[Q] Are there N7000 kernels with Video4Linux(V4L2) & USB Video Class(UVC) enabled? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

[Q] Are there N7000 kernels with Video4Linux(V4L2) & USB Video Class(UVC) enabled?
I am trying to hook up an external camera (borescope) via USB OTG and these drivers need to be enabled. They apparently are not enabled in stock kernel. I am currently running XXLSZ stock ROM with PhilZ stock kernel.
Is anyone aware of a kernel with these drivers enabled?
Evidently requires the following in the defconfig or .config file:
CONFIG_VIDEO_DEV=y
CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L2_COMMON=y
CONFIG_VIDEO_MEDIA=y
CONFIG_USB_VIDEO_CLASS=y
CONFIG_V4L_USB_DRIVERS=y
CONFIG_USB_VIDEO_CLASS_INPUT_EVDEV=y
I'm sure this is a simple change but beyond my skill level...
Thanks for any help.

My kernel (link in Ori Dev section) has all but CONFIG_USB_VIDEO_CLASS is not set.
You can try to see if it works. Otherwise I can change this setting in the next version.
BTW, what is the benefit of external camera? N7000 already has two internal camera.

I actually just flashed your Kernel yesterday! Thanks for your continued work on the Note.
It does look like the CONFIG_USB_VIDEO_CLASS needs to be set, as the app I'm trying to use gives the error 'Device has no UVC driver'. I would be extremely grateful if you would enable that in your next version. I have been trying to learn how to build my own kernel but quickly getting overwhelmed...
Another change I have seen referenced is 'the permission of /dev/video0 is set 0666 in /ueventd.xxxx.rc'. Not sure what that refers to but sure you will. Here are a couple of places where this capability is outlined a little more with links to source:
https://bitbucket.org/neuralassembly/simplewebcam
http://brain.cc.kogakuin.ac.jp/research/usb-e.html
Regarding the benefit of an external camera - it is simply being able to hook up a camera that can go where the Note can't, or where you want a camera located away from the Note but still see the image on the Note. In my case, I have a cheap USB borescope/endoscope which I use to look at and take pictures/video of exhaust valves, cam, etc inside my engine. The other benefit for me is the portability of the Note - I can hook the borescope up to my laptop, but it would be more convenient to work with the much smaller Note. Others are using the external camera capability to hook up a USB webcam in their car to use as a dashcam or rear view camera recorded/displayed on their phone.
I do have this working on an old tablet (Huawei MediaPad), but really would like to get it working on the Note. Thanks for your interest!

i will make it for you to test soon

It was for SAMSUNG TW JB 4.1.2 ROM, the kernel was special version forest1971's kernel noted in his signature. WOn't work with your CM11 4.4.2.
You might check with forest to see if he still has this version - I don't think it would be correct for me to forward his work without his permission.

Any chance of tweaking the charge rate in this kernel to allow the use of higher output chargers like the ipad charger that outputs 3 times the current of the stock one? The stock charge rate is locked to 650ma which is close to the output of the stock charger that came with the phone, regardless of which ac charger you use. Don't even mention the charge rate when plugged into a usb port.
my biggest gripe so far with this otherwise excellent phone.
Jacking up the limit to around 3000ma on both ac and usb, and letting the phone draw the maximum current that the adapter can supply would really speed things up.

Do you have an idea on how to go about doing that? I'm actually a novice in this modding business, so I can't really do any original mods, but I can try to incorporate mods that others have done, providing that instructions are provided.
Having said that, I'm actually reluctant to attempt mods that tamper with voltage or current settings like what you're proposing. Maybe there's a good reason Samsung has limited the charging current. I don't want to fry my phone.
For now, I'm looking at mods that improve functionality, like BLN or CIFS. Maybe some overclocking of the CPU/GPU at later stage once I have more understanding of the platform.

That's normal when you use custom kernels. It would disappear if you reflash with a stock kernel.
root your phone first, then install kernel flasher, then flash original kernel, and finally install this kernel via kernel flasher and you will won't see the triangle anymore.

