Need Help Compileing Linux Kernel - Android Software Development

Hello,
I am wanting to learn how to build my own custom kernel and eventually rom.
I have done some "cooking" with kitchens but am more interested in complete build from source - This would include the kernel itself and stock set of apps that go along. I have googled many subjects but what I find seems to be outdated or just doesnt work. Can someone please point me in the right direction.
Thanks

I have only built the kernel. Have not been able to build the whole ROM.
Look up the relevant stuff on Cyanogenmod wiki

I'll Give it a try. How did you learn to build the kernels?
Thanks

[Q] How to compile AOSP 4.2.2 for Nexus 4

Hi, I would like to learn how to build a vanilla AOSP ROM with ubuntu.
Is the first time for me, so I need a complete guide. :angel:
thanks
Or someone can compile it for me... Pure Aosp without any tweak or mod...
And of course future update of aosp.
There are several guides, no this isn't a LMGTFY link, but it is a Google link. The first two are good guides.
Point being, you may need to refer to more than one guide until you have your build environment set up properly, and all the other variables in place. Might take you some time before you've built successfully, but it's a worthwhile experience.
Edit: obviously the links above point to some 4.2.1 resources, you can work your way around that with additional Google Ninja stuff. Seriously, go for it, it's fun.
No one is going to write you a personalized step-by-step guide on how to do it you need to read up and learn to do it yourself.
Start here:
http://source.android.com/
This section will tell you how to set up you pc to run it
http://source.android.com/source/building.html
As an example here is a guide to setting up an AOSP build environment, yes its for another device but it will give you an idea of what is involved in setting it up.

[Q] which AOSP 5.0 ROM for building yourself?

I am NOT a developer!
I am a Systems Administrator, and I have built a 4.2 before using ubuntu 14.04, with a SGS2 i9100.
I have attempted in the past to ask for a device tree so I could build my own pure AOSP, and no one was able to help me.
SO, I now have my hands on a S4, and I want to put 5.0 on it.
I can create the build environment. either the windows version or the ubuntu version.
What I would like to know is which ROM would provide me a bit of instructions on how to use and build their ROM.
I'm looking for a ROM as close to AOSP as possible.
Preferably without any CyanogenMod builds, but I hightly doubt that is possible.
Seems everyone is using them for some reason.
I've been going to the ROM's section and I see no instructions on how to BUILD the rom.
Sure, I see their Github, but no info in what environment its been build in.
Can someone assist in helping find a ROM, so I can contribute to this community once I get the feel for it?
thank you!
You can try building cm to understand the basis, then move to aosp

Help for Noob trying to compile first CM kernel.

Hello all.
Like the title says, I am trying to compile my first kernel.
I really like the CM11 i9505 nightly kernel, but it would be amazing in my world if it also had voltage/overclock/and gov additions.
It is my understanding that if I compile the kernel myself adding these features would be easy as they mostly exist in a single file that I could copy from similar kernels.
I have been trying to build my first build environment, but it seems that I am failing in amazing ways by trying to follow the CM guides on the their wiki. :crying:
I have an i3 dell 6420 laptop with Ubuntu (installed and functional) that I am dedicating to this effort, but I seem to need spoon feeding on this first attempt.
Does any one have a good step by step guide that I could follow for building the CM11 kernel?
Failing that does anyone have the time to chat in a live state on a weekend or late evening to help build this?
Of course if someone has a CM11 nightly kernel with the added features, I wouldn't object to using that and not reinventing the wheel.
Wrong section,
Ask a forum moderator (any one) to move your thread to the developer only section(of this subfroum)[emoji6]

He could just read the kernel tutorials in the android or chef central sections

[REQUEST] s3ve3g NEOX Kernel recompiling.

Hello everyone, first of all I wanted to thank Renix63 for posting the cm12.1 neox kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...nel-cyanogenmod-12-1-overclock-1-593-t3230195
Very useful and fun kernel to use, however, I would like to add some custom features of my own (I want to add support for specific wireless USB cards that use Realtek, Atheros and Ralink chipsets).
I did flash the neox kernel onto my phone (together with resurrection remix rom) and got the .config file out, in order to start the 'make' process.
The thing is, that I have no idea which compiler I would be using, and how to give it the path to compile, or how to appoint it to the specific ARCH=arm kernel.
I really need someone to grant me any help, or somehow to enlighten me, PM, Skype, facebook or whatever else.
Thanks in advance for anyone who has the knowledge and willing to share it on this thread with me, and other who are reading it.
NOTE: i will be grateful if someone compiled the kernel for me BUT i would like to know how to do it myself.
Please please please help me, it will be highly appreciated since i was already been looking all over the internet and was working on it for more than 3 weeks straight, without any success.
I would like to thank all the extraordinary developers on this website regardless, especially Renix63 for his wonderful kernel.

Aurora kernel port

Hi, I'm new to this platform, so if I post in the wrong place, let me know. I'm starting in this world of kernels, ROMs, mods and recoveries, so I need a little help. I was reading a bit about the kernels, what they are, what they do and so on. For this specific device, there is only one custom kernel, the Aurora kernel. But that thread is now closed, and I was looking for a custom kernel for my specific device (SM-J320M). So, in this post, I ask someone to port the Aurora Kernel for me and all the other owners of the same model that I have. So, if someone has the kindness to do it, I would really appreciate the work that was done.
Regards.
