As we now the fingerprint in new kernel work but not in ROM because the framework and binarys is incompitable for cyanogenmod ICS. So some months ago I started to port fingerprint in my free time and finaly I stoped to GfxEngine.apk error "Incorectly signed". At this point I undersood that there need to get correct signature or hack this verification down, and yes I made it yesterday(20.08.2013) . So now I had hacked GfxEngine.apk, FingerprintSensor.apk and incomplete framework for ICS from GB. (22.09.2013) We had gained fingerprint support on lockscreen whit some bugs need cleenup and bug reports
All sources and binarys for fp here: https://github.com/firecode95/
To clear all doubt what works for now:
Fingerprint sensor navigation
Fingerprint database managment
Fingerprint lockscreen set up
Fingerprint lockscreen finaly
Known bugs:
after instaling rom first boot makes fc on authentech apk then need to wait ~15 sec and press ok, and if framework is went down need reboot phone
if fp is enabled then after turing on phone need to relock phone with power button to activate fingerprint sensor
fingerprint lock setup setings section gives fc after setup and can't change lock methode anymore
Flashing:
Went from older build, just flash new build on top of it.
Went from other rom? Make full wipe and flash this then.
Fingerprint ROM's are located there, so want to test download latest build and if catch bug report it on this therad whit reproduction steps and logcat. Flash it on clean phone (full wipe).
Want to experiment and maybe make a bugfix for something build it yourself. Initialize android build enviroment(search in net just too many guides already) use official Cyanogenmod ICS source and add the local manifest download there, sync repo and type standart android building comands
Update (22.08.2013)
The finger lock now sets up right just settings apk crashes imediately after setup, and phone goes in soft reboot loop after locking phone because lock screen isn't finished and the new logcat, local_manifest add too + updated github.
Update (22.09.2013)
Today I am proud to say that fingerprint finaly works in cm-9 it's whit some bugs and doesn't show mesages about good or bad swipe in unlock screen but it works, need to swipe finger for 3 - 5 times(if that finger is in database it will work) the source will be available tomorow on my github acount.
Update (4.10.2013)
So I tryed to port it for JB but there is incompitability issues for GfxEngine.apk so need add fix in apk source but there comes dificult part, firs need reverse it to source (.java files) but its quiet difficult, I had decompiled many classes but some classes don't exactly 6 classes in booth apk's (fingerprintsensor.apk and GfxEngine.apk), I will try use different apk's but I think that it will not help and if someone want to help the JB (cm10.1) unfinished source will be available after 1 - 2 days in my github.
In attachment is some pics of what I got
The goal is to make ICS with fingerprint support and leater got port this to JB
And please do not ask or spam whit request when this will be merged in official Olympus kernel ICS rom because this is just a sketch and I am only kernel tester for new kernel. This thread is opened to got solution and every help will be higly evaluated.
Thanks go to @BravoMotorola for providing authentech SDK.
It's a great new! But i have a doubt, why use the frameworks from GB if we have the ones for ICS in AtrICS and works good?

I will give you example. If we took the Settings.apk from AtrICS (leaked rom) the settings apk will crashes in 99,9% because they are system apk and is build with moto stuff not CM and will try to find things that doesn't exist in cm or if exist is diffrent resulting crash and and this is reason why the app hacking was already done.
Wrong Signature problem...
Thx. for your firecode, I know there were sample codes for GB laying on Atrix-Dev-Team, just too lazy to port it to cm-10.1
Anyway, you are saying 'invalid signature', i might help with this
Did you grab all the proprietaries directly from the leaked img??? i.e.
#fingerprint
bin/am2server
etc/am2server.pubkey
lib/libAuthUDMDrv_1750A100.so
lib/libam2app.so
lib/libam2server.so
app/GfxEngine.apk
app/FingerprintSensor.apk
The invalid signature will RING if you have a missigned GfxEngine.apk
E & M have extracted those proprietaries and made them available in Vendor git, BUT there are RESIGNED with testkey.pk8 for new ICS & JB platform
So you have to use the ORIGINAL GfxEngine.apk from the ORIGINAL leaked ICS img signed with Moto key
Hope you can make a JB port as well, Thx. in advance

I already used original moto GfxEngine.apk but it gived same error, the itself worked just whe thye used gfxservice class they crashed, and its no more actual because signature check is reversed now, if wrong signature apk goes right if right signature apk crashes . I think this comes up because in leak rom is apk named MotoSignatureApp.apk
Great work.

