d3tul3i gotta hit the sack - i'll put some debugging messages in there tomorrow to see exactly where it fails00:01
hycok ttyl00:01
d3tul3thanks for figuring this out00:01
*** d3tul3 has quit IRC00:01
*** Tandy-Rhod210 has joined #xdandroid00:35
Tandy-Rhod210Here I am on my Rhod210 with OMGB from NAND00:36
*** ke- has joined #xdandroid00:36
hycwoohoo00:36
hychow's it working?00:36
Tandy-Rhod210Works great, stable, pretty fast.00:36
Tandy-Rhod210Texting works, calling works...00:36
hycgreat00:37
Tandy-Rhod210Video camera has a tendency to crash00:37
hyctendency? has it ever worked? it always crashes for me00:37
hyc100% of the time...00:37
Tandy-Rhod210My battery life is shit, but I think thats the fault of my battery moreso than android.00:37
Tandy-Rhod210Dunno, only ever tried twice00:37
hyc(GBX0B. Worked fine on frx07)00:37
Tandy-Rhod210Ah00:38
hycI'd say video camera is 100% broken then00:38
Tandy-Rhod210Yeah. It worked on B00:38
Tandy-Rhod210Erm00:38
Tandy-Rhod210Frx07, I dunno about gbx0a or gbx0b, though.00:38
Tandy-Rhod210But I have a custom CM7 theme chooser theme installed and everything. Now I want to go out and buy a TP2 thats in better condition :P00:40
Tandy-Rhod210Would I be able to use a sprint tp2 with nand omgb on t-mobile?00:40
hycnope00:40
Tandy-Rhod210Darn00:40
hycor, no 3G anyway00:40
hycand you would first need to get it US-unlocked00:40
hycotherwise it wouldn't have any US 3G frequencies00:41
hycerrr00:41
hycit would have no US GSM00:41
Tandy-Rhod210Damn you tmobile, why couldnt you have a friggin 3.5mm headphone jack like a sane carrier-customized phone?!?!00:41
Tandy-Rhod210Does the att version have a headphone jack?00:42
hycdunno00:42
Tandy-Rhod210Hmm00:42
hyci think only cdma phones have it00:42
Tandy-Rhod210Google time!00:42
Tandy-Rhod210Oh, of course they do00:42
hycso, maybe it would work ok, but no 3G... that would get annoying...00:43
Tandy-Rhod210Yeah, especially since I'm wanting to buy data service soon...00:46
hycheh you don't have it yet? tmo unlimited data is one of the best bargains around00:46
Tandy-Rhod210Yeah00:47
Tandy-Rhod210Right now I have a monthly4g unlmtd text plan. $15/mo00:47
hycI don't think I have unlim text, but 400/month is more than i need00:48
Tandy-Rhod210Parents refuse to pay for my phone service, but I'm wanting to do some number porting magic and get the $35/mo unlmtd text/data and 300min00:48
Tandy-Rhod210They only give you that deal if youre a new customer, so I'm gonna sign up again, get the plan, then port my number to google voice, then to the new tmo account :D00:51
hycgawd....00:51
Tandy-Rhod210Lol00:54
Tandy-Rhod210Worst-case scenario is I have to tell all two of the people that text me that I have a new number.00:55

