Thanks to the amazing work of mapkel you can now use this script to compile and pack the kernel!
UPDATE: read mapkel's post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=43419784&postcount=45
Thank him here.
This is an informative guide and I decline responsibility for any damage to your device.
Do not attempt to build this kernel if you are going to complain to devs about issues.
That being said, mapkel has made this so that even those with little knowledge can build the kernel without any issues. If you do have any issues, post here and I will try to assist you.
The following is a complete tutorial to building the kernel.
Credits:
Kernel Devs: krystianp, lehjr, Epinter, and mmontuori for making this kernel; without them there is no kernel.
Big thanks to mapkel for this amazing script.
Another big thanks to benouch for the original idea.
A final big thanks to zen25205 for help with building the kernel and getting the Linaro Toolchain.
Kernel Kitchen
I suggest building this with the latest CM9 MROM until the public beta is released.
You need to install Ubuntu 12.04 64bit (Google for instructions)
Prerequisites:
Open a terminal and run the following commands the first time:
Code:
sudo apt-get install -y build-essential kernel-package libncurses5-dev bzip2
Code:
sudo apt-get install git
If there are any issues with this guide, or if you have any issues building the kernel, post here and I will assist you as best I can.
Stage 1 (start at stage 2 if you have already built the kernel using this script:
Code:
cd ~
Code:
wget https://www.cubby.com/pl/kernel_script.zip/_25f010125b924ec7a42fe1d66245f36a
Code:
unzip ${HOME}/kernel_script.zip -d ${HOME}
Stage 2:
Code:
cd kernel
Code:
./script
There will be 4 choices to make throughout the script:
Clean install y/n (choose "n" on first run of script)
What defconfig? (Usually it is MROM but in the last update it is temporarily MROM2)
Compile CM9 or CM10 kernel? (self explanatory)
Name of config (Any name works. I chose "olympus".)
enjoy)

No Wifi
Cheers, the script works great on Ubuntu 11.10, without a hic.
However, upon flashing the kernel, I get no wifi. I'm going to try your step by step tutorial...
Edit: I built the kernel using MROM2 defconfig and for CM10, and flashed "someone's" CM10

You won't be able to do both.
If you compiled the kernel for CM10 you will only be able to use it on CM10.
Unless you are able to update Ubuntu as you compile the kernel for CM9.

It's impossible to compile while updating, didn't remember that, silly me :silly:

Can anyone or everyone list sites that work with a direct link.
That means I go to www.sitename/filename.zip and it starts downloading.
All I can think of right now is a cloud storage like Dropbox or Google Drive. I know Dropbox has a traffic limit for public files. Don't know about Google drive

upndwn4par has unlimited bandwidth, iirc. Maybe you can contact him and ask if you can host that one tiny script file there?
Or you could sign up with a free webhost and upload it there. There are several free webhosts with unlimited bandwidth (with a very limited space as trade-off, but I think it's more than enough for the script file).
If it's just a single script, maybe something like pastebin.com or similar might be an option? A little inconvenient since you have to copy and paste content instead of just download, but AFAIK it does have unlimited bandwidth.

If this does not solve the problem, I can provide space for the script on my own server with a separate FTP account.

Not quite. You can still download a file, for example using wget.
If You have a short public link, for instance: copy.com/PJzYgAUKECQm, You need to open it and copy the full link. In this case: copy.com/s/PJzYgAUKECQm/BetterBatteryStats_xdaedition_1.13.4.0.apk
then:
wget copy.com/s/PJzYgAUKECQm/BetterBatteryStats_xdaedition_1.13.4.0.apk
and done.
I will look at all the suggestions later today.
Thank you.

