This is a project I've been working on and off since I got my MotoACTV several months ago. A port of AOSP android for the MotoACTV.
What works:
- Wifi
- Audio
- Bluetooth (limited)
- Backlight level and leds.
- FM Radio.
- GPS.
- Accelerometer.
- all google apps
- most android functions. This is GingerBread 2.3.4.
What doesn't work (yet):
- Audio input
- native codecs, no video playing with stock players.
- HW acceleration
- some other things...
This is a work in progress yet, I just felt it reached a point where it's starting to be usable, so I'm releasing them as previews.
systemPreview13.img.zip 25/jan/2013
systemPreview18.img.zip 29/jan/2013 fixed battey icons, slightly improvement in video reproduction
That file is only the system image, it needs to be flashed with fastboot or ClearD's Image Flasher. The MotoACTV needs to be wiped. You need a boot image from the latest Motorola based roms, such as DPRom9.
No questions will be answered at this point. This is not finished, if you don't know how to install this, then wait for a more finished version. I already know most problems with this rom, please, no bug reporting, or improvement suggestion yet.
This is completely build from sources except for some non-open source binaries related to the hardware of the MotoACTV.
I am making the needed files to build this available to anyone who wants to give it a try and help. Atarii from the irc channel is already contributing.

What can you do to help/contribute?
Post information that you feel could be usefull for other users. Apps that you have tried and found working, etc.
If you find a problem and know the solution, post about it.
During the development of this ROM, I bricked my dev MotoACTV. If you want to encourage development, use the donate button!
Enjoy!
Looking good, keep up the good work!

...Is this really happening??? ^_^
Will donate some cash come payday in a couple days. This is unreal.
So I'm excited. Thanks!
This looks amazing. I would guess no Motorola launcher and actv functions?
Either way I'm incredibly excited and will do my best to provide any productive feedback that I can.
donated 10 bucks to the motoactv fund
Me too $10 to dproldan, keep up the great work! It will be great if u could update your other ROM as well pls.
bluetooth audio
Did anyone try if audio-in (microphone) works with bluetooth headsets? It would be amazing if I could make calls with skype on this rom.
Update: I bought a mono bluetooth (non a2dp) headset and tried it with this rom and Atarii's boot.img with bluetooth profiles. Pairing was successful but neither microphone nor audio worked. I installed the BTmono app to make the headset accessible to apps other than the dialer (which works perfekt on my phone), but no sucess on the motoactv.
Can someone give some feedback on this rom especially if we can install run keeper? Thank
you

I don't think dp is going to share any info on this one until he is further along. You could flash it and see how it goes. If you don't like it you could always go back to beta9 or whatever else you like.
No posts in a while, this project still active? Or dare I say... actv? ha ha ok bad joke.
Just busy with other things...

This looks great, but is it possible to get Market on it? I downloaded the APK, but when I open Play Store it tells me I will now add a google account to the device, but when I click Yes, I get returned to home-screen..
EDIT: I see in the pictures you attached, you have Play Store, so I guess i must have done something wrong?
You have to install gapps from recovery mode.

Thanks dproldan.
Another question, how do I set a keyboard as default, everytime I reboot my watch, I have to reactivate Flit Keyboard..
tips with this rom
1) install superuser via cwm from http://androidsu.com/superuser/ , not necessary, but important for most of my uses
2) install google apps via cwm, I had trouble with the recommended 20110828, so i went with gapps-gb-20110613-signed.zip which worked first time
3) drop the lcd density so more fits on screen. I like 90, but 100 is probably more practical
4) install mx player and the recommended armv7 codecs from play store, even without hardware accel working, there's just enough oomf in there for software decoding of most sd formats
more to come
Does anyone have BT tethering working on this ROM? Is it supported by the stack? If not, is there anything I can do to try and get it working?
Further to the above question: does anyone have bluetooth anything working with this rom? When I flashed it, it seemed like the names of bluetooth devices were bugged (as in - I couldn't see any, and when I paired with something by it's code instead, any app that wanted the name just crashed).
I just want to make sure it's the rom and not something I did.
When you say bluetooth tethering, do you mean something using the watch's wifi connection? Or do you mean the watch using your phone/pc net connection?

