anyone build rom from source - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all. I was wondering if anyone has build rom from source.
I followed all steps supplied with source. Some are difficult, and I am not sure how to do it.
For example building the kernel. I downloaded prebuild toolchain and put in folder where I unzipped source and android sdk to. Followed the guide on setting up build environment and tried to compile with commands from readme, but got 8 errors.
Maybe there are steps missing in the readme or I am doing something wrong. Anyone have a clue? Or can help me?

[Q] How to get source code and set up Git?

I want to start developing a custom rom(or at least to try).But firstly I don't know how to setup git and python on ubuntu.I read on google that I need that files.And when I set them up,how can I get the source code?If you know,please help.
Thanks in advance.
Edit: We downloaded the cyanogenmod source code successfully with repo.
Another question: Do I need python when I have eclipse?
If you know how, please tell us!
I know you can download source codes at github.com.
That's all I know....

Get linux and learn to use then get git then use git to get repo then use repo to download sources.

I know how to use ubuntu.I think I downloaded the kernel yesterday but don't know where it is.
Currently there are no proper manifest for compiling Android 2.2 or 2.3 for LG Swift, those that exist are outdated or deleted by the developers. We need a correct manifest for,lg shift device, vendor, kernel..etc to start building.

[Q] Setting up Ubuntu work environment

Im having a hell of a time figuring out how to configure git in Ubuntu 11.10. I am very new to the Linux environment and was wondering if someone could help me get my foot in the door and at least get the my work environment set up properly and the proper source code downloaded. Im really only interested in modifying the kernel so if you can help me set up and understand whats going on Id be greatly appreciative.
Thanks...
oh dude dont even get me started on linux ive literally just spent the past 2hrs trying to get flash to work on kubuntu i got so pissed i uninstalled and am switching back to ubu as we speak lol. ubuntu should have an irc help channel i know xubuntu did when i was playing around with it.
i just looked and there channel is #ubuntu
huzza!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! freakin a i finally got flash to work properly on kde shell i completly uninsulated kubuntu installed ubuntu downloaded flash from adobe not from the software center then put it in mozilla/ plugins folder and reinstalled kde on ubuntus terminal and all my settings stook. sorry for the rambling but yall have no idea of how stoked i am im probably going to make kde my default desktop now lol
I'm just having trouble getting ADB to recognize my phone. Also it seems Samsung didn't include a config file for the kernel to add things like overclocking etc.. Unless its hidden somewhere else?

I have the source just not too sure how to utilize it in Ubuntu, like I said I'm learning as I go. I tried doing an adb pull from my phone for the config file in windows and I get the error "file or directory does not exist" however it did work when I tried it with my Acer A500...
Is there a config.gz included in the source somewhere? I've been reading about something called defconfig but there are numerous references to that within the source.
If I can find that file I feel like building our own kernel would be infinitely easier... Maybe I'm too optimistic..
i actually recocmend installing linux mint first a lot more stuff works out of the box with it but if you like unity just search for ubuntu in the software manager and u can install it over mint.
Just as an FYI, you are likely not going to be able to use Ubuntu 11.10 to build the Continuum kernel. You'll need to use either 10.04 (LTS) or 10.10 to get the proper build tools. Also, getting git to work should be as simple as installing it. I believe it is under git-core or similar. You should have a look at the page for setting up a build environment for AOSP on what to install and such, as it is a pretty good starting point.
Minty Fresh
I tried installing Mint over Unity with no success. All of the other desktop environments work, but not Mint. I wonders why.
u need to install the mint live cd first then one youve got everything update install ubuntu u can search for it in the package manage or get it in terminal
i believe the command is sudo apt-get ubuntu-desktop

Anyone know what defconfig the Continuum uses? There are about 100 different defconfigs within the kernel source. Does the Continuum have a codename or something?
P.S. everything seems to be working fine in Ubuntu 11.10.

