Hi guys, I would like to ask you what IDE's and other software I need to make and modify android roms. I am particularly looking at helping with ICS production. I know java and some C++ if this helps, I am unsure of what to use whether that be eclipse or some other IDE/SDk. Also there are a few file types I am unfamiliar with and want to know how to edit those such as .so's and other files. Thanks P500 community you guys are awesome D
If you haven't already, I'd highly reccomend setting up a build environment and trying to sync the cm repos. Once you have the code, you can play around and see what you need from there, in terms of an IDE.

Fantastic, I shall get onto that right away.
May the force be with you, bro!

Read some android books.you already know c++ and Java so you will become good dev.
For playing with code you need.
Ubuntu.
Notepad.
sdk & adb.
And this "good luck!"
Yeah! Actually even i am interested in learning.
I know c/c++. No java yet
I'll be finishing my exams on the 3rd of may and would have around 2 months of vacations to learn
So guidance would really be appreciated. Do we need a separate sdk for linux based os? I have sdk on windows, isnt that enough?
What is the advantage of using linux for android development? I have backtrack(ubuntu based) on vmware. Will it do?
Essential Software:
Ubuntu 11.10 (dual boot not virtual machine, it's too slow)

I'm assuming you're coming from Windows since you don't know what a .so file is (like I did when starting). .so files are android's versions of .dll files. 'executables' don't have a file extension. Kernel modules use the .ko extension.
(I think .so means shared object, .ko means kernel object. Makes sense to me anyway )
The worst thing about starting is simply the sheer size of the project, it is a whole operating system we are dealing with here!
Start simple and easy, follow the instructions on how to make your own build and flash it. (and feel proud you have your own build string in about phone!) Then do it again without the instructions. (harder than it sounds )
The programming side may not be such a problem for you if you already know it. I didn't know anything. reading library files written in c++ ain't so bad, but getting used to how an android app is written in java was a huge mindf**k for me at first.It still is actually
I'm really just your average code hacker, I just hack based on educated guesses but I have taken copious notes on what I do and how things work. Seriously, I have two A5 notebooks full of lists, commands, file locations, diagrams and other tips I've found over the past 6 months.
Prepare to read a lot, be confused a lot, say WTF?!?!?! a lot, delighted when you make your first changes and they work, a ton of waiting for builds to finish and perhaps a bit nervous when you are ready to submit your first commit to CyanogenMod...
Can't we practice on something less taxing than the the whole cyanogenmod, like maybe some prebuilt system apps?
I have allocated 2.9gb of ram and enough cpu to my vm for it to run smoothly so speed isn't really an issue here
Will backtrack do or would ubuntu be better(backtrack is a network security related os based on ubuntu only)
And how important is java. I have two months of almost pure vacations(just have to make a project) so time wont be much of an issue and i'll anyway be doing java in a year or two at college so starting now wont be any harm.
BTW just curious why is g+ account an essentiality here?
Edit
Oh and yeah ill be switching from win to linux and that IS going to be a pretty big problem :/
I don't even properly know what a kernel is and what it does.
Edit2
Iv added you to my circles adfad please add me.
These guides could help!

I think it can't know I've added another device. Does anybody know how to solve this problem? I'm sure it's something pretty stupid...
P.S. I'm using Ubuntu 11.10
EDIT: Ok, I think I've done something wrong syncing androidmeda sources.
What I've done is:
Code:
[email protected]:~$ cd WORKING_DIRECTORY
[email protected]:~/WORKING_DIRECTORY$ repo init -u git://github.com/androidmeda/cm_device_lge_p500.git
repo initialized in /home/francesco/WORKING_DIRECTORY
[email protected]:~/WORKING_DIRECTORY$ repo sync
Fetching projects: 100% (248/248), done.
Syncing work tree: 100% (248/248), done.
I've done this for git://github.com/androidmeda/cm_vendor_lge_p500.git and git://github.com/androidmeda/lge-kernel-msm7x27.git too. I can't see them though.
Solved the problem. Cloned androidmeda's device folder into device/lge/p500
EDIT2: FINALLY COMPILING!
EDIT3:
Code:
make: *** Nessuna regola per generare l'obiettivo "device/lge/p500/init.p500.usb.rc
It's 'No rule to make target'. I don't know what to do, I can't even find that file, but I've got a file called init.thunderg.usb.rc
Solved renaming init.thunderg.usb.rc to init.p500.usb.rc. It's compiling now

Ok, I'm trying to tidy up everything a bit. I've noticed there is a new github. I've seen this:
Code:

Copy/paste it WORKING_DIR/.repo/local_manifest.xml

<manifest>
<project path="device/lge/p500" name="p500/cm_device_lge_p500" remote="github" revision="master" />

<project path="kernel/lge/p500" name="p500/lge-kernel-msm7x27" remote="github" revision="android-ics-msm-2.6.35" />
</manifest>
I have no local_manifest.xml. Do I have to create it? Or do I have to add these three lines to manifest.xml (which is in .repo folder)? And do I have to add toolchain too?
Question: if installing Ubuntu with wubi on Windows XP, will it show the dual-boot screen on every boot?(or else what shortcut?)
And does it need to defragment, or is it safe just like that?