This is a continuation of the "Compiling CM6 for Eris" thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=856215. But since Team ADX has really come together on this, we are releasing it in it's new form.
Thanks to workshed for working to get the Eris on the Official CM list and merged into the main repo. And also, thanks to workshed for most of the v6 --> v7 changes to EasyDev!
This script will grab CM7 source and compile a CM7 ROM for you using the official vendor tree that is built-in to the CM source. You have the option of including Google Apps or not.
Uses:
CM source - https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git
Conap's CFS kernel that's built-in to CM source - https://github.com/Conap30/htc_kernel_desirec_cfs
Requirements
-------------
1) 64- bit Linux -tested on Debian, Ubuntu 10.04, Linux Mint (if you have a different flavor of linux and easydev worked for you, please let us know so we can update this list)
2) An existing Eris ROM that the script will pull the proprietary files from.
INSTRUCTIONS
1) Download the script
2) 'chmod a+x easydev-v9.sh'
3) copy it to the directory of your choice or leave it where it is
4) copy an existing ROM to the same directory (tested with GSB, but most should work)
5) run it ('sudo ./easydev-v9.sh')
Possilbe future features:
Done.
Changelog
v1 - initial release
v2 - added squisher, made 'make clean' optional, added installation of dependencies, cleaned up output
v3 - uses existing ROM to pull proprietary files, renamed to 'easydev' for case sensitive linux admins
v4 - fixed file missing from list in unzip-files.sh in vendor tree, fixed move/rename of existing ROM, change 'make clean' option to default to no instead of yes
v5 - added 'apt-get update' to refresh repo list (should install dependencies now), swapped order of extract-files and unzip-files to fix 'chmod akmd' issue, tried not to break anything else
v6 - moved questions to beginning of script, added check to only init repo the first time, added check for existing ROM, modded vendor tree to fix compile issues
v7 - removed CM6 stuff, removed kernel compilation code, removed vendor tree code, changed from CM6 to CM7, fixed path bug, added 32-bit libs to dep list
v8 - added ALL official CM devices (mostly untested), minor update to dependency installer code (4-21-11)
v9 - added an extra check for correct Java version, fixed .zip rename issue
Download links:
v7+ --> https://github.com/gnarlyc/EasyDev-Eris
NOTE: If you have issues with google setup or not being able to pass andy the android at the beginning of setup, please delete Provisions.apk for system/app you shouldn't have a problem, but just incase, this will remedy it. -workshed

It removes any previously built ROMs, etc. It's not needed every time, so I've made it optional in the next version. The problem was that sometimes the script would be broken in some way and wouldn't build a ROM. But, there's so much text displayed to the screen, it's not always easy to notice. So, I was actually flashing the same test ROM over and over instead of getting a new build...
Great work guys. Going to try it out on Arch Linux and if anyone's interested I'll give details about how to get it working there (or just modify the script to detect Arch as opposed to Ubuntu and work accordingly.
<gripe>One complaint: commands (including scripts) should *always* start with a lowercase letter </gripe>
good work gnarlyc & conap.
this sounds great and i will be trying this when i get home. I have just one question. Why would i want to run this instead of conap's rom? Both being pure CM. I see alot of the other cm6 roms have stuff themed, but conap's rom doesn't. I'm assuming this is complete pure cm without little tweaks done by devs of the respective roms. Thanks in advance.

Some people just like to "roll their own", more or less. If you like having someone else make improvements and fix issues for you, then you'll probably want to stick with another ROM.
I would love to make my own fixes and tweaks but i dont have the knowledge nor the time to gain said knowledge. guess i will just stick with the devs roms. thanks
Very very exciting. I am installing Ubunto 10.4 now. So does EasyDev-v2 pull from the CM6 nightlies or the stable version and can we change where it pulls from for the CM6 source. This is great.
Will have to check this out later. Always wanted to understand the compile process, always to busy with other software projects. Thanks for building this resource for the rest of us.

Hmmm. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that this is currently grabbing 'stable'.
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b froyo
I'm thinking that to get the nightly, we'll have to change that to:
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b master
I'll try it as soon as I can. You got me to thinking that we could add that as an option, if I understand this correctly.
Nightly vs Stable
Yes, you answered my question regarding nightly and stable. I am having fun so far. I got all the necessary packages installed. That was pretty easy using the Ubunto package manager deal. So where do I find the proprietary.zip now? I am almost there to cook this sucker up.

