initramfs from Froyo ? - Galaxy 3 Android Development

Hello all ! I need a initramfs from Froyo, i'm trying to build a kernel from i5510 to our i5800, and i'm making progress..
So if anyone have that, that would save me some time
Thanks .

repack-zImage.sh should have all to extract your own initramfs from any zImage.

Wow sounds neat! Is the kernel of the i5510 so much better then the one of i5800? Just because it is stock 2.2 ?

Can't you just pull it out the zImage from JPF?
EDIT: Sorry i just read that you've wrote the script to pull it out without kernel source is not working on froyo... So what shall we do?
EDIT 2: "I tried with JPF and with JPA-custom, so changes are really good that you won't have to bother with the above and can just go ahead and do your own initramfs modifications." New version of the script seems to be working.

Newest version should be also working for froyo zImages...

There's an update. I hope it works now with all zImages which have a initramfs in them. If not: I'd be interested to hear on what zImage it failed so I maybe can do something about it.

[FX-MOD][SENSE] Reboot option in power menu 3-in-1

uses htc widgets. minimal footprint (check out the patch).
enjoy
--
flashable zips for _deodexed_ roms: (do not flash them over odexed ones. if in doubt, consult your chef)
as the source code for htc's _heavily_ modified and extended android framework is not publicly available, implementing features like this isn't that straightforward as it is for aosp-based roms
i took the 2.2_r1.1 aosp sources, coded the reboot entry with the dialog (directly into the power menu to maintain a mininal footprint), created dummy stubs for external htc framework references, looked up and hardcoded htc string/icon resource ids, fiddled with the code until it barely compiled
then i baksmali'd my own build, took only the relevant changes, and injected them into the baksmali'd original
hi,
good work ;-) but i have one question:
did this work on auraxtsense 7.6? if yes, what file i need to download?

2.10.406.2, just added
Very nice! Love it. Please provide some more instructions, compatibility issues, which ROMs should this work with.
Flashed on MCR 9
Finnaly booted ))
Take more than first time boot after flash the rom
Very nice work! Thanks!

Really nice! That's what I was looking for!
I now have the reboot option in my AuraxTSense 7.6 I flashed 2.12.911.1 at first because I didn't know which one to use and it worked flawlessly. Now flashing the version 2.10.406.2 since it seems that's the one you are saying it's the one compatible with AuraxTSense
Thanks a lot. I'm really happy now. My rom now has everything I wanted

check your framework build number (settings -> about phone -> software information)
select the package matching your build number
flash it in recovery mode (first boot may take quite a long time)

I flashed 2.09.405.8 over Modified Official 2.2 by ieftim and I don't see any reboot option when I long press the power button. What am I missing?

Do you think there should be any side effect now that I flashed it? Everything looks OK (reboot took very little, not like everybody else is reporting, like nothing changed) but do you think I should reflash/nandroid restore?

Maybe because the ROM structures are diferents?
Don't try to use files from SGS FW (the tuto from Nokia7Vista its about this phone, not SG3).
Its just a knowledge base to us!
Ohh .. Any idea how other guys are making custom roms?

tun.ko for Kernel 2.6.29 [email protected] #2

I just found out tun.ko needs to be compiled for the specific kernel version. Anyone can help me with the binary or point out where to find the source for the tun and kernel 2.6.29 [email protected] #2? Thank you.

any reason for using this kernel? tun.ko is included in decad3nce's kernels.
kernel source can be obtained from HTC if you don't want to take the easy way and use decad3nce's kernel.
p.s. We have a Q & A Forum for this.

This is Zenulator's ZenKernel. You might get a response by posting in his thread here, but fyi he's not actively developing anymore.
Thanks both of you for the great info. I think I will try the easy way first and use decad3nce's kernel.
I tried decad3nce's kernel and the battery mod in the same thread and the tun driver worked fine. However, I felt I liked the instant screen wake up of the ZenKernel. And the battery lives of both kernels seem to be almost the same. So I went ahead and grabbed the source and compiled the tun.ko. Tested working fine and attached in case anyone needs it. Thanks for the help.

No contribs, yet more 'thanks' than you, in less time. Let's ask the people in aosp's IRC room as well who contribs.
Also, you must be reading wrong, I haven't been asking for help for much of anything. But, that's to be expected from someone who can't even spell loser right.

Someone should give gsam101 this info...so that he could do kernel compiling...
I got it via twitter .. I'm downloading it boys, except something coming... ^^.
And no, i don't need a VM, I use Linux every day.
Gsam are what you knew "play" with the source code? And if so what are you know if you could put a support for the ext4 partition? or overclock? I saw the performance of your core Jpb which was not bad, so I think you're going to make a beautiful ring =)
As far as I can see, there's the .config file missing. Looks somewhat like a text adventure to me: The one who guesses Samsung's configuration the best, is the one who wins.
I already wrote Samsung about the missing file. I tried with the old .config from Eclair, guessed the new options, and so far had no success.

It's as for the 2.1 kernel source, you just have to copy the source file from arch/arm/config
Thanks for the tip. Looks like there's a matching file in the configs/ directory. Compiling again and hoping for a better result ...
It seems that i finally got a working kernel build by myself. I do some tweaks, and i upload it here.

Unfortunately, from what I'm getting by poking around there is nothing in the froyo part of interest...it's just the kernel really.

right off the bat then thats an error. I am a huge believer that the random rebbots are due to the Tegra Cores not sleeping properly, I swear sometimes I think our phones only has one core active. I forgot what program I used but it showed CORE 0 and CORE 1. Core 0 had all the info about clock speed etc and CORE 1 was blank.. hmmm..
We need powertop from CM to see whats going on here anyways lets put the thread back on topic.
