I successfully compiled my first kernel and tried to add schedulers and governors.
I just want to make a more custom one like adding or modifying hotplug drivers. I tried looking on others' source on their git but I still can't understand and don't know where to look exactly.
I'm a dev and have a background in programming (obviously), kernel stuffs is just new to me so I need more articles or guide about it. Can someone please point me in the right direction? Seems like all tutorials I can see about compiling kernel from source is similar. No more customization. *sigh*

First of all, i hope the mods and admins forgive me that i open this thread in the development section, it would better fit to general, but i noticed that the developers aren't really present at the general section, if i'm wrong please move it.
This thread is build to become an collection of our developers knowledge that helps newcomers to androiddevelopment to start with it. I know out there are some guides already and in every thread there's a little bit of it, but i would really like to collect as much as possible at one place, if it's not your opinion delete it.
It's not ment to become an step by step guide (but if anyone will write one i'm sure not upset ), it should be an collection of links, and posts of special parts of development, cause i think most developers aren't the overall specialists, but kings in their section^^ and the readers of these informations can compile what they want from it.
So pls dear android developers share your knowledge with us
There are some links i found:

Wrong place for the question maybe ?
Google search + XDA search are your best tools.

Shout out to the gurus here.
There are some very helpful guides on ROMS for noobs (or semi-noobs like me).
However, I can't find a compiled list or helpful tutorial on KERNELS.
If a thread exists, can someone point me there?
If a thread doesn't exist, does some brave soul want to step forward and help the masses?

Hi guys,
So I've always loved flashing ROMs on my phones and tinkering, but I've never really understood how to do it all. I figured I should learn and try to give back to the community, considering the amount of time I spend on here.
I've followed the steps on source.android.com for initializing my build environment. I'm done syncing with the repo, but I can't find a thorough guide on what to do next. I can't use the breakfast command because my phone is not an official device. In the "Building for devices" section, it states that I need to obtain proprietary drivers for my device, but I'm not sure any manufacturers will give away their proprietary drivers
I'm looking to do all this for my Moto X 2013. So my question is, how does CyanogenMod have (some) proprietary drivers for my phone, and would it be possible for me to pull from CM's repo for those drivers? Is there a better forum for me to ask these questions?
If anyone has an idea of where I should look next to do some more research, I'd really appreciate the help!
Hi,
This section has many guides and tutorials. Please do your research and try your hand at it. After you read read read, if you still need help, ask in the thread of the guide you use, or create your own thread and ask for help...

Good luck!
Hi,
first post on this forum -> hope this is the right section, sorry if it isn't.
So I'm here because I have a problem regarding the building process of AOSP for the sony XA2
I'm following those steps : developer.sony.com/develop/open-devices/guides/aosp-build-instructions/build-aosp-nougat-8-1-oreo-4-4
(adding https for opening)
The problem appears on step 4, part 4 : I do not have the repo_update.sh
So first question very simple, does anyone has it ? what am I missing.
Although I'm not especially new to development, I found it on the repo (don't know why it does not come still -> I suppose it's not in the manifest, yet why is it suppose to be in the tutorial ?)
The next question are regarding my newbie state in android development / flashing / OS
Cause next I would need to flash the boot.img vendor etc . . . I did not find nowhere the explanation of where to find those and I'm kind of frustrated of finding absolutely nothing EXPLICIT on the matter.
So could someone point me to a newbie tutorial / explanation please ? or directly explain it to me if it's not too long.
For the record, I understood what those images are, I just don't know where to find them.
ok It's more a general confusion due to the fact that I'm new to Android than anything else still, I need answers
Thank you for your responses in advance.

I don't have this device and I've never personally built a ROM before but, you should be able to obtain some member guidance within one of the following threads.

I DO NOT provide support via PM unless asked/requested by myself. PLEASE keep it in the threads where everyone can share.
Ok truth is, I think something is wrong with my system, I have a linux 17 maybe it's not the right one to do this, I tried with a 'normal' 16.04, I went further, have other problems, but I'm finding solutions on the forums.
Precisely in the links you gave me so thanks for answering the questions that I did not have time to ask ^^
Thank you for your help, have a nice day.
