Help with 1 upstream - P8lite Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys.
With one guy, who doesn't have Huawei phone, we try to debug why 3.10.90 isn't booting, but logcat seems that everything is okkey, and cat /proc/kmsg and other adb shell commands gives errors. So I try go get a help, could someone upstream the following kernel (3.10.89) to 3.10.90 and make it bootable too ? I tried it for 4 days, modifying ramdisk, etcetc... nothing worked... couldn't debug cuz adb shell wasn't working(i mean it was working, but next commands weren't, i even installed adb insecure ap, usb debugg on etc).
@XTutorials @surdu_petru @haky 86 @XePeleato(if you know somehow ) @DingDongPow or others. Thanks!
https://ufile.io/rvlmk (why no github ? 1. ffs can't even upload it there 2. only when i finish the upstreams)

You must learn to crawl before you can walk.
In the first place you are debugging userspace when the change you made was in the kernel, obviously you aren't catching the error, whatever it is.

Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it.

In this case if you don't understand the code, you are obviously not going to be able to debug it.
Spend some time familiarizing yourself with the kernel, it's the only way to learn.

@dominj97

Here I am, days pass noone help... A guy with totally different phone helped me more than actual p8 lite devs, ty... (i understand that some can't help, but the rest?.. Shame)

We just don't have the time to spoonfeed you. We are no tech support nor we have to provide you with support, the shame is that you refuse to actually learn something and just want to compile that damn kernel no matter the cost. It takes like five minutes to someone with enough skill to compile a kernel (it's just running a command).
The sooner you understand that this is out of your league and start with the basics, the better.
It's your choice to take this as advice or as a rant.

We continue here, okey xd
First, i already learned the basics. I know the command to build, but bcs we don't have a source kernel, I'm running from problems to problems.i can solve easy problems, but when not even google heard about it nor other phone devs, it's something interesting.... I know that you aren't a scam tech supp...i mean tech support, but damn, it's soo hard to answer to at least 1 message out of 5? I'm having more help from a stranger, who is pshichologist, and work alot, but still help more than from actuall "friends".. I understand you, no phone no help, XTutorials did everything he could, haky too (somehow). I'm here being ignored bcs I didn't borned with Linux under my as...house. I don't think that it's sooooooooooo hard to answer a question, even a harder one, you won't lose your job or school free time with that "ruined" 2-10 min. This start to be off topic anyways. I already passed these problems. Now i try to work with hakys kernel

Can you post it here? Any picture or log of that error?

Hmm.. I was watching that... Little chance that there is something wrong, as i know for sure that i modified it to the right path. Will check, maybe gcc is named linux_x86-x64 not only linux_x86 idk, thanks for the hint. (build.sh file)

Try to run in a Terminal 'aarch64-linux-android-gcc' if it can't find it, then it isn't set properly. It also complains because where you are trying to build it is not clean, Are you building in a different directory? (out/)

K I'll try. Out of directory? Downloaded/extracted to downloads, renamed, (modified), changed build.sh and that's it xd.

Well, it says it isn't clean so you've tried to compile it without specifying an out directory (make whatever) instead of (make O=out/ whatever)

Actually, I'm using your(i mean hakys kernel, but you fixed his wifi problems) kernel. Will that work on stock?
Oooohhh and i had a problem with config.. It said something config not found for merge_hi6250(p9 right?)... So i copied Alice defconfig and renamed that, and than it was working *insert black guy meme pointing at his head*

There's where I can't help, I don't know if it will work. That wifi thing was made for non EMUI systems, but that doesn't mean that it can't work on EMUI.