I've tested AtrICS with new kernel, Fingerprint Sensor works good.
But I am not going to ask a dumb question like:
"Why don't you try to get it from Leaked Rom." cz ofc you already know it so I assume you cannot do such thing.:laugh:
status?
Firecode, is your github code completed for ics (navigation & fingerperint)? am planning to use in cm-10.1, Thx.

Not jet. The navigation and database administration works but finger lock screen need lot of work the resources and code itself need to be port so they looks and works like pattern lock screen. Gingerbred is quiet different lock functions and the time that need to spent for this is next problem because I am quite busy in these days.

They just included hacked apk's but not android core framework for fingerprint, in my pc is scrach for cm10.1 but there thing go in new level from just dedicated lock screens they are converted to lock widgets and source for it is took from ics so to build cm10.1 from ginger fp code first need to make ics code.
I just posted this to cm10.1's thread, but i think it fits here as well

nice i installed it but my fingerprint sensor refuses to work at times... i seriously dont know why :/ it works well while charging mostly but after i unplug it no response
So the problem with not responding sensor isn't solved by using the ported libs? It was my last hope for a properly working fingerprint sensor

Take into consideration that those are GB libs hacked to work on a OS 3 releases above, like triying to run win 98/me drivers on windows 7

Fingerprint naviguation: OK
Fingerprint lockscreen: needs lot of work because "resources and code need to be ported"
I know it but leaked ics framework isn't working properly, IF the ported libs n framework don't work properly either, that may means the problem is on newer versions of Android and their hardware management

How do you mean not responding fp sensor? The seansor works fully just need lot of work in fp source integration for lock screen. And in leak rom isn't any problems with fp. If you had problems it culd be due hardware, try change fp sensor.
P.S
I think that I litle misunderstood you and this is more for @jcrahul
I realy need development account acces for authentech or documentation with SDK's for fingerprint, it's most important for now, because just trying figure out from code how all works is hard and time compsuming process. So please anyone who has this try to give a helping finger
Hmm, so you say that this not responding issue doesn't affect your device?
In mine this issue really exists and on some others too. It's like you don't even swipe your finger. And it happens as said above, when it shows up the only way to stop it is to plug in the charger, and most of the times after next deepsleep it shows up again.
For example, one day I tried using fp and worked well from the morning till the afternoon (when I got home to charge it). But after removing the charger it showed up.
I think I had go back to GB to test it but I ll do it again.
EDIT: So I went back to GB rom. Unlikely for my ATRIX but likely for the project the issue is still here. So it must be hardware related,I ll sent it for service (its still in warranty )
Update
The ROM manifest and source updated. The testing can start now and if found a bug please repot it

I've been trying to port over ICS from DHD but no success(ROM doesn't boot, stuck at HTC splash screen)
Since I'm a noob to ROM porting any help would be appreciated.
I followed a simple guide which told me to replace certain files in the boot.img and system folder along with a couple of files more.
I used the ICS rom of DHD and MIUI ICS rom for IncS.

a suggestion for you...try the cm7 rom instead of miui ics build.
thanks for your effort. i will also dig about it but after my last exam. i request everyone who could contribute....its for our phone.
keep trying bro.
If it is simple enough I could give it a try, any moderate to advanced programming I wouldnt have a clue
I have been working on this over the last couple of days and so far my port has touchscreen, audio, RIL, wifi, 2D HW acceleration, notification LED and proxy sensor working (pretty much the same as the DHD port I think). Last I tried the microphone wasn't working for calls but it should be fixed in my new build.
I will post it up in the next couple of days once it's ready to be used. I've been busy with other things so haven't had a chance, plus I don't have access to the developer section yet.

good job. if you need any help just let us know. i will try to look into it today night positively.
Anyone got any guides/tutorials kinda stuff for this?
Nopes, no tuts as such... just small guides....
Any links??
Keen to see how much of your port is working so far as well
EDIT: just tried it myself using a guide in other thread. used the DHD beta 3 and vivo latest CM7 nightly and is stuck at htc splashscreen
EDIT2: didnt sign the rom before, lets try that again...
EDIT3: still stuck on splashscreen
I will post my port up later tonight. I had a chance to do a bit of work on it and it's pretty good right now but the market is broken for some reason.
Once I get that working (and hopefully bluetooth as that shouldn't be hard) then I will upload it.