the first time i installed reactv, my bluetooth could scan for devices and would even pair with a bluetooth headset, but would not play any sound. a few days later after i'd accidentally wiped my data in cwm instead of running a backup and restored most of my settings with titanium i noticed sound was playing through my headset.
bluetooth tethering i can't test as my other android device lost this function in the latest official update and i haven't gotten around to working around that yet
---------- Post added at 10:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:55 AM ----------
Has anyone else been able to rebuild reactv from source? i've tried following the directions and can get a compiled disk image, but it always hangs on boot before the adb service kicks in.

I've been trying, but the instructions are not as clear as they could be (especially the bits about fixing user tags in android.mk files?). It would be nice if someone who knows how to do it would put out a script.
I have a script that does what I THINK needs to be done (except for fixing the android.mk files - because I have no idea what to do there), but I'm not 100% sure, and when it gets to the point of running make, it cannot find a makefile

I've been a lurker since I got my eris back when root was a dream. Now I have quite a few things floating around my work dirs that aren't on xda or are wanted, so I figured I would start releasing some of my better/more polished things. So here is my first:
cbackup v0.4
Based upon craft_backup v0.5.3: showthread.php?t=628743 (sorry no links)
Backup and restore apps/data just like craft_backup
Changes/Features of cbackup:
- Change names to cbackup and crestore because I got tired of typing out "craft_backup" and "craft_restore"
- Move backup dir to /sdcard/backups/cbackup/*
- For cbackup, allow a choice for destination in backup dir (defaults to cb<date>)
- For cbackup, automatically move backup dir to timestamped location instead of overwriting it
- For crestore, display menu of all cbackup dirs along with original craft_backup dir if it exists. This menu has the latest last, numbered first with number 1 being the default.
- Works with roms that don't have the busybox symlinks installed
Changelog:
v0.3
- First public release
v0.4
- Fix problem when missing bb symlinks
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for damage caused by this app. I take no credit for the good work done on craft_backup, I just wanted something it didn't do so I hacked it up to suit my needs. Eventually it became nice enough to share. I will not support it, unless there is something wrong with my added code (which is possible, since the listing code is complex). Refer to the original app's thread for almost all problems.

