firmware.zip seemed to have wiped /sdcard Warning to others, flashing firmware.zip posted in this thread wiped my internal sdcard partition completely. No idea why. Thankfully most of my important files were backed up to the cloud but it inconvenienced me a significant amount. EDIT: Ah. This...

ROM support GPE kernels? Does this ROM (which is AOSP based) support GPE based kernels? I am used to the HTC Motion Launch gestures especially swipe up to unlock so not having it in this ROM is almost a deal breaker for me. Some of the GPE kernels like ElementalX supports Motion launch...

Another mirror please! Can someone post the CWM zip on another mirror? Mega seems to start well for me and then it slowly decreases in download speed until I hit < 1kbps and am stuck with the file half downloaded. Switched connections and browsers without success :(

Exploit Patched? I am in the same boat as you. If you had any of the 2-3 most recent OTAs, then you might be out of luck for a bit as the exploit that revone seems to rely on has been patched. :(

Post your paypal or PM it to me. I can at least buy you a beer for your trouble :D

I have been trying to import the android source into Eclipse (the entire root directory along with all of the files and subdirectories) as a single project as specified here in the AOSP documentation: http://source.android.com/source/using-eclipse.html No matter what I do though, I end up with...

I think he meant what OS was B2G originally tested and developed on, not what can it be built on now to which the answer is Samsung Galaxy SII. ---------- Post added at 04:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:43 PM ---------- I sincerely hope they find a way around it but secure boot is...

Wait what? I think your auto-correct went awry with your message. Can you please repeat that. ;)

The lack of on-screen button support is because of Mozilla's dev team mostly using the Samsung Galaxy SII as the official dev phone. AFAIK, they do not have any support for this in the source. It LOOKS like it is in the source but that is because at the moment, the B2G source tree is a hacked...

Not much unfortunately. There are two main reasons to this. 1) Gnex's HD screen - B2G was originally intended for a 480x800 resolution of the SGSII. All of the icons and images are scaled to the size. I couldn't find any way to force a lower screen density (it currently dynamically switches to...

Willing to help Boot 2 Gecko looks like a very interesting project and I will gladly spend some time to try to help you guys tackle it and get it working properly on Gnex. I have a GSM Galaxy Nexus and a dev. _moriarty I sent you a PM on it.

Wait, what are you talking about? Windows 8 will indeed work on ARM. The version is called Windows 8 RT

Yes that is correct. The UI framework that android uses is in the base ROM or system. Gapps just contains the assortment of Google applications that cannot be added into major ROMs directly due to licensing issues (since CM/AOKP source is GPL and Google apps are proprietary). This is why CM/AOKP...

Don't quote me on this but I believe the newer exchange apps have code that does much of the work for you by querying the Exchange server and figuring out the domain being used as well as the username from your email and password. That is why they probably don't ask you for the extra fields. If...

I have noticed that android always installs apps one by one. This is very apparent when restoring apps after a flash of a new ROM. Is there a way to do multiple simultaneous app installs as a modification for a custom ROM? I have installed apps to the phone by directly pushing them to...

Yup. Just heard back from the kernel dev. Only affects kernel v3.1 rc6 or earlier. Since you thankfully have v3.2+, we are safe By the way, great ROM. Very fluid. Thanks again!

Hard Brick Bug issue Hey LilChris, This ROM seems to be based on ICS leaks from Samsung (correct me if I am wrong). So does this mean that it is also inherently vulnerable to the same hard brick bug in the eMMC firmware? Here was the link outlining it in the event you didn't see it...

Questions, questions, questions.... :) A couple of questions: is this project and library you are giving to us (thank you btw :) ) open source?If so, is there a repository to which I can see the code and help contribute?I know .NET and Mono are very similar and most of the API is essentially...

If you are a developer, the best way is to read through the source found in the developer's git repo here: https://github.com/revolutionary/zergRush

Recovery is essentially a fail-safe mode. When something goes catastrophically wrong with your phone and you cant boot the OS, you can boot into the recovery partition and use it to factory reset your phone. It is also used to flash (install) new system updates. When your phone gets an OTA...

yup. As the others above me have said, Blackrose. If people want ICS and the FULL experience, then they wont mind installing it. No point in putting a cut down version when you already have enough to worry about getting camera and other stuff working.

Working with a few bugs Tried out your ROM and so far loving it. I am curious though, what seems to be the major problem with the camera that is preventing any progress on it? The Desire devs also seem to have the same problem (probably because of the similar hardware). When I get back to my...

Yeah I got it now after a fresh build. Apparently, I was messing with the package names and performing custom modifications and I didnt roll back the changes so when I tried building, it caused all kinds of problems. *facepalm* :p Additionally, The changes I am making are all in source, not...

I know you might have done this but I gotta ask the following: - Did you pull out the battery, put it back in, and hold POWER + Trackball + Volume Down until you got to fastboot. Then select the recovery option? - Can you please tell me what exactly it said when you tried to flash a new...

I am trying to change the default launcher in CM7 to something such as Launcher7. I tried to remove both the Launcher2 folder as well as ADWLauncher folder and add the Launcher7 source in /packages/apps but CM7 during build seems to add ADW back into the build so that when I flash it to my...

Nice to see you are making progress.