I was apparently wrong about the "-b master" switch, but I think I mostly got it right...
Right now, you'll have to grab the files listed in the OP and zip them up into a file called 'proprietary.zip'. Then place it in the same directory that you run the script from.
I'm working on a way that you can just place an existing ROM there, and it will extract the proprietary files for you. That should be in v3.
Proprietary.zip Files
Can I download CELB Froyo 3.8 and uncompress it and do searches for those files and pull them out and zip them up?

Hi guys i'm getting an atrix to help out and play with. I don't have att instead i have Verizon so this is just for fun. I have a Galaxy Nexus and the forums are full of info to building roms and kernels so i figured i would start my own cm10 rom for myself and if at some point down the road others. I found this link http://wiki.jeago.com/index.php?title=Build_for_olympus and desided i would give it a go and at least have a base. However i ran into a problem, When i get down to the "lunch" command i do not have "cm_olympus-userdebug" listed? can anyone steer me on the right path or is this an old Link that has since been pulled? Thanks guys
Doesn't matter if it's not listed. As long as you have synced the right repo, "lunch cm_olympus-userdebug" still works as expected.
I think it pulls the list from the official CM10 repo (which does not include olympus), but the command will work with the files you've synced (which does include olympus).

Hi. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I guess that the official CM repositories doesn't have branches later than CM7 for the olympus. You have to get them somewhere else for CM9 and later.
Yes, that's what I said. The official CM10 repo does not include olympus.

Ooops, read too fast, my apologies...
I forked vendor, device and kernel repositories from CyanogenMod-Atrix github, but these are pre-alpha repos with known (and unknown) bugs. (BTW, though it compiles fine, the recovery won't install the resulting zip on my Atrix, still figuring out what's wrong)
ok now i'm getting way lost here. how do i go about adding this to my current files?
ok guys i just noticed that the link i was following had me pulling ICS not JB...wow i'm slow today.
Wiped everything and starting fresh. anyone have a guide to pull the needed build. Atrix4g18 sugested i needed https://github.com/epinter/android/branches and jb-olympus-new. I'm going to start over and this time pull repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b jellybean instead of the ICS and then i should be at least closer to what i need.

I'm not sure how to use the default.xml file in the link that quetzalcoatl2435 gave us, but in my case I created a local_manifest.xml file (from here) with the extra repos I needed and copied to .repo/local_manifest directory in the source tree root.
EDIT:
I think I got it, someone who really knows please confirm: instead of the deffault CM repo init, issue this: repo init -u git://github.com/epinter/android.git -b jb-olympus-new. Is that right?
OK for the time being i'm going to start rebuilding my repo again. i scratched everything so have to download the JB repo now. anyone with more info to using the Default.xml file or where it should be placed? Thanks guys
After looking at the Default.xml it seems he just added the Atrix to the list so i would assume i will copy paste and rerun repo sync? should i copy first then run repo sync or no?
All i have to say is thank you Verizon LTE with unlimited data and free tether LOL.
Don't use jb-olympus-new. That's for the new kernel and does not have the proprietary files included. You need to search for and add them manually.
Use this:
repo init -u git://github.com/epinter/android.git -b jb-olympus
repo sync
Assuming you've already installed all pre-requisites correctly, next do:
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch cm_olympus-userdebug
brunch olympus

No need to add android_device_motorola_olympus.git to jb-olympus-new. It's already included by epinter. You only need to add the vendor files.

The new branch is not for daily use (yet).

And the countdown begins..... I have another 8gb of ram i removed thinking it was causing Build issues for my Gnex (turns out it was missing some blobs...oops) i'll be putting that back in before i start building. Going to start with a clone copy of this rom, Anyone know what happens with the new kernel and this? Yes i know it's alpha but i'm testing so that's what i need to focus on.
ok guys i went over this a few times and I found a few errors that i was able to fix by installing packages that were missing (13.04 64-bit btw). But i'm stuck on this one. anyone have any idea? this is after the Brunch olympus command. After more hunting on google seems i might need (sudo apt-get install libxml2-utils) so starting the Brunch again we'll see.

