I recently heard that FXP will stop developing for the whole Xperia 2011 series, when just around the corner, Android 4.2 was standing with a bag of goodies, for which FXP has a valid reason, that these devices lack ram to support features of 4.2. I decided to build 4.2 from source for 2011 devices, for those who'd want to try out the latest version of android. I can handle compiling ROM. But need some help with kernel. if you can help out, or if you wanna be a part of the project. Leave a comment at this thread or PM me. After public release, Dev's can submit their patches / fixes for the ROM to that thread....
I do this because i don't want us to be stuck with stock based ROMs forever and because 4.2 looks awesome . All in all, Thankyou FXP for your work.
one thing that our xperia 2011 devices (especially neo/v ) lack is kernel developers ,we dont have linux 3.0 kernel which which would have made the user experience of JB 4.1 or 4.2 better , linux 3.0 supports many advanced features of JB ,but due to lack of these kernels our user experience will be incomplete , building & testing out these kernels will take hell of time and patience.
i hope this doesn't disappoint's any user or dev just a suggestion
linux 3.0 kernels would be awesome on our phones
i wish you all the best for taking such a great project

2. Jader, Maxio, pandemic are all greats devs but they build themes / stock, and I need help with kernel building
3. I was planning to ask FXP for some sources

Hey. Why cant u ask nobodyatall. Aka naa. He has brought minicm10 to 2010 xperia Minis. Which is more stable than our cm10. I can help you with patches once you start compiling Rom. Cheers.

I would like to help, though I'm not of that much use YET.
Right now I'm mainly into developing apps, currently learning myself the basics of Kernel Development, I'm also capable of compiling Android.
Going to mess around a bit today, haven't compiled Android for my Xperia Pro yet.
Dympy.
Ok so.. Half way through compiling it failed, because of low storage or something. I read up online and found out that I need atleast 30gigs for compiling, where as I only have around 15-20 free on my laptop, lol unlucky I guess.. So project delayed - until I get more storage for my pc or if someone compiles for me if I give them the sources (if want 4.2 faster). And as for the kernel, instead of building a kernel (which may take long). I'll be modifying the current JB kernel for 4.2

I'm almost done with re-setting up my Linux Install, it got wiped when I installed Windows 8 on my laptop..
Anyway, I have about 800GB of storage left, if you sent me a PM with some directions and such, I'll try to compile when the install is done.

Hi there
As u all may know PA 3.0 got released for nexus prime 7,10,4 along with the source. So i was hoping someone could bring this beautiful rom to our devices..
for some info :
news : http://www.xda-developers.com/android/paranoid-android-3-released-for-four-nexus-devices/
source : https://github.com/paranoidandroid
Also wanted to know if there's any pure AOKP 4.2 rom ...
Thanks
I second this motion!
I would love for PA 3.0 to be ported to this awesome tab
Official and unofficial PA members are plenty. So i guess eventually we'll get it.
Sent from my GT-P3113 using xda premium
AFAIK there's no source ported to run on tab2 yet, but it's meaning of time.
Why? Cause now PA is based in AOSP instead of CM. But as I said before, it's just meaning of time.
Yeah...it would be great to have the rom!
Why is there no AOSP 4.2.X rom for tab 2
Hi there
I wanted to know why is there no 4.2.X AOSP rom cuz aosp and cm combo roms are some of the best roms integrating the features of both of them.
Yet even on AOSP site there is no 4.2.X release.. which means there is no AOSP 4.2.X support for tab2 .... correct me if i'm wrong.
Hope this helps

1)The galaxy tab 2 is not an aosp device this forces devs to have to modify the source code in order for the device specific things to work like drivers
2) the cyanogenmod team does most of it's initial testing on samsung devices that's why we have CM roms
If someone more knowledgeable than me comes around feel free to correct me
ya ... i heard that psycodelico , who shared the latest 2.99 currently doesnt have linux machine so we may wait till he get one . or somebody will develop it
So anybody developing aokp/paranoid android for tab 2???

Hi All!
I have been trying to compile a Kernel for Android from Kernel.org Source. Avidly awaiting a Nexus 7 I got straight to work. I have created a zImage. I have been trying to document the process but rather than type it again I have been doing it here. If someone with a Nexus 7 wants to give this a go I would be very much grateful. This is an ongoing process. I have included the file and necessary instructions here...
It looks like I cant post external URL's .... YET! If you want to post here or PM Me I will send you the links.
If someone could test this for me it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
I'd like to help. How do you intend to test the kernel though? (since I'm not sure if it would work in Android, but of course you're probably more experienced than me)

Basically people flash it and then test it. People can provide their own benchmarks if they want. Against their previous Kernel versions etc. I have a sort of active thread on the Neowin Forums about this but I cant post links yet on XDA. I also got my VPS setup today to build and host the files.

Okay then, I can do that. I assume you can PM links?
You might be able to state the URL address in your post for your kernel. I'd test it and I guess others may also.
Hi All,
I have someone from Neowin who is going to post the links for me.
At the moment my guide and files are all disjointed I am trying to organize it better.
Great idea! I'll look around your thread @neowin.
What supposedly differences are there from the native android kernel and one compiled using the code from kernel.org?
Personally I just like playing with Bleeding Edge code. You would get all the latest features from source as well as bug fixes most end users wouldn't see. Performance is to be determined, Battery life and CPU performance etc. Its also quite a little Niche that I like been a part of if it all works and comes off.
The kernel you're compiling most likely won't work if you don't even have the machine definitions nor the drivers for your nexus (seeing that you have taken the source directly from kernel.org)
The best of testing a new version would be to backport it but doing so takes an incredible amount of time and considerable skills.

I have used the Prebuilt ToolChain from git and also the defconfig to build the kernel from Google. I have created a boot.img this should make it easier. I am just waiting a Nexus 7 myself to test this anyway.

You need to have proper board files, proper drivers (device-specific ones) and tons more. I don't think it will work without those. Then chances are it's not going to compile properly; it will throw tons of errors. After you get it to compile, you have to get it to boot. After you get it to boot, you have to get it fully-functional (not necessary if this is a test kernel). So unless you have gone through it all, I don't think it'll work.
BUT I may be wrong.
It compiles no problem, That's what I am wanting people to test :good:

Hi!
Well I have not been on this for a few days however I set up a quick and dirty VPS. Looks like the process fell over. I have restarted it and published any files people might find useful on here.

All actual builds are in the build folder.

Do you have your 3.4 Kernel? Do you have notes how you built it?
Edit: Updated to include 3.13rc8
I have done some more merging from latest Mainline and Flo Kernel from Google. Its building as we speak. Time to head to Tesco.
Hopefully what I have done will get rid of a compile time error I was having.
Has anyone got the ones I made previous to boot. I have my Nexus 7 on the way as of today so I will be testing it on my own sooooon!! :good:

A bit more easy to remember. There are some test builds and experimental stuff on there too. I might do requests if anyone wants me to make a build for their device let me know. Rather than the Nexus 7 2013. I only did that because thats the device I am getting

cyanogenmod hasnt any working device specific configuration and code for yuga in cm12 at the moment.
i tried using pabx yuga.xml and TheMuppets blobs, but got errors with conflicting repos I couldnt resolve, may be due to that I have only basic knowledge about all of that.
I guess as for now, we have to wait until CM starts building nightlies (a leaked document says dez. first) or use pabx/thomas AOSP port for yuga, which can be used as a daily driver already.
@hutilicious i'm already using @pabx ASOP port
you seems to be crazy over lollipop anyway for CM12 as far as I know the popping sound will be finally be fixed it was due to qcom introducing of deep buffer, anyway as far as I know that's all but you can expect nightly before 2015
hi friends,
do you know, our nexus 4s get android Oreo by nitrogen or lineage or other roms? if yes, I know stable android Oreo version will release mid august, when we get custom rom?
we can't know this
When it comes fyi: asking for an ETA is kinda rude on xda
wait till October or November probably for a decently stable ROM
Excitedly expect first android Oreo Rom for nexus 4 on september 17
and first 32bit snapdragon android oreo port, fully work
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73494285&postcount=1356
so, now we have very big chance for our nexus 4...
and first nexus 5 android oreo port, booting and wifi working now, one similiar devices too
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73538437&postcount=6286
for now has boot problem but after all the first nexus 4 oreo

Nice! At work and don't have my N4 to try it, but interested to hear how it is running, so I can try out when I get home. Is it mostly functional?
Can you share the device and kernel tree?

Just for my own curiosity, how do you know what changes need to be made to the device and kernel tree? Do you use officially supported device/kernel trees as a reference, or is there a guideline posted somewhere?

The kernel is the used one in 7.1.2 and I added the Binder changes... the device tree is fixed by trying to booting and fixing the errors showed in last_kmsg .

I as well got a semi-working O build, but was a bit short on time to work on it. Could we collaborate somewhere? Perhaps a hangouts group?
I've flashed from mako 7.12, kind of like upgrade from 7.12
