source for msm 8930

[dkm635]

please, give me hint where can i find the same repo for msm8930ab thanks.

[M1cha]

this repo is for upstream LK and Qualcomm uses an old fork from 2009. The branch used for msm8930ab is LA.AF.1.1-02810-8064.0: https://source.codeaurora.org/quic/la/kernel/lk/tree/?h=LA.AF.1.1-02810-8064.0

You can compile the msm8960 target which supports your soc.

thanx , no need to alter anything to support msm8960 ?

[dkm635]

i am not sure about this but

git clone git://source.codeaurora.org/quic/la/kernel/lk/tree/?h=LA.AF.1.1-02810-8064.0

Cloning into '?h=LA.AF.1.1-02810-8064.0'...

fatal: remote error: access denied or repository not exported: /quic/la/kernel/lk/tree/?h=LA.AF.1.1-02810-8064.0

i dont know how am i supposed to clone or download from that page

[M1cha]

git clone https://source.codeaurora.org/quic/la/kernel/lk -b LA.AF.1.1-02810-8064.0 lk uses the same target for all variants of a base soc, that's why msm8960 should fully support msm8930ab.

i have downloaded it are there any libraries or special compilers needed to make it ?

@dkm635 no, just the default stuff like your arm gcc toolchain.

[dkm635]

its returning the error described above, in ubuntu

make[1]: arm-eabi-gcc: Command not found

[M1cha]

you have to install a bare-metal ARM toolchain and tell lk the prefix using the TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX environment variable.

If you don't understand that, just google it because it's usual setup stuff that other people have already explained a thousand times.

note that the qualcomm/quic/caf sources are for dev boards so you'll likely have to make quite some changes before you can get it to run on your device. Also, 8930 and 8960 were not so homebrew friendly (first snapdragons with TZ afaik).

[M1cha]

@zeusk the changes are usually quite minor but generally you're right. I'm using CAF-LK on tons of production devices and most of the time all you need to change is:

• mmc ports/timings
• lcd driver
• keypad

@zeusk,@m1cha thanx for your time , after you mentioned about the 8960's trust zone feature i am more concerned about what i am trying to achieve with all this , the discussion might go out of scope of this thread , but i am actually trying to change the bootloader of a device nokia lumia 1320 which has msm8930ab so that i can have fastboot interface (Q.1 is it even possible ) and flash a android rom , and as the first step , i need the bootloader made for my device (Q.2 what if i get it from any other device's rom package having msm8930 , will it work ) for which i searched and found this repo, i am willing to invest my time even so its almost tough level 999999999 for me and qualcomm don't provide data sheets(clocks etc ) (Q.3.do i need it in order to customize the bootloader sources ) not only that , every time i post here it feels as appropriate as poking a stranger in stomach what should i do, if there is any specific communtiy that can help me in this case
please forgive as i am poking you in your stomach