? I have pritty well read every post in the Atrix forum. I just wanted to know if this ROM would be made public when ready, so that there is another CM10 rom apart from Epinters.
this is from epinter's source. The first post says that i'm building this for fun and to help out if i can, and at some point down the road MAYBE be a public rom, my skills are limited and i don't feel at this stage that i'm rdy to release a ROM to the public, that's not saying i won't..just not soon. As for now i'm thinking i should be building this on 12.04 LTS because i keep running into Compiling errors... now i've got another one that's im trying to figure out.
Anyone have any idea's what i'm missing now lol.
How does one port ROMs to another phone? I'm looking to try and port Xylon to the Find 5.
Sent from my X909 using xda app-developers app
it's really not that difficult. just have to adjust some overlays, change some stuff in vendor and maybe grab the camera from CM if the changes haven't been made to that ROM.
if you are building from source:
Find the 4.2.2 source code of the ROM you want to port
Get the manifest.
Add the CM10.1 device/kernel tree and proprietary libs in the .repo/local_manifest/roomservice.xml
sync all the repos
(do whatever the source might need you to set up: EG paranoid android, need you to setup your device properly in vendor/pa/* files)
compile. Fix any problems(maybe missing files, etc)
you could try a non-4.2.2-based ROM to port, but you'll run into more incompatibility issues to fix

use google and your own intuition to help you (this is why you should build the Cm10.1 ROM first.... the knowledge you gain will help you)
most likely either github is down, or the path referencing it is invalid, or something......
but the question is, do we need htc-msm8960? most likely no, since the oppo kernel is self contained
^^^ all this comes from experience.... seriously, go build cm10.1 for the find 5 first

we probably dont need it, but a lot of ROMs make you download ALL their devices and corresponding files.
Well, I removed the HTC lines from manifest.xml (maybe not a good idea?) but anyway, it finished syncing after.

yeah... it's a problem with a simple fix.... if the error was something like "packages_mms_app", then it's a more serious problem.....
does removing that repo mask a larger problem? that's why I'm pushing for OP to start small first by building CM10.1, and learn the environment (instead of posting every single problem he encounters here, and asks for help)
I've only started playing with android source code in March/early april... and these are things that I've learned/picked up since then.

Understood. I'm syncing up the Cm10 now. Thanks!
Is is best to do this all on Linux, Mac, or Windows?
It isn't possible to do it on windows so one of the other two.

Cool thanks. I just "finished" my compile on my Mac 10.7.8 but there was something about gcc422 not found. I have the latest XCode installed along with Dev tools. So can anyone help cause I didn't see anything with a Google.
I presume a clean Ubuntu is preferred

even on ubuntu, you still have to get specific packages: need oracle version of jdk, not openjdk, need to remove some incompatible stuff
heres a guide for ubuntu 12.10

I tried compiling CM10, and am even having problems with that. Google did not seem to help for this. Here is what I did:
I did the mka, then mka otapackage, and NOTHING is appearing. No zips at all.
Code:
hardware/qcom/media/mm-video/vidc/vdec/src/omx_vdec.cpp:9925:138: warning: format '%d' expects argument of type 'int', but argument 5 has type 'OMX_U32 {aka long unsigned int}' [-Wformat]
make: *** wait: No child processes. Stop.
That is the last fine before it gives me control of terminal again.

a few tips
typically, compilers only stop when there's an error, not warnings (unless you set flags like -Werror )
compiling is parallelized.... let's say you have a quad core, you can compile 4 projects simultaneously... when you have an error on the first make file, it stops.... but the other 3 projects will continue compiling and outputting logs until they're done (then the scheduler sees the first make file has an error, doesn't execute any more make builds and halts), so the last log file/line might not be showing you the error
For CM10.1, find5 is official now... you can just use brunch instead of breakfast/lunch & mka

In essence, I scour the log for errors?
I just presumed as CM10 already existed on the Oppo Find 5, it would be an error-free compile.

