Since I’ve seen many questions on how to build cyanogenmod 9 (CM9) from source for the Galaxy Nexus, but there isn’t a proper guide, I will attempt to write a small how-to. There already is a very good guide how to build ICS from source, but there are a few extra things you’ll have to do for CM9. I hope it will be useful, and if not, well, at least I’ve tried
LATEST UPDATE: August 20th - also added CM10
SETTING UP THE BUILD ENVIRONMENT
I highly recommend Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit for development or Linux Mint 13. It is possible to build on different linux distro’s, but I cannot cover all exceptions. (If you don’t have linux installed or are afraid to set up a dual boot, it is possible to build in a virtual environment –e.g. virtualbox-. Building in a virtual environment however, can be very slow. Also, 64 bit is recommended.)
Make sure java is installed! At the end of this post, I have written a small guide how to install java.
Set up adb and create proper udev rules
I will not write these steps down, but rather point you to some very nice and easy guides. It would be best to do this first, however, it is not completely necessary if you just want to build a fully functioning rom.
1) set up adb (follow this excellent guide)
2) set up udev rules which allow you to start adb without having to use sudo (follow this terrific tutorial)
Installing all necessary packages and set up repo (source)
Open a terminal and copy the following code:
Code:
sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential \
zip curl libc6-dev libncurses5-dev:i386 x11proto-core-dev \
libx11-dev:i386 libreadline6-dev:i386 libgl1-mesa-dev:i386 \
g++-multilib mingw32 openjdk-6-jdk tofrodos python-markdown \
libxml2-utils xsltproc zlib1g-dev:i386
WARNING: run the following commands as user (NOT as root) unless stated otherwise (e.g., when it explicitly shows ‘sudo’ before a command)!!!
Next, you’ll have to install repo to download the source. First we’re going to create a bin folder (1) in our home directory and include it in our path (2). Also, download the repo script (3) and make it executable (4). All from the command line:
Code:
mkdir ~/bin
PATH=~/bin:$PATH
curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
Okay, we’re done with the first part. So far it’s been similar to building pure AOSP.For CM, there will be some additional things you’ll have to do.
DOWNLOADING THE CM SOURCE
Create a directory (CM9 -or CM10-) for your working files:
Code:
mkdir CM9
cd CM9
and then initialize the main CM repo (For CM10, just replace ics with jellybean):
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b ics
Good, now you’re ready to download the source. This can take a couple of hours!! Run the following command from the terminal (Run the following commands in the terminal from the root of the directory that contains the source, e.g., ~/CM9/):
Code:
repo sync
Okay, the majority of the files needed to build CM are now on your computer. However, device specific files are needed. To get them, issue the following command in your terminal:
Code:
source build/envsetup.sh
lunch
After the lunch command, choose your device. If you have a GSM version, choose cm_maguro, if you have the CDMA version, choose cm_toro. Additional files needed for your device are being downloaded right now.
Before you can actually build the rom, you’ll need to run two more commands to get some proprietary files.
1) Open a terminal and go to CM9/vendor/cm/. Run the following command:
Code:
./get-prebuilts
This will download term.apk and rommanager.apk. You will need these files otherwise you’ll get an error while building.
2) Now we need to grab some files from your phone. Make sure you have a working build cyanogenmod version (just install a nightly) on your phone. Make sure adb is setup properly (see beginning of this post)!
Connect your phone to the pc. Open a terminal and go to CM9/device/samsung/(Maguro OR Toro)/. Run the following command:
Code:
sh extract-files.sh
BUILDING CM9/CM10
The building part is very easy. It just requires two simple commands:
Code:
source build/envsetup.sh
brunch
After the brunch command, choose your device. Again, if you have a GSM version, choose cm_maguro, if you have the CDMA version, choose cm_toro. Depending on your computer, hopefully you’ll have a fully functioning CM9 or CM10 in 30minutes-2hours (or even longer) . You can find the rom in: /out/target/product/(Maguro OR Toro)/
Next time you build, first clean your working directory. Enter the following command in the terminal:
Code:
make clobber
This will completely remove your output directory!
To update the source, before each build just run:
Code:
repo sync
ADDITIONAL INFO
Install Java
Installing java is very easy in Ubuntu 12.04. Java 6 is recommended. To install it in Ubuntu 12.04 or Linux Mint 13, download the most recent Java 6 SDK from HERE. To install, open a terminal and run the following commands:
Code:
$ chmod +x jdk-6u34-linux-x64.bin
$ sudo ./jdk-6u34-linux-x64.bin
$ sudo mv jdk1.6.0_34 /usr/lib/jvm/
$sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_34/bin/java 1
$ sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javac javac /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_34/bin/javac 1
$ sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javaws javaws /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_34/bin/javaws 1
$ sudo update-alternatives --config java
$ sudo update-alternatives --config javac
$ sudo update-alternatives --config javaws
NOTE: after each 'update-alternative'-command, choose the correct (new) java version!
To check if you have the correct java version, type in a terminal:
Code:
java –version
I also added JAVA_HOME to my path; I don’t know if it is still necessary, but it doesn’t hurt either. First, check where java is located. In a terminal type:
Code:
which java
In my case the output shows /usr/bin/java, but it could be located somewhere else. Write down the path minus '/java'. Then open /home/USERNAME/.bashrc and add the following line to the bottom of the file:
Code:
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/bin
Of course replace /usr/bin with your path. Then save and close, and in a terminal run:
Code:
source ~/.bashrc
Odexed version
Some people like their rom to be odexed. There are multiple ways to achieve this (special thanks to Planet X for helping me with this):
1)Instead of ‘brunch’ do the following (if you are building for toro, replace maguro with toro):
Code:
source /build/envsetup.sh
lunch cm_maguro-user
make –j4
(Note:
taken from source.android.com: GNU make can handle parallel tasks with a -jN argument, and it's common to use a number of tasks N that's between 1 and 2 times the number of hardware threads on the computer being used for the build. E.g. on a dual-E5520 machine (2 CPUs, 4 cores per CPU, 2 threads per core), the fastest builds are made with commands between make -j16 and make -j32.)
2)If you want to build an odexed version every time and just want to use the brunch command, do the following:
-Open build/core/main.mk
-Comment out (place a # at the beginning of the line) lines 240, 241, 245, and 246. Thus, replace:
ifneq (true,$(DISABLE_DEXPREOPT))
ifeq ($(user_variant),user)
Ifeq ($(HOST_OS),linux)
WITH_DEXPREOPT := true
Endif
endif
endif

