Hi to all,
I have been testing ROMs for the Redmi 2 Pro, a device I acquired recently and there is one ROM nobody has built: Paranoid Android.
So, this is a request to compile Paranoid Android for the Redmi 2 and, if there are no intentions to do it, is there a reliable source/help on how to build Paranoid Android? The only source I have found is here @xda, but the guide is for Paranoid Android 3.x and I considered it too old to start something.
PS: I'm experienced using Linux (+10 years), right now I am dual booting Debian Sid / Linux Mint 18 which must be fully-compatible with Ubuntu 16.04, I have compiled kernels for my personal computers but not for an android device.
Since you are willing to devote your time for this effort(thanking you,first of all)
this is the github repo of AOSPA(https://github.com/AOSPA)
this includes the manifest (https://github.com/AOSPA/manifest) which will help you to build a PA ROM
PM me for any further queries

hello all I'm thinking about building My own set of ROMs for the N7 And N4 based on the 4.2.2_r1 source code now how do I include such things as pie control reboot menu and other things like that and would Ubuntu 10.04 be a good version to compile on
Does anyone have a recent or mako specific guide on how to build Paranoid Android builds, I'd like to cherry pick a few smaller features into the already powerful ROM.
Would following the OmniRom guide and basically replacing the Omni values with the correct Paranoid Android values work out? Or is there other specific stuff I need to do?
I've got Ubuntu 13.04 & currently building OmniRom whenever I see there's a bit of a decent update but other then that I'm pretty much a noob .

Basically just clone the PA source, add the mako specific stuff (kernel, device, and vendor from TheMuppets repo) and compile. If you have any other questions just ask in the thread a linked above.
Although I have used Android (phones & tablet) for about 4 years, I have only just started dipping my toes into the exciting world of rooting and mods. And so I have just wiped my Samsung Galaxy S3 and flashed the most recent Omnirom - a process which was so painless as to be almost pleasant!
It seems, however, that multiview/split screen is not available in this particular version of Omnirom (or if it is, it's so well hidden that I've not been able to find it!). So I'm wondering if it's possible to compile my own version of Omnirom from source, with just those parts of it I need. I used to compile linux kernels (before the days of loadable modules); can I do the same with Omnirom? That is, can I compile a version of Omnirom which might contain different fuctionailty that the nightly build?
Thanks!
It's pretty straightforward of you have a Linux box, and doable on Mac as well. There are great instructions on the OmniROM wiki. Plan on the source sync taking several hours (or overnight) the first time. Make sure you set up ccache so that subsequent builds go quickly.

Once you've built a straight-up version that works, you can branch and cherry-pick the multi-window patches from the OmniROM Gerrit instance.

Hi,
I want to learn more about Android kernel development so I'm trying to compile AOSP (Android 7) from source for my Nexus 7. I have prior experience doing Linux kernel development but the real hurdle for me is the Android build environment.
I have checked out android-7.1.2_r39 with the proprietary blobs for Nexus 7 and I've made it to the point where I need to choose a target.
However because I'm trying to compile Android 7, `full_grouper-userdebug` does not show up on the build target list when running `lunch`.
Is it enough to grab the /device/asus/grouper directory from a tree where it is included and add that to my AOSP tree or is there something else I need to do to compile Android 7 for this device?
Hello,
For those interested in the original kernel source code for the SM-T813 :
As I am learning how to make ports for Android, I am trying to train on the original sources of the Linux kernel for the SM-T813.
After several weeks of research, I couldn't find the origin of the different kernel repositories.
Also on https://opensource.samsung.com, it was impossible to find the sources. So I contact them at the end of January to have an access to this sources...
... And they are now available !
You can download them on https://opensource.samsung.com (search SM-T813 at mobile phone on release center) or on my repository at https://github.com/Akipe/android_kernel_samsung_gts210vewifi_original_samsung
It is based on the T813XXS2BTK3 firmware with Android 7 Nougat.
I will see to ask for sources of similar tablets.
Will this help with porting new Adnoid version to these tablets?

I don't think so,
Kernel sources for this tablet already exist, and are ported to newer versions.
It is more useful for those who want start from scratch, and want to inspect the unmodified source code.
But my goal would be to successfully create from scratch for the SM-T813 LineageOS 14.1 (Android 7); and then try to move to the latest versions.
Since I am a beginner, I still have a lot to learn, and I don't have much time, so we will see