you could source the log for errors
or just run the compile script again and again.... the scheduler will continue building other packages, but it'll come to a point where it can't build anything else without that broken package.... and hence, the error in the log will be obvious(since everything else is already built, no logs from them)
it should be an error-free compile, but sometimes things could happen (a small tweak in package/A gives some problems when compiling with package/B)
I would say, most likely there's some build package incompatibility in your system.
Hi guys, long time no post. I have updated this guide on how to build kernels for Falcon so that anyone can learn! It's pretty simple once you get the hang of it. So yeah, here we go!
Prerequisites:
- You must have a Linux firmware running on your computer (I suggest Builduntu because you can skip the next one [build environment setup])
- Build environment setup (Put the this in terminal and follow instructions)
- Patience and a heart willing to learn
- You need to know the languages C, C++, Java, Ruby, Python... NOT! You don't need to know ANY coding languages.
[MOTIVATIONAL SPEECH]
Truth be told, when I first started out developing, I knew NO coding languages except for HTML and a little bit of Java. Both have nothing to do with kernels! I actually learned how to do this when I suffered from a concussion. So if you really want to learn how to kernel dev and you give up halfway, just know that a 14/15 year old kid could do it..

WARNING: I am not responsible for any damages to your phone or computer or pet unicorn. When you modify the wrong partitions, set too many jobs for your compiler, break your keyboard out of frustration etc., that is not anyone's fault but yours. Or your pet unicorn.
Your Personal Handbook to the Following:
- Anything inside "CODE" boxes, type it into your terminal. If you can't find terminal, then press CTRL, ALT, t.
- If I were you, I would write these by hand instead of copying and pasting it because after a certain amount of times, you will remember the linux commands and it will be easier for you to compile more kernels for different devices
- Use this thread as a "Help Me" button. Ask for help!

A New Beginning:
Let's start out with something simple, getting the actual code:
Code:
git clone https://github.com/cyanogenmod/android_kernel_motorola_msm8226
This could range from 3 minutes to 2 hours!
Once that's done, open up your file manager and rename the folder (should be android_kernel_motorola_msm8226) to whatever you want. I will refer it as "mykernel".
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Pokemon!
For this tutorial, we will be using a Sabermod 4.7 toolchain to compile. I WOULD teach you how to compile with 4.8+, but it creates errors that will take even longer for me to write about sooooooooo :fingers-crossed:. Now to get the toolchain:
Code:
git clone https://github.com/SaberMod/android_prebuilts_gcc_linux-x86_arm_sabermod-arm-eabi-4.7
Rename this to whatever you like, but I will be referring this as "toolchain"
Now go into you folder where the kernel source is stored...
Code:
cd mykernel
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You're Almost There!:
Time to set-up the compiler!
Code:
export CROSS_COMPILE=/home/(insert linux home name here)/toolchain/bin/arm-eabi-
This tells the toolchain that "OK, we want to make ALL this code here into a kernel".
This next line tells it that your defconfig (the toolchain's manual for compiling the kernel) that it's in the arch/arm/configs folder.
Code:
export ARCH=arm
Now to tell the it what the defconfig is!
Code:
make falcon_defconfig
Hehe, now to the hardest part of all...
MuHAHHAHAHa
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
THE HARD (coding) PART
You ready for this? HERE IT IS! TIME TO BUILD THE KERNEL!
Code:
make -j4
Now sit back, relax, and watch the code! Or you could read a book, watch ****, count your fingers, play with your toes...
If you have an error during the waterfall of code, find the part where it actually says *error* (you'll probably have to scroll upwards) and search it on Google or post it here.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
THE BEST PART
If you manage to get something that says "the kernel zImage is ready" or something like that, that means you've made it!
You have officially compiled your own kernel from source! Now you need to put it in a flashable zip.
Download this file and open it up, but DON'T EXTRACT IT.
Now go to your kernel source then "CTRL + F" and search for "zimage-dtb".
Find it and put it in the "kernel" folder of "FalconKernel - Signed.zip". Then "CTRL + F" and search ".ko".
Copy radio-iris-transport.ko and put it in the system/lib/modules (not pronto) of the zip.
Then find wlan.ko and rename it to pronto_wlan.ko. Copy and paste it in system/lib/modules/pronto of the zip.

