[DEV][WIP]Building ICS for the OV

[BobZhome]

What ever you guys decide is ok by me, just note that I don't build pure...my builds are on the custom side to my liking.

On a side note, I had three PM's this morning to release my build. Please do not PM me for a release because this is the answer you will get:

One alpha release is enough...there are still to many issues with the build at the present moment.
Right now, I'm just trying to help out with improving it.
When I feel it can be used on a daily bases, I'll post it.

Also, if your building off my git, please use it for personal use...do not release it. Thanks!

Can someone help me here? I'm stumped. Building ICS from BobZHome's git..

make: *** No rule to make target `vendor/cm/proprietary/lib/armeabi/libjackpal-androidterm3.so', needed by `out/target/product/thunderc/system/lib/libjackpal-androidterm3.so'.  Stop.

I can't for the life of me find libjackpal-androidterm3.so anywhere..

EDIT: Nevermind. Added in tdm's files that he provided.

Seems to be working

I yanked the CM proprietary stuff out from vendor/cm/config/common.mk:

 PRODUCT_COPY_FILES +=  \
-    vendor/cm/proprietary/RomManager.apk:system/app/RomManager.apk \
-    vendor/cm/proprietary/Term.apk:system/app/Term.apk \
-    vendor/cm/proprietary/lib/armeabi/libjackpal-androidterm3.so:system/lib/libjackpal-androidterm3
     vendor/cm/prebuilt/common/bootanimation.zip:system/media/bootanimation.zip

Don't know if there's a better way, but I didn't want RomManager and there's several terminals in the market.

Ok this is really annoying. The 2.6.32 stable series is apparently maintained by opensuse on gitorious and does not exist in the mainline kernel repo.

So if we're gonna use github -- and we are -- then the first thing I need to do is fetch and merge the opensuse repo. I don't know if it's just bad timing or what, but gitorious.org is giving me network timeouts and all sorts of badness right now trying to do a fetch.

I did succeed in getting a good clone though. So I guess I'll try to use my local opensuse clone as a remote for the linux-2.6 repo to fetch.

Hey Bob, I can't for the life of me get data or wifi to work with your build..

EDIT: Got data to work.. no wifi though
EDIT2: flashed drews kernel and got wifi working looks good Bob!

Now lupohirp and arjen say they have the camera working. They took clues from another phone's working camera, so I imagine we can follow suit (Blarf is the camera expert, he will know for sure).

Do you know arjen's git? Lupohirp only updates his git after a new release and arjen said he was going to be pushing it up that night.,

No I couldn't find arjen's, and from what he posted, I believe they both keep things under wraps and share with each other till whatever they are working on is stable. Makes sense, helps keep focus on the task at hand.

Finally got my build environment working on LeslieAnn's communuity server.

Thank You Very Much LeslieAnn!!!

Running BACKside-ICS 0.0.2 now, slimmed her down to 76mb so far. I started with CM9-ICS + tdm's dumps.

Thank You Very Much tdm!!!

I've spent most of the day making changes, adding in fixes, and getting a feel for the layout.

Thank You Very Much gannon!!!

Will be working on MMS tonite, and I'll post results.

Big thanks to drewwalton for gingerkernel!!!

Huge thanks to lupohirp and arjen for all their hard work, as well as the CM and AOSP teams, and many many more!

Will push changes to github soon, but they are mostly mirror everyone else's atm, I don't plan on porting the BACKside mods till we iron out some stuff.

This should get native USB and adb working like normal. Remember to turn on debugging. I'm still working on the wifi and airplane mode. Airplane modes switches fine when wifi isn't working. But the toggle hangs when wifi is active and working.

For adb and usb, sorry its part of some big commits. But these should get it working and remember to comment out the Usbstorage.apk.

This file, don't copy all the drm extra's, it breaks market downloads.

Were you guys able to get GingerKernel (now iScream) to work on the V? If so, would you mind creating a new branch and submitting a pull request with any applicable changes? I'd like to keep the Optimus V version aligned with future iScream builds.

Right now, I'm just using the your kernel itself, thank you very much btw!

tdm and BobZhome are working on porting it over to the OV, and tdm is looking at how far up the kernel line he can go with it.

We are discussing how we are going to organize IHO for the big push to IHO-ICS. PM's you details.

WOW!!
Since it was first born, it weighed in at well over 110MB. This ROM has been cut on a hugeee diet to 88.3MB on TDM's and then on another diet to ~76MB since Jerry got his hands on it.

That's one weird baby. Lol

I say thanks to all the developers who make the OV owners happier, now that ICS is coming.

Maybe we should name it Benjamin Button.

You mean after my great great grandpa?
(My last name is Button[not kidding])

 

[JerryScript]

Down to 65.6mb, now that's what I call slim-fast.

That's about the size of BACKside, any slimmer, and it may lose functionality! [/poor punch line]

What exactly have you done to it?

 

[thekraven]

This one should fix market downloads from my previous post.

Still airplane mode is a bugger.

And you can comment out in BoardConfig.mk
#TARGET_PROVIDES_LIBRIL := true
since we are still on the old LG basebands, it doesn't do anything anyway since we copy the proprietary files, and the libril doesn't get made.
