[DEV][TUT][WIP]Brew your own stock-ROM-based Galaxy Y ROM (for Windows)

Hello! As promised to some members of the board, here is my long diary of GG-ROM's journey.
Prequisites:
Your Samsung Galaxy Y (D'uh!) with the following applications installed:
Terminal Emulator
Root Explorer or an Android File Manager that reads the root directory.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
A USB cable for your SGY
A computer with Microsoft Windows (preferrably 32-bit)
dsixda's Android Kitchen installed in your computer
Activity 1: Getting the files needed for brewing (I just love Starbucks, that's why brewing is used instead of cooking. :-D):
1.1. Make some modifications to your phone that stick to the ./system/ folder (e.g. Root access and SuperUser; BusyBox; and whatnot).​1.2. Get your current kernel. (Thank you, Skin1980 for sending this to us!) [Source thread]
1.2.1. Open Terminal Emulator and execute the following commands:
Code:
su
dd if=/dev/block/bml7 of=/sdcard/boot.img
Note:
Skin1980 said:
Write the commands exactly as written and get your attention in the second command. It writes "BML7" not "BM17" but you have to type in lowercase letters letter. So "bml7", OK?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1.2.2. You'll get a copy of boot.img to your phone's SDCard.​1.3. Using the file manager of your choice, copy the ./system/ folder to your SDCard.​1.4. On your PC, create a folder named "WORKING_(put ROM name)". Note that the WORKING_ part is essential in the Kitchen and continue the folder name with anything you want (e.g. WORKING_GINGERBREAD_DXKL2). Then copy the extracted ./system/ folder and boot.img onto that folder. Also, have a backup of that as well.​Sure, there are other methods out there but this is what I did.
Activity 2: Setting up dsixda's Android Kitchen. Official thread.
2.1. Download and install the following (Follow the succession as it is. Installing Cygwin first before Java Development Kit will give you troubles or hard times):
2.1.1. Java for Windows. (just follow the Free Java Download link).
2.1.2. Cygwin. Unzip this and follow the instructions in the "kitchen_readme.txt" file to install a customized version of Cygwin. - dsixda
2.1.3. dsixda's Android Kitchen. Follow "After following the setup for the kitchen, how do I use kitchen?"part of this post. Before proceeding to step 5 of that procedure, read below.​2.2. Put your base ROM (the WORKING_(put ROM name) folder you've created during Activity 1) on C:\cygwin\home\(your user account name)\kitchen\original_update. Proceed with step 5 on the procedure.
2.3. After step 5, you have all systems go for modifying the ROM for your personal usage!​

Under construction...

And another one under progress...

coool bro

nice tute!
Regarding bout copying the system files you can try the droid explorer http://de.codeplex.com/ to copy those files. Just remember the phone has to be rooted. (Sadly I can't test it with this phone if it works perfectly enough. I sold my SGY... run out of dough. lol)

wow. this is something i wanna do. ill try this one as soon as you complete posting all the details.

I've been waiting for this! Keep it coming, bro!

@qtu Bro any update?

C'mon! I got a life too. I got a research venture, a parliamentary debate (my team won BTW), a seminar lecture (on integrated library systems), household chores, and to eat and sleep too (not to mention that I can't achieve three meals and more than four hours of sleep a day). All in just one hell week. Well, it's a Sunday so be on your guard, I'll try to post something here. Patience dear.

All right but any idea how to fix that error?

[TUTORIAL] Compiling CM10 with Adam Repo

Hi All,
As everybody wants to test the build, now you can do by yourself by following the procedure.
Follow the below link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1813924
Still point 4.4
Now include adam repo by editing the manifest.xml in (android/system/.repo/manifest.xml)..
Edit using below command
nano manifest.xml
Copy the below line:
"<project path="device/samsung/galaxyr" name="Adam77Root/android_device_samsung_galaxyr" />"
before
"</manifest>"
thats it...
Do the repo sync again...
Better use
repo sync -j1
sometimes all files won't download
Now you have CM10 build with Adam repo
go to /android/system
type below commands:
. build/envsetup.sh
Now connect your mobile in USB (enable USB debugging).
execute the envsetup.sh
cd android/system/device/samsung/galaxyr
. extract-files.sh
Now you got all the vendor files.
in vendor/cm folder execute the get-prebuilts
which will give you the Term.apk
Now go back to your system directory:
execute below commands
brunch cm_galaxyr-eng
repo sync and brunch take hell of time.. u need good internet connection and UBUNTU with 64 bit...
if you want to build freshly...
type below command in ur system folder:
make clean
then do the brunch again...
Any help you can PM me.. if I am unable to reply i will forward u to Adam
Best of Luck...
Sorry for not saying thanks.. Not sure how i forgot it..
Special Thanks to pmso69 for the wonderful thread..
And as always for Adam

Awesome Kathik !! It will be very useful for my JB journey. One quick q, are you sure it is "brunch full_galaxyr-eng" not "brunch full_galaxyr"

Not sure why as full_galaxyr-eng.. Hope the last 3 is for language.. which we use as english.. Not sure.. it is my guess..
As adam advices.. till now using full_galaxyr-eng
All the best buddy..
Hope after reading it.. we will get lot of developers

The 'eng' flag at the end of 'full_galaxyr-eng' (I just adopted to CM standards and it'll be 'cm_galaxyr-eng' from now!!! Karthik pls add it to the OP!) stands for an ENGineering build. It can be 'debug' ,'userdebug' or 'user' as well, but the engineering build is the best in my opinion.
Edit: I changed my branch name on GitHub to jellybean to follow the CM standards. Karthik pls add this as well.

