[Q] Ported rom, no root access - HTC Droid DNA

Alright, so I ported tripndroid to the DNA. Used cm's device tree, m7 kernel, and external/clang, and the muppets' vendor tree. Builds with no errors, flashes fine, runs great, but I got no root access. Superuser is installed, shows up under settings. Tried flashing busybox su package, koush's supersu 1.51 binary, and superuser. Nothing. Any ideas?

Isn't the latest supersu like 1.65? That's what I flashed on omnirom on my nexus 7 and I believe that's also the only one people were having success with.

Yeah, you're right. I just searched for the update and that's the first that came up. I'll try it out.

I just took a look at their android_device_htc_m7. Wow, they are really not making any attempt to keep their changes in line with what CM is doing. I wouldn't be surprised if you get more surprises down the road...
In the 4.3 builds, superuser support requires that a daemon be running as root. This service is configured in init.superuser.rc which must get included by one of the etc/init*.rc scripts in the ramdisk.
The CM builds do this in vendor/cm which conveniently makes it apply to all devices. Tripndroid seems instead to have added the include directly to ramdisk/init.rc in their device tree. I suspect making the coresponding change to the init.rc on the DLX tree will fix the problem.

Yup. You hit the nail right on the head. I finally found it. Thanks for looking into it!
If anyone wants to try it out I uploaded it here. If there's enough interest I might keep up with it.
Here's the M7 thread for the original build, if anyone wants to see the features. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2374404

(WIP) Ubuntu Touch

Ubuntu Touch Developer Preview for the Fascinate
// It took me a while to get it right, but here it is.
//Camera works, wireless internet works.
Haven't checked sound.
Don't know if phone or SMS works.
Need testers.
//How to install: DO A BACKUP FIRST!
Get the zip here Then get this. Go to recovery, do a wipe/factory reset.
//Flash the first zip, don't reboot yet. Go to Mounts and Storage, mount /data and then format it or it won't work.
//Then flash the second zip and reboot.
//After you reboot, don't do an apt update. It seems to bork things up for me. Using adb on your computer, type 'phablet-flash -d grouper -b' (to update to the latest).
Enjoy.
The above is the old way. Thanks to UnjustifiedDev the new build is below:
"Ubuntu touch
1. Download bootstrap http://goo.im/devs/Unjust/Fascinate/...scinatemtd.zip
2. Download preinstall http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-tou...blet-armhf.zip
yes it is 300+mb make sure you have space on your sdcard for it
3. Download layout fix http://goo.im/devs/Unjust/Fascinate/...layout_fix.zip
4. Reboot to recovery wipe data etc then flash bootstrap file first the cm-10.1 zip then reboot recovery
5. in ubuntu's purple recovery flash the saucy zip takes a while to flash make sure your battery is charged
6. Flash layout fix right after saucy zip completes then reboot
7. Note this a preview not a daily driver it is pretty cool but it lacks full features. Wifi works idk if sound works or data my phone is not in service
Source https://github.com/Ubuntu-Fascinate I did fix the layout no need for an extra zip next build "
You are the man, Unjust!!
Remember, it's just a developer preview at this point. Not much you can do with it right now.
Redwolves (meandmine)

Since the Fascinate is not my daily driver, I have no way to test 3G or SMS. Anyone want to give a try and post your results?
Thanks, Redwolves
I will keep this updated as much as I can. I'll also put detailed instructions an my github page for anyone who wants to compile their own.
I will put up the instructions on my github page tonight. I'll link to it here when I do.

I followed the porting guide. Commented out AriesParts and Samsung-something-or-other in a makefile in /devices. Patched /kernel/samsung/aries/fs/proc/array.c and /kernel/samsung/aries/arch/arm/configs. I did some other other patches to a makefile in /build. I played with it for about a month using just the phablet-armhf.zip. I had it booting for about 15 seconds after a while. I was going through logcats and trying to trace them back to any warnings thrown during compilation.
Then I found out it uses the grouper image. Voila, instant boot. I left the changes in the source, though.

Might have found a bug. Running the PAC nightly 9/1 and your original gapps debloated works fine. Just wiped everything and reflashed PAC 9/1 and your new gapps, and I can't install 1Weather. It says the device is not supported.
Just to confirm, i wiped everything again, reflashed the same PAC 9/1 and the old gapps and I can install 1Weather without any issues.
That is odd.
Thanks for the report.
I will look into it.

