In all tutorials I found this lines:
cd ~/android/system/device/htc/dream_sapphire/
./extract-files.sh
But i haven't ANY files in this directory(including this scipt). Can you upload for me all folder? I think about /android/system/device/htc/dream-sapphire/.
Thanks!
The command "extract_files.sh" will extract those files from your phone, but you need to have the phone connected via USB with your PC.
Before trying, you should check whether your adb connection with your phone is working.
Sent from my Gingerbread on Dream using XDA
ADB working for me, If I navigate to platform-tools:
[email protected]:~/sdk/platform-tools$ ./adb devices
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
But if I am In dream_sapphire folder, terminal show only that extract-files.sh not found:
bash: ./extract-files.sh: No such file or directory
From which sources do you want to build? For ezGingerbread for example the "extract-files.sh" is located in "~android/device/htc/sapphire".
Btw. adb devices should give you a list of connected devices. If that is empty (as you posted) something is not working correctly.
CyanogenMod sources. List of devices is not empty, my phone is present here but I found no need to paste this line.
Sorry, but I'm green in this. I want to learn some about building android. I follow this:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/HTC_Dream_&_Magic:_Compile_CyanogenMod_(Linux)
But i type
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git ics
instead of
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b froyo-stable
dream/sapphire is not supported by CM7/CM9 and that's the reason you do not have the directory/files you are expecting. If you only want to get the proprietary files, you can also switch to an older release (e.g. CM6) for that project, but nevertheless you need to change several other things, too, before you will get a build. If you are not familiar with building from sources, I suggest you to start with something easier, i.e. CM6 or ezGingerbread.
Or you could run repo init from anddisa's or my git repos. I don't know his from memory but for mine you would run
Code:
repo init -u https://github.com/tvall43/android.git -b ics-ds
AndDiSa's might be a little better right now but I hope to eventually get mine running something close to stable if possible.
The latest version of cm with the dream/sapphire stuff is cm7 (even though they dropped support). Anything past that you'll have to port yourself (like AndDiSa and I) or wait for someone to.
Also, I'm half asleep. I could have (and likely did) post errors that I didn't notice. Google is your friend.

Only CM uses the "make bacon" command. Unless they use the CM repo tool in their repo, it will be unavailable. Same goes for AOSP.

