Hello,
I am coming from an iOS world (no bashing please) and I first tried yesterday to update my Nexus One (GingerBread) to Jelly Bean. Although many forums post and blogs are available. It is nothing like easy for someone new in this world. Many acronyms, shortcuts etc ..
I summarized my experience in this blog post: www dot stormacq dot com/?p=494 (sorry for the link but stupid forum policies forbid forum newbie to post links. Not easy to share experience and information !!)
This is NOT a step-by-step tutorial, but just some highlight, warning and soem ways to avoid common pitfalls.
I hope it will be useful to others.

Give me more details:
Are you trying to install a aosp from your personal kang?
Are you trying to update?
Are you trying to port?
Why dont using some beautiful ports from developers section?

Not bad for an Apple fan tried to flash a Jelly Bean ROM I read your blog. It's not stupid forum policies but it's a way to prevent spammers post links to other sites.

Don't know if I understand :S
Just finished... Took me 6 hours!
I just did this, thinking that is wouldn't be so hard since I had unlocked and flashed CM 7.2 a while back. I feel like I definitely jumped into the deep end. I had never used fastboot usb or Blackrose and they were actually quite fun to learn to use, albeit frustrating. I think I had to reread like 5 different threads at least 10 times but I got there. 6 hours of solid learning!
I would love to see such a tutorial (I couldn't visit the link above, even after some 'dot'substitution/etc).
I am using CM7.2. I put CM on my N1 some months before, and just keep updating by installing new releases from CM. The nice thing is that I do not have to reinstall app/move data after each upgrade.
I would love to get step-by-step help on getting Jelly Bean (Evervolv rom), and wonder whether it'll be as "upgrade friendly" as CM afterwards.
Thanks!
i dint understand flashing the patch for hboot.. i did repartition using balckrose..
Nice blog post sebsto127. I did it slightly different in that I used OSX to manually install BlackRose.
Running the installer in OSX doesn't work as you've found (cant execute binary or something) so then I followed the instructions found in the BlackRose "manual" download..
All that did was screw my recovery partition and BlackRose couldn't install due to 'signature verify fail'.
After some searching through the BlackRose thread I found this (why it isn't in the OP I don't know): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29156664&postcount=1292
After reflashing 4EXT recovery all was good again.

Installing Blackrose allows you to repartition - Step #2 in the blog is to install the actual partition system for Jellybean
thanks!!
This might be somewhat off topic but I just want to mention that having tried both Evervolv's JB and Spazedog's, the Spazedog JB ROM has been much more stable for me and since it is based on CM, many of the CM customization options are there (Evervolv is closer to stock AOSP). You'll also want to overclock your processor to achieve optimum performance.
As for learning all this stuff, it seems to be a never ending process for me. I had unlocked rooted five devices since December but when I got my N1 a couple weeks ago...I was going crazy trying to learn about the particularities of this device (especially in regards to hboot & a2sd...neither of which are present/necessary on any other device I've tinkered with).

I ended up trying both Evervolv ICS and SpazeDog ICS. And find the latter smoother on my N1 (but I don't like the boot animation on SpazeDog )
I find the following helpful for ICS, and probably also what one need for JB.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1804571
As mentioned in many places by the devs, the JB is not as mature and there are known issues like camera. That's probably why there is not a complete instruction, by purpose.
Last but not the least, thanks for all the great things this community brings!

The devs (I can't name them, as they told me not to) are working on it, but they are stuck at the boot animation.
I'm also working at it, but will need a CM build, even if non-working, but the devs are refusing to provide me with it. So, I gotta wait.
i think devs for this device are very much secretive....why??? they should collabrate with the community should discuss the problems while building so that bugs can be fixed faster.....

