Is there a way for me to download the latest nexus s rom, from the same source google uses to build it, and build a completely stock nexus s rom? If so where are these repositories and how do you build it?
Yes there certainly is. The source code repo is on github but I don't have the link with me. A thread already floating around here on compiling the kernel from source, search it out.

This is just a system dump. We need source code to build for the aria. The nexus s is made by samsung not htc so it's drivers are different.

Is the source code released by..samsung? or google? or the devs?
Samsung will release the kernel source for the Nexus S. Every device has it's own specific kernel. If you go to developer.htc.com you will see source for htc devices. This isn't 2.3. The kernel boots the phone and communicates with the hardware. Google will release the source code to gingerbread which is what we need.

No that is the kernel code for the Samsung hardware. The Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) code base has not yet been released by Google.

I was wondering if we already have a repo for kernels for the GT-P51XX series tablets. I have been using an E4GT for a while now and with the level of customizations available to us, the community has benefitted greatly by having a central location to get all kernels, modems (for phones), stock/leaked roms, and its super convenient when you are looking for kernels that you might be needing at any time..
If there is such a repo already, please advise where, and if there isn't yet, how much of a demand is there for one? I can easily set one up for us, but I would need someone to let me know where to get them so I could "centralize" them

By "repo" do you mean a place where we can download the source or repo, a tool used to download & sync the Android source code and its associated git repository?

I'm talking about something like a kernel repository so its a centralized location..

No, we don't really have anything like that. I can't really say how much demand there is for one, though.

Yea, i think you're right, I haven't found many kernels for the GT-P5113.. but if there are at least say 5-7 kernels, I would be able to centralize them so they all could be found in one spot, and keep latest updates handy

BlameSamsung Kernel
Cmenard's AOKP OC kernel.

Hi *
I've just run trough all the setps to be able to build aosp on ubuntu. Currently I'm running a build, looks like it will take a while.
My goal is to build an aosp rom for the samsung galaxy chat, samsung provides downloads for 'platform' and kernel.
My question is, what should I do with the sources of the kernel and the platform, do I need to integrate them into the aosp source?
cheers

It would be easier for you to use the cyanogenmod source instead. I found this easier for me than trying to use aosp source.

I have the repo setup for CM10 as well, I even added the skeleton files for the b5330 using the mkvendor script and the boot.img I pulled off the device. Still though, what am I to do with the platform and kernel files provided by samsung?
where to find kernel source code?
Can you please give me the link to kernel source code??
HI whats the diffrence between cyanogen mod android 4.4.2 and the android 4.4.2 rom? i am new btw to the root side.
Is it the same of diffrent?
Android 4.4.2 is the version released from AOSP, a Google supported open source group. Other organizations start with the source code from AOSP and deliver their own way. Cyanogenmod is just one of those organizations. Search XDA and learn about the differences.

And usually CyanogenMod has more stability, tweaks and best performance. It's also more customizable and I think it's better than stock ROM.
EDIT: And it's also pre-rooted.

Cyanogenmod is also android, there are lots of things that you have to learn
First Android is a open source and is owned by Google and the sources are released in source.android.com
It is called AOSP and all oems use this AOSP source to build roms and provide for their devices and they also add their own interface for example : Samsung - touch wiz, Sony - xperia ui, HTC - senseui
Cyanogenmod is a company (recently incorporated) which heavily mods the AOSP source and release it as cm source. difference between AOSP and cm is more stable than AOSP and is more customisable Google a bit to know about features of cm
There are official cm which are built by cm itself also unofficial cm which are built by developers from the open source of cm
When you ask about speed cm is more stable and has no lags, so it is good than AOSP

CM11 (android 4.4.2) is custom-made rom unauthorized individuals or organizations, but still a nice feature and easily modified than the stock rom. however there may be some bugs. (I use the CM11 Android 4.4.2). stock rom is the official rom. more features but not easy to modify.

Hello guys is it possible to devs porting miui rom with touchwiz i think you guys understand.
Sent from my SM-G920F using XDA Free mobile app
What? Miui is based on cyanogen mod. So there is no cm with touchwiz. First let the devs create a functional cm build. This might take a while.

What?! AFAIK Official MIUIs are based on stock firmwares, CM based MIUIs come only when the stock firmware is an outdated version of Android.

No always been based on cm. Please
Correct me someone if I'm wrong but you can't base on the stock firmware since there is no source. And cm has.

The kernel. The HALs which are needed for a build of Vanilla remain a closed mystery.

The kernel source has to be released because of the GPL but everything else is closed source. That's why it is so hard to built cm for exynos chips.

Just curious as to why it was easier to build for the snapdragon of that source should ve closed as well.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920AZ
I'm not sure what of the source is published but the fact that the exynos is proprietary of samsung and the snapdragon open source makes it way easier to built for a device with a snapdragon than for a device with a exynos.