Welcome to the tutorial for build CyanogenMod 10 for the HTC ChaCha. This tutorial was a community based project from HTC ChaCha’s Google+. We created this tutorial to try and boost the development of the HTC ChaCha board and bring some life back to the board.
Requirements:
Linux System x64 (Ubuntu 12.04 and newer can be used)
Mac OS X can also be used, however this tutorial is designed for Linux users.
Python 2.6 -- 2.7, which you can download from python.org or with sudo apt-get install python on Ubuntu or Debian.
GNU Make 3.81 -- 3.82, which you can download from gnu.org or with sudo apt-get install make on Ubuntu or Debian.
JDK 6 (Can be found at Ubuntu Software Centre or read details in Build Environment for detailed instructions)
Git 1.7 or newer. You can find it at git-scm.com or with sudo apt-get install git-core on Ubuntu or Debian.
Good amount of RAM, less you have longer it will take to build. I recommend a 2GB and higher.
A decent ISP which provides a fast, reliable connection(so you don't timeout during a large pull of source)
Setting up a Build Environment
Follow this guide: http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html
Installing Repo
Repo is a tool that makes it easier to work with Git and Gerrit in the context of Android. To learn more about Repo and Gerrit, see Version Control.
To install, initialize, and configure Repo, follow these steps:
Make sure you have a bin/ directory in your home directory, and that it is included in your path:
Code:
$ mkdir ~/bin
$ export PATH=${PATH}:~/bin
Alternatively, experienced Linux users may wish to add PATH=${PATH}:~/bin to ~/.bashrc to avoid re-typing the export command.
Download the Repo script and ensure it is executable:
Code:
$ curl [url]https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo[/url] > ~/bin/repo
$ chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
Initializing a Repo client
After installing Repo, set up your client to access the android source repository
Create an empty directory to hold your working files, please note that Linux’s files system is case-sensitive so uppercase letters matter. Give it any name you like, we’ve used WORKING_DIRECTORY for a quick example:
Code:
$ mkdir WORKING_DIRECTORY
$ cd WORKING_DIRECTORY
Run repo init to bring down the latest version of Repo with all of its most recent bug fixes. You must specify a URL for the manifest, which specifies where the various repositories included in the Android source will be placed within your working directory and where to download them from. The manifest will update automatically when minor versions of Android are released (4.1.x) but not when major versions are (4.X). A major version can only be changed by selecting the new branch codename with the -b flag bellow.
Code:
$ repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b jellybean
When prompted, please configure Repo with your real name and email address. To download AOSP material, you will need an email address that is connected with a registered Google account. Make sure this is a live address at which you can receive messages as the name that you provide here will show up in attributions for your code submissions. You won’t get any messages if you don’t submit any code.
A successful initialization will end with a message stating that Repo is initialized in your working directory. Your client directory should now contain a .repo directory where files such as the manifest will be kept.
Getting the files
To pull down files to your working directory from the repositories as specified in the default manifest, run
Code:
$ repo sync -j8 WORKING_DIRECTORY
Note: The “-j8” is dependent on your internet connection. If you have a slower and fragile then use a lower number like “j2” for example.
The Android source files will be located in your working directory under their project names. The initial sync operation will take an hour or more to complete. For more about repo sync and other Repo commands, see Version Control.
The repo sync operation will take a lot of time (JB source are about 14 GB!). Make sure no other people will be using your system and then pull the source, recommend pulling during the night. However if your source does get interrupted then you can continue the source pulling by running the command again, however this is not recommended.
Using authentication
By default, access to the Android source code is anonymous. To protect the servers against excessive usage, each IP address is associated with a quota.
When sharing an IP address with other users (e.g. when accessing the source repositories from beyond a NAT firewall), the quotas can trigger even for regular usage patterns (e.g. if many users sync new clients from the same IP address within a short period).
In that case, it is possible to use authenticated access, which then uses a separate quota for each user, regardless of the IP address.
The first step is to create a password from the password generator and to save it in ~/.netrc according to the instructions on that page.
The second step is to force authenticated access, by using the following manifest URI:
Code:
[url]https://android.googlesource.com/a/platform/manifest[/url]
Notice how the /a/ directory prefix triggers mandatory authentication.
You can convert an existing client to use mandatory authentication with the following command:
Code:
$ repo init -u [url]https://android.googlesource.com/a/platform/manifest[/url]
To build for the HTC ChaCha you will need to include the specific repository’s for the device. This includes the device files, vendor files and other important repos which are needed:
Device Tree: https://github.com/adumont/android_device_htc_chacha
Vendor Tree: https://github.com/adumont/android_vendor_htc_chacha
Kernel sources: https://github.com/adumont/htc-kernel-msm7227
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Note: The maintainer of the source is adlx, feel free to fork the projects (if you need to modify them), but if you fix bugs, please submit a pull request (via Github). To clone the project locally on your hard-drive and modify locally you don’t need to either register at Github nor fork the repos.
Open a terminal (Ctrl+Alt+T) and run the following lines:
Code:
$ cd WORKING_DIRECTORY
$ wget -O .repo/local_manifest.xml
[url]https://github.com/adumont/android_device_htc_chacha/blob/jellybean/extra/local_manifest.xml[/url]
$ repo sync -j8 -c
This will download the needed additional repositories to build Jellybean (CM10) for the HTC ChaCha.
Once you're all set up we can start building. If you're not already in the Terminal, open it up again and navigate to your working directory. Run these following commands to start compiling!
Code:
$ . build/envsetup.sh
$ lunch cm_chacha-eng
$ mka bacon
Note: Where “x” is, number how many jobs you want the compile to complete in a second. Remember that this is dependent on your machine. If you have a low spec computer use “-j1” for example.
This last sentence will initiate the build process, which can take several hours depending of your hardware configuration. Once complete the build system will display where the flashable item is stored. Commonly the file can be found below.
Code:
$ cd out/target/product/chacha/
$ ls *.zip
Troubleshooting network issues
When downloading from behind a proxy (which is common in some corporate environments), it might be necessary to explicitly specify the proxy that is then used by repo:
Code:
$ export HTTP_PROXY=http://<proxy_user_id>:<proxy_password>@<proxy_server>:<proxy_port>
$ export HTTPS_PROXY=http://<proxy_user_id>:<proxy_password>@<proxy_server>:<proxy_port>
NOTE: Rarely, Linux clients experience connectivity issues, getting stuck in the middle of downloads (typically during "Receiving objects"). It has been reported that tweaking the settings of the TCP/IP stack and using non-parallel commands can improve the situation. You need root access to modify the TCP setting:
Code:
$ sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling=0
$ repo sync -j1
E: Your download during the source pulling stopped or it got interrupted. What’s should I do?
A: Use the same command “repo sync” and your download will be resumed. However the will be a small chance of corruption depending on your situation.
E: make: *** No rule to make target `#######', needed by `out/target/product/chacha/obj/SHARED_LIBRARIES/######'. Stop.
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
A: Usually this occurs when you have an incorrect file or a corrupted file (which can’t be found) which ChaCha device folder is requesting. Use CyanogenMod’s Github to find the correct file or find it using Google.
Question and Answers
What if I don’t want to build CyanogenMod?
You don’t have to. It is possible to build AOKP, Paranoid Android and so on for the HTC ChaCha. Apart from you need to work through the issues and errors. How to build AOKP will be added to this tutorial soon.

