Noob needs help compiling Android Tv - Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers

Hi all,
I have a Firefly ROC-RK3399-PC (also called "Renegade Elite") dev board that I desperately want to turn into an Android TV 10 box. Firefly has a great how to on how to compile the stock Android 10: [Compile Android 10](http://wiki.t-firefly.com/en/ROC-RK3399-PC-PLUS/compile_android10.0_firmware.html), but not how to compile Android TV 10! Does Android TV require a special build option? A different repo source? Is it just a series of apps that have to be installed on top of the stock Android?
After googling my guts out for months I still have no clue.
I will be eternally grateful if anyone can explain how to compile Android TV 10 from source!
Thanks in advance!
-Dan

You can compile it from the AOSP source using lunch. However, Android TV will be basically useless without Gapps.

There are some devs always working on this in the development forum, you should browse around first.

{Q} Custom ROMS (AOSP/CM) for Galaxy A8 (SM-A800F)? Any possibility in Future??

Hello all
I was wondering if there will be AOSP/CM ROM for this device, not a single ROM is available and no dev is interested to work on such a great device.
Such a totally crap device, still stucked on 5.1.1 since launch, no dev is interested in the development either, where android n announced already, we are still waiting for Android M update, i wasted my money on such a **** device, will never buy a sammy mid range in future, m totally fed up with this
I think because there are few developer with that phone and they can't test their work. You can port ROMs such as CM to you phone by your self. There are tons of guides and forums. All u need is a linux OS (such as ubuntu, debian and others) and sources.

yep, I'm on kali and I use windows 10 to play games, so the only thing is: take care when partitioning. After you installed ubuntu there is a bootloader called "GRUB" and there you can choose if you want to boot windows or linux

Anyone have resources for porting ROMs?

I've been wanting to get into porting ROMs, although I'm not too sure how to go about it. I have a few in mind I'd like to attempt to bring to our device. Does anyone have any resources/links/videos on how to go about porting? Everything would be greatly appreciated
Which ROMs do you have in mind? I might be able to help.
P.S: You can look in the LineageOS porting instructions for our device, if that's going to help you!

A few of the ones I've been thinking would be a good fit for this phone is the Pure Nexus Project, Slim7 (Want to get a fully working build of that going, love Slim7 haha), OmniRom, and lastly a MIUI port once I get the basics down.
I use macOS, but also have a virtual machine for both Windows 7 & 10 and Ubuntu and Fedora so any guides across any platforms help.

I know different ROMs use different structures for device trees, but here's a guide to compiling Lineage 14.1 to the G4 Play. This guide is made for Ubuntu 14.04/15.04/16.04, but Fedora might be able to work as well as long as you can get the proper packages installed during the prerequisite steps:
http://wiki.lineageos.org/harpia_build.html
It may not help much with other ROMs, since I'm not sure if the other ROMs support using CM/Lineage based device trees to build, but this will give you the basic instructions on how to download source, get the proprietary blobs/device tree you need, and compile everything to a working zip.
As for actually making device trees for other ROMs to use during compilation, that I don't know myself, and was never really able to find out.
I build on Fedora. If you're using Fedora 25, use these steps to set up a build environment: https://gist.github.com/sultanqasim/09f19221c67c71edd099eb86c6a92467

Can I run AndroidTV on armbian?

Hey folks,
I've an old banana pi m2 berry which is working with armbian.
I just found an Tutorial to install Android TV on an Raspberry via LineAgeOS.
I tried LineAgeOS but it seems to won't work on my Banana Pi.
Any fast solution? Also would be fine to switch the OS of my Device again. Just want this for streaming etc on my TV.
I'm not an expert, but my guess is it's unlikely as Android TV is a modified version of Android, and Android is a long ways away from its original source of Linux. The reason Konstakang used Lineage is likely because it's based on android.
Maybe I find some other android Version which works on my device, thanks for the hint.

Hi! It's been almost one and a half month since I began experimenting with this TV box. Still can't get to Android recovery mode. We can work together to achieve this goal! Regards! Sebastian.
