IDEA : git repository

I find that many developers are working on porting android 2.1 or 1.6 vanila and it result in much duplicated work.
I was thinking of maybe setting up 2 git repositories one for 1.6 AOSP and 2.1 AOSP on which everyone can work on, improve and fix bugs.

That's a nice idea, im begging to look after a site to host the repositories...

We can use github for hosting or any other site. I'm interested in looking after the repositories too.
A centralized effort will always be better then a fragmented one.

If you have alot of money, then Github would be ok... But it costs $50/month for the package that is minimum for two sets of android source code...

Know any places where we can host the code?

Mod. edit: not dev related, moved to general

Gitorious and Github are both free and unlimited for open source projects.

We can use sourcefordge too. The offer svn and git repositories. So what about it folks, who would be interested?

I would be interested in this...

I think we should open a project on sourcefordge for android 2.2 with the first task being to get the new kernel (2.6.32) working on the tattoo.

It could host the long awaited universal froyo upgrade

That will be hard becuase the new kernel (2.6.32) is very big so we would need something like GRUB to boot it, from another partition than the boot partition...

If we disable enough modules the size should go down but that would mean it won't be universal any more.
There could be a regular version and a 'lite' version for Tattoo and older phones.

Wait wait wait.
I can play full divx movies smoothly so some seldom used modules could be stored on sd with no prob.

Josalaito, i'm working in cm 10.2 now, and i think we need a hard work because msm8x26 is not fully supported by cyanogen and we need to use 8960(The same happened in my old y300 cm doesnt support 8x25 and we use msm7x27a)

Hi, my username is debaj, I hope I can help anything as a geneal Android developer since I have no experience in ROM development except building Cyanogenmod for my old Nexus S

My Username on github is: denizkoekden

i think we go go ahead with ms8226 as config as motorola giving sources it will things easier for us to add stuff for msm8226 and make it full compatible

I think it's best to begin with msm8226 from the outset rather than trying to kang a different board
I'm seapoint on Git by the way. https://github.com/seapoint

My Moto G arrives Tomorrow
too bad I won't have time to do anything
I am Scrizz on github

Count me in. as for creating a kernel, device, hardware and properity tree. Github : calibrex
Problem is now, i've seen that the MotoG stands under MSM8226 and MSM8926 @ Wikipedia. Which one is the Phone now really using ?
I see josalaito did a bit of work on Github *thumbsup*

You didn't mention how you tried to do it, or what problems you ran into so no one can tell you what you did wrong or provide a solution to the compilation error you might have faced.
'There's a lot of threads already available all over XDA for helping with this, so please use XDA or google search extensively.

Hii... can u help us to give a specific link for porting ROM from the source (i.e PACMAN, slimbean, etc) and keeping CM11 as a base.
I couldn't find the best page where I get all thing for my ROM.
Thanks in advance.!:good:

k2wl's build CM from source is the best method, you just have to switch this line
HTML:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm-11.0
with the github link to the source of any custom ROM you want.
Like for getting RR source it would be
HTML:
repo init -u https://github.com/ResurrectionRemix/platform_manifest.git -b kitkat1
All ROMs actually provide you with a method to port their ROMs for your phone in their manifest.
Like for example, you feel like compiling Resurrection it's https://github.com/ResurrectionRemix/platform_manifest

Actually the more the folders, the more the data. So dats why. There are less folders in the beanstalk source than the cm source, so it will be about 10gb. I guess.

repo sync is soley there so you can resume.
you can break and close terminal at any time, when you use repo sync again, it will scan through your folder comparing everything what you have downloaded to the source folder on the git and then start downloading from where it left off

Android 6.0 is being uploaded to AOSP

Android 6.0 is being uploaded to AOSP:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/10/05/android-6-0-marshmallow-is-being-uploaded-to-aosp-right-now/
@Alberto97
 @Flashhhh
What do you think ? it will be difficult to port it over ?

Too early to say.

I hope I can find some custom rom after Android 6.0 release.....

The 2nd gen moto g is being updated via motorola to 6.0, the first and second gen motos are pretty much similar in every aspect part screen size and camera. Roms have been ported over from the 2nd gen to the 1st gen before so it maybe done again for 6.0.

Lets hope for the best...

I don't have any knowledge about building Android. But I have 2 questions:
Why the compile can fail ? There are no drivers ?
If compiles then we need to see if it's boots and if at least 2-3 things are working. like wifi, or something like that. I am just interested.

Millions of lines of code -> millions of possible reasons for failure.
Also, the closed source libraries (lib/hw/* and vendor/lib/*) could be incompatible and workarounds may need to be found and implemented.

If you compile it and it works then post it

This could take weeks or even months, not a few hours.

If anyone needs beta test I am available and only send a private message

first, the downloaded sourcecode was only about 2gb (normal AOSP sourcecode is more than 20gb)
then, they are still updating many repos, you can watch them update https://github.com/CyanogenMod

ok so then we have to wait at least 1-2 weeks to get Android 6.0 on our device...

Avoid the impatients
Lets avoid asking for builds and ETAs please, remember that devs have jobs or study to do, and sometimes being bothered about when they will release something could annoy them.
Rule 4

I'd be open for testing any kind of builds in the future, although I have the xt1031 boost variant but that might help out too for certain things

So our Moto G 2013 will receive the Android 6.0 with CyanogenMod 13 ?

for sure.

Any updates??
Anyone have any latest news regarding status of falcon in cm13?? As moto g2 already got a test build of cm13

Android n, and custom roms!

Seing android n just got out, would be able to port it to our device? Using cm13, as base rom? And what about sailfish os?

It would be interesting, but I don't thing someone will do this, its a preview.

No source code till like June-July and we don't even have an vanilla AOSP build yet to even act as a base for some Frankenstein action.

I'm waiting for miui. Android N won't be available to anything else than nexus before source release.

Men, CM 13 just came out with all features supported (LAF/Fingerprint) and you already ask for something new. Come on, please.

I think that the priority now should be get a stable cyanogenmod 13.

It would be better to port vanilla M and prepare an AOSP tree. From there collaborations can happen to speed it up and make our device even future proof and next can be enhanced to further builds of android. Having a bootable vanilla M will grant a working ramdisk and such instead of Frankenstein build which is hard to be a daily driver

Yes, and also more devlopment to Oneplus 2 please!

For your kind information guys, android n preview 1 source code is out. Check it out - https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest/+/android-n-preview-1 .
You can sync it using the repo tool, repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-n-preview-1 .
Good luck.
If anybody downloads it please let me know ?.
