EB13 Kernel

Just compiled the kernel from the EB13 source. I noticed some drivers for TV-out being made.. Dont want to create any false hope but maybe this release can get us some nice features.

sounds good to me! Tv-out would be amazing for this phone!

There are tv out drivers in the old versions too.

I though maybe there had been. Maybe they can get them working in 2.2.

If you browse on your phone's root to
/sys/devices/platform/s5p-tvout
you'll find several files. Is this the same thing you came across?

I thought the device is hardware limited in the sense that the 3.5mm jack is missing the required connections to do TV-Out?

There are some people over in the dev section who felt there was a good reason to try and get it working.. After looking into the source code a bit deeper, it seems the last changes to any of the driver files (tv-out and hdmi are both mentioned) was in November. So they havent really done much to it recently.

This is what I had in mind also. Hopefully someone will get SOME kind of tv out working. Playstation Suite (for GB only) on a big screen would be pretty cool!

[Q] Honeycomb on Hero?

can anybody port the 3.0 honeycomb version to our beloved Hero?
they did it to the G1/Magic, here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RKEHfOwnSI&feature=player_embedded
any hope??

If there is a port to G1/Magic I guess that is possible a port to Hero..

yea, let us know
it's certainly buildable for the hero - but most hardware will be broken I would imagine.

Sitting here, playing with an ugly port of the sdk, the first images,most just to remove my pin code so I can get into the system

yes elelinux!
do you think when the sources get released you would have much chance of building a full (or near full) working honeycomb rom?

I think it's possible, but it will not be easy. Especially because Honeycomb is made for tablets... and not for our phones.

If it's built from SDK I bet that almost none of the hardware is working...

That is correct, but strangely all the backlighting of the buttons etc worked out of the box, buttons it is easy to fix if you want.
Just a little test for fun nothing else, also saw that there was support for mdpi so theoretically it could be working on Hero with some manual intervention.
Another thing to, boot up without problems

Yes but hardly anything is working! Even the Nexus one has no audio,wifi,bluetooth,calls!

Yes, it is foolish to ask for a ROM that's meant to run on tablets to be made for phones. But I never have never said and never will say no to a new ROM...
Sent from my Hero using XDA App

Yes it's going to run like ass and our screens won't do any good either.
But... as always, I'm eager to see what crazy stuff the ROM-people come up with.

but the sdk version includes some feature of switching from tablet to mobile mode by simply changing resolution... they won't have included it if it wasn't meant to be run on mobiles, and in 3.1, mobile (2.x) and tablet (3.0) development lines shall be joined (says wikipedia lol). moreover, lots of people out here said it would be impossible to run 2.2 and 2.3 on hero, and right now i'm looking at my rooted android 2.3 hero which is incredibly smooth and stable (way better than with stock os). so why shouldn't it be possible? ele just said even backlight of the buttons worked out of the box, which was not case in 2.x. i'm still believing in our developers (although i can't code well enough to support them ) and i'm sure they'll do some magic
greets, Summoner

Do you really use wikipedia for truths? Anyone can add to Wiki?!

no i don't... i just think it sounds possible... otherwise, there would be two future development lines which the consequence would be that there were VERY different features depending where more / the better devs work on lol^^
i didn't claim it was the absolute truth, otherwise i wouldn't have explicitly said it came from wiki ...

What happened to the original Full HDMI?

I know that before team win was working on Full HDMI there was someone else that already had a beta out. If I remember correctly, it was fully functional compared to the one put out by team win. Where can I find this at?
Thanks,

Violation of GPL. The developer only released a public beta to get people to buy it once of is released.

Also, you should be able to find it in the Evo 4G roots and hacks forum at www.androidcentral.com

Oh, that kind of sucks. I was hoping to try this app out now that I just got my new HD tv. I've been hearing that the one released by team win is not fully functional.