ok, my mistake. The correct manifest url is https://raw.github.com/adumont/android_device_htc_chacha/jellybean/extra/local_manifest.xml .
With the new manifest, it made some progress but not sure if this is okay.

Local manifest seems to be outdated, you need to change the chacha 's git to point to github instead of assembla.

Best & the most organized TUT i've come across so far
I'm going to set-up an event in 3 weeks time (Maybe on the 5th of April) to help users with the HTC ChaCha source development. And hopefully end up with some ROMs in the end.
If anyone is interested in this please post your comments. I will only set this up if people are interested. Also I will host it on Google+ Hangouts with IRC. If the isn't any other easier way of helping.
Join the community on Google+ for more info.

When you see "WORKING_DIRECTORY" it refers to where you have decided to put your CM's sources... It's not the command to run.
In that case anyway, I'm not sure why it's even there.

Ok.. use this command repo sync -j1 and leave for 6 to 8 hours base frame work base having lots of Gb to download
so be patient.....
Download time will depends on your internet connection.
Oki...and
1. Is there any ways to know when the downloads complete.. I mean a command that will check if everything is in place
2. Will files already downloaded delete itself and redownload.?

Thanks a ton for helping me out will never forget and...
for future reference (cause im not a irresponsible person who leaves a thread after finding the soltuion)
heres what i did:
for anyone whos setting up ubuntu and building lollipop just follow this guide, this is the most basic and mos efficient, you dont have to download a **** load of software if youre running the lates ubuntu version (except for the ones mentioned in the guide) -
HTML:
https://github.com/PAC-man/android_vendor_pac/blob/pac-5.1/docs/PrepareForBuildLinux.md
and most importantely and essential thing to do if youre running ubuntu/mac os x on a virtual box DISABLE ALL THE ANTIVIRUSES,FIREWALLS,ANTIMALWARE SOFTWARES (esspecially the ones dealing with netowrking
and if youve already set up everything and still having errors i suggest updating all and every packages essential [java,python,android sdk,android tools (download all the tools,extras,and the files for the rom your building (version) ]
if youre still having porplems go to the directory where the sources are being downloaded, hit ctrl+h (ubuntu-shows hidden files)
delete everything except .repo except .repo (orelse you will have to redownload all the sources) and initiate repo sync again
if it still doesnt work i suggest formatting everything and starting from scratch or atleast the sources or research till your tired of doing it
and never forget disable firewall or such things they were the culprits in my experience
i almost downloaded 70gb+ data in this process but learnt alot
the thread will most likely be closed now

