07:45 <krzk> FieryFlames, you ask and then you disappear, so how one can answer to you? :)

16:06 <FieryFlames> Sorry krzk, I don't have a bouncer setup so when i turn off my pc i get disconnected

16:10 <FieryFlames> I'm checking the logs when i rejoin so even if i'm not in the channel i should still see any replies

16:11 <krzk> FieryFlames: ah, ok :)

16:12 <FieryFlames> Btw, If you didn't realize I'm the dude who was emailing you

16:12 <krzk> anyway as I wrote you in email - I am pretty sure that we were trying exynos_defconfig because we try to support all Exynos boards with it

16:13 <krzk> Other hints - try Tizen v3.4 kernel (and check out it's defconfig). It's the vendor kernel, so far away from mainline

16:15 <krzk> FieryFlames: other option is Tizen v3.10 kernel which was a significantly modified v3.10 but still something clsoe to upstream (not a vendor kernel)

16:15 <FieryFlames> Just saw that email, thanks for the help with this. Are you sure it wasn't modified? I had to switch the cmdline from using bootloader if available to always use default string

16:15 <krzk> it's the branch tizen/linux-3.10-exynos3250-exynos4412/tizen on my vendor backup (and it has tizen_rinato_defconfig)

16:15 <krzk> Defconfig was not modified, but what was put into bootloader - I don't remember.

16:15 <krzk> We had full access to bootloader via serial

16:16 <FieryFlames> Oooh I don't have serial access atm

16:16 <FieryFlames> Is there pins on the board?

16:16 <krzk> On Gear2 device - no clue. I was working with development board.

16:17 <krzk> I think pins were there... I remember some of the real devices modified via soldering to get something :)

16:17 <FieryFlames> Oh interesting, might open it up and see if i can get serial

16:18 <krzk> mszyprow: maybe you remember whether it is easy to get serial on Gear2? :)

16:18 <krzk> FieryFlames: anyway pay attention to voltages - most of Exynos pins for serials are 1.8V, so not typical UART-USB converter

16:19 <krzk> If you just attach regular FTDI, you'll burn the RX pin

16:22 <FieryFlames> Could I use this? https://www.ebay.com/itm/142006114032

16:24 <krzk> FieryFlames: maybe, assuming it really has 1.8V on output, but it looks like some AliExpress stuff so... you know :)

16:24 <krzk> FieryFlames: you also need a converter with can detect 1.8V (as logic high)

16:25 <krzk> FieryFlames: I was using the same mszyprow recommended some time ago - instead of buying 1.8V adapters from Hardkernel, use regular 3.3V FTDI z resistor divider 1/2

16:26 <krzk> which can work with 1.8V coming from board (so board TX does not need anything, only board RX needs divider)

16:26 <FieryFlames> Ok I'm not gonna lie, you lost me

16:26 <krzk> mine was some FTDI with 1 kOhm dividers

16:36 <FieryFlames> I think I'm gonna try to avoid serial for now, might email one of the ppl you mentioned in the email to see if they could share what they cmdline they gave the bootloader

16:37 <FieryFlames> also am I insane or is http://linux-exynos.org/wiki/Main_Page down

16:59 <krzk> FieryFlames: yeah, linux-exynos is down for some time

17:00 <krzk> look into Postmarketos and Replicant

17:00 <krzk> You can check also resources mentioned here: https://exynos.wiki.kernel.org/community (but it is also not extra uptodate)

17:03 <FieryFlames> I don't think replicant has anything interesting for gear 2, but pmOS had someone else trying to get the gear 2 working
