MrBobrowitz's CM7 CrackFlasher Builds - Thunderbolt Android Development

Well here we go!
After what I saw today with Protekk (sad to see him go), I am offering up my services and time for building daily builds of CM7 for the Mecha a.k.a, the THUNDERBOLT.
I will try my best, as he did, to have daily builds, but for me it will most likely be nightly only because of my current schedule.
I am currently cleaning out my build environment and re-syncing as I am writing this so hopefully by tonight I can have a build up if not tomorrow
I will be hosting my files from here:

Here's to the Android Community!

Not to say that your efforts are useless, but aren't we basically going nowhere without a kernel source? Please correct me if I'm wrong. I'm really grad that you picked this up if I'm wrong. I'm just wondering if your wasting resources compiling something when we won't have radios until a kernel (like I assume, but can be wrong). In either case, thank you and will be flashing as soon as I see that we can call and text, even if there is no data at all!

You are correct...somewhat.
Since we do not have source (yet) there are some things that will not work as well as they could be. That is not to say we wont get source soon.
HTC is usually pretty good with this.
This thread is also aimed down the line as well, being a crackflasher myself sometimes buildbot will go down and we still want out nightly build

thanks for stepping in.

Well in that case, thank you very much. I have to admit I was a pretty bad/good crackflasher. 3+ builds a day on my inc. I've been hearing that it'll be between 90-120 days from reports and emails coming from HTC regarding the kernel. Hopefully they won't keep holding out on us. I'm eagerly waiting to rip it apart and start patching my own kernels. You have a dedicated flasher as soon as we get that. If I can get vmware running and my dev environment back up I'll help you and compile opposite to you and get more builds out for those that want.

Thanksbfor your efforts dude! I enjoyed your ROMs back in the OG Droid days. Can't wait!

I can't believe the community support this phone is getting
Thanks in advance for your efforts

I remember mine quite well. Had it for 3 months and loved it to death. I sold it to my friend as his old clameshell broke, and he really had an eye on my phone. I knew it was well tested, and exactly what he wanted, so I reluctantly upgraded. I still miss it very much, but I know it's in good hands. CM7 can't come fast enough though...

Keep 'em happy! Let me know if you need help with anything, I'm still active in AndIRC.

well htc has 22 days to release the kernel source. so untill then i guess were just having fun and waiting.

Or the Droid Eris. A lot of the devs here (jcase and I among them) got their start on the Eris.

It was an actually just an "HTC Incredible". The phone was in no way a droid. Verizon dumped so much advertising into the droid name and it is so well known they only marketed it as a "droid" to boost sales.
Check the box, the phone settings about phone, and the htc website. Verizon is the only place you'll find droidn linked to the icredible

I think that's a great idea. I'd be willing to help out of this gets rolling.
Not to get OT, but getting an EVO won't help in getting the source released by HTC. Not too much he could do until then.
well considering avalaunch has made a 2.2 (froyo) aosp build for evo without the source (although camera still doesn't work) i think you could still make something
that works specially since it would still be 2.1 and the camera and libs all work on 2.1 already

I believe his is a port though, not a true AOSP as a base. I could be wrong, but you would need the source in order to do that.

Well maybe they will be a little closer to releasing the source by the time we get an evo in darch's hands.
Plus if we go ahead and hook him up he can start getting familiar with it.
Like I said I got $20 on it.
I'll start by making a list of commitments to donate in the OP
If you are willing to chip in for the cause please post it and the amount. If we get close to enough commitments to donate then I'll set the donate link up and we'll get this thing going.
thanks guys

Put me down for $20. Darch the GOD of AOSP. I hope it doesn't take him that long like it did with the Hero.

I don't want to spoil your party. but even if Darch had an evo, he would still need the kernel source for the 2.6.32 kernel, along with the vendor files to compile an Stock aosp rom. last i checked the official source for the .29 kernel hasn't been released, and when you look at htc's history of releasing kernel's it will be getting close to this time next year when the .32 kernel is officially released. but hey i'm hoping for a leak

You're not spoiling my party.
I know it couldn't be done over night, and getting an aosp build on the evo is only half the reason for the party.
The other half is how much work he put in for us hero guys without asking for donations, or even posting a link to a way to donate to him.
He's a cool dude, he's brilliant, he wants an evo and can't afford it out of pocket atm, and having him here would be very cool indeed.
On that note, if anyone has an extra upgrade they would be willing to part with that would SERIOUSLY bridge the gap. My Dad has several lines on his account for his business and typically has one or 2 upgrades available but he just used all of them last week
20 here, He has made the Hero what it should have been from Day 1. I personally will not be getting an EVO until there is a AOSP rom for it. I wish the manufacturers would just leave it along. I also dont really care if it has 4g or not since from what I hear thats all on HTC CRAP code anyways
Yeah Darch does awesome work on his roms.
Dudes! You will not be taking out Hero Dev! For the most part everyone has bailed beside Flipz and Darch!
My former Hero and I are both huge fans of Darch! Put me down for $20... and Tipharet, stay out! Nothing to see here. (or get an Evo and join us )

[Q] 2.2 ROM ?