helicopter88Klej: What's your issue10:00
rpierce99don't ask to ask10:00
KlejCan you tell is HTC TOUCH supported XDANDROID ???10:00
helicopter88HTC touch is the one before the diamond?10:00
KlejYeah10:00
helicopter88then,i assume no10:00
Klejhm...10:01
Klejhttp://www.howtogeek.com/howto/20703/run-android-on-your-windows-mobile-phone/10:01
Klejlook at this10:01
Klej:S10:01
Klejmy phone is a vogue10:01
rpierce99it's really hard to work from marketing names like touch, the hardware support is based on device ids10:01
*** Tandy-Rhod210 has quit IRC10:01
Klejwhat xdandroid i need to install to test it ???10:01
Klejwith haret.exe10:02
helicopter88Klej: Look at the supported phones under xdandroid10:02
KlejI'm using some wing linux but there's no wifi,gsm..10:03
helicopter88Klej: since you don't have a problem with xdandroid10:04
helicopter88this isn't the proper channel10:04
rpierce99Klej: that article does not say xdandroid supports your phone10:04
Klejcan you give me a link to download10:04
Klejto test it10:04
rpierce99they happened to use an xdandroid download file for their phone, and said at the bottom that the htc touch is well supported, but that's by a different distro10:05
rpierce99is yours the touch cdma?10:05
Klejwhat is cdma ?10:05
rpierce99the type of network you connect to10:05
Klejwifi10:05
helicopter88Klej: are you from USA or from europe?10:05
Klejfrom europe10:06
helicopter88Russia?10:06
KlejBosnia and Herzegovina10:06
helicopter88you shouldn't be CDMA10:06
rpierce99all of the android dev on the touch was for the cdma variant10:06
Klejhm...10:06
rpierce99there isn't even an android dev section for the gsm touch, the "elf"10:06
rpierce99you need to find out if you have a vogue or an elf10:07
Klejwell10:07
Kleji was downloaded any android and it works10:07
Klejcalled wing linux10:07
Klejbut there's no wifi,gsm :S10:07
Klejalso booted with haret.ext10:07
Klejharet.exe*10:07
rpierce99which, if it was developed for a cdma phone and you have a gsm phone, makes complete sense10:07
helicopter88Klej: this isn't the channel about wing linux,and do you have an "elf" ?10:07
rpierce99which is why you need to know what phone you have10:08
rpierce99if you have a vogue it will never connect to GSM10:08
Kleji have htc touch10:08
rpierce99if you have an Elf it has the GSM hardware, but i don't think any android dev has been done on it10:08
Klejhttp://www.gsmarena.com/htc_touch-1999.php10:08
rpierce99that means nothing Klej10:08
rpierce99there are 2 identical phones called the touch10:08
helicopter88and ELF10:08
rpierce99one is gsm, one is cdma10:08
rpierce99in windows mobile can you connect to your gsm?10:09
Klejelf010010:09
helicopter88rpierce99: HTC Elf platform10:09
Klejyeah10:09

rpierce99yeah, the only reason the vogue got anywhere was because of dzo10:11
Klejcan you give me a link to download10:11
arrrghhhpretty much.10:11
Klejto test it10:11
rpierce99you can hang out in the vogue section all you want, but they will never have working gsm radios10:11

helicopter88lol10:12
Klejwhat to do now ?10:12
arrrghhhKlej, buy a new phone?10:12
Klejno.10:12
rpierce99develop android for your phone, live with winmo, live with linux with no wifi/gsm,10:12
arrrghhhlol10:12
arrrghhhthose are pretty much your choices.10:13
Klejbut tell me10:13
helicopter88or buy a new phone10:13
Klejhow was i am using android on my phone using wing linux10:13
arrrghhhhelicopter88, i said that :P10:13
arrrghhhKlej, it's similar hardware, but the radios are different.10:13
Klejlook at this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1CdZnclLi2A10:14
rpierce99getting android to run isn't going to be a big deal, i'm sure the vogue roms will work for you just fine, but you have a different radio, so no wireless will ever work10:14
Klejits working10:14
helicopter88arrrghhh: missed that10:14
arrrghhhso it works, but RIL related things don't work.10:14
Klejbut this wing linux does not support for wifi and gsm10:14

Tandyman100You can get unlimited everything on T-Mobile for $45/mo with no contract if you don't mind the lack of 4g after 3gb...12:03
arrrghhhi like saving money too12:03
Tandyman100Well, yeah, I guess if you have a family plan or something it would be cheaper.12:03
arrrghhhyea12:03
Tandyman100Or if you bought contracts.12:03

arrrghhhTandyman100, didn't have a choice really12:16
Tandyman100iPhone>Blackberry>WebOS>WP7=ICS12:16
arrrghhhdetule, the OS is maddening.12:16

