in layman's terms,this means that i am unable to download oxygen sources!

And to mess it up even more,i am unable to download even the stock aosp kernel!
Code:
[email protected]:/home/sarthak/android/system# git clone git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git -b gingerbread
Cloning into manifest...
android.git.kernel.org[0: 149.20.4.77]: errno=Connection refused
fatal: unable to connect a socket (Connection refused)

Dont u feel one should try?
I like your spirit
You never know what you can do until you don't try.
If you don't want to waste your time then research hard before start.

Can't you use a download manager like fdm (free download manager) to pause / resume downloads. torrents speed will be really bad, especially without many seeders.

source is not like a pirated game or something that can be downloaded like that!
it has to be synced to github to download,and that too via terminal
I think it is a very good idea and if you are ambitious, you will be able to do it, with the help of the people of this forum. I would like to know anythink to help but I don't.. Don't give up this project sakindia, I think you can...
what i fear is that i might not get anything to work (like data,wifi,gps etc)
SEE ^^

I don't understand how you would sync git over torrents.
Anyways, post me a link to sources and I will download and create a torrent which seeds @ 1mbps.
PS: what's with the condescending tone?
By google:
After installing Repo, set up your client to access the android source repository:
Create an empty directory to hold your working files. Give it any name you like:
$ mkdir WORKING_DIRECTORY
$ cd WORKING_DIRECTORY
Run repo init to bring down the latest version of Repo with all 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.
$ repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest
To check out a branch other than "master", specify it with -b:
$ repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-2.3.7_r1
When prompted, please configure Repo with your real name and email address. To use the Gerrit code-review tool, 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. The name that you provide here will show up in attributions for your code submissions.
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
$ repo sync
Related
Requirements :
OS linux Ubuntu 12.04 32bits
2Gb RAM with 3Gb swap or above
Processor dual core or above
120Gb Harddisk or above
Fast internet connection ( i have no this )
First download this file
Installer SDK and Build packages by squadzone modified for me
you will get installerBuildRomGalmin.sh , run this file via Terminal on Ubuntu!
Code:
chmod a+x ~/installerBuildpackages.sh
installerBuildpackages.sh
Create the Directories
You will need to set up some directories in your build environment.
To create them:
mkdir -p ~/bin
mkdir -p ~/android/system
Install the Repository
Enter the following to download make executable the "repo" binary:
curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
NOTE: You may need to reboot for these changes to take effect.
Now enter the following to initialize the repository:
cd ~/android/system/
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b gingerbread
repo sync -j16
Device repo !
clone its
choose branch master
put on device tree or replace totoro folder on device tree
(/device/samsung/totoro)
Vender folder clone its
pu on vendor folder !
(/vendor/samsung/totoro)
Download RomManager
NOTE: This only needs to be done when an update to RomManager is released. If you are-up-to date, you may skip to Building CyanogenMod.
Download RomManager which is needed by the build:
~/android/system/vendor/cyanogen/get-rommanager
Configure Build & Compile
Now, the environment must be configured to build and the ROM compiled, from code, for the Galaxys2.
. build/envsetup.sh && brunch totoro
Notes :
based on tutorial for galaxy mini by squadzone
the device repo created for me ( add credits if you use its )
sorry bad english !
changelog :
1.0
-initial tutorial for cm7 galaxy y ( may need some modifications! )
reserved for more updates if necessary !
Thanks for this buddy :good:

This message is COPYRIGHTED to me and stolen from:My post
Cyanogen 7/9 only get developed again when the gpu driver become released
Awesome tutorial sir...
Just one question...if we still have GPU restrictions while compiling CM7/9/10, then what is the use of the tutorial? Is there any update I should be aware of?
I'm not at all disrespecting OP's efforts...I respect him...he is doing commendable job for this device..hat's off! this question is just out of curiosity!

