7 258 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
The development is moving toward Android 10. 
8
9
The basic features working on Replicant 9 have also been confirmed to work on Replicant 10, but not everything has been tested yet on either version.
10
11
At this point, the Replicant 9 source code is kept to do regression tracking, and the development has moved to Replicant 10.

* 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 dirty, so be sure to backup your local changes.
61
* 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:
62
<pre>
63
$ rm -rf .repo/manifests/ # This enables me to force push and rebase the manifest repository as well
64
$ repo init -u https://git.replicant.us/replicant-9/manifest.git -b replicant-10-wip
65
$ repo sync --force-sync
66
</pre>
67
* 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: 
68
<pre>
69
$ repo sync --force-sync

h4. Get adb
77
78
As the device IDs are the ones given by the Linux kernel, they are not in the adb udev rules, so for now it requires to run adb as root:
79
<pre>
80
$ sudo adb shell
81
* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
82
* daemon started successfully
83
i9305:/ #

$ sudo adb kill-server

$ adb shell
86
* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
87
* daemon started successfully
88
error: no devices/emulators found
89
</pre>
90
So make sure to kill the adb-server and run it as root:
91

h4. Get adb
181
182 147 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
As the device IDs are the ones given by the Linux kernel, they are not in the adb udev rules, so for now it requires to run adb as root:
183 138 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
<pre>
184 1 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
$ sudo adb shell
185
* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
186
* daemon started successfully
187
i9305:/ #                                 
188
$ sudo adb kill-server
189
$ adb shell
190
* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
191
* daemon started successfully
192
error: no devices/emulators found
193
</pre>
194
So make sure to kill the adb-server and run it as root:
195
<pre>
196
$ adb kill-server
197
$ sudo adb shell
198
* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
199
* daemon started successfully
200
i9305:/ # 
201
</pre>
202
203
h4. Booting
204
205
At some point during boot, the device goes into suspend, so you will need to press some buttons like the power or volume button to make the boot continue until the graphical interface.
206
207
You can also follow the boot progress with adb:
208
<pre>
209
adb logcat
210
adb logcat -b main
211
</pre>
212
213
Note that the device can go into suspend at any time, so adb might be interrupted. That looks like that:
214
First you get a shell
215
<pre>
216
$ sudo adb shell
217
i9305:/ #
218
</pre>
219
220
Then the connection is interrupted:
221
<pre>
222
$ adb shell
223
i9305:/ # [randomdev@fullyfreelaptop ]$                                                                                                     
224
</pre>
225
226
The effect with adb logcat is similar.
227
228
h3. cleanups to be done
229
230
* Make adb work as user by using the right USB IDs, and make userspace do the USB setup.
231
* -Make the kernel not use hardcoded CMDLINE_FORCE- Not possible unless the bootloader is changed or Linux is very heavily patched.
232
* Make the kernel not use hardcoded partitions if possible (though we use system as root)
233
* Make a clean Gatekeeper HAL module implementation instead of using the same hack than goldfish
234
* look at "init.rc":https://android.googlesource.com/platform/system/core/+/master/init/README.md documentation to see if init.rc can be overriden clearly with the override statement to see if it's possible to keep the serial console patch for -eng
235
236
h3. Using SwiftShader instead of Mesa3D llvmpipe for software rendering
237
238
To use SwifShader you need a kernel that supports UDIV/SDIV emulation, you can checkout the branch GNUtoo/udiv-emulation for kernel/replicant/linux. After doing that that run the following commands to use SwiftShader:
239
240
<pre>
241
$ adb remount
242
$ adb shell
243
i9305:/ # rm vendor/lib/egl/libGLES_mesa.so # or move it somewhere safe meanwhile you test SwiftShader
244
i9305:/ # nano system/build.prop # set ro.hardware.hwcomposer=ranchu and ro.hardware.gralloc=default
245
$ adb reboot
246
</pre>

