I want to compile a custom ROM for my ace device, specifically this one.
I've followed some tutorials on compiling Jelly Bean, but I have no idea what I'm doing, especially with repos. I have never worked with repos before, so when trying to sync with Google's, it downloads gigabytes of files for other platforms and devices that I simply don't need. I just want to sync to a user's git, and compile from there. Does this make sense?
Can someone with more experience in this help me out?
I'm very sorry if this is the wrong place for asking.

That's what I followed, but when I repo sync it downloads GBs of files I don't need. For some reason it doesn't download JB only.

I would like to know if anyone knows where I might find the vendor setup folder for the Thunderbolt to use for building Gingerbread.
I have Slayher's vendor setup folder but that's for CM 7.
Thank you
Follow the guide on the CyanogenMod Wiki for compiling from source. The Thunderbolt files have been merged into the repo.
Follow the same exact steps as the wiki explains and you'll be fine. Just remember to change the device name from whatever it is to mecha.
What are you guys using for proprietary files?

Here are some links for those who want to compile cm7, cm9, aokp, aosp, etc for galaxy y:
HTML:
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for what happens to your device if you flash
your builds using the following tutorials.
Some of them may be for other devices but use your common sense and replace
device with Galaxy Y
For most of these you will need:
Ubuntu (any version from 10.04 to 11.10)
Some Linux knowledge
Your Galaxy Y (well, duh)
GT-S5360 Device Repos (working on it)
...etc
HTML:
Some of these are taken from outside sources and are duly thanked.
Now, to business....
FIRST OF ALL, SET UP UBUNTU
Inside Windows (no partition required, recommended):

OR
Set up a VM:

SO,
After reading all (or, most of these), you must have noticed how important it is to
make a device tree for galaxy y on github.
So, Please devs lend me a hand in this task

i googled "build android rom from source" and got this website that tells you step by step on how to do it. I have ubuntu installed and actually its updating now but i will have everything i need by the end of the night and im hoping just for personal gain in knowledge that i can have a successful booting rom by saturday night. grant it that its nothing special to the devs or even the community but we all have to start somewhere right?
If anyone was interested my build won't be done by Saturday. I kind of accidentally messed up my boot partition and am putting windows 8 on my laptop then I will reinstall Ubuntu and try again. I came to a stepping stone though as I was in process of making a rom from source and may require some help. I hope a couple of devs may be able to assist me if I need them.

AOKPdeveloped and maintained by Team Kang, produced by airfluip1
Android Infused with Magical Unicorn Bytes--LOL
AOKP stands for Android Open Kang Project [Play of words on AOSP(Android Open Source Project)]
So I got bored and I decided to dev.
Here is my first source built ROM and I have some plans.
What doesn't work--->Call Audio goes to speaker, GPS, Wifi, Device Settings FC, THERE MIGHT BE MORE FOR YOU TO DISCOVER, POST LOGS, AND REPORT ON
What works, everything else
HOW TO INSTALL--> Please be on an MTD rom of some sort such as CM7 or ANY ICS/JellyBean, this will prevent any potential errors that I haven't discovered.
IN RECOVERY--> Wipe System and Do a Factory Reset--> Download and Flash Rom Followed By GAPPS.
LINKS ARE OVER HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ROM LINK
GAPPS
How to help me:
Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
SCREENIES COME LATER

Hey airflip one small comment on the op. Shouldn't toy have people download the ROM and gapps first before wiping in recovery?
Lol
Thanks for the new ROM.

Good luck fixing all the issues.

yea, but if you would have read one of erik's threads, my host gets bogged down if there are too many downloads. so since i already upgraded my dropbox, i figured i would copy it over.

Hi,
Where I can get the .zip for the experimental builds?
Not the nightlies
If these .zip files doesn't exist, how can I do my own? Where I can find a guide or somenthing to do that.
Thanks!

I don't recommend trying to set up a rig to build for novice users. With that said, it is something you can do with some time and effort. If you choose to build Android on your machine, it will (probably) be tough. It also may take your machine hours to do the work. Keep that in mind..
Google is your friend. Keep in mind, you cannot compile Android on Windows, so you will need a virtual machine or a (dual boot) Linux partition on your hard drive.
Once you have the basics in place, I'm sure the rest of us can help you iron out any little issues with linking.

The CyanogenMod Wiki has some good information for how to get started:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Build_for_apexqtmo (This guide has a few things specific to building CM 10.2, but you change the repo init line to read cm-11.0 instad, and you'll be fine to follow along with what I'm mentioning)
To build the Hypnotoad builds, you follow that through the point that you are done with Section 2.7 (Get prebuilt apps)
Then instead of running breakfast, and trying to extract blobs, add the manifest linked in the development thread to .repo/local_manifests.
Run repo sync again,
apply the cherry pick list (after envsetup, repopick <list>)
Then skip to section 2.11 (Start the build)
If you want to use ccache to speed up subsequent builds, follow section 2.10
Thanks! I gonna research and try.
Thanks for the information