Looks like a nice birthday gift... ;D
Unfortunately I wasn't able to get market working.. but anyway here is the first Alpha.
It is based on a combination of the Desire HD build and using the kernel by TwistedUmbrella. I have a device setup to work with TwistedUmbrella's ICS tree but I don't know if it will 100% build successfully at this stage (takes forever to build on my 5 year old computer..). All credits go to the DHD guys as they have done basically everything, I've just made it work (or at least, most of it) on the vivo.
Working:
- Hardware 2D/3D Hacks
- Touchscreen
- Bluetooth
- Wifi (not tethering)
- RIL
- Data
- Sound
- Sensors
- Rotation
- Status LED
Not Working:
- Hardware video acceleration
- Tethering
- UMS (use adb instead)
- USB tethering
- Camera
- Google account (so Gmail, Market all not working)
The account error seems to be something to do with xt_qtaguid.. here is the log info:
Code:
I/qtaguid ( 3029): Failed write_ctrl(u -1) res=-1 errno=9
I/qtaguid ( 3029): Untagging socket -1 failed errno=-9
I/GLSUser ( 3029): GLS error: NetworkError
Might be a problem with the kernel, but I'm not really sure. Any help would be nice, I've spent about 5 hours on this and gotten nowhere.

Please don't post bugs reports just yet. This is the first alpha, it's not really a daily driver and I know that there are bugs. Post fixes instead.
Sounds awesome Matt! what are you using to break down and build the rom??
Will give it a go in the morning and post any other feedback
Nice work you got slot further than I did! I will see if I can contribute anything to your build once I have it installed.
The Desire S version is pretty good, and the hardware is almost identical to the Inc S, maybe that would make for a better base?

That's probably not a bad idea. I will see if I have time tonight to try and see if I can get market working by using some of the desire s stuff.. or maybe someone else could try as well.
For anyone that gives it a go, just keep in mind that the button backlight levels are in framework-res.apk, and will need to be recompiled from source or decompiled and edited to get the levels right.

Well so I have checked out TwistedUmbrella's ICS tree and 7x30 kernel, and have made a vivo config for both. I've then used the prebuilt DHD ICS rom and taken out the DHD stuff and put in stuff from the vivo Miui.us rom. Then I've just gone through and fixed the boot ramdisk, built the kernel and put it together for the boot image.
In future I will try building from source, but as I said it takes a very long time for me.

This sounds WAY over my head, all I tried was unzipping CM nightly 146 and the DHD build and changing files, rezipping and signing it. No wonder I got stuck at the HTC splashscreen...

Hello:
I am looking to build the official Atrix-dev CM7 weekly/nightly, however, cannot find any instructions/guide to do so. Of course, I could simply pull everything from the Atrix-dev CM7 github and overlay on base CM7 source, but thought I'd ask before I do that.
Why build from source? I am not looking to build a CM7 based ROM or release anything, just change some minor things for my own consumption:
- Not have mmcblk1p2 mount as /sd-ext [currently set in a .mk file according to vanilla CM7 source for olympus]
- Since webtop doesnt work in CM7 (and I dont need it) expand /data(p16) to include the partition space of /osh(p13) [means mucking around with the partition table, and the init scripts to change mounts]
- have emmc mount on /sdcard and external sdcard mount on /sd-ext so that backups from other ROMs work
Cheers

It's not for Atrix but you can just do it by modifying model name.

Thanks for the info - not quite what I was looking for though. If you follow these instructions you build the vanilla CM7. I wanted to get/build the Atrix customized bits (i.e fingerprint scanner for example) which are not in the vanilla sources. I am guessing that can be pulled down from Atrix-dev github. Original post was to see if there was an easy way to do that.
After looking at the atrix developer github, found a default.xml for the .repo that should work, and used it.

Well I'm a big dummy. Looks like the only thing that was working was the trackpad navigation. I never use the scan/unlock feature so I just assumed it was working also.

Anyone else successfully built from source with full FP functionality?

