Bugginess is due to services crashing in the background and also its not 64bit rootfs primarily media-hub and location that 'might' get fixed when somebody gets apparmor working...

Thanks for the guide, any way to fix those crashes?

Yeah everything should work eventually, its mostly app-armor, the system expects it and its not in kernel ... so things can be fixed in linuxy way ofc through terminal for example gps is a permission issue (idk why) but have to dip into sources and rebuild the system and make our own device adaptation

I think I found something that could help with apparmor:
http://www.mardy.it/blog/2019/07/notes-on-porting-the-samsung-j3-to-halium-+-ubports.html
Scroll where it says "building the kernel", it mentions something about enabling apparmor

Hello, apparmor has been fixed... so far
No camera and no mtp usb , no flashlight , rest of hardware works
The build has some bugs like can't change volume during calls and similar small things that matter for daily use case... and then there is an overall slowness of the os ...
I'm doing multiple builds everyday trying to fix camera , if you want to try and use the latest build i can upload it for you

That would be cool, the only thing that changes is the hybris-boot.img, right?

Aight, if there's a tutorial of how to update the device tree and the kernel and build it so you don't have to upload it would be better (if it doesn't take too much to build)

I have the same specs, so I'll try future builds, as It's faster than downloading

[APP] Compiled lynx binary for android - Shell or ADB

I've searched the web, and found no lynx binaries for android, so I set out to compile it myself.
For the uninitiated, lynx is a text-based browser. No images, no javascript, no flash. Just pure content.
You can use it by connecting to your phone through adb, telnet, ssh or a shell on the phone itself.

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This is lynx version 2.8.8 with ncurses 5.9
I pretty much just followed the instructions at http://www.embedu.org/Column/Column294.htm, and added a flag to make the linking static. No code changes were required.
Installation instructions
Root is not required.
You need to unzip the file on the /sdcard folder. The following files must exist:
/sdcard/lynx/lynx.cfg
/sdcard/lynx/lynx.lss
/sdcard/lynx/cache/
Then you need to move the binary to /data/local (or /system/xbin if you want something more permanent. Then you'd need root)
and run this command:
chmod 755 /data/local/lynx
Then run :
/data/local/lynx
and enjoy!
Additional information
If you want to put these files somewhere else, you must redefine the following variables, respectively:
LYNX_CFG (eg: export LYNX_CFG=/system/etc/lynx.cfg)
LYNX_LSS (eg: export LYNX_LSS =/system/etc/lynx.lss)
TMPDIR (eg: export TMPDIR =/cache)
If you receive an error message about the terminal, you need to configure a terminal.
Here are some instruction (for nano, but it works the same)
Sources are at the following addresses:
http://lynx.browser.org/
http://www.gnu.org/s/ncurses/
reserved
soon get the flash-able package
Thanks! I installed this on my ZTE Blade with 2.3.4 Gingerbread, but after setting everything in Terminal Emulator, I get these errors:
Alert!: Unable to connect to remote host.

Awesome
Will be testing on my thunderbolt later today. I'll let you guys know how it goes.
However, would you mind reposting this on RW, or would you mind if I were to repost it and link back?
[EDIT] In having just configured everything, I also get the error from the post above. It seems as though lynx thinks it doesn't have internet access. This is the case on 3g and wireless networks. Let me know if you want me to test anything for you.[/EDIT]
All the best,

Looks great.
May I add that to my script ?

Well, I was able to install it from a chrooted ubuntu 10.10 distro on my device. It's already compiled for ARM on ports.ubuntu.com, so maybe it's not so exclusive.

Nice. Can you point me to the correct file? I got as far as http://ports.ubuntu.com/pool/universe/l/lynx-cur/, but I don't know which one contains the binary.
While this is quite cool, why lynx? Why not elinks? It has much better layout capabilities. It has tabs! It even has javascript.

Node.JS + Firefox OS

Hello everyone.
I think, the biggest problem of Firefox OS is no implemented Unix Commands. That make many restrictions, for example, you can't change your CPU Governor, move applications to SD Card etc.
So, I have been thinking about it. I Created a project of "Root" (Can I use this term?) for B2G. Here is:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Node.JS starts with B2G and receiving commands from Webapp via SocketIO and created library. Why I used NodeJS? At first, instalation is just copy&paste, permissions for Node and edit b2g.sh file, the second, that allows a large expansion.
So, what do you thinking about this? Maybe do you have better solution?
The target audience of Firefox OS are entry-level smartphone users, and the platform APIs are those of the Web. So it will never have full Unix power.
Your ideas for hacking a local desktop power-user version are interesting though. I like the idea of hacking Node.js + Firefox OS to build a web-platform development distro!

