Android SDK source code

I wish to have the source code of Android SDK to get a better idea of how certain features/aspects work especially the ones that are not well documented . i really dont wish to get into all the trouble of setting up a CVS especially after looking at the steps here (http://source.android.com/download).
So anyone kind enough willing to send me a zipped one ? i want it the latest 1.5 SDK.
Thanks in advance for helping me out.

gonna have to be the one that tells you this, and i mean no disrespect by what i say
if you are too lazy to set something up in order to do something then you probably shouldn't be doing it. people are willing to help you get it set up, but you are gonna have to do it yourself unless you find some extremely kind soul to get it for you. personally i would like to recompile the cource code for cupcake to make my own build(include my favorite apps) but i don't feel like setting it up so i know i am SOL

No one will help you until you can learn to help yourself. We're not here to do your work for you. You can google just as well as we can. So get up and get it for yourself.

If you just want to download a couple of files, or you only want to be looking at files, you can do it easily without installing git on your computer by using the gitweb interface:
http://android.git.kernel.org/

Do you have eyes? Can you read?
Installing Repo
Repo is a tool that makes it easier to work with Git in the context of Android. For more information about Repo, see Using Repo and Git.
To install, initialize, and configure Repo, follow these steps:
1. Make sure you have a ~/bin directory in your home directory, and check to be sure that this bin directory is in your path:
$ cd ~
$ mkdir bin
$ echo $PATH
2. Download the repo script and make sure it is executable:
$ curl http://android.git.kernel.org/repo >~/bin/repo
$ chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
Initializing a Repo client
1. Create an empty directory to hold your working files:
$ mkdir mydroid
$ cd mydroid
2. Run repo init to bring down the latest version of Repo with all its most recent bug fixes. You must specify a URL for the manifest:
$ repo init -u git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git
* If you would like to check out a branch other than "master", specify it with -b, like:
$ repo init -u git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git -b cupcake
3. When prompted, configure Repo with your real name and email address. If you plan to submit code, use an email address that is associated with a Google account.
A successful initialization will end with a message such as
repo initialized in /mydroid
Your client directory should now contain a .repo directory where files such as the manifest will be kept.
What will my name and email be used for?
To use the Gerrit code-review tool, you will need an email address that is connected with a registered Google account (which does not have to be a Gmail address). Make sure this is a live address at which you can receive messages. The real name that you provide here will show up in attributions for your code submissions.
What is a manifest file?
The Android source files are divided among a number of different repositories. A manifest file contains a mapping of where the files from these repositories will be placed within your working directory when you synchronize your files.
Getting the files
To pull down files to your working directory from the repositories as specified in the default manifest, run
$ repo sync
For more about repo sync and other Repo commands, see Using Repo and Git.
The Android source files will be located in your working directory under their project names.

Condensed. Type the following:
$ curl http://android.git.kernel.org/repo >~/bin/repo
$ chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
$ mkdir mydroid
$ cd mydroid
$ repo init -u git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git
$ repo sync

Now exactly how hard is it to do that?

@jashsu
Thanks, ive used the git browser a lot but i wish to have the source in my IDE for quicker and easier navigation.
@everyone who replied to me
All of you has misunderstood me, im not being lazy or anything, it's just that google has provided steps for linux and mac users and im a windows user.
Im not asking for anyone to do it for me, i should have been clear in my request, does anyone have it ? im pretty sure that lots of developers has done it before and willing to aid me on this one. Come on people, i expected you to be a bit more welcoming than this.

On windows you have a couple of options. You could just setup a linux VM and follow the process above quite easily. That is what I do. You can even copy the sources back to your windows host if you prefer that. Or you can give it a try by installing cygwin on windows. You might be able to at least checkout the sources. I haven't tried the cygwin setup so I can't be 100% sure if it works.

... OR, you can quit being a ***** and install a proper OS. Or at least install GIT, which comes with BASH and can run the script in exactly the same manner.

ohhh you got me there. Your imaginary girlfriend is probably proud of you after beating me with that genius phrase.
Now people, installing linux on my machine or running it on a vm then following all these instructions and using these tools is a long tedious process that will take lot of time, it's just a source code for god's sake and not launching a spaceship, i was hoping for a gentleman to help me on this (who already has the source the code checked out) and willing to send it to me. that's all.
Thanks everyone for your time.

here's what i see, you joined this forum in hopes of just getting spoonfed, we don't like to spoon feed. setting up a VM takes about an hour including install time of the OS on the VM and setting up linux on your machine takes about 45 minutes. linux is a much better operating system ESPECIALLY if you want to develop for android because android is UNIX based and uses UNIX commands. it's not that hard to get the source code yourself, hell you could even just get a linux live cd and use that to get the source code, then just copy it to your windows drive.
this thread needs to be locked because this person is disrespecting everyone on these forums by asking us to do the work for him.