[Q] Usb host support (otg) cyanogenmod 10 stable with samsung galaxy s gt i9000

Hi everyone, as I said in the title I have some questions about the usb host support on galaxy s gt i9000 with cyanogenmod 10 stable.
Everything started with the desire to attach my xbox 360 controller to my phone, unfortunately I realized it was not so easy on my model; so I started digging on the internet trying to find a way to achieve what I was seeking.
Everything that has to do with the usb host support is only a matter of software (kernel) or harware aswell?
Is my i9000 doomed to stay with this support forever?
And the Big question, does cyanogenmod 10 have this support? Is the kernel of this wersion supposed to have this support?
Thanks to everyone who can help me...
Nice. Today i have near the same question. But, i think, i can help you a bit.
The USB-Host-Support is coming with the kernel. One of them with support should be Semaphore.
But i have at least the same question.
I have Fishears Rom installed, but can´t get the app "usb host controller" working, because it is missing the S3C USB Host driver.
Does anyone know, how i can get it working with fishears?
Thanks

If not, need to find some kernel that support but most otg supported kernel starts at cm9 as base.

[ROM/MOD][WIP]CM for locked BL

Hello guys
First, big fat disclamier:
THIS IS NOT WORKING. Please don't try this for fun, only if you're willing to put in some time to help me get this fixed.
@djolivier and @letama worked out a way to get CM10 running on Xperia S with locked bootloader, loosely based on the work @atis112 did for Xperia U.
For the past couple of days I've been trying to port it to our beloved T.
It does sort of boot but there is nothing on screen. Logcat is working however and so is adb shell (though no su) so we have some way of debugging.
At the moment there is a working recovery (CWM 6.0.4.6 for locked BL by @davidmarco), enter it by pressing vol+ when the led is blue (it will turn green, then red). Here you will have an su shell and you can get dmesg and /proc/last_kmsg.
Please read the thread by djolivier to get an idea of how it works. In the last couple of pages you will find everything I have tried so far and some insightful answers from letama.
So the main thing now is to hunt down which are the libs/drivers we need.
I will try to get some more info into this thread asap but first I wanted to get it up so those of you who think they can help can get going.

This includes the .489 stock kernel, which is probably the best for compatibility.

Letama already helped me a lot over in the other thread, getting it up to this point. But now we need to find some very device specific stuff, that's best left to the people who actually have the device to test and debug. My time is limited this week and I don't have a need for this since mine is unlocked, it's just for the sport, so I figured, let's get some other people in on the action

now im not too sure of this so i maybe completely wrong so please correct me if i am but im sure i read somewhere that the CM kernel drivers and STOCK kernel drivers differ in some way or another ..... again i repeat im not certain on this but if this is the case then certain things in the rom may need redirecting to the STOCK drivers rather than CM drivers as they done exist? ..... if i am right i wouldn't have a clue where to start to be honest but obviously you cant change the drivers in the kernel because then it wouldn't work on LB ..... perhaps ask rimmer for some help or advice as he ported MIUI to stock?

Yes that's just about right. We cannot change the drivers in the kernel but what we can do, and what I've been trying to do, is trying to match the drivers in the rom with the kernel, i.e. swapping out CM drivers for drivers from the stock .489 firmware. But there are quite a lot, that's why we need more people trying, testing, debugging. We could go another way, namely build new CM from source to match the kernel but that's beyond me I'm afraid.
letama said:
There is no easy way to solve that I'm afraid. You can try to play with dlls (check this for a list), but it has big chances to fail. The proper way to do that is to get fxp repo, patch hal to match stock kernel and recompile cm.

i know less than you and stuck on windows 8.1 which makes it even harder for me to do anything to help .... i hope that this can get up and running ..... providing you can get screen and touch working its more than enough proof of concept of what can be achieved and if enough different devices get going this way then maybe just maybe teams like CM will revert back from thier custom kernel (which i dont like) and start using stock kernels in builds (we can all dream right?)
Any updates on this? I can help as a beta tester or help with building on my pc.

Not much going on on my end. I've been running on the leaked stock 4.3 for the last few days. I did have a little go on using the kernel from that rom to boot CM10.2 but I've not made much progress, seems that SELinux is throwing a spanner in the works.
If anyone wants to have a go, here's what you can do. Get the stock .489 here.
We should try swapping out .so in /system/lib/hw one at a time. You can do this by booting to CWM, mount /system and adb push, chmod 0644 the file and reboot. Get a logcat, reboot to CWM and get dmesg and last_kmsg
Code:
adb logcat > logcat
adb shell cat /proc/last_kmsg > last_kmsg
adb shell dmesg > dmesg
Lather, rinse, repeat. It is a slow and tedious process, so the more the merrier

