[DEV][18/07]Flyer kernel source from HTC - HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G

Hi,
HTC publish the kernel source on their developer side. Here you can get it.
So, now we stil wait for the Sense SDK (beside honeycomb update, unlock bootloader, ... )

I can't do anything with kernel source but wanted to say thanks elim for what your doing for this device

a) I haven't done so much until now but thank you.
b) There is a 'Thanks' button under every post

I'm still waiting for the sources for the view and the evo gingerbread kernel. I miss overclocking, undervolting and interactive governor Hopefully the flyer owners can whip up some kernels for you.

How to turn off s-off

I had used htcdev to unlock. I have 2.3.4 and want to over clock my EVO3d. Can someone help? I will donate to the person who can give me instructions on how to overclock. I have.rooted and have superuser.

In order to overclock you need a kernel which supports overlocking, usually by allowing cpufreq values to be modified in the userspace (/sysfs)
A great app, which is given out free to XDA members is SetCPU. Load up this app and see if it works for you.
If it doesn't hopefully it will give a detailed error message instructing the next step. Otherwise, my first guess would be needing a custom kernel, which I don't think any custom kernels have been released for 2.3.4 since HTC hasn't released the source code yet.
Hopefully that helps!

lol you're a very gracious person. regardless, it also depends if you have the GSM or CDMA version of the 3vo. as of right now you cannot overclock the GSM one.
There are no overclock kernels for 2.3.4 on CDMA or GSM Evo 3D yet. There probably won't be until HTC releases the source for it.
send a PM to the creator of setCPU, he made overclock possible when we had temproot. Or wait for kernel source. Good luck.
On the htcdev site the evo 3d kernel source they have listed is:
HTC EVO 3D-CRC-2.6.35
not sure what the "crc" stands for but my Rogers gsm evo 3d is kernel 2.6.35.13
does that mean it is the right one or am I too hopefull?

HTC Releases Kernel Source For A Slew Of Devices

http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/1...sation-jetstream-and-a-slew-of-other-devices/
What impact will this have on the EVO 3D development community? Does this have anything to do with drivers for the WiMax and 3D systems? (I have limited knowledge of how Android is structured, so I have no clue.)
Wow they released the rezound code already! Phone not even out for a week and they have kernel source. HTC must be learning. Too bad that phone ships locked up tight and even if unlocked it'll likely still be s-on and done via HTC method.
I just hope HTC makes a fully unlock in future and not this flash kernels via fastboot crap they have now.
Sorry to derail ur thread but Ima say they won't help too much. Diff phones have diff drivers completely because hardware is diff.

Isn't not having the kernel the excuse we've been getting as far as not having a true AOSP rom?

That's the old kernel source for Gingerbread. Maybe I am wrong but that was already released some month ago?!
Edit: Okay, I am not to old, see here (18 July!) or here (november)
2. Edit (see also below): Okay, the HC source code is now again available.
There is also one for HC (or was yesterday).

[DEV] Developer-related discussion for EVO View 4G

Thought we'd have a thread here for mainly Dev's so we can communicate in one section with the already isolated sections.
Well, I'll start off first:
Does anyone have luck on the following?
- Creating AOSP kernel (GB base)
^ 2.6.35 source is out on htcdev, but kernels are not my expertise. I contacted cayniarb to see if he'd be willing to make one for us.
- Building any AOSP roms? GB/ICS hacks
^ Been trying CyanogenMod 7 unsuccessfully for a few days.
I don't think it's impossible, however given several tries at compiling. Resulting zips just don't boot, probably bootimage/kernel related... Think I have got all the proprietaries pulled and needed files set up by mostly mimicking other MSM8655 builds.
- Direct porting flyer roms to express
^ Something I may try soon if I can't get any progress done on my end. This is probably not very hard, but looking at the Flyer choices there doesn't seem to be a whole lot we are missing out completely on.

