[Q] Having trouble building CM7 from source using OS X

So I've been trying to build CM7 from source following this guide. I follow it exactly (apart from replacing "Vision" with "Glacier" and "-froyo" with "-gingerbread") and it gives me an error when I enter in the command "make -j`sysctl -an hw.logicalcpu` bacon"
"make: *** No rule to make target `vendor/htc/glacier/proprietary/MS-HTCVISION-KNT20-02.apk', needed by `out/target/product/glacier/system/app/MS-HTCVISION-KNT20-02.apk'. Stop.
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs...."
And countless other ones during the process.
Any idea why this is happening? I'm on OS X if it helps.

I think I've waiting long enough to warrant a bump.
Anyone?

My first thought for what's wrong is that you have the latest version of gmake(3.82) which has a bug that prevents android from building. If you haven't already done so, downgrade to gmake 3.81 and see if that solves your problem. You can do that following the step-by-step from the AOSP build guide or the instructions in this post.

Yes, I have downgraded gmake.

Ok, I think I figured out why you're getting the error which sounds like it gets thrown when the proprietary files are not pulled from your phone through adb when you run extract-files.sh as they should. From here:
make: *** No rule to make target `.../[something]', needed by `.../[something]'. Stop.
You need to copy the proprietary files off your phone. Make sure you have ADB set up and plug your device to your computer via USB. Then run:
Code:
cd /Volumes/CyanogenModWorkspace/android/system/device/htc/glacier/
./extract-files.sh

Hopefully that will get you up and running.

CROSS COMPILE path not found ?!

I've set up a VM build environment using Ubuntu with the aim of building kernel modules for my Samsung S3. Particularly interested in the asix
ethernet module so I can use this USB Ethernet adapter. Kevinf28 has very kindly assisted to provide initial builds of the module and prove that
it works. ( see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2131825) However, it needs to be rebuilt when a new ROM is released, and I
therefore want to create my own build environment. I have everything setup using git, have cloned the tool chains etc from git and have the kernel source ready to go from samsung. I can create the config file for the make, but then the build fails with the following. This seems very odd as the file its saying it cant find is clearly there! Any ideas ? I'm new to building kernels in linux. The output below was an attempt to build a CM10 version, but the same error occurs when building a samsung one.

Why your home_dir is root? That's odd...

After "pwd" you will get a full path of the directory where you in
Use that path for

Yes he is logged in as root. That's why his home directory is /root.

I know, I was getting him to think of that though. Sorry missed the post answering his question, but he still hasn't responded. @op Why are you logged in as root? You can build as a standard user.

I actually have the exact same problem. I can't build as root or as a standard user. No matter what I do, it won't compile ( running a VM just like the OP).
The virtual machine environment causing the problem?

Well what is the error? I've built on multiple VMs without a problem.

I don't think so, I've built a kernel several times on a virtual machine (virtualbox)

Well the fix for the OP is to use the toolchains fixed path instead of the relative path. I was curious as to what the other gentleman's error was.

I still cant get this to run - even following the instructions above.
I am using "sudo -i"
I could try as a user and shift everything across from the root home, but not sure that this will make a difference.... ?

Can you answer my question about why you were running as root in the first place? It is not needed so I want to know what circumstances lead up to this. Also now why is it failing? Same error? If so you got the path to the toolchain wrong.

No real reason to run as root - just that the instructions that I was following had it as root.
As far as the path being wrong - have a look back through my code snippets - I'm sure it isnt unless you can spot something I cant.....

Yes - the vm is 64bit. Could that be why? Does the kernel only compile on 32bit?

Nope it will build, but do you have ia32-libs install? Any other toolchains on the machine?

I've tried to install ia32-libs but I get lots of dependancy errors that Ive not been able to fix. As its a VM and easy to rebuild, I'm downloading the 32bit version and will see if I have any better results.
I've swapped my S3 for a Note2 - so will have a go at building the modules for that once I have the VM up again.

Looks like I may havce sorted this - i added in the CROSS_COMPILE= statement statement to the make command - like in (4) here: http://xda-university.com/as-a-developer/getting-started-building-a-kernel-from-source
Seems to be building ok now - but will see if it completes ok.
I reinstalled the VM with everything in a user home area rather than using /root/ - but the user is admin anyway so I dont suppose this will have made a difference.

[Completed] Help compiling SGH Hercules kernel for porting kali nethunter

Hi everyone!
I own the Samsung Galaxy S2 T989 A.K.A. Hercules
running cm 12.1 unofficial Sultan Hercules based on android 5.1.1 (Lollipop)
which has sultan-kernel-celox.
I am actually trying to port kali nethunter, a set of tools for pentesting (Awesome)
Running Kali linux 2.0 32 bits in my notebook. I have installed all the dependencies described in:
https://github.com/offensive-security/kali-nethunter/wiki/Porting-Nethunter
I am using the next rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2-tmobile/development/rom-aosp-lollipop-preview-t2931716
I also read the Develop Now guide to understand a bit better.
So the problem is when I run the " make" command in the sultan-kernel-celox kernel source directory and using " make Sultan_hercules_defconfig" which is inside /arch/arm/configs .
the error I am getting is:
CHK include/linux/version.h
CHK include/generated/utsrelease.h
make[1]: 'include/generated/mach-types.h' is up to date.
/bin/sh: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
/root/arm-stuff/kali-nethunter/sultan-herc/./Kbuild:35: recipe for target 'kernel/bounds.s' failed
make[1]: *** [kernel/bounds.s] Error 2
Makefile:989: recipe for target 'prepare0' failed
make: *** [prepare0] Error 2
So with my very limited knowledge about development and scripting check the Kbuild file at line 35 but I can't understand, I have also "googled" about the error I am getting but without luck, I also have tried with other sources kernel I have found but it seems to be the same message.
So please help me to figure what am I doing wrong or which kernel source should I use. I hope someone with so much more experience than me would help me with this issue to finally getting the nethunter tools.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
We tried the official kernel and built it. After flashing the kernel, phone boot and it asked for a password. We gave password "1234" and it reboots and went in recovery.
Its always rebooting in recovery. We flashed the original boot image. Behavior did not change.
Is there any other recovery image we can use and flash the original boot image and bring the phone to working condition?
Thank You!