All you need is Git, no new os or anything. There is a Git client for Windows. Download that, then:
open command prompt.
cd to whereever you want to download the data to
git clone git://android.git.kernel.org + project path.
Sit back and wait.

Yup 0day is right.
By the way, while I would agree that Linux is the best platform to work on Android, I think overly antagonistic comments like "... OR, you can quit being a ***** and install a proper OS." do more harm than benefit for the FOSS movement. Just my $0.02

[DEV GUIDE] Build CM7 from source in its current state. Updated: 2011/05/16-23:52

PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE CONTINUING:
We are changing to a new build system which will result in an updated but VERY different ROM underneath the hood. There is a HIGH POSSIBILITY that building in the current state could BRICK your device, potentially PERMANENTLY. PLEASE DO NOT FLASH unless you are HIGHLY confident you know what you're doing.
For kernel building, see post #2.
For known issues and changelog, see post #3.
Kanged from the CM-Wiki. Yes it's a wiki, yes I could have created an epic page, but we aren't official yet.
Install ADB
Install the Android SDK.
Install the Build Packages
Install using the package manager of your choice:
For 32-bit & 64-bit systems:
Code:
git-core gnupg flex bison gperf libsdl1.2-dev libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.6-dev squashfs-tools build-essential zip curl libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev sun-java6-jdk pngcrush schedtool
For 64-bit only systems:
Code:
g++-multilib lib32z1-dev lib32ncurses5-dev lib32readline5-dev gcc-4.3-multilib g++-4.3-multilib
NOTE: On Ubuntu 10.10, and variants, you need to enable the parter repository to install sun-java6-jdk:
Code:
add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ maverick partner"
Create the Directories
You will need to set up some directories in your build environment.
To create them:
Code:
mkdir -p ~/bin
mkdir -p ~/android/system
Install the Repository
Enter the following to download make executable the "repo" binary:
Code:
curl http://android.git.kernel.org/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
NOTE: You may need to reboot for these changes to take effect.
Now enter the following to initialize the repository:
Code:
cd ~/android/system/
repo init -u git://github.com/EpicCM/android.git -b teamhacksung-merge
repo sync -j16
Download RomManager and Google Files
NOTE: This only needs to be done when an update to RomManager or GoogleApps is released. If you are up-to-date, you may skip to Building CyanogenMod.
Code:
cd ~/android/system/
./build.sh prepare
Building CyanogenMod
First, check for updates in the source:
Code:
cd ~/android/system/
repo sync
Configure Build & Compile
Now, the environment must be configured to build and the ROM compiled, from code, for the epic.
Code:
cd ~/android/system/
. build/envsetup.sh
./build.sh epic
Build failed? Check post #3 for common problems and solutions.
Install
1. The build system should create a flashable zipfile. Place it on the root of your sdcard.
Optional: Download Google Apps for CyanogenMod 7 and place it on the root of the SD card.
2. Boot into a custom recovery like ClockworkMod Recovery and flash the CM7 update.zip. Then flash google apps if you like.
Please don't flash yet, unless you want an expensive doorstop.

This section of the guide will inform you on how to build a CM7-compatible kernel using our github sources.
Download the Code
Due to the way the new build system works, you'll need the entire CM source to build a proper kernel. (Sorry)
Follow the steps in post #1 to initialize and download our entire CM source repository.
Keeping your code up-to-date:
Code:
cd ~/android/system
repo sync
Toolchain setup
The new build system automatically utilizes the toolchain included in CM7 source.
Prepare to build
The kernel build script requires a few environment vars be set by the CM build system.
Code:
cd ~/android/system/
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch cyanogen_epic-eng
Compile the kernel
Code:
cd ~/android/system/kernel/samsung/2.6.35/
./build.sh epic
cd ~/android/system/releasetools/
./kernel.sh epic
You should now have a flashable zip in out/target/product/epic/
Please don't flash yet, unless you want an expensive doorstop.
This is also incompatible with stock roms, and unless you're amazing, never will be compatible.

