Root [Boost Mobile] [RELEASE] Clockworkmod 5.0.2.7-Beta2 For warp Released today

For some reason it won't flash to one of my Warps. It wouldn't flash to either till I realized there is no "rocovery" partition in the ZTE Warp :)
 
I still can't flash CWM to one of my Warps. I'll show you what happened.

Any ideas what I did wrong?

As to the error, I really dont know whats wrong... It could be the toolchain being used, try downloading the cm7 source... it comes with it's own toolchains you could use for both compiling the kernel and cm7
Click to expand...

which source with the appropriate toolchain would I download? I saw many links in the download page for it but im not sure which one
 
I seem to be having an issue while in recovery.
It will not mount the SD card while in recovery and therefore I can not flash any .zip's nor can I create any nandroid backups.
 
When I tried hroark's tutorial for building cm7 upon mka -j5 bacon I get this: http://pastebin.com/gFs2pkk8

--EDIT--

After installing EVERYTHING missing, I get this REAAAAALY big output with a lot of warnings: http://www.pasteall.org/29166 (because its too big for pastebin :p )

Also, I made a folder called warp in /cm7/device/zte and put your cm_cm7_config in there as that fixed some problems I was getting with lunch (not finding full_warp)

edit 2: I posted this on the cyanogen mod forums so that I might be able to get help there as well

I re-did the compilation and I get another error this time: http://pastebin.com/RJJGPD2f

I don't know if PLATFORM_VERSION=2.3.7 has anything to do with it or not..
 
I am ABOUT to give up, its just one missing lib after another and it doesn't stop. If I do decide to give up, I WILL first reinstall EVERYTHING and try again from a clean slate because I'm getting some nasty errors that I think are screwing something up some where. I will only start from a clean slate when I have absolutely no other option and I cannot utilize google anymore. I am still able to explore some more things at this point, but its getting slim without specific help from anyone from the great communities out there which I can't seem to get help from.

THIS IS A S.O.S SIGNAL!

Can I please have some encouragement, guys? :)

edit: I'm reinstalling from scratch. I eff'd up my environment a bit and I don't think I did everything right. I am getting some unfixable warnings from package manager, search every ends of the internet for answers to these problems, and there is even a package that cant be installed because it cant even be found even through its marked as installed and broken.. I must start from square 1.
 
Snake x I am very grateful you r doing this I look on here a lot see if someone made a rom for the phone I came from the prevail and was hoping that this phone be better so I hope you can get it to work
 
I'm certainly not one to give up easily but I'm lacking motivation more and more as I progress so any good comments will help :)
 
Snake, I'm extremely pleased to see you're working to get cm7 up and running. I have some interest in working in android coding, but i am completely new to the game.
 
well here's a tip of advice: do ***NOT*** upgrade python. the built in version works whereas if you update it it breaks a library I think or something. Also, know your way around terminal. that will be your main tool
 
Well I'll just be the one to out it I won't be the one probably to get it actually functional. I dont think that I know enough yet to do that kind of stuff. Idk, I'll see when it comes time :)
 
You're making progress still. That deserves something!

There is an awesome forum called Unleashed Prepaids, formerly Prepaid Androids. They mainly support Metro PCS and Cricket but Boost has stepped their game up and they may consider supporting it. A lot of good devs hang out there and from what remember they are all very nice and are willing to help aspiring devs :)
 
Libraries oh libraries how you hurt me
for every one there's a missing dependency
Libraries oh libraries how you cause me despair
for there's always that one that I can never repair

^ About how im feeling right now.. :p

wait.. wtf I hate poetry lol

Hello all,

First of all, thanks to all for all their hard work on this! I haven't tried it on my phone (yet), but am thankful for all of those who are paving the way for the rest of us!

That said, I'm NOT a dev by any means, but thought I'd see if I could get CM to build correctly given QuietStorm1785's hard work. After a bunch of trial and error and using various guides, I finally got it to build the cm-nightly-signed.zip file. I have no idea if it will work on the phone, and will likely be of no help if it doesn't, but I did want to pass along some lessons learned.

The final build did not go smoothly out of the box. (specifically the 'mka -j4 bacon' command) The build process kept failing with errors like the below:

make: *** No rule to make target `out/target/product/warp/obj/lib/libaudio.so', needed by `out/target/product/warp/obj/SHARED_LIBRARIES/libaudioflinger_intermediates/LINKED/libaudioflinger.so'. Stop.

Note each error references 2 files in 2 locations (in red) and ends with the word "Stop". Looking at the paths specified, it was apparent the files specified did not exist. I tried manually copying the files from Quietstorm's config to the path specified in the error(s) and re-ran the make process and it resolved the error. The make process continued on until failing at the next set of files. Just repeated the file copy process until there were no more errors. I tried copying the files for both paths where I could, but don't know if it was necessary. I don't know if these files are missing due to something I screwed up during setup (entirely possible!) or if it is a genuine fault in the make process.

As a side note, you will likely have to create the "LINKED" folder in these paths manually as well as the following folder structure:
<working directory>/out/target/common/docs/gen (where working directory is the folder where repo sync was run)

Once the build process completed without errors, it took a good 30+ min and ended showing "Package complete" with the path to the .zip file that was created. So those would be good indicators of a successful build.

I don't know if this will help anyone, but just thought I'd share. There were multiple issues that the guides didn't account for and sadly I didn't make a list of them all. However I do have to thank Snake as his tip to put the Warp config files under <working directory>/device/zte/warp. That was a HUGE help!

Lastly I did note the errors I got during the make process. If anyone would find it useful, I can post them as well. Would be curious to see if anyone else gets these errors as I don't know if it's an issue with my system or the make process itself.
 
:D I think we can work on this together :D but first i have to do the initial sync while im away at school. I'll be back around 3:30-4:00 pm 2day
 
snake and jbrd, you guys might want to start up a new thread for this, kinda hijacking the cwm now... not that I mind that much, but it makes it hard to follow your progress, I am sure there are other people like me who are very excited to see your notes along the way about progress/issues on cm7... maybe we should have a CM7 development progress thread where you and quietstorm can post every few days with issues/progress and share notes etc, it would also give all of us who keep biting out tongues from asking eta's LOL

Thanks again for your work, you have a following!

CWM beta 2 released, fixed screen brightness, worked on USB mounting. Currently doing testing on primary build of CM7
Click to expand...

When I had CWM installed (went back to stock recovery) it refused to mount the SDcard at all or the USB making flashing/backup/restore/partitioning/etc all impossible which is mainly what a custom recovery is there for. Any ideas why this may have been?
