BH_MAN · April 13th, 2010, 11:52 PM

Okay Guys... It's a WIP based off GAOSP 2.1, but got it Running

No Vibrate / Sound / Camera / Wifi atm Moment.,..

2.1! That looks beautiful lol. Good Luck buddy.

~~dglowen23~~ · April 14th, 2010, 12:05 AM

Hey BH_MAN i am not much of a Dev myself but i have been interested in it. If u can tell me just a couple things that i need to do to help u out i totally would. But if u feel that i wont be much help then i understand. Ive never made a Rom or hack but i learn easily and am very understanding of cell phones... Particularly android

BH_MAN · April 14th, 2010, 12:08 AM

Not trying to Be Rude, but If I have to tell you what to do this is a little Redundant for me & the whole Process of getting it working correctly is all.

~~dglowen23~~ · April 14th, 2010, 12:21 AM

No worries i understand. Im not very experienced so maybe i can do my research and help with a different project or something. Sorry i cant be of assistance this time.

a.dt.martinez · April 14th, 2010, 12:56 AM

wow....just plain awesome, best of luck to ya, and thank you again for all your hard work

BH_MAN · April 14th, 2010, 01:17 AM

Will Upload in the Morning / When I wake up..

eric.roman20 · April 14th, 2010, 01:51 AM

this seems interesting... i already have the 2.1 on my G1 using Cyanogen Mod... I wanna take this baby for a test drive... lol

SweetGreen · April 14th, 2010, 07:19 AM

BH_MAN is really the man sammy and tmobile are taking too long good to know someone like this guy is giving them the finger and rooting it for 2.1

thugjedi91 · April 14th, 2010, 08:54 AM

looks sick, is there multi-touch?

microhaxo · April 14th, 2010, 09:40 AM

wish i was more experienced with the kernel, then i'd be able to possibly sort out the drivers.

sado1 · April 14th, 2010, 11:43 AM

It's based off GAOSP, not MustyMod - at least as we can see on the screenshots. By the way, GAOSP is really in need of some devs to help with overall project (atm drakaz must do almost everything on his own), so it would be good idea if some developers from BH2 community would help. More rapid development should start when 1.6 kernel sources for Samsung Galaxy are released (it should be much easier to port 1.6 2.6.29 kernel to 2.1 than 1.5 2.6.27 one), but we have much work done with 1.5 kernel too (still, it's probably going to be abandoned soon so I don't see much sense porting it to BH2 now, just'll be a waste of time). You're welcome to join our IRC channel - #i7500 @ FreeNode and ask drakaz if you want to code for us. I'm also available at #behold2.

And btw, I wouldn't hope for Multitouch as I believe we've tested BH2's screen too when we were testing Galaxy one. The problem is that Galaxy touchscreen's firmware (not to be confused with phone's firmware) doesn't recognize the position of more than one finger (and it's likely the case with BH2).

BH_MAN · April 14th, 2010, 12:38 PM

Currently I'm using the 2.6.29 Kernel along with the 2.1 Ril File's... I had to Merge alot of Moment Files in the 2.1 GOSAP build for it to even work / Boot given the RFS Security both Phone's use's.

ibnturab · April 14th, 2010, 09:12 PM

Why is it based on Samsung Moment and not Samsung Galaxy I5700 which is already on 2.1 ?

Ohgami · April 14th, 2010, 09:19 PM

I would assume it has more to do with the Moment also having a Leak of 2 2.1 roms. And I know that they have tried the i5700 with little success.

Ohgami · April 14th, 2010, 11:48 PM

Hows the progress on this? Were you still going to upload the files for this?

twobambutree · April 16th, 2010, 05:11 PM

Thanks man...you are the best..

Rexrbgh · April 16th, 2010, 05:19 PM

Would there be anyway to overlay touchwiz on 2.1? (Don't hate me for liking Touchwiz)

Ohgami · April 16th, 2010, 05:32 PM

I think for TW on the 2.1 we'd be better off waiting for Sammy to come through on that front...assuming there's no leak like what happened to the Moment's 2.1.

Also the Moment 2's TW (Not the Moment Android 2.1 but Moment version 2) is very different than the BH 2's TW. I suspect We'll get that. (unless BH_MAN knows anything different)

I believe the TW for 2.1 will be very different than the TW we are used to since some of the things Sammy added in the 1.5 TW are common items in 2.1 (Camera zoom, Bluetooth and Wifi Features). I have a strange feeling that the Behold 2's TW 2.1 will make it's appearance about the time the T959 is due to come out in June (rumored).

