Idea for 3.x Kernel - Atrix 4G General

hello,
i posted it in the ICS update thread:
Hey, silly question, i know, think it would be asked many times.
i wanne opend a new thread at dev, but i cant't to less comments --_--
now, we know, we never get a 3.X kernel from moto, so, we must help us at our own, i asked me, how?
my idea was, what abei the LG P990, i heard, there are 3.x kernel, no officiel, i know.
What are the hardware differences at the LG and the atrix? fingerprint and camera, i know, but what about the rest?
it it identicly? is it possible, that we can work with it? at beginning, without camera and fingerprint?
perhaps we found an other device with an identicly camera and 3.x kernel, perhaps we can look in a direction like that? only moto bashing wont help anyway

i hope any dev get give informations to me?

the developers already know that moto left us behind..
they're talking about it and what they are going to do??..just the time will tell us...we have to wait hehe
I'm not a developer but sometimes i asked then about start the work from some other similar device's kernel (same that you're suggesting here)..they told that it's an idea but should be necessary a massive rewriting...so it's not easy and they will need time even if the device is similar..

thats the point, i think we don't have any other chance, similar devices kernel, or from scratch, the second is the option which needs more time, i think
i wanne call me a developer, nothing in comparsion with our big ones but i would like to help your devs and i think, i'm not the only one, but i don't know how - i know that is many work and needs massive rewriting, but it's our only option.
i only hope some devs would found together and can say, how we, the, i wanne call it "non-kernel-hackers" , can help.

Why Defy can use Froyo kernel for CM9?
Why Defy can use GB kernel for CM10?
Why Defy bootloader is locked but still have a better development?
Defy also only have GB, no ICS

I'm not sure if you noticed but the defy and the atrix are two very different phones.

Its not as simple as that. Each device is different regardless of the OS. If you think our devs aren't good enough or they aren't trying hard enough then I'm sure you know exactly how to do it so just try yourself .

Hi quarx!
I want to ask you something...how you do to make hwa work on jb for defy?...I ask this because in atrix forum we are mad cos motorola **** us not releasen ICS...
So I think...in first time the problem on defy was the locked bootloader...but you get it work. Atrix has an unlocked bootloader..and we have Nvidia drivers...and I think there is a phone using the same tegra chip on a 2.x kernel...soooo its possible to make something?
If the answer is YES...and you know how to do it...maybe the atrix comunity can donate to you to buy an atrix...
Sorry for the bad english...and I wait for your answer..thank in advance!

i'm glad, that this thread went to the direction i thought about at starting it

Anyway, i think that our best chances is to raise a found, by donating, and offer it as a bounty for the first dev to create a 3.x kernel for our device. We might find someone that way. Create that kernel takes lots of time and skills. Very very few people are willing to invest all the time required for free.

I too have sent Hashcode a message asking for possible assistance. I told him we would be willing to donate to the cause.

If you can organise a decent fund/development device, I'd recommend contacting TripNRaVeR. He has experience porting the vanilla 3.1.10 Tegra kernel code to a new device (the One X, which shipped with 2.6.39) hence he's probably already halfway there with knowing where to go next. It looks like LG and Sammy have ditched DVFS in their 3.1.10 releases on the Galaxy R and O2X, which would be nice (using standard governors )

See, you just need to ask
Galaxy S with Nexus S kernel - Booting Nexus S Android Gingerbread
Videos are here:
http://www.youtube.com/supercurioxda
What's about this port:
- It uses the Nexus S kernel compiled from sources
- It runs the exact /system image release, we dumped yesterday. (I spent the night of it so it's still the same day!)
Am i French ?
Now you don't have any doubt anymore
Which filesystem ?
This early preview runs on Ext4. no RFS at all, the kernel don't support RFS.
Does everything work ?
Nope, but I must admit I didn't expect such a result.
Don't work: GPS / Voice / Wifi / some Buttons / camera
Work: everything else: like sound, GL acceleration etc
Will it work ?
I think most of it will work after countless hours spent on it.
Is it flashable with Odin ?
That's a good idea <Gregounech>, i think i'll do that tomorrow.
Do you work alone ?
I worked alone to produce this preview, but not to produce the dump yesterday.
Credits go the IRC channel #NSdev on freenode !
What about a team ?
That's the goal. Rendez-vous on IRC so we can produce ports and improve the quality very fast of this.
Is this opensource ?
Everything will be released after i get some sleep!

