Guest Sebastian404 Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 i was wondering if anybody is interested in making an unofficial build for the blade Are you offering?
Guest olionair Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 Are you offering? well i have a friend on the cyanogen mod team and me and him are looking into it
Guest BArtNimal Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 well i have a friend on the cyanogen mod team and me and him are looking into it that would be great. i think someone started working on a port (tom g if i remember correctly) only help i can offer is testing, and would do that gladly.
Guest Matty-p Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 well i have a friend on the cyanogen mod team and me and him are looking into it interesting will keep an eye on this thread
Guest cobhc Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 Yeah, Tom started a CM6 port, but ran into the same problem as a lot of other ports and had serious RIL problems.
Guest Comas Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 (edited) I´m waiting 4 this all time, Godo look, i can test in my tft too, if someone prepare the room, great room are Cyanogen. I have Boston an rocks... Edit; Here are a great room´s too... No offense. Edited January 10, 2011 by Comas
Guest Cirno Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 This sounds too good to be true, but still wondering Cyanogen mod 7 will be based by the AOSP version 2.3 right?
Guest Frankish Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 This sounds too good to be true, but still wondering Cyanogen mod 7 will be based by the AOSP version 2.3 right? Yeah CM7 is based on 2.3... We won't get ports of any other roms until we get RIL working properly. On a side note where is your username from?
Guest ololizoz Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 Interesting thread. Subscribing :D
Guest vareBlade Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 Man crossing fingers for this to work :D
Guest tom619 Posted January 10, 2011 Report Posted January 10, 2011 Slightly OT but didnt the guys at ZTE say we would get the kernel source on the 7th? And i mean the uk blade not the 003Z blade
Guest gusthy Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 Slightly OT but didnt the guys at ZTE say we would get the kernel source on the 7th? And i mean the uk blade not the 003Z blade Sure, UK blade is not 003Z blade, and for UK blade there is no official froyo, so there cannot be official kernel source. Anyways, why do you need an other kernel source? This one seems okay, considering flb and kk could build very nice froyos on top of that.
Guest Rotmann Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 Sure, UK blade is not 003Z blade, and for UK blade there is no official froyo, so there cannot be official kernel source. Anyways, why do you need an other kernel source? This one seems okay, considering flb and kk could build very nice froyos on top of that. Because there are still many RIL lib problems, the chinese and the japanese blades are pretty different to our blades.
Guest gusthy Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 Because there are still many RIL lib problems, the chinese and the japanese blades are pretty different to our blades. What RIL problems do we have?
Guest Krinyo Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 I don't see any RIL problems on my Froyo Blade, so what is the showstopper for CM7 or another 2.3 ginger builds?
Guest Matty-p Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 Because there are still many RIL lib problems, the chinese and the japanese blades are pretty different to our blades. As in no ril
Guest Tom G Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 (edited) Because there are still many RIL lib problems, the chinese and the japanese blades are pretty different to our blades. The RIL problems have nothing to do with kernel source (I don't know why I bother repeating this, no one listens). Edited January 11, 2011 by Tom G
Guest Rotmann Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 The RIL problems have nothing to do with kernel source (I don't know why I bother repeating this, no one listens). :D sorry. Could you explain then why we are not able to get special ROMs? Like CM or MIUI.
Guest mrflibbles Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 (edited) We were listening. (Or at least I was). From what I gleamed from your posts : Android's Radio Interface Layer (RIL) provides an abstraction layer between Android telephony services (android.telephony) and radio hardware. You can see from the diagram that the Kernel and the RIL are quite separate. While the Kernel is open-source large parts of Android can be modified without releasing source or information. I think from reading normally the hardware customisation is done only in the vendor RIL (system/libs/libril_vendor.so) but on the Blade for some reason ZTE have modified the telephony framework (java/android/telephony). This makes telephony and RIL interfaces for the Blade different to AOSP used by CM. If we could work out why and how they changed the telephony framework then we could modify AOSP but that is a difficult task unless ZTE developers give us the information. Is that right? I'd be curious to know more details about how you know the telephony framework has changed? (i.e. things just don't compile?) Edited January 11, 2011 by mrflibbles
Guest cobhc Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 That sounds about right from what I've gleamed from Tom as well. I'm sure he tried another branch also rather than AOSP and still had problems.
Guest rjm2k Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 Had anyone investigated qcrilhook.jar and qcnvitems.jar, maybe the changes to the framework are minimal and simply call through to those jars?
Guest mrflibbles Posted January 11, 2011 Report Posted January 11, 2011 (edited) There is an interesting (albeit high level) presentation from Qualcomm which includes RIL here : (Starts at page 23) http://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&q=ca...ppEaA&pli=1 Edited January 11, 2011 by mrflibbles
