Root cm10.2

Did you guys happen to get a copy of the avid kernels source? I went to the ZTE site, and got a 404 when trying to download
 
I think they took it down a while after they put it up. It should be floating around somewhere on the web though.
 
im currently trying a modified version of that very same source, i am using the sound includes from the lg motion instead of the ones that came in the kernel because the audio libs they build work for our device perfectly. as well as the avid. im hoping that using their headers will help build working libs and maybe even a better kernel

keep in mind that theres a good chance this will just end up breaking the kernel... but theres also the chance it will do nothing, or the unlikely chance that it will actually work
 
yea that broke the build, but for now i threw the files in we know work. hopefully the next upload will have sound even if its not the proper way to get it
 
did you use

TARGET_BOOTLOADER_BOARD_NAME := hayes
TARGET_KERNEL_CONFIG := msm8960-hayes_defconfig

in boardconfig in your build
 
TARGET_BOOTLOADER_BOARD_NAME := hayes
is irrelevant. i use aurora and it boots, what matters is the defconfig which can either be the hayes that comes in there or the config.gz
 
Phone works now. Couldn't test 4g cause I only get 3g in my room. But WiFi needs to be fixed, the light sensor doesn't work on the phone part, forgot to test it with the screen, but when you put the phone up to your ear the screen stays on.
I just realized something, I forgot to test voice, I didn't make an actual call, just to 411.
 
If you go to mobile networks and pick LTE/CDMA you should get 3g. I haven't tested 4g yet though. I'm waiting for the next build, I'm hoping Wi-Fi is the next thing to be fixed.
 
kool, yea i got some theories on wifi, but i have yet to run a build since the sound fix. i had the phone initially set to cdma/evdo/lte by default so that may have just been it messing up trying to get lte working. not really sure whats going on with the lte
 
and keep in mind people, the signal bars lie. on the warp sequent it swore we had 1x signal when we had 3g, so a speed test is the only way to tell what speeds youre truly getting. 1x/throttled 3g 0-300kbps, 3g 300-2500kbps, 4g 2500kbps+. and keep in mind that is kilobits(kbps), not kilobytes(kB/s), a rough conversion would be to device kbps by 10. 300kbps = something around 30kB/s
 
If you want a temporary fix for Wi-Fi DM47021 had an init.d script that he used in his sugarkang jb build for the warp. I'll take a look at it and see if it can't be modified for this application
 
Well, when I set it to LTE/CDMA I got 3g signal. Btw phone works in all modes, regular, speaker and wired headset. I don't believe Bluetooth turns on. The light sensor doesn't work either. Wi-Fi is next on my priority list.
 
thx redjama, and jim i doubt that will work, if it would im sure dm woulda mentioned it when we were talking. its for the warp, old single core with broadcom wifi if im not mistaken, qualcomm makes the wifi in this, there is however the stuff i found for the motion, might work, i havent been booted into linux long enough to run another build though. i will talk to playfulgod, see if wifi even works on the motion and go from there

Well good to know the audio file work here I been following this device tree close device too hope it help you guys https://github.com/Legacy-dev/android_device_zte_dana my next step is to get sdcard for cm10-1 for the avid
 
awesome, thanks dadcup. just used the proposed camera fix and im praying it works without much adjustment, kuz each adjustment takes about 2 hours to build and an hour to upload, and thats just a minor one, full overhaul takes 6 hours to upload...
fml...
and fmisp too lol

p.s. somebody try my new build XD
 
and sdcard might prove to be rather difficult, im not sure exactly what i did wrong but i couldnt get it on the warp sequent. mounted fine android couldnt see it though, only terminal... i believe the warp team got it running, i know the blade has it, and its not really an architecture specific thing so its not gonna be something youll need have the same chipset for, just gotta figure out the quirks
 
between cm10 and cm10.1(android 4.1 and 4.2) there was a major change in the way the sdcard worked in android. the added multi-user directory support, so like on windows how each person has their own desktop and my documents, android does that now. therefore you arent allowed to access it DIRECTLY, it is controlled by zygote which i wont get into technical crap about but basically they added a middle man. the build i am doing is cm10, so that was pre-screwing everything up for us. when we get cm10.1 working right with the sd card and fix the 10.1 sound bugs we will start putting out builds of that but for now cm10 is going to be the most functional thing we have
 
I'm completely fine with cm10 anyways, as long as we have butter. Anyways, downloading next test build now. I'm testing camera, correct? Are you doing known fixes before you work on the harder stuff?
 
but yea, if this camera fix works we will be well on our way to a finished cm10... mms is still broken if im not mistaken, need the wifi fix which i believe was already worked out by totlth and dadcup, bluetooth i believe mouse has a fix for already, and we need to figure out the boost lte issues so that really only leaves mms and lte. so yea let me know how the camera test goes, if it doesnt work out of the box ill have mouse run some tests and try to get it worked out because i did add the camera parameters but im not sure if i have all the right files building/being pulled as proprietary
