ladogajalyst: i just logged in fine09:33
dm8tbrjalyst: try #maemo ?09:33
jalystbizarre, im no longer able to log in for some reason…. :-/09:34
thedead1440jalyst try logging in via forums.internettablettalk.com09:44
jalystno go, 4 out of 5 login attempts now failed...09:45
thedead1440ok use the ip directly09:45
thedead1440http://188.117.59.209/09:45
jalystall good, seems to be a bug with the pwd manager/form filler I'm using!09:53
thedead1440Hurrian: ping10:01
Hurrianthedead1440: pong10:01
thedead1440Hurrian: any progress with the tar from n95010:02
thedead1440I read you had an issue with booting it up; so does it mean no go?10:02
Hurrianit seems that when launching /sbin/init, there's some sort of component it depends on, which is unfulfilled, and kicks the WDT immediately10:02
thedead1440watchdog can't be disabled before trying it on?10:03
HurrianTried it with WD off using flasher --enable-rd-mode, and this time it hung10:03
HurrianI tried duplicating the functions done by Dali's preinit, still a no-go.10:03
HurrianNote that I tried it with the PR1.3 Openmode kernel, which may have changed significantly from the Dali's really old kernel.10:04
thedead1440ah true10:04
thedead1440any idea what does /var/lib/aegis/.bb5-emu.xml do? The code is for? From what i gather it seems to be an unlocking code; is that all that it is?10:04
Hurrianhmm, lemme take a look at it10:05
Hurrianwell, I guess it's simply what it says on the tin10:06
HurrianBB5 emulator, probably for testing phone functions10:06
Hurrianand probably needed a matching emulator kernel module10:07
thedead1440ah10:07
Hurrianon an unrelated note, the Android source tree is the most convoluted piece of **** I've seen10:09
thedead1440:D10:10
Hurrianall the managed names are horribly undescriptive10:10
thedead1440Let's say Android requires one to be very dedicated :D10:10
Hurriansee, I was building 4.2.1 ROMs for my tablet, and found that Google has forced the shoddy phablet UI on all tablet users10:10
Hurrianthe solution: Make SystemUI crash on pressing certain UI elements on an older Android version (4.1.2), so I would be able to figure out the location in the source10:11
thedead1440the fsck!10:11
HurrianNow knowing the location in the source, it was simply a matter of bypassing ifs to return certain true values10:12
thedead1440ah10:12
thedead1440building for which tablet; if I may ask?10:12
Hurriantl;dr true Tablet UI was all still there, Google just felt like being shitty and not allowing us to choose it using a build system macro like USE_TABLET_UI := true10:13
Hurrianthedead1440: Galaxy Tab 8.9 (p5), a shrunken down brother to the Galaxy Tab 10.1 (p4)10:13
thedead1440ah the 8.910:13
HurrianI think the appropriate reaction, in certain Internet image boards, would be "Google pls"10:13
thedead1440haha10:14
Hurrianalso, the default toolchain included with the Android source, for lack of a better word, blows.10:15
thedead1440That's what rankles me with Android always; it always has to be a Google-led effort... Only CM seem to be doing very well but then they have unofficial Google support10:15
thedead1440hehe10:15
Hurrianarm-linux-*, version 4.410:15
Hurrianthey announced they were moving to gcc 4.6 on 4.0's launch10:15
HurrianAnd here we are at 4.2, still using the old toolchain.10:16
thedead1440but they get away with it10:16
HurrianEverybody knows it blows, even the major Android handset OEMs build with Codesourcery GCC 4.6, and most ROM/Kernel builders use Linaro 4.7.110:17
thedead1440:D10:17
HurrianNot to mention that newer kernels, such as in the 3.5 series and up have stricter aliasing and guards, and break when building against GCC 4.410:18
HurrianSo one way or another, you're going to be forced to somehow obtain a new toolchain10:19
thedead1440its going in circles :D10:19
HurrianWhich isn't easy, as the toolchain path is redefined multiple times in the build scripts10:20
thedead1440what a pita10:20
thedead1440ROM building also can cause strange issues; on my S2 yesterday i was using CM's nightlies and for some reason sending an image via Whatsapp sends a distorted and mangled image to the recipent10:21
thedead1440thought I must have messed something up but then its a known issue on the nightly i was using10:22
HurrianBlame Samsung for that, I've been having funky issues ever since Codeworkx made the switch to 3.0 kernel series10:22
thedead1440I've kinda decided more or less to use the leaked JB-rom for S3 adapted to the S210:22
thedead1440touchwiz takes flak but that ROM is the first time i've found touchwiz useful10:23
HurrianThe problem is that many GB-era HAL modules and drivers are still being used since Samsung renamed HAL functions to TW-specific ones in their ICS10:23
thedead1440my S2 is my third phone; for the apps I ever need and making some calls every now and then so i can live with touchwiz10:23
thedead1440ah no wonder; Samsung seem to have stuck alot of things on GB-era things10:24
Hurrianno, Samsung was being a dick by renaming calls without any technical reason - e.g. do_shit() became sec_do_shit()10:24
thedead1440idiots10:25
HurrianIt would be massively impractical to patch the /entire/ code base to call sec_*, samsung_* etc. functions, so Codeworkx simply made shims for GB libs to work on ICS and above10:25
thedead1440that's a recipe for disaster :D10:26
HurrianAnd speaking of Touchwiz - the official ICS ROM for my tablet leaves ~4MB on the /system partition after installation, whereas CM10.1 leaves ~300MB.10:27
Hurrian(With GAPPS installed!)10:27
thedead1440haha10:27
thedead1440the  one i use is pretty smooth; must be due to the ROM-dev having adapted it to S2 hence giving good system space as well as bringing over useful touches10:28
thedead1440Receiving a notification on the status bar; i have the button there itself to call the contact or reply to the message or to forward; good way to minimize processes10:28
HurrianOh, and the last biggest problem I had today: "repo" choking on the git being updated too fast/changes pulled and not synced properly for some reason10:29
thedead1440:p10:29
thedead1440haha10:29
HurrianThe /entire/ 12GB source tree was spoilt.10:29
thedead1440this somehow doesn't seem to every be able to be improved by Google10:29
HurrianHaving a maximum download speed of 200KB/s, I was not happy.10:30
thedead1440hehe10:30

ladogawhere can i safely execute commands at startup on non-openmode device? what i have here is n9 with inception ...in openmode i would probably just edit /etc/init.d/rcS and add those commands there.19:44