Do you have Access to folder: /data/media/0/multirom/roms ? On this location can you find folder internal or cyanogenmod?
Your device is flo "wifi" or deb "LTE"?
If you have this path and folders you can install Debian manualy.
You must have busybox installed!

I Now I have a working GUI with root privileges, thank you Szybol! Even a wireless keyboard and mouse works, with the USB plug on the other end of an OTG cable. The next is to get the wifi and mobile network working...
The point all this is to have dock station with some usb's.
Wireless keyboard, mouse.
And hdmi to monitor, tv.
Of course OS must support second screen.
bluetooth devices
Has anyone test bluetooth keyboard and mouse yet ?
Considering before install
Does it have the same bugs, that the native Arch port had, like issues with rotating the screen or breaking the whole system while updating it? Does the framebuffer output work?
Tried pairing my bluetooth keyboard, sadly it fails everytime for me
Is there anyway to set screen rotation to horizontal? Tried that, but it made Debian crash

The driver that is being used for hardware acceleration (freedreno) does not support rotation on our GPU (Adreno 3xx). Unfortunately, when tried, the driver crashes and takes the entire X-Server with it. If you look in the arch thread, you can find that I had even attempted building freedreno from source with the hope that upstream has this issue fixed, but sadly they do not. That said, the framebuffer works, it's just that the refresher built into the MSM driver is broken. So a separate software refresher needs to be used in order to see anything via the FB. If you don't care much about hardware acceleration, you can easily install an alternative framebuffer driver such as fbturbo or the like, however you'll need to do some hacky work to get X to initialize properly with them. In my custom arch image, I had to make a systemd unit that first started X using a freedreno configuration file, then killed X and started it properly using fbturbo in order to get it to work properly.

It uses the wifi configurations of your android tablet. So if you have your wifi configured on the android it should connect automatically on Debian. (even if it doesn't indicate so)

Guide: How to build the kernel for your Honor 7

Huawei have helpfully released the kernel source for the Honor 7 on their download site. Impressively, the version posted there (3.10.86) actually matches the current release build (B330). However, the download itself is only part of the puzzle - it's important to then know how to compile it and use it. Hence this guide.
Some points to note first of all...
This guide refers to building on Linux. You can probably build on OSX or whatever too but seriously, it's less pain in the long run to spin up an Ubuntu VM.
There is a readme file in the kernel download with build instructions. Don't follow it... it won't work. You will end up with a built kernel, but it won't flash to your device due to the size of the file created by the 4.9 toolchain. Strange I know.
In the download linked above, as well as the kernel, there are some other bits and pieces (some of which are quite bizarre). I've mirrored the kernel to Bitbucket, so you don't need to grab the whole download.
Got that? OK, so here's a step by step on how to build the kernel! I strongly recommend building stock first and testing that works for you, then you can start adding your tweaks in. I'm interested to hear what you add / change!
Open a terminal window on your Linux machine / in your Linux VM. No GUIs here. Change to the directory where you want the kernel / toolchain to live.
First of all, we're going to clone the toolchain from AOSP.
Code:
git clone https://android.googlesource.com/platform/prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/aarch64/aarch64-linux-android-4.8
Next we're going to clone the kernel source itself from my git repo on bitbucket.
Code:
git clone https://bitbucket.org/paulobrien/android_kernel_honor7.git
We need to add the toolchain location to the path.
Code:
export PATH=$(pwd)/aarch64-linux-android-4.8/bin:$PATH
We need to specify that we are cross compiling for arm64.
Code:
export CROSS_COMPILE=$(pwd)/aarch64-linux-android-4.8/bin/aarch64-linux-android-
Let's create a directory for our output to go in to.
Code:
mkdir out
We've got the kernel downloaded, so let's change to that directory so we're ready to go.
Code:
cd android_kernel_honor7
A bit of cleaning up before we get started...
Code:
make ARCH=arm64 O=../out mrproper
Specify that we're building for PLK (Plank = H7)...
Code:
make ARCH=arm64 O=../out hw_PLK_defconfig
And build it!
Code:
make ARCH=arm64 O=../out -j8
When this process completes, we can check the '../out' directory and you should find the file arch/arm64/boot/Image. This is the kernel that you've just built! You can't flash it as is though, you need to put it into a boot image first.
Here's how you do it...
Change out of the kernel directory back to its parent.
Code:
cd ..
Download tools for manipulating the boot image.
Code:
git clone https://github.com/xiaolu/mkbootimg_tools.git
Download the stock boot image (actually we're using the root ready version for convenience).
Code:
wget -O boot.img http://nigella.modaco.com/files/boot.policypatched.b330.img
Extract the boot image.
Code:
mkbootimg_tools/mkboot boot.img boot.extracted
Copy the new kernel into the extracted boot folder.
Code:
cp out/arch/arm64/boot/Image boot.extracted/kernel
Build a new boot image.
Code:
mkbootimg_tools/mkboot boot.extracted boot.newkernel.img
You now have a new boot image (boot.newkernel.img). All that's left is to flash it to your device! Reboot to bootloader (either using 'adb reboot bootloader' or by powering on with volume down held), flash using 'fastboot flash boot boot.newkernel.img' and then reboot using 'fastboot reboot'. Job done! In the About screen of settings you should see the date of the new kernel and details of your build machine.
Well Done mate! Can we be hopefull about a sort of unoffical cm?