I replaced hwcomposer.msm8960.so, that seems yo have fixed it. Also tried a couple of others that didn't work: gralloc.msm8960.so (can't start), copybit.msm8960.so (brought back the camera probs). Still no screen.
Most prominent spam now is
Code:
smd_pkt_open: DATA5_CNTL open failed -19
I also noticed this in logcat
Code:
I/clearpad_fwloader( 681): hanlde_arg: option = [default]

E/clearpad_fwloader( 681): read_sysfs: Unable to open fwfamily
That is the touchscreen. There is indeed no /sys/devices/virtual/input/mice/name. I'm not sure if it is related to the no video issue but it's a problem nonetheless.

Seems a bit of a dead end. Our stock kernel just seems to be to different from the stock kernel.
No-one else seems to want to pitch in and try some stuff out.
Might have another go with 4.3 when the official Sony's finally out.
it might be a stupid idea but why dont we swap out every .so file from the miui rom witch works with the stock kernel?
like i mentioned before
Why don't we try to do what they did with the moto defy/bravo and run a 2nd init. http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sour...9ICIDA&usg=AFQjCNHMzrlHTlHC4EjfkhTkZxavJbEJow

If you had read the other thread, you would have known that I've already tried a lot of .so's from stock firmware but nog all of them work. This is the hard part, finding the ones that work.

Well the first part, the hijacking, is exactly what does mod is doing. With regards to the 2nd-init program, I'm not sure that init itself is the problem. The "only" problem we have is finding drivers/libs that are compatible with both CM and stock kernel. But I could be off though. If someone wants to build us a 2nd-init go right ahead
Wow just came back to the T forums to see how things were going and I see this! Hopefully Tim can port it I'm sure he can
Sent from my XT1058 using Tapatalk
I honestly don't think 2nd init would make a big difference, as TiMiN8R has already stated, the problems are the drivers. You can now either ask FXP to use drivers from the Sony 4.3 Stock kernel or do it yourself...
Good luck on this, you'll surely make it.

If you pulled in my changes, then yes, I'm guilty. I think I've now fixed this problem again, just get my last change to drivers/usb/host/ehci-omap.c and it should work again.
About hdmi: It's not so simple
The moto HDMI-stuff needs to be migrated into the OMAP HDMI-driver to get it working without (missing) proprietary userspace parts (parts of the hardware-composer which call libhdmi).
I think I'll take a look at your kernel-changes on the weekend.

Michael
in my opinion it would be the best to focus on HDMI.
Im waiting for a custom rom with HDMI. stock rom is slow but HDMI is working and I use it really often for watching TV shows with CineX serien and the lapdock would be usable.
Please focus on HDMI

I got a micro hdmi cable, i'll try to do my best, currently is starting but I don't have video neither on hdmi neither on the phone display and I can't seem to make my adb shell working.
Regards
if you get HDMI working you should setup a donation link
it would be so great using kitkat and the webtop. I would be so happy. sadly im no developer and dont have any glue on how to do this :/

for the moment this is all we got
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50109877&postcount=4554
acording to @dtrail1 after some combined work the kernel is good
now that I got the cable of course I will try, at the moment I try to understand what is missing

Battery life on this Kernel is great but 3G internet stopped working every time when I use it for a while.

I'll update it some moments, right now I'm testing a merge of stargo and dtrail1 work, it has multiple options (overclocking and underclocking) and is very stable, but I have a crash in dmesg (not afecting performance or stability, only visual discomfort) that is not happening on razr (spyder).

try with the new upload, I'm testing it right now, hopefully usb changes fixes the modem problem

what's the correct way to install these? tried flashing both in SS 3.11 and got black screen; return to menu.
ended up copying the kernel.zip files into the signed CM11 nightly .zip and flashing, which appears to have worked... except I'm not seeing the lower 100mhz clock speed or higher (above 307) GPU setting when I enter trickster mod.
recos?
lastly, what's the difference between kernel.zip and kernel_jbx.zip?
thanks!