I can vouch for this; using any Flyer ROM with the View kernel that matches the version of Android (i.e. GB or HC) WILL work on the View. Namely, LeeDroid's GB ROM with the OC View GB kernel. Although, using the Flyer kernel will cause a bootloop :\
The only thing we are missing out on is an optimized kernel. We wouldn't even need Flyer ports with a "proper" View kernel
I am more interested in getting ICS working right now. I'm working on the final build of CypherROM and from there working on themes and a kernel. My team has been trying to build a kernel based off of leedroid's work for some time, but haven't had any luck.
It looks like a dev just made an alpha AOSP kernel for the flyer, which we can't use of course (for the newbs reading):

The biggest problem is the WiMAX. Doing some research it looks as though we might be able to use HTC "speedy" aosp kernel source. Same processors and gpu. Just need to get a hold of kernel source and comparing def_configs. I have done nothing but kinda look into it. I have built the device folders too. But I knew the kernel was the issue so I wasn't going to compile. And once we get an aosp kernel we can also get a decently functional touch recovery.

Why don't you just port it for us?
If I only had more time I could actually get more done with my rom and try to build AOSP. Getting promoted has just taken away all my time.

In my opinion beats makes music sound like crap when ported. And I have had it on multiple devices.
My aosp kernel testing is not going very well. I really need to read up on board files in the kernel to remove the sense stuff from them

@jmztaylor As for the kernel, would you be interested in working with my team to get the stock one working on cypherROM? Daniels7 (leedroid tweaks) gave me permission to port his tweaks over to my rom, but I need a kernel port of the leedroid kernel or something to that effect (I'd like to build our own). I don't know enough about kernels to do it myself and unixdood hasn't had any luck building one. Everytime I try to cook it in, or even make it flashable it causes bootloop. PM me if you do or if you'd like to work on anything else (including teaching me lol). Thanks!
Hmmm maybe I will just go ahead and do that but idk....getting kicked out and my ROMs shut down was not very nice....just maybe though!

No it won't. Kernel won't boot for one. I don't think I have tried putting EVO view kernel on it. But I still highly doubt it would boot.

I have tried taking flyer kernel and porting it to the view but I can't get it to finish compiling. Even after fixing the missing stuff I still was getting a lot of errors. So I put it on the back burner. I got too many projects going on. HTC policy officially is 90-120 days to release kernel source. So we are almost there. LOL

Got some good news from tiamat
Sent tiamat a message, got a reply back. There is hope for us, but we need people to jumpstart and kick development back into the Evo View. So, testers needed on irc...
Hey there, your kernels have been a hit with the vivo on the latest ICS rom we have, we built over the IceColdSandwich LorD ClockaN has been working on for the ace.
I was wondering, if you would ever take the time to look into making a few extra kernels for a few spots where development is really sore.
It's with the HTC Flyer / EVO View 4G tablets, as since we don't have any AOSP kernels, no unofficial CyanogenMod with us too.
The chipsets of those tablets uses the same one as other devices.. I don't think the Flyer has a popular chipset (MSM8255T) but the View uses the mecha's MSM8655 only to be clocked at 1.5Ghz instead of 1.0.
If it's not too much to ask, we could really use your help.

The only thing that has been holding me back from working on kernels for the Evo View 4G / Flyer is a lack of testers. the difference in the two processor numbers is not actually related to the processor. The 2 indicates GSM basebands whereas the 6 indicates CDMA bands. I imagine the WiFi-only Flyer is numbered 8055. In any case, to further confuse the numbering/naming scheme here, this chipset is usually referred to as the 7x30 platform. The Thunderbolt, Desire HD, Desire Z, Desire S, Incredible 2, Inredible S, Evo Shift, MyTouch 4G, View/Flyer, Bliss, Merge, Sensation XL, Rhyme, the upcoming One V, and some more I'm missing all use the same platform and should theoretically be easy to merge into my existing code. I only support the first 8, but if I had testers on any of the others, I'd be happy to add them in. The catch there is that I can't make the ROMs for it.
Send me an email or find me on IRC and we can talk more about it.

His handle is cayniarb, but probably isn't hard to find and people in the room will help out.

Forgive my ignorance, but does this increase the chance of devs identifying a 1.15 Hboot vulnerability, or is Hboot not relevant to this source code?

I'm no expert, but am fairly certain the hboot is proprietary and will never be shared.
Hope they fix the LTE connection issues in this update. Comparing it to the S3 side by side the EVO is a joke for LTE usage.

If its proprietary stuff by Qualcomm then HTC can't release it... Just bc its in the kernel doesn't mean it has to have full source to that exact part... There are ways to still secure proprietary things and include them in kernel for open source items... It'd be interested to see if this is the case..
I would think by now someone over on CAF woulda figured this out for sure by now though...
Anyway hopefully Jeff can get something for ya that will help or least give an answer on the reasoning why...
