Feb 22 08:39:57 <ubptgbot> <Sin> Hey guys, I hope you are all fine! … I got Halium to run in SSH mode in a LeEco Le2 I had running around but I'm just stuck now. … I read on the guide that some devices (like the x2, or LeEco LeMax2) had some special configurations related to a firmware partition and I am pretty sure I fall in the same category because lxc@android autocrashes
Feb 22 08:39:57 <ubptgbot> . … Anybody familiar with this?

Feb 22 11:11:36 <ubptgbot> <konradybcio> @UniversalSuperBox what's the magic behind docs.halium.org auto deploying ktself
Feb 22 11:11:45 <ubptgbot> <konradybcio> [Edit] @UniversalSuperBox what's the magic behind docs.halium.org auto deploying itself
Feb 22 12:09:07 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> Hello guys. I've been using Halium (at least some versions) on my OP3 for Ubuntu Touch and I am the lucky owner of a Nexus 5 (Hammerhead) as well. I'd like to play around a bit more with "regular" halium builds for those devices. … I have spent some time reading and re-reading the documentation and now have few questions: … - rootfs.img
Feb 22 12:09:08 <ubptgbot>  ==> Are there any distro's out there proposing their own rootfs.img? I did quickly look for Manjaro ARM, no luck. Mobian and PostmarketOS... neither. Plasma Mobile seems to have one. Etc... Is there a list of what's available? … - If I understood well, a working Halium port + the distro rootfs is enough ight?
Feb 22 12:09:10 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> Thanks
Feb 22 12:10:04 <ubptgbot> <Herrie1982> @Anghirrim [Hello guys. I've been using Halium (at least some versions) on my OP3 for Ubuntu …], We got a LuneOS image using Halium 5.1 for Hammerhead
Feb 22 12:10:07 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> I am familiar with the process of porting Android roms to my phones. I am not a dev, but at least I can build based on existing sources and somewhat debug the building process
Feb 22 12:10:29 <ubptgbot> <Herrie1982> Our images are device specific, so for Hammerhead we have a ZIP that you can flash with sideload/twrp
Feb 22 12:11:19 <ubptgbot> <Herrie1982> Basically we use only the minimal Android system.img created by Halium, boot image & kernel are built in the Yocto toolchain with GCC 10.2 at this point in time.
Feb 22 12:11:23 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> @Herrie1982 [Our images are device specific, so for Hammerhead we have a ZIP that you can fla …], Thanks for answering. We're speaking about this LuneOS? … https://webos-ports.org/wiki/Main_Page
Feb 22 12:11:32 <ubptgbot> <Herrie1982> Yes :)
Feb 22 12:12:04 <ubptgbot> <Herrie1982> GSI is on the roadmap for once we have Android 9 migration sorted out, but that will be down the line. Hammerhead image is ready if you want to play with it.
Feb 22 12:12:07 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> @Herrie1982 [Basically we use only the minimal Android system.img created by Halium, boot ima …], OK, and what I did not get is that if at some point, the rootfs.img is mixed with the system.img?
Feb 22 12:12:58 <ubptgbot> <Herrie1982> Well rootfs.img is Halium image itself (minimal Ubuntu from what I understood). system.img = Android which we boot inside a LXC container
Feb 22 12:13:02 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> @Herrie1982 [GSI is on the roadmap for once we have Android 9 migration sorted out, but that …], This will require treblizing the Hammerhead right?
Feb 22 12:13:22 <ubptgbot> <konradybcio> no
Feb 22 12:13:24 <ubptgbot> <Herrie1982> Well for Hammerhead we might actually go mainline kernel
Feb 22 12:13:41 <ubptgbot> <Herrie1982> Some initial work for that was done and will be revisited shortly within LuneOS project
Feb 22 12:13:47 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> @Herrie1982 [Well rootfs.img is Halium image itself (minimal Ubuntu from what I understood). …], Well... and in which partition is flashed the rootfs.img exactly?
Feb 22 12:13:57 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> @konradybcio [no], No to the treblizing question?
