Root [wip][rom][cm7][zvc] lg-ls855 marquee

[ndno]

I contribute this green stuff called money....when I find something worth contributing to I contribute quite well.
Where is there an argument anywhere in this conversation?
There is no argument. Nor is there any complaining.
Aside from theme work Monster tell me what ACTUAL work you are doing rom wise? Really I'm interested.

Really, dude? Monster, PlayfulGod, and Bloodawn work their asses off to get ROMs better than stock and you come in here flashing your money, thinking you're entitled to better ROMs. They appreciate donations but your money is "appreciation" for their work, not a payment for a job they must perform. As Monster stated, he's working on CM7 on the side but it's not ready for public release. You say you're not complaining but I see otherwise. You pretty much alienated yourself with all the devs here by call their ROMs inferior. Good going...

The rooms are way better than factory as is your kernel ndno (great job btw), once cm7 is ready this phone will blaze dude. The other rooms are not inferior but neither do they unlock the phones true power. Anyways, I think some of these devs oughta make dome change out of this they deserve it.

ive been trying to root my lg marquee lg855 for 2 days now no luck have tried about every program and i see in this thread that there has been some issues, good luck on this i would really like to try a rooted phone so i can make my phone a wireless hotspot. but im not to smart with this stuff so i will leave it to you guys i wish you guys the best of luck so i can live life easier with wireless hotspotting..right now im stuck with a tethed phone so i can still use internet on my laptop ... which clocks in at a high speed of 120kb a sec.... oh joy twice as fast as dial up fml.

sometimes the internet is not a good thing. How does a thread about developing a custom ROM become an argument about whose work is worthwhile? Any work, especially work done for free and shared for free is worthwhile. Ndno made an over clock kernel, which was no easy feat, and he won't even put up a donate link. Thanks to anyone and everyone who has worked to make our android experience better, especially those sharing that work for FREE. You guys give me hope in humanity.

PS Donations are great, and I'm sure they are appreciated, but I don't think that's why most of us do this. We all want to get the most out of our devices and we share our work with the community that helps us and shares our love of having the freedom to do what we want with our phones. Am I right?

I totally agree with you. I'm truly sorry and upset that comments I made, gave some doofus the feeling that he should argue with our awesome devs. These guys give us great product.. without them and their generosity this phone would still be stuck on stock...some people do need to realize that they are fortunate to receive such great mods to load on their respective phones. Also these devs can teach you quite alot. I am still a noob but they have inspired me to learn more about android, and because of that I have learn amazing things. So anyone who agrees with me SHOW OUR DEVS SOME LOVE.

I found something that should be useful to you guys. I was playing around with CM7 kernel to see if it gives a 3D graphics boost. To my surprise, it is not the kernel, but the ramdisk which gives the boost. Unfortunately, the CM7 ramdisk seems to cause a few other problems. My network is messed up and my MSL has changed. Also, there is a strange graphical glitch where a small black block appears in the middle of the screen, and the touchscreen becomes a little unresponsive. This might be the main problem with CM7.

 

[imfm]

I fixed the ramdisk, so you guys should be able to run CM7 using my kernel:

im going to load it up and see if it had any effect in getting any networking going on cm7. (wont boot, too much deleted that is needed by cm7)

although im pretty sure that we are going to need to use a froyo ril in compile to get it working. thats a huge problem

 

[imfm]

Did you try installing and loading w default kernel first, then installing the new kernel? The marquee is so picky about installing roms with different kernels.

Yep i did

 

[Craptorman]

One thing I noticed when I swapped init binaries messing with the 3d thing, with the cm7 init in the ramdisk I had no service. Replaced init with stock one and had cell/data service. Hmmmm ...

 

[NeoSwagga]

Ok, we get it some guy said something foolish, love the devs blah blah etc. how about we move on cause from what I see they (including the troll) surely have and constantly shining light on a spat from days ago is just counter productive. That said, @craptorman you're now able to send and receive calls? And to the rest of the Devs I'm swapping hard drives and setting up a Linux based dev space via vm in virtual box so I'll be back with questions lol.

 

[andronewb]

Just like to say, from all of us with the Marquee, we appreciate the hard work and can't wait to see CM7.

No. Still can't make calls. Monster tried this and it didn't work.

When i try to build I get this error.

[Craptorman]

Double check that you did not miss step 3 in the how-to in the first post.

Looks like I forgot a step. Create a file named "cyanogen_LS855.mk" in the "vendor/cyanogen/products/" folder with the lines below. That should get you past that error.

# Include GSM stuff
$(call inherit-product, vendor/cyanogen/products/gsm.mk)

# Inherit device configuration
$(call inherit-product, device/lge/LS855/LS855.mk)

# Inherit some common cyanogenmod stuff.
$(call inherit-product, vendor/cyanogen/products/common_full.mk)

#
# Setup device specific product configuration.

No thats what I thought at first too, that i made a typo or something when i put the add lunch combo line in there Its in there though. ive tried the build/envsetup.sh &&...brunch, lunch, and breakfast. no go. b

 

[Craptorman]

I edited my previoius post. That should fix your error. Sorry, I posted to quick.

 

[hurrilanche]

Thanks dude!:thumbup:

 

[Craptorman]

Just noticed my https://github.com/Craptorman/proprietary_vendor_lge still has folder names of ignite and marquee. I changed this a while back and forgot to push it. You'll want to change marquee folder to LS855.

 

[hurrilanche]

I changed the name of the folder like you said in the last post. this is the output i get when i try to build:

im not sure whats going on. this android thing is starting to frustrate the shit out of me lol.

 

[Craptorman]

Yes it can get maddening! I think it looks like there's an issue with the build environment. Double check your Android SDK install and make sure things are setup in your PATH. Also make sure all the need packages are installed.

Installing the SDK | Android Developers

Hope some of this helps.

 

[hurrilanche]

Maddening indeed! But hey, everyone was a beginner at some point so just gotta be patient and read read read! Yeah I tend to make mistakes setting up the environment everytime I do something different. Ill work on in and try to see what im doing wrong. Thanks for your help.

 

[Craptorman]

HUGE progress tonight.
Things fixed:

1. Bluetooth works
2. Camera works
3. Sensor errors are gone.
4. Video now plays back

Things still not working:

1. GPS
2. cell/data
3. Screen won't turn on after it turns off. Plugging in USB cable turns it on.

I'll try and have a build ready for you all tomorrow evening to try on your Marquee.

Great work! Was it drivers?