I tried replacing default.xml in .repo with the one in Atrix dev git repository, and then pulling down the code. That lead to multiple build failure, so I am assuming hte changes in the atrix dev github are not synced with the changes upstream coz vanilla cyanogenmod builds fine.
I am not even getting the "Device Settings" option that shows up in the weekly build, though the trackpad works fine. I'll try looking at the Settings.apk code to see if there is something I am missing.
cmkoj: Do you have a local_manifest.xml that works and gives you a good build? Open to sharing that?
ah ghost_og i see, i was like how could he get it to work np though anyhow i think one has to implement this: https://github.com/Atrix-Dev-Team/android_packages_apps_Settings into teh build aswell to get fp (read the latest commits there ). second to that probably one has to use https://github.com/Atrix-Dev-Team/android_device_motorola_olympus.git with the branch fingerprint int he local manifest to get it to work than (i have tried this like a few times still not working ...)
acerbix im not sure what you need? do you need a local manifest that makes fp work as it should ( i havent managed to get it to work yet) or just one that works for building? i can sure share the latter one

Lets know if you get it working I'm building too [clobber build just for the heck of it - will keep you posted]
Thanks a ton, cmkoj for all the help/pointers!

ah ghost_og i see, i was like how could he get it to work np though anyhow i think one has to implement this: https://github.com/Atrix-Dev-Team/android_packages_apps_Settings into teh build aswell to get fp (read the latest commits there ). second to that probably one has to use https://github.com/Atrix-Dev-Team/android_device_motorola_olympus.git with the branch fingerprint int he local manifest to get it to work than (i have tried this like a few times still not working ...)
acerbix im not sure what you need? do you need a local manifest that makes fp work as it should ( i havent managed to get it to work yet) or just one that works for building? i can sure share the latter one

Thank you for pointing out the Settings and Device branches. Was definitely using the old gingerbread branches before. I just replaced those two folders with the fingerprint branch and am building again. Will check back in once it's done.
*Update* Still no luck. I tried using the updated Device and Settings folders but only navigation works still. Dang.

Away from my Atrix so cant try this yet - do you think the kernel matters? Did you switch to the kernel included in the build?

Hey guys, I also noticed that android_ frameworks_base has a fingerprint branch with updated commits from t0dbld. I've included this third replacement folder and will be trying another build. Might want to try including this with the 2 branches crnjok pointed out above. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for this one.
I have not replaced any kernels prior to building and use what comes with the stock build. That's a whole other issue for me. When I try to compile just the kernel my zImage ends up being 1mb bigger than faux's and the packaged boot.img I create will not boot. I'm guessing this is due to my being on a 32-bit machine, but I'm not positive.

ye i forgot to mention that one lol, i thought its in the fingerprint build though. for my use i manually git cloned the vendor_motorola repo into /working_dir/vendor/ but havent had any luck. regarding the kernel afaik if you put the additional repos into your local_manifest.xml it should use the kernel from there (if one is available). but i dont really think the kernel is needed to be changed, since on my builds i had the authentec.truesuite (or whatever the process for fp is called) running, only the fp unlock/device option were missing (there is a Fingerprintsomething.apk in the vendor repo of atrix dev team that i have had pulled in and built with but it didnt work, so yes im slowly giving up (second to that i tried setting up a build env on a second pc that drastically faster than the other one an i cannot get repo sync to sync android_prebuilt - just deleted the whole thing and did init again...)
as for the local_manifest.xml it should look like this http://pastebin.com/ccvVi2k9 for building the gb (that is with nav functioning fp but no unlock) if you want to get unlock to work you need to probably put in the other ones aswell (just by copying the <project path="device/motorola/olympus"
name="Atrix-Dev-Team/android_device_motorola_olympus.git"
remote="gh"
revision="gingerbread"/>
part and changing the name to appropriate and teh revision in all to fingerprint)
thanks go to fattire from the nook color forums who thought me how to make and edit these local_manifest.xml files and i used his file as a template for mine aswell.
i have to admit it im slowly sick of not being able to build one with working fp =/
Guys, see here for what directories to be pulled from atrix-dev-team github vs what to be kept in original CM7:

Try updating ~/android/system/.repo/manifests/default.xml. I used this to fix the problem with the prebuilt repo sync:
Another workaround is to add the following remote definition:
Code:
<remote name="github-https"
fetch="https://github.com/" />
Then change the project definition to:
Code:
<project path="prebuilt" name="CyanogenMod/android_prebuilt" remote="github-https"/>
Once things are back to normal, you can remove the additional remote, and restore the original manifest.

