ProjectM (Milkdrop) for Android

So I was searching though Motorola's source code the other day for the Droid X, and I stumbled upon a visualization folder. Looked inside, and to my surprise I see folders labeled as "projectm" Which is the open source port of the beautiful Milkdrop plugin for Winamp on Windows (to my knowledge).
So I dug around a bit, but not being a developer I couldn't figure much out.
Today though I was creating a shortcut to an activity in LP. And I saw "Visualization" category In there there is an activity to start the visualization!
I also finally found where the visualization was originally implemented. I reinstalled Motorola's stock music app, and saw the visualizations there.
So anyways, now that I see the source code is already there, and I am trying to learn android development, I am going to try to get it running as a live wallpaper, and also try to improve on it a bit, as it renders pretty low res, and doesn't seem very optimized.
I am not sure if this is a full port, or just enough to run the few presets Moto included.
But at current I figured I would share with you all how to get the Moto version of this app running Hopefully I can get my standalone version/live wallpaper working soon!
Also, not sure if I can post Moto's apk for those that dont have it. someone let me know.

Screenshot of it running standalone. It reacts to any Media audio.

Dude If you actually get this running as a stand alone for other phones I will help fund your development of this! check my other post been trying to get this done for awhile! so happy you made this post!

Please can you send to me the apk via pm?
i also tried to port it on my acer liquid

Wondering how Development was going? I talked to a Dev named kholk who said he would help me and work on this as well.
The Dev seemed really nice and willing to help said he wanted to do it for free.

It's interesting! And it looks funny
Anyway, if we don't have a Motorola phone we can't use them legally speaking...
...but if you upload them and post them here saying that if you haven't got a moto phone you shouldn't download it... well... not your problems
P.S.: I'm looking into it, but this week I'm not at home. If someone anticipates me, well.. good. Otherwise you have to wait for some days :/

Awesome Man! Take as long as want its awesome someone is actually trying to do this was at the gym the other night thinking about how cool it would be to have some visualizations to look at while doing cardio.

Sorry for the lack of updates recently. It seems the project died before it started for me. I simply dont have the time now. (I just got a bunch more web work to do. Yay!)
The source is of course open via motorola, just download the Droid X motorola source code and its in there.
Good luck to whoever tries to do it! And please keep me posted

interesting................hope you get it ported

would be sure to donate if anyone could get this working... Sorry to see you end development WACOMalt =( hopefuly some other devs will jump on this project like kholk! =) donations will be made who ever can get this thing going. Also would be a first for this app i been searching google for awhile and a lot of people want something like this.

Sorry for double posting just wondering if anyone is still working on this?

OH MY FREAKING GOD!!!!! This has excited the **** out of me!!!
MilkDrop (IMO) is STILL the greatest visualisation ever made - it reacts so well to music and continues to surprise me. I've even started VJing with it (although it is very hard with such a limited VJ console).
I would be very interested in seeing this running on Android (specifically my Desire HD) simply for the gimick. If anyone legitimately thinks that they are capable of porting this please contact me. If you can convince me of your capabilities I will donate some money upfront and continue as development progresses.

Good luck been a few months. I think this project is dead in the water

I did a little reasearch on my Samsung Spica
The Droid X source code is here -> https://opensource.motorola.com/sf/frs/do/listReleases/projects.droidx/frs.droidx_source_froyo
The source of visualisations is on the 4th page of files -> https://opensource.motorola.com/sf/...roidx_source_froyo.shado_x6_2_3_15?_pagenum=4 in motorola_external_visualization.tar.gz
I dont know how to compile it, so I tried another method. I've found Droix X rom on XDA -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=786541 and I copied all files, that I thaught, have something to do with visualisations. Now I can create a shortcut via Activities in my launcher to com.android.music.VisualisationMPDisplay , com.android.music.VisualisationMPSetings, com.mototola.visualisation.VisualisationDisplay but none of them works. When I try to load Visualisations app, it loads, and then returns to launcher.
I dont know what to do next, here are my files which I copied to my /system/ partition
http://www.mediafire.com/?d23orectf78jr5u
Maybe they dont work, because Spica has ARMv6 cpu, and Droid X ARMv7 (?)
here is logcat showing the moment of launching the com.android.music.VisualisationMPDisplay shortcut: http://pastebin.com/acAv0fck What's wrong?
Hope someone can fix it

I tried doing what your doing it semi bricked my G2 deff want to see more done with this!

this would be awesome on tablets, is there any development ?
thanks

haven't heard anything from any buddy in along time

Wow! This NEEDS to get some attention! I'll try linking some people/devs here! Everyone do the same for their handsets!

I really hope you have more luck then I have had its been so hard to get anyone to look at this and get it working would be amazing if a dev could do it... back when I had money offered donations to devs that could get milkdrop working... no go =/

Well, from what I can gather (from this thread and the few others related to it - just putting it here so others can see it quickly) It looks like it's not so much the Milkdrop files that are the issue, but rather the Music.apk thats needed to run it.
It looks like Milkdrop in and of itself can be just dumped in, but the Music.apk from the Droid X relies on a framework we don't have - and just dropping that into our phones is obviously a bad idea (bricking).
So someone would have to find a way to patch/mod the Droid X Music.apk file to run on our phones for this work.

