This is purely for my own learning experience..
I'd like to try compiling SlimKat (https://github.com/SlimRoms/platform_manifest)
for my d2lte device as well as maybe adding a few features
(And yes, I know that SlimKat is already available for my device) I just want to try doing this myself...
So I know you need Linux or Mac OSX or Windows with this special program (forgot its name)
I'm using Ubuntu 14 LTS in a virtual machine
The first part I'm unsure about is which source to use. (Slim has 2 links) I know d2lte is a qcom device, but I have no idea if it uses CodeAuroraForum trees. I'm guessing yes? -Because the other link is for non qcom
If so, do I download the source from here? git://github.com/SlimRoms/platform_manifest.git -b kk4.4-caf
-And are the commands Shen using here in Terminal the same for Ubuntu 14 (He's using Ubuntu 10)? http://youtu.be/H_ReU-0w4IE
Also, how would I add something like Screenrecord from ChameleonOS like Carbon did or PAC?
I'm unable to follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2547196
as I don't understand it...
Before all of this, I will try compiling Cyanogenmod from source just so I can get familiar with this process..
Thanks in advance for any answers I recieve!
Hi!
I suggest you ask the experts at slim. They are usually very helpful with this kind of thing.... Please try asking here..

Hi there,
as I don't have permission to write on the Unofficial Rom Project Thread, I am asking here for a GUIDE to setup a jenkins server that automatically builds ROMs for my Sensation aka Pyramid.
Is anyone here who can help me to get into the build process for the first time on an continious integration server.
What did I already did?
I have set up Java 1.6 to build a Cyanogenmod 11 and I m not sure if it should be Java 7?
I downloaded the entire sources from github. I m sorry I m not allowed to post a link.
via
so I hope that isnt the wrong way as I am following multiple guides to accomplish my target.
So I wanted to set up it all for the first time to run a compilation without jenkins then I 'm stuck at the point where I integrate the UnORom files - I only could set up a
Code:
git clone https://github.com/UnORoms/android_device_htc_pyramid.git
and then i succesfully executed
Code:
./extract-files.sh
so it downloaded a couple of files from my phone.
But when I do a
Code:
lunch
there don't exists a cm_pyramid?
So I m stuck at this point and I m politely asking for help.(Maybe to accomplish my personal goal of using a continious integration server at least
Thanks in advance for your replys
Nobody knows how to build a android rom for a specific device?
In my case the HTC Sensation?
I would be glad if there where some tutorials of implementing the necessary files into my cm11-tree.
Could anyone please give it a try?

I'm not 100% familiar with building roms, but I once compiled them completely from source for testing purposes.
Do you have device files and kernel in your local manifest to sync them from somewhere or did you take what you need from your phone? Not sure if it's required or not.
When I had everything ready I had to run
Code:
./device/htc/pyramid/repo-patcher.sh
then I could run
Code:
lunch cm_pyramid-userdebug
and it worked.
Not sure if it works same way here too, since I did that when I used Team-Sennyc2 device tree.
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
Good evening, I'm entering the branch of wanting to develop a custom ROM based on AOSP, estrou learning little by little, but wanted to know what is this error

I thank those who help me
Did you follow this guide?
http://source.android.com/source/requirements.html
http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html
http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html
http://source.android.com/source/building.html
What is build.sh?
yes, build.sh
I could have all tools
I was missing the essential kkkk
So, how to build my own custom rom version ?
I want to build CM and cherrypicks some feature.
Does anyone have a guide or maybe anyone could teach me? Because i can't really follow the tutorial on CM wiki page.
Thanks a lot !
You need fairly decent specs internet and specs to compile. You can rent a linux VPS to compile to get rid of most of the headaches, or install a Linux distribution on your pc. Then you can follow https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Build_for_bacon#Build_CyanogenMod_and_CyanogenMod_Recovery if you have a Debian based Linux(Ubuntu) install, just substitute the branch in "repo init -u https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm-12.1" with cm-13, if you want to build cm13 nighties. If you want to cherry go to the root of the build directory and copy and paste the commands from the cm gerrit. You can find the command under the download tab.
Hello since I'm kinda new to xda , I cant create a thread
Quick question
How can I implement kexec hardboot patch in my kernel ,
I found this kernel by the mod developer
github. com/ davidepianca98/android_kernel_oneplus_msm8974-kexec
But cm-13.0 branch isn't available
https://github.com/davidepianca98/a...mmit/af5ef3d76f863f02c51cf860702b01536620ebf5 this commit tells you how to modify your kernel to implement it. You can possibly cherrypick it too.
Hi everybody!
I am new in this community and I am sorry if a post this thread in the wrong forum.
I want to start making a AOSP or a "custom ROM" for Android, I have some experience with "Linux from scracth" and linux in general, but I think that I still beeing a newbie in OS development.
I really love OS develoment and thats why I want to try with Android. (I know that is very hard, but I am making this for experience)
The AOSP requirements says that I new a Android device and its kernel source. (I am new and I can not post links)
I want to know, if there is any way to make a AOSP or custom ROM in a virtual machine? maybe using google pixel or nexus code?
I have an Android device but I am a complete newbie and I dont want try on real hardware yet.
Thanks for any help!

Greetings and welcome to assist. Plenty of devs use a virtual machine to build or even dual boot linux. There are plenty of prebuilt virtual machines at osbox and there are plenty of excellent guides to building in xda university

Good Luck and welcome to xda

I have no problem to install Linux on real hardware, actually I have Arch Linux installed on real hardware and I used as my main OS.
What I want to know is, can I put AOSP or a Custom Android in a Virtual Machine? I mean, modify some code in a custom android and tested in a Virtual Machine?
Thanks for your time and help!

You mean you want to run a custom rom on a virtual machine on your pc ? I think android studio can do something along these lines

I mean that I want to modify Android OS to add functions, optimize, maybe modify the UI of the system, learn how Android is programed and that kind of things. I want to modify Android Source Code but I want to tested that code on a Virtual Machine on my PC.
Where can I get Android Source Code or any Custom ROM to start working on it?
Thanks for your help and time!

Here is the link for android studio
https://developer.android.com/studio/index.html#features
For source code you can use cm/aosp or anything opensource. Resurrection remix is quite easy to set up as they have a lot of pre built scripts to help you set everything up
