I want to try compiling my own kernel for 2.2. Where can I find the source code?
For the incredible its not out yet i dont think. I could be wrong though.

I will try git
It's not there. And they won't release it.
Since when was HTC obligated to release kernel source if they didn't release the binary?
Well regardless I want to try making kernels how do you know the version of the kernel you downloaded ?
You don't understand. The aosp kernel source does not contain board support for the Dinc.

It seems that HTC developer page has the source code for the 2.6.29 Droid Eris (codename Desire) kernel available. Maybe this could be usefull for you developers!

does this mean us leakers can root now?

No it doesn't but it does mean a lot more roms for root users

This is what we need to get OC'ing working right?
Can we flash this to our current roms?

This is already in all the current ROMs. Now we can start using modified kernels that allow for OC and the like.

Yeah that's what I was thinking by I didn't know for sure. But why couldnt we OC before if we already if we already had the kernal?
mmm.......

I don't think you understand what this is. This isn't a rom or a patch or an update. This is the source code to the Eris's kernel. We didn't have this before, we were waiting on HTC to release it.
Do a google search for linux kernel to get a better idea of what a kernel is.

The runnable form of the kernel can't be changed (much very easily, at least). Having the source code renders making real changes to the kernel feasible.
very nice. i cannot wait to come back from vacation to see our phone finally OC'd
YESS! Finally
So this wont help find a vulnerability for us leak users?
It may help find a hole in 2.1 for leakers... But dont get your hopes up to high.. The 1.5 source didn't yield much in the way of root when it was released. Im more excited to possibly see OC on the Eris!!
I'm not a leaker, but there's a thread in General that talks about the incredable being rooted from just the source. That's where you'll probobly find a hole.

You don't install it, The source code is needed to build a custom kernel, but either enable overclocking or generally tweaking it to improve performance. You need the Android SDK to compile a kernel.
But, can we get the OS from this source or it's just the kernel?
Sent from my GT-S5830B using XDA App
Install Linux eg Ubuntu, down it, build it directly or git AOSP source then build.
My computer is unstable, or I can use it to port CyangenMod. But I have git AOSP source, I might try to build one. However, how to flash the built is a big trouble...
been trying to dowload this for a whole day. each time only got 10kBps speed, and resulting in timeout. also cannot resume. wth samsung????
Went well for me so here's my upload

this is the Gingerbread source code for Samsung GT-S5830. It is primarily for those who wants to build custom ROMs.

and custom kernels
there is' someone who can compile a kernel for beta ics Andrew Garen?
There wont be any custom kernels for those roms till there's source code for ICS
Sent from my Google Nexus S 4G using xda premium
True. "Compiling" is referring to compiling source. As soon as we get source code....we're golden.
You could take the boot.img and unpack it to make minor tweaks but not nearly enough. The real quality tweaks reside in the zImage binary.
A boot.img consists of two major parts;
1. Ramdisk
2. zImage (binary)
Who's Andrew Garen?
Has been the ICS kernel already released? If yes, could please provide the link to the downloading page or git repository, I need to recompile a custom one.

hi...
Ever since i have joined xda i have been listening about a particular device getting its source codes released (latestly galaxy note). All that i know is that source codes help the deving community a lot.
But how do they?
Are Source Codes untouched AOSP Roms that are untouched by carrier branding and have the native support for all hardware built in?
Today i stumbled upon opensouce.samsung.com and i found this:
GT-I5800
GT-I5800L GT-I5800_OpenSource.tar.gz
GT-I5800
GT-I5801
GT-I5801 HK
GT-I5801 INDIA GT-I5800_OpenSource_Update1(froyo).zip
GT-I5800D USA GT-I5800D_OpenSource(froyo).zip
GT-I5801 EUR GT-I5801_OpenSource.tar.gz
So these are froyo source codes i guess.
Are these of any use for cm devlopment (cm 6/7).
Sorry for the noobish questions!
Thanks in advance!

Samsung releases some roms which aren't yet completed fully.
they are intended to be compiled by the rom developers and release it online..
this is the trend for the lazy samsung guys
But would it be beneficial for cm development??
And how are they incomplete ROMS? ajay can u pls answer them all..

the benefit of Cyanogenmod is that it is based on Gingerbread, which we can never get it officially by samsung....and CM contains lots of new features that Samsung will never give us
Source code is made by programmers. They type the code, and code is initially just text. The source code is then compiled into something that the phone can understand. That is what we get on the phone, the compiled stuff. The thing is changing the compiled stuff is harder an more restricted than changing code.
The difference is like the difference between changing/adding to an already finished meal (the compiled stuff) vs changing/adding to the recipe (the source code). You can do more and make more significant changes by changing the recipe (source code).

Maybe I missed some annoucement... does anyone know if Sony will release sources for 12.0.A.2.254?
Seems to me that development for custom kernels (like Doomlord's) have stalled because there are no sources available.

As I understand it they have no choice but to release the kernel source as it's linux and the licensing requires that it be made available. That said, the proprietary blobs for the cameras, wifi, etc. aren't generally licensed the same way so they don't normally get released, at least in source form.
I've requested Sony to provide the source and they will do that really soon

Nice! :good: :fingers-crossed:
Just out of curiosity:
I had an Xperia Arc. My perception was that Sony released the kernel sources (including proprietary modules and everything else which is necessary to build a working custom kernel) relatively quickly and without anyone asking for it. Has this policy changed, did they just forget in case of the Xperia SP/.254 kernel sources or did I just perceive this wrong?

Probably not, the kernel used for 10.1is not related to the Sony kernels as I ported the drivers to a newer kernel version. We already have any changes that may be in the 2.254 kernel and more. (I didn't notice any changes to the Sony drivers).

Finally had a chance to look at them as I got home from work only just before...
Just left my computer to push them today so didn't get a chance to check them but adfad666 is right and not much actual changes changed though which are useful for us.
Just some general CAF / kernel updates so not too important.
A panel driver was updated but I'm doubt we we will use it as our kernel is not based off stock.
Probably not. . Let's wait for 4.3 kernel from Sony as it will be worth rebasing off that
Thanks for the link to sources....
