and aosp with some features added( except miui having whole new concept) .
So I would love to have/ make a request to any developer if he want to do it rather than these Derived Roms and make another ROMs ( with whole different concept) like firefox OS , Ubuntu touch , Jolla sailfish OS etc.
Thanx in advance.

port roms
It's true!
were carrying would be very good or better jolla os firefox I love you!
roms that are carrying and building are very good but as you say all would AOSP or cm with added
I wish I could have jolla

Just look at "not working" part...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2372850
NOT working:
- GPS
- WiFI
- Camera
- Back and Menu Buttons (and probably will be never works, in Firefox OS is just Home Button)
- FM Radio
- System Updates

I am sure that porting of those is not easy at all... Those new ROMs based on KITKAT CM are relatively easy to do, using our CM source + using sources of that ROM and compiling. I am not saying it is easy, but porting some other OS is hard. First look at other phones threads about them. :fingers-crossed:

cm9 ?? :/

where is cm9 ? i ony see aosp v4.0.3 :/
Huh?
CyanogenMod actually IS AOSP with, well, CyanogenMod specific additions/alterations and device specific ports.
i know but cyanogenmod is beter
aosp is base for all modS for android
So what are you trying to say n1k0? Hmm maybe you should check out CM website, because they post updates there.
One thing:
WHEN IT IS NOT RELEASE YET, IT MEANS ITS NOT READY YET.
Maybe you can tell me the vice versa?

In what hindsight? Just because of the ROM Manager (over which I would prefer CWM anytime)?
If the ongoing effort to port ICS to the X8 is based on the vanilla AOSP ICS source tree I think it shouldn't make much of a difference. I can't think of any "killer feature" CM9 contains that might be amiss.
In all honesty, the devs working on the X8 port will have to cut out a whole lot of functionality to make it fit into the little RAM of the X8 and to make it somewhat usable (in terms of speed). If you look at the intended target devices / hardware recommendations of ICS the X8 (and phones having a similar hardware spec) is clearly not that suited to run it.
Anyway, I don't really care if it will be a AOSP based build or a CM9 based build as the only thing that really counts is to make it fit to the hardware of the X8 - and that's the hardest part to make everything work as neither AOSP nor CM9 contain fitting camera libs or sound libs, for a start.
Hi! I just want to know,whether the ICS ported to our phones still have DSP Manager? I love that very much...

muisc fx is like dsp manager but stil bagly :/

How do I make DSP manager run on CM9 ICS v4.0.3? I'm using nAa kernel btw.

Motorola Triumph >< Huawei X6 n friends

Hello guys
Based on my investigation several time ago,,I was look up some ROM and development for Triumph n X6 from several forums
For now,,development of Moto Triumph stepping far from Huawei X6,,I was looked some new update ROM especially ICS ROM
I want asking to someone who know about development
What different Triumph from X6?just CDMA >< GSM or more??Is Motorola have individual brand build?
Is possible to get flash ROM based from Triumph??
I'm asking because I found Triumph have AOKP ICS developers
Since edowar who develop AOSP ICS gone,,X6 device development for AOSP ICS stuck at alpha5,,
Sorry if I like blaming or flaming developers,,but I just want to know if X6 can use Triumph ROM or not

I don't agree with you. Triumph not stepping far from X6. Both features have the same progress, even triumph camera capturing still not work on ICS while ours already work.
Some devs... Tj and ardX still in progress for AOSP ICS for our device, we also have a step forward for camera. Zuk also available to port it, and I think he will definitely port it to any other rom for this ICS. But be patient, they're working on it. They work to make camera work perfect with video and not interfere with wifi functionality also. After that, here... will be more ICS roms port and mod... Zuk, elol and other porter will get additional spirit to port and may be me also .
X6 can use Triumph rom, but it will not get the signal and may be you can't use touch screen also. Need some touch to port it, but then the features still lack of camera. Camera is a must for me and for some of us. I can't use ICS if camera not work.

whatabout u8800? zuk has some roms from there as well. and u8800 has ICS based on u8860 (huawei honor).
huawei honor's chipset is MSM8255T, mi410 is MSM8255. I've posted the link to the files, but the firmware is only in .app file.. no idea how to extract or turn it into .nb0 to extract the libs and stuff..

The features here meant for hardware related with the kernel. Any port need specific kernel to those device it self, including ours. Ofcourse we can use some library from identic device hardware, but kernel drive them.

so does this mean to get a working ICS rom lets say aurora ICS which is derived from U8860, we need to rebuild our kernel that will function on our devices? because kernels are device specific right?
if that's the case how do people port across different OS ie SE mini pro running eclair with an unofficial GB port? is it because the kernel remains the same?