Click to collapse
# ifneq (true,$(DISABLE_DEXPREOPT))
# ifeq ($(user_variant),user)
Ifeq ($(HOST_OS),linux)
WITH_DEXPREOPT := true
Endif
# endif
# endif
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now you can use the brunch command to build an odexed version with insecure boot image.
Hopefully this guide will benefit some people, if not, it kept me busy for a while. Enjoy building!!
(btw, I'm not a native english speaker, so excuse me if I made errors in grammar )
Wow great work. These tutorials keep getting better making it so easy to compile your own rom!
So what does that "brunch" command actually do?
Is it just a script that does the make otapackage commands and stuff?

Indeed! Brunch is actually a combination of 'lunch' and 'make'. Using the 'lunch-part' you choose your build (in our case the maguro or toro). Next, the 'make-part' actually gets things going. The nice thing using brunch is that it automatically detects the maximum number of threads it can use so that it will run at maximum speed.
Finally set my computer up to compile CM9 last night for the first time and after a few tries I finally got it going. The only problem is that I am now getting an error very close to this one.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25452343&postcount=3093
That poster says that it has been happening for a few days now. Is this a known issue with compiling CM9 or is this just user error? I have tried twice compiling now and have had no luck. Is it working for anyone else?
---------- Post added at 02:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:19 PM ----------
Here is the exact error that Im getting. I tried it again today just to see if it anything had changed.
make[1]: *** [sub-make] Error 2

Thanks for this guide. I just built my first CM9 kang. Getting ready to flash it. Now to find a guide on what I can and can't change and recompile or do I just remove stuff and use 7-zip to zip it back up?