Whre i want download this rom cm10

Can anyone tell me whats the size of the download and is there a way to download some limited compressed file. Last evening I kept the repo sync on for more than 1 hr and the .repo folder size grew upto 5gb and was still running.

It's about 6-7 GB's the whole, but I've never measured it. You will see the files only after it is fully downloaded, before that point the files are saved into the .repo folder.

Total 22 GB after brunch.. so hope it will be around 18 to 19 GB.. for me it took 2 weeks for repo sync

[MOD][10/22/13] - AT&T Tether hack - D80010d Base - No SQL stuff, just flash and go!
I hacked the AT&T Tether. Its now free on stock ROM and on custom ROMS build on the AT&T D80010d Base.
Instead of authenticating to the AT&T Entitlement server it authenticates to... wait for it... www.scottsroms.com and of course my server always gives the ok :good:
Make a Nandroid before flashing!
Download HERE!
Please hit Thanks and rate the thread 5 stars!
If you would like to contribute to my upcoming legal defense fund please hit the donate button ​

Any Dev (or aspiring Dev) may use this mod for any rom you make on the D80010d base. I just ask that you please give credits. Its hitting a server that I have to pay money for so thats not asking a whole lot.

How I did this...
Oddly enough this is the strangest working hack I did. I did this back on the AT&T GS4 when I couldnt get the framework-res to re-compile. Anyways, some background, when the hot spot / tether app checks with AT&T to see if you have tether it does it in such a simplistic way, it simply pings a server and looks for a "Yes" reply! Litterally, thats what it does.
I set up a simple html file on server here: http://scottsroms.com/tether that returns the word "Yes" and then the tether app turns on. Its really weird they did not have any encryption of any sort of obfuscation and its plain text English, but whatever, made it easy to hack.
So for the file on my server to be any use we have to re-direct the Entitlement check to that location instead of AT&T's server located at "entitlement.mobile.att.net"
So what I did was de-compile LGSettings.apk and edited the following lines...
File: com/android/settings/EntitlementCheckService.smali
Changes:
Code:
Line 217
const-string v4, "entitlement.mobile.att.net"
to
const-string v4, "scottsroms.com/tether"
Line 753:
const-string v9, "http://entitlement.mobile.att.net/teth"
to
const-string v9, "http://scottsroms.com/tether"
Line 846:
const-string v9, "http://entitlement.mobile.att.net/teth"
to
const-string v9, "http://scottsroms.com/tether"
Line 858:
const-string v9, "http://entitlement.mobile.att.net/mhs1"
to
const-string v9, "http://scottsroms.com/tether"
So as you can see it goes to my webserver and returns "yes" and tether works ;c)
http://scottsroms.com/tether

Is this already in your clean xe 1.1 rom?
Sent from my LG-D802 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Would it be possible to have this flashable zip simply install that same html file for the "yes" reply to a directory called "tether" on the root of the internal storage, and then the LGSettings.apk is edited to look at 127.0.0.1/tether? That way it would be faster since it doesnt send data over the internet to check and it wont have a server cost that someone has to be hosting.

As long as you have an HTML server on your phone yes, that would work just fine.
But you need to set up a web server on your phone to get the appropriate response.

And thats only a guess. I am not an expert on web technology....
Another thing I was thinking too, you could also use the host file to redirect! You could try that if you understand how to edit the host file.

Well, I guess that shows that I should probably not even try...
However, I do not have such file after decompiling lgsettings.apk.
I get a file called AndroidManifest, and a bunch of folders...

Nowhere can I find the file com/android/settings/EntitlementCheckService.smali
I am assuming that I am not doing something right, no worries, this thread is not for this, and I thought it would be more straightforward.

No thats fine.. How did you decompile?
So you have a folder called "smali" or "out"
Depending on the specific ways you decompiled may change the name of that.
I wrote a very simple batch scrip on my website to decompile the classes.dex. You may want to look at that as it will be more straightforward for this simple edit.
Look here: http://www.scottsroms.com/showthread.php?404-TOOL-10-5-SmaliTOOL-1-2
Just grab the classes.dex from the apk, run my decompile tool, make changes per your needs, recompile with batch file, then inseret back into apk with file named as classes.dex.

All of this asumes you have Java installed and functioning.

I used a tool found on XDA called AndroidMultitool.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2326604&highlight=password
It does not give me an OUT or SIMU folder, but I will try your method this weekend and see how this works out.
This decompiler gives a file called AndroidManifest, and a RES folder.
That RES folder has a bunch of subfolders, but not the ones you indicated.
I do have Java SE installed and working properly.
Thanks!
---------- Post added at 04:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:37 PM ----------
On a whim, I just unzipped the apk using a standard unzipper (The unarchiver on OSX) and saw the assets folder, classes.dex and com folder.
More than the previous tool gave me.