MY pleasure
Happy Building In Advance
Thread closed at OP's request.
Most of you would have experienced or heard of the constant 'Google Play Services has stopped' messages problem, and here I present a fix! Just follow the guide below to compile your own fixed libjavacore.so which you just copy to /system/lib(overwriting the existing one) and you should see the problem is solved The fix from Google: libjavacore.so fix. EDIT: Unfortunately the fix causes build errors on newer Android source code, so a modified version of the commit is used now: thanks @zephiK
NOTE: If you are using a PURE AOSP ROM, and your ROM build date is later than Mon Mar 23 2015, then you likely DO NOT need this fix
NOTE: This guide assumes that you already have a build environment setup for your device in question(and that you already finished a repo sync), and that you have basic knowledge about how to use a Linux Terminal. There are many guides on the internet on this topic so I'll leave it out.
Steps: First open a new Terminal session on your Linux/Cygwin machine
RECOMMENDED BUT OPTIONAL: Do a 'repo sync'(you can just do it on the libcore repo) and a 'make clean'
Code:
repo sync -j4
Code:
make clean
1. Go to the 'libcore' directory in the root of your android source tree
Code:
cd libcore
2. Add a new remote with whatever name you want(in this guide I will call the new remote fix)
Code:
git remote add [COLOR="red"]fix[/COLOR] https://android.googlesource.com/platform/libcore
Code:
git remote add [COLOR="red"]fix[/COLOR] https://github.com/zephiK/android_libcore.git
3. Now do a git fetch on 'fix'(or whatever name you called the new remote)
Code:
git fetch [COLOR="red"]fix[/COLOR]
4. Now time for a cherry-pick!
Code:
git cherry-pick 08d97aee56db51f718544562f5b74671be34dfaf
Code:
git cherry-pick 4fd69cb3de4e52b5b6d78ac61237f914853de151
OPTIONAL: Remove the new remote(Replace fix with whatever name you called it)
Code:
git remote remove [COLOR="red"]fix[/COLOR]
5. Now the fix has been imported into libcore, which will be compiled into a fixed libjavacore.so!
Code:
cd ..
source build/envsetup.sh
make -j4 libjavacore
6. Just wait for a while(probably about 30 mins on an average computer), and then goto your out directory. Proceed to 'target/product/<device name>/system/lib', and you should find a newly compiled libjavacore.so
Code:
cd $OUT/target/product/<device name/system/lib>
7. Now just upload it to your device, and copy it to /system/lib with 0644 permissions(in other words, -rw-r-r). Optional: backup the original /system/lib/libjavacore.so in case something goes wrong or this fix doesn't work
Code:
chmod 0644 /system/lib/libjavacore.so
You are now done! Feel free to share the lib to help others solve their problems, and enjoy lollipop

Hello, every one.
I am trying to build my own lineageos 17.1 for Honor 5X, am using Ubuntu 18.04.
When i am doing "Initializing a Repo client", and get the following error:
[email protected]:~/android/lineage$ repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest
File "/home/david/android/lineage/.repo/repo/main.py", line 79
file=sys.stderr)
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
I update Python "
[email protected]:~/android/lineage$ python3.10 --version
Python 3.10.5
But still can not go through this problem.
I searched online to try solve this problem, unfortunately can not figure out.
My openjdk version is 11, lineageos 17.1 require 9, but can not get version 9.
Thanks in advance.
it looks like i found the solution for this problem.
It might be the git version, i checked the git version, it is not the latest, so update, then i can
Initializing a Repo client , then go to the next step: repo sync.
