DONATIONS NEEDED

ok... here's the deal..

i don't like asking for donations, because i am doing this almost for fun, and learning new stuff. but this time its really needed...
i trying to expand the linaro/sabermod builds "business".. for this, we should start to have our own website for starters, where i can publish our builds.
websites requires work, knowledge, and money above all.
the website is already a WIP, and almost complete:

http://pierun.tk/white/
http://pierun.tk/dark/

thanks @Pumpernikiell for the work he had.

it will have two versions. one white, the one i gave the link, and a dark one.

i am asking if to you all, that every day download and use the builds i compile, if all of you give just even $1/1€, it will be enough money to buy a domain, a hosting server, and maybe if theres enough donations, even a VPS...

so, please donate what you can, so this project goes forward, and keeps getting better, and better.

you can donate, using this link: DONATE

thank you all,

F.A.Q (Frequently Asked Questions)

What is the difference between these builds and the official builds?

These are unofficial builds of CyanogenMod 10.2 for the i9100.
ROM is built using the same source code (github) like the official one but with these following additions:

• Compiled using linaro arm-eabi 4.7.4 13.09 (kernel code) & linaro arm-linux-androideabi 4.8.2 13.09 (rom code) toolchain compilers
• May contain some custom cherry-picks. Always see changelog for details.
• Cross-compiled using those custom toolchains results in a more smoother, faster, and battery friendly ROM

What is Toolchain?

In software, a toolchain is the set of programming tools that are used to create a product (typically another computer program or system of programs). The tools may be used in a chain, so that the output of each tool becomes the input for the next, but the term is used widely to refer to any set of linked development tools.
A simple software development toolchain consists of a compiler and linker to transform the source code into an executable program, libraries to provide interfaces to the operating system, and a debugger. A complex product such as a video game needs tools for preparing sound effects, music, textures, 3-dimensional models, and animations, and further tools for combining these resources into the finished product.

Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toolchain

What is SaberMod?

The term "SaberMod" is coming from:

SaberMod is a AOSP based ROM with some extra features added in and mostly from CyanogenMod. SaberMod started out pure AOSP when android 4.2.1 launched. Originally it was pure AOSP with a few extra features I ported over from CyanogeMod and linaro optimizations. Then I rebased everything off of rasbeanjelly because I liked many features found in rasbean. Since then I've modified a lot of the code so not much of it is rasbeanjelly based anymore. But you will still find some commonly used features found in rasbeanjelly. SaberMod is not a rasbeanjelly or CM clone, or KANG. Custom kernels are included for certain devices when available. These are personal builds we make for ourselves and originally became very popular in the nexus 7 forums. Features are very rarely added, and are built to SaberMod's team members liking. Currently there are two members of SaberMod working on this project. Myself and @jarjar124 . Please understand our time is limited and we are only two people who have lives, and do not have 25-50 members like CyanogenMod to add things. And our goal is not to add a bunch of features that bloat the system of the ROM.

What is Linaro?

Linaro is the place where engineers from the world's leading technology companies define the future of Linux on ARM. The company is a not-for-profit engineering organization with over 120 engineers working on consolidating and optimizing open source software for the ARM architecture, including the GCC toolchain, the Linux kernel, ARM power management, graphics and multimedia interfaces.

About GCC main compiler cflags

-O1
Optimize. Optimizing compilation takes somewhat more time, and a lot more memory for a large function. With -O, the compiler tries to reduce code size and execution time, without performing any optimizations that take a great deal of compilation time.

-O2
Optimize even more. GCC performs nearly all supported optimizations that do not involve a space-speed tradeoff. As compared to -O, this option increases both compilation time and the performance of the generated code. -O2 turns on all optimization flags specified by -O.

-O3
Optimize yet more. -O3 turns on all optimizations specified by -O2 and also turns on the -finline-functions, -funswitch-loops, -fpredictive-commoning, -fgcse-after-reload, -ftree-loop-vectorize, -ftree-slp-vectorize, -fvect-cost-model, -ftree-partial-pre and -fipa-cp-clone options.

