Hello all
I have spent much time recently attempting to modify the zImage included with the Fascinate to include a working recovery image for us to use. However without source code this an extremely difficult (if not possible) goal to achieve.
I am requesting that anyone who owns this device please request the kernel source code from Samsung, so that we may be able to fully utilize our devices. Even if you do not know anything about coding or have any personal use for this source code, it is your right to request it as an owner of the device, and this code will help us all immensely once it is in the right hands.
Requests for source code can be filed on Samsung's website at : opensource . samsung.com/ (remove the extra spaces, apparently I can't post links yet)
Click on the mail icon at the top to submit your request.
Thank you for your assistance.
Requesting right now. Thanks for what your doing! Any updates since last night?
i just finished sending one in

You just want everything handed to you, don't you? Quit being so lazy and do some actual work.
But seriously everyone, please take the time to fill out the request. The sooner we get the source, the quicker we'll see some ROMs.

Seriously, thank you to anyone who fills out the request. Remember, as an owner of the device it is your right to have access to the kernel source code, and it takes less than 2 minutes to fill out the request form. Tell your friends!

There's the direct url for the lazy.
Thanks for direct link. Filled one out through my phone. Made it sound pretty formal lol. Let's hope we get the ball rolling soon, starting to miss all the active development on the older phones.
Submitted a request.

Once we get source we will be able to get a working recovery, then the floodgates will be open. My personal mission is to get AOSP/CM on the phone immediately after that happens, can't stand the TouchWiz and I intend to destroy it!!
Submitted a request. Only way I'll be buying this phone is if I can eliminate all Verizon/Samsung UI/apps. Even a vanilla ROM will do over the TouchWiz crap.
I am a little confused. What source code are you requesting?
If you go to h**p://opensource.samsung.com/, click on 'Mobile' at the top, then Ctrl-F for "i9000", you can find (what looks like) a zip containing both the kernel image and files you can plop in an aosp tree in order to build roms for the Galaxy S.
Maybe you guys are talking about source specifically for Fascinate?

Well i am sure they will release the source, its just taking them longer than i would like. They released the source for the Epic about 3 days after the hardware was released, and we are at about a week now.
Yeah, they'll post the code soon, they're just taking their sweet time about it.
Source code released! Thanks guys!

Does the device have a device git yet?
If not, I am very interested in what others will answer
If it does, then just clone that git into [SOURCE DIR]/device/[YOUR BRAND]

I'm pretty much in the same shoes as you OP, except with the LG Optimus Elite.
If you are like me and this is your very first time developing i would think you'd need to look here http://htcdev.com/devcenter/downloads and study the source code.
As for other details, just as lost as you not to mention each phone is a different beast making it harder for devs to give us a one size fits all answer.

tried that way, but it just went to htc.com/uk for some reason :/
Where can we get the other proprietary binaries besides those Nexus S and Galaxy Nexus?
Ok here is what I would.
1. Get a VERY detailed breakdown of your phone's specs. I.E. processors, GPU, etc, etc.
2. Find as many phones as you can that are as similar to your phone as possible.
3. Find out which one of those phones are supported by CM9, AOKP, etc.
4. Pull down their device folders and start your modifications off from that.
You are going to need someone to do the kernel however and I have no idea where to even start with that. That's still on my "to learn" list!
It takes a LONG time and a lot of scary moments with your phone, but I'm pretty close to getting my first "alpha" build here of CM9 myself!! And gosh is it a awesome feeling!

It appears to be legit and yes, I am surprised to be honest, especially for those small changes.
But I won't complain about still getting their attention for our device.
Seems like quite a timely coincidence. I feel as though we're being mocked.
The update is 19.3MB in size.
Does this mean they have another 90 days to release the source code? If not shouldn't the source code be released this month?

Judging by the size of the update and items listed, I am guessing it will not contain a new kernel.
Which theoretically means that their timeline should not be extended, but they seem to do what they want.
Santod,
Do you think they will definitely release it this month or not even lol?

I have my doubts honestly. But who knows.
I didn't think we would see another OTA and here we are, so you never know.
But based on my back n forth conversations with them, they do not seem to be in any hurry to put it out.
They keep claiming that they need it to be proven stable by both the Carrier and the Developer.
With this new update, I could see them saying that they will need longer now to verify that stability.
I really don't know though, only they do and they aren't sharing much info about it with the general public it seems.
But by law the source does indeed need to be released eventually right?

