Hi Guys,
I tried to post in Developer forum, but it says I cannot ask questions there. Hopefully, developers read these Q&A threads.
I am a software developer and have created a few Android apps. I'm familiar with the Android platform and programming in general.
I've done a ton a research on ROM development and believe I will be able to contribute.
Unfortunately, my Google-fu seems to be failing me because I am missing the most important part.
I cannot find where you guys are getting the source for the OTA updates?
I mean, I found the source for bare Android and could use that... but I want to start with the OTA source.
For example, I am looking for the source for OTA 4.1.2 VRBMB1 that has all the TouchWiz stuff.
Thanks a ton if you can point me in the correct direction.
Online search "Samsung source code," then click Samsung's website, search for "SCH-I535," and that's all I got.

Greetings all,
I'm just a noob that wants LG to release the kernel source for the latest OTA so the community devs can play with it. I would love to play with it myself but I haven't even finished my math prerequisites to begin my computer science degree. Until then and I learn something about coding, all I can do is this.
I've provided a link here to the LG open source site. Search for the proper device, then there will be a button on this page that allows you to contact LG. I propose that we all SPAM their inbox with requests for them to release the V21e kernel source.
Thanks

LG's response
Thank you for your interest about our mobile phone, LGP999.
“We received your request on LG Open Source Code Distribution site.
This site is just for providing source codes of FOSS(Free and Open Source Software) we have used in our product.”
We will release the source you requested until next week.
We hope this information will help you.
Thank you.
Sincerely yours,

Next week maybe? Here's hoping.

I had considered posting this in General but to me the subject of "kernel source code" is much more development related than for instance, "how well do you like your phone?"
I would expect those who frequent the dev. threads to be much more interested in this than those who browse the general. Just one man's POV. I made a decision and I'll live with it's consequences.
Done ...
Most recent response is below:
Dear [My Name],
We are so sorry for keep you waiting for a month.
Our development team is planning to release the source code until 8/26 because of summer vacation.
Please wait for more days.
Best regards.
Thank you.

Why everybody wants a source code of this kernel ? Why this kernel is so special ?

Cuz nobody got their hands on it? No, really, I guess it could be a great great adquisition for devs. We're talking about a 2.3.3 OC/UV custom kernels for ROMS with a2dp, LG cam (thanks to Flak0's crew) not to mention the new baseband allready been used by a lot of ppl

I'm fairly new to XDA, so I don't mean to tread on anyone's toes by asking.
Anyone currently developing a JellyBean kernel for Nexus S (or 4G)?

Of course there is. Every Dev who has created a ICS will make a JB. Not sure this is worthy of a thread start. Next week things will start rolling in Kernels and Rom's. Just enjoy JB.
Nothing is coming until we have source. This thread only asks a question that even a little bit of logic would make unnecessary. I don't get why anyone would feel the need to ask it, I mean what's their reasoning? Is every kernel dev is sitting on their hands until someone asks if anyone's working on something?

So, I tried to build a JB kernel, but it won't boot. It appears that Google have not pushed the correct kernel source for the JB OTA...
The PVR userspace libs and kernel driver is mismatched.
So, I've requested the correct source on the Android Building groups, and will release a test version whenever they decide to push that...

Hi everyone - This is probably a simple question but I couldn't seem to find the answer in the forums. I notice a section for "Original Development for Galaxy S III" and one for "Android Development for Galaxy S III". Just wondering what the difference is... Looking for a good smooth ROM for my new phone... Thanks!
The only difference I noticed in other device forums also is the original development usually has the older stuff and the other has the newer stuff it'd that helps...I Ann running cm10 from the original development section but I also recommend Galaxy Mod Rom also it has some some things I have never ever seen before and if you flash as much as I do them you will see what I mean just doing the install of that room....it blew me away but no am stuck on cm10 I have been a cyanogenmod guy since my og droid 1 lol

Original development is essentially work done from the ground up. General development would be modifying pre developed programming based on androids open source theorem.

It means we'll be able to have kernels built specifically for our device.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
Exactly what he said!^^^…it means no more trying to force fixes into kernels...possibly fix screen flickers in AOSP Roms without checking disable hw overlays on every reboot... Being able to make oc/uc settings stick better and possibly get more of the S3s stock features ported into AOSP Roms... In general it means greater possibilities for all future S3 development!
I was wondering why there were so few kernels.
I'm pretty new to all this. Can we use this to compile and install?

I'm pretty sure the android developers here would make more use of this than you and I.
So guys and gals I'm making this thread for all of you to put up system dumps, progress on other ROM's that your willing to share with the other devs on here so we can get moving on making some ROM's. Just feel free to say what your working on and post what you need.
Thank you.

I am pretty sure there's plenty of threads regarding dumps and progress can easily posted on sites like GitHub or the main ROM thread. Useless thread is useless.

Not Really. I've seen one thread on a dump for the 7.0 and I still haven't seen a thread pointing me in the right direction with the boot mount. There also have been comments on threads with people saying their starting to port stuff for the tab so I made the thread so people could post their work here and get more help.
