[DEV_THREAD]Droid 2 CM7 with Gingerbread Kernel

441121 Views 4760 Replies 215 Participants Last post by  joeblow789
since cvpcs got 2nd init playing nice with the gingerbread kernel (OTA update, or leak), I started working on getting the libs and what-not straightened out.

THIS IS FOR THE DROID2 ONLY
You Must Be On the Gingerbread OTA to Use!!!!!
The leak will not work, my install script checks your kernel version to make sure it's the OTA


Currently here are the bugs found:

Camera freeze on zoom
(turn on zoom with volume keys, then use the volume up down to zoom)

If you have issues with apps not showing in the market install the following apk

Until I get my personal life straightened out, only builds with notable changes will be posted here.
You can always find the latest builds in ROM Toolbox available on the market :)
until they update the toolbox to work correctly with the latest versions of CWR, you can download the rom in the toolbox then manually install the zip found in /sdcard/romtoolbox/downloads/RevNumbers/

Using the GB kernel appears to have fixed the bluetooth voice commands issue, so BT audio is fully functional :)

The 1% battery increment "hack" doesn't work, so we've got to settle for 10% increments until we figure out what's up with charge_counter reporting random (ie -14768524) things.

Oh I never thought this day would come!

Rev I'm in let's fix this ... ahem, well I'm in after this weekend ...crazy busy @ work

Have you tried putting the gb kernel in an update.zip eventually we should include in the update so this sbfing back and forth can stop ;)
hey rev and i get an md5?

edit: never mind, i took the plunge and it booted on the droid pro gingerbread kernel! the question is can i get your device folder and your vendor files and the three vendor .mk files you use in your d2 builds for the gingerbread kernel? i wanna get cracking on this egl screen lag

Gimme a few and i'll make a github for all this :)

Rev
beautiful beautiful beautiful :) can you include those three vendor .mk files along with the vendor proprietary files and the device folder?

edit: also, has the sticky settings bug happened for you guys yet? not yet over here
I'll update the OP here in a minute, but here's the github link where I'll be putting the new schtuffs

If GB kernel fixed it on the D2 then... are we still using froyo libs\ kernel modules on D2G? If so then we should try GB ones and if that doesnt work we should try Froyo ones.

As for compass that would be in your akmd2 file and somewhere in these fixed camera mirroring in D2G so the change is something with these libs. Should be the same for you guys to at least get it working, trying to help you out so when we get our GB kernel we are ready!

\lib\
libbridge.so
libcamera.so
libcaps.so
libdmengine.so
libdmjavaplugin.so
libFMRadio.so
libHPImgApi.so
libjanus.so

libpppd_plugin.so
libprovlib.so
libpvr2d.so
librds_util.so
libscalado.so
libsrv_init.so
libsrv_um.so
libtpa_core.so

If you are having problems with it not connecting/working then check your stagefright and omx decode\encode libs!

D2G doesn't have a GB Leak from which we can pull libs.... and the libs (in most cases) *have* to match the kernel

YESS! Does battery seem to be better with the GB kernel?

Amazing news! When camera and camcorder get fixed I'll be on this helping you guys find bugs. Great job Rev!
OP Updated with new build... now has working EGL. Thanks to Framework for pointing me in the right direction :)

Now... on to the camera

Rev
Are there big bugs other than cam/camcorder? All the fixes for bugs that were ironed out with the froyo kernel are still applied here except for the cam?
As soon as cam is working ill be switching over

Once again great work rev and team can't wait

Sent from my DROID2 using RootzWiki Forums
Only bug I've found at all so far is the camera/camcorder doesn't work... I'll be using the phone quite a bit tomorrow so if there are any others I'll probably notice them ;-)

EDIT:
Found another one...
DSP Manager FCs lol

Rev
The battery life is amazing and this is the first CM7 build that my live wallpaper has worked on. GREAT WORK.

Thanks

DSP is the first thing I lose when I flash a nightly anyway
Same here. As far as I'm concerned the only problems are the camera/camcorder.

great work
Yep. DSP FCs on me all the time as it is when making phone calls to automated services over speakerphone
Also another strange bug upon an attempt to use bloat freezer on a program I got a reset and bootloop, had to sbf, going to see if i can reproduce it and post a logcat