I think getting updates out faster and releasing kernel source faster should be 2 Goals Google should push for the manufacturer this year.
Technically, there is no time limit, and if you read the GPL strictly.... all releases have to have the source code released with it (at the same time).
It does not matter though. The only people who can complain or sue, are people who legitimately own copyright of a part of the kernel or work it is derived from.
Santod, are you going to pack up this small update as a flashable for people running your stock roms?

My post from the OTA thread:
I intend to do something with it for the stock roms.
I will know better once I have the files in hand if I will rebuild and upload all 4 roms, or if I will just put up a deodexed and an odexed flashable zip.
Like I say, I will know better once I have the new files. But I do intend to do something with them for everyone.

That is correct. Not sure why people *continue* to throw this 90 day time frame around.
Is the part about only people whose work is in the kernel correct? I do understand that they only have to release the bits that they've changed, not the entire tree. Of course, that would only slow a kernel dev down while he/she patches a clean source tree with HTC's changes...
Finally, to the previous post, there is no "law", at least in the criminal sense, that HTC may or may not be breaking.

As noted above, as far as the GPL is concerned, "stability" doesn't factor in. The ROM could be total crap or non-booting - they doesn't change compliance. The day VZW and HTC pushed the last OTA update, their source (changes) should have been available as well.

As far as what HTC states they are delaying it for, it DOES factor in.
I never said it was correct to do, accurate, fair, or compliant, just stating what they have stated to me regarding it.

They are indeed breaking a law, it is for Breach of contract. That is what people who sue over GPL violations go to court with.
My point was, people will have to have enough interest in the issue to file a court case against HTC. No prosecutor is going to initiate a case, for instance. And if no one does anything, HTC gets off free and clear. Ultimately, it's always the FSF that files (isn't it ?) and they do it on principle, NOT because users want it.
As for only having to publish what they changed vs the entire thing, did that change ? I'm not doubting you, but I'm positive that at one point, only what was changed had to be provided. For example, Dish Network uses Linux for their DVRs and provides source code, but they always had a disclaimer warning people that what they're providing is, by itself, pretty useless for "building" anything. That could have involved proprietary libraries or drivers that hook into the Linux kernel that they do not have to provide code for.

Praise this man.
He did it!
OT:
Even though it is very inconvenient for me that wifi is not working, I will definitely test this rom.
Keep up the good work man!
EDIT:
I just tested it and man it is fast and smooth. Big improvement over stock! Because of the fact that wifi doesnt work atm I could not try everything but everything worked except Apollo( the cm music app) didnt want to play my music, maybe thats a problem on my side but idk, and the keyboard was all bugged and laggy. I suggest you to just put in the stock google keyboard inplace for the keyboard app thats now on it. I think most the people would like it more over the keyboard app you put in it.
If you fix the wifi issues I will test again and I will use it as my daily driver.
Good job man!
Pretty awesome!
The rom is running pretty smooth and no lag at all!
Great work man!
I found some bug that you can work on:
-Keyboard completely buggy - I instaled Android AOKP keyborard but the bug persisted. I try to use and I noticed that the keymap is ok, but background is bigger than normal.
-Audio jacker does not redirect the sound correctly, when there is a plug in the jack, it makes the speaker sound lower, but does not redirect the sound to headphone.
-Bluetooth headset connects and works like a charm, but there is no bass sound.
-menu soft key does not work correctly. it does the same as back button.
without wifi working, i couldn't check anything else...
I'd like to thank you again for porting this rom, i've been waiting for it since i bought this p714!
I'll be waiting for any updates, i'll test it as fast as possible and post a feedback for you.
cm10
Omitted the language pack, I hope that the final version to be corrected, all praise for the effort about roma ..
This Rom is only for the dual version or is also available in P710 version? can you help me? I need a Rom from P710 because I do not think will get update. It look great. Follow like this, I will be expecting for the official version :good:
im glad to see this thread,,, but i'm still waiting for the fix. thanks
Why you use Nova Launcher instead the Google one?

You are perfectly legally able to sell something under GPL (yes, for money) given that you provide the source code together with binary release. Same rule applies when you provide binary for free - you have to provide the source code as well.

He finds it very weird that you force people to donate.
The way it usually works is that the developer posts a fully working rom and then people who like it can donate.
People are not going to donate to some guy on the internet who says he will finish something if you donate.
It is like early access. The developer can always just get away with the money and never finish the rom.
TL;DR
You will get donations if you have finished the rom, not before you have finished it.

Yes, you are obliged to give Linux Kernel source for the release you are providing - under GPL. If you fail to do that you are in breach of the license and will face the consequences.
Regarding other android specific stuff - since those are Apache license mostly you don't have to provide sources. Linux kernel is not apache license though.