I've just been PM'd by an apparent DEV who is interested in porting this project. Their username is: AerialX. But supposedly can't post on any forums because of a techincal forum issue.
I can't believe this project may may be getting underway!

Trolls and the ungrateful

One thing I have enjoyed here in this forum is it is much friendlier and less flaming than the evolution 3d forum I came from, and still is so far.
I have read a few things that disappointed me greatly I would like to mention .
Guys, think before you bash a persons work. Whether it's a theme, ROM, or some mod these people put in hard work and time for free and our benefit! It may not be perfect or what you personally like but that's not the point. If I was doing things for friends I've never met or a forum I would stop after some of the crap I've read.
Guys, please keep this place supportive and friendly. We were all noobs once and didn't know much except how to turn on the phone.
Anyway, respect each other and the work posted here. Bashing doesn't promote anything and doesn't encourage anyone to keep going .
And it's FREE!
Ok, group hug . J/k

It has become worse over the years. Sadly.
Still it's a small group who messes it up for the rest.
I have however, also seen someone who thinks he's a "developer", say snobby stuff to noobs. Like he was better then them.
This is much worse imho.

I agree. It goes both ways and there will always be the ones who's sole purpose is to troll and flame. I just can't imagine knocking someones hard work when they are giving it away. And I will never understand flaming a noob for asking a question. We were all there once. Hopefully this forum will stay above the fray .
Like my mom says about free stuff, "beggers can't be choosers"

I completely second what OP said,most of my PDAs would have been unusable bricks without the support of this great Forum and its intelligent and zealous Devs, starting long back with my Imate PDA2K in 2006, turning my HD2 from unstable device with its officially unsupported OS into one great masterpiece .
I salute all the devs in this forum knowing well that our GNote coupled with their fantastic effort and talent will become an even better device once the official ICS starts rolling out.

[Tribute]XDA Developers | Rom Helper

First of all, I'd like to thank all the developers of the XDA community and especially all people who made Rom-modding even possible.
The mirror effect
You are a 'Probably' a noob
YOU ARE NOT SPECIAL
More Info: Why am I a noob?
The general Idea of XDA!
User:
Getting the hotest, smoothtest and best phone
Developer:
Creating the hotest, smoothtest and best phone
User contribution?:
I am certain that every single Rom that was once out here on XDA had it's on journey and issues to face. Most users of XDA aren't willing to take this journey but they just jump across Rom's as they'd switch there own clothes, just because they saw something better, that 'might' make them look better and even-tough knowing that at some point you can't blame them, 'cause you or me were/are probably the same, I just want to share a thought with you guys.
Appreciation
Do we really appreciate the person behind the Rom? I am sure a certain amount if they ever read this, would just say! YES!, but YOU DON'T. You wouldn't even care or be bothered if the developer of your Rom would pass away or if he or she would have some personal issues affecting the development. THE ONLY THING YOU CARE ABOUT IS YOURSELF
Even I can't deny that, I was an OTA addict like hell, I switched roms like a nut, I flashed modems like a boss and I didn't care about the Rom specifications and I just flashed one Rom after the other, AND I AM NOT SAYING THIS IS WRONG.
I only recommend we should think about, HOW we could return the favor. We should do more then clicking a thanks buttons, who cares about it's thanks rating anyway! We should help them, because they are the ones who can make things possible and we?. We are just the ones that can click a thanks button, but don't give a single damn about any contribution!
[Q] Did you ever donate?
[Q] Did you ever clicked the thanks button, however the advise given didn't solve your problem?
[Q] Did you ever report bugs or were you just to lazy and swithed roms?
[*]How big is your "I" in the XDA Community
Don't be to lazy!, Even YOU can make a difference!​
Help a developer
Take advantage of your ETA update addiction!
If you like to Flash a Rom, try-out mods or just experiment with your phone, put your addiction as yourself to use to a ROM developer, by helping him or her out, to..
Find Bugs
Test a Rom
Review it
...
I am developer
If you are a developer, tell us how your Rom will be different and tell us what you need! We've been calling out to you guys for way too long, it's time to return the favor!

If you have any suggestions or ideas how we could improve this, be my guest, I am going to use my second topic probably as a list, where I'll list all the helpers who are available and who are currently working with developers on some projects
I do hope, that main developers or developers who just started creating there Rom, will use this topic to their own benefit, but we'll see

[Q] CM10 for the Nexus 7?

Is this something that may happen quickly for the N7 as it is stock android, or will the devs need to spend a fair amount of effort prepping it for the N7?

Yeah man - they have a bunch of screen shots on their G+ feed right now. Tablet and phone UI.