They formed a closed community so that no one steals their work. Plagiarism is common.
I wanted to help, but they kicked me out.
They probably did that to balliboxer too, as he isn't on that committee.
That's just an analysis, not a fact.
Guys,
Naturally, as the title states, its a general discussion thread for huashan LBL users. I want to discuss some things with like-minded people and hopefully once the momentum builds, we can try to achieve something.
Android L official release is just around the corner and our official fate is sealed by Sony @ 4.3.
But i plan on trying to port L using existing 4.3 kernel and make it at least boot so we know later on its a possibility for Locked Bootloader to have Android L.
Unlocked Bootloader guys are advised to stay away, as sooner or later, they will get proper AOSP 5.0.
Some points i want to make important.
1. This is NOT a cheer thread. Dont just post to show your excitement. It blocks the purpose of healthy discussion.
2. This is not for people who want new android. Have some sense, it isnt going to come anytime soon.
3. This is strictly for Locked Bootloader guys. So any other person coming and commenting might just be wasting his time.
Although, if you really have some positive thing to contribute, than whatever you have, LBL or UBL, please do share with all.
This is a good starting place to study.
https://github.com/Android-L-Porting-Team/Android-L-Mako/commits/master?page=3
Lets begin !
Im not sure how much id be able to contribute but ill be willing to help any way I can do. Do we even have a vague idea of what kernel modules would be needed for L? Im assuming thats what we'd need as I remember Bagyusz saying thats what he had to do for KK.
Has any of the freexperia team looked at L yet to your knowledge? Perhaps they may be able to give some small insight into drivers etc for LBL/UBL.
Will PA still be updated while this is being looked at? I'm assuming PAC wont need anything now unless problems occur as its all automated. Until L is working PA is a good thing for those wanting L due to them implementing features from L in KK such as recents and tinted bars (if they ever release them to legacy!!).

Dont worry so much. PA is at a stage that if u have linux, u can just compile it right away and all is on Auto.
I will release milestone builds... No point pushing weekly updates if there arent any major changes.
For PAC, i have even taken that burden off and compiling and uploading is not my headache now.
And apart from above, i dont use PA personally. PAC suits me best.
As you stated the main concern is how well "the sealed by Sony @ 4.3. bootloader" will be able to cope with android L?
I really appreciate your enthusiasm. And yes there is only one way to find out. And that is to actually try porting it.

Porting is not an issue. We need a team. Not a band, but maybe 3 people. One compiler, One to tinker with trees and files, One tester. Just my suggestion.
One person cannot do it alone, unless he is an expert dev.
And about coping with L, all current devices having L port are using 4.4 kernel. And our 4.3 copes with 4.4. Technically there are not much issues compatibility wise. Just ramdisk and correct blobs.
I may be wrong, but thats why this discussion is goign on, if someone wants to correct me, please do.
I think this is an interesting project, XDA needs ppl like U
you think is easy port L with 4.3 kernel? I mean I'm just talking w/o reference, but Sony is just (until now) ignoring ART which is the biggest change for L (since 4.4 but well, now is not optional), and I think that could be a barrier to port new android for older phones (like SP)... what do you think about?
I hope this thread came with great news in the near future, :good:
This can be either hard or easy, hell or heaven, depending on the changes in L official release. Up until now, the changes are lying in ramdisk, but some features aren't available in the beta release.
But here are a few things that I noticed right now, before the official release:
1. UBL and LBL are stuck with 4.3 blobs. We are already using patched libraries, I guess it will get worse later, even on UBL.
2. I think we should wait until the CM12(?) will be working on UBL, while helping with bringing it up. If it works on UBL, then we should tinker with the LBL version. Actually, we have the hijack part, and we have the patches needed. I think it will be easy to get it to boot.
3. I think when @delewer finishes his kexec modules, some people that are experienced with kernel development could port it to SP, and then we could use it on forever locked phones. It will take some time, but will be the best for our phones.
So overall, if we have some luck, we would only have to kang CM trees, add the patches for hwcomposer, etc., add hijack and maybe some kernel modules. But we can be extremely unlucky and... I don't even want to imagine the worst case scenario.
Dont worry, the ground work is there. bagyusz gave us a great gift. I am sure Final release wont have boot-related changes. Maybe framework and libs, but not more.
The best thing is, 4.3 SONY rom DID NOT support ART. Bagyusz made it work even on LBL. and as Android L only supports ART, so thats the most important point i think.
Hmm, is ART even kernel-dependent?
I think that's not the case, and it's just great for us. So, bagyusz did a great work(it's just amazing), but I don't think he made any change to support ART.
And yeah, maybe there are just changes in frameworks and libs, but I'm still paranoid about this.
Anyway, I think that we are going to make it. That's what I feel, and I hope it comes true

Not kernel dependant, i know, but you know what, booting a new android version using old kernel with just hijack n scripts is one HELL of a job.
And ART even didnt work for a long time on AOSP CM for huashan on UBL.
My point was, what we have here is a 4.3 kernel and blobs which might or might not be enough for android L. But before official release, we can try to port L from mako, by replacing blobs and ramdisk and boot, so that we have at least a proof of concept that LBL CAN boot L. Just boot. Nothing else.

