Hello. After reading, reading and more reading i picked one of the most newbe freindly guides on how to make a CWM recovery for a new device.
I my case im going to build CWM recovery for the Tom-Tec 7 excellent.
It hase Android ICS V4.0.3
This guide is alsow to compile cyanogenmod for unsupported device!
I am using Ubuntu 64 bit. (Wy go for less if i dont have to.) But i gues it will work for most linux versions if you got the required packages installend. Even Max OS can be used to build i gues. But thats a bit differant guide..
Step 1:
Install the required packages
Links with info.....
Google’s official guide: http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html
Step 2:
Install java SDK, ADB and?
link adb....
[GUIDE] Lazyman's installation guide to ADB on Ubuntu 10.10 - Now with Ubuntu 11.10: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11823740#post11823740

Step 3:
In you´re ¨home¨ dir make a folder called ICS. (You can give it any name you like.. But i have to start with something right..)
Use the terminal app to cd into ICS folder. (click ¨Dash home¨ icon. from the menu on the left. In the cursor field type perminal to find the app) Just in case you dont know how to cd into the ICS folder. Just type ¨cd ICS¨ in the opend terminal app and you there. (with out the ¨¨)
Step 4:
Now we got to download the Cyanogenmod source files with the terminal app. This can take a very long time. The CWM recovery source comes bundled with the CyanogenMod source.
Pick the version you want to make a recovery for.
I have ICS on my tablet sow im gone use the ICS repo.
Code:
CWM 5 - Gingerbread
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b gingerbread
CWM 5:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b ics
? repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b ics android-4.0.4_r2.1 werkt..
CWM 6 - Jellybean
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b jellybean
Sow i copy pastle this line in the terminal: ¨repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b ics¨ with out the ¨¨ hit enter.
If asked give a name and email adres. Confirm with Y if its right.
Now type ¨repo sync¨ (with out the ¨¨) in the terminal and hit enter.
Downloading the source will take a very long time.
Step 5:
Now we come to the actuall compiling part. Make sure you have synced the latest source files using the "repo sync" command. Personally i run the ¨repo sync¨ command often to get the newest changes (commits).
Now issue this command :
make -j4 otatools
ore: make otatools
of with log: make otatools 2>&1 | tee tom-tec-OtaTools.log
If it wont work you can try: make CC=gcc CXX=g++ -j4 otatools
If it wont works scroll down to the part about Fix compile problems.
This will run a short time. It will make the tools needed to build the recovery. If everything executed properly a new set of files have been created in ICS/out/host/darwin-x86/bin:
Step 6:
Now we are going to add a not officially supported device. This way we can build CyanogenMod.
Using terminal emulator on your device, issue the command
Code:
dump_image boot /sdcard/boot.img
This will dump the boot image to your sdcard. Transfer it to your home directory.
My Tablet did not have the dump_image file on it..
Sow there are some options open:
Option 1:
place the dump_image file in the bin folder of the tablet. You will need to change the read/write rights of the file ofcource.
I used the root explorer app to do this.
Option 2: Take the boot.img from last official rom.

