Hello everyone,
I'm interested in building my own ROM for my phone and would love to build directly from AOSP source. I've done some research about setting up the build environment and everything, but unfortunately all guides I have read and found is for the Nexus set of devices. I have also read about cooking and building from CM, AOKP, RootBox, ect... But I would much rather build straight from AOSP.
Can anyone give me some tips/links on where I can start?
Thanks!
Re: [Q] Where should I start to build from AOSP
Google has a bunch of great information on the AOSP website. Guides and everything.

I am aware, I have been primarily searching Google but the only results I find are for other phones. I don't seem to find any information for this phone, and that's what I'm looking for. =)

I don't think you're quite understanding me. The main aosp website has a section that tells you all you need to know about how android is built from the ground up and how to get started doing that.
Edit: at least it did when I started looking into it. Haven't been to that site in a while.

I found somewhere in a thread here in xda someone had put together a pdf that explained how to develop specifically for the I747. Search around. I've been trying to look for the thread but have had no luck so far

Your motivation gave me the will to find it lol. Knowing that it was there I spent about an hour searching and combing these forums to find it, and I finally did! =D
Wasn't the title I was expecting it so I probably overlooked it a few times lol.
Understanding, Modifying and Building the I747
Thanks a lot man! Ton of good information I get to look over now lol.

As the title says, can anyone help me or lead me to themeing or writing codes for these roms, building my own Rom , apk, kernels or anything that relates. I would like to know how its done and if I can help to community out in any way. Take a big interest in this. Thanks

I'd like to start poking around a bit with the Android source; but had a few questions and was hoping someone could point me in the right direction.
I just watched XDA's blog regarding compiling Android, but it was all for devices that are made for the native code - and as we all know, the Evo is not one of those.
So I figured before I jump into this and go through all the trouble of setting things up and all, I wanted to ask - what would I need to do differently to compile a flashable zip for my Evo? Obviously I can't go straight from the 4.0.3 source, so where would I be able to find a compatible repository for the Evo?
If I could find something that would work to begin with without any tinkering then that would be great (And then I could break it later while I learn and play around a bit )
Search for a thread in the dev forum by lithid-CM. Its a guide and a good place to start.
Good luck.

Read through the ROMS posted and find one with features that fit your wants. Some are performance driven, and some are customization driven. Only you know what your looking for. Start reading threads in the development forums.

Well around here you'll find out, That what tolerated nothing. It's nothing personal against you.
O yeah I know just gotta get used to these forums. Yeah I found some stockish Tom's with features I want. Triune 2 and nastolgia are the 2 that caught my attention. I want a good kernel to use and found one that has oc which would be nice.

Dude, stop it, we are not going to answer anything on this thread. After being chastised you still find ways to come back and now put forward requirements for your perfect ROM, for the community to hunt or build for you? Classy...

My ROM is the greatest of all!!
No. Not really. :laugh:
The greatest ROM of all is the one you build yourself.
All ROMs are great to each of the members using it.
You will need to make a backup and try each until one suits YOU
Everybody uses their phone differently so they cannot decide for you
This is why these threads get closed

True..during my newbie days I was frequently getting lost.
Especially cuz my device had no subforum at that point of time.
Anyway..I'm sure u'll have fun here.
Ciao!
So can someone explain why there's two different development threads for the same device? An original and a regular? I'm not new to xda nor rooting but the two threads for development caught me of guard. Thanks a bunch and sorry but i didn't find the answer through the search function.

The Original Development thread is for ROMs built straight from source I believe, strictly AOSP roms. The regular development thread is for stock ROMs, AOSP, and everything else.

Cool, this confirms my half assed assessment :silly: I'm coming from the nexus s4g forums so any recommendations on a pure google/nexus rom if any for this device? hopefully stable:fingers-crossed:
thanks for answering my question so quickly.