jbx is the over/under clocked kernel, you have to install it in ss, I only tested them on cm11 and I have ss 3.65, maybe I'll try to see why is not flashing correctly under ss 3.11
the kernel.zip is the clean 3.0.31 but is not 100% 3.0.31.
I'll update it with some new changes, hdmi disabled everywhere because I see that I got very good battery without it.
Regards
I'm happy to say that latest kernel has great standby and so far I had no crash on nothing and also updated the jbx kernel
Regards
Lucian
i would be glad to know if you have made any achievements on hdmi?
or is it impossible to get it working?
I believe that with the older version of lucize's kernel (newest dont because it seems to be disabled by default) + this hack http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2082827 meaby get some buggy thing working...but I don't be sure... stargos tested time ago and work but it had wrong resolution...but , again, it will be a bugged thing...

first time I what it to be stable and after that we will work on hdmi too, so far so good, I have excellent standby and no crashes
there are hdmi things that can be ported from 3.4, I saw panel init and stuff like that missing from this kernel so I think it should be doable
and a picture with current battery status, I must say that this is the first time I see something like this, and in the middle of the week.
Regards
Thanks for great work

Way cool, will backup can test what's listed as working and see if i can find more of what's not working.
Thanks
Has changed the default language en_US.Update rom url
Not bad!
So I gave this test ROM a try. It's nice to see KitKat running on an Atrix 4G! I'm so excited to see some progress!
However, there are definitely several issues with it. The problems I found are:
Calls/text doesn't work
Mobile data doesn't work (says AT&T 4G but no connection)
SuperSU doesn't appear to work (crashed when opening and wouldn't let an app have root access)
Bluetooth didn't turn on for me (but I see you seemed to get it working, maybe it was just bad luck)
No WIFI (doesn't scan as you stated in the post)
Couldn't test any apps or camera because I couldn't restore my apps without root, and the camera must be a part of gapps now, which I also didn't install.
I was also gonna post some screenshots but it wouldn't let me snapshot (said storage error?)
Just thought I would sum up my experience so far. Thanks for letting us test out this promising new ROM! :good:
why need to test this ROM if K did not update his kernel from GitHub? had all same issues isn't it?

K's kernels are CM9 and CM10.1 based. This is a CM11 based kernel with a build date of 6 Aug 14
Calls - No go
BT (file transfer) - Go
Wifi - same as OP reported
Battery - same as OP reported (There's no way that after 8 hrs it should still be at 100%)
Speakers/Headphones - No go
Apollo/DSP Manager - Crash
Ravilov's Battery Fix app - scripts not able to be executed
Thanks!!!
Mobile data seems to be working, Bluetooth and superuser. ART included, I'll do more testing later.
thank for the rom!

Don't be harsh to K, as I was fixing audio segfault in CM 4.4.4, the more I realized most of the audio problem (like Skype, Bluetooth error) is more ROM related than Kernal related. Most of them are due to incompatiblity of hardware HAL files in our unfinished Moto's 4.0 rom...... Of course Mobile Data HAL is sill PAIN IN THE AXX... ...

And what about to use - for now - the old kernel like epinter's CM10?, in XOOM kitkat they use and old 2.x kernel too, the hardware acceleration its not really a problem compared to use and unfinished kernel with more issues to solve.
Anyway we agree that Kristianp is doing it's best work to continue developing the 3.1 kernel, so any negative comentary should not be allowed as most of us are only users and some cooperate with minimal things.
I could boot my second atrix, now time to BL Unlock, root, etc and it's ready to test some KK roms.
It's great to see the "4.4.4" in the settings
Mobile internet works fine.
Kitkat feels quite snappy on this "too old, too slow" hardware.
Thank you so much for keeping the Atrix alive.
Will try to install the Play Store and test out some apps!
cannot wait to try this!
Booted up fine and looks slick. had to do some searching around to find how to switch to ART.
Also had to use Z's recovery_4.3.img... ROM won't install with TWRP.
Wish I could do more testing like battery but it's not feasible at the moment.
Looking forward to other releases to test.
Really love the tons of options available in KK.

Which version of TWRP?

I think 2.6... not so sure.
TWRP 2.6.3 gives errors and aborts installation.

I believe, based off of what i've seen, 2.6.3.0 is the minimum to flash 4.4 ROMs, but 2.7 is reccommended.

There's no 2.7 for Atrix and apparently there's also no 4ext Recovery, so the only ways are CWM or Z's recovery (will try Z's on Monday or Tuesday)

Thank friends test feedback .
Apply a new job,computer is not in my city, so the update rate slow down (my technique is limited).
I look forward to Z 4.4.4
please forgive my terrible english.
Please upload it to a diferrent pleace