I know we can root and remove the crap we dont want but is there a 2.2 ROM to install yet ?

Not to be an ass, but If you don't see it here chances are it's not available yet. I believe XDA to be the central hub of information (even if the news originates somewhere else). If there is news it won't be hidden on the Development page.
Look in the forums of the other Galaxy S variants to see the status of Froyo on this Samsung line of devices. I believe it will be a little while before one is released for a CDMA version.

You were nicer than I was going to be, so I just decided to just bite my tongue, and let someone else respond first.
This is my first smartphone, so instead of this thread just dropping to the bottom, maybe myself and others could learn something.
What exactly needs to be done with Froyo (or any ROM) before it can be adapted to a particular phone, in this case, the fascinate?
I suppose keeping it in relative lay-speak would be nice as well.
Having samsung release a 2.2 ROM for the US Galaxy S phones would be a start.
The euro variants have a different button layout among other things that makes life harder for our development.

We need samsung to release the 2.2 update, and that will give you 2.2
As far as custom roms / CyanogenMod 6 on the fascinate, we will need the 2.6.32 kernel source code to drop (and pray that Samsung will release the right source when they release that code) and then a bit of developing.
you really think there will even be a 2.2? Personally, I think it would be updated straight to Gingerbread
There's a post from kaos on the kaos rom for eris forms stating that he had 2.2 running on his fascinate before it bricked, but that he MIGHT be developing a rom for the fascinate.
I'll see if I can track down the post.

We'll be so lucky if Kaos gets one working with the Fascinate, I had an Eris prior to the Fascinate and I was talking to him about developing for it, looks like he found someone to help him out.
His ROM > all others once they start rolling out.
Coming from an eris I would love to have punk kaos rom on my fascinate.
I'm coming from an eris too, and had kaos on mine, and about creamed myself after reading that, hahaha.....Even if kaos came out with a 2.1, id be all set.
LOL, same here. I got a late start with KaosFroyo, coming in at V30, after I discovered that one-touch root was finally available for the Eris. I had one month of the best Android experience possible on an Eris before I ordered up my new Fascinate. I wish I had the cash to buy a Fascinate for punk kaos, so he could start creating what could only become the best Fascinate ROM ever!
EDIT: Just saw the post where he said he's already working on one. Awesome!!! I'll DEFINITELY be donating to his coffee fund once he starts pumping out a ROM for this bad boy. Hmm, what will he name it though? I vote for Kaoscinate!
Yes, its true. I've been working on a 2.2 rom for the Fascinate. I got it to boot but was in the very early stages of dev when my phone let out a puff of smoke and died.
I got the phone through a sponsor, and have returned the phone to them and they're trying to get me another one. Hopefully they will soon and I can keep on truckin

Well, if you're sure
Just sent over some coffee cash for all the hard work on KaosFroyo, since I never got around to actually donating before. And also, I'm not done with it yet, as I'm loading up V35-1 on my deactivated Eris to let a co-worker with a live Eris play with. She's unhappy with 2.1, so she might want me to give her phone the same treatment, since she's stuck in a 2-year contract.
Anyway, looking forward to you getting a replacement Fascinate. Did it literally start smoking before it died? Dang, I knew these phones were hot, but that's just a bit over the top.

Many builds discontinued - I wonder why?

I can freely speak for everyone that we are more than just thankful for all the builds we have tested so far but one question tickled my mind in the last two-three days: why are all senior members giving up and discontinuing their builds? Do they know something we don't or it's just coincidence that they all have other stuff they are busy with?
I do not want anyone to think of this thread as ungrateful discussion but just simple question towards: is Android on HD2 becoming dead project or there is still some hope for NAND version that would possibly even get OTA updates?
I feel sorry to see so many good builders discontinue their builds
Once again, for the guys that are still here but discontinuing their builds, thanks very much on everything you did so far!
People have to study, succeed in life..
Later, in their free time (like usual) they will be able to do whatever they wants..
I hope you can understand my point of view.
There probably just getting bored with it to be honest.
^^
Most likely that. There hasnt been too many big improvements lately, theres only so much you can do with a build aside from several customizations.
Whats important is working on the kernel and optimizing it to get everything working properly. Hastarin just released R8.1 with several people saying its really good. I plan on updating later tonight. Im glad He is still working away and getting it perfect!
Things will pickup again once Gingerbread is out Im sure.
Plus there has been quite a few new cooks on the scene

Fascinate development, dead?

