[NEWS]Gingerbread comes.

[Guest vekkio]

good work roggin

i wait for the fix :(

[Guest Morris Lee]

I got one more question, how does this run on the nand? EXT4 like gingerbread originally intended? or due to old kernal it will run on YAFFS?

[Guest AlterI]

Every suggestion and comment are welcome. :(

Thanks to roggin, Andrea and everyone involved for the great job! The room is already great.

What I found in the room. (released by roggin on the 26th of December and flashed above off. unlocked for 256m 2.2)

'+'

looks fast, (fast boot, in Yandex map application difference with 2.2 is great, restoring withTitaniumBackup looked very fast)

multi-touch is ok, even dragging with 2 fingers. (peculiarity of our hardware is still there but I got used with it)

GSM, EDGE is ok. No loss of signal detected.

BT stereo headset was connected but music wasn't redirected (My failure is not excluded)

'-'

once freezed during boot on CM logo

WIFI doesn't work

Can't disable haptic feedback (feedback on press and release)

Music wasn't redirected to my BT headset (My failure is not excluded)

Only 2G option is not working. (becomes unchecked after reboot)

3d drawer in LauncherPro isn't responsible for touch.

Can't adjust sensitivity for the 4 buttons (and it is low for me)

USB mass storage not working

Auto brightness not working

Prox sensor doesn't work during a call

Quadrant 3d test failed. 2d image was cut at the bottom. Other results were somewhat near average

AHHA! I was JUST wondering if it is included in this ROM, XD

[Guest Andrea1Liquid]

We tested and USB mounting works for both roggin and me

Good progress. Here are my suggestions:

-Remove ADW Launcher and replace it with stock 2.3 launcher

-Remove ROM Manager - it Force Closes

-Remove Terminal emulator, Spare Parts and Dev Tools: make it the most AOSP possible

-Can't install any apks...it says that there aren't any certificates available

-Insert new animations (don't know why there aren't in this rom, they are by default in Gingerbread)

-My device seems to not go to H. Stays only in 3G.

-Can't login in Google account, maybe it's related on above bug

Confirmed USB Mount not working: when you click on the notifications, you'll see for some moments the splash screen but it auto-hides

+1 to the top 3 suggestions!!

[Guest MCAlex]

Terminal Emulator is a Must-Have.

I think they mustn't remove it.

[Guest simoneser]

You can download it from Market, or they can provide a separate pack for 3rd party app, or move 3rd party apps to /data/app so you can remove them easily if you don't need them.

[Guest tmp_do]

u can remove it easily from system too

[Guest Andrea1Liquid]

Guys, another tip for who wants to compile gingerbread (on ubuntu 10.10) is that he has not to install jkd5 and neither openjdk6 because jdk6 is preinstalled on Ubuntu.

If you get something like:

============================================


build/core/base_rules.mk:74: *** Module name: bravo-keypad.kcm


build/core/base_rules.mk:75: *** Makefile location: device/htc/bravo


build/core/base_rules.mk:76: *


build/core/base_rules.mk:77: * Each module must use a LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS in its


build/core/base_rules.mk:78: * Android.mk. Possible tags declared by a module:


build/core/base_rules.mk:79: *


build/core/base_rules.mk:80: *     optional, debug, eng, tests, samples


build/core/base_rules.mk:81: *


build/core/base_rules.mk:82: * If the module is expected to be in all builds


build/core/base_rules.mk:83: * of a product, then it should use the


build/core/base_rules.mk:84: * "optional" tag:


build/core/base_rules.mk:85: *


build/core/base_rules.mk:86: *    Add "LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS := optional" in the


build/core/base_rules.mk:87: *    Android.mk for the affected module, and add


build/core/base_rules.mk:88: *    the LOCAL_MODULE value for that component


build/core/base_rules.mk:89: *    into the PRODUCT_PACKAGES section of product


build/core/base_rules.mk:90: *    makefile(s) where it's necessary, if


build/core/base_rules.mk:91: *    appropriate.


build/core/base_rules.mk:92: *


build/core/base_rules.mk:93: * If the component should be in EVERY build of ALL


build/core/base_rules.mk:94: * products, then add its LOCAL_MODULE value to the


build/core/base_rules.mk:95: * PRODUCT_PACKAGES section of


build/core/base_rules.mk:96: * build/target/product/core.mk


build/core/base_rules.mk:97: *


build/core/base_rules.mk:98: *** user tag detected on new module - user tags are only supported on legacy modules.  Stop.[/codebox]

you can fix that by replacing “LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS := user” in every Android.mk with “LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS := optional”. You can do that by typing that on the terminal: "find ./ -exec grep -l "LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS := user" {} \; -exec sed -i.bak s/"LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS := user"/"LOCAL_MODULE_TAGS := optional"/g {} \;".

After that you have to downgrade to gcc 4.3 because 4.4 produces errors. You can do this by typing that on the terminal:

[codebox]rm /usr/bin/gcc
rm /usr/bin/g++
ln -s /usr/bin/gcc-4.3 /usr/bin/gcc
ln -s /usr/bin/g++-4.3 /usr/bin/g++

Then you can compile with the known commands :(

I hope to be helpful ;)

Great work guys, USB mount works for me under OSX, really good experience so far (without Wifi/BT/Cam but it is not that important :()

[Guest snootched]

We tested and USB mounting works for both roggin and me

Hi Andrea - I confirmed on my liquid E that after initial flash of the ROM - USB mounting works fine for me. Once I swap the symlink around for dalvik-cache (I basically 'ln -s /cache/dalvik-cache /data/dalvik-cache') as after initial flash+boot /cache only has ~8MB free. After this swap - USB mount does not work.. really odd. Upon reboot the cache did regenerate properly. I will mess around with it a bit more today and report back.

[Guest bais]

Waiting for Wifi fix to try, since I don't have a data plan.

Great job :(

[Guest koudelka]

Good progress. Here are my suggestions:

-Remove ADW Launcher and replace it with stock 2.3 launcher

-Remove ROM Manager - it Force Closes

-Remove Terminal emulator, Spare Parts and Dev Tools: make it the most AOSP possible

-Can't install any apks...it says that there aren't any certificates available

-Insert new animations (don't know why there aren't in this rom, they are by default in Gingerbread)

-My device seems to not go to H. Stays only in 3G.

Both dev tools and spare parts are apart of AOSP :( but I agree it should at least be moved to the data partition but I dont think this was meant as a real release, just demo of what is working ;)

[Guest akira.pwr]

USB don't works for me, rom runs fast, I can't sync with twitter, nice work anyway guys. :(

[Guest Mascherano]