I have been obsessively following efforts at cyanogen forums and this forum... i am pretty on top of things, and i am NOT aware of any success taking kernels/roms/images from GSM and having them work on CDMA...damn right depressing
The problem is deeper than just kernel. There are fundamental issues as to why we're not already on 2.2...
I'd go into it, but this thread isn't about that. Plus, I am not a programmer, so I don't want to overstep my bounds.
It's significantly easier to port things on GSM versions of phones. We likely won't see it until at least Froyo is working on our devices, possibly later. This also shouldn't be in the Development forum...

I'd really like someone to help me understand (in noob terms) why porting is so hard for CDMA devices. Expect a thanks if you can explain it to me!
A thanks is what I am not after. It's that for anyone that has had this device since september this topic has been beaten to death.

I just wanted to remind anyone new to Fascinate Modding, that there is NO GINGERBREAD ROM for the SAMSUNG FASCINATE at this time.
So if you are itching to flash a ROM from a different phone. Please DO NOT BE MISLED by this thread and flash Gingerbread for a i9000.
You have a Galaxy S Variant, Not the Galaxy S phone.

X8 sitting with unlocked bootloader but no custom kernal!!!!

It takes shortly if the dev just improves the kernel (2.6.29 one)
But it takes long if they gonna make a all new kernel.

Kernel development doesnt take months.my friend can compile it for two or three days.you just have to know C++ good.
Well, it can be compiled in 15 minutes, plus 10 seconds more to pack it (if you already have ramdisk).
But the problem is that NAND initialization is broken in SE's kernel source.

Wouldn't it be possible to simply use a newer kernel from a non-SE phone which has roughly the same hardware components as X8?
Btw Blagus, I sent you a PM. Please respond.
Both Mini and Mini Pro already have custom kernel, very soon it will come to X8.

Quoth Wikipedia:
CyanogenMod is an aftermarket firmware for over forty cell phones and tablets based on the open-source Android operating system.
It offers features not found in the official Android-based firmwares of vendors of these devices, including native theming support (also known as the "T-Mobile Theme Engine"), a codec for the Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC), compressed cache (compcache), a large APN list, an OpenVPN client, a reboot menu, support for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and USB tethering, toggles in the notification pull-down (such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, and many more), as well as other enhancements. CyanogenMod was also the first mobile OS to incorporate BFS as the task scheduler, a change that has been merged into experimental branches in the official Android source tree.
CyanogenMod claims to increase performance and reliability over official firmware releases.

So yeah, it offers a lot of features not included in official ROMs, and very useful ones indeed. But if you don't plan on using them / don't need to, I guess it's better to stay on stock? That's up to you to decide, after balancing out the pros and cons.
You should also keep in mind that you might void your warranty if you choose to install a custom ROM.
In my opinion, SE stock ROM is better than most other vendors', but CyanogenMod is the best.

on cm forum some moderator asked to call some dev's to leave replay i asked mike and he sad :
MichaƂ Gapinski
I don't want to do it
TBH, CyanogenMOD team seems to be a bunch of HTC fanboys.
I have contacted them via CM forums a year ago and none of the admins replied
Im kinda agree with what the mod said, our phone is kinda oldie, most of us are thinking on changin our phones this year! or anything! + we got plenty of stable roms that we can actually use as daily and main ones, all we need is developers, not the CM team support as well! And im not saying I disagree, cause i'd love the CM support, more complete roms or anything, but its a waste of time and maybe resources for a phone thats obsolete, plus, we're actually thinking on changing (must of us) even if we love it (I do love it)! Instead of asking CM support we should find dev's or learn and practice with it
not to burst ur bubble but they already said no to mike

