So i decided to build AOSP gingerbread from google's repo but yet i don't have a device tree. The readme in the S7500 opensource zip i downloaded from Samsung only tells me to replace bluetooth and iproute2 in build's environment. All of the commands that i am supposed to do are "make" and then "./build.sh" . After finishing these steps, there is no way i can make an otapackage because function is not implemented. The question is, can i flash the phone in download mode through the command "fastboot -w flashall" ?

Hey all,
I wish to try some modifications I made to the CM7 kernel and I need help building the kernel.
I followed this guide: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Building_Kernel_from_source
I had to use the code sourcery cross compiler since kernel.org is down.
I have 3 questions:
1. When I build the kernel, the wifi drivers fail to build with an array out of bound exception. I didn't change that code, do I need to do something special to build the wifi drivers? I managed to built the kernel by disabling wifi in the config file.
2. Where can I get CM .config file for crespo kernel? I tried getting it from the latest nightly but /proc/config.gz wasn't there!?!
3. How can I created an cwm flashable zip? I downloaded Anykernel from koush but when trying to flash I get an error saying mount need 4 args. Which branch of anykernel works with Nexus S?
Thx a lot for your help,
Steve

How to compile a kernel
First, Download the following cross compiler and extract it into your working directory http://minus.com/l0zydfa4ncuQP
Then, cd to your kernel's directory in terminal and then type the following in terminal to compile:
Code:
export PATH=$PATH:/home/your-username/your-working-directory/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin/
make ARCH=arm clean
make ARCH=arm herring_defconfig
make -j4 ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi-
The herring_defconfig is the default config file for the nexus s and it in the kernel repo. Also if you are using CM kernel source, the herring_defconfig has been modified.
As for the cwr zip, download one of my any rom kernels extract it. Put the zimage and bcm.ko module in the appropriate folder and zip it.

That worked beautifully!
This is the result: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1276278
Note:
1. This is extension to the Karthik's Guide with Adam's Repo's...
2. Based on my experience i have created this Guide, I have successfully compiled the Build and sharing this with you so some one can try it...
Preparing the system:
Follow this Link until step 4.4 (i.e. 4.4 - Initialize Repository & Sync)
Start with sources:
Code:
cd ~/android/system/
Initialize Repo for Android CM10.1 (Android 4.2.1):
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm-10.1
and enter your credentials if needed.
Download the sources:
Code:
$ repo sync -j4
Wait until it's finished (takes a lot of time!).
If the process hangs use Ctrl+C to break out of it and resume the download with another
Code:
$ repo sync -j4
Initialize the environment
NOTE: If you have trouble syncing due to connection issues, try repo sync -j1. It's slower but some ISPs have issues with -j4/16
Want to make sure you didn't get any connection errors and have the complete repository? Just run the repo sync command again. It can't give you ANY errors.
Wait until it's finished (takes a lot of time!).
VERY IMPORTANT: Now, Lets add the device specific tree..
1) Open your File Browser,
2) Press Ctrl+H (to show hidden files/directories)
3) Navigate to android/system/.repo/manifest.xml
(Right Click & open the XML file in text editor)
4) Add
Code:
<project path="device/samsung/galaxyr" name="Adam77Root/android_device_samsung_galaxyr" remote="github" revision="jellybean"/>
BEFORE the manifest closing tags (</manifest>).
5) Save & Close the File.
Run another
Code:
$ repo sync
Get Device Specific Repos:
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh
Extract files from phone:
NOTE: You need to have cm10 installed on the phone.
Code:
cd ~/android/system/device/samsung/galaxyr/
./extract-files.sh
Code:
~/android/system/vendor/cm/get-prebuilts
Important Things to be taken care before Building ROM:
1. Add these line in Boarconfig.mk
Code:
TARGET_ARCH := arm
BOARD_EGL_NEEDS_LEGACY_FB := true
2. Change the below line.
Code:
BOARD_RECOVERYIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 5242880
to
Code:
BOARD_RECOVERYIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 7242880
3. Delete Overlay folder.
4. Go to build/tools/releasetools and open file "ota_from_target_files" and replace the whole code with this code from this link.
Ok, You are done Now...
Building the ROM:
Code:
brunch cm_galaxyr-eng
it will take around 2 - 3 Hours....
Congrats you are done
Now Go to ~/android/system/out/target/product/galaxyr/cm-10.1-XXXXXXXXX-UNOFFICIAL-galaxyr.zip copy it to mobile and flash it on your mobile..
*********************************************************************************​
Updating the Build:
Code:
cd android/system
repo sync -j1
make installclean

Not yet. The first builds will be only previews. If 10.1 gets as stable as 10 now is, I'll change to it. But there is work to be done on 10 as well and better to do it on a working build first. But I'm also very excited to see 10.1, so will definitely work on it.
Mj, before running the get-prebuilts command, should I run extract-files.sh first to get the vendor/cm directory as mentioned in karthick's tut for CM10 ?
I'm studying through your's, karthick's, and PA's compiling guides to get to know about compiling roms and trying to understand every step.

Yes buddy you need to run it...
Friends updated the Guide with all the details and problems i have faced, so now you can simply follow the steps and build CM 10.1...
Ran in to trouble right in the beginning. My process does not support virtualization (not a n option in BIOS too) and so cannot install 64 bit Ubuntu on VM player.
Do you guys have any alternate suggestions or is it possible to use 32 bit Ubuntu to compile ?
I used wubi... dual boot...

