Had some success, needed to sleep. It was 3 am...

Patchrom works, just need to fix a few things...

Thank you DH & Agrabren it's been really amazing to see your dedication to seeing this thing through. You've put forth an effort that is greatly appreciated and a positive attitude. This speaks greatly especially since don't consider yourself a developer. no matter what the definition of a developer truly is you are my developer. Now I'm going back to continue my routine refreshing of this thread...don't judge me

I hope that wasn't for me cause I'm more of the addicted type not insistent but if it sounds like that I apologize.

Oh, I totally consider myself a developer. And fortunately, so does my employer, who pays me to be not just a developer, but a software architect. I've been writing software for 32 years.

I'm making good progress on the CM9 base. It's been a bit tricky, but it's definitely getting close. Once it's up and running, I'll be helping DH with any gotchas in the MIUI patchroms to it (since I can fix the CM source to be better aligned with what they want).

So, a little update for everybody, as I know I've been flapping my digital gums as of late...

I've been playing around with trying all kinds of methods to assemble a working ICS MIUI using both the leaked builds and stuff that Agrabren's been throwing at me.

Nothing wants to boot.

In looking at some of the other builds that are out there, I'm discovering a lot of things about how a ROM is made into an MIUI ROM, versus just stealing files from other people's builds. You know...because this stuff has to come from SOMEWHERE...it doesn't just magically appear.

Resultingly, I've been spending a lot of time looking at the actual code for MIUI in the patchrom system...and how it works. And through talking with Agrabren and Joelz, I've discovered that not all of the ROMS use CM as a base. Specifically, the sensation port.

Now, the sensation ICS/sense rom and 3VO ICS/sense rom are incredibly similar - as is the hardware. This is why we had the ICS previews in the first place.

This means that if we now have a working ICS rom for our devices, then we should be able to plug it into the MIUICS patchrom system, change a few things, and it should spit out a working MIUICS for us.

At least, that's how it sounds on paper.

Of course, I still have a fairly rudimentary idea of how all this stuff works. As I've pointed out numerous times...I'm not a developer. But, I'm starting to get my brain wrapped around this patchrom system. If I can get it working, it means that we will have the ability to build a real MIUI, versus having to port from another device and hope everything works.

Uh...so...I am doing stuff over here. I'm currently synching with the patchrom repo, then I'll be editing and trying to run this baby. If it yields success, you'll know.

End ramble...

Edit: Holy ****...I think I've got the patchrom running...

Prepare workspace completed!

I've been using a version of Joelz rom that I modified some stuff on...

It's goooooiiiiiing!! I've got the default workspace setup (frameworks extracted), and it's in the process of doing the firstpatch process, where it's checking for errors in the build process. Provided this works - I should have it spitting out (what it thinks is) a completed ROM in a few minutes...

Code:

digitalhigh@digitalhigh-Precision-M90:~/PATCHROM3/sensation$ make fullota >>> Install framework resources for apktool... install framework-miui-res.apk /home/digitalhigh/PATCHROM3/tools/apktool --quiet if /home/digitalhigh/PATCHROM3/miui/system/framework/framework-miui-res.apk unzip >/dev/null sensation_3.32.zip "system/framework/*.apk" -d out install out/system/framework/framework-res.apk install out/system/framework/com.htc.resources.apk > build out/framework-res.apk... add miui overlay resources /home/digitalhigh/PATCHROM3/tools/remove_redef.py >/dev/null out/framework-res /home/digitalhigh/PATCHROM3/tools/apktool --quiet b out/framework-res out/framework-res.apk

If you get anywhere with this its because of HackerMi. As any Dev I think he deserves the proper credit and he doesnt get much mention even in Sensation forums. Hes done everything with the Sensation to get Patchrom to build with it. Dont take this as a bash to you because its not. Just as toast is the reason we have CM at all.