MANY GREEEEETZ!!!
Hello guys i'm here with my first guide of how to build cyanmobile from source for galaxy fit ......
As you all might know cyanmobile went opensource thanks to squadzone now we can compile it from source with our own modifiactions.....
Requirements
1)Linux machine (recommended 64bit and ubuntu) with atleast 50gb free space
2)Common sense of how to use google and fix errors
3)Basic knowledge of git and its commands
4)A possibilty of bricking your fit
5)A fast and stable internet connection
now lets get started
Assuming we have linux installed
installing required build packages
from terminal
HTML:
sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf libsdl1.2-dev libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.6-dev squashfs-tools build-essential zip curl libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev sun-java6-jdk pngcrush schedtool
Note:- All the packages are important dont skip any of them
now making the directories to download the source
HTML:
mkdir -p ~/bin
mkdir -p ~/android/system
here mkdir stands for make directory
~ refers to your home folder (incase if you are a beginner)
Next
making the repo command executable
copy paste this terminal
HTML:
curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
Reboot your system after executing this
This defines the repo command or the repo command usable on your machine
chmod is giving permissions to the folder a+x is the permissions given don't go deep into this.
Next
Downloading the source
i will be referring execute to copy pasting in the terminal
HTML:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanMobile/android_cyanmobile.git -b gingerbread
now
repo sync
alternatives
repo sync -jx
here x can be anything depends on your internet speed ther will x number of simultaneous download if you use the arguement
like if you use
repo sync -j4
There will 4 downloads going on simulatneously
Next after the source has been downloaded you will find someting like this...
syncing working tree 100
now you have the source downloaded
Preparing the build environment
install java jdk6 or jdk 5 using this tutorial
http://codingforme.wordpress.com/2012/05/14/installing-oracle-java-jdk-6-or-7-on-ubuntu-12-04/
Install the android sdk following this tutorial
http://www.howtoforge.com/setting-up-an-android-app-build-environment-with-eclipse-android-sdk-phonegap-ubuntu-11.04
not testsed on jdk 7 so better use 6 or 5
fix its path using "export PATH=$PATH:"ur sdk path""
ur sdk path depends on where you install it
install adb using this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=921169
Connect your phone with usb debugging enabled and execute this
preferable do this when you are on a cm based rom ..
HTML:
adb devices
if you see something like this its working for you
HTML:
List of devices attached
S5670efac482b device
now go to device > samsung > beni execute extract-files.sh as root use sudo and drag that to terminal and hit enter
now cd into the root of your source folder
HTML:
cd ~/android/system
then
HTML:
source buid/envsetup.sh
HTML:
lunch
you will see all the build properties something like this
HTML:
PLATFORM_VERSION_CODENAME=REL
PLATFORM_VERSION=2.3.8
TARGET_PRODUCT=cyanogen_beni
TARGET_BUILD_VARIANT=eng
TARGET_SIMULATOR=false
TARGET_BUILD_TYPE=release
TARGET_BUILD_APPS=
TARGET_ARCH=arm
TARGET_ARCH_VARIANT=armv6-vfp
HOST_ARCH=x86
HOST_OS=linux
HOST_BUILD_TYPE=release
BUILD_ID=GINGERBREAD
now type make -jx otapackage
x depends on your hardware more it is faster the build
you will find the built one in out/samsung/beni /cm--xxx.zip
Flash it and enjoy

Nice guide ajay :good:
Its same as the building of cyanogenmod. But to continue this thread u have to first build a copy too for promoting this and the errors while building , so start repo syncing. I am syncing the jelleybean now.

Bump
I wanna try to port this ROM to the LG e739, but I have no idea what to do at this point. I downloaded the sources, but the device tree I have from cm7.2 is just plain, it lacks everything else the other devices have and to be honest I'm overwhelmed. Any help is greatly appreciated
This a project to port Android 4.1.1 with Sense 4+ to HTC Sensation and to fix the bugs. This is open to anyone.
If you would like to contribute to this open project shoot me a PM or post in this thread so I can add you to the project on github and the contributors list.
Software Information:
Android 4.1.1 JellyBean
HTC Sense 4+
HTC Ville C2 base 3.19.401.101
Kernel: PyramidION 0.1.1 by SebastianFM (0.1.2 won't work on any other ROM but Viper due to SebastianFM adding a check for Viper in the kernel code)
Details:
Bugs
Audio
Bluetooth
Camera
Long press home brings up Google Now instead of Recent Apps
If there are any other issues please open a new issue in the OpenSense github issue tracker here >>> https://github.com/OpenSense/OpenSense/issues
Additional Information:
Feel free to use this as you wish, we hold no rights over this. You don't need to ask permission to use it either. All that we ask is that if you use files from here and manage to fix one of the bugs, you share that fix so the community as a whole can benefit from it.
Warning:
This is not meant as a users ROM, it is meant as a developers ROM so don't expect any fancy bells and whistles. The aim of this project is to fix the bugs, not pander to user requests.
More Information:
Why are we doing this?
Well its simple really, sharing is caring and with more developers' input, hopefully we can fix the remaining bugs.. Anyone is welcome to join, kernel developers, ROM developers, general hackers, end users... anyone so long as they will actively help fix the remaining bugs.
Why use github?
Because its easy to use across all OS's. You don't have to run a linux distro to use it, I've been using Windows 8 and Git Gui to push commits, it works fine. There is a complete guide to basic github and commands in this thread written by eagleeyetom. In post 2 I've done a quick and easy tutorial on setting up Git and Git Gui on Windows.Contributors:

How to get Git running on Windows
1. Download Git from here >>> http://git-scm.com/download/win
2. Open the installer
3. Click "Next" for the first 3 stages of the installer
4. When you get to the "Adjusting your PATH environment" bit, make sure to choose the 2nd option "Run Git from the Windows Command Prompt" then click next
5. On the "Choosing the SSH executable" screen select "Use OpenSSH" and click next.
6. IMPORTANT - On the "Configuring the line ending conversions" screen make sure to choose "Checkout as-is, commit as-is". Failure to do this step really messes things up with the file encoding so just don't mess it up.
7. Continue through the installer

Best Devs will make the Best ROM !
This is a PURE AOSP ROM build guide. I have opted not to post an actual AOSP ROM based on 6.0.0 due to the fact I just dont care for it much. The instructions are up to date as of 10/21/2015
Deprecated-> This thread is about learning to build your own ROM following the instructions in post #2. The ROM posted in this thread is for example output. Feel free to download and use the ROMS @GROGG88 and I build! Feel free to try and build your own. We will try to help!
Quick Change Log
10/21 - Updated guide to reflect Android version 6.0.0_r1. No ROM for download (at this time).
1/17 - Updated build with official 5.0.2 Binaries. Fixed Browser "Settings" crash.
12/19 - Updated my Flo builds to Android 5.0.2_r1
12/9 - Updated my Flo build. Will not be doing a Deb Build any more.
12/2 @GROGG88 has updated his builds. I have not! I will update tomorrow. I did however get thefactory stock rooted ROM up HERE!
11/18 - @GROGG88 and I have joined forces to create two ROMS! I will be creating PURE AOSP ROMS and he will be creating Modified ROMS with many useful features! Each ROM can als be user built because all commits are shared in post #2!!!
11/15 - B8 - Updated the 5.0.0_r6. Deb is only using preview binaries due to lack of final binary files.
11/14 - B7 - Updated the 5.0.0_r5. Deb is only using preview binaries due to lack of final binary files.
11/10 - B6 - File system install instead of block install, Added Google Location Services to framework, Fixed a root issue that couple DEB users were having
11/9 - B5 - Changed wallpaper again. Fixed stock recovery at source level (Thanks to @Gnome and @GROGG88)
11/8 - B4 - Changed wallpaper to android 5 Wallpaper, fixed reverting to stock recovery (No need for save-recovery.zip), pre-rooted boot.img (No need for extra boot.img!)
11/7 - B3 - Removed it. Bad files. Reverted back to Build 2.
11/5 - B2 -- Fixed MTP bug that google has left in every version of AOSP, made ROM recovery flashable and added 2 zips to the OP
11/4 - B1 - Update to 5.0.0_r2. PC install via fastboot
Additional Downloads

Ubuntu 14.04 Set up and Build Guide
Updated 11/05/2014
Feel free to ask any questions about the build process. Do not ask questions about Ubuntu!
This guide assumes the following
Have Ubuntu 14.04 setup, fully operation, and up to date. Hard Machine or Virtual, makes no difference. Must meet the minimum specs for compiling. Info from Google HERE
Understand terminal command line entry as this is all command line processors.
You are not here to ask for help with Linux, only the Android build process!
Add Java
Code:
sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk
Add Build tools (Adds the required packages at the time of this posting)
Code:
sudo apt-get install git gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential \
zip curl libc6-dev libncurses5-dev:i386 x11proto-core-dev \
libx11-dev:i386 libreadline6-dev:i386 libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 \
libgl1-mesa-dev g++-multilib mingw32 tofrodos \
python-markdown libxml2-utils xsltproc zlib1g-dev:i386
Add Repo command (Syncs Google Repository with your local machine)
Code:
mkdir ~/bin && curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo && chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
Add bin folder to path for repo command (After you do this close Terminal and re-open to institute changes (easy way))
Code:
sudo gedit .bashrc
export PATH=~/bin:$PATH <-(add to end of bashrc)
Identify Yourself to the Repo (One day you may make commits so think about that when choosing your info!)
Code:
git config --global user.email "[email protected]"
git config --global user.name "yourpreferredusername"
Synch Repo (Download source... Sit back and grab a pop and a sandwich...)
Code:
mkdir ~/AOSP
cd ~/AOSP
repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-6.0.0_r1