CM10 should already compile for the N7 as because it is a Nexus device the vendor (the files used to configure the build) are released in AOSP. See https://android.googlesource.com/device/asus/grouper

I thought that may be the case, but that level of detail is not in my wheelhouse, so thanks for the info!
I wonder how long it will take an enterprising dev to start the "***OFFICIAL*** CM10 For the Nexus 7" thread in the dev forum

I have no doubt I could compile CM10 as it is for the Nexus 7, I don't see any point yet though, there are next to no changes.

Ahh... cool. I have not even messed around with cm9 yet because a full version of it is not supported for my device. I was a big fan of CM7.2 when I was running the RC though.
Thanks for taking the time to answer my question - it's cool when the devs help folks like me out with the easy questions

Cyanogen 10 NIGHTLIES should begin soon.
As far as a release candidate or final, there is absolutely no way to tell but i can pretty much guarantee you looking from CM7 and CM9 that your looking at at least 2-3 months.
ICS was released last November and CM9 has not even hit release candidate yet.

CM9 has hit RC1 . Apparently, it's going to take less time to get things rolling from ICS -> JB as there aren't that many BIG platform changes unlike GB -> ICS.

Looking forward to CM10 or AOKP!

This is what I'm waiting in for. Does anyone know if someone has committed to being the Cm dev for the n7? And if so, I who is it?

A lot of the work of being a 'dev' for a certain device isn't really needed with a Nexus device since Google provides most of the bits that make it difficult to make a custom ROM without.
Also, quite a few devs were at IO and received a free Nexus 7, so I really don't think we're going to be short of devs wanting to get CM working on the device!

yes, but my question is if anyone has stepped up yet. Is there a device maintainer? I'm actually pretty surprised that there isn't a cm10 build floating around for this yet....

Well, it sure looks like someone has stepped up to the plate. I wonder what the next steps are?

So funny story. Right after I got done adding some files to support CM10. I took my Nexus 7 over to my nephews birthday party. I set it down for a second on a table. My sisters dog than ran into it and the N7 took a fall to the patio.
What only looked like a small crack on the screen and the display works fine. The trouble came when I tried to unlock my tablet. The touchscreen no longer works.
So my plee to anyone out there. I am looking for a new N7. I would buy it from Google but they are 3-4 weeks out on shipping the next round. If anyone bought two, or knows of any other stores that may have one in stock let me know. I don't want to be out of the game that long!

That's nemith and he maintained the Nook Color for awhile. Still works with our current maintainer fattire, and those guys are the best.
For real, for real.
I would love to see either of those gentlemen be active in this forum. I still spend more time on the Nook forum than here, and I haven't even turned that device on since the Nexus 7 arrived.
Which makes me feel totally guilty. Something is very wrong with me.

This is the version of android , i would like to run

I cannot post links . Please google Remix os
Ex-Googlers have created REMIX OS ,this is the android , i would like to run rather than BS phone os. If 3 people can do this , it means something is wrong with google.

damn if we could flash that on the nexus 9 that would be siiiick

my first impression is .... surface on android. 2GB ram makes me wonder though.

would be sweet if they sold (or gave it away) it as a separate OS so we could run it on any hardware.

Looks like Kickstarter is up...
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1123481999/remix-a-laptop-experience-on-a-big-android-tablet

I don't know how, but I was lucky enough to snag one of the $39 units. Looking forward to playing around with it.

Nice score ?

So what you really want, is multi-window Android, and a launcher capable of showing running applications.
There are a number of 'hack' implementations of this idea, samsung has one, omnirom was working on one last year (haven't heard anything about it in a while), there is this "remix"... there is evidence that google themselves are working on it, but they are taking a more careful approach to it as the hardware Android runs on grows to make this feature more relevant. I sure can't see the use of it on a phone or TV, but a large tablet could benefit from it greatly, or a laptop.
For example, this commit to the Android window manager mentions multi-window: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/baf6bef001a582fea275bf891294cf1fe9d5472e

The main thing I want is the multi window. I've gone back to my gn10.1 2014 for working out b/c constantly switching b/t google music and jefit was kinda getting on my nerves. Downside is that the gn10.1 speakers suck compared to the n9. Luckily best buy has the charge 2 on sale. almost got the UE but it seemed a but to trebley for my tastes, sounded clean though.

looks good. have nexus 9 with keyboard so the Remix OS would be cool on the Nexus 9.
No android 5.1.. no good multitasking.. supported kickstartar $1.

(If you haven't known about this yet)
You can now pledge $1 and get early access to Remix OS ROM for Nexus 9.

Edit: I've also backed this up... with $1 lol

Well I'm backing this up and really looking forward to it...

This Rom is a bist, possibly doa. No customization, they have it locked down, no widgets, no app drawer and it has battery issues. Hopefully someone at xda gets a copy and can make it better than jide.

Are the battery issues possibly not ROM related, but device? Curious how this will run on the n9. (If you mean you are using the RemixOS on the actual Jide tablet that is)

I have the tablet and it's a 8500 battery. I believe it's a software issue. They have a way to go on software development to make this a daily driver.

Anyone received the ROM for nexus 9? I haven't received any.

They only said May, but right now Jide is likely occupied with fixing their Ultra Tablet. Users are having bugs, and I can't imagine the $1 tier is a priority.
