ok, well that could be from the stuff utkanos was mentioning lg did on this device, could also be due to a diff kernel. guess the best way to find out is to take the recovery zimage and toss it in my device repo and compile it and see :)

I only used the straight pre compiled version. I have yet to change even files like the fstab which after looking at it is completely different.

I just got my laptop to dualboot ubuntu 10.04. Got the drivers and all working yesterday so I should be able to build and help development if need be.

Looks like no takers. Oh well. You can catch me on that channel.

Gannon, more than willing to do so though we're several time zones away (I'm in Hong Kong). Let me do some changes on shabby penguin's build first and then if I'm clueless I'll hit you up.

Thanks for stopping by! Both of you (Shabby and Gannon) investing time on our project and phones despite your busy schedules. :) Will msg both of you if I have exhausted all options.

I could use you on the IRC.. :D

I don't necessarily need someone with adb and linux. I could use someone with adb/someone with linux.

I'm going to need to be able to set up the BoardConfig.mk file with values such as this:
BOARD_KERNEL_BASE := 0x13F00000
And this:
BOARD_BOOTIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x080000000
BOARD_RECOVERYIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x0010FE80000
BOARD_SYSTEMIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x63BFFC0000
BOARD_USERDATAIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x79FFFC0000
BOARD_FLASH_BLOCK_SIZE := 131072

But I'm going to need to use adb to find out.

I'm going to need someone with linux to use an extract-files.sh to set up the vendor files properly. Yes, they will need to set up a CM compile.

Any news?

Sorry I haven't been updating. Utkanos is on holiday so chances are he isn't thinking about us, I've been trying to sit in the chat room with Gannon and shabby atleast an hour a day but nothing yet really.

I mean unless you care that I got my permit lol

Because they have too.. Android is Linux based, Linux is open source, therefor they must release the source code

It should be everything

Hmm, they never gave us complete source with the Triumph. We never got driver sources and had a bunch of driver issues with wifi/wake lock etc.

also does it include recovery?

No idea. But the LG Optimus Elite from Sprint has full source code. So that means more good news. Can't tell until Wednesday ;)

I will play with it when it comes out.

I would really like to get in to this stuff and was wondering if there is a really good [HOW TO] to explore the ROMS and figure out how to optimize and generally play around. I search the internet and A LOT of stuff comes up, but not what is actually good to read up on. I am pretty proficient in the IT space and know linux so using that platform to play around on is an issue. Any thoughts?
