[Q] Honeycomb was ported to Armv6 blade. What about ICS?

Hi there,I'm trying to port the SDK dump to my LG P500,which has the same specs like ZTE Blade.
After applying normal methods for making other phones' roms boot and a special patch found here it doesn't even give logcat,so bootloops in recovery.
After doing some research,I discovered that libs are built for armv7,which we don't have. But also Honeycomb SDK libs were built from armv7,but we got it working on both LG P500 and ZTE Blade.
So,any ideas? Just asking

I think honeycomb and below was build from armeabi (To run on the old simulator that was armv6 vfp (but the vfp wasn't used by google).
whereas ics was built for armeabi-v7a
That is certainly implied by the AVD manager anyway.

Thank you for replying

usually only kernel have ARM text and other also init.rc have kernel text if editing them to ARMv6 kernel text then it needs to work in ARMv6 device..
If not, then some files needs editing...
Android 4.0 ICS needs new EGL and hw files which needs to be ARMv6= ZTE Blade/other phone! all phones have own files to work fine!
If someone can edit Android 4.0 libGLES*.so, libEGL.so files and then egl folder files needs editing.. and then hw folder files for Screen, sensors, GPS, Audio, etc.
then them need right files to get work the audio, camera, WiFi...
WiFi files can work if you add older Android OS WiFi files: libhardware-legacy.so or what it is and then right WiFi files to /System/etc/
to get all to work it maybe takes many days and for me more than 9 months because I'm only 14! xD
SDK port is maybe not really good, it's better to port from other device ex: Samsung... then some files works without editing...

manumanfred the sdk was compiled for ARMv7, it's a different cpu, different machine code. It needs recompiling, to be able to do that you need the source code to compile it.
Without source code you're about as likely to get ICS running on your Blade as you are to get your PS3 running Windows 7.
When devices with ICS are available source code will be too, so porting it from another device would be a waste of time.

ICS on the Blade is booting!
But that's all it does
I used this ROM and replaced boot.img with CM N257. In the honeycomb port they fixed the flipped screen with patching libsurfaceflinger.so on offset 1AC90 but that does not work on ICS. Launcher FC's on first boot but does not after reboot.

Could you please upload that booting rom? I tried it and it won't even install. Even if nothing works, I would like to try several things on that to see if I can fix it, so if you upload it I would be very thankful

So correct me if im wrong, but you got ics booting on blade by using the g2 rom and boot.img from CM7 Latest nightly?
If so maybe start a new thread to track progress.

I just tried it 10mins ago, it installs fine does not boot at all, no logcat output... Wonder if he/made any tweaks elsewhere.
I have a O1 somewhere might dig it out, and have a look

I got it booting! Screen is fliped, touchscreen doesn't seem to work at all and I couldn't test anything else because I can't press OK on the first tutorial screen, but it may be something to start with!
I'm uploading it right now, but I think it will take a while as my connection isn't working very well right now, but I'll post the link as soon as it's finished.
EDIT: OK. You'll have to be patient. Apparently, my 20 MB symmetric shared connection doesn't want to upload faster than 50 KB/s. It's always like this in the afternoon: too many people using it LOL. Hopefully it will be uploaded in 25 minutes or so.

OK, fixed flipped screen & resolution. Thanks to smg22rus for the modified libsurfaceflinger.so.
Flashable ROM (for devs only!) can be found here
If you fix something, just post what you did to get it fixed, do not upload the whole ROM again.
That way, this thread stays clean & we have only one ICS ROM (not 10 different ones).

This are initial release so it is bit laggy, it will take a bit long to behave like 4.1.2.
Have you tried xylon rom, i think by far it is most smoothest 4.2.2 rom, with not much bug or lag.

if your looking for 4.2.2 then xylon rom is good with both data and wifi, try to increase you partition size.
If your happy with 4.1.2 then undoubtely tytung nexushd2 4.12 is best rom. smooth as butter and very responsive and consistent.

AW: Finally JB 4.2.2 with wifi.
You say it. Im on tytung Rom 4.1.2 1.4a at the Moment. For me its a best ROM for daily usage.

CM 10.2.1 has been branched and released, officially ending our planned release process for Jellybean (Android 4.3) code. Included in the release are various devices that did not see a 10.2.0 build, such as the Droid RAZR HD, Photon Q, Nexus Q, Nook, Nook HD & HD+ and more. Downloads can be reached via our download portal using the following link.
This release does not bring a wealth of new features on top of 10.2.0, but instead focuses on bug fixes, APN updates, localization (translations), and some back port of code (and fixes) from CM11 (Android 4.4 Kitkat).
For those interested in a list of changes, feel free to browse our Gerrit for 10.2 mergers between December 2nd, 2013 and January 31st, 2014. To those who prefer to build your own releases, the 10.2.1 code can be found under the branch name ‘stable/cm-10.2′on our Github.