arrrghhhyou're an idiot.12:16
Tandyman100inb4shitstorm12:16
arrrghhhnope12:17
arrrghhhdidn't make it12:17
Tandyman100I used WP7 for the past two months12:17
arrrghhhi've used wp7, that OS is retarded12:17
arrrghhhthey forgot SO much shit.12:17
arrrghhhi don't care how fast it is12:17
Tandyman100Which version?12:17
arrrghhhif it doesn't work, who cares?12:17
Tandyman100Mango or 7.1?12:17
arrrghhhdunno12:17
arrrghhhdon't really care12:17
Tandyman100because 7.1 was retarded as hell12:17
arrrghhhwas some official WP7 device12:17
Tandyman100Mango made it 100000x better12:17
arrrghhhsamsung focus?12:17
arrrghhhi dunno12:17
arrrghhht'was shite12:17
arrrghhher12:17
arrrghhhhtc surround12:17
Tandyman100oh12:17
Tandyman100yeah12:17
Tandyman100that's a 1st-gen device12:17
Tandyman100those sucked ass.12:18
detuleisn't mango completely locked down12:18
detulehow can it be any good?12:18
Tandyman100I like Android and WP7 equally. They both have their faults and strengths.12:18
Tandyman100detule: that's what I like about it. It's impossible for the retards in my family to fuck it up through sheer stupidity like they managed to do with Android. As far as "It just works" WP7 is the best OS in the market.12:19
Tandyman100It's also the only OS I've used where I didn't feel like I wanted to customize it any.12:19
Tandyman100However12:19
detulei think you'll discover people around here value the ability to truly own their phones12:19
arrrghhhi don't like 'it just works'12:19
Tandyman100if you *do* want to customize, or sideload apps (though quite a few wp7 phones can), or pirate apps, or use removable media, android is superior.12:19
arrrghhhbecause 'it just works... for this one guy who thought it should work like that'12:19
arrrghhhor use removable media12:20
arrrghhhLOl12:20
arrrghhhLOL12:20
arrrghhhyea.12:20
Tandyman100WP7 phones can't mount as a flash drive, nor do they support removable SD cards (though the next version of Windows Phone will solve both these problems, as well as add support for lower-spec devices)12:20
arrrghhhi don't like that way of thinking.  that someone else knows better.12:20
arrrghhhfuck that.12:20
Tandyman100Again12:20
arrrghhhTandyman100, quit selling microshit.12:20
detuleit's a flawed business model12:20
arrrghhhwe don't care.12:20
Tandyman100the next generation of windows phones (windows 8) will have that.12:20
arrrghhhthat's nice12:20
arrrghhhdon't care.12:20
detulethere is no way ms can come up with a superior product behind closed doors.....hell that's why they are still stuck with single core devices12:21
Tandyman100They use single core devices because the OS is slimmer and more regulated...12:21
Tandyman100they don't *need* a fucking 1.4ghz dual-core phone do run.12:21
detuleyou sound like an apple spokesperson12:21
Tandyman100lawl12:21
Tandyman100or a microsoft one12:21
Tandyman100I am a bit of a fanboy12:21
Tandyman100but as I said12:21
Tandyman100I like them both equally, personally12:22
detuleit's because they don't have the manpower to develop an smp kernel12:22
Tandyman100WP7 is better for people who would otherwise buy an iPhone.12:22
Tandyman100Android is better for people who want more control over their device.12:22
detuletrust me if they could support dual core devices they would12:22
Tandyman100End of discussion.12:22
Tandyman100(dual-core support comes with Windows Phone 8 as well, btw)12:22
Tandyman100which I think is just going to cause fragmentation.12:22
Tandyman100if they do add it.12:22
Tandyman100Because then software made to support the more powerful cores won't run very well on single-core devices12:23
Tandyman100The upside to WP7 is that all of the apps will work on all of the phones because of the way MS controls the hardware12:23
detulei think you are peddling wares in the wrong room, this whole project was designed around reverse engineering a closed source product....nobody here will find an upside to wp7 or 8 or whatever they are up to now12:23
Tandyman100thus, less stupid people complaining some game doesn't work on their phone when it works on their friends.12:23
Tandyman100yeah12:23
Tandyman100I dunno12:23
Tandyman100I just felt like rambling12:23

Tandyman100And my sister's MyTouch 3G12:29
helicopter88I can't say it's true12:29
helicopter88for some obvious reasons12:29
Tandyman100I CM7'd her hero, and she keeps saying it's improved the camera some how.12:29
arrrghhhi wouldn't12:29
arrrghhhjust creates a support nightmare usually12:29
arrrghhhi just act dumb, works best12:29
Tandyman100The Hero and MyTouch3g are the same phone, correct?12:29

Tandyman100hi13:06
detulehyc, no idea where jonpry got the sources from, i once tried to match that version number on the internet couldn't find it _anywhere_13:12
detulei am generally for the idea of syncing the bcm4329 tree with google...one thing to note is that our source seems to be newer at least judging by revision numbers13:19
arrrghhhhrm13:28
arrrghhhmexican food sounds good.  why do i have to be so poor.13:28
arrrghhhTandyman100, quick, buy me lunch.13:28
detulethough certainly lapses such as the one you caught in dhd_linux seem to indicate otherwise13:28
arrrghhhdetule, am i just a rube or would you guys like me to bake a new rootfs with that update?13:29
* Tandyman100 poops in a bowl13:29
Tandyman100here, arrrghhh13:29
Tandyman100mexican food.13:29
detuleit can wait til future release, plus that firmware needs to be tested on .35 don't think emwe uses bcm432913:29
arrrghhhdetule, ah13:31
arrrghhhgood point13:31
arrrghhhshould put that firmware thru the ringer.13:31