Really, GT540 will be dead soon I think. Mike got new Xperia NeoV, pcfighter don't release anything now too, Mur4ik left long time ago, Wingrime is still active, but releases are just from time to time, something still need to be done. DevSwift has Desire S, so Swift is his 2nd phone, which he don't care about that much.
Many others also changed phone, swift became less active than like 2-3 months ago.
Well, I'm currently trying to develop, and if I can get my fastboot to work, I'm going to make ROM's, so there is hope I'm trying to port a ROM from the p500, you may guess which one!

Why Atrix developers doesn't seem like to dev directly from ICS AOSP?

Usually, (for other devices of course), ICS roms that are developed from AOSP tend to be more stable, less buggy and better than CM9 roms, so im kind of curious why Atrix developers have decided to work on CM9, even thought its far from complete?
Just a question.

I'm not 100% but I think the developers need something from the moto/nvidia which is why the rom was ported from the photon and not just built From the ground up .

NVidia won't release the drivers and sources required to accomplish this, so a 1/2 ass port is all that can be done at the moment. This has nothing to do with the devs. They are giving us the best they can with what they have right now.

Not saying that they arent working hard, just asking why they choosing CM9 instead of AOSP 4.0, just a simple question. And ponting out that builds based on AOSP seems to be more solid and stable than builds based on CM9, mostly because CM9 itself its still not from complete

Also, IIRC, they're borrowing heavily from CM7 for our current CM9 builds. I believe we'll see more options when we finally get official source and drivers in Q3.

Please read the above before commenting again! If you had read it the first time you would not have posted what you did below!.............Or maybe you still would have, who knows!!! You can program all you want for an AOSP ROM, but without device specific drivers you can never optimize for any one device. Simple as this, for any ICS on the Atrix, whether AOSP, CM9, MIUI, or whatever, you still need device drivers. Try running your NVidia graphics card in your computer without a driver................yeah, see what I mean (but then again you might like 640 x 480!)!

Woops, i forgot to tell that i was refering to other devices AOSP 4.0 ROMS, but if you are as inteligent as you seems to be, you should have known that because the Atrix actually doesn't have any rom coded from AOPS 4.0, at least on this forum.
The roms i was refering to was ICS Passion and ICS Euforia, both made by the same developer, Neobuddy, made for the Samsung Vibrant, a 1ghz phone, with 512mb for ram, without official drivrrs released, and the rom is more stable than the current Atrix ICS builds (no offend, i recongnize the guys are doing a great job making it happen), and almost as smooth as a the builds, and that phone is in a similar condition driver-related, that its, without any drivers being released. Thats why my doubt came, why the developers chiosed CM9 as a base, even thought it isnt really stable yet, and not completed, and why builds made from AOSP 4.0 tend to be more stable?

Woops, i forgot to tell that i was refering to other devices AOSP 4.0 ROMS, but if you are as inteligent as you seems to be, you should have known that because the Atrix actually doesn't have any rom coded from AOPS 4.0, at least on this forum.

And that's why I asked you to link them. You are comparing AOSP ROM's on other devices to CM9 on other devices. Because you see something run more smoothly on one device, does not directly mean it will run smoothly on another device. In any event, your question was answered in as far as there are drivers and source that the devs do not have in order to make any ICS based ROM's work optimally on the Atrix. If I had to hazard a guess as to why the devs are using CM9 as a base, it would be because the groundwork has been laid for them. The Atrix doesn't have an army of devs, so we get a smaller mix of options with ROM's.

The OP was asking why the Atrix doesn't have AOSP ROM's.. so you.. ask him to link them?
I've been lurking around the forums since the release of this phone and you have got to be one of my favorite posters so far, give me a good laugh every time.

I kind of think I get what the OP is asking. He's asking why build a really souped up race car where as a regular car is just as fine. Seems like he's not picky and he would be content with anything stable vs anything available now. But that's another thread isn't it?
