If u dont know what CIFS and TUN are,u probably don't need it
Instructions:
1)Extract the modules inside the zip to,say, /system/lib/modules
2)Fire up terminal and type this command
Code:
insmod /system/lib/modules/tun.ko
insmod /system/lib/modules/cifs.ko
Same procedure to load PPP Modules,just change the names
DONE!
Note:If u use above method ,u need to execute above commands on every reboot!
if u want to avoid that hassle,use an app on XDA called "MODULE LOADER"(Google it/Use Search) and bamm..done!

How did you compile those libs?
Would it be possible to port the liblights for BLN mod?
I tried to load the SII GT9100 libs and the original GT9000 ones but they don't work... or do I need a customized kernel for those?

These aren't libs,they are loadable modules compiled from source
manveru0 already tried BLN,he said that it freezes the phone..
try to load DHD liblights...who knows they might work!..of course with some changes in kernel(add bln.c).....pm me
i saw u posted in Droidzone's thread, so just to give u a lil tip, if u have any questions about kernels there is one guy to ask, snq- , he is the God of all kernel devs, i've had my desire for over a year and i saw most of his work, trust me the whole HTC community (not just the desire section) knows who he is
Hei,
what do i need to compile these?
i'm comfortable using ubuntu linux and compiling, but i need to compile the tun.ko for a honeycomb tablet.
are the general android sources from google enough or do i need device specific?
Can you give me short a step by step? (just the steps and sources, i have already compiled modules on my own for ubuntu)
thx in advance
is this tun.ko module works with openvpn? because i saw some blogs posted about this stuff and for tun.ko module to be worked with openvpn, it must be the same with the kernel....is this correct? please help me with this stuff...really appreciated it!
-corrupt1234
@corrupt:yes,this tun.ko is for openVPN
@cheefy:i will pm u when i come back from school
@rayiskon:i know that guy...he overclocked a phone w/o the kernel source.epic!

It wasn't just about overclocking, he added modules, managed to fix the compass with a hack (bear in mind that even HTC couldn't release a fixed compass version), fixed 720p recording, all that on a closed source kernel . he also managed to get the sense 3.0 lockscreen (ring + 4 icons) to work on desire. not to mention his earlier work with extended power menu, battery circle icons etc...

Hi again, dude, one question...is your tun.ko works with any stock roms like zksp and etc? i haven't tried with your ROM though, need to test with stocks first...i'll be happy if it works!!!!

Of course it does
Ok, so i've downloaded your tun.ko and after hours setting up with openvpn....it's finally working. However, it doesn't connect to the Internet as it should be..so i've downloaded another openvpn installer by sasha from the market and guess what, it says tun/tap found but not working but everything else is fine. Sakindia, can you post like tutorial for newbie on how to put your tun.ko and do i have to put that tun.ko together with ciff.ko together? Thank in advance
They are independent of each other.And i think the instructions are pretty easy!

Well,i forgot!
U have to place them in /system/lib/modules
My bad!
I do It. but this modules not work, VPN is unable now.
my rom is [KPS]★Cranium RC6 Update #1
Ok,let's start with kernel first....
I want this guide to be n00b friendly...so lets start!
1)Install Ubuntu 10.10 or later(virtual distro may work too!)......Ubuntu coz its easy for beginners....This guide should work on Fedora distros,but u will need to download separate packages.
Use this for samsung devices:
Code:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="04e8", MODE="0666"
2)Download the source code from opensource.samsung.com
3)Open terminal and download the the necessary tools:
For 32/64 bitsi use this)
Code:
apt-get install git-core gnupg sun-java6-jdk flex bison gperf libsdl-dev libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.6-dev build-essential zip curl libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev
For 64 bits ONLY:
Code:
ia32-libs lib32z1-dev lib32ncurses5-dev gcc-multilib g++-multilib
4)Download the code soucery toochain:Toolchain
Note:This is an old toolchain.u may/should use a newer one...(optional)
ur machine is good to GO!
Ok,so i assume u have set up your machine
Now,all of the files should be placed in ~/Downloads (for my convinience to explain!but u may put it anywhere)
extract the sources and everything else u downloaded....then go into the top directory
Code:
cd Kernel
u enter into the root of the kernel directory with this
then type :
Code:
gedit Makefile
The Make file will open.........look out for this and change CROSS_COMPILE= "your toolchain path"
EXAMPLE:
Code:
CROSS_COMPILE ?= /home/sarthak/Downloads/Toolchains/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin/arm-eabi-
This will open up the Makefile in a gedit,and the changed values will correspond to wherever u placed your toolchain................the EXTRAVERSION refers to current sub-version of your linux kernel version on ur phone
Get the config from your phone..Type:
Code:
adb pull /proc/config.gz
This will fetch a working config from the current kernel on your phone....u can alternatively make a new one with "make menuconfig"
Then gunzip it and copy it to to ur kernel source root:
Code:
gunzip config.gz
rename to .config
Now,make the necessary changes in your source.When you are done,type:
Code:
make -jX
,where X=no.op cpu threads multiplied by 1 or 2.
Sit down and have a smoke!
The resulting kernel will be in Kernel/arch/arm/boot/zImage
MORE COMING SOON!guide unfinished

novaday's virtual machines does not have significant overhead, so performance degradation is negligible. Go ahead, using vm is a good choice!
Me personally using Ubuntu inside a Microsoft Virtual PC (sometimes Oracle VM VirtualBox). My suggestion is not to use the virtual machines virtual desktop it's a bit laggy, but telnet or ssh into the virtual machine, you feel more convenient.
The only drawback, than you don't have direct USB connection to the phone. You have to transfer the files between the Linux and the phone using the host OS (eg Windows).

I wonder whether USB support would be sufficient in VirtualBox to support the SDK. some USB devices work quite well in a VM.
But i didnt understand what is use of compiling kernel?
Kernel Compiling is not easy task like making ROM.
1st you have to understand linux enverioment
2nd you have to make Android Enverioment in linux enverioment
3rd you have to sound knowledge of C
4th you have to know how to patch kernel
5th you have to be ready to brick phone (atleast your)
so better is leave kernel stuff to a developer who understand this and enjoy either stock kernel or patched kernel which developer release frequently.
I suggessing dont go for kernel compiling if you didnt know what it is.

Important is patching kernel cuz without patching output will be worst then stock kernel

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:

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

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

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)

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

Hi there! This is my first thread on XDA
So, what is LAFI ?
In Linux, the installation of the adb and fastboot drivers is hard or take some times. And all new Linux Users have not many knowledge in Linux. So with this script you can install Adb+fastboot Drivers in 1 Sec ! Also now you can use Flashtool and adb commands without making hard things . You don't need to install SDK before.
Instruction
Download and Extract the zip or clone the repo and go into the folder
Launch the installer script with terminal
All is done! you don't need to reboot your computer!
Changlog
V1: Initial Release
V2: Added More Devices on Udev Rules
V3: Added Moreeeee Devices on Udev Rules
Tested On
Ubuntu 12.04 - Ubuntu 14.04 (Works on Linux Mint/Ubuntu Based OS Too)
Debian Wheezy
Debian Jessie
Kali Linux 2.0 and Rolling Version
