[DEV] How to build cm7 for galaxy y (GT-S5360) ! Ubuntu 32 bits !

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:
OFF : Any news about CM9 ?

wow.. reserved sir whitexp.. long time no post? D

I WIIL TRY IT BOR
By SOMKLL

But this Cyanogen has the same bugs,right?

whitexp what about cm9 ? when will u continue xD
and great guide
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!

everyone needs brodcom drivers,without it nothing is possible.

Well it's still possible to boot it, so yeah. It's a handy tutorial, LEARN to appreciate guys! That's the reason why SGY devs are leaving, 1 by 1, because of you people that whine! Thank them for the effort!

Without this kind of tutorial and with gpu drivers will you make cm7 for sgy????

Awesome tutorial sir!!

Tutotial is good.no doubt.I said drivers are a stumbling block.

[Guide][cm7] How to build cyanmobile from source

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.
Best of luck for this thread

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

How to compile CyanogenMod from source​
Lets assume you are new in Linux world and you just installed a fresh Ubuntu installation.
I will use:
- Ubuntu 12.10 64bit
- CyanogenMod 10.1 (sakindia123 device tree) - because its newest, and currently WIP, so its exciting to get new bulid with something fixed before release!
- Kernel 3.0.16 for Pico (sakindia123 github tree)
Lets get it started.
1. Open the Terminal (Press CTRL+ALT+T).
2. Get rid of administrator permissions ****.
Type:
sudo su
then type your password you set up during Ubuntu installation (password will be invisible) and hit enter

How to get vendor, kernel, and device tree - search for developers github, its ofter mentioned on dev-thread or his xda profile..
manufacturer - htc, samsung,lge...
codename - device model codename (codename you can easily find on name of github repos of device tree,vendor and kernel)
Examples:
Explorer - pico
Desire - bravo
Galaxy Mini - tass
Galaxy Mini 2 - jena
Nexus 4 - mako
For some devices, example some LGs it can be model number like LG Optimus Me - p350
10. Setup a vendor tree:
Download the vendor tree and extract proprietary folder inside <something>-master folder in archive to /CM10.1/android/system/vendor/manufacturer/codename (you need to manually create folders)

Hardware Requirments and using SWAP Memory​
Compiling uses alot of CPU power, but when you run out of RAM memory, you will get "Killed." error. No, you dont need to buy more RAM. You can use SWAP. Quickest and easiest way is to format USB drive to linux-swap and enable SWAP.
Less than 4GB of RAM - You will need SWAP
4GB - Just enough, but if you want to do something other on PC during compiling, its recommemend to make SWAP, just in case.
More than 4GB - You dont need SWAP.
1. Optionally, Copy your USB files to PC as a backup.
2. Go to GParted (preinstalled on Ubuntu)
3. Right-click on your USB drive -> Format -> linux-swap
4. Right-click on your USB drive -> Swap-on
5. Done!
After you are done right-click on your USB drive -> Swap-off, reformat your partition to FAT32 or NTFS and restore data you copied before (if you have any)

CyanogenMod Source and Device Tree basics​
Basic source folders:
/packages - apps
/frameworks - framework (UI look)
/kernel - kernel source folder when using inline kernel buliding (can be changed in BoardConfig.mk, and I'm going to explain that later in this post)
/device - device config
/hardware - drivers for display. audio etc...
What is BoardConfig?
It's a file where you setup pathes to files and enable/disable stuff, its very easy to understand - https://github.com/sakindia123/cm10.1_htc_pico/blob/master/BoardConfig.mk
--
How to use prebulit kernel:
1. Unpack boot.img using boot image tools (check sakindia123's compiling tutorial for step-by-step unpacking boot.img)
2. Rename zimage to 'kernel'
3. Put it in any folder u like you like (example: /prebulitkernel)
4. In BoardConfig.mk add this:
TARGET_PREBUILT_KERNEL := /prebulitkernel/kernel
and comment out these lines:
TARGET_KERNEL_SOURCE := kernel/htc/pico
TARGET_KERNEL_CONFIG := pico_defconfig
TARGET_KERNEL_CUSTOM_TOOLCHAIN := arm-eabi-4.4.3

Click to collapse
5. Done!