Glad to hear you succeeded building your first kang. I don't really understand what you want to do next? If you want to remove stuff from the zip, you can. I for instance always remove stk.apk. But you can also modify the build files so that only things you want will be built. You can play around with the source code and things like that. Anyway, most of the answers you will find using google. I also very much like the development board on Rootzwiki; people are really helpful and friendly there. So if you have any specific questions, i recommend that forum as well!

Okay thanks. I was asking just what you answered. I want to be able to remove and/or add stuff to the zip for starters. I found the answer through Google, but I do appreciate you taking the time to answer. I'll definitely be visiting the Rootzwiki dev board. Thanks for the suggestion.

That's a very useful link, thanks! In addition, if you want to cherry pick commits that haven't been merged yet -specific CM commits, such as navbar customization-, have a look here: http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/q/branch:ics,n,z
Now let's say you see something interesting that you want to add. Then look at that commit and you'll see a 'download' command, such as "git fetch http://review.cyanogenmod.com/CyanogenMod/android_frameworks_base refs/changes/06/13306/15 && git checkout FETCH_HEAD". Just run that command and if everything works, you have succesfully cherry picked a commit. -of course, because these are not yet merged, there is the chance that no everything will work as it should-
There are also some GUI programs to manage git. I'm just about to try gitgui by all accounts it is very good.

Hey, i just compiled my first CM7 build from sources, this is what i did:
cd ~/android/system/
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b gingerbread
repo sync -j16
cd ~/android/system/device/htc/bravo/
./extract-files.sh
~/android/system/vendor/cyanogen/get-rommanager
cd ~/android/system/
repo sync
. build/envsetup.sh && brunch bravo
Click to expand...

Homever, the flashable zip is called "update-cm-7.2.0-RC1-bravo-UNOFFICIAL-signed" (same in build.prop), while the latest version is RC3.
So do i actually have RC1, or RC3 and there is something wrong with build bot and it's renaming flashable .zip and build.prop incorrectly?
Anyone experienced this?

Requirements:
Linux - Ubuntu 12.04 - 64bit (AFAIK, a 64 bit host is needed to compile JB)
An i9000 with cm10 already installed - Get the latest nightly here: http://get.cm/?device=galaxysmtd
About 14GB of storage for the repository plus about 15GB for building
If you're using Windows or another OS, grab Virtual Box and install Ubuntu on a VM. It makes a nice development environment.
(Give the VM enough resources - A few cores and 2-4GB of RAM)
Building in other Linux distributions?
Here are some contibutions from fellow members:

Doesn't have to be Ubuntu, as long as you can find the equivalent packages.

The android SDK setup uses a GUI. (but perhaps there's a way to run it from the CLI)

Is step 4.5 (Setup Manifest) really required? Can't test it at the moment, but I know, it isn't required for building CM9 anymore, despite it is mentioned in the guide for building CM9. As I understand it, its a relict from when the Galaxy S specific sources weren't yet merged to the CyanogenMod repository.

The local manifest is still needed to download the device specific files & kernel source (also for CM9).
The thing not needed for CM9 after some time was using the teamhacksung buildscript.

It shouldn't be, if it is like that, but I didn't get those sources until I added the manifest.
Perhaps a quirk, but that's how it worked.
The thing is, I had to put in the guide, as it was the way it worked, starting from a fresh, completely clean system.

I was looking for something like this for quite a while now. Now I can finally compile my own builds
I compiled a build using this exact method 2 days ago, flashed the build to the phone and it went into constant pre-recovery bootloops. I had to flash GB with Odin to get back.
One thing was that I compile on a seperate box at home and transferred the file using scp. Maybe that corrupted, so I'm gonna try again tomorrow.
Could it be possible that the codebase itself was broken when I compiled? :-/
Did anybody have anythign similar? :S

Did anybody have anythign similar? :S

Don't think so. The repo is not left with a broken code base.
The thing is, sometimes users get into the boot loop state even when installing the (un)official cm10 builds, so other factors cause them.

