Hello,
I recently downloaded the official AOSP source code into my machine and I want to compile it for my GT-I9300,
but before that where do I get the device blobs and properitary drivers from? Can I use CM's device tree? Are there any other device trees?
And in an addition to that how do I get the Kernel to work properly? Do I need to use the CM kernel?
A hint / tip or a link to a guide would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
I can suggest you to go to xda university
I'm sure that you will find all you need for cooking your own build
Good luck

Hello I own MTK6577 based device. The problem is that the kernel source available for our device is of version 3.0.xx and because of that we are not able get JellyBean on our device. (The Source is available on github and its Generic source)
Can anyone tell me how to update the kernel source to the latest available.(i.e 3.0.xx to 3.4.xx or so) Please post link to guide if it's available.
Any Help will be appreciated.
Thank you In Advance
Regards.
PS: I have googled before posting the question but I am not able to get any relevant information as I don't know what exactly to look for ,most of the guides are for compiling kernel from source and please do not link to those guides.
anyone ???
Hey guys, I want to install a custom kernel, razrqcom-dev-team kernel, on my XT925 - Carbon ROM(0614) but I dont find any information about how to procede.
I downloaded the repository android_kernel_motorola_msm8960-common(razrqcom-dev-team). Someone has a good instruction or know a good tutorial to share?
My apologies about my poor english
Cheers,
Just to clarify: Are you looking for the pre-compiled kernel or do you want to learn how to build android from source?
If you only want a precompiled kernel, then you shouldn't worry, as the right one is already built in line with the rom you chose.
So I am a newbie in android development. I do root phones and play around with the system but I never cooked any rom yet. Now I am desperate to build cm12 for my pico. I have set up everything as per Galaxyfreak's guide.
Now I am confused with what should I take as sources? Should I use Kirmaniarslan's sources or wait for cm to officially release?
If I take Kirmaniarslan's sources,in the init repo command what should I link to? Local manifesto, device tree or something else?
Any guide would be helpful! Thanks
how to build a cyanogenmod from source for unsupported devices.All the custom rom's building instruction say that "Your device should already be running the branch of CyanogenMod you wish to build your own version of for the extract-files.sh script to function properly. If you are savvy enough to pull the files yourself off the device by examining the script, you may do that as well without flashing CyanogenMod first."
But where is the first proprietary blobs came from??
How can we get the proprietary blobs for other devices for the first time build?
I dnt understand anything...I'm trying to build a fresh cm12.1 rom for my device galaxy j5..plz guide me in ryt way if am wrong

Hello,
It isn't possible. You need a kernel, device tree, vendor for building CyanogenMod.

Hello,
Well you need to bring them up from scratch.
You need to extract blobs from the ROM, update the kernel to make it buildable and booting with CM, device tree from scratch.
