Hello all, Im in the process of learning how to build a rom from source, I've got a good Xubuntu setup running, got my android enviroment setup, and the source downloaded, now im having problems figuring out how to extract all the files need from my device (flo) to start building.
I was wondering if anyone out there with the knowladge had any time to spare to a hungry mind. I've googled a few pages, and videos, but none of them are working. Well, hopfully someone out there has the time, and is bored enough.:laugh:
anybody? maybe point me in the right direction?

Download your device specific sources by addimg your device to a local manifest. Generally for nexus 7 i guess u need to add arnd 5 vendors nd a device tree nd kernel nd sync em up. Btw what rom r u trying to build?

***this thread is made strictly for development purposes so that any developer can join up and help the development of a working port of this for the Galaxy Wonder***
Okay at this point in time I'm trying to make an hard port (the easy way) of CM7 by trying to make a generic build of CM7, then bundling it with Arco68's kernel and afterwards fix the libs and whatnot.
I've already managed to compile the generic build and am now playing around to create a working .ZIP file.
Update 1 : ZIP install fine, but no boot, at least for now. Time to play a little
Update 2: Hm, weird. I was convinced this was gonna work. I'm most likely missing some Samsung patches and **** that generic builds don't have. Going back to the drawing board.
Update 3: While I go into theories about how I should go about CM7, I'm also downloading the sources for Oxygen, because I prefer it over CM7. That way I can study both.
Right on bring it on !

Since hard porting was getting me nowhere, I decided to try the hard way and I'm currently making a vendor and device config manually. I'm basing it on YardE's awesome work on the Galaxy S Plus front. At least it saves me some work, but there is still a whole lot to do.

Good luck with that considering we have zero basis to work on and building a ROM from source. If you achieve the miracle of building a 'vendor' folder that actually compiles, tell me. That tutorial assumes you have a vendor config that works for your device.
Anyways good luck. I'm still trying to make a working vendor folder.

You might be able to find those files at Arco's Github.
https://github.com/arco/android_device_samsung_ancora
The above link does contain a file called " setup-makefiles.sh"

Hello all.
Do you think it's possible to work on an Ubuntu port from nexus 4 for our devices?
Maybe someone is already working on it. If yes could you tell us please.
Thanks you devs for your hard work!
Maybe image from n7 would be easier to port since it is tegra 3...
all i can say would love to se this tested out due to the Nexus 7 sharing the tegra 3 but there is alot of other issues at hand that may be different but the dev have made wonders of previous things.
Yes I agree with you. Deva are really goods here. I'm a noob in Linux dev. So n7 image is ready to download it's why I asked this question... I would like to try but I don't want to brick my phone... But I'm really interested to try Ubuntu...
An official porting guide will be availllable at 15pm... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting
We want to see ports for our HTC One X Some developers already ported it to SGS3.
I think is better wait for a port when radio and other works.
Because, the first image, have the radio off, kernel is unstable and a lot of pics are fake
To anybody else trying: can you get the "phablet-dev-bootstrap" command to work? 'Cause I can't.
I'll try at home... Work in progress for one x+... Maybe it's will be easier to port it...
Sorry for question but i'm interesting: why port a pre-alpha release when don't work anything?
I think in 2 months there are new release with a stable kernel and with radio on

It doesn't look like much can be done until we get recovery.
I've built a stock, debloated, deodexed rom but cant test without recovery.
I've tried to compile recovery but I am afraid it's beyond my expertise.
Let me know if I can help
I spent my free time arguing today didn't even see your reply til now. I'll see what's up tomorrow before work though and I believe a rom can be flashed via stock recovery if done right. .. Maybe I think I read somewhere we can sideload? Worth investigation if you have a rom to test yaknow but use caution

Stock recovery has sideload but I tried the rom with no luck. I did the update via sideload on my good phone (regretting it now) and it worked.
maybe because its signed by samsung.

Yeah there's another step and I think that's the updater script that has to be altered to mimic Samsung or ported to your rom but I am just throwing you ideas for now. Hope it helps

Wishful thinking from a non-developer:
- debloated AOSP
- deodexed
- overclocking
- fast charge
- mount as usb storage
- cwm recovery
While all of these things are what I'd love to see, fast charge is a big one. I use my phone as a GPS navigator on my motorcycle, powered via USB outlet. I'm not sure about this model but my PRIOR phones would lose battery power faster than the usb outlet would charge. Fast charge settings options would remedy this.
I've never built a rom. I think it's time I read up and learn why I don't have what it takes to build one hahaha.
what?
Knox bootloader, wondering if stock out the box comes with it or if the ota update is the bringer of it. .

