Root Building CM 10.1 (JB 4.22) from source for Motion

You guys aren't giving it enough time, I stead of asking all the time where the progress is, just jump In and start learning and trying yourselves, we all have lives you know, and it doesn't hurt to ask for help when you try.

Correct!!!!!!!

I been spending time with my wife, one of my daughters and grandkids. And that leaves lil time for much else outside of work. ;)
 
Seriously, if you're tired of waiting.
Do it yourself, don't bump threads because you want progress, if you want true progress learn to do things yourself.
 
actually the rom works if you unpack the zip and throw all your apps in /system/app they will work.
since the problem is writing to data or /sdcard maybe it would be possible to use hk's sd-ext recovery/kernel to make that work. probably not though.

due whats with you? why do you always have something negitive to say? im just making sure it stays on the first page... man you need to chill. like i said i was a dev at one point so i understand but you really need to get off my back....
 
Don't give me attitude like "learn to do it yourself" I read stating an opinion, I am trying to learn, trying to do it myself, I was just stating that it seems like everyone's jumping ship. There are farewell threads and shit. I'm certainly not being impatient, I'm thrilled at the amount of devs giving their time and effort to our phone. It's a sad reality of android, there will always be something better on the horizon, something faster, bigger, brighter.

I've recently purchased java books, Android programming books, xml books, the whole nine. I'm reading them, but my background and niche has always been in C and .NET so it's a slow learning process.
 
Well it's just great that you're learning :D
And I'm just saying people should learn to do this is themselves because it's always better that way, you help out others, and you also get exactly what you want. Not what others want but what you want, and I'm saying that because people are impatient here recently, PG has a life BobZ has a life hK has a life, everyone has a life. And for those of us learning, it takes a long time. All I'm saying is be patient, and if you don't wanna be then instead of being bored waiting for something new. Just create it yourself :D
My bad if the way I said it earlier sounded a lot worse than how it was meant to be.
 
look's like the drama from the esteem forum has spilled over to the lg motion forum side...

I say this for the devs and all others...take your time.. i am learning to port in the mean time.....

After reading over everything in the thread again out of boredom.
I got a random idea that could act as an temporary fix for installing apps.
Hopefully I works so we can focus on the other problems.

If you play around with fstab you could technically force it to mount system as rw, Create /system/data and /system/data/media, bind mount /system/data as /data, then /data/media as sdcard like devices with internal storage usually use. There's no real reason for it not to work other than that the system partition is tiny. I don't have a motion to test anymore but it should work.
Easy way to test without it being permenant would be open a terminal, become root then run:
mount -o remount,rw /system
mkdir /system/data
mkdir /system/data/media
umount /data
umount /sdcard
mount /system/data /data
mount /system/data/media /sdcard
Then try installing something. If the cache partition is being mounted that could be used instead of system and should already be mounted as rw.

If that doesn't work try http://www.xda-developers.com/android/how-to-mount-the-cache-partition-as-a-fake-sd-card/
But use data instead of sdcard in the steps.

I tried setting the default install location for sd with the trick I used on another device but didn't work. But I'll try this now.
 
Hey. This is a problem that has been happening recently on my LG Motion, that if I use SCR Pro or Screen Recorder PRO, It comes out as just a jumbled mess. and also Will there be a CM11, or am I just overestimating? :confused::confused:
 
The link doesn't appear to function anymore. Does anyone have a link?

I can compile if necessary but I'm just looking for a couple of files. I'm currently trying to port cm to another phone (Optimus f3) and am running into dalvik issues
E/dalvikvm( 307): DexOpt: build rev does not match VM: 27 vs 28
Click to expand...

If anyone's interested, here's the current logcat for the build: link

edit: I'm just going to compile anyway. :)
 
really wish this project would have made it farther. Does anybody ahev a link or copy of the last working test build?
