so now we all hope from the developers that they will make a better and bugs free rom for us

i could not attached a link coz i hace registered recently so its not allowing me to attach link.
but you could simply google it amazon fire phone source code,the link will appear at the top of the result.

Isn't the src for "4.6.6" out for a while now? In the same time window ggow used the 4.6.6 US Binaries for his 2016-01-14 build...
If you are referring to that, that's just the "minimum effort" release by Amazon / Lab126, not a full source drop.

I think it is not the complete source because the size of the package is only 205 MB.

I am sick of HTC delaying source code

I just sent them this
Code:
Hello,
kernel source for 1.29 and 2.05 for HTC One X is still not available.
These delays are hindering community efforts to fix your inept software and are in breach of GPL. Please provide me the link to the source to to those 2 kernels and make sure that you release the source at the same time as the binary form.
I am ready to escalate this via gpl-violations.org unless your response satisfies me.
Regards
Jan Schermer
If anybody wants to chime in, you're welcome.
Samsung is just better at this.. look at the SIII it was released after the OneX but it has many many more custom truly cocked roms!
And i'm sick of such useless posts. They will release it when they will release it. Get a life.
Why would they publish the source for a test RUU? 1.29 OK but not 2.05 yet

you forgot one main thing
2.05 is unreleased and leaked
And now no more leaked test releases lol.
Well done!!! Demand source codes for versions that aren't even released yet.
Lmao what is going on here
Sent from eXoDiZeD rom
They have to provide source code for every binary to those who got the binary. So I assume those 2.05 testers have the source for their kernels, don't they? if they did, it would leak, and we would profit from it (it's our right because so does HTC!).
Also, what devs here do is illegal - I could demand the source code from them but they don't have it - is it okay to force them into illegality just because HTC are being ignorant?
And those posts are not meaningless, they are violating GPL and withholding source code for no real reason. All source-built kernels are still based on 1.28, but they fixed a lot of stuff on 1.29, and for me (a linux professional) those hacks show in lots of places.
What are you doing here if you really want HTC-built Sense then? Do you want to run slapped-together binary ROMs because there is no source for the latest update? This is called Android Development for a reason.

you can not demand anything from an internal leaked file! in fact your possession of the leaked rom might be illegal lol

That might be true. But AFAIK the 2.05 RUU was provided to some public testers as well.
I just opted to demand 2.05 as well in case it takes them a month to respond and it will be released by then, it did no harm in any case.
Also, we wouldn't have to have this debate if the development was actually transparent (that means - HTC working with community, not just pushing uncompilable sources for their old kernels). But I guess most managers can't grasp that concept without the proper buzzwords.
Sorry, I'm pissed at many more things than just HTC right now, but I directed my anger here

You can demand open source codes not closed source and to get open source android, simply get AOSP sources. HTC will publish their sources when they want and after they finish.
EOT.

You know that kernel is GPL and what that means, right? Or are you just trolling? HTC is obliged to provide source code - it's not a goodwill gesture, and they consistently fail to do that.
Or are you talking just about 2.05? In that case, the first tester outside HTC should get the source code and would be free to release it to us - closed beta or not.
Some parts of kernel may be closed (for example modules). They can post kernel without them. Its like AOSP android, you can download it, and compile and use, but you will not get Android Apps (gmail,youtube etc) included. cause they are CLOSED.

pro tip, if you don't act like a self-entitled brat when asking for something which they are required todo you are more likely to get an informed helpful response.
if that really is the email that you sent I wouldn't be surprised if it was just moved to the email bin

Frankly ,they can have x3 more custom rom`s but we have one who is better then all SIII ROM`s together , we are so lucky and really need to be proud with our original developers like Venom Team , so S3 performance without ROM like our ViperX is in vain.
Don`t worry be happy! :victory:

CM-11 Snapshot M13

If, like me, you despaired of CM ever releasing another "stable" version of CM-11, your wait is over.
I found out they had FINALLY done another M-SNAPSHOT code freeze, so I synced the source and built one of my own.

This has been the case for as long as XDA has been GPL compliant. Any distribution of a binary (meaning kernel boot,img) that is not unmodified manufacturer's stock requires a link to kernel source, not a code dump. Anyone building CM from source should have no issues getting the link to source code and including it.