Hi! Here's a complete guide for people who want to develop AOKP from source. I havent compiled any ROM from source because my internet connection is too slow. This guide will work, as far as I know. So lets start off by seeing the requirements.
Requirements :
Code:
1. A 64-bit environment. (64-bit is necessary for android 4.0 and plus builds)
2. Ubuntu 12.04 or 12.10 (with 64-bit architecture)
3. 2Ghz Dual Core Processor
4. 2GB Minimum ram
5. 50GB File Space (For only one rom source)
The device tree can be found here : Link. (thanks to whitexp for the device tree and percy_g2 to provide the correct links in the replies.
Now Open the terminal (CRTL+ALT+T) and go ahead as follows :
1. Update your OS
Code:
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get upgrade
2. Download the required packages :
2A. Installing JDK:
Code:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install oracle-java6-installer
Once its installed check weather its installed properly or not.
Code:
$ java -version
The output should be like this :
Code:
java version "1.6.0_45"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_45-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.45-b01, mixed mode)
2B. Installing required packages.
Code:
apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential \
zip curl zlib1g-dev libc6-dev libncurses5-dev x11proto-core-dev \
libx11-dev libreadline6-dev libgl1-mesa-dev tofrodos python-markdown \
libxml2-utils xsltproc pngcrush gcc-multilib lib32z1 schedtool
2C. LibGL shortcut issue solver:
Code:
$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libGL.so
3. Setup installing repo
Code:
$ mkdir ~/bin
$ PATH=~/bin:$PATH
$ curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo
$ chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
4. Create the working folder
Code:
$ mkdir aokp_ics
$ cd aokp_ics
5A. Making the directory for downloading the source
Code:
mkdir -p ~/rom/android/system
Now go into that folder by :
Code:
cd ~/rom/android/system
PATH=~/bin:$PATH
5B. Downloading the AOKP source:
Code:
$ repo init -u https://github.com/AOKP/platform_manifest.git -b ics
6. Sync repository:
Code:
$ repo sync
** Please note that this will take a long time. You need fast connection because the size repositories is 8 ~ 12 GB.
7. Setting up the source folder
Once the sync finishes without breaking all the folders will appear in rom/android/system folder, Execute :
Code:
mkdir -p ~/rom/android/system/device/samsung/totoro
and then for vendor, execute this :
Code:
mkdir -p ~/rom/android/system/vendor/samsung/totoro
8. Compiling
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch cm_totoro-eng
brunch cm_totoro-eng
** Your build will be located at /rom/android/system/out
All the best..
And how will this work again?
Without proper source implementations from the device?

Hmmm,
We can't even compile a stable ics build.
I'm not sure how well this works.
Can any senior GY devs verify this?

i am not an expert in this so I have said that this will work "as far as i know". I have gone till the step in which you have to sync repo. So I thought that this will surely work even ahead of that step.
Ya sure. Some senior GY dev must verify this.
There is a file called default.xml in repo/manifests. You have to change it according to your needs.
LoLz... Let CM9 get stable! AOKP and other ICS based source compiled roms come after!!
Also PPA no longer exists! Java won't install with the method given in the guide!
EDIT:
Also, If you haven't tried on your own you can't say it works -_-
And you didn't mention which device config to be used -_- People aren't pros like you #LOL
@prototype-U @percy_g2 @Deadly
EDIT:
Also the source is not 8-12GB its less than 8GB :silly:
EDIT 3:
More people need to see this :v

Yeah, CM is AOSP with Major Modifications in Google AOSP Source for Performance!
Also instead of compiling ICS based roms you should first compile CM7/GingerBread roms! Coz if you directly start off with CM9/ICS I am sure you are going to get frustrated of the big big errors you are going to face!
This thread ironic! lol