KNOWN BUILD-TIME ISSUES
WARNING: These fixes may cause your repo to become out-of-sync from the official repo. Make sure you know how to revert these changes so repo sync doesn't fail.
Error: New build does not boot.
Fix: Working on it
KNOWN RUN-TIME ISSUES
Will update this when it runs.
GUIDE CHANGELOG:
20110516-2352: New build system from teamhacksung.
20110506-1842: Switched to our forks of teamhacksung work.
CODE CHANGELOG:

yes, that's something that we can't easily fix in our own device repo. you could always remove the crespo folder as a temporary fix, but we need to push a patch upstream that fixes crespo makefiles. I will be adding this to known issues shortly.

So my windows seven crashed on me and I'm gonna go with Ubuntu 10.10 for now
I can play with this on that Linux install, correct?

Yes, it's mentioned in the instructions.
Alternatively, you can use VMWare to do compiling from Windows. That's how I'd set up my old development system. There are tons of free Ubuntu 10.10 vm images.

Updated. Sorry for the mistake in Copy Proprietary Files. That should fix a compile error related to libcamera.

Any clue what causes a build to fail due to unable to dopen system/lib/egl/libandroid_servers.so. When I build with boardconfig has generic audio I'm fine, when I set has galaxys audio it fails

Audio in and out works if you leave it at default values.
If you absolutely want to compile with galaxys audio, it looks like ./extract-files.sh might not be pulling that file? Check ~/android/system/vendor/samsung/epic/proprietary/lib/egl/ for that file.

Thanks for the heads up, no the fileisn't in egl and from what I can tell its not supposed to be.

[DEV][WIP] Wanna learn to dev correctly?

Recently there has been some issues with people thinking they are developing when they are not. Now this isn't here to call out anyone. I am here for one simple reason. To teach people how to develop on android correctly. This is an initial post to stir up some interest.
Simply I wanted to try and setup a google+ webchat with questions or comments. How-tos. This can all be done through a google+ chat. If anyone is interested just hit me up on google+ and watch out for the invites it will be in about 2 weeks.
I will be updating this OP with tons of android tips and tricks I have picked up. Currently finshing the first draft in a few minutes.
Thanks!
============
Installing the android sdk and getting adb working.
NOTE: You will need to install java before this will work correctly.
Code:
wget http://dl.google.com/android/android-sdk_r12-linux_x86.tgz
tar xvf android-sdk_r12-linux_x86.tgz
mkdir $HOME/.sdk
mv android-sdk-linux_x86/ $HOME/.sdk/android-sdk/
echo "
#Android Paths
export PATH='$HOME/.sdk/android-sdk/tools/:$HOME/.sdk/android-sdk/platform-tools/:${PATH}'
#Adb Alias
alias start-adb='sudo $HOME/.sdk/android-sdk/platform-tools/./adb start-server'
alias kill-adb='sudo $HOME/.sdk/android-sdk/platform-tools/./adb kill-server'
" >> ~/.bashrc
rm android-sdk_r12-linux_x86.tgz
Now simply type in your terminal:
Code:
source ~/.bashrc
or restart your terminal session.
then type:
Code:
android

Working with Sense
Installing apktool
Apktool - http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/
All apktool credits go to the apktool devs, I just use the tool!
NOTE: Install sdk using my sdk install guide in post 1.
Code:
wget http://android-apktool.googlecode.com/files/apktool1.4.1.tar.bz2
wget http://android-apktool.googlecode.com/files/apktool-install-linux-r04-brut1.tar.bz2
tar -jxvf apktool-install-linux-r04-brut1.tar.bz2
tar -jxvf apktool1.4.1.tar.bz2
mv apktool $HOME/.sdk/android-sdk/platform-tools
mv aapt $HOME/.sdk/android-sdk/platform-tools
mv apktool.jar $HOME/.sdk/android-sdk/platform-tools
rm apktool-install-linux-r04-brut1.tar.bz2
rm apktool1.4.1.tar.bz2
Now if your sdk is setup like mine and you placed it in this folding after following my sdk guide. apktool should now be installed on your system.
Using the apktool (quick overview)
You can simply do the "apktool if" to your framework resources. This is sense below.
Code:
apktool if framework-res.apk
apktool if com.htc.resources.apk
then decompile:
Code:
apktool d framework-res.apk
compile:
Code:
apktool b framework-res
batch decompile:
Code:
for x in $(ls |grep '.apk' |sort); do apktool d $x; echo Decompiled $x; done
batch compile:
Code:
for x in $(ls |grep -v '.apk' |sort); do apktool d $x; echo Compiled $x; done

Dsixda Android Kitchen:
Dsixda Android Kitchen - https://github.com/dsixda/Android-Kitchen
Again all credit goes to the developers of this kitchen. I only simply use it!
There are two ways to install this kitchen.
- Download it here and unzip it - https://github.com/dsixda/Android-Kitchen/archives/master
- What I do is sync with his github using git.
Note: Make sure you have git installed.
Code:
sudo apt-get install git-core
Then simply clone there repo where ever you like locally.
Code:
git clone https://github.com/dsixda/Android-Kitchen.git
Note: This method is a way to use the latest code. Use at your own risk might be bugs. Don't report issues for versions not released yet!

