[KERNEL][WIP]Auto-build kernel vainilla.

KERNEL i9003
Version 2.6.35.7 under construction
I created a github with the kernel vainilla(Samsung-sources1).I added a script for easy creation and self-packaged in a tar (ODIN).
github url --->https://github.com/vurrut/kernel_i9003
Requirements:
Ubuntu 10.04 or higher
Build intructions:
Get source intructions(in terminal):
Code:
wget [url]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/962863/gbuild.sh[/url]
sudo chmod 0777 gbuild.sh
./gbuild.sh
Alternate metod:
Code:
mkdir ~/kernel_i9003
cd ~/kernel_i9003
sudo apt-get install git git-core
git clone git://github.com/vurrut/kernel_i9003.git
./build.sh
important! no change de directory (kernel_i9003)
Output
In out folder:
-GT-I9003_PDA.tar (flash with ODIN)
For subsequent builds:
Code:
cd ~/kernel_i9003
./build.sh
Info:
In the "out-folder" ramdisk directory is located(this is based on KPM, if you want you can change it to another version)
In this directory you can add app,su binary,recovery, busybox...
I hope your suggestions for improvements.
If anyone is interested, Pm me to give permission in github.

gbuild.sh is a simply script with this:

#!/bin/bash
mkdir ~/kernel_i9003
cd ~/kernel_i9003
sudo apt-get install git git-core
git clone git://github.com/vurrut/kernel_i9003.git

ohh u did'nt saw the 2nd page but just by looking at your post i thought that u don't know what that command is used for
anyways no hard feelings bro

some suggestionsafter wip is removed!)
1)Replace kpm ramdisk with kpn
2)i forgot!
Also,while compiling zImage,there were quite a few errors...hopefully u will look into those

u might actually want to add latest modules which are compiled...
and if u want to use older modules atleast correct the CONFIG_LOCALVERSION to match the vermagic string for modules else modules wont be loaded and device might fail to boot...
also such scripts are only useful if u have confirmed that there was no issue while compiling...
initially u should just compile to check if there are any issues...
>>>
cp $HOME/kernel_i9003/out/config_old $HOME/kernel_i9003/.config
<<<
thats not the "correct" way...
u should use:
make device_defconfig
another thing:
>>>
echo ' Compile kernel'
make
<<<
this is going to be so slow... use atleast -j4 on single core machine.... on my dual core i3 i use -j8
also we generally dont put such stuff in kernel source folder...
generally we keep:
kernel/
out/
toolchains/
another tip: use toolchains from CM repo, both 4.4.0 & 4.4.3 work
P.S.: ur boot.img build script is copied from Skin's script... atleast keep the original "credits" intact

CAN SOMEONE teach me how to un-cpio the zImage?i tried the script available @xda wiki but it doesnt work!!
plz help

the zImage is compressed kernel... u cant get anything out of it...
u can however get ramdisk (initramfs) [which is (generally) cpio.gz file] out of boot.img
find unpack-bootimg.pl on xda

I'm trying to mount my /system using the following commands in Terminal Emulator:
su
mount -rw /system
When I try and type the chmod line above, I keep getting the message:
Usage: mount [-r] [-w] [-o options] [-t type] device directory
What am I doing wrong to mount the /system file in order to perform the chmod command? I've also used ~/system, same result.....it's probably something super simple, but I'm flummoxed. Any assist would be appreciated, thanks!

The currect syntax is

It never even occurred to me that android is vulnerable!! I hope Google patches this in AOSP Android L!!

I have in /system/xbin an old bash file ( coming with the ROM), I must overwrite it or that's enough?

