[project]Port android to meizu M8

r3wDy you are right, we could do an overkill with os´es on M8,
but the chinese djyos isn´t interesting for me since it is hard to get information about it, however Mer that´s a nice project on his own with lots of possibilities

btw thanks for getting the wiki back to status "up"
anynews on the wifi yet?

non of the driver is working

EDIT: i got it to work ....*ugly*

EDIT2: What will cmd show if the ".apk" file is installed correctly?

EDIT3: I figuered out how to move the ".apk" files to the sdcard...but when do i see the icon? Do i need to install the apps in the phone?

I have the same issue, please continue in this thread(as we want this thread to be clean, "developers only":
http://www.meizume.com/modding-devel...questions.html
We have talked about these issues before in this thread.
I can connect, but when i want to install some apk file, there is no icon on my Android desktop/Menu.

Last days i focused more on the baseband than on the wlan. This was because what would be a phon which cants be used as phone...

But it still seems that the baseband is disabled and needs to be activated in someway to act as a modem...
I think this is done through one of the gpio lines but we
1) cant just bruteforce then to find the right one
2) dont have any documentation about this....

I think i will look at the adresses from the gpio registers and will have a look if i can find asm command in the files which seems to be gpio commands.
maybe i can find the activiate signal

r3wDy,
nobody can blame you on that ;-)

Did you by any chance tried usbnet yet?

btw maybe this could provide any hints on wlan/baseband activation?
ive tried to download the package myself but it seems a low speed download connection so i cancelled it after a few hours

to all,
you might noticed (or not) that i added WinCe 0.9.3.90 dual boot package to page 1 Not tested it cause i cant for now but i am sure it will run out of the box.

ps, i noticed a typo in the dualboot howto document, i added in the text "Zimage" twice instead of "once Zimage and once xip.bin", however the pictures show the right stuff so it is not a big deal that you wouldn´t know yourself.
i will updated it asap when i have some time :-)

Does anyone recognized that Audio work for ~50% ? I can hear for example a song and it's sounds strange.

@r3wDy:

I pushed three repository in midnight. (I have 50k full upload speed in am 4:00)

http://gitorious.org/mdroid

I can't type linux-2.6.32-m8 in repository name because gitorious won't let me type dot in repository name.

linux-2.6.32 need more fix to get work.

can you replace dot by underscone? (. by _ ?)

iw ill get the sources an see my self. thankyou

Which one to use best? 32 and patch samsung stuff innit
or
29 and patch just the things we need (eg spi support) int)+

PS
i once dled the samsung handy stuff... these are kernel sources / source from apps an patches. (the fact that they are plit in stock kernel sources and patches to get them to samsung work can be very good for us @ banxian so we can see als the changes)

But we need to know which mobile form them is most m8 like, special to the wlan and the baseband chip.
unfortunately its hard to find hardware infos of them

Damn great work anyone!
We're also working on porting Android, but to the LG Arena as you can see here and here.
I'm also trying to get a Meizu M8 on eBay, it's at 20€ now and 3 days left..
Good luck with fixing the Wifi, Bluetooth and other bugs!!

Hum i know i cant decide what to do but....
the 5700 has an 27 kernel an in this kernel there is a 6400 spi driver which seems to meet the kernel structure of our running kernel....
i will try to compile this kernel in our "old" envirioment and see

But unfortunately there are no interesting spi device in the 5700 but i will have a search after the baseband

5700s spi driver works to compile but is a gpio/bitbang driver....
i will try it but i dont see a sense in connecting a wlan card to a slow gpio/spi when two highspeed spi ports are avaliable...
but i will give it a shot

guys, i added the git to page 1.

r3wdy you mean the 5700 as in the samsung spicia-something?
Cause there are still some similar devices we can have a look onto ?

Btw i noticed in a log that the 27 kernel should contain support for audio /wlan by default for m8se not sure though..

**still can´t do much cause my replacement is still on his way :@**

i ment 7500 galaxy as this is a android phone with the same cpu.
Im still searching, there is no fast progress right now. The problem is a) the spi does not work and b) the baseband does not work :/
This really sucks because all we can do is investigating every single smasung phone source and see if we can find any usable stuff innit...

that will take lots of time

btw i found those so called android 2.0 pictures, but it is claimed to be fake in an other topic on bbs... so not sure what to think.

Does it always show the same time? 15:14 or 16? not like 13 :\
And always the same Battery capacity but the power cable is plugged in?

i have this gut feeling that tells me these pictures are legit :S

I works hard on a database tools for our game planner this week.
They reported lots of bugs and new feature request.
When I return to this thread I found it's weekend now.

I've lost interest of mmc hand debugging now.

I'll try to add uart debug support in ce6 bsp to check how my custom build ce6 failed to start.