Working with AOSP
Compiling SalvageMod
NOTE: Until kernel.org is up. This will not work at all!
Hey there, you are here because you want to be able to compile SalvageMod for your HTC Evo. There is one simple way to do so and its very easy. Here are the current versions of SalvageMod that you can compile.
* SalvageMod1.3 (Stable)
* gingerbread (Development)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Please note that the gingerbread branch is the same as our "nightly" or unstable branch. As other releases come available this page will be updated with those branches. Now its time for the fun stuff.
Let's make sure we have all the needed files to compile on [http://www.ubuntu.com Ubuntu 11.04].
Use this repo for java:
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ferramroberto/java
sudo apt-get update
32 bit install:
Code:
sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf libsdl1.2-dev libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.6-dev squashfs-tools build-essential zip curl libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev sun-java6-jdk pngcrush
64 bit users will need:
Code:
sudo apt-get install g++-multilib lib32z1-dev lib32ncurses5-dev lib32readline5-dev gcc-4.4-multilib g++-4.4-multilib
Now we create a development directory, it doesn't matter what the name is or where its at. For example I always do:
Code:
mkdir -p ~/Development/SalvageMod
Now you need to install repo:
Code:
sudo bash
curl http://android.git.kernel.org/repo > /usr/bin/repo
chmod a+x /usr/bin/repo
exit
Now go into the directory you just created. This is where we will initate the repo we want to use.
* *Remember those branches from before?*
* SalvageMod1.3 (Stable)
* gingerbread (Development)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now initate the repo you want.
* Development
Code:
repo init -u https://github.com/SalvageMod/salvage.git -b gingerbread
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
* Stable
Code:
repo init -u https://github.com/SalvageMod/salvage.git -b SalvageMod1.3
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now sync it.
Code:
repo sync
Now it will do some things, could take a long time depending on your internet connection. Go grab a beer.
Now that it is done compiling there are only a few steps before you are on your way to a compiled SalvageMod rom.
Go into the supersonic(Htc Evo) device tree and run extract-files.sh
Code:
cd device/htc/supersonic
./extract-files.sh
Now you want to go back into the root of the build.
Code:
cd ../../..
Should look something like this:
Code:
[email protected]:~/Development/SalvageMod$ ls
bionic build dalvik device frameworks libcore ndk prebuilt system
bootable cts development external hardware Makefile packages sdk vendor
Once you are here we start to get everything together. Run these commands. Then you will use make to build the rom!
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch salvage_supersonic-userdebug
time make -j$(grep -ic ^processor /proc/cpuinfo) otapackage
That is about it! After this is completed go into the following folder to get your rom!
Code:
cd out/target/product/supersonic

well this means im getting a google +

Considering that i already follow you on Google+, I would definitely want to check this out Lithid. Thanx in advance man.

Thanks Lithid. We appreciate all you do to help us.

[Tool]File(1) command for Android (ver 5.11)

After wandering around looking for an android build of the file command, I finally went ahead and compiled it myself.
The attached package contains the file binary (v5.11), the libmagic.so shared library, the associated magic files and the build specific files that I needed (over and above the source) to build it. The paths of the files are relative to '/'.
Refs:
source: file website (www_darwinsys_com/file/)
compiling: Native Vim on Android (gdr_geekhood_net/gdrwpl/vim-android.php)
Note: Add the location of libmagic.so to LD_LIBRARY_PATH to get rid of the "CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE" error. (I use /data/local/lib)

Compiled a dynamically linked library and associated binary instead of the monolithic binary built earlier.

@osm0sis Sure. I'll add in a statically linked binary, but it'll take a little time (2-3 days).

Any luck? I think it only needs libmagic statically linked to be portable; the other NDK/Bionic stuff can probably stay dynamic to keep the filesize down. I see file 5.17 source is available now too if you wanted to update your builds to the latest.