Resolution: Use google camera till fix is found.
I love this rom. I found it on rootzwiki and flashed. I've been waiting on an aosp rom with true multiwindow.(which is a little buggy). The only reason I'm not running it now is because hot spot doesn't work yet (gta v junky). Hopefully yall get that worked out soon

It's really nice to know that there is still somebody of the CM who decided to not to fall in the marketing trap..anyway, on my note 2 every custom rom i tried lags..in games, in ui, it's not as smooth as on my older optimus g wich i came from...theoretically OG and N2 should be almost the same as smoothness, so before i download it can you just make a nice video about this rom and the feautres it contains? Themes are supported? and battery is as stock or its like miui (drain like hell?)?
Thank you and don't give up with all of this
always nice to see a completely new rom
and ofcourse, seeing that there's devs who worked on cm previously, now bring their own rom means it could be something genuinly awesome
as soon as its actually up and downloadable (as a few seconds ago the rom wasn't there yet in the n7105 folder) i'll flash and try it ^^

Because it isn't ready yet. There is nothing much to show yet... You can consider this a testing phase. We are trying to iron out all device specific bugs, so once the real feature are ready, you wouldn't have to wait.

[RECOVERY] Patched TWRP recovery with adb working **UPDATE 10/4/14

As always, you are responsible for your phone, and its warranty
I built this recovery because adb was not working in the official. I have submitted all my changes and I am sure this will be fixed shortly but until then I will put this here. Bassically I compiled the stock ND2 kernel with some small modifications and rebuilt the recovery.img with that. everything else should be exactly the same but honestly I did not test everything so please feel free to let me know.
***UPDATE 10/4/14***
Created version thats branded as kltespr, did this so CM11 is now able to auto update without modifying the CM package. Also, ADB still works. If anybody knows how to reduce the size of this image, please let me know since it is a little larger than the stock TWRP. Also built an image from the 2.8.0.1 base, which seems to have the same kernel from my original build to enable ADB, all I added here was the mod to kltespr so CM can update.
Use dd to install these images:
Newest Link 10/4/2014, working ADB and branded as kltespr so CM11 auto updates work:
Working ADB and tagged kltespr so CM11 auto updates work
Same as above but built from version 2.8.0.1 of TWRP
---Below here are all klte with working ADB, but CM11 fails to auto update complaining of wrong device---

Is it meant to be a .tar or Zip file?
thx

Its a flashable zip. I never use winzip so I'm not sure if it should be able to be extracted with it. I think its technically a 7zip zip file in windows, linux I just run 'unzip $FILENAME'. The google drive link is probably the most reliable, maybe try that one if you haven't already. If there are still problems I can re-upload, just let me know.

**UPDATE**
I take that back I only uploaded the recovery.img, I flash it with dd after putting it in /sdcard/
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/miked63017-openrecovery-twrp.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
Or if you just want to see whats in it, you can extract it like a normal boot.img.
Will try to put up a zip and/or tar tomorrow, honestly I thought they would have had an official one with adb working by now.
Flashify
Just use Flashify to push .img to your phone.
Ok with patched twrp I get this after flashing rom
Goes to boot into android, and keeps throwing up "unfortunately, SAE has stopped"
I belive that to be binary problem, is this correct and how to solve

For those of you who use the GNL, you can get the newest lollipop version here:

I've confirmed that it works on our phone, the Verizon G3.

Does this need to be "bumped"

To my knowledge, only kernels and ROMs need to be bumped other than that you should be good.
I flashed it via TWRP, no problems at all. I will say I'm using the Jasmine ROM, so not stock. Not sure how much of a difference that would make, but I can confirm it works pretty well with no FCs.

Not having any luck, after flashing I just get a black screen when trying to use the Google launcher
I extracted the zip and manually moved the apks over and now it's working just fine
Really smooth launcher

I am having the same issue, I had to use multi window to open play store and install Nova, where did you move the APK files to?
So... Strange problem here. First off, the launcher is great. My problem however is disturbing, so every time I reboot I have to reinstall the velvet apk. Does anybody have any advice on how to solve this? Thanks
