[REQ] HELP COMPILING WORKING TWRP for SGSIII - Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)

As the title implies I am going to attempt to learn the ins and outs of compiling TWRP as I truly prefer this recovery. With that said, I am a hack at worst... a script kiddie at best, so any "real" dev suggestion/guidance would be appreciated (cough, Roman, cough). Oh and yes... insurance purchased
I will update progress and/or RMA/warranty status as warranted

wish i could help but just wanted to say i really hope this project comes to life. Love this recovery

Requests don't belong in development. Development is for kernels, ROMS an mods. Moving this to general

(DEV) Cyanogen Mod Development

I am aware that there hasn't been much talk about porting over the lovely CM to our DHD's and i have decided to create this thread as a 'one-stop-shop' for all CM related info to our DHD's. If a dev comes forward and states they would like to start porting over CM that would be awesome, (and yes i would do it myself but im 17 have A2's and therefore don't have the time or resources)! I plan to keep this thread regularly updated and i hope that some advancements are made in this area. Feel free to brainstorm, make suggestions etc in the thread but please try to keep on topic.
Thanks
Is there any Development coming soon from you or someone else on this thread? If not..I will move it to General since there is no ROM, software or actual development going on.
Please PM me.

i beleive the cyanogen mod team will release for this device.
they uploaded a kernel based on the ace and tweaks for the vision added to it so it was 1 kernel fits all.
so its clear intentions are to produce roms for both. but first we need custom recovery.
if you want link i will try provide

Yes I was aware cyanogen used the Ace kernel for his vision 'bacon bits' but i was under the impression this was done purely due to us having a later kernel version. As i understand cyanogen has a G2 and hasnt really mentioned the DHD himself. However your are right in saying im sure someone in the team will dev CM. Yes the clockwork recovery image would definitely be stage 1, if someone could compile it ASAP it would definitely kick start development for our DHD.

Professional android developer (day job)..how to get into custom rom dev and hacking?

I really want to contribute to this community. Where do rom hackers start? Just download the aosp and start reading? Must a dev be a kernel hacker to do this kind of stuff?

Very promising to see a bonified Android Dev usin' the Sprint tab! I'm no Dev, but I'd love to hear your progress... I too have wanted to try and learn, but life seems to play great defense...lol. let us know how hard it is to get the toes wet!

good start point for someone learning how to make a custom rom would be to download a rom and unpack it..
you will see then what its made of and if you feel like it you could simply add a few bits re-theme it remove a few items then .zip it all back together...
this would earn you the title of a 'Win-Zip-Dev' !!
or you could just download android sdk learn a bit of java and learn to love linux for a year, then you would more likely find yourself with a more respectable 'Rom-Dev' status.
good luck - happy development

Thanks, that was exactly what I was looking for
Most ROM hackers here repackage Samsung's binary releases with extra/or less stuff and sometimes modified initramfs/kernel.
If you want to build CM6 from source I can help you with that, PM me.
Good luck with AOSP, it is missing ton of stuff to run on Tab.

Regarding feedback for custom roms

Since I cannot post in the development section, I will post this here.
I've been crawling the forums for some time now and I really appreciate kyrillos and Lestatios custom roms.
You guys are doing a really good job.
But one request for all the people active in the respected custom roms' threads:
Please stop spamming requests about what app shound be included in the rom and what launcher and so on...
Both Kyrillos and Lestat seem to tend trying to incorporate all suggestions that one raises in the threats.
Especially now, that the new froyo sources are available there are more important things to be done for our "rom heros".
incorporating "useless" apps to please 2 people just bloats the custom rom and keeps the devs from creating custom roms that are really "custom" on a much lower level, instead of just random pre-installed-app roms.
Kyrillos and Lestat: You need to be more arrogant!
You should be straight then it comes to developing your custom roms!

Thats a caring, yet stead-fast Developer for you..!!! Great response Lestat, keep up your good work...!! We all love your ROMs...!!
Right,
if i want bloatware on my android i might as well install m$ office.
Beter to concentrate efforts on building a lean mean android machine.
Theres more than enough apps in the market for users to chose from.
Valid Question
I have the same issue, can't post in development and hate those spammers. But here's a valid question:
Now that there is a clean XXJLP on the lose, is it still better to install Krillios ROM or Lestagious ROM or to go with the new and shiny JPL?

Is this a full port of sense with camera and all other things or theming? It's booting? If you create a list of bugs maybe if a dev who already ported sense could give you some hints on how to solve bugs Anyway you are great!

He was the dev that first ported S5 ROMs fully working on a Note 3, which sparked up the entire Note 3 ROM community. It'll be a full sense ROM for sure, adjusted to run on our devices.

Right now i am looking for a full 100% sense 6 port based on 4.4.4 to match our cm11's latest builds.
kernel was modded to work with the port i have already made the necessary changes working with devs who already ported sense to aosp phones.
So let's see. I will carry on my side of the work but just posted here so others also know and maybe generate something useful for the whole community

You are too kind my friend
Why don't you try opening a thread in the android development section? You could use this one for general discussions like these and the other for the real development..I think more developers will see the thread in the development section of the forum...In my opinion this will give more attention to your work

How many developers working on Ascend XT?

I know there is Custom Rom thread but it's kinda outdated and most devs updates are spread into different threads.
But my main question is:
Who are currently working on custom roms?
Which version and base? RR, Lineage, MM or Nougat etc....
Obviously it will not ask any ETA... Im patiently waiting for any rom not stock based. And hope the best for the devs can complete the task.

Not the same... i was asking what was going on with custom roms because there was no sign of active developments.
Now the question is: how many are working on it and their status.
