[Q] AOSP compilation - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been trying to compile from source for Nexus S (crespo) on an Ubuntu 10.04 machine, following the guide from the Android Open Source Project, and I'm having lots of errors even though in the end I get my otapackage.zip file. Searching the web I've found out that this might be caused by extracting those proprietary drivers like it is said in the AOSP guide.
Can anybody tell me how should I get those drivers extracted/installed/whatever corectly? Many thanks!

Anyone building a rom from source on a Windows machine?

I've been wanting to start building from source so I could actually try to contribute some development time to a rom.
I've seen some of the build from source threads and even tried to use the wiki from one ROM's page. but the latest version of Ubuntu doesn't want to even get the Android SDK installed let alone get the latest code. So I was thinking that I would try to get this up and running on one of my windows boxes and was wondering if anyone else is building from a Windows machine.
If so is there a good resource or tutorial for getting started.

Even if its specified for Ubuntu, it technically should work on any Linux variants.

[Q] Porting CWM to HS-U800

Hi guys.
I'm trying to port Clockwork mod to my device, but all the tutorials i've seen online uses cyanogen source that is already configured for their devices and just compiles it, which isn't porting per se.
I'm having trouble syncing the Cyanogen source, not sure what i'm doing wrong.
I have the android source and sdk tools on ubuntu 14.04.