Hi,
This thread is to discuss building CM9 build from source for Atrix. In order to do that, you will need to overlay Atrix specific stuff over the vanilla CM9 code.
There are two overlays possible:
- The official Atrix-dev team repositories
- The official Photon-dev team Atrix repositories
There is more (visible) activity on the photon team than the Atrix team right now so personally I am using the Photon team's Atrix repositories. In order to use the Photon repo you might have to edit olympus-vendor-blobs.mk in vendor/motorola/olympus. It has a few sunfire dependencies that will need to be changed to olympus. I submitted a pull request to the photon dev team, so those changed might be merged in sometime soon
Attaching two scripts that you can use in android/system to overlay vanilla CM9 code for Atrix: one for the Atrix-dev-team overlay, and another for the Photon-dev-team. Both build cleanly without issues as of this time.
I built the kangs but havent tested yet. Will test when I get home and back up my CM7
I used the build instructions here and made minor changes: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21077425&postcount=1

Copying over from the CM7 source build thread...
Fingerprint needs to be properly ported. Building on cm7 code just gives you a jumbled mess.
I know its a little more setup but you really need proper cm9 source to build correctly. You can overlay the fingerprint code in the device tree and still keep the latest cm9 sync.
Its actually pretty easy to set up.
Repo init cm9githubyatayata... -b ics
Repo sync -j1 (yes j1 cm9 github is taxed)
Pull the vendor and device

I got past that initial problem by just copying the entire source file rather than trying to do the edits.
Currently stuck applying the group of changes from the "packages/apps/Settings" tree. The "SecuritySettings.java" file seems to have a lot of additional stuff for the face unlock, so it is really hard to tell where the FP stuff goes.
No luck so far with the line by line changes. Next attempt will be to try just replacing the files.
CM9 will build with no issue without the FP unlock. Just need to add the "device/motorola/olympus" directory and the olympus proprietaries. The Atrix Dev Team keeps these on their github under the ICS branch.

(I have to preface all of my comments with the observation that I really don't know what I"m doing.)
It seems like we have proper source for building the basic CM9 on the Atrix. There isn't a camera yet, but the Atrix Dev Team's ICS branch seems to have the right files for /device/vendor/motorola/olympus and vendor/motorola/olympus directories. Basic version builds with no issue.
Trying to merge the FP unlock code into the Atrix stuff seems much more challenging. I don't think that replacing the changed files will work, since the Security Settings seem to have some dramatic changes made for the Face Unlock.
(On a side note, two factor biometric authentication would be really cool if it ever gets working....)
When I say proper source I mean your source base. Overlaying ics vendor and device on gingerbread source is not going to make cm9, but cm7 breaks and partially checkouts a few ics branches. If you start with current up to date cm9 source from cyanogenmod then modify you have a better chance.
As far as porting fp use a diff viewer and a syntax highlighting editor. Ideally you should separate then fp class and point to it by adding to the include.

ive managed to get cm9 to build several times, even before we started on the cm7+fp, and the older builds worked well with a few of o2x libs (i can put a link with the ones i used as a flashable zip here), the only things not working were obviously camera, and hw acceleration (although maps, gallery and games/benches worked, but slower than on cm7), after that ive tried to build it again with cm9 + atrix dev team cm9/ics sources, which built nice, but on bootup i get a permanent com.android.phone stopped, so one would have to edit some (probably ril related) files or use the ones from photon cm9. As was said already, the cm7 fp code needs a rewrite for cm9, overlaying cm7 over cm9 will just break stuff. additionally there is updated cm9 code from atrix dev team but, since there are no useful proprietary binaries, there is no real need to update the sources

Hope we dont need to rewrite the entire FP code - just port it/find the right hooks into app/settings and frameworks/base. Will look at CM9 code later this evening. Will be slow since this is my first time w CM9.

very nice,
one thing, it seems you know how to go around this stuff and i am very new to this..., so i was wondering if you would have some advice what to read/learn to be able to edit/fix this (c++/java programming?), as like this i cant or dont know how to do code tweaking, if i get a hang of it i would gladly work on it than.
second to that the good thing is fp is actually working in cm9 (the navigation), so the drivers for it work, we jsut in fact need to implement the app as we had to in the cm7 kangs now.

Checkout the Atrix-Dev-Team github. As far as I know t0dbld wrote all new code for it from the ground up. Which is why it has the added navigation features and multiple finger support.