Notes
The ROM build will be a PURE AOSP ROM with no Gapps at all. See links in post #1 to PA Gapps for a good set of Google Apps!
The ROM will also have terminal level SU. So becareful! In other words its fully rooted and could be open to vulnerabilities. Flash your favorite Superuser Package if you need it. I dont. I recommend SuperSU by @Chainfire HERE. Download the flashable zip and flash after you flash ROM.
make -j8 is the number of worker threads that the make command will use to build. To me 8 is a safe number for an i7 processors. For an i5 Processor I would use -j4. I have experimented with a multitude of different values and it seems to me that the number of logical cores is also the best number to use with the make command.
Google recommends between -j24 and -j32 (to me that is excessive and causes my machine to error out every once in a while). Keep in mind the higher you push the more load the CPU will undertake. If your O/C'ing real hard you better have some nice cooling! I had to cut back OC on my 4770k from 4.65 to 4.4 with a Corsair H60 cooler just so it wouldn't over heat. When in doubt start low.
My i7 machine clocked at 4.4 and 16 gigs of RAM on a Samsung 840 Pro 256 Gig SSD take about 38 minutes to build the entire ROM.
With a 50 Meg download link it took maybe 30 to 45 minutes to sync the repo.

I think its the same error some other folks are facing. Rascarlo and a few others would release their AOSP builds but it appears this blocks them from releasing. Read this over on a few pages on a few ROMs in this neighborhood.

Can anyone post a snippet of logcat during the crash? Particular the actually error itself.
Place it in the

box if you can.
If not I get out of work in a few hours and can look then...

Nice to see you venturing into new projects. Most people start with CM since its not to hard to compile, but you did it the opposite way which will make all the difference in the end

IMHO: If you dont start with the basics you will end in a mess
got to try this as your clean rom works well iam sure this one will be great also
keep up the great work to you and who helps you.
Where would i start to try baking my own cake .. i use archlinux what programs needed to do a build

Never used archlinux but I used Ubunutu 13.04
Here is where I started: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224142
(I hate nano so used gedit of course. )
But at the last two shell commands i didint use the AOKP tree I used the AOSP base so you want to look here for that: http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html
Then follow the instructions from that page on forward until you have yourself a ROM :highfive:
Also pay attention to the blurb about proprietary binaries
Obtaining proprietary binaries
The Android Open-Source Project can't be used from pure source code only, and requires additional hardware-related proprietary libraries to run, specifically for hardware graphics acceleration.
Official binaries for the supported devices can be downloaded from Google's Nexus driver page, which add access to additional hardware capabilities with non-Open-Source code.
When building the master branch for a device, the binaries for the most recent numbered release or with the most recent date are the ones that should be used.

There is a link for the Nexus binaries in that blurb. Make sure you install them before building and you are good.
Alright then...

Hi Scott. Where is the download link for this one? I think a few folks would love to know the fix for the security fc since last I read it was blocking their update as well. Definitely want to try the aosp one.

The source is the AOSP tree and it can be found here: http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html (thats all I am using).
Fixing the Settings F/C was creative... had to Google to get the answer, lol
Here is what I found...
CM 10.2 initially had this issue as its based from AOSP like this rom (SOURCE). They did not explain a fix... Also, note this is a less than one week old issue. So I continued on with Google... (Google is a son of a ***** when you need it )
Then found this thread on XDA from the Nexus 4 about an update to 4.2.2 HERE! This started to make sense as they posted a fix for the N4. HOWEVER that fix was not applicable to our N7.2 because we did not have the keymaster files on the vendor partition!!!
So test flashed the Google stock ROM /system/vendor/firmware/keymaster/* files into this AOSP ROM. VIOLA! It worked and solved the problem.
Now I will admit I am not sure why these files are not in the AOSP source tree as I am still learning... If you can shed more light then please do! But I do know that it fixed the issue. Was not seemingly prevalent before October 2nd (or maybe it was but thats when it was reported on CM10.2) and moving those files into the ROM base resolved (granted they are not in the same spot as the N4).
Please feel free to share anything you know in this thread.