Now you can put it on your phone and flash it!
I will update this in a bit. What feature would you guys want in your kernel? The most votes in the POLL above will be the one I teach you here!
Here I will walk you through on how to add the intelliplug feature made by @faux123
First, fetch my Green Machine kernel source (go into your kernel folder in terminal):
Code:
git fetch https://github.com/YoshiShaPow/green_machine_falcon
Then you could cherry-pick (basically copy) all my cherry picks for intelliplug from my source.
If you do check my source out, you can see there's a little link to a history of commits near the middle of the screen, right above the files/folders. You can see at this page of my features history, you'll see a bunch of commits for intelliplug. I will use those commits and copy it to your own kernel.
This copies the initial coding/first commit of intelliplug!
Code:
git cherry-pick 01a850f
This cherry-picks the remaining commits so that your newly added intelliplug is updated.
Code:
git cherry-pick 6623f2f^..4e1ece7
One more thing though, you need to add the line to compile intelliplug!
Almost all things compiled along with the zImage are in a file called defconfig. What a defconfig does, is tell your machine to build certain modules, kernel objects, drivers, governors, etc.etc.etc.. Now, all of them are found in the folder
arch/arm/configs
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
As stated in the OP, you have to modify the defconfig you use. (CM11 Kernel is falcon_defconfig, Gummy Kernel is msm8226_mmi_defconfig). Open up the corresponding defconfig and add this to ANY line anywhere.
Code:
CONFIG_INTELLI_PLUG=m
Now, for those who are familiar with "y=yes/n=no/m=maybe", you'll see that I specifically told you to put the "m=maybe" one. That's because when you compile the kernel again, right after you're about to start your build. Since you put that "m", the terminal will prompt you with a "y=yes/n=no" question on whether or not you would like to add the following feature. Since you would like to add the feature, put in "y". Later on when you feel more comfortable with adding features to your kernel, you can go back into the defconfig and put it as
Code:
CONFIG_INTELLI_PLUG=y
So that it will compile it without asking, since you have given it an answer.
Now you have officially compiled a "Custom Kernel" and with the knowledge you know, you could create a feature packed one by just kanging (copying one's work/features).
Always remember to
Code:
make clean && make mrproper
after every build to prevent errors and such!

I will use this to teach you how to make your own Bash Building scripts (and save time) to make it easier for your development life to flourish... eventually....

DT2W and S2W are more complex. They require a few other things (ex. Powersuspend). I'll wait a bit and see what feedback I get before moving forward to something a bit more complex like DT2W, or GPU Overclock.

Yes you can. Normally when using "make menuconfig", you use the command after making the kernel's defconfig (falcon_defconfig).

When you downloaded the anykernel zip, you aren't supposed to extract it. The best way to put the kernel in the zip is to just drag and drop it while IN LINUX. It will not work for windows! Or you could try signing the zip in TWRP (I think there's an option for that somewhere).

Those changes are a bit more advanced because it will bring build errors. The kernel is already preoptimized with o2 changes. The errors are fixable though. I don't think I'll be able to add an explanation for those in this thread, maybe through pm?