-Os
Optimize for size. -Os enables all -O2 optimizations that do not typically increase code size. It also performs further optimizations designed to reduce code size.

i'm using gcc linaro arm compiler 13.06/4.8 201306 at almost a month... NEVER gave me problems on my builds, and seems more smooth and battery friendly than the compiler that CM Jenkins buildbot uses.

running ubuntu 13.04 x64 / kernel 3.8.0-26

regards.

Any idea why Bluetooth audio routing to Mono devices (BT Mono for example) doesn't work on CM10.1? It used to work on CM10.

no. sorry..

but, have you tried these:

Mono Bluetooh Router

&

Super BT Mono

give it a try.

The main difference between these builds and the official ones, is that these builds are compiled using the GCC Linaro 4.8 201306 toolchain. Has been stated by users (and by myself) that this results in a smoother UI, and better battery usage..

also, check these two links:

[leblvin]

Giving this a try! I'll give you feedback =)

 

[endstille]

thanks for posting this, i'll use your build for the moment

but i have some questions for trying linaro on my own.
am i right, that one can follow these instructions?
https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Android/BuildSource

i'm asking, because they say it's linaro 4.4.X while you use 4.8

following this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1988315 we have to choose a specific toolchain and "use" it.
does this replace the official instruction
"Install Linaro tools

sudo apt-get install linaro-image-tools"

thank you for your help =)

PS: i'm also running latest (k)ubuntu 13.04.

 

[infected_]

its easy... try to follow this little tutorial i made.

open a shell and navigate to you root folder of your source tree, and then "prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/arm/"
run: "wget http://releases.linaro.org/13.06/components/toolchain/gcc-linaro/4.8/gcc-linaro-4.8-2013.06.tar.bz2"
Run: "bunzip2 *.tar.bz2"
Run: "tar -xvf *.tar"
Open you file manager and navigate to the root folder of your source tree again.
Navigate To "/build", in your root folder.
run: gksudo gedit envsetup.sh
change the line in bold, got to look equal:

case $ARCH in
        x86) toolchaindir=x86/i686-linux-android-4.6/bin
            ;;
       [B] arm) toolchaindir=arm/gcc-linaro-4.8-2013.06[/B]
            ;;
        mips) toolchaindir=mips/mipsel-linux-android-4.6/bin
            ;;
        *)
            echo "Can't find toolchain for unknown architecture: $ARCH"
            toolchaindir=xxxxxxxxx
            ;;
esac

save the file and reboot, you are done!

regards.

PS: Forget about apt package linaro-image-tools ... !

Nice! I'll try this ROM later!

Would you recommend to flash another kernel? I'm using CM10.1 + custom Siyah kernel based

yeah you can use a custom kernel. you have good options now:

Dorimanx 8.32/9.32 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1617219

KangBang 1.3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2311448

Gustavo_S Siyah_CM based kernel build 0605 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2222843

My current favourite is KangBang 1.3, with "zzmove" governor, and "zen" scheduler ..

I'm using Gustavo_S Siyah_CM based kernel build 0605. I prefer long battery life. Which is the best?

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9100 mit Tapatalk 4

they are the same build, but because i changed buid.prop from "UNOFFICIAL" to "INFECTED", it was giving error on the md5sums, and some users asked me to upload "untouched" build, so the md5sum match up ..

Like i said on my previous post, my current favourite is KangBang 1.3 + init.d scripts.. Gustavo_S kernel is also good, but its a bit outdated, now even more with new release of mali drivers.

Rom performs as good as any other nightly before, no issues, battery seems slighty better, I'll report at the end of my cycle, I'm curious about the usual ril crash after two days uptime, (memleak) b/c I hate reboots...

Well done @iNFECTED.:thumbup:

What's the difference between Your builds and Kalpik's build? Just asking.,
I asked Kalpik also.. hehe