250
h3. Status with AOSP 9
251
252
* The Galaxy SIII 4G (i9305) boots (with graphics hacks) under AOSP9, without having to import nonfree libraries:
253
** The device boots until the lock screen
254
** The graphics work but are really slow as they have not been optimized
255
** Sometime the display content is corrupted
256
** The touchscreen works
257
* 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
271
272
First get the source code:
273
<pre>
274

275

h4. For Trisquel 8
278
279
<pre>
280

281
</pre>
282
283
h4. Building it
284
285
Once this is done, see the device/putti/i9305/README.md for the build instructions.
286
287
h4. Trisquel 8 LXC
288
289
If you use Parabola, you may be interested in running Trisquel 8 in LXC.
290
291
To do that first debootstrap a Trisquel 8 rootfs. 
292
293
Parabola's debootstrap does support Trisquel 8 and its manual has an example on how to do that:
294
<pre>
295
$ man debootstrap
296
[...]
297
# debootstrap flidas flidas-root http://archive.trisquel.info/trisquel
298
</pre>
299
300
Then you can use virt-manager to setup the LXC instance.
301
302
The advantages of this solution are that:
303
* The LXC guest and host shares their resources (CPU, RAM) with almost no penalty
304
* Trisquel 8 is not a rolling release distribution
305
306
The disadvantage of this solution are that:
307
* you need to configure again the Trisquel 8 LXC instance (vimrc, sshd_config, etc)
308
* It's more complicated to setup
309
* The Android build system output a warning message about not being able to use namespaces which may become mandatory in newer Android versions

329 228 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
*libsamsung-ril:* 
330
* Ported to Replicant 9 using a wrapper for the API >=12 in libsamsung-ril source code that needs to be removed
331
* Tested under Replicant 9 without up to date libsamsung-ipc (no modem init)
332
* Tested and validated under Replicant 6 (doesn't break telephony)
333
334
h3. Modem status TODO
335
336 227 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
* Implement the missing part to shut down the modem, close the interfaces and such, in order to need to reboot after each test.
337
* Continue to clean up the libsamsung-ipc and libsamsung-ril patches, test the patches in Replicant 6 when applicable, and merge them in the upstream repositories.
338
* Convert the firmware loading driver to the upstream API and then adapt libsamsung-ipc for that. This should also benefit other devices like the Galaxy SIII 4G, and the Galaxy Note II 4G which probably don't need much more to get their modem supported by upstream Linux.
339
* Cleanup and convert the rest of the drivers to look like the ones for the Nokia N900 and adapt the userspace in libsamsung-ipc, and merge libsamsung-ipc support for that once the kernel API is stable.
340
* Test the code under Replicant 9 when the graphics status will enable to have decent enough speed to do some testing through human interaction.

| -port the sensors libraries and other device specific libraries-

Look which sensor libraries can be used | 70h | Already done by the unofficial LineageOS port of the Galaxy SIII (i9300), needs testing |
375 255 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
| add support for Audio with the upstream kernel driver | 70h | Might be way faster, depending on what Android 9 uses

| -add partial (no modem) support for the Galaxy SIII 4G (i9305) and- factorize the code with i9300 | 14h | * The source code on which the work was based changed from AOSP to an unofficial LineageOS port to a port of i9305 support for AOSP by Joonas to the official LineageOS so it's now supported by default
378
* The work to factorize the code between the i9300 and i9305 still need to be done |

| -create new- update the install and upgrade instructions | -35h- | -Our current install instructions don't scale as we have one copy for each device.-
387
-We also created generic instructions but they tend to be harder to follow[1] than the device specific ones.-
388
-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.-
389 214 Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli
-The instructions will need to be able to be modified and compiled on an FSDG compliant distribution.-
390
Mostly done: 
391
* The installation instructions are now generic enough. 
392
* Some long standing TODO were also done along the way like adding backup instructions for the EFS.
393
* The current instructions are still for Replicant 6.0 and will need to be updated for Replicant 9.0 |

* It might be interesting to contact the people doing ports once we have something working well enough.
440
* It is also interesting to look at other attempts to understand if a given device is powerful enough to run Android 9 and what configuration was used to achieve it.
