If you have to ask this question, you probably don't know enough to do it.
What exactly do you want to accomplish?

You can change whatever you want in the source code. That is one reason why HTC makes it available. But you need to know how to compile it, troubleshoot, etc.
I'm not a developer, so I can't talk any more specifically/technically than that. But that is the basic concept.
I'm also not sure if "source code" means what your friend thinks it means. Or is he just talking about modifying the ROM?

how do you guys feel about video tutorials being added for helping anyone with an issue? do you guys like this idea?
Would you mind adding a link to the thread of my rom development here on XDA to your website under my builds?
Thanks!

Maybe the site should say "Vogue Website For All WM Roms" unless you are also linking Android ROMs.
overtime it shall contain every rom available so users can easily preview roms
added Vogue irc chat
I like the idea of the videos. The first time I unlocked my Vogue was thanks to a video tutorial on Youtube, which I can no longer find. +1 on the idea!

Yea, I'm well aware of that. Trying to get him away from the dark side and see the light .
(He's obviously got some kernel code chops... he got BLAC booting on NAND, pretty much on his own.)

Herrickwong, Hasn't HYC always made all of his changes open and available for all to see? You should be able to find all of his commits.
As I understand it, NAND has been using their own hacked up RIL, they haven't adopted mine yet.

on frx6 yes but our frx7 is using it (not yet released). Thanks to you who made it nand friendly. The old one was not friendly at all :-( ..
I came across this guide, but I'm not able to understand it.

Someone is able to verify and possibly explain it better?

Too bad.
But after reading the webpage, it did look too good to be true.
Yeah when I used to moderate at AF we used to see this a lot, reading it shows it talking about HTC specifics such as RUU which stands for rom update utility and s-off which toggles signature verification off so you can write unsigned code to the system. Really people, the ONLY way that the os can ever be updated is if B&N released source, that's not going to happen and even if it did it still might not be enough because of e-ink specific code that might be under a NDA. :banghead:

I'm gonna say definitely no, because Barnes and Noble is breaking away from Nook. They don't seem to want to have anything to do with Nook anymore.

A tgz file is a gzipped tar file (UNIX/Linux). I know Winzip will be able to extract it, though it takes two steps. Once you extract it you will have to source code for Nook firmware v1.2. What you do with that is up to you because it is way beyond me.
~David
PS The file would be much easier to work with in Linux or you could extract it to your Window machine using cygwin.

Yeah, I know about the whole .tgz file thing. Been working in this department for a couple years.
But I also don't know what anyone's going to do with that source code!

I don't know either. helmen asked about the source code, I knew where to find it, so I posed it. Perhaps helmen or others might be able to do something with it.

I think he wanted Barnes and Noble to post a source code for the Nook Touch to use Android 4.4.
Am I right, or did I misunderstand?

Well, perhaps I misunderstood. There certainly isn't source code to use Andriod 4.4 on the Nook as B&N never intended that. However some android developers might be able to take the most recent source code, which I posted, and figure out a way to make a new version of Android run on it. (I personally think 4.4 would be a real stretch, but if somebody could figure out the eInk driver situation, 2.3 might be a possibility.) I don't know if the source for the eInk drivers would be in the source code (I doubt it) but if they are, someone might be able to use this.

Ah, I see. Well, thanks for the conversation and the source code (not that I can do much with it, though - ADB and modifying the framework-res.apk are more fun for me! )
Huawei has finally uploaded the opens source code for all of our devices (the 3 hardware versions).
I have reuploaded it to Google Drive for easier download.
Grab them here : https://goo.gl/DiAj78
Wooooowwww, if that's the sources all is getting great now. Xelfmade, make or phone great again ?
So anybody have the original download link?
Great news! I Assume custom roms etc will become available now once people have built them?
You can get the original downlaods from here : http://consumer.huawei.com/en/opens...Type=openSourceSoftware&pageSize=10&curPage=1
Just search Nova. The download speed was a tad slow.
Huh, i was asking them several times over the past days about the sources. Pleasent coincidence.
Thanks for posting this. Let the fun part begin

Oh wow Nice! My variant is the CAN-L01 one.
Probably it will work for any variant, even chinese ones.
But my problem is not the rom itself, is the kernel. I'm wanting to learn to mod and compile kernel just for this, as Nova kernel is awful to tweak.

I know that it will probably work for all variants it's just cool to see my one used as a base for a custom rom.
Do you guys have any guides how to apply these stock roms to unrooted phone? i want to get rid of the carrier crap that's why thinking to apply the stock rom. Thanks.

That was the dumbest answer, u don't need to learn Java first, lol. Hines u can learn Java in the process. This guide is all u need to build, https://raw.githubusercontent.com/nathanchance/Android-Tools/master/Guides/Building_AOSP.txt.
You have to sync the CAF Branch for 5T on whatever ROM you choose. I didn't Know first thing about building, and this guide got me successful build. If u fillow the guide toul have zero issues.

The link you posted doesn't work but it was simple to find an alternative on Google. I've always wondered how to build a ROM so it was interesting to look at, maybe I'll give it a shot sometime one I get Linux dual-booting on my laptop. Thanks!
