Compiling from sources results in bootloop (Galaxy Nexus) 4.0.3-r1

[Milan Berger]

Hi again,

set up a plain Ubtuntu as I was told and I build the source without

modifications, my image results in a heavy bootloop, attached the

messages here:

http://pastebin.com/nHF0h9Tn

after a random "died" it seems to start all over again.

What am I making wrong? What are those permission problems?

Regards

I'm not exactly sure as this doesn't look exactly like what I'm used to. A known issue with Galaxy Nexus is that the bootloader doesn't write a valid filesystem, so in the background of the first boot a new filesystem gets written in the background, while the rest of the system is busy failing to start. When the filesystem is written (which takes a while), the device reboots and the system is able to start.

I should document that.

Oh really, so I guess I just have to wait some time?
How long did you let it loop?

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

I'd guess up to 5 minutes. It feels especially long on 32GB devices,
to the point where I originally also thought things were stuck in a
bootloop indeed.

Hey JBQ,

thank you so, just waited for the device getting black and after this
one I started a adb reboot but
the bluetooth driver seems to fail badly:

I/bluedroid( 179): bt_enable: ret: -1, errno: 19

I got this one scrolling like hell in adb lolcat.
Camera is not working as well. It dies after starting.

I got drivers via:
cd ./device/samsung/maguro
./extract-files.sh with my attached phone using 4.0.2 stock.

[Tyler Shultz]

I had the same issue... honestly I don't know what I did differently
Other then making sure to pull the binaries and make clobber before
another build attempt.

?

I've only tested in any kind of depth with the official binaries from
http://code.google.com/android/nexus/drivers.html - I didn't do any
testing with extract-files.sh for Galaxy Nexus recently since the
primary expectation was that people would use the official binaries
instead, and it's very possible that the result just wouldn't work.

Now, that being said, I rarely test bluetooth either way, so it's
possible that making it work fully would rely on some proprietary
configuration option that I'm not aware of.

Hi Jean-Baptiste,

me again.

I try to give you all steps I have done perhaps we can find a
soloution together
cause this drives me crazy:

I set up an Ubuntu 10.04 LTS like you advised me to.

Chose repo with:

repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b
android-4.0.3_r1
synced it.

Downloaded the 2 sh files for building properitary modules via
http://code.google.com/intl/de/android/nexus/drivers.html#maguro
Started both sh files to extract? modules.

Started building with:

source build/envsetup.sh
lunch -> 8 for maguro

make clobber
make -j2
make -j2 otapackage

First installationtry was wiping the device and applying the
update.zip file.
This resulted in a non working bluetooth and camera.
So I thought about applying img. files via fastboot and I packed them
alltogether to an .zip file, like the factory images, applied the
android-info.txt and did a
fastboot -w update update.zip.

Got the bootloop, rebooted after some time, android starts up but adb
lolcat gives me those:
I/bluedroid( 208): bt_enable: ret: -1, errno: 19
I/bluedroid( 208): bt_enable: ret: -1, errno: 19
I/bluedroid( 208): bt_enable: ret: -1, errno: 19
I/bluedroid( 208): bt_enable: ret: -1, errno: 19
I/bluedroid( 208): bt_enable: ret: -1, errno: 19

Ok... no bluetooth, I could live without that but after starting
camera, nothing happened.
Screen black, device did not really respond on pressing backkeys in
the Logs I can see:

I can't see what's going wrong here.
Heard about other user and you too, they all compile without any
problems and got a working camera, gps and bluetooth (did not try gps
til now)


ty in advance and for your time

regards
Milan

[Jean-Baptiste Queru]

Camera and GPS are known to be broken, they require proprietary files
that aren't available as Google doesn't have a license to distribute
them. I think I've also seen the same log messages about bluetooth, so
I assume that it's also broken when using the factory firmware (and
Google doesn't have a license to distribute the firmware that is used
on consumer devices).

No, the factory images run like a charme with camera and bluetooth

working.

Would be a big mess if you could not use this with a developer device

and a stock rom.

The factory images contain all the necessary files. They're not
covered by the same license.

Hi all,

Had this issue been fixed? I met the same problem infinite boot loop while using the android 4.0.3_r1 plus the Graphics and GSM libraries from Google site(http://code.google.com/intl/de/android/nexus/drivers.html#maguro).
Thank you.