The hard part is getting a pure Shooter build. I havent tried building yet with the ICS leak but GB is a pain and they dont support it anymore. GB builds needed CM as a base for them. Now they claim you need a stock rom for ICS. HackerMi used ICS sense like you mention and has gotten it where you should be building to, but be warned. There may be TONS of smali editing that needs to be done and support for Patchrom is a bit scarce. My first attempts led to hundreds of smali edits to be done by scratch that Patchrom couldn't "patch". F that. I knew ICS was around the corner and wasnt going to waste the time with a pure GB build since we had the ports already.

I dont think CM will work with Patchrom V4. As my previous post and DH mentioned MIUI states you now need a stock rom to "patch" instead of CM. How true this is I dont know. Just some fyi's. They could do a way better job and release true source but they wont. They cheated and put out Patchrom.

Yeah I'm still getting used to forum manners, didn't think about putting you in the non developer category, it was actually towards dh. But again I apologize if I disrespected your skills or your property recognition, good sir.

One more important post and im done.

I want to publicly apologize to you for starting crap with you in chads thread. I speak way too soon in these forums and I was wrong.

DH my apologies also from scotts thread. I support anyone trying to learn more and misjudged you.

Good luck with patchrom guys. I hope its not as much of a pain as it was for me 2 months ago. Too much going on irl for me to try to develop anything at the moment and thought no one was even trying patchrom anymore.

valdesr11 · May 16, 2012

If I still had Thanks to give out, I would spam your posts with them. Thank you Matt, I hope you stick around this thread.

agrabren · May 16, 2012

mrjs84day, MattCrystal: Don't worry about it.

There's a lot that goes on "behind the scenes" in the android community, and it's hard to keep track of who is involved with what. To make matters worse, after I announced fre3vo, someone realized my real name was tied to my Twitter account, and started using that for credit instead of my handle. I had stopped posting things on XDA, and instead, was giving news bits to whichever forum was asking nicely that day. I'm involved in this thread, because I'm working with DH to get a stable ROM. The problem with Sense-based ROMs is that they're bloated and battery-hungry.

J3STUR · May 16, 2012

Lol, I keep coming back to this thread to check the progress. I cant wait for ICS Miui. Thank you guys, hope its not too much of a pain to get this going.

NineInchNails · May 16, 2012

I know when im wrong and I was.

I have absolutely no problem giving credit where credit is due. I'd like to think I'm pretty good about making it clear that what I do is largely copy+paste work and following other peoples' tutorials. I know that whenever I get this booting, I'll have quite the list of people to give credit to.

As far as who said what about whom...don't sweat it. I got pissed the other night and ran my mouth in Chad's thread despite knowing better. I deliberately opened myself up for flaming, and so if you said something in response to that, I ain't mad atcha. Hell, TBH, I never even went to see the aftermath. I said my piece, then came back over here and haven't looked back.

But yeah...I can see that the patchrom is not quite as easy as I'd assumed. Getting all the pieces in place is just one part of it. However, I've got a number of examples to go off of, a great person to go to with my dummy questions, as well as the infinite majesty of the interweb. I think we should be able to get something out of this.

valdesr11 · May 16, 2012

So how is this finally going to work? Are you guys going to team up and stick to this thread or is Agrabren going to take over Joelz thread and continue where he left off?

2ndComing · May 16, 2012

Bluetooth Please

Can we focus more on the important things like getting Bluetooth Media going

I been wanting this rom for a while but I have to have my bluetooth media

Keep up the good work and pm me and let me know when you got that going haahaa.

You might want to wait till they get the rom to boot before putting that request in

Edit - Or I'll try a few more things first...

I know how to copy + paste.. so if you need me to help you Ctrl-C or Ctrl-V anything, just give me a shout

But really, i do development at work, java and sql mostly.. i would like to get into android development so that i could give something back to the community, i just have a hard time figuring out where to start ha

I have a question for you if you don't mind answering it.. Um, when you're comfortable with your CM9 work, is there any chance of you posting it or maybe just sharing it with this who would like to run it?