Correct me if I'm wrong....
Kernel need to build to work on specific device and specific android version, what ever kernel version is, that's so far what I know. Some drivers integrated in kernel, one of them is touch driver which related with touch panel hardware type.
To port rom from another device, we "just" pull the framework of the source rom and push it to the our android version which the framework will work. Of course with some additional "touch" to make it perfect.
To develop a rom from another device, not just port but we have to customize (made change and build from source) our device kernel to work with a destination android version. Also build from source for some libraries and drivers because of related things.
What things should be customize in kernel or libraries... well... I'm not a dev.
Owh I'm sorry mate,,actually I just looking for development team for Motorola,,they have development team focus on ICS build
Sorry if I mistake because I don't know much about this,,our device have many developers to port/make ROM and modified something
But so far I looked,,our device doesn't have development team like Triumph,,sorry if I wrong
I just want to know,how much important development team works/personal developer for ROM build
Cz I think it would be better if our device have development team
Once again mate,sorry if I wrong and asking fool

You're not asking fool... I agree with you if it will be great if we have devs team to work and focus on ICS... but we can't push devs, since they also have their real work in real world . But what we have now are Tj and ardX are still on the path of developing ICS for our device. So for now, they are already a team.

Yes mate,,,absolutly great since I know some device with lower quality than our device got ICS ROM (Before using CSL,I'm Galaxy Ace user and I look at SGA forums,they have Both ICS AOSP&AOKP Build n some ICS ROM Ported)
It's mean if ICS running on our device,absolutly more perfects than the other device
Ardx said,,he still resync repo,,I also asking about this on andro-id forum
Bro Ardx was told me it's repo AOKP
It means he fully rebuild this ICS project,am I right?

Arya (quite Indian Name) ... there is one team, what CK mention already who is working on ICS and that is of TJ and adrX, there is another team for our device, that is of ZUK and Whyzee, they worked together for many GB ROMS . May be after getting custom kernel for ICS from Napstar and after getting ICS ROM from adrX, they can port other ICS ROM too. Even elol may team up with them.
Also we can expect MIUI ICS from CK and FR. for FCKR software they already worked together ...

As MIUI is somwhat stable and CM is stable it would be about time for some developer to port this Ubuntu Touch to our device.
I would even share some beers for this issue if this speedens up the process.
Please devs - give it a try! I dont think we need the 23rd themed AOPK or another parallel CM Version. Ubuntu Touch for our phone would be really an innovation such as the PAC Man or MIUI

As I recall diegoch bro told to build/port the cm10.2 or Ubuntu touch for our phone as soon as cm10.1 would be stable enough. As the cm 10.2 is being build by shaaan bro, maybe diegoch bro would go for Ubuntu touch. So just be patient and support them .

Discussion Tread for Cyanogenmod 11 (Android 4.4.x KitKat)/ Cyanogenmod 10.2(jb)

Hello everyone, Like everyones know Galaxy mini (s5570) received kitkat/Jelly Bean(cyanogenmod 11/10.2[unofficial]) , since samsung stopped supporting this device devs've started a hard work to update this device.
All AndroidArmv6 Team specially @erikcas , @yajnab , @psyke83 (remember if i forget you and sorry)
and at the moment we're getting stable rom of kitkat and already stable jellybean
Kitkat 4.4.x:
Whats Working ??
everything
what is wrong on this rom ?
batery drains too faster this problems contains in many others kk ROMs including devices . ask google to fix .. xd
Jelly Bean 4.3.x:
Whats working ??
everything
Whats wrong on this rom ?
only small things
the rom was in alpha stage, but already is stable, some people using it daily.
At the moment Jelly beam 4.3 was a amazing rom for daily, lastest's releases from jenkins are incredible.
where i can find more info ?
- you can search for yajnab Tread in Original development section.
Where i can download the rom ?
- look for Jenkins.androidarmv6.org/view/Android/Builds (download only "TASS" builds)
you can look too for Review.androidarmv6.org (see it for reviews of fixed etc)
Where can i find Gapps ?
- i think no was a full package for Gapps (no much space left in the system)
Whats never going to be fixed ?
- google now voice search (dont wait for it, never going to be fixed, why ? device its armv6 google now voice search works only in armv7 .) and others few things
batery- KitKat really takes so much batery!
do thanks for devs of armv6 Team.
if possible donate or pay a drink for their
if you have anything that can help with the development post here. (fixes solutions etc)
i stopped testing with this Device since i buyed a Lg optimus L5(E612)
but i'm here you can use my PM to help (question possible solutions littles things too)
and sorry for my slower updates, its why i'm not at home theses days and i have only 5% of free time to check the forum.
Hot News!!! :
all changes are going to be merged so if any build have a old bug dont worry . only report .
psyke83 said:
Please folks, always take the time to upload logs. You appear to have no active developer who owns a Mini at this moment, so we (other androidarmv6 developers) rely exclusively on users to assist in fixing bugs specific to your device.

on general kitkat just need minimum 512MB RAM right?? for JB need 1GB ram ??
sorry for my english
Guys,I dont want to destroy your hope but, I have 4.4 on my XT and RAM manager is still pretty same as it was on CM10.2 ..still 300mb +- RAM in use.
Maybe is minimum requirement 512MB but mini have only 279MB.