Ore here: http://portal.tom-tec.eu/KB/a204/firmware-update-for-the-tom-tec-atf-3657-excellent-7.aspx
ore:
http://portal.tom-tec.eu/KB/a204/firmware-update-for-the-tom-tec-atf-3657-excellent-7.aspx
Option 3: Just dump the boot.img file from the tablet. And dump the
recovery.img to.
Dump boot.img this way: dd if=/dev/block/mtdblock0 of=/mnt/ext_sd/boot.img bs=4096
Dump recovery.img this way: dd if=/dev/block/mtdblock6 of=/mnt/ext_sd/recovery.img bs=4096
You can use ADB terminal from pc ore go download a terminal from Google play store on you´re android device.
To build Android from source for a new device, you need to set up a board config and its makefiles. This is generally a long and tedious process. Luckily, if you are only building recovery, it is a lot easier. From the root of your Android source directory (assuming you've run envsetup.sh), run the following (substituting names appropriately):
Code:
build/tools/device/mkvendor.sh device_manufacturer_name device_name /your/path/to/the/boot.img
For Tom-Tec 7 excellent, the command will go as follows :
Code:
build/tools/device/mkvendor.sh YG m805_892x ~/boot.img
and for the recovery: of: build/tools/device/mkvendor.sh YG m805_892x ~/recovery.img
Please note that m805_892x is the device name..... Only use "~/boot.img" if you have the boot image in your home directory. Or else please specify the correct path.
You will receive the confirmation "Done!" if everything worked. The mkvendor.sh script will also have created the following directory in your Android source tree:
manufacturer_name/device_name
YG/m805_892x
In case of the Tom-Tec 7 excellent you can find the output files here:
/home/youreUsernames/ICS/device/YG/m805_892x
Step 7 :
Now that you have the device config ready, proceed.
Type the following code in your terminal in the source directory.
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh
gives:
including device/ti/panda/vendorsetup.sh
including device/YG/m805_892x/vendorsetup.sh
including vendor/cm/vendorsetup.sh
including sdk/bash_completion/adb.bash
This will setup the build environment for you to work.
Now launch the command
Code:
lunch full_device_name-eng
For Tom-tec 7 excellent it is: lunch full_m805_892x-eng
But seems best to me to use: lunch full_m805_892x-userdebug
This step will be done in a short time.
This will set the build system up to build for your new device. Open up the directory in a file explorer or IDE. You should have the following files: AndroidBoard.mk, AndroidProducts.mk, BoardConfig.mk, device_.mk, kernel, system.prop, recovery.fstab, and vendorsetup.sh.
Now we can go and eddit the files in the directory: /home/..username../ICS/device/YG/m805_892x
The two files you are interested in are recovery.fstab and kernel. The kernel in that directory is the stock one that was extracted from the boot.img that was provided earlier. For the most part, recovery.fstab will work on most devices that have mtd, emmc, or otherwise named partitions. But if not, recovery.fstab will need to be tweaked to support mounts and their mount points. For example, if your /sdcard mount is /dev/block/mmcblk1p1, you would need the following lines in your BoardConfig.mk
/sdcard vfat /dev/block/mmcblk1p1
Once the recovery.fstab has been properly setup, you can proceed to the next step.
Step 8 :
Now we build the recovery.
Code:
make -j4 recoveryimage
Ore with a log file:
make -j4 recoveryimage 2>&1 | tee tom-tec-revovery.log
(Will be checking build tools if clean command is used.)
This command builds the recovery image
You can use the command
Code:
make -j4 recoveryzip
Ore with a log:
make -j4 recoveryzip 2>&1 | tee tom-tec-fashableZip.log
To make a fakeflash recovery i.e. a temporary recovery to test out on the actual device.
Your recovery can then be found at "your_source_directory/OUT/target/product/m805_892x/recovery.img" and the temporary fakeflash zip in the utilities folder at the same location.
If everything works out well, you will have a working recovery.
At the moment i havent been able to make a CWM recovery with all the options working. Sow a nice bit of user feedback will help making it i hope.
Once you have working builds, notify "koush", on Github and he can build official releases and add ROM Manager support!
IF YOU HAVE ALREADY COMPILED THE SOURCE AND YOU MAKE CHANGES TO THE BoardConfig.mk YOU WILL HAVE TO DO THIS FOR YOUR NEXT BUILD
$ cd ICS
$ make clobber
ore make clean
$ . build/envsetup.sh
$ lunch full_m805_892x-eng ore lunch full_m805_892x-userdebug
of lunch en nummer kiezen
$ make -j4 recoveryimage 2>&1 | tee tom-tec-recovery.log
$ make -j4 recoveryzip
$ make -j4 bootimage
$ make -j4 userdataimage
$ make -j4 systemimage
And for building the rom: make -j4 otapackage 2>&1 | tee tom-tec-build.log
Download files:
New 2014:
CWM recover V6.0.12 last: http://www.mediafire.com/view/w40bzdl1ujh60ay/recovery
info:Making a backup and restore works. The best part i think.
Some options dont work jet. Its to late to tell much about.
Everything works except for:
USB mount
Key test close to working.
choose backup format
I made the recovery flashable from stock recovery. Download it here.
cwm recovery V6.x beta flashable:
later again
Recovery FakeFlash update.zip (recoveryzip): http://www.mediafire.com/?r3uhcqol1t55ii5
You can install this from the stock recovery. It wont harm the system! It will give you the option to make a rom backup.
Its not a full cwm recovery but it is a start.
If you install a rom using Recovery FakeFlash update.zip there will be a log file made in: /cach/recovery/
Very usefull to check if you´re rom is not booting
For me with the Tom-tec. If i restore the userdata.img the device wont fully start. It keeps loading the android image.
Dump you recovery. Flashable file.:
http://www.mediafire.com/?jk929dw8vpw1w1f
If you want to go back to the stock recovery use this file:
flashable stock recovery v3e
http://www.mediafire.com/?q8fgeqtwt2iqau8
If you´re not able to build the otatools.