"Just" hijack? Bagyusz gave us an excellent base(hijack), and I bet we can boot FFOS or Ubuntu on that.
I didn't even know that ART didn't work on huashan before. Wasn't it a Gapps problem?
And yeah, these maybe aren't enough, as we are already patching some libs.
Ans one thing - I don't think we could port that from mako. It uses a little different base, and it isn't a CAF base. I think we should just wait

Just hijack meant different in a positive sense. But maybe it came out wrong.
And I'm talking about porting. Framework. Not building from source. They are actually doing same thing. I'll have to give it some time though.

Yes, I know what you are trying to say with porting L. Actually, there would be a few things that would break:
1. The YUV color palette support (fixable with our hwcomposer, gralloc etc)
2. GPU drivers - this is the "best" part. L is precompiled, and I think it uses the libRS override, which doesn't work on our huashan because of a kernel difference (if we could build from source, we could just not enable it). There are a few other things that aren't compatible. So even if we got it to boot, it would just show black screen, and I assume by "just booting" you mean actually seeing the effort
3. The whole "thing" is built off AOSP repos, not CAF ones. Idk if SP's stock kernel would play nicely with the whole different stuff.
These are just my assumptions, in the end everything could work just fine. If you have the sufficient time, it's nice to try. Just deleting the mako proprietary stuff, and adding the needed huashan blobs + adding correct ramdisk would get it to the bootable/half working state (or there is a chance that the "build" wouldn't even boot.). I guess it's not done yet for a reason.
Anyway, I have to squash one last bug in my CM builds. If it will work, I could also try porting the magical "L".
My friend owns an samsung galaxy tab 4 t-230 and would love to upgrade it into a more pure android. Since i kind of got into android ROMs and there are no AOSP or CM roms for the tab 4 t-230 this would be a great chance for me to build a AOSP or CM rom. I have ubuntu 14.10 and a decent enough pc with 16 gb of ram and an i7. If anyone could help me abit of how to build a AOSP or CM rom for the device i would be verry thankfull.
----------------------Edit-----------------------
I wanted to say thank to you guys! I did quite some progress by now. If you own a t230 / nu then feel free to check out my custom kernel

Relevant post - some starting info, and check out the CM wiki he links to. Also, and this is a very basic step, but if you've never done this before it can be informative: download a rom zip file (preferably but not necessarily a stock-based kitkat rom for this device) and open it up in either 7zip or WinRar, check out the layout and structure, and familiarize yourself with the updater-script. (Actually you can do that with a firmware tar file too). Sorry I can't give you any more useful info, not a dev, definitely not a rom designer, just a guy who knows a fair amount of android stuff.
Also don't let the tone of that post discourage you; the poster was answering a guy who was basically asking about the feasibility of building a brand new rom for the sole purpose of being able to use one particular proprietary Samsung app. Yes it is difficult, but still doable, and you say you're motivated...
Yes i did forgot to say that any links for learning are appriciated
Well.. I would ask moonbutt74 for more info regarding commands and such, probably more info than I can give but.. keep in mind your going to have to download about 20+GB of source code and all that. Also a bunch more knowledge of more things I don't remember. But it is alot
-DUHA
Well I decided to revisit this thread. Never thought I would come so far. I really want to say thanks to all of you who supported me and still support me. Everyone has a beginning and here was mine. Now I am actually there where I really wanted to be. Releasing a custom kernel and finally work on a custom ROM! Thank you XDA!

If you want directly custom rom, don't asking for custom rom for a device out there 2 months ago.
For sure Nothing Phone 1 will have a lot of custom rom in the future, first release/base is the rule for that.
It's better to be patient and have a good custom rom instead a rom incomplete or unstable.
Above all, installation/recovery is missing for the moment (only cuctom rom can be instalable by sideload)
and a lot of people are not ready to install a custom rom by this way, without a custom recovery.
