[Q] JB Fixing Errors - Android

Hello,
I have a question concerning the ports of Jellybean to smarthphones. A lot of times it will come with, what i think, are standard errors. wifi aint working, camera aint working etc. I would like to learn how to help with fixing those errors. The answers i found and got where tips on using adb Logcat and looking where it went wrong. But what should you do after that, i mean i see a bunch of lines and i see it cant load something. Where should i look to fix the problem there, how should you fix the problem then etc. Are there some general guidelines that are easy2learn which you can help fix roms with?
To give some specific information.
I have a HTC Sensation running Bruce2728's CM10 beta build
Thanks in advance,
Marlo

[Q] Problems installing new android framework on KingComp Joypad71

I don't think this is the right subforum post this thread but I cannot find a better one, nor a similar thread, so here I go.
So I got this Kingcom Joypad 71 yesterday. As I am new to this forum it doesn't give me permission to post links so: e-kingcom.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=1&category_id=1&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=54&lang=en
It's a bit slow and purposeful if you know what I mean. So, the noob that I am I decided to upgrade it. Found instructions to install honeycomb and got to it.
Moments later the only thing that happened after the initial dancing andorid was a blinking "UBEROID" sign.
I was unable to find any thing other that would work. I cannot find the framework from the producer.
Can anyone help me? I would very much appreciate if someone has the same product to give me the framework restarter that's on it.

[Q] ICS Passion ROM - Gtalk and skype issues

Hi, All,
Please help me!! Not sure if this is already discussed. I have searched the forums and found a couple of threads but there was no resolution. So, I am sorry if it is already answered.
My problem is that the gtalk and skype video calls are not working. The apps crashes all the times whenever I try to make video chats. I am running the ICS Passion ROM v13 RC1 and I have been having this issue with previous passion ROMs as well. I have had couple of suggestions that this might be due to the bootloaders and to flash to Gingerbread's one. Since flashing bootloaders are a bit risky I need to be sure if it would fix the issue before doing this. So please help me out
Thanks in advance

Honestly, IMO, changing to GB bootloaders won't help your situation. But that's just my opinion.
I don't know what you have tried, so I'm just going to throw out things I would do. Uninstall/reinstall the app. Fix permissions in Rom Manager and Repair Permissions in CWM.

[Q] jailing my android device to only one app

Hi folks,
first of all I want to say that this is the very best forum for Android I have ever seen. I've got so much usefull things here! Thank you for this great help.
But now I have a project to solve, where I have to modify an Android device, so that the "Standard"-User has only 1 App to start.
Every other things like settings and so on have to be password protected.
I do not even find a hint where to start investigating for a solution.
How could this be done? Do I have to :
- write a new Launcher?
- write or compile a new kernel?
I do not want you to give me a ready app or kernel or whatever I need.
I would be glad to get a hint where to look or how to start.
I have tried to find a similar thread or topic but I have not found anything.
I tried jailing and similar word in the search without a proper result.
thanks, for reading this
regards

[help]

I hope I'm not posting this in the wrong forum, but i'm posting here because i think i am in the right place.. If not mods please move this to appropriate forum..
So I'm on the nexus s 4g and i'm feeling like i'm ready to get into porting and then development.. I really just need help understanding eclipse and how to port in general.. I know eclipse is great for developement and I just installed the adt and the sdks through eclipse and I need to know how to set this up so I can run a logcat through adb so I can see why my port isn't fully booting.. I'm stuck at the boot animation.. I've tried reading some guides but because i'm still a noob i feel like there's always something i'm missing.. I was hoping someone here would be so kind as to help run me through on getting this set up and helping me understand the fundementals..
there are many that know more than me, but i can try to help a little bit...
first off, im going to assume you are porting roms, not apps, because of how you have things worded i was a bit confused at first.
now, eclipse is an amazing IDE, but when it comes to porting android roms from device to device its not going to be much (if any at all) help to you. eclipse is great for application development, and building a full, ready to install android package (apk) for pushing to the market or side-loaded. (installed on data partition)
there dont tend to be many guides or strait line ways do do things. it all comes out of experience and good problem solving skills. learn to read your logcats, understand what they are saying. you will get it!
im more of a source built kind-of-guy, and never did any porting of pre-compiled roms. but i know http://freeyourandroid.com/ is a great resource for getting started with just that.
please also think about looking into the android build system, its complicated, but you will get it eventually, and it will teach you how a rom really works, and is really built, and it gives you complete control to do anything you want.
hope this was a little help.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
the only reason i was setting up eclipse for this was because it was to my understanding it had the tools needed to get adb to produce a logcat, i've delt with apps before.. I made myself a lil launcher for miui and a couple others, but i just have no idea on how to do anything with adb and gettings log cats.. I do appreciate your response and i will take a look at that website.

[Q] Need Help Porting Rom!!!

Hello, I have ported android 4.4.4 to the galaxy player 4.2 via the Android Kitchen and i need help fixing some problems. Right now the main issue is that after flashing the ROM the device wont boot..... I know its a big problem but it'd be cool to get this thing working so i figured i should ask. I've been searching Google for the last 2 hours but I've came up short. If you help me then I'll be more than glad to give u props in the development thread for this project once its finished.
Ok well i decided not to use the kitchen to port kitkat because it isnt a great idea so i have decided to port it the way dragonizer told me too(link to guide below). But the thing is is theat i need help getting the files i need. I have been constantly been searching for files for 2 days so far and have barely made a dent. I have the repositories i need but the rest of the files i am asking for help to find. Now i wil post the file names of the ones i find when i find them. Thanks for the help and if you have any questions for me on the project or will like to become a contributor to the project then pm me and we can get this thing made.

dude if you need a tester or anything i would be glad to help i have also tried to port cm 11 kitkat to my device with no success but i would like to help get it made