Building AOSP for the Nexus 6 - Continued!
Scott is no longer working with the N6 and he has graciously allowed me to continue his thread . We all owe @scrosler a special THANKS for his work on the original thread. Better yet please go buy him a beer!! I also want to personally thank all who contributed to the original thread. You all make it work!!
Preface
1. I want to start by saying that I am still a relative newb. I built my first aosp rom for my N9 using the the guide from the original thread and followed up with one for my N6. I hope that by moving this thread forward we can continue to help others get started while we continue our own learning.
2. All questions concerning the build process and setup are welcome. They may not all get answered but please ask.
This guide continuation assumes the following:
1. You have read the original thread's OP and scanned the remainder of that thread before posting here.
2. To get things started you can test a rom built from android-5.1.1_r14. Get rom below. Vendor blobs updated from here and include the updated LYZ28E blobs. I also added some missing build props.
3. I am also linking the github source for the rom. You can build your own. Get github source below.
4. I hope to add a short get started github tut in OP#2 and add a vendor folder setup discussion in OP#3. I'm still trying to figure out how @sykopompos did his. All help on this subject is welcome.
FYI TO ALL!!! All my testing is on USA Verizon netwok.
LINK TO ORIGINAL THREAD OP
Get ROM HERE
Get GIT SOURCE HERE
==========================================================================================================
The following copied from original OP with some minor editing.
This guide assumes the following
Have Ubuntu 14.04 or equivalent setup, fully operation, and up to date. Hard Machine or Virtual, makes no difference. Must meet the minimum specs for compiling. Info from Google HERE
Understand terminal command line entry as this is all command line processes.
Lets Begin!
Add Java
Code:
sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk
Add Build tools (Adds the required packages at the time of this posting)
Code:
sudo apt-get install git gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential \
zip curl libc6-dev libncurses5-dev:i386 x11proto-core-dev \
libx11-dev:i386 libreadline6-dev:i386 libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 \
libgl1-mesa-dev g++-multilib mingw32 tofrodos \
python-markdown libxml2-utils xsltproc zlib1g-dev:i386
Add Repo command (Syncs Google Repository with your local machine)
Code:
mkdir ~/bin && curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo && chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
Add bin folder to path for repo command (After you do this close Terminal and re-open to institute changes (easy way))
Code:
sudo gedit .bashrc
export PATH=~/bin:$PATH <-(add to end of bashrc)
Identify Yourself to the Repo (One day you may make commits so think about that when choosing your info!)
Code:
git config --global user.email "[email protected]"
git config --global user.name "yourpreferredusername"
Sync Repo (Download source... Sit back and grab a pop and a sandwich...)
Code:
mkdir ~/AOSP
cd ~/AOSP
repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-5.1.1_r14
repo sync
Note: I use AOSP as my directory name. You can use what you want. You could use "aosp" or "Source" or "android" or "whateveryoulike"
Set up ccache (this makes subsequent compiling much faster!)
First: Close then re-open the terminal so you are in the home root
Code:
sudo gedit .bashrc
export USE_CCACHE=1 <-Append that line to .bashrc then save and close
cd AOSP
prebuilts/misc/linux-x86/ccache/ccache -M 25G <-I use 25 gigs but you can change that value to any size you feel appropriate)
fhem Alternate ccache setup.
Install ccache using package manager (I use synaptic)
set ccache size - One ccache for all directories.
Code:
ccache -M 35G (I use 35 gigs but you can change that value to any size you feel appropriate)
I do not edit my .bashrc I use the following before my final make command. See Readme Build It
You can choose to use or not use ccache for any build/operation from any directory.
Code:
export USE_CCACHE=1
ccache manual
Install proprietary binaries (Needed for things like GPS and Bluetooth, they are not Open Source like Android) (Install proprietary binaries from here in the root of AOSP folder (or whatever you called yours))
Code:
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/drivers
Run envsetup.sh
Code:
source build/envsetup.sh
Choose Device
Code:
lunch aosp_shamu-userdebug
Build it!
Code:
make -j16 otapackage
Note: using -j16 means 16 worker threads. This is fine if you have 8 logical CPU's so you may need to adjust that to a smaller or larger number if you have more or less Logical CPU's. Example: I have an i7 K edition Haswell so I have 8 logical cores; so I build with -j16. If you have an i5 quad core CPU which is 4 logical cores then you may want to consider -j8 as the set number of worker threads. Oddly enough Google actually recommends 3 to 4 times the number of logical CPU's. When I do that I have nothing but build crashes. You may need to experiment to get the right blend of performance and stability during build!
If you use
Code:
make -j `getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN` otapackage
it may take a little longer but it won't crash.
Find it
Should be located here: /home/yourusername/AOSP/out/target/product/shamu
Congrats!
Your know among the elite enthusiast that can build from source! Pat yourself on the back!
Git Hub Tips
There is already much written on git use so I am not going to try and reinvent that wheel!!!! I will provide some usefull links for your reading pleasure. I will also provide some tips based on my personal experiences using git. I have found there are many ways to get the same result using git and there are also many ways to break your your work. I did a lot of trial and error and deleting to learn what works best for me. Start small, don't be intimidated, and stay patient -- it will come. The following assumes we are using a linux distro.
1. Open a GitHub account ----- its easy. Keep it simple. Follow the setup instructions and use recommended HTTPS connection.. I also suggest caching your login info - I use 60 mins for my default cache time.
2. Install git. It is easiest to install Git on Linux using the preferred package manager of your Linux distribution. I use Synaptic Package Manager. Keep it simple. Follow the setup instructions and use recommended HTTPS connection.
3. Git Tools: I prefer using Geany with terminal and File and Tree Browser and VC control plug-ins. There are many tools available and you may need to find one that works for you. You can install Geany and its plug-ins using your distro package manager.
4. ROM Tree Structure Very Important. I recommend keeping your rom GitHub tree structure in line with the Android Git Repositories.

