* 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

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
69 120 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

100 1 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
101 118 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
Follow the "i9300 manifest instructions:":https://github.com/CustomRoms/android_local_manifests_i9300
102 104 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
<pre>
103 118 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
$ subject='/C=US/ST=California/L=Mountain View/O=Android/OU=Android/CN=Android/emailAddress=android@android.com'
104
$ mkdir .android-certs
105
$ for x in releasekey platform shared media testkey; do \
106
  ./development/tools/make_key .android-certs/$x "$subject"; \
107
  done
108
$ parallel_tasks=$(echo "$(grep 'processor' /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l ) + 1" | bc)
109 104 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli

119
h4. Getting lastest changes
120
121
* The repositories are being constantly modified with git push --force as we are trying things out, and don't want to make the commits history look too much dirty, so be sure to backup your local changes.
122
* Sometimes the manifest repository is also modified with git push --force. In that case the following commands will loose all the work you did locally but will make the repository consistent with upstream repositories again:
123
<pre>
124
$ rm -rf .repo/manifests/ # This enables me to force push and rebase the manifest repository as well
125
$ repo init -u https://git.replicant.us/GNUtoo/manifest.git -b GNUtoo/lineage-16.0-base
126
$ repo sync --force-sync
127
</pre>
128
* The following command might also be necessary to make the state consistent with upstream repositories again, when the manifest history wasn't rewritten, but it will also loose all the work you did locally: 
129
<pre>
130
$ repo sync --force-sync
131 136 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
</pre>
132
133 138 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
h4. Install the images
134
135
<pre>
136
$ 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 
137
</pre>
138
139
h4. Get adb
140
141
For some reasons, adb seem to require root on my laptop:
142
<pre>
143
$ sudo adb shell
144
* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
145
* daemon started successfully
146
i9305:/ #                                 
147
$ sudo adb kill-server
148
$ adb shell
149
* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
150
* daemon started successfully
151
error: no devices/emulators found
152
</pre>
153
So make sure to kill the adb-server and run it as root:
154
<pre>
155
$ adb kill-server
156
$ sudo adb shell
157
* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
158
* daemon started successfully
159
i9305:/ # 
160
</pre>
161
162 141 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
h3. Fixes that needs to be done
163 140 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
164
* Make adb work as user by using the right USB IDs, and make userspace do the USB setup.
165
* Make the kernel not use hardcoded CMDLINE_FORCE
166
* Make the kernel not use hardcoded partitions if possible (though we use system as root)
167 145 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
* Make a clean Gatekeeper HAL module implementation instead of using the same hack than goldfish

Second month of full time equivalent work:
194 1 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
| * port  libsamsung-ril and libsamsung-ipc to Android 9
195
* 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-
196 125 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
libsamsung-ipc and samsung-ril were fixed to compile on Android 9.
197
The code was not yet tested at runtime.
198
It also probably still need to be adapted to trebble or the new RIL interfaces to be more substainable. |

204
| add support for Audio with the upstream kernel driver | 70h | Might be way faster, depending on what Android 9 uses |
205
| 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.
206
It needs to be adapted to the upstream kernel and not to use proprietary libraries.
207
It also needs to be adapted to the Galaxy SIII 4G (i9305) |

215
-We also created generic instructions but they tend to be harder to follow[1] than the device specific ones.-
216
-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.-
217
-The instructions will need to be able to be modified and compiled on an FSDG compliant distribution.- |

lineage-16.0 branch | hardware/samsung/macloader | | Loads the MAC Address of the WiFi network interface | Might be useful |
347
| hardware/samsung/wifiloader | | Loads the wifi kernel module (like modprobe) and setup firmware filesystems permissions | May be useful |
348
| hardware/samsung/audio | | seems to contains ril related stuff as well | Look if the ril stuff is required, go for standard audio |
349
| hardware/samsung/lineagehw/hidl/livedisplay | | livedisplay is a feature similar to what redshift does on GNU/Linux | Not sure if it works with mainline |
350
| hardware/samsung/exynos/multimedia/utils/ | seem meant for audio/video decoding offload | assembly obtimized color conversion and resize code | check assembly code license, not sure if useful |
351
| all other directories in hardware/samsung/exynos/ | nonfree firmwares, nonfree software?, smdk kernel? | audio/video decoding offload | Avoid using that |
352
| hardware/samsung/exynos3 |/2. nonfree firmwares?, nonfree software?, smdk kernel? |/2. some light libraries, display stuff (gralloc, etc), 2D acceleration (FIMG), camera (FIMC), 3D acceleration, etc |/2. Avoid using that for now |