New Eris Vendor Tree

Ok, folks... Some very industrious devs have worked out a more complete vendor tree for the Eris at http://github.com/punk-kaos/vendor_htc_desirec. I've synced it into -
$AOSPsource/froyo/vendor/htc/desirec <-- this is the level that all of the files are at (i.e. everything under vendor_htc_desirec/ from the repo)
I'm a little lost as to where to go from there. I've looked at multiple vendor trees, and everyone seems to do things a little differently each time.
Can any of you point me in the right direction?
Thanks!
Kudos to Kaos, jamezelle, conap, vinylfreak89, & darchstar! You really rock.
Ok, so I copied it all under
$AOSPsource/froyo/device/htc/
Since that's where the dream, passion, etc. stuff is.
Now, I do a - 'source build/envsetup.sh' and it seems to find the desirec stuff.
including device/htc/desirec/vendorsetup.sh
including device/htc/dream/vendorsetup.sh
including device/htc/passion/vendorsetup.sh
including device/htc/sapphire/vendorsetup.sh​
I'm stuck at what to do a 'lunch' on now. In the vendorsetup.sh, there's a 'cyanogen_desirec-eng'.
When I 'lunch cyanogen_desirec-eng', I get -
build/core/product_config.mk:190: *** _nic.PRODUCTS.[[device/htc/desirec/froyo_desirec.mk]]: "vendor/htc/desirec/device_desirec-vendor-blobs.mk" does not exist. Stop.
** Don't have a product spec for: 'cyanogen_desirec'
** Do you have the right repo manifest?​
Getting closer!
Applause
I read you posts and see the questions you ask(that never seemed to get answered)and you will post some stuff you have learned all to help someone else who might want to get started dinking around with a pretty cool open source operating system. I applaud you for asking questions and when no one replies you answer it again yourself. You are the true definition of open source!
Im fairly new to this whole scene so excuse the "dumb" question but what exactly is a vendor tree?
You are stellar. I am going to try and port a froyo rom and then start to build something from the ground up. The questions you ask and the information you provide is invaluable. Want to put a rom project together?

Thank you. Many devs have helped me to learn all that I have learned. They are busy people just like most of us. Some of them probably don't pay attention to the forum that often. Some just have their own projects. Some hang out in IRC instead of looking in here. Actually, I've learned a lot in IRC, even when I just kick back and lurk. I really do want to get all of the info that I learn out here in the forum where 'noobs' are lurking. I've found that there is a certain level of detail that is available fairly easily with the search box. There's a point where it takes some real digging to figure things out. My hope is that it won't always be that way.
I tried manually taking all of the files and settings from the vendor tree and inserting them into SgtShultz. It didn't fix things. So, I'm thinking that either it really does have to be compiled in or this tree and AOSP Froyo don't quite mesh. Since there is some source code in the tree, that is most likely the issue.
I never could get the lunch command to work. That file is not there, and I'm still not sure what it should contain if I were to create it. Getting this to work would really help both of my other current projects...

When you compile AOSP and/or variants from source, there is generally no device specific code - like drivers for instance. The vendor tree just sets everything up to add those proprietary files and settings into the mix, so that the resulting ROM will actually be usable. That's the idea anyway!
thanks for all the work you've been doing recently! i've followed the other thread as well... and am happy to say that i use (and appreciate) your work!

I also have a "dumb" question.
If this is for the Eris, then why are the files under the "desire" name? I thought the eris was based on the hero platform or am I missing something obvious here?

I am currently working through them, but had to stop because it's time for me to get ready for work.

Great question! HTC's 'internal' name for the Eris is 'desirec' apparently. (Note that it's 'desirec' not 'desire'.) It was somewhat confusing when they came out with the Desire...

Holy cow! I did not run it because I already have all of those files in place. It didn't occur to me to check and see if 'extract-files.sh' does something more than just pull the files.
Thank you.

So, I commented out all of the 'adb pull' statements in the 'extract-files.sh' script, since the files are already there. Now I see that extract-files was creating the ...blobs.mk file under vendor/htc/desirec instead of device/htc/desirec. So, I changed that and ran it all again...
cd $AOSPsource/froyo
device/htc/desirec/extract-files.sh
source build/envsetup.sh

Thanks again! I know better than to do a drive by like that. I spent two minutes testing, posted the results, and then left to run errands for most of the day.
I'll try again when i get home.
so ive patched up the vendor on my computer (some files were pointing to devices/htc/desirec) and when i finally got it to behave i ran into something worse..
Code:
build/core/combo/TARGET_linux-arm.mk:39: *** Unknown ARM architecture version: armv6. Stop.
i ended up changing the lunch to desirec-eng because it wouldnt resolve the product name... im not a dev but i sure have a nose for this sort of thing, and help or an armv6.mk file would be appreciated

How 'bout telling him what it does, instead of just putting him down and calling him a noob?
@lpachuong, there's nothing we can do with it -yet-, since we have no way to re-encrypt them. It's possible we could do something like build a system.img and flash it with dd, though for now it's only good for poking around in the images.