If you want only the system file type, the workaround i use is this (eval $(/sbin/blkid /dev/block/mmcblk0p11 | /sbin/awk ' { print $3 } '); /sbin/busybox echo $TYPE)
In a script just add a var like this
TYPE=$(eval $(/sbin/blkid /dev/block/mmcblk0p11 | /sbin/awk ' { print $3 } '); /sbin/busybox echo $TYPE) and you will have the FS type in $TYPE.

Interesting but nope; I need file to determine a filetype. Compressed archives via a script, to be specific.

@osm0sis I got the code compiled (both with a dynamic libmagic.so, and libmagic compiled into file) but I need a little more time to compile the magic data (it requires running file on the target device to compile the magic data into a binary datafile). Once I have that figured out (either by compiling it or by creating a script to allow the users to do it themselves, I'll post it all in one go (need one more day).

Awesome! Thanks so much. The magic file isn't terribly important since you can grab one a lot of places and specify it with the -m parameter; keeps the file size down too if you were thinking of including it in the binary somehow!

Alright. I just wanted to thank you again for your work but I managed to make a static native compile (~440kb) of file-5.17 using my N7 and a kbox build environment I set up. It's available in my ARM Android Image Kitchen linked in my sig. Cheers!

@osm0sis - Can you please share how did you static compile this? I have setup the Ubuntu 13.10 image on Android using Complete Linux Installer (with all the necessary build tools setup).
I am able to compile this, but it's linking the shared library "libmagic.la".

Need to pass --static to ./configure and have a cross compiler set up, for ARMv7.

I don't think that's a valid option.
Code:
$ ./configure --static
configure: error: unrecognized option: `--static'
Try `./configure --help' for more information

Haven't tried it using a full Linux image on Android, just made it native compile in KBox2 on my N7'13 for awhile by editing in the gettext functions it was complaining about, and have since moved on to cross-compiling on my Windows 7 desktop in Cygwin using the NDK. There were still a few tricks to getting it to be a true static compile. It's all linked in my post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=54510825
My latest compile included in my AIK-mobile package is file 5.20. :good:

I don't suppose you could do a quick compile with the -fPIE flag? Trying to use this on 5.0 + and don't want to patch my linker.
Tried to compile it myself (it sort-of worked, file --version is operational) but when I try to actually use it for something my terminal borks out and switches to some weird font after about 20 warnings. (configure also seems to be using the -rpath flag apparently, linker complains about it) hmm
EDIT: I've got it working after some trial and error. If anyone requests I'll post it
EDIT 2: android 6.0's linker seems less forgiving than 5.0/5.1, need to compile without -rpath (so no just using ./configure) will keep posted

Can you please post the file binary you built with -pie ?