Thanks Scott. I think I found something rather strange with my tablet with just about any of the AOSP builds. I found this on another as well. It seems whenever I enable locations in chrome or chrome beta the tablet soft resets immediately. If I turn off location reporting, nothing happens but I get no location updates. I decided to restore things using the factory images. For the umpteen thousandth time, thanks to the Android team for providing the safety net!
Gonna try again later today and see if this issue persists after resetting the device to the factory image and reflashing the AOSP build.

No this very possible depending on the GAPPS used. I think this is more a GAPPS issue then a ROM issue. I cant say for sure but I might have time to look later.
If someone else knows then do tell.
However I dont much care for Chrome on mobile (love it on PC) so I use AOSP and it runs well. But have not tested location.
Im sure a fix can be found with enough effort.

Interesting. I've tried the BANKS minimal GAPPS core and photosphere as well as the goo.im gapps in clean flashes of other aosp based ROMs but still had the same issue. Perhaps I'll try the PA gapps next since they seem to have everything in them. Gonna give the whole thing a try a bit later today as well. I'm lucky enough to have two Nexus 7 tablets so one has your latest CleanROM on it which I love! The other seems to have descended into flashing heaven or the other place .
Any help appreciate on the issue though. I'd love to run AOSP on the second tablet since one of them is destined for my daughter when she realizes she wants one.

Thank you very much. Did you figure out the commit in the CM repo that actually solved this issue?
Also, what do you mean by So test flashed the Google stock ROM /system/vendor/firmware/keymaster/* files into this AOSP ROM ? Could you elaborate please?
I'd be happy to share anything I get to know about this. Been researching about this too. Thanks.
first off all i dont know where to start such thread so moderate can move it to whatever place they thought of
now i had some good news and not some good news
good news is i had found complete mtk sources and compiled rom out of it succesfully
and not so good news is
sources are of 4.1.2 and im new to this so i need developers help
i'm posting the steps that i had followed for compiling
DOWNLOAD
1. download and install ubuntu if not installed already
2. download sources http://pan.baidu.com/wap/link?uk=2869617224&shareid=4195729301&third=0
3. download jdk-6u29-linux-x64.bin (this worked for me)
SETTING UP MACHINE
1. open terminal and type
2.
Code:
sudo apt-get install flex bison gperf build-essential curl zlib1g-dev g++-multilib g++-4.4-multilib libc6-dev-i386 lib32ncurses5-dev ia32-libs x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev lib32readline5-dev lib32z1-dev wine mingw32 tofrodos libxml2-utils
3. after it finishes installation of required pakages type
Code:
cd /usr/bin
sudo mv gcc gcc.bak
sudo ln -s gcc-4.4 gcc
sudo mv g++ g++.bak
sudo ln -s g++-4.4 g++
4. now setup java change to directory where jdk-6u29-linux-x64.bin resides and extract using
Code:
./jdk-6u29-linux-x64.bin
cammand in terminal
make sure permission of jdk-6u29-linux-x64.bin is executable
5. type following in terminal
Code:
gedit ~/.bashrc
and following lines to bashrc in gedit
Code:
#java Settings
export JAVA_HOME=~/toolchain/jdk1.6.0_29
export JRE_HOME=JAVA_HOME/jre
export CLASSPATH=$JAVA_HOME/lib:$JRE_HOME/lib:$CLASSPATH
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$JRE_HOME/bin:$PATH
make sure to setup up path correctly in my case java is exracted in toolchain folder yours may differ
6 type follwing in terminal
Code:
sudo mv /bin/sh /bin/sh.bak
sudo ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh
BUILDING ROM
1. extract sources( in my case in alps folder at home)
2. open mbldenv.sh in root directory of extracted folder and edit java path as done before
3. open terminal emulator
and type
Code:
./mk -h for all commands
and type
Code:
./mk -o=TARGET_BUILD_VARIANT=user mbk77_tb_jb n
(for a complete new build of mbk77_tb_jb project)

now i request all developers to colabrate and make kitkat possible
im trying my bit but new to all this and mtk sources are complete mess
if you got any problem or error im here to help to best of my possibilities
screenshot of out folder and generated build.prop is attached
and dont ask me to upload anything as my net speed is slow it takes 7 days to download sources

Hi
You do know that those sources aren't for MT6577 ?
They are for MT8377, a Tablet SoC , and there are a lot of diffs between MT6577 and MT8377 (mainly GPU; max RES; etc, etc )
So, just imagine the mess it would be, by working on some sources that aren't exaclly for your SoC.
Even with full sources for MT6589, the CM Builds required alot of work, and the build status are still WIP. And with a lot of things to be fixed...
B.Regards
Check these sources