Too many users ask lots of questions that could be avoided by reading the posts / some other topics. I can totally understand him.
Of course it's no problem to answer 1 or 2 questions - but there are many questions and lots of them do repeat.
for command line one can use this xor 0.2 (aluigi.altervista.org/mytoolz.htm).

It looked to me like he had read it, and didn't understand it, possibly to a language barrior.
Also, saying that it's not useful to him (in a polite way) is a lot better than saying that he's a noob and has no business working with it, and would have taken just as long to type. There's a point where he's just being rude to be rude. :|

Sorry, it's not. This info is available right here in this forum. All you have to do is look.
There is a difference between a noob and a newb. Right now all I see is a newb asking for information that can be freely found if one spends some time looking for it.
If you notice, the OP has helped quite a few people with legitimate questions and/or concerns.
Thank you for your understanding. But I should apologize for causing the troubles. I didn't know what the purpose of decrypting the zip file was, when there is no further step after that.
I guess I will be just more patient and wait until we can get access to the recovery mode. I just can't stand it when Acer has no update in Australia. I messed with dd the system and flex img before as well. Hopefully during this time, OP or someone else will come up with something that can re-encrypt it. I saw the chinese update.zip used signapk to pack the package but I failed to do so.
I don't mind being called noob =) People usually call me nerd so it sounds good to be called noob sometimes =D
peace.
dude you want to know how you're supposed to provide information and provide support?
read one of my guides below.
anyways dont apologize dude, just dont mind some of these cranky guys.
If I decide to keep my Iconia, I'll consolidate all that information and make a guide somewhere.

SM-T3300NU?? Help?? INFO??

i see there are no SM-T3300NU roms but i did make one in (Cygwin) kitchen on windows 7 ultimate 64bit but i'm still scared to flash it because it is my first rom ive made and i just bought this device and its sooo cool im trying to reach out to others and get some advice on what i should do to see if this rom works or if someone like to try it.
It is a pre-rooted rom with busybox and i made it from the devices firmware (NK1) im also reaching out to devs too because im trying to learn to make roms and apps and i think im doing a great job so far but i guess i need a bit of a push perhaps a mentor or tutor of some sort please if you have any input or help for what im doing here please leave a comment in this tread TY in advance
============================================================================================================================

I forget exactly what the bootloader file was called but your zipped rom should contain boot.img and a few folders like system, bla bla bla. To make sure, be sure that in your updater script, contains the correct mounting points/partition points so the zip rom can flash the stuff into the right areas. As long none of those mounting/partition stuff isn't leading to the bootloader. I would ask an Dev regarding those mounting points. I assume you ran this through a kitchen correct?
-DUHA
upload it so we can test it
if you wanna help lol
Dude..., Dude ?!? Dude ?!?!?!?!
sm-t330nu bootloader is @
/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 sbl1
[i think] xD
there is no way you could possibly overwrite that with any rom build/mod , unless of course you are
a world class dummy. And since there are no dummies anywhere on XDA [ ... EVER !!! ] :silly:
There's no need to worry right ?????????

Dude..., Dude ?!? Dude ?!?!?!?!
sm-t330nu bootloader is @
/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 sbl1
[i think] xD
there is no way you could possibly overwrite that with any rom build/mod , unless of course you are
a world class dummy. And since there are no dummies anywhere on XDA [ ... EVER !!! ] :silly:
There's no need to worry right ?????????

M,
create an account at androidfilehost and apply for developer status so you
can upload there, or upload it to google drive or mega. I'd need to see what it
is you are actually working on. @sub77 makes a good point, if you won't
test out your own work then why get into it? You would be well served, as emoboy
does a lousy job of getting across, to suspend further question and do more
reading, reading, reading, especially my posts for a wonderful mix of lame humour,
dumb questions, insightful remarks, astute observations, bad spelling, and even
worse language in some situations ! xD

Kid, your 15, i'd think confusion goes with the territory. Be snarky if you must, but, be helpful
while your at it. Savvy?

BTW this thread belongs in q&a.
@mrdreamers if you want......send me the updater-script and your partition layout (via PM or on my hangouts.....its my email in my profile) and I'll take a look at it.

