Compiling CM9 (and maybe CM10) for Blade

[Guest sej7278]

The guys of p500 changed much more than the cameraHal.cpp. And yes, it also saw new libs. sej7278, you basically made ​​the port full of them, right?

yes i tried to port:

HAL: https://github.com/p500/cm_device_lge_p500/commit/a7a6065d10dba260b3d90dcf6b14f36d4c87c952

preview: https://github.com/p500/cm_device_lge_p500/commit/133afb7dd235fd656d6d76e356369998fb99e73d

copying camera.p500.so to /system/lib/hw/camera.msm7x27.so doesn't work for me

weird, i'm getting a camera app and an iffy preview (not much/any better than before) and from logcat i'm just getting a load of pmem messages:

weird, I just replace camera.p500.so. I also tried replacing liboemcamera, libjpeg and libcamera but without result the apk of the camera "can not connect to camera"...

I'm compiling a new version now, just do full port.

i've got preview (and taking photo) working now just copying the camera.p500.so, seems when i did an adb push (and adb remount) it didn't work, did it from recovery and rebooted a couple of times and it worked.

LOL :P

I have preview but do not take the photo, the screen freezes (app doesn't force close).

That's good news...

i've got black screen back again now, this is absurdly intermittent!

covering the sensor doesn't work, defaults->recalibrate->reboot doesn't work, defaults on their own don't work...... only workaround is the double-power-button.

haha, couple of reboots later and it seems ok again - move the phone about a bit so it knows its being picked up. i wonder if its compass not light sensor that's iffy.

I have not tested the proximity sensor, my build is almost over and then I'll try. I doubt that the camera get to work, but without testing it is not known...

flashable zip for cm9: camera-signed.zip

and for coldfusionx/aokp: camera-cfx2-signed.zip

thanks to xda for the lib and tilal6991 for the hint. next i guess we need to port the source to blade, not just copy a blob.

has been reported to work even on 5mp libra's if you set it to use 3mp mode in the camera settings, has also been reported not to be able to actually take photo's on some (even 3mp) blades, preview seems to work on most/all phones.

its very important to wipe dalvik and reboot afterwards.

Edited April 28, 2012 by sej7278

[Guest asm19]

copy this file to /system/lib/hw/ overwriting the file that's already there (either from adb or some sort of root file manager) then wipe dalvik and reboot a couple of times.

adb reboot recovery

adb push camera.msm7x27.so /system/lib/hw/camera.msm7x27.so

<wipe dalvik>

adb reboot

i think coldfusionx calls it camera.blade.so, the above is for cm9

this flashable zip should work for cm9 (i've not tested it though): camera-signed.zip

and for coldfusionx/aokp (sorry was typo in first one): camera-cfx2-signed.zip

Yes, this will work but is not a viable/future solution only if we add with a kind of prebuild...

[Guest sej7278]

no, we need to port the source. this is a quick hack, not a fix (and doesn't work on 5 megapixel) it will get annoying doing this every time we flash lol.

hope this doesnt get messed up...

not nandroiding...takes a lot of time

cant afford to lose time ...exam time :P

[Guest targetbsp]

Anyone dared try updating to Ubuntu 12 yet then? Does it still compile?? :D

Guess I'll back up my VM and give it a go! Or at least see if I can find the snapshot option in Vmware player (if one exists?)

Hi!

I'm getting this strange error during the build:

Replace recovery_kernel in device/zte/skate with the one from out/target/product/skate/kernel.

[Guest C3C0]

Ahh... This makes sense :)

Worked a treat. Thank you.

Can anyone point me to what I have done wrong here?

I've followed the instructions exactly, and I've tried a few different things and get this each time. repo sync comes back fine, so I think I've just messed up somewhere else along the line.

hey sej, tilal, I've been away for a while since my phone almost died (the ROM zip file on the SDCard got corrupted and I flashed it, had no vol keys to go to recovery and it wouldn't recognize the device when connecting to PC, had to do an ugly hack with the metal inputs for the volume keys on the phone itself).

what about the black screen on call? I see it still gets reports on the AOKP thread and the camera is almost working?

[Guest tilal6991]

I fixed black screen by switching back to my own kernel. Also camera is gettings there but also has serious issues like battery drain.

I think something in your kernel re-introduces the airplane reboot bug though cause I tried putting into my cm9/cfx mix I'd made following Sej's guide. And your latest CFX also reboots on airplane. Mind you, receiving calls is more important than airplane mode. :D
