Lenovo YB1-X90F/L kernel source released - Lenovo Yoga Book Guides, News, & Discussion

I don't know if it has been posted before or if anyone is aware, but apparently the kernel source for the Lenovo Yoga Book (X5-Z8550) is available here: https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/dk/en/products/TABLETS/YOGA-SERIES/YOGA-BOOK/downloads/DS118515
If the site loads the Windows drivers site, simple under 'Operating Systems' select 'Android' and the kernel source code .zip is available for download (Open Source Code - Lenovo YB1-X90F/L).

Thanks for the heads up. It'll be interesting to see if any devs on here can make use of this.

It's there since 05 Sep 2016... what a deep dive discovery...
And pretty sure Marshmallow...

[Q] Customizing GUI in simulator?

Hi
Need to know something rudimentary.
Is it possible to design/modify the look and feel of the Firefox OS from the device simulator? Not the apps, but the entire Firefox OS GUI.
Thanks.

Hi arjunm009,
FirefoxOS development name is b2g (boot2gecko) there is a beautiful diagram on Mozilla's pages advising how the layers work, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox_OS/Platform/Architecture

Gonk is the Hardware Abstraction Layer for the drivers
Gecko is the Rendering Engine
Gaia is the GUI, and the part you are interested in.
It is possible to modify Gaia, and Mozilla have a very detailed guide located just here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox_OS/Developing_Gaia
You can also grab the B2G source code and only pull down Gaia this would then let you modify, or even fix and pass back upstream to Mozilla.
You would then need a way to get your changes into the emulator, you can do this on a live device by entering the Gaia directory and typing make gaia, and then reset gaia.
However, on the emulator Mozilla offer the following detailed tutorial on how to see your gui changes in realtime on the emulator running on Firefox:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox_OS/Developing_Gaia/Making_Gaia_code_changes
thanks a lot. this would get me started.

help preparing kernel environment

Such foremost reason for this post is to ask for help and would like to compile my own kernel from my xperia M2 D2306 but I find a little inconvenience is only to find a file identification from my xperia I explain what this is.
This is the tutorial I'm following:
[ULTIMATE GUIDE] [Noob Friendly] Compile your own kernel from source android
As well I follow this tutorial sony:
How to rebuild kernels for flagship Xperia devices [tutorial]
And drop tools that tell me there is a problem but tell me this:
Code:
Replace Device Name with the configuration file found at:
Source / arch / arm / configs
It's written in This Way something_DeviceCodename_user_defconfig
and I went to the specified path but can not find any file of this type

information from the filename of the Xperia M2:
Code:

aosp_yukon_eagle_defconfig
How could set the name of my device before entering the kernel configuration script
would be helpful thanks
You are barking at the wrong tree.
The reason there is no defconfig for M2 (yukon) is that they have not uploaded the defconfig in their Github repo.
From this site it is clear that
http://xperiafirmware.com/8-firmware/53-sony-xperia-m2-d2303/
M2's firmware is 18.x.x.x
If you check the branches on Github ,there is no branch with 18.x.x.x
Moral
That source won't work.
Instead use kernel source from the Open source center.
http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/opensource/
This one should work fine for all the M2 devices .

[Request/Poll] KDE Plasma-Mobile ROM

With this thread, I like to give my (and maybe your) request and wish
for KDE plasma-mobile ROM, for our device!
I'm making this poll, to make visible if there's interest in this ROM. Means,
maybe find a willing dev to code it.
Note: This ROM is still new for phones, but KDE is in strong
development
About:
For those who tried Linux's desktop enviroment KDE,
they will probably know how awesome KDE is.
When I first read about it, I was truly fascinated (https://www.xda-developers.com/plasma-mobile-is-a-fully-open-source-smartphone-os-from-kde-e-v/)
You may check out their site, if you're curious: https://plasma-mobile.org/

- Would love to use it, KDE is awesome -
PS: I am no dev, and I know this will probably first be possible, when kernel sources are released next month.

Adding charger over OTG to a kernel

Hi,
As the title suggests, I am looking to add the ability to charge my device at the same time as using USB OTG. The device in question is a Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 7.0 LTE (SM-T235).
Let me start by saying this is my first step into android development, so I'm currently just Googling everything and attempting to follow some guides I found, but I'm still unable to work out which files I need to edit before compiling.
I have downloaded the latest kernel sources from the Samsung development website, extracted them and downloaded toolchain, as per THIS guide.
I have then been attempting to copy the process used HERE to enable the feature, but as that applied to the OPO, I assume the process is slightly different for the Galaxy Tab. I've searched for all the files that contain OTG and there's a lot of them, I can't work out what I need to edit. See screenshot:

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
(For some reason I have tried 3 different image hosts and it isn't showing up so screenshot has been attached as well.
I have uploaded the contents of the drivers/usb folder from the kernel sources at the following like:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B9o8Fezf-53KY0dKUlhZc2VmNGc
If anyone has the time and knowledge to have a look at this and help me out, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
I would like to use my Tab 4 as usb host too. Does OTG without charging work with your SM-T235, @crumble6 ? If yes, maybe this supply would work.

LM-V600AM update outside of US

My LG V60 won't update to Android 11, because I'm outside of US. Please send me offline update file. Thanks
There is unfortunately no solution except plugging an activated sim card in the phone.

Is it helpful?
