Root Old times Die hard

id like to see one! i can help compile and test if you want? one of my friends, helped fix the audio routing problem for GB! even though i have a s3 lol. it would be cool!


If the audio problem was corrected, wheres the build for the community?

Like i said, The ICS project would be private and difficult but possible and i wont be doing it any time soon. It would be for unnactivated users probably as well.

The rom update will just improve the Ally and update features and options but nothing more. No ETA

cant post it in your forum, thread is locked :p.

So ill Just post it here!

This zip will fix the audio routing, well most of it.

The Auxilary out doesnt work.
Headphones worked great on my end.
Camera doesn't take pictures, but video recording works. (Dont know how to fix it)

Zip: kamesh kernel for lg ally.zip

Edit: i have a CM7.2 build, not booting dont know (n00b) .. also it be cool to see a 2.2.3 stock base up ;)

Thought i posted in here last night but i guess I didnt I recently replaced my Ally with a Razr M as did the rest of my family. However I wouldnt mind a good standalone rom for it as i could always reflash it to a working state if i needed to use the phone in a pinch like say fishing where i didnt want to have the chance of screwing over my razr

Links?
I do have a 2.3 base

If you can have your buddy compile a kernel for ICS, Il find you the repo to start setting up for the ally for an ICS build.


I'll post some when I get home.

EDIT: CM7.2 Link: http://www.sendspace.com/file/76jcxj

Same bugs as far as i can tell. Camera doesnt work, recorder should. Screen off animation doesnt either.

EDIT #2: LewaOS Link: http://www.sendspace.com/file/k6qemd

Same Bugs from CM7.2.

Also Biotic if you can find me the Repo, im getting in contact with some friends to get the ICS or .35 Kernel.

GSM vs CDMA um yes? lol

Storage
Wireless
Hardware acceleration (Video, Rptatiom, ect)
Hardware
Vendor files
Perferably an AOSP build for the because of memory issues. Least amount of extras as possible to save on Ram, CPU consumption, and Memory usage. May have to switch the device memory to read off of thw users SDcard.


It most likely be easier if we compiled from Optimus V(CDMA). As long as it can boot, it should give more room. As for memory issues other phones partitioned SD card to gain more memory.

I guess this is the best place for this... just to let you know, after flashing that zip, audio routing has been slightly improved. Without anything plugged in audio plays through the back speaker, like it should. With regular headphones (with no mic and a standard TRS connector) audio goes to the front earpiece instead of the headphones. This is still broken. However when i use my headphones with a built in mic (TRRS connector) audio goes to the headphones. Get the regular headphones working and this will be a very solid rom for what i want to use my ally for.