If by "New" you mean some super meaningful "OMGOSH We're almost there!" type update... No.
All I can really say is that we are still working on it. I believe justlove and I are going to be a pretty good team, we are in daily contact with each other and are working as hard as we can given the circumstances.
I know this is going to sound like normal dev bull s**t but please try to be patient and I'll let you know when we reach certain milestones.

Hello community,
i m sorry for this noobish thread.
Im working on a CM build for T805.
I started from creating a device tree and managed to build it up until a certain point, where i managed to have a build which failed in the installation process because ext4 was not understood as a valid fs_type.
Anyways my intention was to build this device tree up by myself, which failed... hard.
So my next steps are to start from a working device tree like this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-11-fort800-t2921507 for t800 and modifing it to fully support t805.
So diving in to the boardconfig.mk of this repo just brought me to new questions. Like where do i find a complete reference of what variables i can use in this boardconfig.
As you see im pretty nooby on this topic. So i would kindly ask you where i can get further help or maybe a partner who likes to work with me on cm porting for t805
thanks for the help in advance

Don't know anything myself, but good luck!

Hello and thank you. I also started as this point and build my device configuration from scratch and then compared with an actual t800 device tree. i mean im proud that i calculated the partition sizes right and managed to extract the partition schema. Also i was able to extract some important blobs from my device.
But there i had a device config, which would not even install, because something was missing to mount the partitions as ext4 while installing.
So i guess there must be another ressource to start from or @The Devs is it just learning by doing and copying from other repositories?

We are working on this here.
I was having trouble to bring my device tree to build.
I suppose i fixed all my problems yesterday (but i need to start a new build today to see if its running so far)
As soon as i got it ill setup a git repository for this project and we can start to port the t805 kernel.
Ill keep you up to date here.
We would also love to have some more support, if some developers are interested in contributing, send me a pm ill add you to the repo.

Hello fellow XDA members, I recently purchased a Le Pro 3 and a Le S3 during the flash sale and would like to use Cyanogenmod on my devices. I was wondering if anyone on this forum has ever ported a ROM before as I have not, and only know about the CM porting guide and opensource.le.com for the kernel source. If anyone has any tips or would like to assist me in porting CM13 to the Pro 3 please reply to this thread or PM me. Thanks, and let's hope LeEco releases the source soon!
Love to help but this isn't my department ????. But we should probably see more support in a couple more days once they start arriving here
Just out of curiousity, what exactly had you hoped to achieve with this post? If you're interested in porting, ideally you should at least be able to build a rom (for another pre-existing device)... and then you'll have to hunt down help on the CM forums and then eventually IRC.
Talking about this on XDA is pointless.

The purpose of my post was to see if anyone in the XDA community had experience porting a ROM to a new device, and if they'd be interested in helping me. I have read through a few guides and understanding building a ROM, but am struggling to find what I must "merge." From what I've found so far, I'll need to edit/merge the directories in /system/libs and edit the kernel?

No, it's far more complicated than that. You'll need a copy of the kernel for sure, but you'll also need a device definition. You can use the op3's device as a template, it's probably the best example of an msm8996 device you can have.
You really should be checking into the CM forums. CM people are pretty uppity about not supporting things on XDA. They also don't tend to help. Even as a developer I find it difficult sometimes to get their attention. Your best bet is to go to them if you want their help. Good luck.

Where did you get that information from? They "accidentally" released kernel sources not too long ago and seemingly withdrew it. I got a copy of them and that's what I've been working with. I don't have a device to verify if any of it works.

I asked on this forum. Also my S3 is coming tonight, and my Pro tomorrow. I have a copy of the Pro 3 kernel source as well but as of now don't know what to do. What have you worked on so far?

Not a lot. I've identified the CAF tag the sources are based on and have been working to separate the relevant LeEco mods from the less relevant ones. I've also been attempting to remove the leeco specific things from the drivers that i'm keeping since they're a horrible mess and CM won't be able to make use of them anyway. I've also been finding the appropriate open versions of the drivers and taking the latest ones instead.
The mods from LeEco seem to be a mess, the dmesg output I got from a user on the chinese model (the x720) had segfaults from the modifications just after boot. The logcats are so full of errors I was unable to get the user to send me a full logcat from boot.
Interestingly enough, the chinese system rom looks like it came from a Le Max2. This makes sense since it's LeEco's first msm8996 device, and the Le Pro3 is the second one. I imagine the kernel sources work across a number of the 8996's.
Can you send me the link to where you got the open drivers.

This is not a International version? Its USA version? Where is the International source code?
Here's a mega mirror in case the drive link goes down.

Wish i could help more, but it looks like the kernel source is in there too, perhaps that means a fully functional cm13 rom that works AT LEAST as well as the stock rom. VERY EXCITE!

I'm also waiting for CM13.