384MB* About 105MB of it is system reserved, which is not accounted by the requirements.
Why are we worried? JB needs 1gb and it ran on Mini. KK needs half of it, it should run just fine.
android 4.4 was made by google optimized to take less ram memory.
will work better than cm10-10.1-10.2 .
galaxy mini no have a totally hardware support but no have problem try right ?
As my Gio just died, I'm back to reading these forums for the sake of keeping my brother's Mini decent now, haha.
Speaking of which, yeah, I'm curious how CM11 will run, seeing how anything up to CM10 runs smoothly (CM10.1 not so much, CM10.2 horribly).
We'll get a surprise. Two possibilities is that it's either going to run so horribly that we'll not even consider using it, or it'll be as nice and smooth as CM9 is if not better (Although I wouldn't count on that).

lastest release of cm 10.1 was better than cyanogenmod 10 .

[Dev][Experimantal][Kernel][ION] nAa-ION Kernel

This is Strictly Development i u know something plz share if don't then be slient
What is ION .?
Noob way :- It makes things awsome -by lauppenstepperwolf
there is awsome explaination on LX git Wiki
LX said:
#### What is Shared Memory?
Memory is usually private; an app takes a chunk and nothing else can access it.
Sometimes, it makes sense to share memory between processes; for example, an app writes to the screen buffer, while the gfx driver reads that same buffer to put it on the screen. You need a special memory system for that.
####PMEM vs. ION
Back with Gingerbread, every ARM chip maker (Qualcomm, TI, nVidia, Samsung, more?) had their own way of doing shared memory. The Qualcomm way was a system called **PMEM**.
Problem: when a vendor sells a chip to Sony and Samsung, he needs to write two drivers, one for each shared memory system.
To reduce maintenance efforts, Google introduced **ION**, a unified shared memory system, that all vendors use since ICS
Problem: from ICS forward, Qualcomm only provides graphics drivers for ION. PMEM is obsolete.
For a while, stuff still worked, but it is getting worse for us - see the Google Maps app for example.
####Move to ION
An option is to rework the kernel, replace the PMEM system with ION, and replace the old PMEM drivers with newer ION drivers. A common problem on several old devices is, that the camera chip is non-standard, and Sony (Samsung, HTC) never wrote ION drivers for the old cameras. Moving to ION then means you lose the camera completely.
A new solution is to move the kernel to ION, but have a PMEM system on top of ION so that the old camera libs can connect to it. As far as I know, this was pioneered by the Dev_Connection team that maintains the Samsung S+ i9001 (great team, hats off to Christopher83 especially).
Another implementation of an ION/PMEM hybrid was made by galaxyfreak for the HTC Explorer (Pico).
The i9001 and the Pico have similar hardware to our 2011 Xperias (2011, MSM, 512MB RAM, similar specs).
Feedback for the ION builds is very positive. Performance is good and it solves some graphics problems like the Google Maps flickering, and it solves the slow browser.
####ION on LegacyXperia
It would be the next big step after the 3.x kernel, but, it's a lot of work.
On the i9001, 8 devs work on 1 device, while on our side, 1 dev works on 8 devices.
The i9001 approach was to migrate 10.1 to ION, then 10.2, then 11; instead of directly doing 11-ION.

ION and PMEM should'nt be device specific, no ? Isn't the work done on i9001 reusable here ?
First it could be interesting to locate all patches applied on the kernel to implement the hybrid memory allocation.
Edit :
I suppose the kernel in question is this one :

Thanks for your work! I love KK rom and im wait ion kernel :thumbup:
Regards
To many 4.4 roms are coming out....in my opinion all kitkat devs should focus on just 2 roms and this really good kernel.
At least with 2 different 4.4 roms there is still competiton for improvement without scattering work to much.
A nicely developed kitkat will save out Arc from retirement.
Btw i was wondering, since HDMI sources for kitkat are not available, would it be possible to create-compile a MHL compatibility for our arc? so we can use MHL accessory instead of HDMI? Or a virtual machine on kitkat running the stock ICS HDMI feature?
I'm no dev so i have no idea how hard it could be.....just asking out of curiosity, many use hdmi on arc for movies or android desktop with OTG mouse and keyboard. Its really a pity we cannot make it work on 4.4 yet.

A better Kitkat .. lets summerize current kernel situation
1. nAa 3.4 full of hacks
2. using drivers and stuffs from 3.0.x
3. Stuck on Abandoned PMEM {with every increasing android version we are using patches more than before to maintain PMEM causing soo many graphic lags
4. msm_fb code /* lets not focus on it currently */
why this mess /* to bring 3.4 kernel faster */
i m trying on 3.0.x-nAa kernel cause it is Pure CAF and also mike is working on Pure CAF 3.4.x MHL enablin gis such a lot and lot of work we are not in fully stable stage to look at MHL and other workaround first..
our device is a 3 year old piece of hardware without camera and HDMI libs using outdated kernel and drivers what should be the main goal
1. To make kernel updated with current sources
2. then make things working
3. then wprkaround for all abandoned hardware(like HDMI)
hope u know why we are focus on kernels and roms know ... and to come at point of compeion in roms
there is no compeition we are not selling our products .. we are working cause we like it and more roms means more respect for developers who are working tirelessly on maintaining those roms @Marchinho6 please no these kinds of post ..!these will spam thread
