* 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

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

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

69 120 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
h3. Status with LineageOS 16
70 1 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
71 121 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
For now the focus is on rebasing all the changes on top of LineageOS 16:
72
* nothing is usable so far, nothing has been tested yet on real devices
73 122 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
* it can build images but it most probably contains proprietary software as it has not been removed yet
74 121 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
* the commits and the manifests are constantly rebased

The images can then be flashed with heimdall. They are then in:

</pre>
119
120 138 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
h4. Install the images
121
122
<pre>
123
$ sudo heimdall flash --BOOT out/target/product/i9305/obj/PACKAGING/target_files_intermediates/lineage_i9305-target_files-eng.replicant/IMAGES/boot.img --USERDATA out_target_product_i9305/obj/PACKAGING/target_files_intermediates/lineage_i9305-target_files-eng.replicant/IMAGES/userdata.img --SYSTEM out_target_product_i9305/obj/PACKAGING/target_files_intermediates/lineage_i9305-target_files-eng.replicant/IMAGES/system.img 
124
</pre>
125
126
h4. Get adb
127
128
For some reasons, adb seem to require root on my laptop:
129
<pre>
130
$ sudo adb shell
131
* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
132
* daemon started successfully
133
i9305:/ #                                 
134
$ sudo adb kill-server
135
$ adb shell
136
* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
137
* daemon started successfully
138
error: no devices/emulators found
139
</pre>
140
So make sure to kill the adb-server and run it as root:
141
<pre>
142
$ adb kill-server
143
$ sudo adb shell
144
* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
145
* daemon started successfully
146
i9305:/ # 
147
</pre>
148
149 140 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
h2. Fixes to be done
150
151
* Make adb work as user by using the right USB IDs, and make userspace do the USB setup.
152
* Make the kernel not use hardcoded CMDLINE_FORCE
153
* Make the kernel not use hardcoded partitions if possible (though we use system as root)

Second month of full time equivalent work:
177 1 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
| * port  libsamsung-ril and libsamsung-ipc to Android 9
178
* 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-
179 125 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
libsamsung-ipc and samsung-ril were fixed to compile on Android 9.
180
The code was not yet tested at runtime.
181
It also probably still need to be adapted to trebble or the new RIL interfaces to be more substainable. |

| add support for Audio with the upstream kernel driver | 70h | Might be way faster, depending on what Android 9 uses |
188
| add partial (no modem) support for the -Galaxy SIII (i9300)- Galaxy SIII 4G (i9305) and factorize the code with i9305 | 14h | The work for the Galaxy SIII (i9300) has already been done by the unofficial LineageOS port.
189
It needs to be adapted to the upstream kernel and not to use proprietary libraries.

198
-We also created generic instructions but they tend to be harder to follow[1] than the device specific ones.-
199
-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.-
200
-The instructions will need to be able to be modified and compiled on an FSDG compliant distribution.- |

332
| hardware/samsung/lineagehw/hidl/livedisplay | | livedisplay is a feature similar to what redshift does on GNU/Linux | Not sure if it works with mainline |
333