It should be listed in the readme with the source, but it should be something like "garnett_defconfig"

That is only a tutorial on how to unpack boot.img, not kernel. The boot.img *contains* the kernel and ramdisk, but you cannot directly edit the kernel. Some people have edited the kernel with a hex editor, but that is very hacky and not everything can be edited that way.
To download tytung's kernel source, make a directory, and download the kernel source there.
Code:
git clone >insert link to git repo here<
and if tytung makes any updates/changes to his repo, you can use
Code:
git pull
while cd'd to the directory the kernel is in
I learned how to compile my first kernel by cross referencing these two guides:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Building_Kernel_from_source and
http://forums.androidcentral.com/ht...how-build-your-own-kernel-package-source.html
Of course, this is not a complete guide, and I assume you have downloaded the andorid source and all the tools before.
OOPS! :cyclops:

[DEV] CM10.1 builds | help needed adding features | "4.2.2 Revival Team"

Hi,
I synced the CM10.1 source last weekend. I mucked about with the kernel. I pointed it to Christopher83's custom toolchain. I built it. It works. I'm content.
However my plan was to revive 4.2.2 and actually ADD to it, otherwise you could just go and download the zip which the Andromadus team uploaded. Unfortunately I've discovered that I'm completely incompetent when it comes to firstly finding things to add, secondly finding the commit, and then thirdly trying to cherry pick and apply the commit so it works. I haven't really got to stage 3 yet.
So here's my suggestion: could someone please work with me or if syncing sources etc. is not possible, at least help me by being knowledgeable enough to know some good features, point me to the commits, and help me fix conflicts so that I can apply them successfully. Therefore I either want a team, the 4.2.2 revival team as it were, or someone or some people to help me if they can't directly interact with the sources. Don't worry if you can't build for whatever reason: if you can sync specific repos, e.g. settings, frameworks base, and modify them, and push them, so that I can build the ROM, that's fine. Anyone who helps at all will be deemed equally if not more important than myself, as I expect I'll ultimately just end up being the builder.
Thanks very much for your support.
I can help you with that. Tell me when you start your project and what errors did you get
Best Regards,
MarcoMarinho

Thanks firstly I thought a simple thing to do would be to add the recent app screen ram bar from SlimBean, but I can't find the commit anywhere in the SlimRoms github. Perhaps you know where it is or can find it for me, then I could cherrypick it and we could fix the conflicts together and we'd have our first unofficial CM10.1 ROM with additional features!

Yep, as you know I synced the CM10.1 source a while ago so I used repo init --reference to sync the PA jellybean-legacy sources. Thanks for helping
paste this in a folder and title it
local_manifests
then add it to your .repo folder in ROM directory
I commented out a few things you may need to add, and there is possibly more but i dont have time to look into it all right now. just start with this, repo sync, and then build and check for errors
best of luck!
damn.... giving me uknown file, had to zip it first, so unzip the contents!

but I can look into this vision.adds business, I don't think it will be necessary as this will place need files in the proper directories in your source code for you, I assume that's what the vision.adds would do?

Here's the bit from their guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30958881&postcount=2 I'm not sure what it does though. I'm completely clueless about that whole post actually. I think it just syncs stuff after a sync.. or something. I don't know why though, isn't that what a local manifests file is for?
hmm... it looks like there will be a bit more to make than just the local_manifests
but i would attempt this first and if it doesnt work than follow the direction in that post as there me be a special way needed to build for pa, which i never have tried to build
most of what they are after will get pulled from local_manifests folder and placed appropriately. but at the same time... never used ./rom-build.sh before so this may be specific to pa, as in you need to follow their steps....
eh, just give it a try, if it doesnt work ill help you create those json files and build it the way laid out in their guide!

Isn't easy, you need to add more repos to configure it for our phone.
This is very diferent:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45827346&postcount=3467
As I said before, you need extra repos than CM needs. You can talk to the dev that made the SlimBean for our phone, as it's based on AOSP he needed to configure it as well.

[GUIDE] How to Compile Your Own CM11/CM12/AOSP Kernel

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..

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".

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!

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).

my device is build using prebuilt kernel so any compile kernel wont work...but now they are build with this kernel source so compile kernel work
thanks bro...
and one thing bro... i m new to kernel development so how can i optimize kernel
i know about and can add governors and use custom toolchain but i don't know about o2 or o3 optimization etc and all
sorry if i m being too much

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?