No idea, never tried.
If you understand anything:

Why dont you use vmware instead?

yea I did that... but did anyone try it on XP, it says it failed incompatibility tests or something (same error I got when trying to install windows 7 video drivers on xp) and I don't wanna risk, anyone?
I don't think it's good to install ubuntu to compile android in a virtual machine, I think the compilation would be too slow. I'm sorry I can't help you, I've installed ubuntu from a Live CD and I didn't have many problems with the installation process.
BTW, added the three lines to manifest.xml synced repo. It's compiling well using make -j4

if you have enough ram and a good enough processor there shouldnt be any problem in using a virtual machine. i use backtrack with 2.9/4gb ram and am able to use both windows7 and backtrack simultaneously without any problems/lag
I have an i5 2.3-2.9GHz
Sure it depends on what you want to compile. It was just a suggestion to compile faster. You probably won't notice lag, but it will take more to compile everything.
Hi guys,
My Atrix -> Xoom kernel port is complete. This is the nvodm version.
Right now I am trying to make a build of CM 9 based on my kernel and running into lots of hiccups
Yeap I am a noob so please bear with me. I am following the steps from http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Build_for_olympus, and got stuck at the step "Prepare the device-specific code"

I think that the best way to solve this problem is pm someone that already build a rom from source as you wanna do.
Try to reach MMontuori or EPinter (both really kind and will help for sure) by pm, just a tip hehe.
Hope you can build it, best of luck.
Sorry but this mean that we have a new kernel to get full cm9/10/10.1 roms? W/o All the bugs like the videocam...?
Thanks for the hard work!

Your kernel is booting?
Its a full port from Xoom or you are using the leaked Kernel?
Able to retrieve logs from USB?
Whats your status?
This is very important, because there is another porting project running (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2016837) and maybe your kernel source is better to keep up than the one they are trying to port.
Please... communicate!

Hey matbarni; take it easy and read the first post, not only the title.
It's not a matter of communication; If you can see the thread of the porting, you'll see some posts from user toyota86, which said he was working but in other branch because he has his reasons for it.
Please don't jump into conclussions and try to help, we all are struggling for an usable kernel; and EVERY help is welcome.
I'm sure any of the developers have contacted him by now or he tried to contact the developers, but he wants to see if anyone can give him a quick tip.
Enough. I'll shut my mouth off
Sorry guys. My mind was hazy when I posted that late last night.
What I meant by "complete" was that it simply built. That's it
Some early sanity testing of my kernel with CM7 resulted in a hang. Yes, I agree with most of you that the next logical thing to do is to flash That ROM and fastboot with my kernel. This can be a quick test. But I am a little suspicious the Bionic libraries may need to be rebuilt as well.
I have already sought advice from our Guru mmontuori and he has told me Kernel modules need to be rebuilt.
SO... lets build the whole she-bang

you will need a build without the errata hack in board config, like the cm10 based on the leak. or build using my jb-olympus-new branch.
you can remove all the kernel modules if your defconfig follows android standard...

As you can see, all I posted was questions. And yes, I read what toyota86 posted.
Like "Right now I am trying to make a build of CM 9 based on my kernel and running into lots of hiccups".
The way I am helping is to try to clarify to all users what this post is about.
Thanks for all the support guys
As much as I don't want you guys to be dissapointed, but dont put too much hope as to the outcome of my effort.
Now I have lots on my plate. I will update as I make progress.
thank you
Glad you have been working on this.I tried but abandoned due to insufficient knowledge. atrix was the best buy I've made in years.had it for 3 yes now and thanks to you and others it will live on. Im a trigger happy tester i try every ROM I see and can't wait to try yours.

Thank you sir. One question though..
Which errata hack were you referring to? Errata 657451 in the motorola's version of the bionic library? Eg...
In motorola's bionic, we see workarounds like this:
Code:
/* BEGIN MOT GB UPMERGE, a5705c, 12/21/2010 */
# ifdef HAVE_TEGRA_ERRATA_657451
# define __munge_tls(_v) ( ((_v)&~((1ul<<20)|1ul)) | (((_v)&0x1)<<20) )
# else
# define __munge_tls(_v) (_v)
#endif
/* END MOT GB UPMERGE */
Description of this errata:
Code:
config TEGRA_ERRATA_657451
bool "Store bit 20 of CP15 TLS register c13,3 in bit 0"
depends on ARCH_TEGRA_2x_SOC && HAS_TLS_REG
default y
help
This option enables a workaround for the 657451 Tegra 2 errata
which causes unreliable reads from bit 20 of the thread storage
register c13, 3 (used by the __set_tls system call). It stores the
value intended for bit 20 into bit 0 instead; in most user-space
environments, the value saved by __set_tls is an aligned address,
so repurposing bit 0 will not cause ill effects.
In my noob'ish understanding, there is a hardware related bug in our Atrix Tegra 2 SOC that causing data corruption in Thread Local Storage (TLS). Researching this on the net, some ppl were talking about a possibility of a buggy version of this hardware in Atrix. It is also worth noting that this workaround however is NOT present in Stingray's kernel & bionic.
I don't think I remember seeing this workaround in CM's bionic, which is one of my initial concerns..I will look further at home tonight..
Errrrm... Isn't the Bionic a TI OMAP device?
can you post your kernel so others can test it? i have minimal knowledge but would love to help with testing