The other guys app isn't fully functional neither, its still considered a beta also. The team win hdmi is free as compared to the guy orrembas(android central) has a trial. He said when his app hits the market the trial will automatically end and not work you will need to pay for it. I've used both apps and only thing the other guys has is sound(which isn't all that great cause it flickers while team wins doesn't). Good luck

Incorrect. One of the kernels to enable the HDMI app was in violation of GPL and that was pulled by the dev in order to comply with GPL rules. The app does not violate anything and neither does the stock kernel with the HDMI drivers.

How do you miss something you've pretty much never had? lol Either way, no worries. Sooner than later, you will have options as far as HDMI mirroring goes. I find myself getting a lot more use out of my phone now with this feature. It really is awesome.

Based on the Latest post it will be hitting the market pretty soon.
Still no update on if he will release the custom drivers he wrote so they can be integrated into other kernels, although I believe that the drivers aren't needed in the new version, he is able to use the App in software mode.
Hardware mode requires drivers and overclocking which is what was in violation of GPL. Last I checked neither Team win or orrebmas has realeased source code to their Kernels.

The HDMI drivers from orrebmas have been public for a long while now. It would be up to the kernel cookers to compile them into the existing and/or future kernels builds.

Hopefully only a matter of time before some new Kernels are released, using the SBC one concerns me a little.

The Next Big Thing for S II (ROM Feature)

Hey!
I am kinda interested to see what S II users want for the next big Feature in all ROM or a suggestion of ROM.
Except the basic features which all ROMs have like Root,Init.d,BLN etc.
And if the suggestion is clicky I will try to develop the ROM ASAP! with the same feature. OF COURSE...DUH!

Make a ROM that gives me the power of seduction.

NO one does simply ask question like this

How about Dual/Multi boot? I know that this has already been done by the great 'HellCatDroid' but it still has certain limitations and it's a proof-of-concept but when it comes to actual practice, it's not possible to use it. May be someone could design a 'multi' boot loader (/bootmanager?)

Find a way to recover the hidden 500 meg partition on our phone and use it for something useful.
But I still say power of seduction.

No wakelock implementation of BLN...

Make a rom which has better battery life than all other roms out there

I want my phone to implement the latest CM9 commits each time I reboot. I also want it to have a kernel built from source.
I'll keep dreaming.

just talking here, but this isn't too far fetched. on a fairly complicated setup, you can actually accomplish something similar with: cronjob to compile CM automatically on your linux computer + ClockworkMod scripts (Koush might have removed this in recent recoveries, not too sure) + Tasker. strictlyrude27 and brandall used to backup their ROMs automatically with Tasker executing shell commands, so flashing a ROM was/is probably possible. Just figure a way to get the compiled ZIP over to your SD card (probably rsync) and have Tasker execute shell commands on a reboot..

Thats what we need the most right now! +1

An exchange email application that doesn't drain battery like the stock Samsung app on active sync.
It needs the sources to fix but no suitable sources have ever been released to fix the bug.
Even the market ones drain battery.
I'll keep dreaming that one day we'll get a battery friendly exchange application with push.
And no I won't get a blackberry I had one before and as well as it works the whole o/s is severely lacking.

Request "enable usb audio for dac device " mod or kernal

This "Enable USB audio", requesting by user to standardize USB audio on Android smartphones/tablets, is currently ranked 7 of 20,775 on google just in 6 month only...
Anyone can let me know which kernal or rom is support this feature well ??
so that i can use my DAC device on s2 just like apple product
(known ;redpill kernal...)

No SGS2 kernels support it. And I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for one. Very unlikely to happen.

Try out redpill with Hyperdroid Androidmeda to see if it works for you... Doubt it will though.

ok thks ..i try to flash it now ..

100 bucks says it doesn't work. Better devs than that guy have had a look at it & gone 'Nup".
You won't see this on SGS2 given development is very much mature (I.E closer to being no more development than development just starting) for that phone with a new model out & devs beginning to move on.
Only way you might get it is if you either code it yourself or a dev who personally wants to use this feature puts himself thru the crap of coding it.

Well the sgs3 supports it en a lot of developers have succeeded in running it on other devices such as the archos 9 tablet.
Would it realy be that hard to implement the usb sound driver files into a kernel and rom?
Isnt it a basic alsa driver?

There is an official google thread request on this where you can subscribe.