Testing it now.
EDIT: WORKS PERFECTLY- 5 STARS.
Crestore- not found.... help?
I assume you're running "crestore" and not "Crestore" nor "Crestore-". Can you post the output of:
echo "$PATH"
from adb shell?
If that's fine, I think I know what may be wrong, but try that first
edit:
I'll be uploading a new version in a minute that I think will fix your problems, but if it doesn't, if you could also try the following it would be helpful:
# which crestore
# which sed
# echo abc | sed -es/a/d/
# ls -l /system/bin/crestore
# ls -l /system/bin/cbackup
# /system/bin/crestore
So I got it to find it, but it says not found for everything. Also comes up in Italian no matter what, but no biggie.
or use the eris master app, which can do most of that right now. the good thing is that its in a gui interface. jamezelle and i will be adding additional features later for the backup / restore apps as well. and one thing that we will have shortly is the ability to restore market update links for apps installed outside of the market.
@ECLIPS3:
Sorry, I'm a command line guy and I'm a linux guy. I really don't want to install wine and mono on my poor little linux netbook just to run your app and then navigate a gui. Plus these scripts run entirely on the phone, so you should be able to run them anywhere with only your phone (maybe even using terminal on the phone...haven't tested that yet). And before we start a war, I'm not saying that there is anything with wrong with your app, and I'm sure it has/will help a lot of people who want the easy gui, but it wasn't for me, and I thought other people may feel the same way. There's no reason both apps can't exist. I also appreciate you letting people know in this thread so the less cli-oriented people know their options.
@Erisftw:
That is really strange if it's continuing to not give you a choice for language. Are you sure you flashed the latest one that I uploaded (cbackup-v0.4-signed.zip)? And that you made your backup either using v0.4 or using v0.3 on a phone with busybox properly installed. If so could you copy and paste the first ~20 lines of output from crestore, and let me know if you are on windows or linux?
dont worry, not trying to start a flame war at all. i love diversity and competition as it creates better programs to arise, that ultimately are better for the end user. theres plenty of room for everyone here. i love CLI as well, but not a lot of people do. arent you glad this is a free world to have competition?
Changed to 4, restored. fine, but it has old rosie, and when you click on the app, it says app no longer installed.
Roebeet, Rothnic, and Myself have been hard at work to bring you what we hope will be the killer ROM for our G-Tablets. Now that we have hit BETA status, we are interested in hearing your feedback including issues and feature requests.
The projects git home is here: https://github.com/gojimi/VEGAn-TAB
(here you will find all project code and mods. we are using a free account there and space is limited so ACTUAL RELEASES will happen in the Thread that Roebeet has already started)
Issues and feature requests can be followed and posted here: https://github.com/gojimi/VEGAn-TAB/issues
(please read before posting new issues or features request so we don't fill up with duplicates. you may also vote up the issues you feel are most important and we can concentrate on those areas based on your feedback.)
The wiki for VEGAn-TAB will be here: https://github.com/gojimi/VEGAn-TAB/wiki
(there is nothing there yet.... but as we approach a production stable ROM we may be adding some info here)
Thank you for all your support and patience as we iron out some of the more major issue. (ie. SSL! phew so glad we figured that one out..... such a simple mistake too!)
I am usually buried in CODE or REWORK of current framework that I don't come up for air to check XDA much.... But I do watch the GIT Repo and I will try to make a greater effort to keep an eye on this post.
For questions to issues that you are having but others aren't your answer may still be best answered in Roebeet's post.

The single issue I am having is random factory browser crash, and It is the reason that I have kept the tablet.
Can you guys include a tun/tap module to allow OpenVPN to work?
I can't get the Ad Hoc Tether to work from my rooted Hero phone. I had it working on the Zpad with this fix: http://www.chinadigitalcomm.com/android-a81/a81e-connect-to-ad-hoc-wifi-t1413.html
Any thoughts? Anyone else able to connect to an Ad Hoc Tether?
Edit (Fix) I was using the wrong fix. The fix it to apply the wpa6_adhoc-signed.zip
This was the fix I initially did on the Zpad rom, I just messed up and did the wrong fix...
I had a problem with the sound, sdcard, fc on websites, and changing the soft buttons. It was killer despite those issues. Also rotation of the home screen.

Do you guys still been able to copy the files from laptop to G Tablet running beta? I can't do that. Is there any trick to it or you guys using 2nd SD card?

I had the same issues
I installed the WPA_adhoc-signed.zip and it solved my tethering issues. I tried to find the orginal post with the link to he downlaod but couldn't find it.
I know that there is talk of it in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842004&highlight=wpa_adhoc
and this one too

The only issue I have so far is with Grooveshark FCing. Sign up and tutorial screens work fine but the actual interface never loads. Otherwise, great work on this. Its very responsive and other than the GS FCs I have no FCs.
Thank you guys for your hard work.
Wanted to answer a few of the questions. If I forget you I apologize.
OPENVPN support- we'll look into that feature for the future. (MAY not make it into betas)
wpa_supplicant issues.ie adhoc tether. This is an oversight. Should be in next beta
Most of the sound and stock browser FCS have been fixed(Ssl now works)
SD card issues. We are aware and they are all potentially related to a hack we implemented to get external sd support working. This issue includes the internal SD disappearance when connected to pc via usb. This is my PRIMARY focus right now.
Again thank you all for your patience and feedback.
Is there a way to change the launch applications along the bottom? Even if it's a file to modify.

