[Completed] Help with compiling SlimKat and adding features

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..

Good luck!

[ROM][11-17-2014][5.0] Unofficial CM12 Builds

First off, I just want to say I don't mean to step on anyone's toes. Thanks for all the work so far from digitalhigh, bracketslash, santod040 and everyone who has posted information about or commits to the CM12 build tree. This is not my code, all I have done is disable enough stuff to get it to build and boot. A LOT OF STUFF IS BROKEN. This is intended for developers only right now. I will try to update the builds as I can but please don't expect true nightly builds.
DISCLAIMER: I am in no way responsible for malfunctioning or bricked devices if you run this software. If you do not agree to these terms, DO NOT DOWNLOAD. Again, this is seriously broken right now.
What doesn't work:
-Almost everything
What works:
-Wifi
-Touchscreen
-Sound
Changelog:
Merged (compare to build date)
Open (not in build yet)
Installation notes:
As I have yet to find a way to easily disable NFC for the builds, you will have to remove the /system/app/Nfc to stop those force closes. I just went to TWRP, mounted system, then ran "rm -rf /system/app/Nfc" to disable NFC for now.

bring it on bro

This saved me some time. Guess I'll see what I can do.

There was a new commit added to the open section that "adds dependency on device/qcom/sepolicy"
http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/q/status:open+project:CyanogenMod/android_device_htc_m8,n,z

That was fast!

Thanks for info. I'll probably just wait on that one to get merged as so much is broken already. I doubt selinux will be the cause of frustration right now Also for anyone interested I made the following modifications to the cm12.0 branch to get this to build:
1) Created local_manifest.xml with muppeteers 12.0 branch
2) Commented out DotCase line in device/htc/m8/device.mk (has issues building)
3) Commented out ro.cwm.forbid_mount and ro.cwm.forbid_format lines in device/htc/m8/system.prop (too long)
4) Added missing overlay resources to main resources (copy the missing variables from build/overlay/frameworks/blah.xml to frameworks/blah.xml)

Ive been patiently waiting for cm12 on this beast

This should be in HTC one m8 original development not the Verizon section. If you want more attention and to help people out repose there

Good point so then move it to android development. Cm is for all device variants not specifically verizon and won't get Much attention here.

While I agree it may not get as much attention, I still think this is the proper place. Android development (not m8 android development) is more for universal android projects or new code bases or ROMs for devices that don't have their own sub forum. That being said, this is a build of already existing code so it should go into a "development" section and given that I only plan to get this working on Verizon variant (as that's what I have) I avoided posting to the generic m8 sub forum. Mods can move as they feel fit but I think it belongs here Feel free to repost any info I have here though.

I'm trying to build and I'm getting stuck on the proprietary binaries.
Specifically this:
Code:
make: *** No rule to make target `vendor/htc/m8/proprietary/bin/adsprpcd', needed by `/home/build/cm12/out/target/product/m8/system/bin/adsprpcd'. Stop.
Any advice?

Hmm I didn't run into this. I just used the get-prebuilts command and didn't have any issue after. I followed these but modified for 12.0 branch:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver.../how-to-build-cm11-htc-one-m8-082714-t2860056
Just make sure your local_manifest.xml file has the 12.0 muppeteers branch as shown in example on page 6 of that thread.

Hi compile ROM cm11 for a different device
Could you tell me which Java version are you using to build cm12, since you have just built cm12?
I tried to built cm12 yesterday and I got an error for Java so I installed OpenJDK7 and the it started building but I am getting a lot of non-device related error saying "internal compilation error"
I even tried removing all java version and re-installing OpenJDK7. Set alterantives too but no luck.
So please could you let me know which Java Version are you using for building cm12?
OpenJDK7 or Oracle/sun 7
Thanks

HTC One M7 has fully working CM12 build, and that is in ANDROID DEVELOPMENT SECTION The Op said that he has working CM12 rom for M8, you might ask him for advice, how to make your build more stable and with less bugs. That's my opinion anyways. You can check the build for M7 here http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/development/5-0-lollipop-unofficial-cm12-android-5-0-t2943826 :good:

[Q&A] Guide on building Lollipop for the OnePlus One

Q&A for Guide on building Lollipop for the OnePlus One
Some developers prefer that questions remain separate from their main development thread to help keep things organized. Placing your question within this thread will increase its chances of being answered by a member of the community or by the developer.
Before posting, please use the forum search and read through the discussion thread for Guide on building Lollipop for the OnePlus One. If you can't find an answer, post it here, being sure to give as much information as possible (firmware version, steps to reproduce, logcat if available) so that you can get help.
Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy!

./extract-files.sh on CM11S
Does ./extract-files.sh will do the right thing if you are on CM11S ?
Because it is sait there : wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Build_for_bacon
That you need to have a build of the same branch running on your phone (which is obiously not the case here...)

Yes, it will work if you're running CM11S on your phone as far as I know. You can try and report back.

me too. video play can't work . it will reboot when click to play video.

