PM'd you the vendor files.

PM'd you the vendor files.

thanks, just looked didnt see teh files or anything close to them to what id need, so im gunna scan through the init files looking for teh touchscreen binaries.

also for anyone that wants to be rid of it:

# for LogMeIn
mount ext4 /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system /system rw wait errors=panic remount

chown graphics /system/bin/RescueStarter
chmod 0755 /system/bin/RescueStarter
chown graphics /system/bin/RescueServer
chmod 0755 /system/bin/RescueServer

mount ext4 /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system /system ro wait errors=panic remount

....

# for LogMeIn
service RescueStarter /system/bin/RescueStarter
class core
user graphics
group input graphics

its a service provided by sprint/logmein that they can remote to your device and assist you should you have problems, some people prefer things like this to be removed, so just fyi

(that was in one of the init scripts)

Shabby, Nice to see you over here with the S4. I used a lot of your stuff in the Android Forums for the Metro S3. Ive now got the Sprint S4, and rooted. So today I decided to look for TWRP for it and lo and behold your here working on it. I flashed the one from the first post and got the slanties, so Im waiting for your next build. Awesome to have you here on this device too.

haha good to see you here too man, this is only temporary though. once stock odin packages, cwm, twrp are figured out i plan on leaving yall be.

I just love the rush of helping a new samsung device and learning all about teh new stuff on it

Either way its nice to have you even temporarily. Im no dev, but since going from the 720p S3, to the 1080p S4 I have noticed a few apps that didnt size stuff correctly. So I dont know if that has anything to do with it. Ive contacted Amazon about their latest App store build after noticing the update messed up the interface, and everything was way too large. They are looking into it.

Also Shabby if you need me to send you something from my S4 to help with TWRP just let me know. Im sure its hard to build blind like that.

Just tried and the issue is still there. Thanks for all your help though!

Not a recovery guy so forgive me if this is nonsense, but have you looked at the CWM/TWRP builds for the HTC One? I know it is HTC but it has the same resolution as ours. Maybe something there could help?

Actually no, this thing is device specific and is no longer related to resolution.
EDIT: @shabbypenguin try compiling a CWM recovery (not a based one i.e OUDHS), just for the sake of testing.

garwynn has his thread that is just a regular cwm and suffers the same issue, i was not expecting such a difference between the i9505 and us variants TBH. dees_troy is helping me try to figure out why twrp isnt registering touch, but i need a pull of /tmp/recovery.log from someone.

dispite all the similaraties this phone is different from git9505.
Used their source to compile the kernel.
Kernel is booting fine but no WiFi not data no phone.
So that would be problems with modules I guess.

And you combined jf common with jf_spr?
Maybe there are a few hidden changes that we haven't seen yet.
In either case sent a request to OSRC for source.

Also, before diving into the kernel I'm trying to do a few things with CM/CWM.
Should be able to set a few overlay items at least before I need to mess with the kernel.

You can take a look at my git.
I tried few thing and I worked with Talustus from Dream kernel the better part of sunday on the kernel.
He is deving for git9505 right now.
And yes I did use variand defconfig jf_spr for build.

 

[shabbypenguin]

so can anyone pull /tmp/recovery.log on both twrp and cwm for me?

Build a new version of TWRP after adding this as a flag if not done already. This is what I'm doing to fix twrp touch input issues on the N51XX. It'll log the touch events.

TWRP_EVENT_LOGGING := true

 

[garwynn]

I'm going to try another build soon for CWM - had to exclude some of you guys' changes to jflte-common as it wanted to keep looking for the kernel source and insert graphics source. Also going to try and start working on overlays to get the recovery image closer to stock. Just not sure how much will end up in common versus carrier.