hyci suppose that also answers the question of why we don't use even newer firmwares...13:56
detulewe don't use the same driver13:58
detulei suggested to folks on xda to update to the firmware you found...seems like a good idea to run with the latest14:01

hycdetule: our source seems newer than the gingerbread source? or the latest android tree?14:51
hyclatest android tree has a completely new driver, bcmdhd14:51
hyc(well, I don't know how completely new it is, but ...)14:52
detulei was looking and android-3.015:11
hycthe dhd_linux.c version stamp is way out15:14
hycthe wl_iw.c version stamps look quite close15:14
detulebcmdhd looks like something google is priming for ics15:17
detulehm dhd_linux in the android-3.0 tree is 2011/02/03; ours is 2011-02-0915:19
detulesuspicious ver numbers 1.65 vs 1.13115:19
hycright, that's what I was getting at.15:20
hycevery repo / branch I found in those git repos was 1.65.something15:21
hycmebbe ours came from a private broadcom repo15:21
detuleyeah i was unable to ever match where these drivers came from probably from some dump15:22
detulemy guess is perhaps samsung releasing source or something15:22
hycpossibly15:22
hycthe spica repo that I grabbed the 4.217.95 firmware from just switched from bcm4329 to bcmdhd15:22
detulethey use gingerbread with that?15:23
hycseems like it15:23
detulei am slightly worried they expose different functionality to userland15:23
hycyeah, dunno what they've changed15:23
hycsome of the later firmwares sound good tho15:24
hycat some point it says "deleted debug console to make more memory available" or somesuch15:24
hycwhich can't be a bad thing ;)15:24
detulewish i knew what wext vs cfg80211 is15:26
hychmmm. I think it's just newer drivers that leave more of the boilerplate stuff to generic code15:28
hycpretty sure the userland API has to remain the same15:28
detuleprobably right, i am just slightly cautious because i know when i looked at syncing the gadget trees, it wasn't possible because of mismatching sysfs entries15:30
detuleoh bcmdhd looks nice15:36
hycwhat in particular have you noticed about it? I haven't looked yet15:44
detuleoh adds a config entry for static buffers, which we were forcing with a compile time flag15:49
detulethought i saw something different in the firmware loading mechanism but it's the same as in 432915:49
detuleand i got it to compile without too much trouble15:50
hyccool15:51
*** Klej has quit IRC15:56
detuleany easy way i can tell android to use bcmdhd rather than bcm432916:02
hychm, maybe not without recompiling some loaders. don't recall.16:05
hycI would just insmod manually to test.16:05

hycI think it's quite cool that we have native tethering; why do devs on other phones keep screwing with 3rd party tether app?16:16
mgross029I agree...  I was pretty bummed about that on CM and other Native Device Mods.  XDAndroid definitely has some nice features built in.16:19
hycAFAIK that's just AOSP. They'd be going out of their way to disable the feature... ? oh well16:21

arrrghhhi know carrier ROM's don't include it, or if they do they have it hooked to a payment thingy16:29

arrrghhhany of 'em AOSP?16:33
arrrghhhmost aren't unfortunately.16:33
mgross029CM is based off of AOSP. Right?16:33
arrrghhherm... i guess16:33
arrrghhhi don't see what else it would be based off of lol16:34

*** rpierce99 has joined #xdandroid16:35
mgross029Nope...  I was pretty shocked...  Getting ready to try a ICS build on the other Droid I have once I replace the broken digitizer.  It is based on AOSP as well and they are getting pretty close to a fully functional build16:36
mgross029Going back to XDA soon too...16:37

hychm, don't even remember if my G1 had it.16:40

arrrghhhwtf16:41
hycbut none of the early roms did, that's why i had to hack adb to do usb tether16:41
arrrghhhmy gf's optimus s on cm7 has it16:41
detulethere's some missing dependencies in this bcmdhd kconfig16:42

arrrghhhlol16:43

arrrghhhmy native Android device experience is very limited.16:43
detulehopefully not, i was hoping i wouldn't have to get in here hacking away, but i may have to16:43
arrrghhhit consists of randomly having to fix my gf's optimus16:43
mgross029arrrghhh: It could be.  I've even seen problems with APN and MMS on this thing.  I've had to find work arounds to get things working.  Oh well it was free, so I shouldn't complain too much.16:45