Not sure this really helps with that. It's not something I'm looking at atm anyway I'm afraid (due to time constraints).

A quick note on building with the 4.9 toolchain - basically, the boot image that gets created is too big. This can be resolved by deleting unnecessarily PNGs in ramdisk/res/images/charger.

cant a new kernel be used to extend the battery life?

[ROM][WIP]Plasma Mobile for Xiaomi Mi3[cancro]

Hello guys, i've successfully built plasma mobile for Xiaomi MI3.
First, you need to download my images: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1koCdOk7G3KX_rNlFzuObro1OVb4XRCS8 plasma caf rootfs: http://images.plasma-mobile.org/caf-rootfs/ and some scripts: https://github.com/JBBgameich/halium-install
Reboot your device to recovery and run this command: ./halium-install <pm rootfs path> <system.img path> pm
When finished flash boot.img, reboot the phone and take it connected to the pc
Every boot took ~5 minutes so wait and run this command in background while : ; do lsusb -v 2>/dev/null | grep -Ee 'iSerial +[0-9]+ +[^ ]' ; done (This command is in loop) when you'll see "Gnu/Linux" your phone is booted.
Once booted we need to connect to it with ssh, so run this command Connect.py -p ssh -u phablet
When we are connected we need to disable rsyslog and remove all logs (it fills up all the memory) so run these 3 commands: systemctl disable rsyslog | rm /var/log/syslog | rm /var/log/Kern.log
Now we need to connect to internet enable wifi echo sta > /sys/module/wlan/parameters/fwpath and connect to the network nmtui
Ok now we must create udev rules or plasma GUI doesn't work so change directory cd /etc/udev/rules.d/ and wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/h...cf/usr/lib/lxc-android-config/70-cancro.rules
We have to resolve apt problems so edit this file /etc/passwd and replace this _apt: x :114:65534::/nonexistent:/bin/false with this _apt: x :0:65534::/nonexistent:/bin/false
When you have modified it, run apt update and reboot it systemctl reboot
Tadaaa you have got plasma on Mi3!

P.s Sorry for my bad English, this is my first porting and camera doesn't work yet... Don't do apt upgrade or you will break the installation!
Please screenshots...
it have some big problem with camera and audio... Don't do apt upgrade or you will break the installation!

@Mattia990 Okay. I understood. Porting was successful. But there is no audio and the camera does not work. Unfortunately, audio is very important for telephoning ... Good work! I wish you a successful sequel!
Great
Wow
Good work
Good, but very deep linux...
...I think not adjustable for an average user.
Images updated!
Fixed audio, now works very well.
any instructions for multirom??
@Mattia990
Dear Developer genius!
Please give us a video tutorial (if possible)
We are very curious
But we're stupid for deep linux
Certainly I can not solve it on my own
Thanks: JJ
Great work and many many thanks for the hard work. It should be easy for common man to install it.
Woow interesting port, you'll continue maintaining this port? if you need help I'm not a developer of android but I use gentoo linux and I know about build a system xD

I will realize two tutorial, one for plasma and another for ubuntu, as soon as possible.
Now ubuntu has some critical bugs so i'll try to resolve them and then i will post the tutorials.

NICE, but we just saw only pictures and deep-linux until now...it is not too userfriendly...
I'm very proud of you. It is a great honor for you to deal with such an old phone. We are looking forward to the tutorial and the ROM.