Any idea why do I get it? I followed a guide.
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/malwin/cm/kernel/oneplus/msm8974'
The present kernel configuration has modules disabled.
Type 'make config' and enable loadable module support.
Then build a kernel with module support enabled.
Edit : I've checked settings and "Enable loadable module support is checked.
It also bothers my why revision="cm-11.0" of connectivity project is used to build cm12?

Lollipop Source - Official Nvidia Repository

The developer site is still listing KitKat as the newest build, so here are the links to the instructions to build Lollipop using the official source:
Lollipop 5.0: http://nv-tegra.nvidia.com/gitweb/?...a=blob_plain;f=README;hb=rel-st8-l-r1-partner
Lollipop 5.0.1: http://nv-tegra.nvidia.com/gitweb/?...a=blob_plain;f=README;hb=rel-st8-l-r2-partner

Cheers mate. It is still listing the 1.2.1 OTA as the latest but just by changing the branch url i was able to find the newest.
Lets hope for some more development on this device. I'm going to PM you soon - I will be building my own ROM and/or Kernel.

Hi, @twistedumbrella could you please spare a second to help (or point me in the right direction) I've successfully built Lollipop for my Oneplus One using Ubuntu, but when I try to set up first repo sync; well see below:
When I run: repo init -u git://nv-tegra.nvidia.com/manifest/android/binary.git -b rel-st8-l-r2-partner -m tlk/shieldtablet.xml
I get: fatal: manifest 'tlk/shieldtablet.xml' not available

Please could you get me on my way. I love all your work and hope to gain further knowledge through your support.
Thanks in advance

I'm trying to figure out what's up with it now. I know when I synced it was r1, and tlk/shieldtablet.xml was valid.
Hopefully I can track down why it is coming back invalid in r2.

Thanks @twistedumbrella, glad in a way its not just me. Thought I was running the wrong command. . Happy New Year!

Same to you. It updated ok but now I have to see if it'll re-init. It may be a delay on their end. The readme for the portable was up a week before the source.

Cool. I'll give it another try once I've finished work. Been a member for years and helped a lot in the old windows phone days. But thought enough of just relying on other people, time to start getting my hands dirty again. But new to building Android. Need to read up on manipulation of ROMs rather than just building a stock ROM. Any tips on tools to manipulate ROMs? Am i right by merging commits then build, then manipulate ROM? I will read up on it but just thought you might have some pointers. Thanks

Best bet is to either find something you like and merge it or try to find something similar and recreate it to start. Once you get comfortable, then start coming up with your own.
Building from source is mostly Java for modifying with some C for drivers and such. Usually when you have a device configuration already set up, though, the C part is already done.

Just wanna say a big thanks to @twistedumbrella. I set up a new ubuntu build environment and I'm now compiling my first Android build for Nvidia Shield Tablet EU-LTE. No mods yet other than stock, but hopefully with time.

It looks like they are still working out a few issues with new updates. I don't maintain the source, so the only advice I can provide is to keep on eye on nvidia's gitweb for when they publish a solution (or occasionally sync and try over), or attempt to fix it yourself (which usually only works if there is an issue with the code, not code missing altogether).

Compiled! I have resynchronized all the project from scratch from git repository.
I'm going to test the compiled ROM in my tablet, but I suppose, I have to provide almost the essential pack of Google apps (basic providers and play services).
I think to flash *.img files, except recovery.img (I'm on TWRP), and then install from TWRP PA Gapps. Is this approach correct?
Thnx in advance and regards.
EDIT: No luck booting custom rom (TWRP nor stock recovery...)

Seem's like there's a new source three version out:
repo init -u git://nv-tegra.nvidia.com/manifest/android/binary.git -b rel-st8-l-r3-partner -m tlk/shieldtablet.xml

Why did you choose to start such a thread, which is very time consuming, when you are so busy with school? If I were you, I would restrict your available time to make an index thread of your own devices (i9305 or SGS3-LTE). I can understand your wish of creating the thread that's in your mind, but you do need/have the time to create and maintain it, which is IMHO almost impossible when you are also at school. If you still want to create this ALL ROM EVER thread, ask help from other members to help you, cause you cannot do it on your own. Nevertheless, if you still want to continue with this ALL ROM Ever thread, I'm willing to help you where ever I can. :good:
kindest regards, kuzibri

I didn't expect my first term of school to be so hectic, I created this before my term started. It's alright, I'll just leave this here. Not like anyone except you and sd_shadow comes here... but I'll try to update once a week.

To be honest most won't bother as not all roms are available for all devices.
Also don't put any fair in what someone else thinks of a rom. Their opinion almost never really matters.

Hmm true... But I created mostly for me cuz I was just going around xda finding a ROM to build so I thought this thread would help.

No sure where it would help but ok. Going around building roms from other groups will not last long. More and more teams are closing their source and not letting others use it.
So if your worried about building then I would start my own project and start from scratch with it. Aosp not CM

Hi,
it's no problem that it will take longer that you thought initially. I agree with @zelendel regarding this: "So if your worried about building then I would start my own project and start from scratch with it. Aosp not CM" Cyogen Mod is a world on it's own and accepted as a fully functional OS. Regarding the fact that only sd_shadow and I, besides zelendel now, only visit your thread, is logical because it's a WIP.
