Hello everyone,
I hope to find some help from the Gurus out there.
I have a decent amount of knowledge so i decided to compile a ROM from my unsupported device.
What is not clear to me is how do i compile a ROM with different android_device, android_vendor and android_kernel sources
I'm currently following this guide http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro so it it enough to copy the content of my the directories as per the point "Set up three new directories" ??
I would love to have a mentor to help me out, anyone?
Regards,

Hello all,
I am quite new so please pardon my ignorance.
I am new to Android and trying to develop some applications with some success.
What I want to know is, if I want to extend/change a system application, for example, Phone.apk file) how can I do so without downloading the whole ROM source from GIT repositories. Also I will like to know is there a way to debug the same without building the whole source every time?
All the questions I searched were related to Java or general Android application development. I could not find anything related to extending/changing system applications. Maybe I didn't searched well enough. If yes, please point me to the right thread.
Any help will be hugely appreciated.
Regards,
Yogesh.
Hi,
I'm following the Nexus S Android Development for 6 month now and Rom and Kernel flashing is a a real addiction for me (I flash everyday).
And, since the beginning i want to create my own Rom.
At first, I want to build one from another one (Cyanogen or another).
So, If someone can give me tutos, tools, tips and advices, I'll be very grateful.
Thanks to everybody, waiting for your help.

Hey you know i find myself sharing this exact interest as you. Let's collaborate and learn this Create A ROM Project
Notice to see the motivation to create a new ROM.
How good are your Linux skills? If you want to do it all properly I suggest you try and build your own AOSP ROM first (from the Adroid Open Source Project).
This is the place where Google publishes the Android source code files. Actually the site is fantatic and guides you through the entire process, but it does require you to understand the basics of the maketools in Linux.
Once you've been able to compile the source, you'll actually have a perfect stock ROM version of Android. Then, you can start doing advanced things to it. Add a different Kernel, add apps, install tweak scripts etc etc etc, the options are endless.

Good luck and have fun, because it is

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.
Hello XDA members!
First of all, i have no ****ing clue about developing or anything else what have to do with android ^^
I am just a normal guy flashing Roms around (like every day ^^)
In the future i wanna compile Euphoria's Rom from Mahdi with the Uber toolchain + Render's Kernel for the OnePlus One!
How can i do that?, can somebody help me?, i wanna really do that and i am ready to learn new things
What do i need, wheree should i start, is it difficult, CRASHCOURSE please
Everyone who try's to help me...thank you very much infront
There are several guides on XDA that explain how to build from source, and that are aimed at beginners. Just search "How to build ROMs from source XDA" in Google and you'll get several results. You need a Linux PC though, with plenty (100gb) of space available.

100GB of space available!! Oh my...
I am trying the same thing. I found some useful resources. Maybe it could help you too.

Hello all, I have spent the last month trying to find a way to put the LG E980 into monitor mode. As far as I can can tell It's never been done, and no android versions above Lollipop, wich is a shame because its a beautiful device. I tried compiling the cm source code following this tutorial.
https://null-byte.wonderhowto.com/h...-android-device-with-wireless-adapter-0162943
Thank you very much to the Author.
I got it to compile with a few slight modifications but when I tried to load the resulting zip got freeze at startup.
I think the key may lie here
make ARCH=arm menuconfig
Can anyone with the knowledge to preform this feat Please compile this, or please recommend a good kernel mod tutorial so I can have a go at it.
Thanx to you all.
EDIT:ADDED: Btw its bcm4334 chipset