Update: development is not dead, JT has resurrected it...Cm7 is amazing!
Forgive me if upset a few people with this post, but is it me or has the dev scene for this device died?
I remember the old school days when I had a G1 on T-mobile, we had a new rom practically every other day! I would hate to not to give credit to the amazing devs we have for our devices like JT and company but as of late things seem have died .
I remember a few months back devs were saying, we cant do much because we dont have froyo source...now we do and the scene looks identical. I pruchased this device because of its "raw power" which back in November was unrivaled, but looking at the vibrant forums and the epic there's tons of roms to choose from, VZW gets no love.
Before you guys get upset and some of my remarks, please understand my POV. Lastly, I realize that devs dont get payed to do this and do it as hobby thus I have no reason to complain, so this is just an opinion....let me know if you guys feel the same or not......
There's still a ton of development work, just nothing totally new recently. Everybody seems to be working on what is already there, just fixing and updating and whatnot.
Sent from my CM7 SCH-i500
What we are waiting on now is GB source.... LOL
In short you are pretty much right. Mostly everyone has moved on to bigger and better things. Now that all the spring goodies are coming out there are less people here to develop.
What we are waiting for really is someone to step up to the plate and take over. The devs that we did have provided a great foundation for someone else to work on.
That being said... the phone is still overpriced for what it is and Samsung has provided some practically unusable code to start with, from my understanding at least.
I can see the Vibrant forum being busy, as they have CM7 now, and likely other AOSP and AOSP based ROMs now, plus TW based ROMs. Not sure about the Epic, but I think they have a semi-functional AOSP base as well, and the Nexus S going the Sprint probably helped them out significantly. However, we're stuck basically with what Samsung gave us. The source did help out significantly for kernels, as it gave us something to work from that we didn't have before. However, the platform source did nothing. Also, there are only so many ways you can configure a ROM based on the stock software. If jt and kaos can get the last few pieces of CM7 fixed up, I'm sure you'd see development take off again, but until that happens, or until we get a new release or source, it will likely be semi-stagnant around here.
JT is working on cm7 I assure you. Latest build was today released in irc. Based on .35 kernel. Everything works but radio and sensors. So that's really good work if you ask me. He'll get it up to speed, jt is a very clever Guy.

Evil fascination came out with a new build today, he is also planning on a bunch of themes for it (2 released already, 5 more to come I think)
well this phone technically is out dated in terms of whats come out since. and we finally have workjng froyo roms which is what all the hype was about. even with home computers you cant keep updating, eventually things dont matching up. just like with these phones. im happy with my fascinate and everything thats been released.

Evil Fascination had an update tonight. It runs fantastic and the theme is awesome. Im sure the community rom is going to have a nice update soon to.
The devs for this phone have been fantastic, they made this phone worth having even when it seemed like 2.2 would never see the light of day.
After the experience I have had with the fascinate my next phone will for sure be a nexus. Even if it means jumping ship to a different carrier.

development is relative...we never had a ton of kernels/roms/mods etc because we have a relatively small community
we still have several source built kernels, 2 versions of cm7 (one of which sounds like its advancing nicely) and several touchwiz based roms
if you want to really step back and look at things, we have mods from sbrissen no other phone has (or at least had first as they kang him quickly)...
we have miuiwiz which is a feat never done before (getting miui launcher working on anything but miui)
so for those that just sit around and wait for stuff to be released so they can flash every 5 minutes...too bad...go get a more popular phone so you can flash the kanged rom after kanged rom every day
or you can actually learn to do stuff for yourself like many have

^^^^exactly.
If you sit back and enjoy your phone with the new roms when they do come out, waiting for updates and new stuff comes quicker than you realize. Hmmm, I wonder who told me to enjoy what I have a while ago.... and in all honesty, do you really think the fascinate is out dated? My phone STILL runs circles around my bro in laws tbolt. And if anyone questions our devs ability....have you herd of punk kaos? Or jt1134? Or adrynalyn? Or sbrissen? If you are tired of waiting, go back to stock....you will realize what they have done for our phones.
I never once doubted their ability. Like I said in the OP , we a are lucky to have what we got. My point was that things seem to have died down, not sure if its the phone or the lack of interest. Back in november this was androids flagship device, and, I purchased it thinking that with its hardware and our bright developers, it was going to be a beast. I'm proud of the work done but until a fully working aosp like cm7 comes out, I dontt think ill be fascinated. All the touchwiz roms are fine but slow down eventually. Just expressing my opinion fellas.

