@SoUnd001 @EsromG5 @Koloses Can someone tell me why the new adreno 306 drivers by Bulgaricus have been deleted? Can I flash them or better not?

I dont know about that, but here you can find other adreno 306 blobs. Dunno if are same, but its been there before the ones posted by Bulgaricus.
You have to download that repo and take the files which you see in that commit, place them in the correct folders and set correct permissions.
In past ive made a flashable zip with those from Koloses, but i dont have it anymore.

I'd like to see the config file too just so I can go browse thru the kernel source code myself.
Its nice to see the support for developers for this device. Takes 30 seconds to pull a config and the only response is someone with a sarcastic post based on a stereotype of Americans.
Sent from my HTC Vision
I hear you. I was sincere though in my interest. I really wanna see the config file.
If the lack of a config is from a lack of knowledge you pull the config file by typing this into terminal:
Su
Cp /proc/config.gz /sdcard/config.gz
Then upload the file here

Attached is a copy of my .config from building the KDD kernel from Samsung's sources. AFAIK that is identical to what Samsung used to build the stock kernel on device.

kind of a noob question, but how exactly would one know which of each file of the source code to include to compile your own ROM/kernel? guess my question really is, looking thru kernel source, how can i know if any random file is or is not part of the kernel? example looking thru battery drivers, i can see the max17042 and fuelgauge_sec is used, while other batt drivers are not used but still present. how does one able to figure this out for each folder etc?

I know that there are actually LOTS of "How to port ROMS" in this forum now.. but I would like to share a certain source I found that is actually fool proof
Here it goes!
find a ROM that is designed for the same CPU type and the same phone manufacturer. Any stock Gingerbread, ICS, or CyanogenMod 7/9 ROM should work, but you’ll have to make sure your phone can handle the ROM – no ICS for an HTC Hero, for example. Also, your Port ROM's original Phone should have the same RESOLUTION with that of your phone's.
You will need:
**Notepad++
**a compression program (WinZip or 7zip and etc)
**the ROM you want to port to your phone (let’s call it the "Port ROM")
**a ROM designed for your phone (let’s call it"Base ROM")
Click to expand...

This guide may mention some files or directories that aren’t present in your particular ROM; don’t worry, just carry on.
On your PC, extract the .ZIP files containing the two ROMs, and navigate to /system/app in your extracted Port ROM and copy stk.apk, vpnservices.apk, camera.apk, and bluetooth.apk into a temporary directory somewhere else on your PC.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now, delete the following folders from your Port ROM and replace them with the ones from your Base ROM: /data, /system/app, /system/framework, /system/fonts and /system/media.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
From your Base ROM, copy /system/lib/libandroid_runtime.so to the system/lib/ directory of your Port ROM, overwriting the file.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Next up, move the .APKs you copied earlier back into the /system/app directory of your Port ROM.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Open up /system/lib in your Port ROM and copy all the files and folders. Paste them into the Base’s /system/lib directory, replacing all. Then go back to the Port ROM and delete the /system/lib folder, and replace it with the /system/lib folder from the Base ROM.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Next, navigate to the /system/etc/init.d folder in the Port ROM and do the same copy-from-Port, paste-to-Base, delete-from-Port, copy-from-Base, paste-to-Port shuffle as before.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Navigate to /system/etc/permissions and do that same copy-paste dance one more time.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
open system/build.prop from both the port and the base ROM in Notepad++. Update the Base build.prop to match the values for “ro.build.description=” and “ro.build.fingerprint=” from your Port. Now save the Base build.prop, exit Notepad++, and copy the Base build.prop into the Port ROM, overwriting the Port build.prop.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
In Notepad++, open \META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script from both your base and port ROMs. Edit the Port’s script to be like the Base’s updater-script: specifically, change, edit, or add the sections for permissions, ui_prints, asserts, run_programs, and installing the kernel. Don’t change any of the symlinks. In the Port script, make sure that the ‘format’ values are appropriate for your device (compare them to the Base script).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Finally, make sure that your kernel is specifically for your device.

Now, if you desire, you can update any apps you require, or add any tools like BusyBox or SuperSU.
And that’s it! Your base ROM is now ready to be zipped and installed on your device via Clockwork Mod!

