Add tblte project

[micky387]

This is project for Samsung Galaxy Note Edge for international ,tmo and other variant

[M1cha]

can you quickly confirm if this is fully working and that you tested everything?(multiple variants, bootloaders, sdcard support, etc).

Also, I'll have to rebase the tree and push it manually since you based on and pushed into xiaomi/aries.

[micky387]

Not tested on all variant but working on international (tblte ,tbltexx ,tbltedt) tbltetmo and other i think yes,it's the same base (i'm the maintainers of Resurrection Remix rom for note edge) .

If you want,i can push again in the right place ??
just close this and add it again...
best regards

[M1cha]

you can't PR new branches but it's ok and I can do it myself since I have your code now.
but first explicitly answer these questions please:

• does the sdcard work in UEFI ?(it shouldn't since apq8084 doesn't has support for it yet)
• do new rom's (6.x, especially the stock rom's) of the device use DT too or do they use appended fdt?
• did you test the app, and did you successfully multiboot some ROM's?

I have to ask questions, because some people try to make devices official which aren't 100% stable and working.

[micky387]

ok

1/No sdcard in UEFI
2/ yes always dt.img
3 i have always the same issue when i try to run start_local_otaserver PORT

start_local_otaserver PORT

@M1cha This device tree is the same as the trlte device tree. Would it not be easier to just add tblte variants to the OTA server, pointing at the trlte build? AFAIK the Note Edge is just the Note 4 with a curved display on one side. Same underlying device.

I have a user testing my Note 4 build on a Note Edge right now...

[abraha2d]

And @micky387, you're not supposed to run start_local_otaserver PORT literally. Substitute a 4-5 digit number (less than 65535) for PORT (e.g. start_local_otaserver 3343) 😄

[micky387]

1/ no,tblte have different dt.img.
The size of tblte are 2560x1600 and note 4 2560x1440 failing that it's the same phone (exceted 2/3 things)

2/ oh,ok i'm tired me....

[M1cha]

@abraha2d which means I merged your device without asking you if the SD works :D bad me :P

[abraha2d]

@M1cha but you said it's ok if the sd doesn't work... because there's no sd support for apq8084...

[M1cha]

@abraha2d maybe we misunderstood each other. adding sd support is usually easy. I'll look at it when I have time but it's like a 5min patch for me.

[abraha2d]

@micky387 oh, ok. i didn't notice the different dt.img... sorry...
Let me check it, to see the differences...

[micky387]

@abraha2d
I see already some user of note edge use your personal work .
If it's working,i dont need to work for tblte variant,you're release are fine ??

[abraha2d]

Just saw the success... Ya, note 4 builds seem to be working on the note edge, even with the different dt.img... 🤷‍♂️

[micky387]

ok so i can close this project.

Best regards

[micky387]

Hello.
I reopen this project.
I have tested @abraha2d 's build and it's working great but break all sensors hubs . Rotation sensors and auto brightness will break.
On my build,it's working great. So dt.img are really different

Regards and all credits to @abraha2d for initial build

[abraha2d]

Ya, @M1cha and I have reached the conclusion to keep trlte and tblte as different devices, as the dt.img's are not mergable...

Quick question, is your dt.img pulled from the latest stock ROM?

[micky387]

I'm building dt.img from last kernel source (in same time with resurrection remix Rom for note edge)