I would imagine because the filesize is too big, XDA has filesize limits for different file types, and I can't imagine an entire rom zip being smaller than the cut-off. Moonbutt74 is right (protip, he always is and even on the rare occasions he isn't he's still much cleverer than you or me), upload it to android file host (you do have to request developer status, but they should approve it within like an hour or two max iirc) or google drive if you're really too impatient to wait for android file host

Assuming you've already made an account and are logged into it, there is a drop-down menu on the upper right-hand corner of the page that should say, "Hey, <yourusername>" Click it and select settings. The fourth setting down under user settings > my preferences should be called "request developer/upload access", that's the one you're after

You need dev status for android file host, not google drive. When making posts use the Insert Link button to link to your upload links. Any file uploaded to your google drive that you allowed to be shared with the public should have its own URL. Any file you upload to android file host will definitely be given its own url. You can copy/paste that url into Insert Link into your post/thread

Shadow Led on Note 4

hi guys..

tried also correct the paths but no luck.

Do you know if your rom and kernel support init.d? And if so, do you have busybox installed? Maybe try ensuring that stuff is there and see if it works. Good luck! If you get it working, mind posting a vid of it in action? I'm vewy curious now lol

According to a touchwiz rom (OB7) the path is:
/sys/class/leds/(color)
Color can be: blue, green, red, white
I'm no master of code for linux yet but i think maybe the following code:
Code:
echo mmc0 > /sys/class/leds/led:rgb_blue/trigger;
Gets changed to the following code:
Code:
echo mmc0 > /sys/class/leds/blue/trigger;
Maybe? I'm not 100% on that but just a guess. What do you think? Of course, the trigger file has a bunch of "triggers" in it already so just be sure to back it up just to be safe before trying this.

I figured it was too simple and that you probably had already looked into that, but it was worth a shot [emoji14]
Awesomeness! Can't wait to see it in action and to learn the correct paths. Thanks for the update and I look forward to your progress! Thanks!
after many hours of testing various commands..combinations..etc.....can't make it works.dnt know why,but i can't.so im posting the correct path and if someone can help will be great!

but because this feature is perfect..i still believe that someone with more knowledge will make it work..

the path is right. i think it's the mmc0, 1 and 2 that are wrong. but i'm no scripter so i'm just guessing cause if you get rid of mmc0 and change it to say 4. no infinate bootloop but also no flashing leds

so within 2 days i will focus my attention it shadowled again and hopefully i can get it working permanently this time :fingers-crossed:

[Question] Is there Root for SM-G530P?

Just went over to sprint the other day and got this version that ha 5.1.1 installed out of the box. Been searching around and have yet to find anything that even list this version/build but see many others listed.
Is there a root/Pre-root rom that will work on this variant?
I second this! I have been searching for any info on rooting this specific device without luck! I don't mind doing research on how to do it and finding out how my self, just can't find anything at all to do so thus far!
Root for SM-G530P
I third this someone please help...
Before you get into flashing anything on the device....please be sure to enable OEM Unlocking under developers option.
Also, there seems to be a twrp recovery, however, I have not tested it out myself yet...when I do so I will let you all know if it's success or not.
Another thing, I think it's highly possible that the phone will require a "permissive" kernel...not too sure yet. I will advise shortly...
Ok I got news. The phone has been semi-rooted, I was right...it requires a permissive kernel in order for the phone to boot up once more. The people that come in mind when it comes to permissive sprint kernels are Freeza & Djvoleur. They can probably cook something up if they have the source code for this phone already.... also, we need a working twrp or philz recovery.... the ones provided do not work... meaning that it would be redundant to have a permissive kernel...if we don't have a working custom recovery to flash it over with.... unless there's another way to flash the zip file or maybe just the boot.img? I will keep updating this if I find anything further...

Wow sounds like this is it! Can't wait to try it when I get back home. Thanks for the updates guys!
EDIT: It works great, thanks for looking out and thanks for the work put into this to bring us root to our devices.
Now if I could just find a ROM for this thing that would make it a bit less bloated and run a bit smoother that will make it all worth while.
Hey i have this to please message me the information i need a reliable root A.S.A.P

Nice walls phunkee, like the fractal ones, very retro! Only weird thing on my handset tho, is when i apply the theme using hdwalls, i have to switch off / switch on, to get the top and bottom curtains to change. If i simply do a soft reset, it puts standard grey top/bottom curtains up. Happens with all downloaded themes, ones ive made myself, everything. Odd!