Hey @fhem! Glad to see you take over, you're always very helpful!
In your Repo Int code above, did you mean "android-5.1.1_r4"? I wanted to double check that part for the guide.

Yep. That's the latest. That's what I built above if you look at the fhemaosp default manifest.

Hello @sykopompos, I am just glad to see you here! Thanks for all your contributions!
I let @fhem take over the thread since he is more active than I. But I appreciate all the help you have given and will continue to give!
Knowledge is TRULY priceless!

Can we have guide about building ROM from open source? e.g LG open source. Actually I was trying to build a M1 review ROM with the LG open source but it fails. I tried several times and finally give op due to errors. I downloaded the android source and then follow this guide and then download LG G4 ROM from following.
http://opensource.lge.com/osSch/list?types=ALL&search=H815
I set up the environment and then started building but it fails again and again. I think it will be very helpful for every one who interested in building ROM from open source. Thanks

I have never worked with any LG source codes. I would suggest you start your own thread on the LG G4 Forum. It definately sounds like you got enough to get one rolling. Good luck with the G4.
Hello,
I am trying to build android 5.1.1_r6 for the Nexus 6 and was able to get it to build and install. Had a weird issue where gapps would not install, but I think I fixed that by flashing a different set of gapps. My issue is that I am unable to hear people through the handset speaker when I make phone calls. I have no idea what it is. Apparently they can hear me, but I cant hear them. I can use speaker phone, but even that seems lower volume than normal.
Also, side question, since I am building AOSP 5.1.1_r6 am I supposed to use the preview binaries found here: https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/blobs-preview
or just use the factory image binaries?
Thank you

I haven't been able to get _r6 to build due to errors in frameworks/opt ever since merging so good for you on that. As for the binaries It was found a while back that the Google one were incomplete. People were using The vendor files from chroma in their stead. I haven't spoken to fhem in a couple of days but it looks like his github is under construction atm. I forked the vendor repo from him since he had changes that fixed some no sound issues as well. Again I've yet to build _r6 successfully so no idea if these will solve your issue but you're welcome to try them out? You can get them from my github here: https://github.com/rockinroyle/platform_vendor_moto_shamu
Let us know how it goes? I'm trying again after I clone frameworks from scratch.

I had no luck with r6 either. I reverted back to r5. I looked at chroma/zephk on git and I don't think he took the whole r6 merge to his git repos - not sure what he did.
I'm sticking to to r5 for now.
I've been building r6 fine with zero issues. Did notice the speaker issue on call but fixed it with two commits from chroma in device/moto/shamu for audio. I've also been using the latest binaries posted by google on the aosp page, no issues that I can tell. WiFi calling/normal calling, sound all around, SMS/MMS, all works.