i hope the cm team will include this

If the original bash is patched (no need) just copy it as bash-arm

[Meizu]-[FLyme Os] Install rom international for All devices

Sorry English my "BAD"
Ground facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1697660883795443/
Guide will support install rom international for Meizu MX4 , MX5 , MX4 pro Version A , U , C ......and more devices Meizu
Advantages: rather safe method, no Chinese applications, default Google Play Services, more supported languages i-rom in the near future.
Disadvantage: OTA-update not possible, (but you can always update manually).
Note: Here's how to do safe , You do not have to worry
Request:
+Rooted
+Busybox
+Driver ADB for PC because run you need command ADB
How to instal driver ADB for Meizu Devices
Note:Because English not good , pls see Guide Tks to @abaggie Meizufan
Step 1 : Enable Usb debug and Allow mock locations
Step 2: connect devices PC and choose connect CD/Rom
You can see CD driver , you install driver adb equal file in folder Usb driver
Step 3: at c: \ Users \ your name \ .android \
Creat or edit file adb_usb.ini
add a line
Code:
0x2a45
Step 4: check driver
Code:
adb kill-sever
Code:
adb devices
if cmd current "offline" you need install again driver
Step 4: download and copy file rom .img to storage
Step 5: run CMD and type command:
Code:
adb shell
Code:
su
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/system-i.img of=/dev/block/platform/xxxxx/by-name/system
Note : xxxxx leaves partition system
example : MX4pro (cpu exynos) : /dev/block/platform/15540000.dwmmc0/by-name/system
M2 note,mx4,m1note (cpu MTK) : /dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/by-name/system
MX5:/dev/block/mmcblk0p18 or you can use dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc.0/by-name/system
We expect the end of the command (about 5 min . ) . After the download of the image will be prompted to enter a new team in the form of the sign '#' ;
Due to the fact that the section is replaced by a system hang smartphone . This is normal. Restart it long hold the power button , and wait for download smartphone. If your smartphone is not loaded within 15 minutes , you need to reset the settings of recovery stock ( volume down button + power button ) .
Step 6 : Now you need to reset your smartphone to factory settings. Settings - About phone - memory - factory reset . Put two checkboxes, and click " Start cleaning " .
Or reboot recovery stock and clear data

[TOOL] Flashize: Turn Shell Scripts Into Flashable Recovery Zips

Flashize: Turn Shell Scripts Into Flashable Recovery Zips
Highlights
Automatically convert shell scripts to flashable zips with a single command.
Don't mess with 'ui_print' crap: standard output and error streams will work just fine.
Can be configured to create a logfile of the execution of the script.
Free software: uses GPL and LGPL version 3 and later licenses.
This is a discussion thread. New versions will not be announced here.

Features
Automatically convert shell scripts to flashable zips with a single command.
Don't mess with 'ui_print' crap: standard output and error streams will work just fine.
Displays the script exit code and reports it back to recovery.
The script receives the full path of the zip being flashed as its first parameter.
(Other parameters reserved for future use.)
Free software: uses GPL and LGPL version 3 and later licenses.
For Linux and Un*x-like systems only: requires 'Bash' shell.
(It would be very easy to port to Windoze proprietary crapware, but I won't do it.)

thanks bro brilliant idea works perfect going to share on my Google +

I'd love for a way to use this script without having to use my computer and use my phone instead. I already placed the flashize script file into /data/local/Flashize and set it to 0755 perms. I noticed, though, that in order to execute the script, that the syntax of
Code:
./data/local/Flashize/flashize test.sh testing.zip
doesn't work. Also, just doing
Code:
flashize test.sh testing.zip
doesn't work either while I'm already in the directory. Now, I noticed that if I rename the file to flashize.sh and run the command
Code:
sh flashize.sh
it says this as the output:
Code:
Flashize (2016-02-12)
Usage: <input-script> [<output-zip>]
That means that it should work when I do
Code:
sh flashize.sh test.sh testing.zip
but it does not work. Instead I get this error:
Code:
mkdir: '/tmp' : Read-only file system
Any idea how I can make this script work on my phone? Is there a different location where I should put this script where this will work?

you could remount rootfs rw, it's a ramdrive anyway
mount -o remount,rw / /
then the script could create /tmp like it wants to.
you might have to run it in a chroot though, cm and busybox only fill so many of the gaps between android and Linux.

[email protected]:/data/local/Flashize # sh flashize test.sh testing.zip
flashize[113]: zip: not found
Not sure what that means.

are you running stock rom? older cm?
it can't find the zip utility. there may not be one.
newer cm can unzip and zip in terminal.
regardless, the android command line environment you're working with might not be complete enough for the script to work.

I'd love for a way to use this script without having to use my computer and use my phone instead. I already placed the flashize script file into /data/local/Flashize and set it to 0755 perms. I noticed, though, that in order to execute the script, that the syntax of
Code:
./data/local/Flashize/flashize test.sh testing.zip
doesn't work. Also, just doing
Code:
flashize test.sh testing.zip
doesn't work either while I'm already in the directory. Now, I noticed that if I rename the file to flashize.sh and run the command
Code:
sh flashize.sh
it says this as the output:
Code:
Flashize (2016-02-12)
Usage: <input-script> [<output-zip>]
That means that it should work when I do
Code:
sh flashize.sh test.sh testing.zip
but it does not work. Instead I get this error:
Code:
mkdir: '/tmp' : Read-only file system
Any idea how I can make this script work on my phone? Is there a different location where I should put this script where this will work?