How to remove ringtones, video editor, CM wallpapers from bulid:
1. Go to device/releasetools/extras.txt
2. Delete anything you don't want/doesn't need. So easy
--
Where are "bulid.prop tweaks"?
bulid.prop settings is located in device/system.prop
--
What is pico.mk?
In pico.mk (device/pico.mk) you can:
- define what libs (drivers) will be compiled (PRODUCT_PACKAGES)
- add prebulits (PRODUCT_COPY_FILES)
you add them in format: path-to-file-in-source: path-to file in compiled bulid (zip),
example: device/htc/pico/prebuilt/etc/media_codecs.xml:system/etc/media_codecs.xml
- change some usb settings (ADDITIONAL_DEFAULT_PROPERTIES)
- play with some "misc" settings (PRODUCT_PROPERTY_OVERRIDES)
- Set default resolution (PRODUCT_AAPT_CONFIG := ... and PRODUCT_AAPT_PREF_CONFIG := ...)
I'm not an expert, If I made some mistake, feel free to report, or tell if you have something interesting I can add!

FAQ
Frequently asked questions​
Q: What's the repository size?
A: CM9 - 4.9GB
CM10 - 9.6GB
CM10.1 - cca. 16GB
Q: Can I compile any other ROM than CyanogenMod with this tutorial?
A: Yes, you will need to, of course, repo init other repo, and maybe change few things in device tree, and probably you can skip part with adding legacy display and patching singleton.
Q: I have "_____ command not found error."
A: Make sure you done all steps, are you in right directory, and did you downloaded all packages.
Q: I have "Killed." error during compiling.
A: Check if you met have enough RAM (read 2nd post of this thread)
Q: I have any other error during compiling
A: Post your problem on this thread

[wip] mtk6577 alps sources and kitkat dev

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)

I don'y have the device but my neighbour has since i can't use his phone all day i can just help by making device tree for CM11 and try and add patches which were made for MT6589
I an not sure if this can work the only thing is @bindassdost you sync the sources and try we can make a organisation on Github and submit the patches

brother i cant sync sources my net is slow (256kbps) only it took me 7 days to download 2.7gb compressed souorces i dont know how long it will take to sync 9gb sources to github thats why i wrote everything that i did so that someone with good speed do the task
thats the reson i cant procede further as cm sources are also huge arround 10gb but i can help if someone else do this

First try the build output coming from these sources as they will be 4.1.2 so you don't require any special Recovery for now so try that

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

Change module to be y at defconfig
Also image it's the kernel
Image vs zImage ... You can google it
Also ,micode source code it's full of bugs

Yeah what he said. Checkout these repos if you need to compile a kernel:
http://gitlab.com/webhaikal/SenseiFerrari
http://github.com/Ferrari-Dev-Team/android_kernel_xiaomi_ferrari

yeah i gone through your sensie kernel repo and found that i have to use dtbToolCM to make boot.img so i did it and stuck here...
DTB combiner:
Input directory: '/home/rushabh/KernelDevelopment/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource-ferrari-l-oss/arch/arm64/boot/dts/'
Output file: '/home/rushabh/KernelDevelopment/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource-ferrari-l-oss/arch/arm64/boot/dt.img'
Searching subdir: /home/rushabh/KernelDevelopment/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource-ferrari-l-oss/arch/arm64/boot/dts/include/ ...
=> Found 0 unique DTB(s)
as i have read various threads but can not able to fix this. i have used dtbToolCm and dtbtool (version -3 and -2) also same result..
Really i should had not start making my first kernel with MI...
or it will make me learn more and more..
hahahaha:silly:

the easy steps to make a new kernel
use the entirely CM source code
then just type "make bootimage"
