Simple HOWTO building some linux apps and libraries from scratch on android

This howto is only draft! Sometimes i went upgrade this, or make page on my site and post link on it. Also we have a project for automated building, like buildroot and opkg repository for android.
All needed configs in attached file. If you have error on unpack - just rename my.zip in my.tar.bz2 and try to unpack. Please correct me, if needed.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All work will be in home directory (/home/xvilka)
create dir build
mkdir build
1. Download the kernel (for android on your version for device) and unpack
make headers_install ARCH=arm INSTALL_HDR_PATH=~/build/kern_h/
For some optimisations you need know, which proccessor (SoC) in your android-system(gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.4.3/gcc/ARM-Options.html#ARM-Options)
Im have Motorola Milestone - SoC = TI OMAP3430 - ARM Cortex a8 (arch - armv7a)
(en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARM_architecture)
So, if you have OMAP3430-processor - use the config files with -omap3430 suffix
If you have Quallcomm MSM7200A (HTC Hero) - use the config files with -msm7200a suffix
First, we need to define _XXFLAGS, which contain some optimisation options for your compiler:
export _XXCFLAGS=" -mcpu=cortex-a8 -march=armv7-a -mtune=cortex-a8 -mfpu=vfpv3 -O3 -Os" (if you have Motorola Milestone/Droid or other device with TI OMAP3430)
export _XXCFLAGS=" -march=armv6j -mtune=arm1136jf-s -O3 -Os" (if you have HTC Hero or other device with Quallcomm MSM 7200A)
............................................................................................
If you don't know which chip you have in phone use _XXCFLAGS=" -O3 -Os"
2. Download crosstool-ng (ymorin.is-a-geek.org/dokuwiki/projects/crosstool),
unpack, build (you must have make,install,bash,cut,sed,grep,gcc,awk,bison,flex,automake,libtool,stat,
wget,cvs,patch,tar,gzip,bzip2,lzma,readlink,ncurses)
.configure
make
make install
3. Create directory toolchain-android, and copy config to this
XVilka-crosstool-<suffix>.config in .config
XVilka-uClibc-<suffix>.config in uClibc-0.9.30.2.config (or later version, if available)
and then run:
ct-ng menuconfig
you may change some options, if needed!
(Also use options from XXCFLAGS:
Target options -> Target optimizations ->
Architecture-level equal -march, use armv7-a
Emit assembly for CPU equal -mcpu, use cortex-a8
Tune for cpu equal -mtune, use cortex-a8
Use specific FPU equal -mfpu, use vfpv3
Floating point use hardware, because it built-in TI OMAP3430
Target CFLAGS - use -O3 -Os
) - for the Motorola Milestone/Droid
(Also use options from _XXCFLAGS:
Target options -> Target optimizations ->
Architecture-level equal -march, use armv6j
Emit assembly for CPU equal -mcpu, use nothing
Tune for cpu equal -mtune, use arm1136jf-s
Floating point use software
Target CFLAGS - use -O3 -Os
) - for the HTC Hero
Save in .config
In file uClibs-0.9.30.2.config
edit this strings:
{
UCLIBC_HAS_FLOATS=y
UCLIBC_HAS_FPU=y
# UCLIBC_HAS_SOFT_FLOAT=y
UCLIBC_EXTRA_CFLAGS=" -march=armv7-a -mcpu=cortex-a8 -mtune=cortex-a8 -mfpu=vfpv3 -O3 -Os"
} - for the Motorola Milestone/Droid
{
UCLIBC_HAS_FLOATS=y
#UCLIBC_HAS_FPU=y
UCLIBC_HAS_SOFT_FLOAT=y
UCLIBC_EXTRA_CFLAGS=" -march=armv6j -mtune=arm1136jf-s -O3 -Os"
} - for the HTC Hero
and then run
ct-ng build
4. Ok, done. We have installed cross - toolchain in directory build/x-tools.
And all programs in it with names arm-android-linux-uclibsgnueabi-*
For easy using add this directory in PATH:
PATH=~/build/x-tools/arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi/bin:$PATH
so we can run cross-gcc by the command:
arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-gcc
Root directory of target system is:
~/build/x-tools/arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi/arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi/sys-root
But for the safe - make new root dir and copy files too.
Copy files in ~/build/cross/sys-root
chmod +w sys-root
chmod +w sys-root/usr
5. Building busybox (only static build, but if we have static busybox in any problems with system problems with libs
we can easy use busybox as repair-mode tool)
copy file XVilka-busybox-<suffix>.config in .config
make menuconfig
make ARCH=arm CC="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-gcc" CROSS_COMPILE="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-" \
CFLAGS=" -static $_XXFLAGS"
make install CONFIG_PREFIX=~/build/cross/sys-root
Copy ~/build/cross/sys-root/bin/busybox in /system/bin on device
chown root /system/bin/busybox
chmod 755 /system/bin/busybox
ln -s /system/bin/busybox /system/bin/ash
Or in other directory and you can install all programs included in busybox by the command:
busybox --install
7. Building simple but powerful text editor jupp (mirbsd.org/jupp.htm)
chmod +x configure
./configure --prefix=/system/local --disable-curses --disable-termcap --disable-termidx --host=arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi ARCH=arm \
CC="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-gcc" CROSS_COMPILE="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-" sysconfdir=/system/usr/local/etc sysconfjoesubdir=/joe \
CFLAGS=" -static $_XXFLAGS"
make
arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-strip joe
On device:
copy joe in /system/bin
copy joerc in /system/usr/local/etc/joe
copy jupprc in /system/usr/local/etc/joe
copy jmacsrc in /system/usr/local/etc/joe
copy sintax files in /system/usr/local/etc/joe/syntax
chmod 755 /system/bin/joe
ln -s /system/bin/joe /system/bin/jupp
ln -s /system/bin/joe /system/bin/jmacs
chmod 644 /system/usr/local/etc/joe/joerc
chmod 644 /system/usr/local/etc/joe/jupprc
chmod 644 /system/usr/local/etc/joe/jmacsrc
before running joe we must define TERM
export TERM=ansi
8. How to use dinamic linking and shared libraries
(if we installed programs in local directory in sys-root,
so copy lib from local)
cd ~/build/cross/sys-root
tar -jcf lib.tar.bz2 lib/
And on device:
cd /system/usr/local
busybox tar -xcf /sdcard/lib.tar.bz2
For our programs, wich uses this non-standart library path we may create this script and run your programs by it:
#!/bin/sh
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
exec /usr/bin/local/some_program $*
9. Building libFLAC in shared library, which we can use easy and copy to /system/lib,
which have nothing in NEEDED - just kernel and you, also no any libc (bionic, or uClibc) not used.
Download latest version of libFLAC from the official site, unpack and cd to dir:
./autogen.sh --host=arm --target=arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi CC="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-gcc" \
CXX="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-g++" STRIP="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-strip" \
AR="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-ar" AS="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-as" LD="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-ld" \
RANLIB="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-ranlib" OBJDUMP="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-objdump" \
NM="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-nm" CROSS_COMPILE="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-" \
CFLAGS=" -nodefaultlibs -nostdlib -fPIC $_XXFLAGS" \
CXXFLAGS=" -nodefaultlibs -nostdlib -fPIC $_XXFLAGS" \
LDFLAGS=" -fPIC -static -s -L$HOME/build/cross/sys-root/usr/lib -lm -lc" --prefix="$HOME/build/cross/sys-root/usr" \
--disable-ogg --disable-oggtest --disable-rpath --disable-xmms-plugin --disable-cpplibs --disable-altivec \
--disable-3dnow --disable-thorough-tests --disable-doxygen-docs
cd src/libFLAC
make
cd .libs
arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-ld -shared -s -o libFLAC.so -whole-archive libFLAC.a
And now we have shared library libFLAC.so, lybrary without any dependency, and which we can just copy in /system/lib
on device and use it from any program.
For programming on libFLAC you must see header files of libFLAC
10. Building xvid in shared library, without any dependecy, same as libFLAC.
cd src/build/generic
./configure --host=arm --target=arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi CC="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-gcc" \
CXX="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-g++" STRIP="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-strip" \
AR="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-ar" AS="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-as" \
LD="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-ld" RANLIB="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-ranlib" \
OBJDUMP="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-objdump" NM="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-nm" \
CROSS_COMPILE="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-" \
CFLAGS=" -nodefaultlibs -nostdlib -fPIC $_XXFLAGS" \
CXXFLAGS=" -nodefaultlibs -nostdlib -fPIC $_XXFLAGS" \
LDFLAGS=" -fPIC -static -s -L$HOME/build/cross/sys-root/usr/lib -lm -lc" --prefix="$HOME/build/cross/sys-root/usr"
cd =build
rm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-ld -shared -s -o libxvidcore.so -whole-archive libxvidcore.a
So we have libxvidcore.so, which using very-very simple and copy-only-use too.
11. Building nmap
svn co --username guest --password "" svn://svn.insecure.org/nmap/
cd nmap
./configure --host=arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi CC="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-gcc" \
CROSS_COMPILE="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-" CFLAGS=" -static $_XXFLAGS" \
CXXFLAGS=" -static $_XXFLAGS" \
--prefix="$HOME/build/cross/sys-root/system/usr/local" --with-lua=included --with-pcap=included --with-pcre=included --with-dnet=included
make
make install
12. Building dropbear
./configure --host=arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi CC="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-gcc" \
CROSS_COMPILE="arm-android-linux-uclibcgnueabi-" \
CFLAGS=" -static $_XXFLAGS" \
--prefix="$HOME/build/cross/sys-root/system/usr/local" --disable-zlib
make
make install
copy dbclient, dropbearconvert and dropbearkey in /system/bin
copy dropbear in /system/sbin
chown root on all copied files
chmod 755 on all copied files

Hi, I've been folowing your howto in order to build busybox but when I download the my.zip file I think it's corrupted or something because it's empty and I can't extract the config files. Could you check it please? Thanks in advance

the my.zip file is compressed strangely. I was able to open it using 7-zip then opened the "my" file in there and it showed a bunch of file within it. Can the op look into his archive and see about recompressing it in a more compliant format. It isn't a zip file.
EDIT: Actually forget it. When you download it replace the .zip with .tar.bz2 or you can just append it to the filename probably if the .zip part isn't showing for you. It's a bzip2 compressed tar archive.

worked like a charm. Thanks!!

I would like to thank you for this guide. With it (and a small alteration to my own busybox .config) I was able to build 1.18.5 and 1.19.0.git with network support working finally. The files are a bit bigger for my taste but I'll go back and see if I can get a dynamic build next.
The flash* items (flashcp, flash_lock, flash_unlock, flash_eraseall) will not build unless you get the mtd-utils package from the android repo.
EDIT: It will dynamic build but I came across a roadblock. The uClibc included on my phone already is 0.9.31 and the toolchain built 0.9.30.2 so I'm changing it up a bit... Should be fine though.
Dynamic link reduces from 1.7MB to ~1.0MB

Here is russian version of manual http://wiki.androidfan.ru/Сборка_c_нуля
Also there some updates too: https://www.droid-developers.org/wiki/Toolchain

Easy way to build jupp… if you’ve got Debian, that is.

Thank you very much for liking jupp and publishing him here!
If you’re running Debian on an ARM system, there’s an even easier way to get jupp.
• set up the system for building packages (or login to a Debian porterbox like harris.debian.org and switch into the “sid” chroot): install the build-essential package
• install debhelper and autotools-dev
• install dietlibc-dev (or libklibc-dev, but I tested with dietlibc-dev right now as I cannot install libklibc-dev on the porterbox by myself)
• go to packages.debian.org/source/sid/jupp and figure out the download link to the .dsc file
• download that with “dget”:
Code:
dget -d http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/j/jupp/jupp_3.1.23-1.dsc
(of course, adjust the link; this is the version up to date at the time of this writing)
• extract the package (adjust the name as usual):
Code:
dpkg-source -x jupp_3.1.23-1.dsc
• switch into the source directory:
Code:
cd jupp-3.1.23/
• run a compilation:
Code:
env DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=diet fakeroot debian/rules binary
(or DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=klibc)
Now you have in the directories ./debian/jupp/ and ./debian/joe-jupp/ the full build result. Test it by running
Code:
./debian/jupp/usr/bin/jupp
(you can press ^Kq, that is Ctrl-K followed by q, to exit it immediately; remember ^J (Ctrl-J) opens the help).
Now install the following files into their final locations:
• debian/jupp/etc/jupp/* to /etc/jupp/ (including subdirectories)
• debian/jupp/usr/bin/jupp to /usr/bin/jupp
• optionally, debian/joe-jupp/etc/jupp/ to /etc/jupp/ and the symlinks from debian/joe-jupp/usr/bin/ to /usr/bin/
Strictly speaking, for running “jupp”, no other file than the executable is needed, and that can be in any path. It includes a copy of jupprc in the executable, although without syntax highlighting.
If you have to change the paths, look at the file debian/rules (--prefix, --sysconfdir, --mandir although you don’t need the mandir) and debian/jupp.install and debian/joe-jupp.install (install paths) before compiling.
JOE finds the *rc files by looking into a path that is set at compile time (if --sysconfdir=/etc it looks into /etc/joe/ but debian/rules also sets sysconfjoesubdir=/jupp at make time, so it uses /etc/jupp/ instead), a file that’s the basename of the editor command plus “rc”, so /usr/bin/jfoo will let it load jfoorc. The klingon charmap and the syntax files are expected in subdirectories of where the configs (rc files) are.
Hope that helps!
If you want, I’m in the IRC channel #MirBSD and #!/bin/mksh on Freenode IRC network, and can help (but will assume you’re either running Debian/ARM or have your cross compiler set up correctly).

[GUIDE][DEV] Compile any source built rom for your device [ULTRA NOOB FRIENDLY]

I know there are many other guides avalable regarding this, But I tried to focus on the small points also that many guides overlook
that's why I have this for you. Do let know if I have missed something or more details have to be included in case still there is a difficulty in compiling
This thread on Madteam Forums: http://madteam.co/forum/development...lt-rom-for-your-device-(ultra-noob-friendly)/
So lets start with simple things
Basic FAQ:
Q: What is a Source built rom?
A: Source Built Roms are roms that are compiled from source on a Linux Platform! They are not themed manually.
Q: How do we build these type of roms?
A: Setup Linux and then follow this guide.

This post/guide is divided into 4 parts:
1. Setting up build environment
2. Machine specifications etc.
3. Device Tree and source basics
4. Syncing Source and Building
PART 1: Setting up build environment​
Type sudo su and then your password to get rid of Admin Permissions
#Installing Python
STEP 1: Open terminal (CTRL + ALT + T)
Then execute the following commands in terminal one by one
Code:
sudo apt-get install build-essential gcc
cd Downloads
wget http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.5.6/Python-2.5.6.tgz
tar -xvzf Python-2.5.6.tgz
cd Python-2.5.6
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/python2.5
make
sudo make install
sudo ln -s /usr/local/python2.5/bin/python /usr/bin/python2.5
Now Python is configured
#Installing JDK
As far as I know PPA which was the earlier method of installing JDK etc. doesn't exist's anymore, So I used another way!
Step 1: Open Terminal (CTRL + ALT + T)
STEP 2: Now we need to download the JDK 6 Binary by executing this command in terminal
Code:
wget --no-check-certificate --no-cookies --header "Cookie: gpw_e24=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.oracle.com" "http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/6u45-b06/jdk-6u45-linux-x64.bin"
STEP 3: Then we need to run the binary and move it to a shared location:
Code:
chmod +x jdk-6u45-linux-x64.bin
sudo ./jdk-6u45-linux-x64.bin
sudo mv jdk1.6.0_45 /usr/lib/jvm/
STEP 4: Now you have to install all binaries and give them highest priority, This will also overwrite the previous version of Java Binaries in your computer
Code:
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/java 1
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javac javac /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/javac 1
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javaws javaws /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/javaws 1
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/jar jar /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/jar 1
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javadoc javadoc /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/javadoc 1
STEP 5: Now check if JDK 1.6 is selected on this:
Code:
sudo update-alternatives --config java
sudo update-alternatives --config javac
sudo update-alternatives --config javaws
sudo update-alternatives --config jar
sudo update-alternatives --config javadoc
Now JDK is configured! To check if it is done
Execute this is Terminal
Code:
java -version
Output will be similar to this
Code:
java version "1.6.0_45"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_45-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.45-b01, mixed mode)
#Installing GNU Make
Code:
cd Downloads
wget -o make.tar.gz http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make/make-3.81.tar.gz
tar -xvzf make-3.81.tar.gz
cd make-3.82
./configure
sudo make install
These commands are for Make 1.81 if you want to install Make 1.82 Execute these
Code:
cd
wget -o make.tar.gz http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make/make-3.82.tar.gz
tar -xvzf make-3.82.tar.gz
cd make-3.82
./configure
sudo make install
Now GNU make is configures
#Installing Android SDK
STEP ONE: Download the SDK from http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html and extract it in a folder called "sdk" in the Downloads folder
STEP TWO: Now, Execute these commands in terminal
Code:
cd ~/Downloads/sdk/tools/
./android sdk
SDK is configured now :victory:
#Installing required packages:
STEP 1: Open Terminal
Now execute these commands:
Code:
apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential \
zip curl zlib1g-dev libc6-dev libncurses5-dev x11proto-core-dev \
libx11-dev libreadline6-dev libgl1-mesa-dev tofrodos python-markdown \
libxml2-utils xsltproc pngcrush gcc-multilib lib32z1 schedtool
Good, Now you have successfully setup linux build environment!​
PART 2: Machine specifications and other misc. stuff​
Basic Computer Specs:
2Ghz Dual Core Processor
2GB Minimum ram
50GB File Space (For only one rom source)
*PLEASE NOTE*: This is the basic specification, It really depends on the condition of your ram and cpu!
If you want to use other apps while compilation you should make a 5GB minimum swap partition!
If ram is more than 4GB ram then you don't swap partition!
PART 3: DEVICE TREE AND SOURCE BASICS​
Basic source folders:
/packages - Proprietary rom applications
/framework - Framework (Overall rom UI and stuff)
/device - Device config
/vendor - Vendor Tree and other vendor files
/hardware - Hardware drivers
Q: What is BoardConfig.mk?
A: It's the file where you setup path's to files like toolchain etc. and enable/disable stuff, its very easy to understand. You can find it in your device's tree
Q: Where is build.prop in source?
A. Build.prop is available in the source in the form of system.prop in the device tree!
Q: How to remove ringtones, video editor, CM wallpapers from bulid?
A: Go to device/releasetools/extras.txt and Delete anything you don't want in your build
PART 4: Syncing Source and Building​
# Installing Repo Package
Code:
mkdir ~/bin
curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
STEP 2: Now it is recommended to reboot your computer (No need of sudo su after reboot)
STEP 3: Now make directory:
Code:
mkdir -p ~/rom/android/system
STEP 4: Go into directory and set path for Repo Package
Code:
cd ~/rom/android/system
PATH=~/bin:$PATH
STEP 5: NOW ITS TIME FOR SYNCING:
Their are different sources for different roms:
Some are listed bellow:
MIUI - www.github.com/micode/
Rootbox - www.github.com/Root-Box/
rasbeanjelly - www.github.com/rascarlo/
Xylon AOSP - www.github.com/xyaosp/
PAC-Man - www.github.com/PAC-Man/
CyanogenMod - www.github.com/Cyanogenmod/
CarbonROM - www.github.com/carbondev/
SaberMOD - www.github.com/SaberMOD/
AOKP - www.github.com/AOKP/
From the above collection some are Gingerbread some are ICS and some are JB 4.1/4.2 you have to visit these links via browser and see which source is which and follow the commands given at android.git/platform_manifest.git
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
For CM10.1 source execute this:
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm10.1
For syncing CM10 source execute:
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b jellybean
You have to find for the rest!!
PS: You don't have to execute all the repo init commands written above
Now to sync execute this after the the repo init command
Code:
repo sync
Once it finishes without breaking all the folders will appear in rom/android/system folder
now execute this:
Code:
mkdir -p ~/rom/android/system/device/<ManufacturerName>/<DeviceCodeName>
and extract the device config/tree here
for me its samsung/totoro (galaxy Y, Don't mind )
then do the following:
Code:
mkdir -p ~/rom/android/system/vendor/<ManufacturerName>/<DeviceCodename>
Its the same as for the device folder
Now for compiling:
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch cm_<DeviceCodename>-eng
brunch cm_<DeviceCodename>-eng
Your build will be located at /rom/android/system/out as <RomName>-date/month/year-UNOFFICIAL-<DeviceCodeName>.zip

Great Guide!!
This is very kind of you to make this helpful thread. It really helped me alot after setting up my new build environment. I ran into an error on you post that you may want to correct, other than that, great work! Here is the typo
"cd Downloads
wget -o make.tar.gz http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make/make-3.81.tar.gz
tar -xvzf make-3.81.tar.gz<--this is correct.
cd make-3.82<---it changes here.
./configure
sudo make install"

Hello guys!
I have an error at brunch:

Anyone knows what's causing it? It couldn't be the roomservice.xml in local_manifest as I used the one which another person successfully built CM with. I also repo sync'ed a few times already. I tried make clobber and built again, but nothing :crying:
I am building PACMAN ROM (4.3) now by the way.
All help is appreciated (with a thank!)

Greedings everyone
For some time now i am trying to download and compile CyanongenMod Sources for my Device. I Install VirtualBox + Linux Mint + all the needed stuff. Then i do the repo init and everything looks ok but when i do the repo sync it always throw me a error fetch stop because of sync errors. Ive done it a lot of time with no luck. Also i tried the repo sync -f which finaly finishes fetching things but stops at getting the project tree. Can anyone help me? :/ its really frustrating

I know there are many other guides avalable regarding this, But I tried to focus on the small points also that many guides overlook
that's why I have this for you. Do let know if I have missed something or more details have to be included in case still there is a difficulty in compiling
This thread on Madteam Forums: http://madteam.co/forum/development...lt-rom-for-your-device-(ultra-noob-friendly)/
So lets start with simple things
Basic FAQ:
This post/guide is divided into 4 parts:
1. Setting up build environment
2. Machine specifications etc.
3. Device Tree and source basics
4. Syncing Source and Building
PART 1: Setting up build environment​
Type sudo su and then your password to get rid of Admin Permissions
#Installing Python
STEP 1: Open terminal (CTRL + ALT + T)
Then execute the following commands in terminal one by one
Code:
sudo apt-get install build-essential gcc
cd Downloads
wget http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.5.6/Python-2.5.6.tgz
tar -xvzf Python-2.5.6.tgz
cd Python-2.5.6
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/python2.5
make
sudo make install
sudo ln -s /usr/local/python2.5/bin/python /usr/bin/python2.5
Now Python is configured
#Installing JDK
As far as I know PPA which was the earlier method of installing JDK etc. doesn't exist's anymore, So I used another way!
Step 1: Open Terminal (CTRL + ALT + T)
STEP 2: Now we need to download the JDK 6 Binary by executing this command in terminal
Code:
wget --no-check-certificate --no-cookies --header "Cookie: gpw_e24=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.oracle.com" "http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/java/jdk/6u45-b06/jdk-6u45-linux-x64.bin"
STEP 3: Then we need to run the binary and move it to a shared location:
Code:
chmod +x jdk-6u45-linux-x64.bin
sudo ./jdk-6u45-linux-x64.bin
sudo mv jdk1.6.0_45 /usr/lib/jvm/
STEP 4: Now you have to install all binaries and give them highest priority, This will also overwrite the previous version of Java Binaries in your computer
Code:
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/java 1
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javac javac /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/javac 1
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javaws javaws /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/javaws 1
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/jar jar /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/jar 1
sudo update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/javadoc javadoc /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/javadoc 1
STEP 5: Now check if JDK 1.6 is selected on this:
Code:
sudo update-alternatives --config java
sudo update-alternatives --config javac
sudo update-alternatives --config javaws
sudo update-alternatives --config jar
sudo update-alternatives --config javadoc
Now JDK is configured! To check if it is done
Execute this is Terminal
Code:
java -version
Output will be similar to this
Code:
java version "1.6.0_45"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_45-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.45-b01, mixed mode)
#Installing GNU Make
Code:
cd Downloads
wget -o make.tar.gz http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make/make-3.81.tar.gz
tar -xvzf make-3.81.tar.gz
cd make-3.82
./configure
sudo make install
These commands are for Make 1.81 if you want to install Make 1.82 Execute these
Code:
cd
wget -o make.tar.gz http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make/make-3.82.tar.gz
tar -xvzf make-3.82.tar.gz
cd make-3.82
./configure
sudo make install
Now GNU make is configures
#Installing Android SDK
STEP ONE: Download the SDK from http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html and extract it in a folder called "sdk" in the Downloads folder
STEP TWO: Now, Execute these commands in terminal
Code:
cd ~/Downloads/sdk/tools/
./android sdk
SDK is configured now :victory:
#Installing required packages:
STEP 1: Open Terminal
Now execute these commands:
Code:
apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential \
zip curl zlib1g-dev libc6-dev libncurses5-dev x11proto-core-dev \
libx11-dev libreadline6-dev libgl1-mesa-dev tofrodos python-markdown \
libxml2-utils xsltproc pngcrush gcc-multilib lib32z1 schedtool
Good, Now you have successfully setup linux build environment!​
PART 2: Machine specifications and other misc. stuff​
Basic Computer Specs:
2Ghz Dual Core Processor
2GB Minimum ram
50GB File Space (For only one rom source)
*PLEASE NOTE*: This is the basic specification, It really depends on the condition of your ram and cpu!
If you want to use other apps while compilation you should make a 5GB minimum swap partition!
If ram is more than 4GB ram then you don't swap partition!
PART 3: DEVICE TREE AND SOURCE BASICS​
Basic source folders:
/packages - Proprietary rom applications
/framework - Framework (Overall rom UI and stuff)
/device - Device config
/vendor - Vendor Tree and other vendor files
/hardware - Hardware drivers
Q: What is BoardConfig.mk?
A: It's the file where you setup path's to files like toolchain etc. and enable/disable stuff, its very easy to understand. You can find it in your device's tree
Q: Where is build.prop in source?
A. Build.prop is available in the source in the form of system.prop in the device tree!
Q: How to remove ringtones, video editor, CM wallpapers from bulid?
A: Go to device/releasetools/extras.txt and Delete anything you don't want in your build
PART 4: Syncing Source and Building​
# Installing Repo Package
Code:
mkdir ~/bin
curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
STEP 2: Now it is recommended to reboot your computer (No need of sudo su after reboot)
STEP 3: Now make directory:
Code:
mkdir -p ~/rom/android/system
STEP 4: Go into directory and set path for Repo Package
Code:
cd ~/rom/android/system
PATH=~/bin:$PATH
STEP 5: NOW ITS TIME FOR SYNCING:
For CM10.1 source execute this:
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm10.1
For syncing CM10 source execute:
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b jellybean
You have to find for the rest!!
PS: You don't have to execute all the repo init commands written above
Now to sync execute this after the the repo init command
Code:
repo sync
Once it finishes without breaking all the folders will appear in rom/android/system folder
now execute this:
Code:
mkdir -p ~/rom/android/system/device/<ManufacturerName>/<DeviceCodeName>
and extract the device config/tree here
for me its samsung/totoro (galaxy Y, Don't mind )
then do the following:
Code:
mkdir -p ~/rom/android/system/vendor/<ManufacturerName>/<DeviceCodename>
Its the same as for the device folder
Now for compiling:
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch cm_<DeviceCodename>-eng
brunch cm_<DeviceCodename>-eng
Your build will be located at /rom/android/system/out as <RomName>-date/month/year-UNOFFICIAL-<DeviceCodeName>.zip
HAPPY COMPILING ​

I had two things to ask
1)Was installing android-sdk needed
2)If device not yet had a cm build or device tree how to get them

[How To] Setup ABE For Compiling Android Roms From Source (CM11) UPDATED 11/1/14

Setup ABE (Android Build Environment To Compile Roms) ​
For this you tutorial you need to be running Ubuntu 13.10 64-Bit (32-Bit Will Not Work).
Does Not Matter if you are running this in a virtual machine or not. (Will work on Both)
Also I will also be showing a Guide to Syncing CM11 Repo and TamsuiCM11 Repo.
Instructions (Read Carefully):
First, let's set up the correct JDK.
Many of you probably have some kind of wrong Java installed unless you're starting with a fresh Ubuntu base, and even then maybe.
Let's get rid of that. Copy and paste this into a Terminal window:
Code:
sudo apt-get purge openjdk-\* icedtea-\* icedtea6-\*
Follow the instructions to remove OpenJDK. If you must keep it, it's possible. But I'm not going to tell you how to do it here. I don't want any chance of confusion or mistake.
Now copy and paste the following into the Terminal:
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java
This will add the correct PPA to your system for updated builds of Java 6 JDK that are compatible with 13.10. No more unrecognized Java version errors! And it will update automatically with the rest of your system.
Next, we actually need to install the package. More copy-paste:
Code:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install oracle-java6-installer
Ok, back to a fresh Terminal prompt. Time for installing the guts to build stuff in Ubuntu:
Code:
sudo apt-get install git-core lzop ccache gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential zip curl zlib1g-dev zlib1g-dev:i386 libc6-dev lib32ncurses5 lib32z1 lib32bz2-1.0 lib32ncurses5-dev x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev:i386 libreadline6-dev:i386 lib32z-dev libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 libgl1-mesa-dev g++-multilib mingw32 tofrodos python-markdown libxml2-utils xsltproc readline-common libreadline6-dev libreadline6 lib32readline-gplv2-dev libncurses5-dev lib32readline5 lib32readline6 libreadline-dev libreadline6-dev:i386 libreadline6:i386 bzip2 libbz2-dev libbz2-1.0 libghc-bzlib-dev lib32bz2-dev libsdl1.2-dev libesd0-dev squashfs-tools pngcrush schedtool libwxgtk2.8-dev python gcc g++ cpp gcc-4.8 g++-4.8
When that is done installing, run the following command in your Terminal window:
Code:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libGL.so
That's it on the package side of things.
You guessed it, time for more Terminal. This really is the easiest way, seriously. And it's totally worth it when you're basking in the glory of a bunch of people on XDA.
The binary for a program called "repo" will let you talk to git servers and download all that precious source code. That second part after the && allows it to be executable:
Code:
mkdir ~/bin && curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo && chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
Use your favorite text editor to open ~/.bashrc
I like nano:
Code:
sudo nano ~/.bashrc
At the very bottom, add the following line:
Code:
export PATH=~/bin:$PATH
Save it. In nano that would be Ctrl-O and then Enter. Then Ctrl-X to exit back to a prompt. Restart bash:
Code:
source ~/.bashrc
In the terminal, navigate to where you would like to store the Android source code. The directions below will make it in your home folder, but if you have limited space, you may want to create it somewhere else. Faster is better, i.e. SSD would be best, USB external is basically unusable. Here we go:
Code:
mkdir ~/cm11
cd ~/cm11
We will configure your information, your name and email address, In terminal type:
Code:
git config --global user.name your name
git config --global user.email your email
Now you're going to initialize the repo. Here's where you decide the flavor of Android you want to build for, ie AOKP, CyanogenMod, AOSP etc. The following, for the purposes of this tutorial, will initialize for Stable CM11:
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b stable/cm-11.0
Almost there. Last step, but it's a doozy. You're going to get the source. Prepare yourself, mere mortal. 10+ GB of downloading await you. Don't worry, it's automated. Go to sleep. Eat something. Perhaps you have heard of this new thing the kids are doing called "going outside"? Yeah, I didn't think so. Me neither. The final terminal command, to be run from your android directory:
Code:
repo sync
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After that is done its time to Sync TamsuiCM11 Repo:
Go into your file browser and to your username then your cm11 folder, once there press Ctrl+H on your keyboard. Go into the folder .repo and make a folder called:
Code:
local_manifests
Once done exit out of the repo folder and press Ctrl+H on your keyboard once again.
Now its time you configure the local manifest, this will download all necessary files for the devices in this forum.
Type this in terminal:
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh
[B]breakfast jlo[/B] (For Xperia J) [B]tapioca[/B] (For Xperia Tipo) [B]mesona[/B] (For Xperia Miro) [B]nanhu_ds[/B] (For Xperia E)
gedit ~/cm11/.repo/local_manifests/local_manifest.xml
Now go to this link: https://github.com/TamsuiCM11/local_manifest/blob/master/tamsui.xml
Copy everything in the file into the open window of gedit hit save and close.
Go back to Terminal and type:
Code:
repo sync
This will download all necessary files, once done type the following into terminal:
Code:
cd ~/cm11/vendor/cm
. get-prebuilts
croot
Finally type:
Code:
[B]brunch jlo[/B] (For Xperia J) [B]tapioca[/B] (For Xperia Tipo) [B]mesona[/B] (For Xperia Miro) [B]nanhu_ds[/B] (For Xperia E
It will begin to build, if you run into any errors, do some research before creating tons of threads.
THANK ME IF I HELPED!

Thanks a lot for the how to. I'm just "syncing" (don't know if this is how it is said, just entered the command that downloads 10Gb) and it is doing the job! Don't know why this has only 5 "thanks", I found it very useful!!
JUST ONE QUESTION!! If I type breakfast tapioca it gives me "no such file or directory" error. If I type "tapioca_ss" it gives me no problems. Is it right?
Thanks

In your home folder, look in cm11/devices. If there's a folder called tapioca_ss, then you need to use tapioca_ss. If there's a folder called tapioca, then you need to use tapioca.
Yes, this guide is very useful, but unfortunately, you can only thank a post once (I did)!

One last question (new it's true lol): I get "make" errors (ERROR 1) when compiling audio drivers. I don't know why, but I'm trying to repeat the how to as root!

I don't think you should do this as root; I've seen some guides that say doing so might deter the building process.
And you're welcome.

[HOW-TO] Quick Guide on How to Compile Heimdall from Source in MacOS - OSX Yosemite

So, I was able to compile and flash my Galaxy J5 from my Mac OSX Yosemite command line, and I'd like to share the experience. I'm a beginner at flashing and the Android world, so I struggled to understand I did not need Odin for taking control over my Galaxy J5.
The following should work for most versions of OSX / MacOS, as long as you have a compiler installed. But I've only tested it in my Yosemite machine.
All binary packages for Heimdall did not work for me. I was getting a persistent "libusb error -7 whilst sending packet". So I decided to build everything from source and forget about Odin, JOdin3 and the like.
I already had a development environment setup in my Mac, with the stock Xcode cc compiler. So I can only relate the additional dependencies I had to install (+ GIT). But it could be that I had additional software that is required from my brew installed packages. At the end of the post I list all my brew installed packages just in case.
1) Make sure you have a compiler (Xcode dev tools) installed. This is standard Apple stuff. Just google "install xcode mac" for your Mac version.
2) Install Homebrew (url is brew.sh), and the following packages:
Code:
brew install git
brew install cmake
3) Build libusb from source
Code:
cd /tmp
git clone https://github.com/libusb/libusb
cd libusb
./autogen.sh
make
cd /tmp
4) Build Heimdall
Code:
cd /tmp
git clone https://github.com/Benjamin-Dobell/Heimdall
cd Heimdall/
cmake -DLIBUSB_LIBRARY=/tmp/libusb/libusb -DLIBUSB_INCLUDE_DIR=/tmp/libusb/libusb -DDISABLE_FRONTEND=1 .
make
5) If you had no errors in the previous make steps, run Heimdall. You ca print your PIT, flash, etc, from the command line and never use Odin AFAIK. Take your phone into "Download Mode" (Vol Down + Home + Power button from a powered down state). Then try the print-pit Heimdall command (which takes a few minutes to complete).
Code:
cd /tmp/Heimdall/bin
sudo ./heimdall print-pit --no-reboot
sudo ./heimdall flash --17 recovery.img
etc....
BTW, move both Heimdall and libusb directories out of /tmp/ if you intend to preserve them after your Mac reboots. Create something like /Users/[your_user]/build/ to keep it safe and replave all "/tmp/" dirs in the lines above with your destination directory.
Have fun!
=====================
The following is a list of all my brew-installed packages, just in case you're missing a dependency and not sure which package I had that could make this work in my machine.
Code:
~/dev/build/Heimdall$ brew list
android-sdk gifsicle id3lib meld redis
atk git imagemagick net-snmp ruby
autoconf glew jbig2dec netcat scala
automake glib jpeg nettle sdl2

I need help starting Apache server with PHP on Android

I'm trying to start a web server on my LAN, but there are some problems. Can't set Default Charset to UTF-8 on my site or enable .htaccess for setting it. Tried adding AddDefaultCharset UTF-8 to the end of apache's httpd.conf file, without success,my phone is rooted, this is not so important for the question itself.
Bellow are the codes that I run from scratch at Termux:
apt update && yes | apt upgrade && yes | pkg install autoconf automake bison bzip2 clang cmake coreutils diffutils flex gawk git grep gzip libtool make patch perl sed silversearcher-ag tar apache2 php php-apache
ln -s /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/etc/ ~/etc
touch ~/etc/apache2/extra/php-module.conf
Then the changes made to httpd.conf:
LoadModule mpm_prefork_module libexec/apache2/mod_mpm_prefork.so without # at start
LoadModule rewrite_module libexec/apache2/mod_rewrite.so without # at start
New lines added
LoadModule php_module /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/libexec/apache2/libphp.so
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
AddHandler php-script .php
At end = Include etc/apache2/extra/php-module.conf
Is something else missing?
My site has problems with accents, invalid characters appear, so I need to change the charset!
