Droid has been rooted!

I know. This is the hero forum. But if anyone has a droid or knows someone with one maybe we can get a dump?

Forgot to, post the link
Http://alldroid.org/viewtopic.php?f=210&t=567

awesome! i'd expect you goons to have vanilla 2.0 ready for the mass sprint crowd by tomorrow right? lol isn't a dump all we'd need? pardon for my ignorance but what changes would be made to be compatible to the cdma hero?

Excellent! Now we just need a full rom dump (not just the /system folder which is all that's available right now).

I could use those apk's to build a "fuller" AOSP... that is assuming data can be made to work.

Thats what I'm hoping for. So please everyone who has access to a droif, root it and get a dump for us. Please

I was excited for droid users to find out it had been rooted. Now I am really excited because I didn't even think of the benefits it would bring to us!

Sweet. Post back here if they provide it please. I can only watch so many forums. heh.

So let me get this straight, a full dump from the Droid will help us get 2.0? If so AWESOME! I have a friend who has one, I'm sure he'll be rooting tonight I can get a dump tomorrow if you don't get one sooner.

It's more of a theory than anything. But if we can get their rom booting on our phone then we have a much better chance of getting things working rather than the gsm version we've been hacking up to try and work.
If anyone has access to a rooted droid then let me know. Although it will be much better once they have access to nandroid because pulling these files while the phone is booted up doesn't always work.

I don't think that's true.. our kernel/drivers are way different than theirs.. we will be about the exact same point that we are now, and there are full rips out of the droid now on alldroid.org

I agree but it's a lot easier to make a trackball work, to make leds work, and to make wifi work rather than trying to make it work on a radio that it wasn't designed for.
The image that the guy posted on alldroid is corrupted. It won't unyaffs. And based on the file size I would say it's just a system dump anyways.
Thanks to whitewidow I was able to get my hands on the boot.img by copying it off of /dev/mtd. The build went smoothly however it reboots instantly after the HTC logo. It is never recognized by the debugger. So this is either caused by corruption from how we obtained the boot.img, or the architecture / processor are just too different to work on ours at all. I am not the type that can build kernels from scratch though so maybe someone out there better than me will get it soon.

I'm pretty sure stuff compiled for the OMAP arch. Droid is not going to work in our Qualcomm arch. Heroes. I tried using "chat-ril" executable from Droid on my Hero and that doesn't work at all. OMAP and MSM have their own kernel trees as well, so their kernel probably won't boot on the Hero.

It's OMAP alright.
You wont get any of the normal binaries to run.
You can however grab some apks from it.
There is a dump out already btw, has been for almost a month now.

There has been a system dump yes but we are talking about a full dump including the boot.img file.

Boot image contains nothing useful for our purposes.
If you absolutely have to have the boot image someone posted it over on alldroid.org.

is it possible to get the new lockscreen from newly updated droid as verizon has spreaded 2.01 update for droid? cheers

[Req.] Galaxy S4 Camera apk

Not specific to slim bean, but there are a few things you have to check:
1. Is your ROM odex or deodex. The camera here is the odex version.
2. I think you will have a lot of FC trying some of the features unless you also grab seccamera.jar from the framework.
3. Many times the camera is also tied to the gallery, so you may also need that apk (and all associated files)
If you still want to try to install this and see what happens, you need to open the zip and use a root explorer app to put the two files in the system/app folder. You may also need to fix the permissions after copying. After that, restart the phone and see if it works.
EDIT:
Even with all the extra files I can't get it to work, there are probably other modifications that need to happen before it would work on a different system.
There are quite a few libraries needed (18 libarc*.so and at least 10 others), so it's not an easy port.

So, no one who has the apk for s4 camera yet? I'm on a aosp based rom, but the only "Sammy - feature" I miss is the camera.
Also I have the i9505. Anyone who knows if I can use camera apk. from other s4 models?
Thanks in advance.

The camera (as well as a number of other features such as IR Blaster, temp/humid sensors, etc.) require the touchwiz framework in order to work. This means that they will not work on ANY AOSP roms. This includes, AOKP, CM, Slimbean, etc. They will only work on roms that run a touchwiz framework.
As far as porting goes, it would require a ton of modifications require access to drivers and libraries which samsung has not made available in order to complete a port. Nothing is impossible so I won't go as far as saying it won't be done, but it will be extremely difficult and time consuming so many developers have been discouraged from even attempting this. Only time will tell if we'll ever get these things ported.