the script doesnt work because its a BASH script. bash is the most common shell in linux. stupid google doesnt want GPL code in userland android so it cant be part of android, just like busybox cant.
it doesnt start because the first line "#!/bin/bash" tells the kernel that bash should be used to open it, and obviously bash is not found in /bin/bash in your phone.
you dont need to rename or chmod the script, you can just invoke it with "sh <name>". but then ASH, a different shell part of busybox, is running it. it was not designed to be run with ash, so no idea whether it should work.
DO NOT mount your system RW and run inappropriate scripts!!!! you can kill you OS!
ill take a look sometime and see if it can be hosted in android.
but first, one question: what is the use case? no use case, no code

bigsupersquid said:
you could remount rootfs rw, it's a ramdrive anyway
mount -o remount,rw / /
then the script could create /tmp like it wants to.
You might have to run it in a chroot though, cm and busybox only fill so many of the gaps between android and linux.

in my script change the line:
td="/tmp/lanchon-flashize"
to some writeable folder you want to use, such as:
td="/sdcard/lanchon-flashize"

and now you need to have the 'zip' binary installed. CM11 has it. dont ask me how to get one!

I've not had issues myself with overwriting the initrd files even since they reset to the stored boot.img versions on reboot.
but creating things in / would use ram at the least, and I imagine there's devices with overwriteable rootfs, so I definitely understand your warning.
apologies, didn't mean to hijack.

So I got it working in Android!! First of all, I had to change in the script the line
Code:
td="/tmp/lanchon-flashize"
to
Code:
td="/sdcard/lanchon-flashize"
Then I installed a zip utility for Android that I downloaded from here. Then I decided that I wanted a flashable zip. So attached below is a flashable zip that does these things:
Places your Flashize script in /data/local/Flashize.
Installs the Android Zip utility to be able to zip files in the terminal (like unto the utility in CM that you mentioned above).
Creates a command line alias in /system/etc/mkshrc so that way all you have to do to execute the Flashize script is type the command "flashize" in the terminal. This is the same type of aliasing that's common in Linux systems with the ~/.bashrc file.
So after flashing this, all you have to do on your phone to create a flashable zip with Flashize is to navigate to the directory where your shell script is, and run the same command as what's in the OP:
Code:
su
flashize <input-script> [<output-zip>]
What do you think, @Lanchon?
If this helped you out, hit thanks!
This has only been tested on the Motorola Nexus 6 running Pure Nexus rom.

[HELP] Can't flash compiled AOSP

Hey guys, thank you in advance. I have an LG X Power (K220) and I started to develop the stock AOSP from source (Android 6.0.1). I followed all the instruction from LG and Google (downloaded both google and LG source and then merged them). After seven hours of compiling I got my image file: system.img, cache.img, userdata.img and ramdisk.img. It was the time to flash and test the new build, so I used these command:
Code:
fastboot flash cache cache.img
Code:
fastboot flash ramdisk ramdisk.img
But when I have to flash the system.img and the userdata the device tell me that the images are too big and the message “Invalid sparse file format at header magi”. So I googled it and I tried with:
Code:
fastboot -S 256M flash system.img
But nothing. I also read that I could try to modify the BoardConfig.mk and add:
Code:
TARGET_USERIMAGES_SPARSE_EXT_DISABLED := true
But I do not know what BoardConfig.mk I have to modify becouse when I merge the file and go to /device/lge/k7 there isn't the mk file, so I think that use the generic aosp for arm devices.
How could I solve this problem? Thank you another time :fingers-crossed:

Hi I'm also building AOSP for X Power. You need to change SYSTEM IMAGE partition size in aosp/device/generic/armv7-a-neon/BoardConfig.mk. That's beacouse we use "lunch 1" which mean "lunch aosp_arm-eng". If u need help send me message.

Are you able to build debug versions? That may help things for you.

Maybe I will be able but I'm getting clang error, so I need to fix it first.
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
make: *** [build/core/host_shared_library_internal.mk:51: out/host/linux-x86/obj/lib/libartd.so] Error 1

I fixed it. Now I am waiting for the compilation to finish.
If someone want I can upload it to AFH

How did you fix the error?

Modify build/core/clang/HOST_x86_common.mk
android-review.googlesource.com/c/platform/build/+/223100/1/core/clang/HOST_x86_common.mk
If that doesn't work then
cp /usr/bin/ld.gold prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/host/x86_64-linux-glibc2.11-4.8/x86_64-linux/bin/ld
But you need to be in aosp folder