AOKP or any aosp builds based on cm9 can be compiled but it will have same bugs like CM 9 and device tree can be found https://github.com/Whitexp/android_device_samsung_totoro/tree/ICS here for SGY .
Its useless until RIL is fixed
Also compiling isn't that tough!
But writing proper HAL's and fixing the bugs is tough!!
hmm thread is not a bit useful in this forum
aokp on galaxy y5360
make me laugh
we can dream for cm7.2 aosp is a milestone that cant be achieve
I am new here and not a professional.
I have tried this. But i didnt make the final build because my internet is too slow(256K modem). but i have reached the sync repo step successfully and so i thought i would share it. But now i see that sharing it was waste.
And yes, @Arnav.G its not a rule that CM must be maintained first and AOKP after that. Anyone can start the work of AOKP simultaneously. I was seeing your profile and i saw that you also have posted a guide on compiling CM, AOKP and all. I sincerely think that the guide is not so noob friendly, you should make it more simpler by separating the commands which you have pressed into one.
greetings.

Ok.
So OP what device tree did you use to be exact?

AOKP and Galaxy Y look so funny together!
Btw you missed the major steps:
Setting up vendor
Setting up device tree
Setting up kernel source
And obtaining cm_totoro.mk
Anyways, its worth the try.. atleast you guys would be able to see AOKP
Subscribed to thread xD
Lets see what is his next reply

first we download the required binary:

then we need to run the binary, and move it to a shared location
Code:
chmod +x jdk-6u45-linux-x64.bin
sudo ./jdk-6u45-linux-x64.bin
sudo mv jdk1.6.0_45 /usr/lib/jvm/
finally, all the needed java binaries need to be installed, and given the highest priority. This will override any other java versions you have
Code:
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/java 1
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javac javac /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/javac 1
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javaws javaws /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/javaws 1
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/jar jar /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/jar 1
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javadoc javadoc /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/javadoc 1
now check that jdk1.6.0_45 is selected on these
Code:
sudo update-alternatives --config java
sudo update-alternatives --config javac
sudo update-alternatives --config javaws
sudo update-alternatives --config jar
sudo update-alternatives --config javadoc

This may be a stupid post. I have tried to search the forum. However, I don't find any solution.
I am new to Andriod, Cm11, and git. I have background on Gcc etc.
I have installed the CM11 rom to my DHD, it works very well. So I am curious on how to build a rom from source by myself.
the ennvironment is set up. I can build the latest Andriod code without problem. BTW, the image seems quite big.
I follow the first post of this thread.
However, i encounted error with "lunch cm_ace-userdebug".
I try several different methods to retrieve DHD relevant files. but no help.
the errors are as following:
lunch cm_ace-userdebug

How can I solve it?

You may want to post this in a more general development forum. You don't need to be restricted to DHDs; it'll be the same with other phones too.
Hi,
I'm just as new to building android images as you are, but, surprisingly, it worked for me just yesterday. So maybe I can help.
In the messages you posted I see only the officially supported dhd android versions. So, I guess you need to somehow enable the unofficial cm11 first. My guess is, this will do just that, but I'm not sure:
Go to the directory where your hiddden .repo directory is in (where you issued repo init), then issue this commands
Code:
mkdir .repo/local_manifests
wget https://github.com/AceEnablementProject/android/raw/cm-11.0/local_manifest.xml -O .repo/local_manifests/cm_ace.xml
The commands I did are as follows (I had some problems and actually did much more, but I think this is all that's really needed):
Code:
mkdir cm11
cd cm11
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm-11.0
mkdir .repo/local_manifests
wget https://github.com/AceEnablementProject/android/raw/cm-11.0/local_manifest.xml -O .repo/local_manifests/cm_ace.xml
repo sync
cd vendor/cm/
./get-prebuilts
cd ../../
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch cm_ace-userdebug
make bacon
After that (and a loooong wait) I found this in the out directory:
Code:
out/cyanogenmod/target/product/ace/cm-11-20140505-UNOFFICIAL-ace.zip
