Good Evening,
I am modifing the kernel source (the wifi part specifically) working on a CM7 system and I want to migrate to CM9 because of the improvements on the system and kernel.
I know I can get the CM9 source code from CyanogenMod Github repo, but the kernel comes pre-compiled. So my question is:
Where I can find the "official" kernel source code that comes with CyanogenMod 9 v4.0.3 v2.1?
KalimochoAz's samsung-kernel-crespo repo has been last updated 2 months ago, so I guess the kernel updates must be somewhere else.
Thank you in advance,
Renzo
Hello,
When i want to build the nightlies by myself. Do i need the kernel from the CM github, or the one from intervigilium?
Tnx!

Hi, may I ask somebody experienced with ROM building, if it is possible to build fully functional and stable build from AOSP sources if i have kernel sources for my device from vendor?

Hi, yes. I've compiled lollipop nexus4 from aosp in ubuntu 14.04.1 x64 in vmware.
I've downloaded the source, included the proprietary files, and compiled android, compiled with make and make otapackage to generate the zip.
After that i've rooted the device, installed twrp.
Finally, i've downloaded the source kernel and compiled to generate the .img. I've flashed this to the device with fastboot, and
yeeeeeeh perfect!!!
obviously, after this, i've downloaded the gapps and installed.
But, which version would you compile? And which device? All the sources are available and open source?
i wana make AOSP build for Huawei Ascend G6, I have only kernel sources from vendor... I suppose that kernel will work with any version of android or not?

Ok, you have the sources, very good.
mmm, i'm not sure that every kernel + android combinations work perfectly together.
For example, on my nexus4 i've kernel 3.4 and lollipop. Now, if android lollipop requires some modules/functionalities/"other magic stuff" to work properly from the kernel, and you install kernel 2.x.x without this feature, probably you'll have problems.
I mean, i'm not sure, but is only a logic hypothesis.
You can solve this problem using the latest official version of android from Huawei and your compiled kernel from Huawei sources. If this works, try to update android to another version with a custom rom. It works? Perfect!, It not works? Damn, restore the backup and use another older android version
To build android/kernel you must transform into a researcher :laugh:
Hi,
I am trying to learn building my own rom based on Cyanogenmod 11 and I am thinking of forking CM11 Grouper's code so I can merge patches to the code. Is there a guide on how to fork the repositories and how to build the rom from the repos? I am trying to fork android_device_asus_grouper and android_kernel_asus_grouper repos but I have no idea how to build from there. Am I missing some other repos?
Thanks.
Probably you would like to have a look on this thread