How did you solve this? I am trying to build for coconut (SE Live With Walkman) and stuck at breakfast.
i want to admit that im beginner developer that is slowly starting his adventure with rom compiling
after getting rid of tons of errors, configuring sources etc theres one problem i dont know how to fix
Code:
make: *** No rule to make target 'NOTICE-TARGET-STATIC_LIBRARIES-libinit_msm', needed by '/home/android/cm12.1/out/target/product/g2m/root/init'. Stop.
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
spent whole day searching fix for this in google without success
any help would be really appreciated ! : )
would like to remove the file from source but cant find any string including this file in any boardconfig
Similar error from make
Did u find a solution to ur problem? I have a very similar one while trying to build android
Code:
make: *** No rule to make target '/home/robert/android/faosp/out/target/product/surnia/obj/STATIC_LIBRARIES/libinit_msm_intermediates/export_includes', needed by '/home/robert/android/faosp/out/target/product/surnia/obj/EXECUTABLES/init_intermediates/import_includes'
Somewhere i read the error is due to some missing sources but i don't know how i can find out which one.
Make sure you got all your repo's synced completely, also check your manifest, which can give some errors too... maybe this will help you search for these type of problems
yes true, that was my error. i had overseen a project supplying local_manifests in the same repo where i got the kernel, device and vendor sources

did all syncs still getting this error... any solutiion yet??
been searching on internet for 3 days
I followed official Google`s tutorial to build my own AOSP and succeeded in all steps: I have "Pure AOSP version" running on nexus emulator.
The story is I have some rare device came with some Android version full of pre-installed app's obviously I don't want... So I want to port Pure AOSP to my device - Simple as that, without any improvements or new features (So for example I don`t want to know how to build CM git repo).
Is it working just add to my local above master branch correct files into /device/vendor/model and then under cwd of master branch execute $ . build/envsetup.sh ?
If so, what are the files and their content I need to put under /device/vendor/model ? I found a lot of guides how to pull already existing tree of CM or something else, and looking on some git repo's of several devices, I tried to figure out the minimum complete set of files & their content but I didn't find correlation. I think there must be the minimum complete set and there is programming reason for the existence of each file. And what I saw in existed git repo`s was this set + custom extras each developer added by his own reasons.
Aftermath How do I determine the Build name & Buildtype to exucte $ lunch <Build name>-<Buildtype > ?
How to integrate $ make otapackage in order to build the familiar one zip file to load via recovery like CWM?
Thanks,
Hello all,
I've been a member here for a while now, mostly consuming until this moment, but after buying a Galaxy Tab A 9.5 decided it was time to to some contributing (there isn't a working port of anything for it as far as I'm aware). So with some work of my own and major work and help from Nick Verse there is now a working current version building (and booting and functioning fully) of TWRP. For more on that, see the topic Nick made on that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/recovery-samsung-galaxy-tab-9-7-t3355465
Sources and files are at https://github.com/cyanonoob, and if necessary I can provide my local manifest, which includes these and TWRP.
As for building CM: after I setup the build environment, make clean and clobber (in case of previous (mis)builds), I do croot and then lunch cm_gt510wifi-userdebug && mka bacon. As far as I know that is what I'm supposed to do, and then there comes the journey of sorting through building errors, which is where I am now.
I'm currently stuck on this one (and couldn't find a way out), so I am hoping someone here can shine a light on it:
Code:
make: *** No rule to make target `/home/geert/android/system/out/target/common/obj/APPS/org.cyanogenmod.platform-res_intermediates/src/R.stamp', needed by `/home/geert/android/system/out/target/common/obj/APPS/AntHalService_intermediates/src/R.stamp'. Stop.

Any Progress in porting cm tho gt510?
Did you manage to fix that error ???
How ??
Thanks in advance
Best Regards
Edit : to anyone who face that error....it is wrong build environment configuration....CM-12.1 require Open JDK 7 to build so you have to install Ubuntu 14.04 to compile it as Open JDK 7 got replaced with Open JDK 8 in Ubuntu 16.04....hope that helps
Best Regards