Feb 22 12:14:03 <ubptgbot> <konradybcio> @Herrie1982 [Well for Hammerhead we might actually go mainline kernel], we need gpu people to work on freedreno, it's not great atm :/
Feb 22 12:14:06 <ubptgbot> <konradybcio> @Anghirrim [No to the treblizing question?], correct
Feb 22 12:14:18 <ubptgbot> <konradybcio> suzu runs 9.0 without treble afaik @fredldotme
Feb 22 12:14:26 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> HOw would a GSI image work without a vendor partition?
Feb 22 12:14:38 <ubptgbot> <konradybcio> you don't need to use the gsi pretty sure
Feb 22 12:14:42 <ubptgbot> <konradybcio> there are device-specific ports too
Feb 22 12:15:38 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> Oh... my understanding was that the rootsf was "kind of" GSI image, that could work along with the Halium device specific boot and system.img
Feb 22 12:15:39 <ubptgbot> <Herrie1982> Yes we did some for Xiaomi devices recently (Tissot & Rosy for example, Mido is work in progress for Halium 9)
Feb 22 12:16:02 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> [Edit] Oh... my understanding was that the rootsf was "kind of" or similar to GSI images, that could work along with the Halium device specific boot and system.img
Feb 22 12:16:55 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> @Herrie1982 [Well rootfs.img is Halium image itself (minimal Ubuntu from what I understood). …], Plasma Mobile has a CAF rootfs.img available. That's why I am lost with my questions
Feb 22 12:17:07 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> Not clear on the differnece between system.img and rootfs.img
Feb 22 12:17:34 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> [Edit] Not clear on the difference between system.img and rootfs.img
Feb 22 12:17:56 <ubptgbot> <Herrie1982> system.img = mimimal Android bits (based on LineageOS usually), rootfs.img = actual OS you're trying to run in this case
Feb 22 12:18:09 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> @Herrie1982 [system.img = mimimal Android bits (based on LineageOS usually), rootfs.img = act …], Clear
Feb 22 12:18:31 <ubptgbot> <Herrie1982> Which uses Android inside LXC container in most of the cases
Feb 22 12:18:53 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> So rootfs.img should be flashed on the system partition, and will mount the system.img that is stored "somewhere"
Feb 22 12:18:57 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> Right?
Feb 22 12:19:26 <ubptgbot> <Herrie1982> @Anghirrim [So rootfs.img should be flashed on the system partition, and will mount the syst …], OS dependant really. In LuneOS we put it in userdata
Feb 22 12:22:36 <ubptgbot> <Herrie1982> So we flash the boot partition with our boot image (kernel+ramdisk, so fastboot image in most cases) where all the magic of mounting various bits happens.
Feb 22 12:25:17 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> @Herrie1982 [So we flash the boot partition with our boot image (kernel+ramdisk, so fastboot …], Yep, reading the wiki 😉
Feb 22 12:26:15 <ubptgbot> <Singleton> About this, I think that it could help with the issue I was discussing earlier if I could have a non read-only system partition
Feb 22 12:26:48 <ubptgbot> <Singleton> is there any way to write into the system+rootfs while it's booted?
Feb 22 12:26:59 <ubptgbot> <Singleton> I just wanna try to symlink some stuff left and right
Feb 22 12:28:27 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> @Herrie1982 SIde question. How are apps updated or made available in LuneOS? And is LuneOS mature or under active development? Or porting theexisting legacy images is the focus or now? … THanks
Feb 22 12:28:55 <Tofe> @Singleton: yes, it's just a simple file to put in the root of the rootfs, iirc
Feb 22 12:29:13 <ubptgbot> <Herrie1982> @Anghirrim [@Herrie1982 SIde question. How are apps updated or made available in LuneOS? And …], We're a small team, so we do what we can. There are legacy apps that run, there are webapps that can run (browser is new Chromium really), so it can do a lot.