I plan on making a supplement or maybe a full image with the same supplicant binary in TnT Lite, plus that updated Gallery and a clean hosts file.
Working on TnT Lite 2.3.0 primarily at the moment, however. I guess I need two devices!
Another random question. .. I am on Tina lite 2.2 and find it to be super stable and flexible. I am concerned about what will happen when the battery gets to low : )
What happens with this rom when the charge runs out?
With b3 I find that I have to clear devoric cache after each shutdown or I lose the ability to run certain apps. Any suggestions?

what do i have with VEGAn Beta4??
the only issues i have with this rom is with sdcard2 or the microSD card, only when i put jpeg files in it and i open the gallery to load them and when i do a reboot all the pictures are gone from the microSD card, but just the pictures i can open the music player and play all songs and reboot and they still in there the issue is only for me with image files. After i update the kernel with the patch that has been post on the vegan beta4 topic i think this is almost perfect....i hope you can fix the files getting erased on the microSD card.....but after all you guys are doing and amazing job with all the ROMS you have made....i'm very gratefull for all the work you have done, you make love more this tablet....thanks a lot!

I've been following the progress on official Ubuntu Touch port to Galaxy Tab 10.1 for a while and today they have updated the wiki for a dedicated session and early build install instructions.
This is an early build, some things work, some things are unknown and wifi is work in progress.
Installation
1. Download the ubuntu preinstalled and the p4wifi specific cyanogenmod image from the unlock instruction section below.
2. Put both zip files onto your sdcard
3. Enter recovery mode and do a wipe data/factory reset
4. Flash in this order:
First the cyanogenmod image (e.g. cm-10.1-20130325-UNOFFICIAL-p4wifi.zip)
Then the ubuntu image (this may take a while)
5. reboot
fix screen pixel ratio (this will become obsolete once the config file is included by default):
1. download p4wifi.conf: http://ubuntuone.com/688wubidavYnvfKvBWV7cY
2. copy p4wifi.conf into /etc/ubuntu-session.d/
3. reboot
Unlocking instructions
link to images
1. Ubuntu stuff:
Current: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-to...urrent/quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip
2. CyanogenMod image:
Current: http://ubuntuone.com/6V0ZxZ8cqB2AGcF8nImrDV

Thanks, friend! I'm gonna test it soon :good:
AW: Official Ubuntu Touch for Galaxy Tab 10.1 is here!
I tried it. Installation worked fine and the first start (reboot after install) also went fine. Can't test more things than boot up right now - no time so far. I'll have a look this evening.
But why are there already users exsisting an how do i log in?
Sent from my One S using xda app-developers app
They say it's a test-only version and you can only log in to guest account...
and if you read the ubuntu-part file's name it is "quantal-PREINSTALLED", which means it is an installed image of Ubuntu that was tested on some previous devices by Ubuntu devs...
it's my thought, though...

Not sure why you're having this problem. Maybe try format everything before flashing back or use a nand backup if you have one?
I think we must put the p4wifi.conf into ubuntu-session.d folder in the quantal before we install the image, right?
The proof I can provide is that there are folders named ubuntu-session.d and data in the quantal, but they're extracted to somewhere else during installation...
Video coming soon...

My memory is a bit vague on this, but I think it's in the /ubuntu folder, as well as the rest of the filesystem. It confused the hell out of me when I had it on my Sensation, it seemed like there was an entire filesystem at the root of the storage, then another inside /ubuntu where everything seemed to be.
You could use the search in Nautilus to find it as well, just make sure it's searching all subdirectories
I had a problem adding the p4wifi.conf file to /etc/ubuntu-session.d/ folder. This is how I solved it.
My problem basically was that when using adb shell to access the device I was inside the android system. And you need to get inside the ubuntu-system.
My way to get shell access to the ubuntu-system was the following:
>adb root
>adb shell
You should now see something similar to [email protected]:/ #
Then enter:
>ubuntu_chroot shell
You should now see something similar to [email protected]:/#
You are now in the ubuntu-system.
to get the p4wifi.conf file into /etc/ubuntu-session.d I did the following:
>cd /etc/ubuntu-session.d
>echo -e "GRID_UNIT_PX=10\nQTWEBKIT_DPR=2.0\nFORM_FACTOR=\"tablet\"" | sudo tee p4wifi.conf
For some reason there is a space between " and tablet. This space should be removed! It seems as if the forum adds it when rendering my post.
Now for the changes to take effect you will need to reboot your device. You can do that by writing the following
>reboot
I hope this helped someone that just as me struggled to get the pixel-ratio fix applied to the system.
Thanks, my friend.
I'm gonna try this and then will upload a video...
if we can find the way to fix WiFi according to this post:

