[TUTORIAL][HOWTO] Building CyanogenMod 7 for the HTC Thunderbolt [FINAL]

How to build your own CyanogenMod 7:
Install the Build Packages
Install using the package manager of your choice:
For 32-bit & 64-bit systems:
Code:
git-core gnupg flex bison gperf libsdl1.2-dev libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.6-dev squashfs-tools build-essential zip curl libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev sun-java6-jdk pngcrush schedtool
For 64-bit only systems:
Code:
g++-multilib lib32z1-dev lib32ncurses5-dev lib32readline5-dev gcc-4.3-multilib g++-4.3-multilib
NOTE: gcc-4.3-multilib g++-4.3-multilib is no longer available for Ubuntu 11.04 64-bit, but should still build without issue.
NOTE: On Ubuntu 10.10, and variants, you need to enable the parter repository to install sun-java6-jdk:
Code:
add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ maverick partner"
Create the Directories
You will need to set up some directories in your build environment.
To create them:
Code:
mkdir -p ~/bin
mkdir -p ~/android/system
Install the Repository
Code:
curl "http://php.webtutor.pl/en/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/repo" > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
PATH=~/bin:$PATH
Now enter the following to initialize the repository:
Code:
cd ~/android/system/
repo init -u git://github.com/ProTekk/android.git -b gingerbread
repo sync -j16
Copy proprietary files
Code:
git clone git://github.com/koush/proprietary_vendor_htc.git ~/android/system/vendor/htc
Download RomManager
NOTE: This only needs to be done when an update to RomManager is released. If you are-up-to date, you may skip to Building CyanogenMod.
Download RomManager which is needed by the build:
Code:
cd ~/android/system/device/htc/mecha
~/android/system/vendor/cyanogen/get-rommanager
Check for updates
First, check for updates in the source:
Code:
cd ~/android/system/
repo sync
Configure Build & Compile
Now, the environment must be configured to build and the ROM compiled, from code, for the Thunderbolt.
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh && brunch mecha
Now for the lazy people who don't want to type all that crap:
Download and run the new script: http://fzservers.com/newmecha.sh
You can do whatever you like while it runs. If you have never created a CyanogenMod repo on your local system then go out to dinner, grab some coffee, call your mother or do something time consuming because this will be a LONG wait depending on your Internet connection and system performance. The build will run as soon as the script sets everything up and again it is LOOOONG depending on the performance of your system.
Everything will be located in
Code:
~/android/system
Once it's done you can locate the flashable .zip in the "out" directory of your CyanogenMod repo. Happy crackflashing to all!

Fixed an issue with the build script. Please redownload it and try again.

Code:
ccache -M 50G
Building a ROM
Code:
cd ~/android/system
Make sure your in sync with the repo, you will do this every time right before you build.
Code:
repo sync
Code:
source build/envsetup.sh
Code:
lunch
Pick the number of the rom you would like to build
I maintain the 700,300,m7vzw so those are the only ones I can help with
the -j* is how may cpu cores you would like to give to the build process
So -j2 would tell the build process that you have 2 core you would like to use to build
Code:
make clean && make bacon -j2
The flash-able zip will be in the out folder of your build directory
Code:

[GUIDE]Compiling ROMs from Compressed Sources

I have recieved many messages about how to compile ROMs from compressed sources , here i present the guide
First Lets start with the download links
Download Thanks to @DigiGoon @vaibhavpandeyvpz @kD @MSF Jarvis and @regalstreak for their works
for more info u can see the link above to understand things better
Now After Downloading the sources what to do
*extarct it using terminal as said in the above link
after that the main thing , installation of main packages
1)Installing Java Development Kit (JDK)
For Kitkat
Installation of Java V6
Open The Terminal and Paste following Command
a) This will Remove the wrong Java JDK from Ubuntu 13.10
Code:
sudo apt-get purge openjdk-\* icedtea-\* icedtea6-\*
b) Enter the Following Command and This will Install JDK
Code:
wget https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team/+archive/ubuntu/java/+files/oracle-java6-installer_6u45-0%7Ewebupd8%7E8_all.deb sudo dpkg -i oracle-java6-installer_6u45-0~webupd8~8_all.deb wget https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team/+archive/ubuntu/java/+files/oracle-java6-set-default_6u45-0%7Ewebupd8%7E8_all.deb sudo dpkg -i oracle-java6-set-default_6u45-0~webupd8~8_all.deb
c)Check The Java Version Installed
Code:
java -version
For Lollipop/Marshmallow Required Java Version is 7 (java 8 not yet supported)
To Install Java V7
Code:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk
NOTE: For Ubuntu 16.04 user use this command
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:openjdk-r/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk
*************JAVA INSTALLATION COMPLETES*****************
2)Installation Of Required Tools
Enter The Following Command
Code:
sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg ccache lzop flex bison gperf build-essential zip curl zlib1g-dev zlib1g-dev:i386 libc6-dev lib32ncurses5 lib32z1 lib32bz2-1.0 lib32ncurses5-dev x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev:i386 libreadline6-dev:i386 lib32z-dev libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 libgl1-mesa-dev g++-multilib mingw32 tofrodos python-markdown libxml2-utils xsltproc readline-common libreadline6-dev libreadline6 lib32readline-gplv2-dev libncurses5-dev lib32readline5 lib32readline6 libreadline-dev libreadline6-dev:i386 libreadline6:i386 bzip2 libbz2-dev libbz2-1.0 libghc-bzlib-dev lib32bz2-dev libsdl1.2-dev libesd0-dev squashfs-tools pngcrush schedtool libwxgtk2.8-dev python
NOTE:if u get broken dependencies error use following command and then above command
Code:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
**************All DONE*****************************
Now compiling and setting up files
after all the above
download all ur device related sources like device tree, kernel source, vendor files(if present)
Now where to keep those sources?
So, here i take cm13 and ASUS ZenFone 4 as example
The DEVICE TREE goes here:
cm13/device/asus/a400cg
Explaination:
asus is the company name u can know it from the .zip of the device tree u downloaded
*e.g.: android_device_asus_a400cg-master.zip
this says the directory and name of folders itself
device / asus / a400cg /
The Vendor Files Here:
cm13/vendor/asus/a400cg/
The Kernel Source (if not using prebuilt kernel) Here:
cm13/kernel/asus/a400cg/
***************SETTINGS FILES COMPLETE**************
Now Compiling:
open up terminal and cd to cm13 directory
Type :
. build/envsetup.sh or source build/envsetup.sh as ur choice
then
brunch a400cg
and finished wait for it to complete.
Holla u have compiled ROM from compressed source.