Yeah I am pretty sure you should add the LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS to all of the relevant pre-built files. maybe they made the compiler less harsh in ICS when compared to the one for gingerbread. In gingerbread, it outright crashed the compile and asked you to add the tags. According to Google...

Weird no-one has replied to this. In the android source code, navigate to this directory: android/system/frameworks/base/data/fonts Once there, copy paste any fonts into the folder (I usually just rename it to DroidSans.ttf and DroidSans-Bold.ttf so that the system picks it up without much...

I had already talked about this in another post so im just going to copy paste it out of laziness: As for kitchens, there are a bunch of them. For theming, there is UOT: http://uot.dakra.lt/ For HTC based phones (+ some others), there is dsxida...

Well AOSP as far as I know adds the stock recovery into the build so if you have a stock ROM, then you will lose your recovery (unless you change the source to skip the adding of recovery to otapackage). Your bootloader should be fine. so you will theoretically be able to re-flash a custom...

Yeah thats probably not going to happen for a simple reason: control. If Microsoft allows users to run Silverlight in browser, then there would be less incentive for silverlight devs to port over their web based apps to WP7. Why register for a developer account, pay the fees, unlock the phone...

Some links Start by going through source.android.com for the general basics if you havent already. Also, even though Google removed the PDK (Platform Developer's Kit) from the site, it has been mirrored on kandroid here: http://www.kandroid.org/online-pdk/guide/index.html The stuff in the the...

Can anyone tell me how and where to add a shutdown animation for the nexus one? I am trying to create one for my custom ROM. I already tried to add the images to a shutdown folder so that it is in the /system/media/shutdown and /system/media/video/shutdown directories but to no avail...

When you are working with source, its not called system/app all apps that are going to be baked into the ROM will be in the folder /packages/apps. So here are the basic steps: 1.Place your app source code in /packages/apps (just drop the source folder in) 2.Create 'Android.mk' file for the...

Already a member I have started making my own modified rom with CM as the base so why not? I also have been part of the Green ROM project but I stopped using it sometime ago because it was mostly stagnant. Hope some new blood can change that :)

I dont know if this has already been answered or not but make sure that the PROTO is correct. As far as I know, If you have WPA, then PROTO=WPA If you have WPA2, then PROTO=RSN Here is my conf file. FYI, my network was WPA not WPA2. Hope it helps: ctrl_interface=/var/run/wpa_supplicant...

More related toward Unix/Linux, the better I would seriously recommend OS X only because it is Unix based. When working, the environment will be very close to Linux as opposed to Windows which is not even close. This would definitely help when making custom roms or kernels as the compilation...

no april fools? Haha. yeah right. people have a sense of humor and its nice to pull a prank on a few people sometimes. ;)

I have been trying to build Cyanogen 7 from source for my nexus one. I have been following these instructions: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Compile_CyanogenMod_for_Passion Unfortunately, when I try to download rom-manager using the script that I downloaded from repo which is...

HTC HD2 for the major multi booter in you! Couldn't agree more. HTC phones have the best build quality and look IMHO while manufacturers like Samsung have phones that feel plasticky and cheap. I would personally recommend you to buy an HTC HD2 if your are a major dual booter. I know its old...

This might work! I was reading through some Samsung Intercept forums for you and this looks promising: http://forum.sdx-developers.com/intercept-development/vm-upgrade-to-froyo-2-2-with-no-baseband-modification/ Go through the first three steps and flash the stock 2.1 on to your phone and it...

Don't Give Up! Don't fret. You haven't bricked your phone yet. Ok. I checked to see if any forum or site was hosting the original signed zip of the OS that came with your phone and I couldn't find any. I have an idea though. Not sure if it might work but theoretically it should. Although...

Hm....Adb Ok you can't "apply sdcard:update.zip" because even though you rooted your phone, you don't have a custom recovery. You have the stock recovery image that comes with your phone. This means that every zip you try to "apply" or flash will automatically be checked for a signature (to...

Try Factory Reset Don't worry, the initial rooting process is the hardest part. After that, it only gets easier. Then you can put on whatever custom ROM you want and trust me, its awesome! ;) Anyway, I don't think you need to use adb juuust yet. Did you try to get to recovery mode yet and try...

Adb? This tells me you basically deleted some system applications that support the Google applications like Gmail, Calendar, etc. Not a good thing lol. Next time when you are deleting "bloatware," don't delete anything that starts with com.google or com.system. These are the packages that help...

Recovery Hi, Did you try using the 3 button trick to access your recovery? 3 buttons would be holding: Home, Power, Volume up (all at the same time for a few seconds). This might not work as I hear some Galaxy S phones have it enabled and some don't. Also, to flash clockwork recovery, the...

Rom and Recovery I am assuming your phone is rooted so can you please tell me what ROM and recovery you are running?

More info please Before people can help you, you need to give more information. What is the model for your phone and is it rooted? If so, what ROM is it running and what custom recovery do you have?

YES!!!!!!!!!! ^.^ OMG Thank You!!!! It works perfectly now. I don't know what happened before. Now I am going to try to mess with the resolutions to see if I can get everything bigger and cleaner. Do you by chance know if there is a limit to the size of the boot animation? I made it 8mb...

Compression Yeah, I tried it both ways with WinRar and 7-Zip and made sure it was set to "Store" as the minimal to no compression option.