Well that is to ensure "safety" when porting a ROM.. the guide i posted was a beginner's guide on how to port.. as you can see, almost 80% of the procedure is just basically copy&paste..
however, if you have a good background now in codes and porting things, i believe you may not follow step-by-step the procedures i stated above.

What about dual Sim ph?
Does anyone have any idea what would cause a "Modem Crashed Forced Upload Mode" on a port for SGS3?
I can't seem to pinpoint what causes that (I think it's a kernel panic but I could be wrong)
Looks like this would work on International Note 2 and Tmobile Note 2. They have the exact same hardware and everything. I was wondering about the last statement about kernel. Can't I just copy the boot.img from tmobile note 2 to international note 2 ? would that work ? I am not familiar with kernels and stuff. Need advice.
Thanks
Hey guys,
Im trying to port a I9505 rom to my I9515 but one of the main problems is that the touchscreen doesn't work when you flash I9505 roms on the I9515. So I went looking for the touchscreen drivers in a stock rom but I just can't find them. So do you guys have any idea where the touchscreen drivers are located?
Thanks.
Not 100% but I think I they are in the kernel...broodplank created a high sensitivity touch app (glove mode)...he could help
Thanks for your reply!
I extracted the boot.img using kitchen and there is one folder containing some other folders and files wich I searched but I found nothing and theres the zImage. Could it be possible that the zImage contains the drivers?
According to a page I found with google it should be a file ending with .ko
Do you have any idea where the .ko files are located?
Thanks!
As far as I know, .ko files are modules so they will be in the zimage

The signature reflects the specific models I purchased and the amount of ram/rom they had. As such it appears accurate to me.
it's 16 GB and 32 GB, if it was MB you wouldn't even install anything
How do you install this?

The short answer, and it's not intended to be ugly, is that if you have to ask it's not a file you should be installing.
It's easier to get it from the system updater....this is primarily intended for folks doing rom work or want to extract the patches to see what might be applied to the other models. It could be sideloaded via twrp for the specific firmware/model listed if they needed to for a particular reason.

@purple.epod and others....I'm uploading an unrooted system image with boot (we need the kernel to match the system) to mega and will post the url when it completes tomorrow sometime.

Le Eco's open source site doesn't has anything now? Is that where the sources were announced? Also, is this really x526's source?

The source code were shown on the list with download link and particular model no. Of the phone. It's not there anymore. LeEco removed it for some reasons. It's strange, and I got this Google drive link from another XDA member's (Lakku) thread. He mentioned it's for x526. Thanks to him. This seems to only working link now
Edit: The above link I posted here seems to be working now

That's how it was there on the LeEco open source website. But unfortunately they have removed the links from the website.
The link was given with x526 name and when I opened, It showed leS3 folder.
More info any developer working on this sources can give us. Will have to wait.
Hello Friends.
I am a professional kernel developer and programmer.
Many of you would already know me from these forums.
And i would like to inform this to all of you.
I think i know why LeEco took down all the kernels from their website.
Before they took it down, i downloaded all the phone's sources from there.
Then i compiled the le2 x526 kernel using my ubuntu 16.04 fully setup for compilation PC.
Then i got the Kernel Image file as output.
But thats nothing, even buggy non-working kernels cab give a successful output. Any good developer should know this. It all depends on if it boots or not.....
So i didnt rejoice just there. I went ahead and i began to test it.
So i connected my rooted bootloader unlocked le2 x526 to my ubuntu and opened a root terminal and used this command to boot the Kernel Image:
fastboot boot Image
But the just rebooted and just kept being there. It didn't show anything. The screen was blank, black and the notification led was glowing in red. No vibration nothing. It was like if i flashed a corrupt kernel...
But i didnt just give up hope there.
I unpacked the stock rom boot image and replaced the kernel with my custom kernel build from LeEco's source. And repacked it and booted it using this fastboot command:
fastboot boot Boot.img
But still it was not working
So guys now i am completely 100℅ Sure that the sources provided by LeEco is a non-working one and that is the reason why LeEco took down all sources from their page...........
So now once again waiting for the proper working sources......
