Hello fellow developers. I am wondering if there is any way to obtain local manifest from already existing ROM? In this case I mean pure AOSP ROM from cile. Because he stopped his work with it, and I would like to continue building this ROM.
Cheers

Could someone point me to the repository containg the vendor overlay for the desire on a gb 2.3.7 build
e.g. here is the code i would use if building for the incredible
code:
cd ~/mydroid/system/device
cd htc
mkdir inc
cd inc
git clone http://github.com/koush/android_device_htc_inc.git inc
What i want to know is what url should i put in place of the red text for the desire?
Thanks I'm new to this
You could just use an extract from a working Rom or phone using the extract or unzip sh in the cm repository

Are you suggesting i build it for a generic device and add drivers afterwards?
Pull the ones from cm7? Seems like a decent plan.
No you build everything specific for the bravo. You use the extracted proprietory files to complete the source

Ye but apart from the proprietary files he'll also need the vendor folder containing all device specific non proprietary files and make-files for desire as well as a script to pull the proprietary files, and this seems to be the one he's looking for.
Non of the above is included for the desire in AOSP, so he'll need to get it somewhere else like from the cm7 project.
And device. Possibly hardware too

Thank you for all the replies i'm still rather confused but i'm going to try using the vendor overlay for cyanogen with the make files and script and just see what happens

Yep it should work ok, even though the make-files could need some adjusting. As a second option, Oxygen is also open source with desire support, so you could borrow those as well, but they should be pretty similar to the cm ones.
Rootsu when could you give me a short explanation of how you went about building etc. I have set up the builds environment and can build a rom for the emulator or nexus s. All i'm trying to do is build a basic stock GB ROM for the desire as part of teaching myself how to develop Android roms I understand dgb was a similar room for you which you have since worked on and published to these forums

I used the redux 1.2 github repository to start with. I started there as for me it was the best Rom.
All I had to do to compile was get the proprietory files using the extract.sh
What I then did was learn my way around the source and work out how to change what needed changing. Swapping out the majority of the source with the Google repository.
There's still stuff I need to learn though, like changing the kernel but time is an issue for me.
I would recommend using redux or oxygen source as a starting point if I were you as cm is very different to pure aosp. I didn't know oxygen sources were available....

Hey guys! I am new to XDA Developers! Most people would have seen me over at Android Forums! I do know a lot about developing and rooting but I am trying to develop a ROM for the Galaxy S2 (T-Mobile) and when I go to install it...it says Installation Aborted!
My ROM (SpaceROM) is a port from the BulletROM! I was looking into making ROMs from port and I used a method of editing the ROM with Windows Explorer! I just extracted the ROM using WinRAR and then went into the ROM's settings and stuff...I edited the different apps that would install when first booted and the bootanimation.zip. But when I go to install it, it just keeps saying Installation aborted! I did a FULL wipe in every way I could!
Any help would greatly be appreciated!
Hope the great Devs here lend you a hand. Wish you luck. I'd love go learn ROM building.

Likely the zip file for changed in an incompatible way. The zip requirements are very strict for a ROM. Google zipping up an update on Windows. I'd offer more help, but I don't have internet right now so this is all swyped in on my phone.

Just go read nearly all the general stuff toppic is what i do when i have a new phone. Today i got a second gio that needs fixing and a update.. For fun i start with the general toppic. Than i progress the other thopic's. Put some time in it to understand stuff.
See if you can backup the phone system and root the phone. Next a new recovery and a new rom. The info is all in this part of the gio forum.

building a rom from source is simple
you only need to setup the source directorys and sync some stuff the let the automated compile progress hapen and done
everyone can do this
but modifying java and xml
c++ c etc
is mostly on source
if you take like stock rom and smali modify its gonna be bit harder because of no source
but alsomore fun

Discuss, the original genisys rom or the updated one etc. And why?
I'd be really interested in knowing your opinions.

With an unrooted and locked phone, I'm wondering what else you could use except original rom?
