Root [ROM][WIP] CyanogenMod 7 | Android 2.3.5 | Last Version: CM7-Triumph-09182011 (discontinued)

No, it was plugged into the USB cable and was fully charged - the flicker is the "beat" between the camera and the modulation frequency (apparently the Triumph likes 60Hz, eh? Didn't know that - it was actually on solid.) I was running a logcat on it while doing that so I could see the state of the radio. As near as I can tell lights work fine on the CM7 build.
 
Isaac, drop me a PM with an email address if you're interested in the changes I made to get where I am now.... it's not a lot but if you haven't already gotten here it'll probably help. I'm working on it this weekend on and off as well.
 
Hey guys,

Just wanted to stop by and say I'm not MIA. Just started school and getting settled in.

I'll be doing some Triumph stuff this weekend. I'll keep y'all posted.

I can certainly understand the whole school thing. My masters degree stuff is starting back up on my end as well and any sort of school work can be a drain on time.

Hey,

You're making great progress. I've been able to make and receive phone calls, but no SMS. Obviously, I can't really test the calls because there's no sound :(

If you could start pushing your work up to Github, that would be very helpful. I sent you a message on Github with an email addy. I'd like to colloborate with you.

GOT IT!!!!!

No data yet but I now have FULLY OPERATIONAL radio service in BOTH DIRECTIONS. I don't know why the data is not coming up - the status coming back says it IS available, and that's properly reflected in the status screen too. It's not starting though.

Ok, data and audio and we have the majority of the feature set working. Going to survey the rest of the landscape here before proceeding and start to build a list of what's broken.
 
Hey I just flashed the latest version of this Tom and I must say, great great work Issac! What you have working so far is fantastic. The stock rom isn't even close to this. Can't wait for it to be complete. Keep it up man we'll all be waiting for the final version!
 
I am really new to this so to download the latest version of cyanogen, I download the link on the first page of the thread and save it to my sd card and rename it update.zip and then go it into cwm and apply update.zip?
 
Current things I know work and are broken in the code as I have it right now:

Works:
Bluetooth (will pair and connect, but since audio is broken is worthless at present.)
Wifi (works; pushed the market on the phone, was able to download other things.)
Cell radio ex data (voice and SMS function, data does not come up although it shows available in the status) Does not come up automatically though - despite what should fix that, it doesn't. Investigating the reason for that (it's a mode problem in the device directory and thus needs an "adb" poke to turn it on once booted. The expected command in the init file does nothing.)
Illumination sensor (Lux) - auto-brightness SHOULD work as I can poll the lux sensor but it doesn't.
Status LED - partial. Red/Green charge state works, notification locks the phone at present and/or causes a crash and worse, erases battery charge state and causes an immediate power-loop! That desperately needs work!

Does NOT work:
Sensors (compass, inclination/accel and GPS)
Audio (dsp manager blows up on init)
Camera (at all)


That's where we are right now.

Tanner, as of right now the file you have a link to is several revisions back. I do not at present have a public file available to be flashed - it's not usable at all at present even as a phone, and won't be until we get the audio working. The existing binary also has NO applications in it - including the market and Google's account add components, so it's literally impossible without using the debugging tools to do anything with this other than look at it and say "oh yeah, it boots."

Either I or Isaac will start posting incremental loads once we have at least basic phone functionality going. Right now the code is limping rather than walking, so other than curiosity there's no real reason to load it.
 
ive been following this thread for a while now and im interested in possibly helping. however by no means am i a dev and i only no basic programming. this being said im willing to learn/ try to figure shit out... my question is where do i start?

Yes but make sure you do your back up before anything else
 
Yeah, first step for anyone who wants to play with this stuff is DEFINITELY to make sure you have a good Nandroid backup through Clockwork. If you don't you're going to be borked, as the code is absolutely unusable as it sits right now in my local copy of the codebase for anything other than sending and receiving text messages!

iM WITH THIS GUY. i HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING AND READING AND FEEL USLESS JUST SITTING HERE ON THE SIDELINES. i WANT TO DO SOMETHING. iM NOT A PROGRAMMER BUT AM DEFINITLY SAVVY WHEN IT COMES TO COMPUTERS AND PHONES. WHAT CAN I DO?
 
i followed the thread isaac posted about building it from source but when i tried to but when i tried to add the partner repository i recieved a bunch of errors..
 
I finally got it to build on mine. I went back and noticed I missed some of the components for my 64bit machine. Once they get to workable form and have everything in the repo I`ll probably sync up and build it again just for practice sake.
 
OK, I know why data is not running. That I should be able to fix - maybe. Yet another undocumented thing here..... yuck.
 
Tickler guy do u think after u get data working you can give us a new build to use for now. I dont use my phone much so audio wouldnt bother right now and id love to give 2.3.5 a try please!
 
Yeah, once I figure this latest nasty out. This one is kinda ugly - the phone isn't seeing the MDN and MID right now, and until it does data won't come up - it thinks it's unprovisioned. The same routine is what pulls the PRL number in the original code, and it's another one of the fun undocumented ones. This could be a bit of a bitch.
 
Yes. I only have one of these phones and I use it, so when I'm not hacking on it I'm running 2.2.

Just make damn sure you make a Nandroid with Clockwork and restore it so you know the checksums are good. Provided you have that it's a piece of cake to swap back and everything is exactly as it was.

If you don't then you're looking for the stock one here and everything you have loaded is GONE, exactly as if you did a factory reset!
