7 | h3. Status with AOSP 9 |
||
8 | |||
9 | 98 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | * The Galaxy SIII 4G (i9305) boots (with graphics hacks) under AOSP9, without having to import nonfree libraries: |
10 | 99 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | ** The device boots until the lock screen |
11 | 98 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | ** The graphics work but are really slow as they have not been optimized |
12 | 49 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | ** Sometime the display content is corrupted |
13 | 1 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | ** The touchscreen works |
14 | 100 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | * The kernel used is based on Linux 5.0-rc6 and has ~150 Android specific patches on top and some patches for the Galaxy SIII 4G (i9305) on top |

26 | 1 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | |
27 | 100 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | h4. Source code |
28 | 88 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | |
29 | 46 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | First get the source code: |
30 | 1 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | <pre> |
31 | 46 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | $ repo init -u git://git.putti.eu/aosp/manifest_i9305.git -b android-9.0.0 |
32 | 1 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | </pre> |
33 | 88 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | |
34 | 100 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | h4. For Trisquel8 |
35 | 45 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | <pre> |
36 | 1 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential zip curl zlib1g-dev gcc-multilib g++-multilib libc6-dev-i386 lib32ncurses5-dev x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev lib32z-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libxml2-utils xsltproc unzip bc python-mako |
37 | </pre> |
||
38 | |||
39 | 100 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | h4. Building it |
40 | 88 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | |
41 | Once this is done, see the device/putti/i9305/README.md for the build instructions. |
||
42 | |||
43 | 100 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | h4. Trisquel 8 LXC |
44 | 88 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | |
45 | If you use Parabola, you may be interested in running Trisquel 8 in LXC. |
||
46 | |||
47 | To do that first debootstrap a Trisquel 8 rootfs. |
||
48 | |||
49 | Parabola's debootstrap does support Trisquel 8 and its manual has an example on how to do that: |
||
50 | <pre> |
||
51 | $ man debootstrap |
||
52 | [...] |
||
53 | # debootstrap flidas flidas-root http://archive.trisquel.info/trisquel |
||
54 | </pre> |
||
55 | |||
56 | Then you can use virt-manager to setup the LXC instance. |
||
57 | |||
58 | 89 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | The advantages of this solution are that: |
59 | 88 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | * The LXC guest and host shares their resources (CPU, RAM) with almost no penalty |
60 | * Trisquel 8 is not a rolling release distribution |
||
61 | |||
62 | The disadvantage of this solution are that: |
||
63 | * you need to configure again the Trisquel 8 LXC instance (vimrc, sshd_config, etc) |
||
64 | 1 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | * It's more complicated to setup |
65 | 90 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | * The Android build system output a warning message about not being able to use namespaces which may become mandatory in newer Android versions |
66 | 48 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | |
67 | 102 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | h2. LineageOS 16 |
68 | |||
69 | h3. Building LineageOS 16 version |
||
70 | |||
71 | 105 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | h4. Status with LineageOS 16 |
72 | |||
73 | The work hasn't started yet, to save time the documentation is done at the same moment as the work. |

107 | |||
108 | 51 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | |_. Task |_. Time estimation |_. Comments | |
109 | 74 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | | -boot a device under AOSP9- | DONE | Only boots with graphics, not much more | |
110 | 81 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | | -build it under a "FSDG compliant distribution":https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.html like Trisquel8- | -7h- DONE | -WIP for AOSP, It's difficult to do precise time estimations as it could work out of the box or require one full time month of work depending on how much issues are encountered- |
111 | Builds under Trisquel8| |
||
112 | 57 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | | * port the changes from AOSP9 to LineageOS 16 |
113 | * cleanup the code |
||
114 | 59 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | * build the kernel from the Android build system |
115 | * make sure it builds with an FSDG compliant distribution |
||
116 | 73 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | * document the build procedure | 21h | | |

||
123 | 1 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | |_. Total |_. 147h | ~1 month | |
124 | 93 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | |
125 | 1 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | Second month of full time equivalent work: |
126 | 95 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | | * port libsamsung-ril and libsamsung-ipc to Android 9 |
127 | * Make the modem driver and libsamsung-ipc work together | 157h | libsamsung-ipc should be trivial, libsamsung-ril probably needs to be heavily adapted to Trebble or the new RIL interfaces | |
||
128 | 75 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | |_. Total |_. 157h | ~1 month | |

130 | 87 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | Third month of full time equivalent work: |

132 | 75 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | | port the sensors libraries and other device specific libraries | 70h | | |
133 | 57 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | | add support for Audio | 70h | Might be way faster, depending on what Android 9 uses | |

141 | 74 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | | create new install and upgrade instructions | 35h | Our current install instructions don't scale as we have one copy for each device. |
142 | 71 | Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli | We also created generic instructions but they tend to be harder to follow[1] than the device specific ones. |
143 | This will be made in a modular format (for instance in LaTeX) that enables to generate per device install instructions without requiring to have multiples copy of the same text. The instructions will need to be able to be modified and compiled on an FSDG compliant distribution. | |