Some tips :
If you want to compile CWM 6, sync the jellybean branch using the command :
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b jellybean
repo sync
If you want to compile CWM 6 on a 32 bit system, you need to sync THIS source too. Instructions are given in the readme.
Run "make clobber" between builds if you change the BoardConfig.mk, or the change will not get picked up.
Credits :
Koush for this guide. Find 1 of his githubs to see the info he gives in the make files. Helps a lot.
Fix compile problems
Fix problems... This the learning part.. Fun but can be really anoying to.
First i got my self:
make otatools did not work.
-Try make -j4 out/host/linux-x86/bin/unpackbootimg
-put "unpackbootimg" in ~/android/system/out/host/linux-x86/bin then i copy it to ~/usr/bin and set chmod.
Im did see a download if it some place. Google.
-copy unpackbootimg to into /usr/bin If it is there, make it executable.
make executable: sudo chmod a+x /usr/bin/unpackbootimg
-Run make clubber from The ICS folder. Than restart pc might help to.
Problem: unpackbootimg not found. Is your android build environment set up and have the host tools been built?
build/tools/device/mkvendor.sh YG m805_892x ~/recovery.img
gives:
unpackbootimg not found. Is your android build environment set up and have the host tools been built?
fix: make -j4 out/host/linux-x86/bin/unpackbootimg
fix2: permission van de bestanden aanpassen.
fix3: copy unpackbootimg file into /usr/bin (change permissing)
(Look on google for: cp file to usr/bin)
how:
Copy unpackbootimg to you´re home dir.
sudo cp unpackbootimg /usr/bin
Give pasword.
chmod +x unpackbootimg ./unpackbootimg
Probleem . build/envsetup.sh with vendorsetup.sh not found (including device/YG/m805_892x/vendorsetup.sh
):
[email protected]:~/ICS$ . build/envsetup.sh
including device/ti/panda/vendorsetup.sh
including vendor/cm/vendorsetup.sh
including sdk/bash_completion/adb.bash
Make the file vendorsetup.sh in you´re device tree. Look at a nother device tree how it set up! Have a look in my github.
My device tree is in home dir at: / ICS/device/YG/m805_892x
Now run . build/envsetup.sh again it should be there now.
Still not there? Did you run the command from inside the right folder (project folder). I have to do cd ICS.
probleem:
build/core/product_config.mk:199: *** device/YG/m805_892x/full_m805_892x.mk: PRODUCT_NAME must be a valid C identifier, not "full_m805_892x-evm". Stop.
fix make files settings:
PRODUCT_BUILD_PROP_OVERRIDES += BUILD_UTC_DATE=0
#PRODUCT_NAME := full_m805_892x
PRODUCT_NAME := full_m805_892x-evm
PRODUCT_DEVICE := m805_892x
PRODUCT_BRAND := Android
PRODUCT_MODEL := A777
Change to this:
PRODUCT_NAME := full_m805_892x_evm
And yes you have to use _ insted of - i gues.
Make the change in: cm.mk, device_m805_892x.mk and full_m805_892x.mk
Problem building recovery:

#data-size,0x00010000 this and sow on i found in the Asus stock rom.
Nother problem that i did run into trying to make ext4 images:
make_ext4fs -s -l 0x40000000 -a data out/target/product/m805_892x/userdata.img out/target/product/m805_892x/data
Need size of filesystem
make: *** [out/target/product/m805_892x/userdata.img] Error 4
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs..
The sizes need to be in bytes it seems.
make_ext4fs does not support hex in the -l argument
DD dump you´re partitions and you see the amount of bytes.
I put this in my BoardConfig.mk like this:
BOARD_USERDATAIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 1073741824
Use this to finisch waiting jobs..:
make_ext4fs -s -l 1073741824 -a data out/target/product/m805_892x/userdata.img out/target/product/m805_892x/data
problem:

The error is somewhare found in this file:
device_m805_892x.mk I used the original file and start adding things again.
Problem:

For that use the terminal and cd to:
cd /vendor/cm
run:
./get-prebuilts
This will download the RomManager.apk and bit of other stuff.
Problem:

** Don't have a product spec for: 'full_m805_892x'
** Do you have the right repo manifest?
fix:
What you need to do is to edit your blob to match the PRODUCT_NAME to the file name. For example with mine I have full_m805_892x therefore in this file I need to have PRODUCT_NAME to match it. Whatever error it is looking for you just need to change the PRODUCT_NAME line to match what the error shows. I did have a look in the files: cm.mk, device_m805_892x.mk, full_m805_892x.mk and vendorsetup.sh

fix: I did have to change the libril.so settings in BoardConfig.mk I did disable the libril.so settings for now.
I alsow did have to remove the libril.so file in ojb/lib of the project out folder. Than the build will go on.

Edit make files..
Edit make files..
Edit:
vendorsetup.sh
This file you have to make you self first. Just make a new file in the device tree folder (Lunix OS). Not in Windows OS! Dont use Windows to edit files. Ore use the notpad+ edition if you really have to. You have to donwload it and install it.
I have this in it:
add_lunch_combo device_m805_892x-eng
add_lunch_combo full_m805_892x-eng
add_lunch_combo full_m805_892x-user
add_lunch_combo full_m805_892x-userdebug
add_lunch_combo full_m805_892x_evm-userdebug
The option: add_lunch_combo full_m805_892x_evm-userdebug will be used. Its set in the make files.
full_m805_892x.mk:
Make a nother file full_m805_892x.mk
Look in my device tree to see how its set up.
Most inportant part for now is:
PRODUCT_BUILD_PROP_OVERRIDES += BUILD_UTC_DATE=0
PRODUCT_NAME := PRODUCT_NAME := full_m805_892x_evm
PRODUCT_DEVICE := m805_892x
PRODUCT_BRAND := Android
PRODUCT_MODEL := A777
Make sure that PRODUCT_NAME := PRODUCT_NAME := full_m805_892x_evm uses the name ash used in vendorsetup.sh (and cm.mk and device_m805_892x.mk )
Yes it hase to be PRODUCT_NAME := full_m805_892x_evm
Not full_m805_892x-evm ore m805_892x-evm-userdebug its seems.
Android.mk:
Make this file in you´re device tree.
Put this in the file and save (No enter after it!):
LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir)
AndroidProducts.mk
Make this file in you´re device tree. Put this in the file and save:
PRODUCT_MAKEFILES := \
$(LOCAL_DIR)/full_m805_892x.mk
There is no \ behind full_m805_892x.mk. There is no \ after the last product! This file hase 1 product in it as you can see. If there are more products than ad \ after every product. But no \ on the last product listed.
BoardConfig.mk
Lost of things are set in this file.
When i made my device tree i got this line in it. (And others ofcourse)
BOARD_KERNEL_CMDLINE := console=null
I did change it to this:
BOARD_KERNEL_CMDLINE := console=vmalloc=256M
I found the cmdline when i did a search in the device kernel config..
I did look for: cmdline
The is a nother way to get the BOARD_KERNEL_CMDLINE :=
Open a terminal on you´re tablet and run: cat /proc/cmdline
ore cat /proc/cmdline > /ext_sd/cmdline.txt and it will put a text file on you´re sdcard.
I did get: cat /proc/cmdline > /ext_sd/cmdline.txt geeft : vmallc=256M logo_addr_size=0x85600000
I did left out het last part. I dont need a logo.. I need a cm bootanimation.