Per GPLv2 and XDA requirements source code needs to be posted for the kernel. Please do so.
Also per XDA rules donations are ONLY in appreciation for work given. There can be no asking of donations in the promise of future releases.
Moved to Android Development for now. When source is provided it can be moved to OD ONLY until an official CM10 is released then it will be moved to AD again. If this is updated to CM11, there already is an unofficial CM11 in OD so this will be moved to AD in that case too.

You should ban, you are very obnoxious. The Rules of xda says that you MUST put the source code, because Android is OPEN SOURCE, so it's free, anyone can modify it as he wants and here
And then YOU CAN NOT write: Works suspended due to lack of donations, everyone is free.

He should not be, under any circumsrances, banned, he definetly has done something very important and outstanding by creating CM. As soon as he'll provide the sources it all will be fine. Greeding is not nice, but let's keep the topic clean from anything not related to the development, period.
I am surprised that you missed that or maybe I missed it here

Incorrect. People were asking for the Device Tree used to build Mokee, which wasn't and still hasn't been provided. XDA isn't a place for you to download roms, it's a developer community. Pretty sure the device tree would have been converted from one that was available (Probably OP3) and not sharing it is disrespectful to every developer who has worked on it previously.

Who's talking about rules? This is a community and communities have standards. You're free to do whatever you like but expect people to be unhappy if you disrespect the community.

First of all: THANKS for your ROMs. Second: i would really consider publishing the device tree, because there might be a few others who would like to contribute.
Although the Max 2 is a rather "specific" smartphone, which - outside of India and China - nobody really considers buying.

I know is difficult to you to understand this. There must be a reason why you don't want to provide your sources.

ffboy doesn't own anybody anything. He releases his ROM's for free, he doesn't force you to use them. Many rom developers don't release their source code/device trees, one reason is that people could take there hard work getting everything to work and use to build their own ROM's and get donations from them without doing any hard work themselves. Even my grandma can build a ROM when eveyrthing is handed to her. One example is the very resepected developer arter97 who didn't release cyanogenmod device trees for s6 for a while when he was developing for s6. Get off ffboy's case, he is a developer and doesn't deserve this, if there was a downvote in xda I would downvote the haters. You've already been warned by the mods yet you still pour hate on to the dev.
Edit: I agree with ffboy we should continue petitioning LeEco for device trees.
@whymoo
I am not arter97, i don't care what he does and i don't accept donations.
ffboy released his rom under mokee s name who they aclame to be "open source". Also i except to see the whole source and not part of it.
If ffboy doesn't like this he could publice his rom to a hoster like "mega"
ffboy and not me already copied code and signed the same code as his own and don't gave proper credit.
We are a big community and we help each other. We share our knowledge and don't hide it. I and other people don't like to reinvend the wheel again. This is a waste of precius time who lot of us they don't have. Yes! we can contribute, merge bugs and maybe compile other roms and yes, ffboy must accept, that maybe me or others wanna use his device tree or some other code. BUT we don't forget to give credits.
Btw i don't be warned and i don't see a reason why should be.
It's CM or stock based?
ir work?

first i opensourced kernel soucre as GPL requirement,but device tree was not GPL and you do not have the right to force me do things i dont like.
2nd i know i made mistakes on kernel source for commit authorship brcause i am not good at git tools but i have already corrected them.
i dont care you like me and my rom or not
i have released all source of mi max on my github
the only reason i dont release max2 device tree is,
Some people here is just do nothing but PUSHING AND ATTACKING me because they want my device tree to build there roms to gain Respect and donations i think.they are so rude and ridiculous
when i said "No plan to release kernel source RECENTLY" and released a few days later,they don't care and start attacking and pushing
i also dont warned by forum moderatoer by not released device tree
So ban me out of this forum if you can

I don't care if you like ne or not either. I gave you also a like. I don't care either to gain Respect or earn money through donations.
You are the only one here who try to gain respect or donations but your behavior shows me clearly that you are reacting like a little defiant child who felt driven into a corner.
I made a Pointment about you and you have to accept it.

I'd be interested in the device tree so I could play around building with some custom toolchains. All my phones run ROM's I've compiled myself but I've never shared them with anybody here as they aren't my work.

I think you misunderstand. Building ROMs with custom toolchains and then posting them here would be passing off the work of others as my own, which is not on. I'm not making any source code changes.

I understand it's just that everyone should be open with others it would allow us to move forward the rom development for this model that's just my opinion