Thanks for sharing the your info on this, I won't be sitting around waiting for a port sometime soon then!

5.0.2 Moto X China firmware

I see the China retail firmware for the Moto X (XT1085)was released. It is based off of Android 5.0.2. I assume it has a lot of the regular android features stripped out as it is much smaller then a normal build. If anyone wants to take a look or even try flashing it you can find it here:
http://www.filefactory.com/file/5b4...CN_XT1085_5.0.2_LXE22.92-18_cid11_CFC.xml.zip

Yeah, this is Chinese zip！There is no Google service but it is pretty good in battery ！

No Google services is why it's good on battery

No play services only or no google services at all? I ask because most google apps or even 3rd party apps rely on play services for a lot of stuff. They will simply not work?

Google services be downloaded.

Do you mean that the camera software on this FW is different from the other Moto X 2nd gen variants? And better too?

Try mfastboot.exe(google for me) instead of fastboot.exe. It is the Motorola specific version of fastboot that understands sparsechunks.

Nexus 5x Camera

A reddit user has gotten a hold of a Nexus 5x early, and posted the new Google Camera. I know a lot of people have been interested in getting a hold of the apk to hopefully get it to run on the Nexus 6, so I figured I'd share.
"EDIT 2: Here's the Google Camera apk you've been asking for. I tried to upload to APKMirror but it told me it needs to be non-odexed."
APK:
https://mega.nz/#!F1UTEICL!G1YUhqocuz5IKnViLyCdOPpcOMTgN_-9v_hZ92LkXHQ

Definitely worth a try, or if someone has time to deodex it that might work. I want to play around with it more, but I have to go to work, hopefully someone can get it running by the time I'm done!:good:

would you have to be rooted to push this?

you do realize that its just the google camera? you wont get any new features, as itll only show the features that are actually possible from your phone, just like the play store version. lol.

Wasn't sure if it was like moto camera in the play store, and how its limited to certain devices. I figured it could be a newer version than is currently available to all devices in that regard. The current published version is 2.7.008, the one posted is 3.0.026. It could at least have the updated UI, regardless of features.

Google will release Camera v3 for all devices running L and M, since its their first version to use the new Camera2 API. They could do it next week or it could take months, who knows.

If we're lucky, it'll somehow enable the Nexus 6 to do high-speed video recording as well... since as far as i'm aware, the hardware is capable of it, just no software support yet.
And am i the only one who's annoyed that pictures you take STILL look like crap when zoomed in using Google's Photos app?

why do you use the google photos app? i dont use it. i use the aosp gallery . and its working on marshmallow!

You have a link for where to download the latest version? Or is it in the Play Store as well? I've always used the gallery app before, but I've been running stock Marshmallow since it came out. Kinda waiting for the Slim team to get some 6.0 lovin before I switch back to custom roms.

i was waiting for the camera to be ported but from 6P since its the one with slowmo capability, 5X doesnt!
but still good if we can run this one. gonna wait for success results.

it dose not installed

Request/Suggestion Huawei P10 camera port

Hi, with the "shortcomings" of the essential camera app and the reality that the Google cam gets better images from just the color sensor. I'm wondering if anyone can get a port of the Huawei P10 camera app to make use of both sensors.

If you can find a P10 ROM with the stock camera app, you might be able to pull the apk. See if it installs and runs without the Huawei framework.

Also needs a stock boot.img, which means we need a system dump. Which should come, because Essential was pretty clear about being dev-friendly, but I'm gonna predict it comes in late September at the earliest after they've gotten past the launch problems.

I'm really hoping they stay true to their word. I think if they prove to not be very dev friendly that'd be the only thing to make me regret my purchase. As of right now I'm enjoying the phone but dying for some themes

I think we might have better luck with the OnePlus 5 Camera2.apk. It installs and works (except for Pro Mode). The quality doesn't seem quite as good as the GoogleCam mod, but it might be a decent starting point since the OP5 has dual cameras.

I couldn't get that apk to install - my phone asked me what app I wanted to open the file with and package installer wasn't in the list. Plague Inc was though, of all things

I would like to see a P10 port too but I guess we will have to wait for now. I don't think theres anything to gain from the oneplus 5 app as while it might be dual sensor the setup is not the same. The OP5 has two colour sensors one high mega pixel telephone so offer cleaner zoom and depth. The huawei p10 has a setup closers to the PH-1 combining a colour and monochrome image.

The Essential cam app is never going to do well if they can't figure out why it's compressing the images. Gcam works great.