Feb 22 12:29:27 <ubptgbot> <Herrie1982> For the rest Qt apps can run (either directly or with minor changes)
Feb 22 12:30:09 <Tofe> @Singleton: see https://github.com/Halium/initramfs-tools-halium/blob/halium/scripts/halium#L511
Feb 22 12:30:58 <ubptgbot> <Singleton> Thanks Tofe, I'll look into this and get back to you guys
Feb 22 12:33:34 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> @Herrie1982 [For the rest Qt apps can run (either directly or with minor changes)], Ok, there are LuneOS specific repos available for those Qt apps?
Feb 22 12:33:49 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> @Herrie1982 [We're a small team, so we do what we can. There are legacy apps that run, there …], Yep, no judging, just curious. 😉
Feb 22 12:35:07 <ubptgbot> <Herrie1982> @Anghirrim [Ok, there are LuneOS specific repos available for those Qt apps?], No specific repos, but we got Fingerterm, Messwerk and a few others to run without many big changes.
Feb 22 12:36:11 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> AFH doesn't have available mirrors for now to dl the LOS build
Feb 22 12:36:15 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> I'll wait a bit :)
Feb 22 12:36:27 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> [Edit] AFH doesn't have available mirrors for now to dl the CM build
Feb 22 12:47:15 <Tofe> For hammerhead, just download the stock 5.1 image, that's fine
Feb 22 12:47:39 <Tofe> (if that's what you're talking about)
Feb 22 12:51:59 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> @Tofe [For hammerhead, just download the stock 5.1 image, that's fine], Yes, I also went on Google's factory images website. But found another link for the same CM build on SailfishOS wiki
Feb 22 12:52:27 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> But I prefer the official rom, more trustable than mirrored old buildsd
Feb 22 12:53:17 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> @Tofe [For hammerhead, just download the stock 5.1 image, that's fine], 5.1 or 5.1.1 does not matter?
Feb 22 12:54:22 <Tofe> @Anghirrim: not really; what matters is that the partitions for modem,gps,wifi etc have the right versions of the firmwares, and 5.1.* should work both here
Feb 22 12:55:04 <ubptgbot> <Anghirrim> @Tofe [@Anghirrim: not really; what matters is that the partitions for modem,gps,wifi e …], That's what I guessed, thanks
Feb 22 13:22:44 <ubptgbot> <UniversalSuperBox> @konradybcio [@UniversalSuperBox what's the magic behind docs.halium.org auto deploying itself], ReadTheDocs
Feb 22 13:25:03 <ubptgbot> <Fuseteam> that's the actual name yes
Feb 22 13:32:49 <ubptgbot> <konradybcio> @UniversalSuperBox [ReadTheDocs], thx
Feb 22 16:39:07 <ubptgbot>  was added by: 
Feb 22 20:22:58 <ubptgbot> <Singleton> I got nearly everything running on my LeEco Le2 except sound (which I am pretty sure is a driver on another board) and Wifi. Man was I happy when the device booted. … If anyone would be nice enough just to check the logs (especially for Wifi), I'll be very, very thankful: https://pastebin.com/JFEGrAiC
Feb 22 20:29:17 <nergzd723> Oh, nice
Feb 22 20:29:26 <nergzd723> Snapdragon 652, right?
Feb 22 20:30:31 <nergzd723> Did you try the WiFi tips in Debug Halium article?
Feb 22 20:35:28 <ubptgbot> <Singleton> Yeah it's a 652
Feb 22 20:35:32 <ubptgbot> <Singleton> I tried the wifi tips
Feb 22 20:36:01 <ubptgbot> <Singleton> I'm pretty sure the wifi binary it wants to load is misplaced but I still haven't found it
Feb 22 20:36:53 <ubptgbot> <Singleton> s2 follows x2 and they are both equally painful to work with
Feb 22 20:41:02 <ubptgbot> <Singleton> also I am suspecting the reason those tips fail is because there is no module at all in the /system/lib/modules folder
Feb 23 01:19:02 <ubptgbot> <hassanh92> @Singleton [I'm pretty sure the wifi binary it wants to load is misplaced but I still haven' …], Yep, that's right. Can you send the device tree?