[GUIDE] Building Pure Nexus

Introduction
Hello everyone, this is a guide to get you up and running with your own build of Pure Nexus for the Nexus 5X. In this thread, you will learn how to get your computer set up to build and the commands you will need to run. Please read the entire guide and the FAQ. Additionally, this is a developer's thread, there should be no off topic discussion.
Compilation Guide
This is available on my Github, where it may be a little more up to date.
0. Getting started
In this guide, I will go over how to build Pure Nexus on your Linux machine. This particular tutorial will focus on Ubuntu 16.04 as that is what I use (Mint 18 is also good) but this should work with any version of Linux; it does need to be 64-bit however. I will leave the installation of that up to you, Google is a wonderful resource. If you don't have a good computer but still want to build, check out this thread on XDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/chef-central/android/guide-how-to-build-rom-google-cloud-t3360430
1. Set up your environment
1. Automatically
Code:
sudo apt-get install git-core
git clone https://github.com/akhilnarang/scripts
cd scripts
ls
bash <script-name>
<script-name> should be one of the scripts in the folder for your particular architecture.
2. Manually
1. Install Java 8
Code:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk
sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jre
2. Install other build tools
Code:
sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential zip curl zlib1g-dev gcc-multilib g++-multilib libc6-dev-i386 lib32ncurses5-dev x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev lib32z-dev ccache libgl1-mesa-dev libxml2-utils xsltproc unzip
2. Configure repo and git
If you have any problems with the below commands, try running as root:
Code:
sudo -s
Git is an open source version control system which is incredibly robust for tracking changes across repositories. Repo is Google's tool for working with Git in the context of Android. More reading if you are interested: https://source.android.com/source/developing.html
Run these commands to get repo working (only do this if you did the manual set up method above:
Code:
mkdir ~/bin
PATH=~/bin:$PATH
curl https://storage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
Run these commands to get git working:
Code:
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
git config --global user.email "[email protected]"
3. Download the source
First, before downloading the source, create a folder for the source and move into it.
Code:
mkdir ~/<foldername> (eg. mkdir ~/PN or ~/PureNexus)
cd ~/<foldername>
Then, we need to grab the manifest and sync down the repositories. Here are the commands to do this for Pure Nexus for Nougat (make sure you are in the source folder you made above):
Code:
repo init -u https://github.com/PureNexusProject/manifest.git -b n
repo sync --force-sync
Here is the process generally for other ROMs:
When you go to build a ROM, you must download its source. All, if not most, ROMs will have their source code available on Github. To properly download the source, follow these steps:
Go to your ROM's Github (e.g. http://github.com/PureNexusProject)
Search for a manifest (usually called manifest or android_manifest).
Go into the repo and make sure you are in the right branch (located right under the Commits tab).
Go into the README and search for a repo init command. If one exists, copy and paste it into the terminal and hit enter.
If one does not exist, you can make one with this formula:
Code:
repo init -u <url_of_manifest_repo>.git -b <branch_you_want_to_build>
For example:
Code:
repo init -u http://github.com/PureNexusProject/manifest.git -b n
After the repo has been initialized, run this command to download the source:
Code:
repo sync --force-sync
This process can take a while depending on your internet connection.
4. Build it!
At this point, it'd be a good idea to set up ccache. ccache is a compiler cache, it stores previously compiled files in a directory and pulls from that instead of recompiling if nothing has changed. This speeds up compilation a LOT. If you want to use it, follow the below steps:
Open up your .bashrc file in your home directory using a text editor or nano and append this to the end of it:
Code:
export USE_CCACHE=1
Then type:
Code:
source ~/.bashrc
After that, run one of the below command (replacing the # with how many GBs of ccache you want, 50 is recommended)
Use this one if you used the manual method of set up in section 1:
Code:
prebuilts/misc/linux-x86/ccache/ccache -M #G
Use this one if you used the automatic method of set up in section 1:
Code:
ccache -M #G
After that, it's time to build!
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh
breakfast bullhead
mka bacon
After that, your computer will build the flashable zip file and if you see something that says make completed, you've done it!
Any time that you want to rebuild, type the following commands:
Code:
repo sync --force-sync
. build/envsetup.sh
breakfast bullhead
mka clobber
mka bacon
I also have a script to do this on my Github here
Frequently Asked Questions
1.1 Q: I got an error, what do I do??
1.1 A: Well to start, if it is anything with Ninja, I would go ahead and disable it. You can add this to your .bashrc file:
Code:
export USE_NINJA=false
Then type this
Code:
source ~/.bashrc
. build/envsetup.sh
breakfast bullhead
mka clobber
mka bacon
If it is saying you ran out of memory, follow this post.
If it isn't Ninja related, check out @AzraelsKiss's post here, where he has documented a few common issues. If none of those apply, post here with a detailed list of what you have done and we will do our best to help you.
1.2 Q: Can you guys share your personal builds?
1.2 A: No, personal builds are just that: personal. Beans releases whenever he feels that the release is ready for the masses and if a bunch of personal builds are floating around, that tarnishes the Pure Nexus name. We are more than happy to help get you up and running but we will not be sharing our builds. Thanks for understanding!

Reason being, because if we start compiling these and handing it out like it's no ones business, we're going to run Pure Nexus into the ground and people will start uploading them on AFH and it'll be one big mess. My guess is, this is just a courtesy by the original poster to those of us who can't wait.
My two cents.:laugh::highfive:

i'm on it!!!!! thank you very much!!! download is taking forever ugh

Building it right now! Thanks

I think this would work in Cygwin. I used to compile stuff for the PS3 way back. I'd have a lot of reading to do if I wanted to build this for my phone.

Which gapps to use with this?

Open Gapps micro are working fine.

You can try. Your build times will be much slower though.

I think this would work in Cygwin. I used to compile stuff for the PS3 way back. I'd have a lot of reading to do if I wanted to build this for my phone.

Out of curiosity, realistically how much disk space would be required to download everything and compile with a 50GB cache? I got everything downloaded and the compile ran but threw some warnings (most of which may have been benign). When the compile terminated with an error, I had about 40MB left on my Linux Mint 18 partition so I assume it ran out of space I started with about 70GB free space
I deleted everything and decided to try again if and when I have a larger partition to play with..... I am currently dual booting on a Windows machine and didn't think to allocate that much space to Mint.
