Hi Samsung told me that they release the source code for this T959V so it can have ICS ported to it. There are 3 Source codes and one of them is the kernel source. https://opensource.samsung.com/index.jsp
Nope sorry hate to break it to you
SGH-T959V_Opensource.zip- KB5 (FROYO)
SGH-T959V_Opensource_Update1_Kernel.7z KD1 (FROYO)
SGH-T959V-TMB_GB_Opensource.zip KJ6 (Gingerbread)
Thanks raver but in the email they said that they were pleased to provide the source code I think they meant the older source code

Its been out for awhile now actually... but thanks for shareing case there was anyone new that wanted to play
Well, I think The T959V is stuck in GB as of now or forever. I know that the SGS4G has the NAND structure different from the Vibrant and the Memory directories swapped also to get a working kernel would be a pain. But I think that when the SGS III comes out I am gonna get it.

Nearly days I get an open souce code of i5800 and I just a new one in the compling world,so I hope someone can help me find something useful in configuring the code or some books useful.
If you have a qq number and our time are not rushed ,we can communicate in this way.(No facebook or twitter in china....How big the wall!)
My QQ number is 361180509
not sure I understood what you mean, do you have access to newer (froyo) kernel sources for I5800? if so, please do share
eclair kernel source is on opensource.samsung.com, and they compile just fine with the official Android toolkit, but Samsung's changes for Froyo are nowhere to be found (a few modules missing, touchscreen and accelerometer being the most notable), and the kernel doesn't compile anyway.

Not sure if i get you right, do you say it does, or it does not compile? If not, we should request propper sources from Samsung.
sorry,I just don't find the offical source code website before posting this.Cause I just a freshman and I haven't got my PC....
maybe I'll compile the source code later.Sorry to make these mistakes.And I'm chnese.So my english is poor.....

eclair sources compile just fine, both with my system cross-compiling toolkit (arm-android-linux-gnueabi managed on gentoo by crossdev) and with the prebuilt one that comes with the Android platform
I might give it a try to actually boot it (but I would need to construct an initramfs, and it's a lot of work, and I kinda need to get back to "proper" work, I was consumed by Android during the last 3 weeks since I got the phone )

You can use the initramfs from Eclair.. I'm assuming you're talking about 2.1.. since 2.2 sources aren't out yet for this phone.
Link for the initramfs for Eclair is here: http://www.multiupload.com/U6GB5BB3HI
This is the JK1 I think - or whatever eclair rom I posted up previously
As per my request Samsung updated the source code to the version we have currently on our phones.

What else do we need now to get cyanogen on here? lol
Get CWM working!
Sorry for being the outdated, uneducated, tool but what exactly does this mean?
I'll be honest I'm not sure... I'm not a programmer for android but I do know someone mentioned that we don't have it. So I went ahead and emailed Samsung and they actually responded. So thought I would throw it out there.
it's for devs and builders. the kernel tar is labeled kb7, actually. krylon probably had this already but still.... good lookin' out man.
So does the source code include the kernel? I want to help get the ball rolling but I need to know whats missing...

kernal is included yes
So are we trying to figure out how to "unfreeze" it?
Galaxy S 4G
Warning -- as Krylon points out, this appears to contain KB7 source and the device appears to be running KB5
Thanks!

HOW TO BUILD KERNEL
1. Visit http://www.codesourcery.com/, download and install Sourcery G++ Lite 2009q3-68 toolchain for ARM EABI.
2. Extract kernel source and move into the top directory.
3. Execute 'make vibrantplus_rev00_defconfig'.
4. Execute 'make' or 'make -j<n>' where '<n>' is the number of multiple jobs to be invoked simultaneously.

Thanks again -- just what I was looking for -- Kernel_T959V_KB7/drivers/net/tun.c
I noticed source update1 for the i727 at opensource.samsung.com. Downloading now, I haven't had a chance to see what it contains.
Version 2.3.6
What does this means?

Not much, unless you are wanting to compile Gingerbread from source. If it contains UCLA3 updated source, it might help some of the developers of the latest ROMs to tweak their builds.
Stupid question: Do these have the actual source code in them? What I mean is that can I download this and look at the code and learn about how an Android OS works?

If you are interested in generic android source, you'd be better off going to source.android.com. The samsung source is not full android source, only source that is specific to the device.
Hi,
Im new with android develoopment so please bear with a n00b. can someone guide me how to build ics rom using the source provided by samsung..
I have downloaded the original android ics source and samsung's source.. I can build the android source but I dont know how to plug in the samsung code. Unfrotunately, sammy's documentation is insufficient probably about 10 lines, just says to overwrite the android source and do a make. But when I run make I get errors...
I've been looking at the forums most of them build from the cm10 source, but I want to build using the original. Figured I would learn more if I tried to build it from the actual sources..
Appreciate any help. If I learn, I would definitely pay it forward by contributing whatever I can to the community..
Thanks
You need to post this in the Galaxy Note phone section.
Wrong section. 1) Dev sections are for builds and modifications. 2) wrong device thread. This is for the galaxy note 10.1 tablet.

Wrong forum and building pure AOSP for Samsung non-Nexus devices is impossible, too many framework changes needed. Android userspace is Apache licensed so this is unfortunately legal.

I dont think there is one for that as that is not an official version of Android. Very few China based Android phones are supported by AOSP. You may have to start it yourself if you want it. The first thing you will need to do is have the OEM post the kernel source code for the device. This will be your biggest challenge. As most China OEM dont respect the GPL laws

Ok
What if there is no source of kernel? Can I use compiled kernel (3.0.13) from current firmware (4.0.3) or this is impossible?

Without kernel source your kinda out of luck. No that kernel will not work on AOSP as that 4.0.3 is not an official android version. It is a hacked together version. Your best bet would be to sell it and get something that is not a knock off.

Got to write to the OEM. Only they will be able to release the kernel source. Good luck. Dont hold on to hope though. They are not forced to post kernel source like everyone else.

Don't you know is it real to compile with another kernel for same CPU MT6575?
Found some links to kernel sources for other phones - seems to be working for different devices.