Flash recovery image to tablet.
Flash recovery image to tablet.....
I used a terminal app on the tablet:
First run su
$ need to change to # (Make sure you´re tablet hase root and adb hase root permission.)
This command if you have put the recovery.img on external sd: dd if=/mnt/ext_sd/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mtdblock6
Ore this of you got the recovery.img on internal sd : dd if=/mnt/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mtdblock6
ore use flash_image:
In terminal on the tablet
$ su
# cd /mnt/ext_sd
chmod 777 flash_image
(Yes you have to place the flash_image file on the sdcard)
flash_image recovery /mnt/ext_sd/recovery.img)
Using fastboot:
~$ adb reboot-bootloader
~$ fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
I did install a broken recovery on my tablet. And the current rom did not have root.. Using fastboot worked out great. The screem did stay back wile in fastboot mode.
Notes:
Needs fastboot/fastboot.exe in adb platform folder.
Needs you´re recovery.img file to in adb platform folder.
Build rom.

Just for me again. Just in case
Partial success on Ferguson S3 clone of this board
Hello,
using your tutorial I was able to successfully compile the fakeflash in-memory version (recoveryzip) from current ICS tree (v6.0.1.2) - View attachment rec-fakeflash-FergS3-v2.zip for Ferguson S3 device based on the same chipset. The touch variant on ICS tree did not build.
However, I have to note that the boot image does not work (the real fstab is generated incorrectly during bootup so it can't mount anything). But since the fakeflash ZIP image works, it is simple to boot into it without replacing the original recovery.
A few things had to be changed in ICS/device/YG/m805_892x/ directory:
There is no "central button", so the BoardConfig.mk must contain following line (you can just uncomment it):
Code:
BOARD_HAS_NO_SELECT_BUTTON := true
To backup correctly .android_secure and be able to use the external SD card for backups at the same time, the recovery.fstab lines for SD and nand were changed to:
Code:
/external_sd vfat /dev/block/mmcblk0p1 /dev/block/mmcblk0
/sdcard vfat /dev/block/ndda1 /dev/block/ndda
UPDATE: if you plan to use sd-ext partition as well (e.g. ext3 partition for Link2SD), you will also need following line (not included in the attatched zip image):
Code:
/sd-ext auto /dev/block/mmcblk0p2
Or maybe we could extend it just in case (if the internal SD-card is usable for this):
Code:
/sd-ext auto /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /dev/block/ndda2
I have also added following line to BoardConfig.mk based on the (non-working) on-line builder, but it works even without it, so it might not be necessary
Code:
TARGET_ARCH_VARIANT := armv7-a
I´m happy my thread did help you. I´ll well keep adding new stuff to tis thread over time Im first trying to make a working rom and recovey for my self at the moment.
I see you try builing the for JB. Make files for JB work a bit differnt than from ICS it seems to me after a short try. I havent tryed a touch version my self jet. But if you know a nice github that is for making a touch version let me know.
To fix you´re boot.img i gues you should try and unpack the original and the 1 you build. Compaire them. There is a nice guide with tools + instruction here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23298690#post23298690
I got my self a working boot.img that way. Hope it will be a bit of help to you. Have a look how others use the make files to putt the right stuff in the boot.img and recovery.img
I to did have to use: BOARD_HAS_NO_SELECT_BUTTON := true
to get the button working. I wanted to add that in my guide when i get my rom working.
I would just keep this part in you´re BoardConfig if it works: TARGET_ARCH_VARIANT := armv7-a
maybe even have to make it like this? armv7-a-neon
if you have the neon feature. I think sow.
Try the android info app.
Thx for you´re nice post. If you make a nice github i would like to check it out

Can I use kernel built from kernel source of Android 5 to build rom for Android 7?
My device repositories are not available on github, But I got device tree and vendor blobs by making changes in similar device repo. That reference device's kernel's lineageos_defconfig is situated in htc msm8974 kernel repo. So how can I get lineageos_defconfig for my device, and which other my device related kernel files(.dtsi or any other) I have to push in htc msm8974 repo and get those files to make things ready for build?
Please help......

