Re: SailfishOS on Nexus 5
 

I think it would be best if you enabled the services in init.rc as listed here http://piratepad.net/lYkoEab7p1 rather than copy the modified init.rc directly as sometimes it bootloops.

Now I'm properly gone ;) till the 27th. Although I may be able to lurk around now and then.

Tried to install a keyboard prediction. This is what I get
There isn't much that I can go wrong.. Copy and paste.

Re: SailfishOS on Nexus 5
 

i have now implemented unix domain sockets to share the file descriptors of the buffer_handle_t but for some reason gralloc->lock does not want to work in the renderer app on the transfered buffer handle, any ideas?
(testing on my jolla phone with a small test application which creates a buffer and sends the handle to the sfdroid application

EDIT: after reviewing the comments in the android source i noticed that i missed a call to gralloc->registerBuffer. sharing the buffer handle works now :)

Re: SailfishOS on Nexus 5
 

you need to go steal the package from your Jolla since its properietary

Re: SailfishOS on Nexus 5
 

It's just you don't need the "-de" package, the first one is enough as far as I remember.

updated android compat layer instructions: http://piratepad.net/FtZYtm4tDY

(almost) completely untested!
feel free to update the contents to make the tutorial simpler.

please share your success/failure experiences

Re: SailfishOS on Nexus 5
 

The uploaded CM image seems to be invalid:

asser failed: getprop("ro.bootloader") == "HHZ11k" || ..

For the other part one has to install dependency SDL2 and i get:

error: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set in the environment.
SDL_Init failed

Re: SailfishOS on Nexus 5
 

The first issue is that the CM image does not support your bootloader. I have to add your bootloader to the allowed ones (it should work with any bootloader anyways, the original CM image has no differences in startup code but simply has more bootloaders in the allowed bootloader section). I will update this sometime during the day.
EDIT: It simply allows any bootloader.

The second issue is that some environment variables are not set. How do you start sfdroid (ssh, terminal-app,...)? Try starting it as normal user (it does not need root permissions anyway).

I have updated the piratepad to include the sdl2 installation.

EDIT: I have adjusted the bootloader check, see http://piratepad.net/FtZYtm4tDY

@liar

What's the expected behavior, should CM start beside lipstick?
How can i test if it started?
And how to get back after i started sfdroid?

Re: SailfishOS on Nexus 5
 

If you launch sfdroid a window should appear in SailfishOS with the screen contents of android drawn inside that window. If you want to get out of it, simply close sfdroid and kill surfaceflinger, zygote, vold and netd, media and keystore, killing those processes is optional but if you do and relaunch sfdroid it will not render anything anymore.

EDIT: Also be aware: these services are started during boot, if you want to disable them again apply nh1402's init.rc tutorial in reverse.