Yeah I read about this post too, I'm a bit busy this week but maybe I'll try it out this weekend.
I finally fixed screen pixel ratio by flashing the .zip package linked in post 15 in this thread ... simply adb push it and flash using CWM (ubuntu won't erase CWM after being flashed)...

Does iwlist work for anyone? For me it dosen't even recognise the command.
does 3G work on this?
3G doesn't work yet, but I'm testing the OS on my galaxy tab 3G
yeah, I too have tried putting userinit.sh file in /data/loca/ with no success... but note that you must put the file using ubuntu_chroot shell... did you try that?
maybe we can put the commands in afterflash-p4.zip and then flash it, like the way we solved the screen pixel ratio issue...
inform us if this method worked for you
I'm pretty sure I had this working on the NA Rom, I'm now using the Stock EU 8GB Rom and the workout app wont start when my HRM is paired..
It crashes and force closes.
However the HRM does pair, and I can see my Heartrate displayed when I use the Heart rate clock face.
Anyone experienced this ? Any fix anyone knows of ?

Reading Moto Support forums, looks like it may have stopped working in ROM upgrade to 1.7.xx Does anyone have 1.6.13 for example ?
Fix for pairing with Polar H7
Hi scoobdriver,
This problem is related to versions 1.7.x of the MotoACTV firmware. There are several posts in the Motorola forums, but no official answer from Moto for the last two years. Up to now, the only solution if you wanted to pair your H7 with the MotoACTV was to revert to 1.6.12 (the last rom working with the H7). Luckily, ClearD root tool can do that for you ("return to stock" functionality flashes 1.6.12). Please read the instructions carefully before you try to root your device if you choose to follow this path.
In my case, I decided to follow a different path and go into the code for comparing both 1.7.10/12 and 1.6.12 (the last working rom). I found out that some dev at Moto thought that a null pointer check was not necessary when setting up the activity screen, and this caused an uncaught null pointer exception and the already famous crash "Sorry. The application Workout (com.motorola.gault.activity) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." Surprisingly, it had nothing to do with BLE protocol or with any compatibility problem with Polar implementation/interpretation of BLE.
I have fixed and repackaged the conflictive apk (attached); after several tests and workouts it has not given me any problems. If you want to test it, you can update you MotoACTV to the latest rom (1.7.10/1.7.12) with MotoCast, root it (read the available excellent tutorials on how to do it, if you need), download the attached file and copy it to the device with adb:
Code:
adb remount
adb pull /system/app/Workout.apk Workout_backup.apk # (if you want to backup your original apk)
adb push Workout.apk /system/app/
adb shell chmod 644 /system/app/Workout.apk
I know it could be packaged in a more friendly (non-adb) way, but I want to make sure it really works before going on. I have tested it with ClearD rom, but it should also work for a stock rom. Anyway, be warned that rooting and playing with adb is at your own risk, as usual. In any case, If you test the modified apk and you get any undesired result, do not hesitate to come back to this post.

Thank you so much for this J*R! I just bought a motoactv just to use it with BLE accessories and none were working until I applied your APK. Straight forward very easy to follow instructions. Everything is working now.
I can't believe Motorola is not doing anything about it. Even if it's a discontinued product, it doesn't have to be a useless one....
rocos
not working
Hi and thank s for your work.
i m cleardroid rooted (1.7.10) and put your workout.apk fix on my actv...but still not ok. (Same msg: workout... crash....try again later)
First time, when i try to backup my original workout.apk in adb , the file was not founded on my actv. I push whatever your apk in system/app and everything is ok in adb. But nothing change for my problem when i try to launch a jogging.Is it possible that my actv system path is different of your example? (System/app)
i dont know if is it possible to explore the system file of my actv, at least for know where path is my original workout and replace it by your fix.
thank s man and sorry for my ugly english...i m french.