Android Wear 2.0 for SmartWatch 3 port progress Thread & Creation of OSS project

Hello,
As some people heard, i really try to get Android Wear 2.0 for our beloved SmartWatch 3.
And it's possible, sources, device trees, all exist to build a working own compiled Android Wear 2.0.
So this thread tells about the current process of the port
PROGRESS
Code:
Repo synced
First build finished (not buildable yet due no blobs included
GAPPS Porting in progress
Fixed to 99% the device tree
Updating Blobs to M1D64T in progress
Using own Device tree
SOURCES
Device Tree for tetra:
https://github.com/Sony-SmartWatch-3-OSS/android_device_tree_tetra_eng_prerelease
Device Kernel for tetra (unmodified):
https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/bcm/+/android-wear-6.0.1_r0.99
(we can use MM kernel on Nougat too, maybe some patches needed but that's okay)
Prebuilts/Blobs for tetra:
https://github.com/Sony-SmartWatch-3-OSS/vendor_prebuilts_tetra
For Discussions go to this thread please: https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch-3/general/companion-thread-android-wear-2-0-t3565693
If you want to help me on this project, write to me via telegram: https://t.me/PDesire
I need that so much any ETA ?
By the way keep up the good work !
Nice to see someone is working on this :victory:
Sent from my Sony Xperia Z5 using XDA Labs
Thanks for your job.
Enviado desde mi Redmi Note 3 mediante Tapatalk
great!!! thanks
Dear PDesire,,
My support can be only moral..... :crying:
And I hoping good news soon from you
Thx again for your great hard work :good:
thankx you great hard work and good luck my friend
I checked out your device tree. It looks like it's based off an Open Devices tree. I don't think we need the following lines
Code:
include device/sony/common-headers/KernelHeaders.mk
-include device/sony/common-kernel/KernelConfig.mk
in BoardConfig.mk.
Also, what about the HALs? Asteroid OS used the system.img from a stock build, but we will need to build from source. I do not think it is open source, as it is not available on google git servers.
EDIT: I do not think building from source will work. This is what I found the Google Android building group:
Certain components of Android (and therefore Wear) come from third parties and have licenses which require the source code to be made available (e.g. the Linux kernel). The components made available via the AOSP repositories for releases like Wear are, afaik, the components which have that type of license.
Wear is a release which has taken the same path as Honeycomb. I can understand that for open source fans and people looking to tinker with a working system it’s somewhat disappointing to see, but those are the choices Google has made.

Looks like the only way to go forward is to port it from a pre-compiled version for another watch, like they did for the Galaxy Gear devices.

These sources are incomplete and only include GPL licensed projects. It is not the complete source, just like google releases preview sources for AOSP preview builds (M, N etc). I suggest you not waste your quota in downloading the source.

Yeah I've seen these, and already fixed. Patch comes soon.
Things for WLAN and BT for example are on google repo too and if a library or something is missing we can use it from M1D64T

Lel then I can't understand why the build is working xD at least I am building in time and already 14% finished
I know some libs we have to grab from the Marshmallow FW but that shouldn't be a big deal
At least we also need some things from Preview 2 so we can get our AW 2.0 Preview 2 working
So I try my best to grab much from source and if required also from FW, but all in all its possible for our SmartWatch 3 to get Android Wear 2.0
Your PDesire
but there's one thing i don't understand ... why r u using preview 2 instead of a feature complete newer version or the final version?

Because there aren't any sources of the final version.
@PDesire :
You're the man...keep up a good work ???
Hey @PDesire , any news? I'm sooooo hyped!!!
Thank bro I hope
Thanks for this!
So current status is:
Code:
Repo synced
First Test build stopped to fix things on device tree
Expected in future:
Code:
Blobs dump
Fully fixed Device tree
Creating vendor for tetra
Adding overlays for framework to device tree
Some mix with armv7-a-neon generic
Gapps Dump
Expected in far future:
Code:
Creating an OSS project for tetra (like sonyxperiadev but for tetra)
So guys I will do more tomorrow as I am awake already from Friday 7AM - 3AM Saturday (right now GMT +1) and working on it and I need my sleep xD
So Goodnight guys and I can confirm our dream of Android Wear 2.0 for SmartWatch 3 comes nearer

GPL Source Request

Hi all,
I've created an issue on Motorola's kernel-msm repo that is a request for them to release the kernel sources for the G 5 Plus (Potter).
The post is here - https://github.com/MotorolaMobilityLLC/kernel-msm/issues/104
Please feel free to reply with similar requests so as to get Motorola moving on a proper GPL source release.

Oh really? My bad... Can I just pull from that kernel-msm repo mentioned in the original post? Or is there a different repo just for Potter?
It looks like the source release for NPN25.137-15 is tagged here:
https://github.com/MotorolaMobilityLLC/kernel-msm/tree/MMI-NPN25.137-15/
It's a bit older than the version shipped with my phone but it could work. I'm going to see if I can compile it later.

Why'd you edit your post? I took a look at Alberto's repo and it looks like it would be compatible with our phones.

Man yes let me mention the guy who successfully ​able to build with Alberto's sources. He is @i.snehal.kiran.
He has done this to compile but unfortunately for some reason he doesn't able to get the device to test. His msg is below
basically i have taken addison device tree ...just change the kernel path and defconfig name in boradconfig.mk ..makes it build boot.img
the source provided by motorola on github is full of errors..so use alberto's kernel for addison till you get official kernel from moto

I edited the post bcz I thought u want to work with custom kernel for stock rom. And I thought this might not be useful.

I got as far as getting the LineageOS sources pulled for 14.1, had to do it twice since it was too big for my home directory so I had to create a new volume and run repo sync again. Took forever, but at least I have the OS sources downloaded. Now we're at the point of getting that kernel and setting up a device configuration for our device. Once we get that, then I can see if we can build and flash.

Device tree, Kernel source, Vendor blobs

Heya, I just got my hands on a J200H, and I get to keep it for a while.
As I was using it, I thought if there is any lineageos for it, and there is not.
Now it would be great if you guys point me where I can find Device tree, Kernel source, Vendor blobs for this device, so that I could start working on this device and add the repo to official lineageos server for build ( provided all things goes smoothly nearly one month is enough )
Also I saw some varients of this device, it would be great if you could add device models (the codes- like J200H) and their source codes too, I could try merging them into a universal source code and patch as universal makes less problem.
Thanks In advance! And any update will be posted here.
I doubt if the things mentioned are available.
But if the are really willing to do this than this can be useful .
