I want to compile CWM for a kernel i like but every tutorial i find tells me use repo and sync with CyanogenMod github or something like that. Well every site i go to to find a way to get repo has a broken link to the site. So is there a way to compile CWM from sources without repo? Or can anyone show me a like to a repo download for Ubuntu 12.04? I mainly just want to compile CWM to change the color and add an AROMA File Manager option to it.

I would like to build my i9000's kernel but there are problems
I've installed ubuntu 9.10.
As you know, i could download the source code from the web
In that there are codes for making kerne
and also there is a script, named build_kernel, which makes me be able to build the kernel.
At first, i installed sourcery toolchain and then modified the build_kernel.sh
Because the instruction said i should change toolchain's directory and prefix
And finally i built it writing './build_kernel.sh'.
It seemd to be working but there were so many errors
And the zimage file was small, it's only 2.1MB
I tried to flash that kernel but it made my phone go black.
Can anyone help me please?
What should i do?
How did some people make such great kernels? Sorry im newbie.

check few threads behind you ... it is illustrated in the links.
So I pretty much would like to start building my own kernels and Roms from AOSP, but not sure where to start. I have downloaded the SDK already, and started downloaded some file with git and these commands:
git clone https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/omap
cd omap
git checkout origin/android-omap-tuna-3.0-mr0
but the guides I've been reading don't offer much more help. And then there is a toolchain of some sort? I can get my way around linux fairly well and have built my own kernels about a year and a half ago for my Vibrant, but took a completely different course.
Was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction, thanks!
You're on the right track. Use Linux ubuntu, install all the packages, the Android tool chain, then just clone the aokp kernel like you showed. But you had the wrong repo link. Go to team kangs github page, go to the nexus kernel, then at the top will be their git link in a box.
Git clone "link"
Then just run the make command in terminal. Make sure you navigated yo the downloaded kernel folder.

Thanks a lot, will try that. The link on their page is AOSP?

The guy is asking us on how to clone AOSP tuna kernel tree, and you tell him to clone teamKang kernel project?
@op, no, you dont have the incorrect url. Clone from there, then checkout branch android-omap-3.0.
Type:
'make tuna_defconfig'
'make -j4'
You'll then have a zimage in arch/arm/boot, which you'll need to merge with a compatible ramdisk (either by fastboot or manually).

AOSP kernel for HTC Explorer/Pico
Can you tell me how to build aosp kernel for htc explorer?

Just do the same thing, but instead sync the htc kernel rather than the nexus. Go search and find out if source code has been released for that phone.
Then just run the make command.
Somebody call 911, we've been hijacked
Note: 'make tuna_defconfig' is for maguro, i dont know what is the name of default config file for the htc, why should we? User should refer to htc explorer subforum @xda or to kernel documentation.

I'm studying how to build a rom.
I already downloaded cm12 source.
Then I have to edit the roomservice.xml but I don't know what to write there.
I'm following this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292018

Roomservice overrides default manifest. if you want just build cyanogenmod there's no need to edit it. If you want replace one package with another you should first remove project.
http://dev.mordesku.pl/experimental/geehrc-roomservice.xml here is my roomservice used to build madness mod.
After create or modify any local manifest you should sync repo with "repo sync" command.
Thank you for answer
Hello Fellow developer and programmer, I'm building a custom by using Ressurection Remix as a base, While I'm initializing the repo an error occurred, How to solve that. The Error is repo is not reccoginzsed as an internal or external command, I have installed the repo, thanks for the reading the post

I'm working on porting one myself. Repo is available within the Ubuntu apt-get repository. That can be a simpler way to install. However I'd suggest the curl & chmod method method for the latest binary as well as getting good experience.

Follow the instructions to add the repository, then do an initial repo sync, I hope you have plenty of drive space cos some roms can take up many GB
The manifest instructions even link you to the guide for setting up git and repo
Ubuntu is usually the best platform for this, it might work in Windows subsystem for Linux but I've never tried so couldn't tell you.
Haven't built a rom for a while but you used to add device tree urls in .repo/local_manifests/roomservice.xml, it's probably still done the same way. (.repo is a hidden folder by default so, in Ubuntu, you would press CTRL+H to get it to show up)
If you don't know how to install repo then you will likely need to do a LOT of reading before you can even think of firing off a build.