@Nitsuj17 this is a classic case of something that all people struggle with: a selfish nature. We, as people, are never really satisfied with anything. I doubt even a FULLY functional CM7/GingerMIUI would please people. It's just our nature. We are insatiable. This is not a flame or an attack of the OP, it's just simply an indictment of all people, myself included. Just my $0.02.

com rom and miuiwiz are still being worked...and will have lots of new features when they are out...these things take time though, we could have constant updates or less updates, but of more substance

Thanks for all the devs helping us with all the 2.3.4 rom based off the official rom. It runs well. However, I am waiting for to dev who can either bring cm7 or mini to our rom. Right now, there is just too much moto blur bloat on the official rom.

As far as i know, CM team is trying to make a CM port to our phone. But as you may know, the hardware in our phone is different than the versions they have now for other phones (for example, the fingerprint scanner). They doesnt have any 2.3.4 motorola source code to have as a base neither....
They will never come

Huh. Go on then, take the source and start-a-porting. How about this: don't ever expect anything to come. There is a chance it will never come, although sense the CM team is working on it I suspect it will arrive some day. Their one rule is to not ask for etas, so please stop asking where cm7 is.

Learn to read, no one asked where it was OP simply stated that they are waiting for it as opposed to just messing with the current roms

I totally agree we shouldn't take the devs for granted (especially those of us just savvy enough to use the roms, but not enough to help make 'em at all).
However, last year Android was at like 16% market share, and CM could support basically every unlocked phone all the way back to the G1. This year Android market share is at almost 40% with phone dropping at an accelerating rate. I'm sure it helps them decide which phones to support to know where there is interest.
I hope it doesn't hurt anyone at CM's feelings for me to say that I love CM, and have missed it ever since I left my G1 for the Atrix, and I too will be holding off on flashing roms for now in hopes that CM will add us to the supported device list.
Well said

Where can we get atleast 100% confirmation that cm7 is in fact being worked on. No he said she said stuff. Let's see an actual post from one of the devs please. I think that would make people feel A LOT better

I would like to see this too, assuming such confirmation even exists...I've been watching aliasxerog's twitter periodically, as it seemed he and a team of a few other guys were given the unlocked Atrix to work on? As recently as like last week or something, he had made comments about working on a kernel.
However recently it seems he has been looking for a DX2...nothing like ditching work on one phone partway through! Hopefully this isn't really the case lol, and he is still at work on CM7 or something!
if you search for CM7 on the Atrix foruns you'll see a post with status updates on the port. No "he said she said".

Got a link to that post??
i definite don't take devs for granted. While I don't have the the technical chops to port myself, I donated to several projects .
While the current official rom works very well, I believe atrix can be even better without all the extra bloat . I think we have good chance to see miui official support for our phone because the phone is being heavily advertised by the china cellular providers.

Come on guys, if you don't pro-actively "wait for it", things will be much easier for you
It will take time for the first build to emerge, and even more times before all the bugs get fixed. Just subscribe to aliaxesrog twitter and wait for your day.
To be clear, you don't have to be a existing CM7 Dev to start print CM7, it's open source.
When a developer gets a port working for a specific device, if they can merge the unique code for that device back into CM7 mainline, it becomes an officially supported device and that developer becomes a recognized maintainer.
We have a few people working on CM7, AliasXerog, SamCripp and I'm reaching out to others, but as no Moto devices have been as unlocked as the Atrix since the OG Droid people are starting from scratch.

Rewards (READ: BIG QTD OF DOLLARS) was offered and NO CM team said anything about ETA or if its being worked on, so i gona hate cm team and i think they will not support our phone, sad but true.
I really want to donate, and i didn't have more a atrix (mine got dropped on toilet), but just when community got somethig good and working.

When it gets ported, they will presumably start supporting. Have faith!

The Cyanogen devs have said, repeatedly, that what devices they develop CyanogenMod for is dependent on what devices they personally have or have access to. That being said, there is a thread on the Unofficial Ports section of their forum, but it's almost exclusively repetitions of "the bootloader is unlocked, can we get a port now please?"
For the more impatient members of the angry mob, it's worth remembering that the bootloader hasn't been unlocked for all that long.