Currently using latest RR Nougat
Thankssss sir..

hy sir.. come again to report some issues
1. there's glitches in every opening apps or recent apps, ie. : i opened browser and then i opened COC or others, so i found there was glitches between switching that apps, and nearly happened in every swtching or opening apps ( i guess this aint my screen problem, never have been happened before)
2. ext sdcard issue: when i copied file from internal sdcard to external sdcard, i couldnt access my copied file immediately via my laptop, it must be unmounted fisrt (ext sdcard) then mounted back to make it accessible.
3. in owner user setting: i got my picture placing upside down than it supposed to be.
over all it works smooth and light. i hope i dont bother you with my issues report

1. I have glitches when rotating the screen, but never see them when switching apps, even when using double tapping of recent app button to fast switch between 2 most recent apps.
2. I will look into this one, however could you kindly be more elaborate that during all those steps, was your t705 mounted to you laptop thru. MTP ?
3. I could not reproduct this one neither, my avatar in owner profile now is clearly showing that the nose is below the eyes.
Thx for reporting. Keep them coming.

1 yes.. . Glitches in opening apps, and rotating it.
2. Yah, thru MTP. I can't see my file, but ext sdcard is accesible thru my laptop, but not a copied file. When i look for it into "file explorer" in my tablet, it's there. So I have to unmount-remount my ext sdcard, and even worst i have to restart my tablet then i plug in back thru my laptop to get "my copied file" accessible..

I can reproduct this one, seems to me it's an long overdue bug of Google's implementation of MTP, related to media rescan. It happened under many circumstances, see this bug report --> https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/37071807
Sadly, Google refuse to acknowledge it as a bug.
Hi Scubajeff
I am experiencing an issue with com.android.phone and android.process.acore keeps failing to respond and its having a detremental effect on the battery life.
Any ideas how to fix this ?

I ever had that issue, when i unisntalled google stock contact "Contacts.apk and ContactsProvider.apk" to replace with "zenui dialer and contact"
I guessed your issue it's related with, that your stock contact isnt installed properly
Try to flash these two .apks (Contacts.apk and ContactsProvider.apk) taken from your rom thru trwp or cwm recovery . It's solved my problem.
is there a way i can disable both phone and contacts ?
I am not on a rooted device

Its ok I have figured it out that I needed to wipe the device due to it using my previous apk's

Yes, if you are coming from other ROM, it's really, truly, absolutely important to WIPE ALL before flashing.

First, I confirm that my side distorted.
So far not bad. Both my 3G and LTE data are working fine, not sure about calls yet as I haven't tried. I do get those weird artifacts when I rotate the screen, but I've seen that on most of the Nougat 7.1 based ROMs. Nice work with the Kernel. It seems to be VERY customisable in Deathly Adiutor which is great for me. As with all Nougat based ROMs, the audio input latency is the best it's ever been. I would like the ability to enable software keys and to be able to bypass the hardware keys because as you most certainly know they have a strong tendency to interfere with this device (I keep catching them with my hand). Also, the IR blaster doesn't work AT ALL. I would like that to be fixed as Peel Smart Remote is an everyday app for me and I can't use it with this ROM.

I have to admitted that I didn't test the IR at all. Will give it a run asap. Sorry.

I can now say I can only just make a phone call with this ROM. It's echoey and almost unmanageable when it does work, but it doesn't always work (no sound, normally causes the phone to lock up and force reset upon hanging up). I really want a non-stock ROM that works, preferably Android Nougat 7.1.2 but everyone seems to get the half finished, get fed up and leave us in the dark, and then finally after 6 months mark it as discontinued (cough cough LiquidDeath). I hope you don't do that because this ROM is promising.
Edit: The locking up may have been my fault for overclocking too high.