Thank you for your reply, I overlooked some requirements for building from source and I had a 32-bit Ubuntu system which gave me the error
Code:
/bin/bash: prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/arm/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-gcc: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error
/bin/bash: prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/arm/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8/bin/arm-linux-androideabi-gcc: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error
Now switching to 64-bit Ubuntu.
This guide is focused on xperia e3 but for other devices process will be simler too.
This guide is not in good shape now i will keep improving it and making it easier and better.
if xperia e3 don,t have too many developers then become one.
Requirements
linux os. -recommended ubuntu 14.04 LTS
(you can install ubuntu on virtualbox or dual boot ubuntu with windows)
cross compiler tool chain -recomended Linaro GCC 4.9.3 optimized for arm-cortex_a7
kernel source code. download it from sony or you can compile my nitrogen kernel only if you have D2212/02 recomended.
unlocked bootloader
tools for building boot.img Download HERE
Sony Kernel
D2202/12 DOWNLOAD
D2203/06/43 DOWNLOAD
Nitrogen Kernel
D2202/12/03/06/43 DOWNLOAD
config for lte varriants is not uploaded but u may find it in your device /proc/config.gz
extarct config from config.gz and rename it to Nitrogen_lte_defconfig and put it in
<kernel source folder>/arch/arm/config/<here>
Setting up Environment in Ubuntu.
boot up ubuntu and open Home directory.
create two new folder.
one with name "toolchain"
one with name "build"
now extract your toolchain to toolchain folder it must contain these folders
Code:
arm-cortex_a7-linux-gnueabihf
bin
include
lib
libexec
share
(depends on toolchain you have)
Extracting Nitrogen source code
if you downloaded zip then extract that zip home dir.
then rename flamingo-kernel folder to kernel
else you can use these commands
Code:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install git
then
Code:
git clone https://github.com/vinay94185vinay/Flamingo-kernel.git
after that rename flamingo kernel to kernel.
How to extract sony source code
open terminal type
Code:
tar -xjvf
then drag n drop source code file
then hit enter. (it will extract files in home firectory)
open your firmware number folder. eg: 18.5.C.0.19
delete extarnal folder then move/copy "kernel" folder to home dir.
and then extract build tools to build folder.
Compiling.
open an terminal (CTRL+ALT+T) and type
Code:
cd Kernel
(this will change directory to kernel folder.)
then type
Code:
export CROSS_COMPILE=[COLOR="Green"]~/toolchain/bin/[/COLOR][COLOR="Red"]arm-cortex_a7-linux-gnueabihf-[/COLOR]
(red line depend on tool chain and green line on it,s location)
how to find correct red line for toolchain.
open toolchain folder
then bin
in my case it contains files like
arm-cortex_a7-linux-gnueabihf-addr2line
arm-cortex_a7-linux-gnueabihf-ar
arm-cortex_a7-linux-gnueabihf-as
see all files contains that red line.
now you must understood how to know that line.
for sony kernel source code type
For D2202 and D2212
Code:
make [COLOR="Red"]ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CROSS_COMPILE[/COLOR] [COLOR="Green"]arima_8226ds_dp_defconfig[/COLOR]
For D2203 and D2206 and D2243
Code:
make [COLOR="Red"]ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CROSS_COMPILE[/COLOR] [COLOR="Green"]arima_8926ss_dp_defconfig[/COLOR]
"RED" line make sure that you compile kernel for arm based cpu that is in your android device
if you remove this line you will end up making a kernel for your pc.
"GREEN" is to load an preset default configuration for compiling kernel
it contains what thing,s has to be compiled in this kernel.
for nitrogen kernel source code type
D2202 and D2212
Code:
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CROSS_COMPILE Nitrogen_defconfig
D2203 and D2206 and D2243
Code:
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CROSS_COMPILE Nitrogen_lte_defconfig
Now type for dualcore cpu
Code:
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CROSS_COMPILE [COLOR="red"]-j3[/COLOR]
"red" -j3 tell,s compiler to make 3 job,s which is good for intel dual core cpu.
if you have dual core amd cpu it should be better for you to have 2 job,s mean -j2
and -j4 for quard core.
for quard core cpu
Code:
make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CROSS_COMPILE -j5
(do it like this cores + 1)
now wait for untill your kernel get compiled.
it may take long time. depend on how fast and how many cores your cpu have.
if you don,t get any error then
you have compiled your kernel :good:.
building boot.img
copy zimage from kernel/arch/arm/boot folder.
to build/msm8226_flamingo/<zimage>
now in msm8226_flamingo folder.
open new_stock_files/<according to your device>/
copy ramdisk. and dt.img to msm8226_flamingo folder.
now open terminal (CTRL+ALT+T) and type
Code:
cd build/msm8226_flamingo/
then
Code:
./makeit.sh
(don,t forget dot.)
now you can see boot.img in build/msm8226_flamingo folder.
now you can flash boot.img with fastboot or flashtool.
feel free to ask if you don,t understand or have error in any step.