I'm sure there's an GUI engineer somewhere at Samsung who's using your post to refute his firing.

Ohgami · April 16th, 2010, 07:23 PM

Of course now that I said what I said and not kept it to myself I'll be proven wrong :P

No you are Correct

Regarding teh Image......

I need to Get it back on my Phone again... I DD over the system image I had, but still can get it back up and going again...

I'm going to try some Older File's and Hope I can get it going with Sound.. If so then I'll be a Happy Camper for now

I got a few Hours tonight, so I'll do a few tries with it..

Ohgami · April 16th, 2010, 10:28 PM

btw I Threw this thread as a place holder for your 2.1 Rom on the Rom List Thread.

Thanks...

You might Remove the Hero port though... I have no desire to port that now... More of a Proof of concept post, maybe later after / if I can get 2.1 going... that's my main goal at this point.

Ohgami · April 16th, 2010, 11:19 PM

I thought as much that's why I put that it was on hold.

SweetGreen · April 18th, 2010, 01:39 PM

How is work going on this still trying to get root access I will be trying the linux route now.

BH_MAN · April 19th, 2010, 01:58 PM

no work had been Done...
Last 4 / 5 day's I've been swamped with work at home and Helping Family with Stuff as well...

I've not even had a chance to work on the 1.6 no twiz rom / R9 either....

mjgyesme · April 21st, 2010, 01:34 AM

I'd like to help, but I could use a tutorial on this kind of thing. Any suggestions?

Start here, and if you're not a programmer, you may not want to head down that road at all, and just enjoy the end result of it all. Throw BH_MAN some beer money for all of his hard work. I'm a C++, Java, and Visual Basic programmer, and I'm just starting to get into this. It's a steep learning curve.

mjgyesme · April 21st, 2010, 09:29 AM

Thanks, bionicgrape. I've made a couple of backups with that method already. Came in pretty handy. I'm a Java and .NET developer by day, and I moonlight in whatever language they pay me to do

Are there any other tutorials out there for tweaking roms? I don't need my hand held, just a place to start.

derrickps3 · April 21st, 2010, 11:43 AM

good luck, it looks nice so far

Not that I've seen

Ohgami · April 25th, 2010, 11:50 PM

How far did you end up on this before the Big Crash? Anyway I can test it out? Also were you going to go back to this after the Recovery is finished?

wcp0611 · April 29th, 2010, 10:03 AM

I haven't seen anyone post as of lately. BH, how's the 2.1 rom coming? I just installed 1.6 no Twiz and LOVE IT!!!!

You're doing God's work, BH. You're doing God's work.

.joseph · April 29th, 2010, 02:38 PM

Curious on any development on 2.1 too, I heard 2.1 for the Dream is pretty close to being released, (I know they are completely different platforms).

BH_MAN · April 29th, 2010, 06:33 PM

thegame3202 · April 30th, 2010, 06:07 PM

Does the new cyanogen version 2.1 help this out at all? He made it for the G1 and mt3g. Just released. Weird that there isn't sound. How do you have to port this over? Do you have to figure out what the behold lists the same items as and change the code to work with that format? i.e. if sound on the phone this is ripped from is labeled "sound1", "sound2" etc, but is labeled "audio1", etc on the behold, do you have to change every file to go with that?

BH_MAN · April 30th, 2010, 06:09 PM

um? wow... I don't even know where to start to catch you up to speed regarding lib's.

thegame3202 · April 30th, 2010, 06:10 PM

lmao! Then I will stay out of it :-P

spiz · April 30th, 2010, 06:17 PM

Cool good luck to whoever tackles this!

frank_nitty2201 · April 30th, 2010, 06:20 PM

thank for the link on twitter...just read that you were looking for devs and not testers...wish i knew how to do all that...hope we can get this going. nice work BH_MAN ;-)

2FR35H · April 30th, 2010, 06:27 PM

Actually I would like to give this developing ago, I know a few things about java and would be a great way to continue learning about programming hands on since thats what I am majoring in anyways but I need to know what are the chances of bricking the phone?

thegame3202 · April 30th, 2010, 07:47 PM

Use the emulator :-P

Hmm.. good point I will definitely get to doing that just trying not to brick mine because I love this phone now lol especially thanks to BH_Man's Rom. Especially WarHeads, its a success if you use the new kernel BH_Man also made. I only get one FC now as opposed to the millions from just flashing warheads alone lol.