Hey people,
here's an alternate kernel for CM10.2 compiled from original CM sources, except following changes originally done by cn.fyodor:
- raise the max surfaceflinger FPS up to about 65~68
- make the Vsync thread more favorable for Android system
- squeeze a bit memories to userspace from the Kernel
This kernel should give a smoother UI experience. Klusark mentioned that raising FPS might break some apps. I didn't have any problems yet, but i guess this could happen for some games. Please report back here, if you find any problems. I agree with Klusark to not cut some more memory from 'camera space' to ensure all camera/video functions are working. However, if you like have a try, and tell me what you think.
Flash as usual via recovery. DO NOT wipe anything before and DO A BACKUP FIRST !!!

I've been using it for an hour and there is no issues with the apps I use at least.
p.s. why is this not in the development section?

i can't open market or something with wi-fi and some times had camera problem not so much.

Victory! Downloading and will post impressions later on. Will try a dirty flash and see what happens

@maintainers of crespo device:
Just had a look at changelog...
IMHO you should re-enable system property 'ro.sys.fw.bg_apps_limit' in crespo build because it's very useful on low memory devices. So revert the 'revert' patch ( ) http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/48640/

focal just once worked for me when i open the normal camera first.

Been testing for almost five hours. Had all my user apps from 4.2 installed on the ROM. I have to admit the ROM is pretty smooth compared to 4.2.2. The only bug I noticed is the FC when switching from primary cam to secondary(back) cam and back to primary cam again. Also, data connection upstream and downstream arrows don't show up on the signal bars when enabling 3G.

Yes, cameras are a bit buggy.

Anyone using Nova Launcher? Is it getting killed a lot? Like after going back from any app?

Focal and camera not working for me.
Also, cant redefine the lockscreen shortcuts.

Downloading.. :good::good:

[VIDEO] Kiktat update canceled due apps implement.... WHAT?

Hello XDA community!
As you know, Sammobile announced that I9300 won't get official Kitkat update from Samsung. You can get more information from there;
http://www.sammobile.com/2014/05/07/heres-a-list-of-samsung-devices-getting-the-android-4-4-kitkat-update/
But Samsung released official Kitkat update for International Note 2 (N7100) from OTA. Almost everyone believed in this update is canceled because of low RAM. I did not believe it. So, I started to work to boot N7100XXUFND3 on I9300.
The ROM is about 1.8 GB, we have 1.5 GB partition size for system. There is no way to boot on NAND without partition eMMC. I partitioned my 16GB sdcard and install the ROM to sdcard. I changed the kernel from I9300XXUGNB6. And it booted.
It's running pretty smooth even running on sdcard. Of course it crashes sometimes, but not a big deal. The most important things are not working too (like RIL, WiFi)
Here's a video of demonstration;
Here's RAM usage;
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3U72O5ZZ8z-YmJ6UWlMRmtGZmc/edit?usp=sharing
So, What's your opinion about canceling update?

Only commercials, if they update an with years old phone they don't sell more s4 and s5

Great job brother but huge disappointment as Google stated that kk can work on devices lower than 512mb of ram easily yet Samsung cancelled it due to ram limitations not genuine reason possibly they would bring a update in the near future neglecting a flagship device is seriously awful!
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk

Well have kitkat, believe me. If you do the same with the KitKat update for the GT-I9305 instead of the Note2 firmware it will be better. Wifi will work, and RIL most probably too after some little changes.
I will try my best to port the upcoming GT-I9305 KitKat update to the GT-I9305. If you could tell me what you have done in order to port the firmware, that would be awesome! Maybe we can team up and start porting as soon as the update is available?
BTW: Why havent you debloated the rom to shrink it a bit? Removing all unnessesary apps from /system/app and /priv-app could make it smaller than 1,5GB

-If Samsung release Kitkat for GT-I9305, I'll do my best for porting it to I9300 too.
-I don't want to remove any apk for testing RAM usage (reason of cancelling)
-I changed only kernel, and it booted.
-We can make a team for porting of course, why not?

Ahh that makes sense amd im happynto hear that you want to team up! In the past i have ported several things and i think that we can do it together! The only thinh i worry about is the RIL. Lets hope samsung releases the S3 LTE firmware soon so we can start working on it.
Also a thing with the S3 LTE is that it has a different partition layout. We must take care of that and be very carefull in what we do. Unlike the note2 we cant just flash it and see what happens.

