You are correct.

that was before sprint EOL'd it in march.

I did a brief search but didn't find any other omap 3630 devices with cm9 builds. Can anyone find one? Don't care if it's official, just want a good github repo to look at.

FOP may not update their sources for some time, their dev is not responsive.

OMAP - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[ROM][ICS][4.0.4][IMM76L] EXPERIMENTAL CyanogenMod 9 - Alpha 9 - DEV ONLY! - xda-developers

[ICS 4.0.4]Unofficial CM9 - Nightly 6 Released - [07/03/2012] - xda-developers

[ICS] CM9 Android 4.0.4 for the Defy (Froyo kernel) - xda-developers

[ROM] CyanogenMod 9 [BETA] (DX) (6/22)

CyanogenMod 9 [UNOFFICIAL][Beta] (4/24) - Droid 2/R2D2 Development - RootzWiki

some of them might not have their sources linked and there might be a couple I missed.

Thanks, I think my first stop is going to be the teamhacksung github, android_device_samsung_galaxysl repo. I love teamhacksung, they do awesome work!

FOP has not updated sources since initial release.

Don't see sources for the Defy, DX, or D2 roms.

All, I am interested in learning and helping with this. Even if it is just to test things out, I want to be part of this and learn things here and there. This is my first droid phone, and I am not sure my experience gives me much to go off of as I am a database admin so most of what I work with is SQL and some Visual Basic so I'm not sure that will translate much, but I am a fast study and more than willing to help however I can!

Been working on this furiously today. I pilfered teamhacksung's BoardConfig.mk and their libs (libaudio, libcamera, etc.) Unfortunately, no visible progress. Same thing happens with surfaceflinger failing to init due to the PowerVR driver (/dev/pvrsrvkm ioctl).

But I did find out that if I delete /system/lib/hw/gralloc.omap3.so the system will come up, according to logcat, but the screen is black. So that's kind of a clue.

Finally, I downloaded a teamhacksung i9003 rom and compared. It looks like gralloc.omap3.so from their rom is the exact same bits as the one that FOP is using. So again, that's a clue.

I just know the issue is something silly.... just need to find and fix it.

are you making it to the boot animation or stuck on the LG logo? are you using the stock zImage?

When trying to get to the bottom of a matter it is always the smallest detail that is overlooked. And silly enough that small detail can cause big problems. If you need someone to d some legwork for you I am donating my time to your cause . Pm and tell me what to do. so that you can focus on the bigger issue at hand.

 

[tdm]

The boot animation won't run until surfaceflinger is up. But it's not the lg logo, it's a weird squished version of cm's cid... Probably an initlogo.rle or something.

 

[tdm]

Yes I'm using the stock kernel for now. Less moving parts to troubleshoot.

the stock zImage won't boot, it needs the GPU drivers updated to get to the animation, at least it did for me.

try one of these out, they both boot up all the way.

Hyper 2.0 zImage with updated GPU drivers - hypericskerneltest.zip

FOP CM9 zImage - blackcm9kernel.zip

the ramdisks in both are from the FOP CM9 with mounts changed for the marquee, init.p970.usb.rc renamed to init.ls855.usb.rc and the hciattach file name corrected.

You got to a cm9 boot animation? Sweet! Does the system come up?

I've had it fully booting for like a week, but I didn't build the rom from source, I just ported the rom FOP already had built.

my bugs are no sound, no 3G, camera says failed to connect or something like that, vibration doesn't work(which is a kernel bug apparently since it works fine with the black's zImage), keyboard doesn't open up(another problem in the kernel).

but wifi works, adb/usb works, signal works till i break it trying to fix 3G and all the apps seem to work.

 

[tdm]

Ok cool. I'll give it a try with those kernels tomorrow. I have a feeling thats going to fix it. And the i9003 shims should get audio and camera working. Can't wait!

 

[Craptorman]

I can confirm Blooddawns suggestions work. Used the FOP kernel and I'm booted up fine on my Ignite. I was unable to before. No adb during boot tho. Hmmm.

Use the hyper ics and it will work, but vibrate and the keyboard break. I gotta find wtf is breaking them.

Source for hyper ics?

Ill upload it tomorrow

I think I can fix those.

I'll have to try it tomorrow. To many beers and I got the early shift tomorrow. The screen wake up issue is gone tho, I'm officially scrapping my CM7 project after seeing this working so far on my phone.

 

[tdm]

FOP kernel compiled first try.

This kind of makes me sad still, I was still hoping to see a nice stable CM7 on this phone even with CM9. Options are always nice

 

[Craptorman]

Well I think if one of them gets to a stable state the other will be right behind it.

 

[tdm]

Finally got to see a boot animation and a brief glimpse of the desktop.

I swapped out the PowerVR libs for the FOP versions and used Blooddawn's HyperICS kernel.

Man that was painful, but so gratifying to see finally see that desktop.

Now I need to fix up my build and look at a few more things... egl config, kepad/touchscreen config, etc. Hopefully I can get a basic working phone today or tomorrow...

 

[tdm]

Okay here's where I'm at right now:

Screen and touchscreen work, except for brightness. Screen comes up full brightness but after the first screen-off, it goes to full dim and stays there.

Capacitive keys work, except home. Virtual keyboard works.

Bluetooth audio works.

Cameras are almost working. Front camera is upside down, back camera has inverted colors.

Wifi is almost working. Scans but won't connect to WPA networks.

Speaker is not working for audio.

RIL does not work.

Sound does not work.

No idea about vibrator.

Did I miss anything?

Can you upload a zip of the rom?

Ill have my kernel source up when i get home from work btw.
