Hi,
While I was playing with my own FFOS build, I've noticed that my phone's
external SD card wasn't detected from within FFOS (e.g. contacts, media
storage). I had no problem seeing it and accessing its contents from within adb
shell though.
After some trials and errors, I've found that system/bin/vold was the culprit.
Replacing it (initially as a test) with vendor's one fixed the problem. And
indeed, looking at Flame device's extract-files.sh script, I can see that vold
is extracted from vendor's image. So, why is vold rebuilt if it isn't fully
working and is replaced in the end by vendor's one?
Similarly, without extracting anything from vendor's image, I've found that
system/etc/gps.conf, system/lib/egl/egl.cfg, system/lib/egl/libGLES_android.so
and system/lib/hw/lights.msm8610.so are "generated" (built or copied from
another source) by FFOS buildsystem, while also being listed in Flame's
extract-files.sh. So, in such situations, rather than randomly discovering bugs
and trying to fix them by trials and errors, how do you know if a file
generated by FFOS buildsystem should be replaced by vendor's one in the end?
BTW, is the replacement by such prebuilt binaries expected?
Thanks,
Émeric