Well - there were several other PM'd requests for this info - so I thought I'd post the info here.
Disclaimer: I am not a comp-sci grad, just a geek If you have easier ways to learn C or Java please post here.
I am guessing you already know your way around linux, shell prompt/scripting etc. Next thing to learn would be C. I'd say C is easier to learn than C++ since there is a lot less to it (no classes and OO) and most of the native code is in C. If you know C, learning C++ or java is no problem
I learnt both C and java while I was hacking - that gave me the incentive to learn I tried reading books and found them to be either very boring (lots of unnecessary stuff) or confusing.
The books that I used most was K&R C - http://www.amazon.com/Programming-Language-2nd-Brian-Kernighan/dp/0131103628 - Supposed to be a beginner's book but can be confusing. I mostly used it as a reference once I learnt C.
This book helped a lot as well: http://www.amazon.com/Data-Structures-Using-Aaron-Tenenbaum/dp/0131997467
The way I learnt C was mostly by asking around, trial and error
An online tutorial: http://crasseux.com/books/ctutorial/
And also: http://www.cprogramming.com/
I never did really learn Java - I hack around, mostly get things wrong, and sometimes get things right
A good Java tutorial - http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/
My advice, for what its worth - learn C first. That gives you a strong basis for learning other languages. I haven't really spent much time learning Java or C# but have written working programs/tools in both languages
Finally - Google is your friend when you are stuck - which you will be
Best of luck - I will be happy to help as you learn.

The Atrix-Dev-Teams's frameworks/base had deprecated files that haven't been updated since December. We found that some of the non-atrix related upstream code from CM had changed, so this was causing issues with FP unlocker. Instead of using the FP branch files, we ended up manually merging or copying the updated Atrix-Dev-Team stuff on top of the vanilla CM7.2 source for frameworks/base. The atrix related stuff is exactly the same, it's just the underyling CM7 code that is different from what is on the dev team's github. Checkout the CM7 build thread for more details and workarounds.

Ghost_og is correct. We built this on CM7.2 codebase by maually merging the Atrix-dev team's changes to the CM7.2 files. Without the merge, CM7.2 the Atrix-dev-team overlays will not compile.

If you want to compile 7.1, you dont need my framework/base. Use it only if you are pulling CM7.2 code and overlaying Atrix-dev changes on it.
Hello!
I've spend some days to compile JB for TPT ROW 32Gb. And there are the following results:
Works:
--Display. Interface is _very_ smooth
--Pen
--Automatic brightness
--External SD
--USB host
--Bluetooth
--WiFi (Partially: Signal strength indicator broken. Disable avoiding poor networks in advanced menu)
--GPS
--Internal sdcard
Doesn't work:
--Camera
--3G
--Sound
I also had to repack boot image to include configuration changes (init* files).
See attached logcat.
next step I will try to add proprietary source files for Wifi and camera and compile JB again.

Great work mate! I assume that if we want to test this later on our tablets, we need to be rooted?

Woohoo! Look forward to trying this!
This is amazing work! Thank you.
I see Lenovo finally released the ICS source code. Maybe this will help you get some other stuff working.
Also, how were you able to flash your build? Have you not upgraded to OTA3? I'm assuming you still have CWR working.
Thanks again.
Great work, thanks! I'm glad that there is work going on!
Great news! As I installed ota3 before rooting my device, I hope that there will be some way to get cwm and root working...
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Very happy that you're working on a new ROM for our device!!!
And I really hope that someone finds a way to root OTA3 since I was also too dumb to do that before updating.
Cheers!
Wow!! Keep up the good work!!!
can't wait, great work!
Great!
I thought I will be first
According to full_indigo device ID, it is AOSP, not CM? Wow..
I think together we could at last make 3G work as other hw are relatively easy to fix(may be not true for camera as sources again changed). I familiar with Qualcomm RIL framework and can't wait to see how it works with tablet and more opensource hardware module..

Lenovo released ICS open source code but they forgot to release new kernel sources. This prevents me from building bcmdhd driver instead of bcm4329. It looks like JB is oriented for NL80211 wireless interface and not WEXT.
this isnt for the K1 is it
It's for tpt only
When can we see this in a flashable version? Not to sound pushy, I know we have all see the development slow down.
Are there any other tricks we need to get this up and running? I flashed partition 7 and 8 using NVflash but my tablet is stuck in a boot loop at "lenovo"
EDIT: Is this incompatible with CWM recovery?

yes I also tried to get more info but for now no response. At last they released external folder of their custom build, which also contains alsa-audio, as I seen in cm9 device tree, it should fix audio with ease(maybe after patch as sources again changed in JB).

