Why are the 2.1 builds all missing camera functionality? - Hero CDMA General

I'm just wondering why all of the 2.1 builds I've seen on XDA for the CDMA Hero are all missing the camera functionality.

Because Kernel .29 is not out yet.
So we have the 2.1 FIRMWARE, but its on the old .27 kernel.
So once we get the .29 kernel, we will have full access to the 2.1 Firmware...

Because the correct kernel has not been released in order to have the correct device drivers to use in the ROM. Until that is either released or backported, no camera.

nd where can u find this?? the new kernel?

We won't get camera till either the .29 kernel for CDMA Hero is release or someone gets it to work with .27 kernel we currently have.

Ughhh Thats Hella Gayy lol

What I'm confused by is that if our 2.1 for the Hero is ported over from the leaked 2.1 Eris build, why we don't have the 2.6.29 kernel, since it is on the Eris...?

Yea. The eris 2.1 was just leaked. Maybe someone will slip the CDMA hero 2.1 out the back door as well.

I think there are some small differences with the hardware that wont allow it to work.

Everything but the Eris Kernel. Thats why they have camera and etc....

OMG is this Thread even necessary, this has been addressed AD NAUSEUM in all the 2.1 threads..

No it doesn't but it does mean a lot more roms for root users

This is what we need to get OC'ing working right?
Can we flash this to our current roms?

This is already in all the current ROMs. Now we can start using modified kernels that allow for OC and the like.

Yeah that's what I was thinking by I didn't know for sure. But why couldnt we OC before if we already if we already had the kernal?
mmm.......

I don't think you understand what this is. This isn't a rom or a patch or an update. This is the source code to the Eris's kernel. We didn't have this before, we were waiting on HTC to release it.
Do a google search for linux kernel to get a better idea of what a kernel is.

The runnable form of the kernel can't be changed (much very easily, at least). Having the source code renders making real changes to the kernel feasible.
very nice. i cannot wait to come back from vacation to see our phone finally OC'd
YESS! Finally
So this wont help find a vulnerability for us leak users?
It may help find a hole in 2.1 for leakers... But dont get your hopes up to high.. The 1.5 source didn't yield much in the way of root when it was released. Im more excited to possibly see OC on the Eris!!
I'm not a leaker, but there's a thread in General that talks about the incredable being rooted from just the source. That's where you'll probobly find a hole.

Latest Kernel for Hero?

Hi
Am running CM6 alpha, love it.
Just wondering if there's a newer kernel for the Hero than what I am running, which is 2.6.29?
2.6.34 would be good!

It's Android 2.2 - CM6
Hopefully 2.2 can be stabilized, it is a rather mature version of Android that I can live with for the rest of the device.

samsung source code for captivate

i saw this a few months ago hopefully it can help build some roms.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/8510941/SGH-I897_OpenSource.tar.gz
i just opened the files and its says platform eclair sorry guys hopefully a 2.2 will come out soon.
if anyone wants to build a asop eclair that would be great.
Downloading...
Is nobody else interested in this? Seems like we would be able to build a non TW Eclair rom out of it.
Is this Froyo or eclair?

Yes. This is the old JF6/JH7 source code which was used to build the old voodoo kernel and the old UV/OC kernel.

no, you're right.....Myn's Z port is Froyo, not GB
if Myn has a ported GB/Sense ROM, he has not released it in the Dev forum....

Overclock Kernel/ Kernel Module

Now that most of us have an unlocked bootloader, is an overclocked kernel module possible?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Possible yes, but I think custom ROMs will come first.
I think we need kernel source for that if not already given.

Isn't the source already released by Motorola? I downloaded the kernel from Motorola's website and looked thru some battery drivers, but didn't look for any frequency CPU stuff.
Ok thank you for the clarification. Now we just have to cross our fingers for CM7... And I thought kholk was making a kernel module... did he ever get it working?

ok. people put 10char in their message because XDA requires there to be 10 characters in any post. then you add how ever many slashes to equal 10 characters.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/atrix.motorola/files/
The kernels are available there.
Yes, this is official Motorola.
http://opensource.motorola.com/ tells you to go to http://sourceforge.net/motorola/ and from there I clicked "All Motorola Android Projects" then "ATRIX" then "Downloads"
Wasn't very hard to find at all.
To download it click "Looking for the latest version? Download kernel.tar.gz (XX.X MB)" (currently 86.1 MB)
I was gonna compile an overclock kernel, but would rather not mess with 2.2 if 2.3 is around the corner. Maybe ill get around to it this weekend for 2.2 for ****s and giggles(obviously we have no 2.3 source yet)

Why not try 2.2.2 to see what you can do, and get familiar with the kernel, then do 2.3.4 for real.