Hey guys, Samsung's repository at opensource.samsung.com is fubar. Team "Hey, just got up" would like to make building a kernel easier for you.
Introduction
Elite Recognized Developer Rebellos and myself decided to make an easy-to-work-with repository. We've applied several changes which result in no fuss with making kernel. It is our hope that this increases development on the Samsung Galaxy Camera. Feel free to fork this repository and build your own with tweaks!
Getting Started
Prerequisites: You will need an Ubuntu desktop/laptop computer. You can get Ubuntu here: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop
Installing Software Essentials
First, you will want to install a couple of packages from the terminal. These packages are the build essentials and git, as well as abootimg for packaging.
Code:
sudo apt-get install build-essential git abootimg
Now you need the source code. Download the source code with this command:
Code:
git clone https://github.com/adamoutler/EK-GC100_Galaxy_Camera.git
Building the Kernel
Run the following commands to build the kernel and package it into Odin and Heimdall flashable formats.
Code:
cd EK-GC100_Galaxy_Camera
make gc1pq_00_defconfig; make -j8;
abootimg --create boot.img -f tools/testing/bootimgpack/bootimg.cfg -r tools/testing/bootimgpack/initrd.img -k arch/arm/boot/zImage
tar -H ustar -c boot.img >boot.tar; md5sum boot.tar >> boot.tar;mv boot.tar boot.tar.md5; gzip boot.tar.md5 -c -v > boot.tar.md5.gz
Congratulations! You've built a Heimdall-flashable boot.bin and a Odin-flashable boot.tar.md5.gz . This file will boot your device into Linux and Android. It's that simple.

To Elite Recognized Developers Rebellos and Entropy512 for helping me to learn git. I usually work with Subversion. This was my first time with Git.
Downloads
As of 9JAN2012 the only changes we have made to the source are to make the build process work and turn on UART logging for Open Galaxy Bootloader debugging. These are the resulting files as of today's build.
Heimdall flashable boot.img: http://d-h.st/x2X
Odin flashable boot.tar.md5.gz: http://d-h.st/jPz
Couple additional tips (for all, I've already given you these on gtalk...)
Keep initramfs in a second repo
Git doesn't like empty directories but initramfs needs them. Some people use .gitignore but this is less obvious than putting in a file called EMPTY_DIRECTORY - This strategy comes from LinuxBozo, who is an utterly awesome developer and honestly a lot of the stuff I know I learned from him. As a result, I call setting up initramfs this way "LinuxBozoizing the directory strategy"
See https://github.com/Entropy512/kernel_n8013_ics/blob/master/build_kernel_n8013.sh for an example of a file that autobuilds the kernel and pulls in the initramfs from another repo. Inspiration for that comes from multiple sources - LinuxBozo, h8rift, and gtg465x for some of the initial concepts, and gokhanmoral for how to do Exynos 4412 boot images. You can probably replace mkbootimg with abootimg though - good idea there!
So is this the first step toward getting a 4.2 Android on here?
Thanks foy you!
Can you make an CWM too???
hi adam, do you think we can activate smart dock mode by adding a 40.2k ohm resistor on a usb otg id pin. I Want to use otg and charging at the same time for my gcam, i read in s3 forum that they were able to do it and since gcam and s3 has identical specs.
I checked your source and found under \drivers\misc\max77693-muic.c it has these option, i dunno if it was compiled in the stock rom, is this kernel related?
Thanks

USB and charging should be 100% kernel.
@adam thanks, i tried making the cable with the resistors, but it didn't work. It said unsupported ADC 0X10 and this should be the smart dock mode on your source.
Is your source for 4.1.1 or 4.1.2? Coz maybe i need to update to 4.1.2, i am still on 4.1.1
Already tried 4x10k ohm and 1x39k + 1x1.2k still wont work. If i connect the resistors, it will charge the phone but loose Otg and if no resistor only otg mode... any idea why this is happening?

I take it this was the site u got the idea for the resistor ? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1953061 ? here is a s3 kernel for reference https://github.com/gokhanmoral/siyahkernel-sgs3 P.S. does it charge the phone if no usb device is connected.
If i add a 40.2k resistors, it does charge the phone but lose OTG function. Check the log and i think it did detect the 40.2k resistor but it is unsupported. Wierd part is, the source from adam has a support for this resistor, thanks for the link, will try to find some clues there

Hi, noob here.
We want to get a 120 fps preview stream from the camera (S6 or any other device with a camera capable
of high frame rate) and do processing on this stream. It doesnt need to go to the screen for display.
Is this tutorial relevant for that kind of process? Any idea how we would go about getting the data rate
we are looking for?
I built a rom from aosp sources. Everything works fine, but some apps missing (no, not the google apps). I can't see the camera app, sound recorder and etc in the app drawer, but they are in the /system/app folder. The permissions seem right.
I am running ubuntu 12.04
Used this to configure my build environment.
I downloaded the drivers (KOT49H) then extracted the three .sh files and run them at the top of the source tree.
I executed these commands to build the rom:
Code:
$ . build/envsetup.sh
$ lunch aosp_hammerhead-userdebug
$ make otapackage -j8
I flashed the created zip with twrp for the first time, then I flashed it with the compiled revovery, but these apps were still missing.
I even made an update package to flash the rom in fastboot mode, but the apps were missing.
Code:
$ make updatepackage -j8
then
Code:
$ fastboot -w update aosp-hammerhead-img-eng.zip
My last atempt was to extract drivers directly from stock rom. The result was worse. The radio part was not working, and the missing apps were still missing however I can see them in /system/app
Am I doing something wrong or these apps simply not work in aosp?