Some of existing software probably blocks normal startup. It is always advised to clean dalvik-cache and user data (backup first). It's up to you.
Right after Lenovo logo you should see 'Android: Optimizing applications' or something similar.

Great a lot of people have been waiting for this will flash and test it out later tonight
Thanks for your work! Great to see more people with the right knowledge with their hands on a Note Pro.
Unfortunately I use the camera daily....I'll keep an eye on this, though, in case that gets worked out.

I'm a retired deveopler and don't mind helping out a little where I can. I've enjoyed tweaking my P900 to the max & I'm also glad to finally see some stuff coming out here on XDA for the P900 wifi version. Not much activity on any other forum for this device either. Most likely because of the price of the device and people worring about the Knox tripping issue. I noticed on another forum that someone had compiled a fully functional kernel however they too were experiencing issues with the camera. Anybody have any ideas of whats causing the camera issue? I can possibly help out with the developement of a AOSP rom, or a blazing fast slimmed down ROM. I have plenty of developement knowledge in this area, if there are any interest for one. As for the Kernel issues I'm not too familiar with the compiling however most likely could figure it out.

Flashed this kernel and my tablet won't boot

? I hope you made a backup of your stock kernel before flashing...
Has anyone else flashed this kernel and can confirm if it is booting or not?

I started from scratch and flashed the tweaked p900 rom and this kernel and now it is working great it seems to be much quicker then what it was I really appreciate your work and it makes this tablet what it should be

Can you describe what happens when you select the "Camera" application. Does it force close, not launch, display some type of error. If you could provide the details of what happens, it may be possible to provide a working solution or "Work around."
Also, try installing another camera application from the Android Market and see if that application works. Maybe using another camera source will work and that could be a temporary work around till the issue us resolved. Let us know. Thanks!

Ok, Thanks. We'll see if we can figure this thing out...
Did you try installing another camera app from the play store and see what happens when you launch it?

here's my observations:
1. Samsung Knox does not get removed as claimed in OP
2. Knox FC every time something is installed and uninstalled (likely under different circumstances too)
3. front camera works perfectly fine
4. rear camera does indeed fail
5. Google camera and 3rd party camera apps fail too
6. Z Device Test still detects all the hardware properties of the rear camera (but maybe that info is retrieved from elsewhere in the /system)
7a. all logcat apps do not work. i waited about 3 to 4 minutes for each to load.
7b. I haven't used it on this tab in a long time so I don't know if kernel caused this
7c. yes, I granted SU to the logcat apps, and later verified that SU wasn't denied.
my relevant info:
p900 USA wifi-only 64gb model
P900UEU1ANC5 (XAR)
edit:
to anyone that cannot boot after installing:
1. try wiping cache and dalvik cache
2. re download and try again if above doesn't fix it
3. if above doesn't fix it and you're on NAE, try updating to ANC5 (or newer?) THEN flashing the kernel again
4. if you're on a version newer than ANC5 that might be the problem and you are out of luck until the kernel is updated for it.
don't ask me about how to update, that's your burden

stock, Google camera, and Z Device Test
edit: flashlight does work for me
edit #2: with stock, you can't get to front camera again after switching to rear, because the app will just close when the rear fails. mine was already on front, then I switched to rear and

it's permissive
and camera works in stock kernel with selinux permissive.
z device test sees two cameras, so it doesn't kernel problem. back camera and flashlight dont work for me. front camera works fine. i dont have any ideas except permissions
if anyone want to help, this is a kernel without any mods https://yadi.sk/d/-RWbv8htbYW28
ps: replaced link above. logcat is working here

that might be the app not able to turn on this tab's LED
torch apps work
Okay, this has nothing to do with me since I have P905 with stock kernel. I just read this thread by curiosity and though one thing about camera. Can you open test menu anyway on that device which opens on 3G models (and phones) by typing *#0*# to dialer (P900 has no dialer right?) There you can perform some tests to device and one is to check does camera work right.
Hope this helps, or then it wont

p900 doesn't have dialer
z device test detects both cameras..
i now realize why it seems much faster - i am running with interactive and fiops and it is contantly at 2000mhz no lower frequencies are being used - i though it was like this on performance not interactive - obviously the battery is not great right now lol