if you get error with line
Code:
[-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
like this one
Code:
CC drivers/video/msm/mdss/mdss_dsi_host.o
CC drivers/video/msm/mdss/mdss_dsi_cmd.o
CC drivers/video/msm/mdss/mdss_dsi_panel.o
drivers/video/msm/mdss/mdss_dsi_panel.c: In function ‘mdss_dsi_panel_reset’:

rc = mdss_dsi_request_gpios(ctrl_pdata);
^
cc1: some warnings being treated as errors
make[4]: *** [drivers/video/msm/mdss/mdss_dsi_panel.o] Error 1
make[3]: *** [drivers/video/msm/mdss] Error 2
make[2]: *** [drivers/video/msm] Error 2
make[1]: *** [drivers/video] Error 2
make: *** [drivers] Error 2
then open makefile in kernel folder and find line
Code:
CFLAGS_KERNEL =
and make it like this
Code:
CFLAGS_KERNEL = -w
then save and exit you will not see that error again.
I will try it

export command was incorrect.
i fixed it and added details of it.
hi,
guy,s some info here.
if you compile nitrogen kernel from source code it will give you some extra features that i added in source code after release of Nitrogen 4.1.
nitrogen kernel source code have
- prima wifi drivers
- headset in high performance mode
- zzmove governor
- 30% faster input output
- enhance power efecency with series of NVIDIA patches
- some tweaks for ASoc
- Enabled TCP Congestions like high speed,westwood etc.
if you want these features then compile kernel from source.
i will keep adding features to source code
only D2202 and D2212 is supported.
Don,t forget the poll at top of thread.
any on making any kernel.
Hello
Thank you ver much, Vinay
Today i built my first Android kernel for D2203. Before i had your kernel LTE.7z from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-e3/general/simplified-guide-to-root-sony-xperia-e3-t3012248 It was work perfectly. On my new kernel i have no CWM recovery. How to restore recovery?
Thanks

for a recovery you need a ramdisk with recovery. Tell me which recovery you want i can give you that ramdisk.

all are default configrations.
you should put config in /arch/arm/config/<here>
and rename it to something like my_defconfig
then use make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$ROSS_COMPILE my_defconfig
because you may have to use make clean&&make mrproper many times which wiill delete .config keeping it in arch/arm/config
will kepp it safe.
and
arima_8226ds_dp_defconfig
is config for xperia e3.
arima (some sort of secret name for xperia e3)
8226 (name of cpu)
ds (d=>dual s=> sim)
dp (i don,t know)
defconfig (default config)

guide updated.
added link to a guide about adding features to your kernel
if you wan,t to learn anything more just ask me..
vinay pls hlp me , nothing happens after adding this ( export CROSS_COMPILE=~/toolchain/bin/arm-cortex_a7-linux-gnueabihf-) line in terminal , do i need to install some xtra apps in ubuntu? because i have install ubuntu for the 1st time through virtualbox, and pls make a video for this guide.

and ~/kernel is path to folder which contains kernel source code.
i downloaded the zip, and after this "chmod -R 777 ~/kernel" command im still getting same error,
thanks vinay for help, but now im leaving this kernel compiling, thanks.
I have this problem and i cant fix it. I try some tree sources of github but the problem its the same.
The guide i follow is this:
