Hello guys,
Since i couldn't find any Custom or Stock rom for OT-993 (not 993D), I'm trying to compile it form the source code,
Only found an open source firmware, Which need to be compiled first in order to be flashed via custom recovery,

How to start building custom roms?

Hey folks,
I'm a android developer and after my phone mess with custom rom (Fixed with the help of you guys :good: ) I got curious about how to build a custom rom?

How do you guys started?
Note : I'm just an android developer and I don't have C, C++ knowledge, But I'm very much familiar with Java :)

Thanks in advance!

Building CWM for new device

Hello,

I have Huawei MediaPad 7 Youth, rooted. And, any rom or recovery is not released. So i wanted to build it yourself. For start i want to say, im not newbie, im a programmer, but in C++ and building (mainly other sources) am newbie.

So, for first, i dumped a boot.img and recovery.img . dump_image command its not on my device, i tryied install a busybox etc.. but none, so i manually dumped it with dd.

Next, on my Ubuntu i installed all dependecies and synchronized CM10.2 repo. Then i builded otatools (make -j2 otatools) and i taked envsetup. I dont know, but envsetup dont added to path to execs like unpackbootimg etc. so i do that manually (i resynced twice a repo, but i still got this trouble). I extracted needed files from boot.img, and from output of mkvendor.sh i taked a lunch and makerecoveries.sh .

After some tryies of compile (still got some trouble) i ended here and now i dont know what to do. Console output:

Code:

Building ICS from source

Hey everyone,

I have my dev environment setup on my Linux machine, and am interested in starting an AOSP build of 4.0.4 (remove touchwiz and keep it stock), and have been following the guides for building from source, but I am stuck.

-setup dev environment
-downloaded source
-ensured I have all packages

where do I go from here?
In http://xda-university.com/as-a-devel...id-from-source it tells me to setup a device target. I have pulled down the Samsung source files from their open source site. Where do I deposit these? Just a bit confused on how to keep rolling on this.

Thanks,
Bluefalcon13

Building my first kernel.

Could someone help me to build a kernel for Cyanogenmod 12 but I need help because I didn't do stuff like this before.Since the developement has stopped for KitKat I would like to maintain it and keep it updated. I have a little knowledge but I still need help. I would like to use UBERtc to compile my kernel.

Problem building CM12.1 with libmdmdetect

I started building a CM12.1 ROM by myself following the steps found in CM building site for the OPO.

The thing is that I get this error

Code:

---

No rule to make target «libmdmdetect»,
needed by «/root/android/system/out/target/product/bacon/obj/lib/libqmi.so»

---

I've read something about getting libmdmdetect from another device (from shamu, for example), but I don't know how and I don't know where to put it. I think the failure is not libqmi.so, since it needs the other one.

I'm a noob making my first steps on making ROMs by myself. Any help would be helpful.
