Hello Everyone,
Few days back i decided to learn to compile/build rom by myself. i got old dell inspiron laptop....installed ubuntu 13.10 on it as only OS. it has 4 gb RAM and i3 processor....as i am just learning i think these specs are ok.
i setup building environment following this instruction in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2100673
as a beginner...i want to start just by compiling rom from the source...so for that i choose AOKP.
but i get these error(please see attached pic) and i dont understand why....can anyone please help me out here....I am just learning now so please bare with me...
Thank you in advance

To answer the question that everyone is thinking as they click on this thread... Yes, I am a noob.
Anyway, I downloaded the Android Kitchen and installed it on a Linux Ubuntu Virtual Machine on my Macbook using VMWare Fusion and i watched a video from theunlockr, but all it really let me do was add in apps, change the rom name and give it a few features but no visual customizations... If i posted a link of the "My ROM" no one would be able to tell a difference in the rom i planned on starting from.
Let me know if there is a different way to create that is actually making ROMs or customizing the ROM in it's entirety instead of small unnoticeable features, let me know if I'm just doing something wrong in my Android Kitchen and let me know if theres an easy way to develop ROMs on Mac without Virtual Machines. (The last one isn't a big worry because linux is very lightweight and runs fine on my computer but please help me on the other two questions)
Thanks in advance,

i dont really knw if its out there,bt i couldnt find it
i want to run redhat on my HD2 as m learning linux on it in my college,i found plenty of guides for several destros here,bt i couldnt find anythin abt redhat
now since i dont wanna ask any of the already busy xda developers to make one just so that i want it, can any1 PLEASE upload an universal guide to run ANY linux distro on hd2?? it wld be helpful to every1
thank you very much(for all the things my hd2 can do ryt now,and will be able to do in future coz of xda )
First, you need RedHat support ARM
Second, compile your own kernel...
ok thanks,so ubuntu that these mighty helpful developers of xda have uploaded was compatible with arm7??
i can try my hand on kernel i think....
Sorry for late answer, but this might be helpful to someone.
HTC-Linux wiki has guide on running any gnu/linux you want on HD2. You just need to replace Ubuntu rootfs with one of your desired distro.
(I would post a link but have written too few posts. So just google "htc-linux.org" and search for page Ubuntu/Leo)

Hello guys!
You may laugh at this but after I got my U8800 pro last week and done with all the modding (rooting,installing custom roms), I decided I would like to make a custom rom for my phone. I have in mind to make an ICS rom cuz I don't see a really active development for the U8800 pro. I know it's hard,but I am really good with computers (considering my age). I can use windows pretty well and have a good knowledge of linux(have installed and used for some time ubuntu,opensuse and chakra linux). I have some basic knowledge of programming.I know python 3.2 and VB.Net 2010. I have searched a little and found guides about building ICS from source (all for ubuntu) but I get some errors in fresh installed ubuntu 11.10 64bit.
Do you have any guide/tutorial that would be good for me to study?
thanks in advance!

I know nothing about building custom ROMs, but my first advice to you is use Ubuntu 10.04 64bits... almost all tutorials are for this version of Ubuntu, as it is the recommended environment by google

Ubuntu/Linux dist is required to build a project from a source code, and it requires a pro to build and debug a project/ROM frm source! To make a simple/normal custom, you may even use Kitchen(in Cygwin for Windows) or even in Linux!
For ur question, Ubuntu is better choice!
Ubuntu is not a must,but its easy because it have the most tools preinstalled for this.

if you are not building from source all you need is
apktool
java jdk
android kitchen
cygwin (if using windows)
notepad++
winrar
There are many guides - best you do some searching for example

Well theming a custom ROM takes a lot of time and for completing the work on time you obviously gonna need some niggas to help you in your work.Well if you have a good internet connection then you can sync up sources and compile ROMs like Carbon,Pac or AOKP Kitkat for this device since we're getting closer to a stable CM11.There are a lot of guides on how to sync a ROM source code on the computer.Search down the threads and start syncing.