Note 2 has a different partitio layout too.

as a normal user, I'm going to hope that Samsung leaks GS3 KitKat Drivers, Kernel and sth like that.. And if they do, it may help you developers.
Thanks for trying to help all of us Kitkat wanters

Sam**** will definetly not release any Kernel source without releasing a rom along with it. Thats for sure. But we can take stuff from GT-i9305 and Note2 so were good for the next time....atleast till the next major Android version.
Gesendet von meinem GT-I9300 mit Tapatalk 2

A few thoughts:
-RIL: I guess the baseband is loading modem FW from NAND even when booting from SD card. Could also be an EFS issue.
-WiFi is probably Knox interfering with module loading, as seen on the I9305.
-Storage is a consequence of booting from SD card.
-Sensors are either a HW mismatch between S3 and NoteII, or a failure to mount the Firmware partition.
Try to debloat and flash on NAND.

forumber2 can you post here your rom here so somebody can debloat it or help you with it ???

Ok. So let get this straight. what you actually did is that you modified build.prop (someone posted once here how it should look) and replaced the boot. (bin, I guess) with a stock kernle from S3, right ? And you installed it on the SD card because you needed more space ? If this is right, then please upload the ROM here, and I will debloat it for you
I will still try to do this. Also, the build.prop was uploaded on XDA with the news that S3 won't receive official KK. I will remove some Google stuff and then let the flash begin

Nope, the video is legit. Look at the lockscreen and the settings app. Baseband version is also unknown, which is a sign that this is a legit port.
P.S: What are you gonna do with this rom? Its useless...WiFi and RIL doesnt work...

I didn't said it is not legit. in fact, I wanted to know what to do to use it myself And I would probably end just by testing it for few hours, probably testing some random modems / (restoring EFS :-? ). And @henrylife , who is porting the S5 ROM said that every 4.3 kernel works on that, so... probably ending dual-booting it. Found on Note II's thread even ROMs with like 600-700MB.

A few thoughts:
-RIL: I guess the baseband is loading modem FW from NAND even when booting from SD card. Could also be an EFS issue.
-WiFi is probably Knox interfering with module loading, as seen on the I9305.
-Storage is a consequence of booting from SD card.
-Sensors are either a HW mismatch between S3 and NoteII, or a failure to mount the Firmware partition.
Try to debloat and flash on NAND.

-RIL: I think I just need to change RIL blobs tp get it work. It's easy
-WiFi: Maybe KNOX, maybe WiFi modules (dhd.ko) causes the problem. We should try
-Storage: The storage problem isn't causing by booting from sdcard, I tried boot from sdcard with CM11 and I9300XXUGNB6. Those had not any problems about storage. I think I need to change mount commands in ramdisk.
-Sensors: Android Sensor Service is updated in Kitkat. So, we need newer sensor driver of I9300. Maybe we can use CM11 opensource driver.

Ok. So let get this straight. what you actually did is that you modified build.prop (someone posted once here how it should look) and replaced the boot. (bin, I guess) with a stock kernle from S3, right ? And you installed it on the SD card because you needed more space ? If this is right, then please upload the ROM here, and I will debloat it for you
I will still try to do this. Also, the build.prop was uploaded on XDA with the news that S3 won't receive official KK. I will remove some Google stuff and then let the flash begin

I didn't change anything in /system partition. I changed only boot.img. I can't upload it, but if you want to play with this, you can download the ROM from sammobile or samsung-updates.

I'm not gonna contiune to port Note 2 firmware. If Samsung will release Kitkat for I9300, I'll do my best

The Sensor driver should be easy, we can take blobs from the GT-i9305 Update. BTW: Im going to create a developer port thread this evening..lets see what we can do.

To get storage to Mount 100% you will need to modify the vold. Fstab file. Once done your storage should work correctly. If you need help With RIL let me know via PM. Also i Can help you get these bugs ALL ironed out TODAY. Just PM me thanks.

Also OP this is 100% usable With NAND. Just move some Google apps to /data when flashing And It will Fit perfectly atleast that Way your still able to test ram usage

I am porting note2 kk firmware. I have Also removed Knox from the firmware as It only cause problems for me. Once Im happy Ill release It so you can all test. Please bare With It Im working off my Phone unlimited connection so upload And download are Very slow. Thanks.
This new kk build will be 100% NAND compatible. Thanks.

Do someone have this beta 2 ? or do someone know how to fix Wi-Fi on this Beta 1 " Made socure files for wifi " ?
Here is the link for Beta 1 - https://code.google.com/archive/p/ics-for-x8/downloads

What works/does not? I'm one of the few who still has this incredible phone, and I love it even to this day and running android 4 on it would be awesome The only problem I have with ICS on this phone, is that camera does not work, and I kinda need it to work, both video and photo.

Did you get android 4 on the phone? Is there an android 4 corresponding lineageos version?
Thank you.
