Hey Guys, I want to do a nice test to the Android OS. I would like to flash my rooted Android device with my own android OS version. I am doing so because I want to change some system app and kernel framework to act differently.
So I know I can download the source code with git, but can I open it with Eclipse? how do I compile it, and the most important question, how do I flash it back (with the changes) to the device?
I need to do it on Windows...I know it suppose to run on Mac\Linux, any free solution?
Thanks M
I'm NOT EXPERT, I'm ONLY TRING TO HELP and SORRY IF I MADE SOME MISTAKES!
I have some ideas for porting android 3.2 to Folio 100 but I can't do all myself - I need some help.
My first idea is:
To add changes made in android 3.2 system(framework, apps etc.) to our Honeycomb from SDK or Xoom and decompile zlmage inside HC kernel(if that tool existe or find it's kernel source, add changes from android 3.2 kernel and recompile it).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. This idea is really hard to realise because kernel(I don't think that tool existe) but it's convinient(we'll finish it in short period with little work).
2. For this idea first we need to add changes from android 3.1 and after that from android 3.2.
3. I NEED YOUR HELP to find WHAT ARE CHANGES and TO DOWNLOAD
THEM for adding them to OUR build(First android 3.1 changes and after android 3.2).
For system that isn't problem but for kernel it is. The most detiled list of changes can
be find at Android SDK site but I think that we can't download them.
4. I think that mblaster know a lot of kernels and compiling it won't be problem for him.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My second idea is similar to first one:
To add changes made in android 3.2 system(framework, apps etc.) to our Honeycomb from SDK or Xoom and compile android 3.2 tegra kernel from
Android Git or from other sources.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. I think that this idea is the best if mblaster help us or some one else that know a lot
of kernels.
2. Google won't relise full source of android 3.2 before pushing up android 4.0 aka
Ice Cream Sandwich to shops.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I can port system itself(it will be faster if someone make a list of changes) but kernel is
a problem. I don't know much about kernels and because it I post first idea.
If you have new ideas or you don't agree with me or want to help me, please, post here!
EDIT: Android 3.2 might work with our HC kernel.

nice idea..
if u write drivers and kernel change, some other developer can use your work alot.
anyone writing all the drivers for folio will make toshiba happy, as they did not do it..
so if you make all this happen and write the drivers , i am sure folio will once again be a good tablet.
the development is something that takes companies 3-6 months to do, so you will be back in december 2011 or maybe early 2012 with your release?
Can someone compile Tegra 3.2 kernel from here? I tried but without success. I'm porting system now.
I tried to unyaffs FolioComb 3xx v2.0 image bu I got 'Segmentation fault'???
I succefully unyaffsed Android 3.1 and 3.1 SDK images.
I'll try to backup it from my tablet(I have FolioComb on it)
Nice to see someone trying to update folio 100, thanks to you and people in CM7 thead.
I don´t know about compiling so I cant help. But i keep an eye in this post.
Do you know anything about system?
EDIT:Nothing
Hi
I'm looking for a little help in regards to compiling my own kernel , i have all the tools like make etc installed on my ubuntu machine with the latest update2 from samsung but i'm stuck on how to install the toolchain and setting the paths etc i have both the tar.bz2 and the .bin version , i know you can also use the prebuilt in android source but as my broadband is sooooo slow (only 1mb) its a no go to download (only looking @ kernel development)
If any dev or any member with the know how would like to give me a shove in the right direction i would be much appreciated

I'm quite new there (its actually my first post), but you could consider those:
eheh, I cannot even post an outside link... so you'll have to rebuld them yourself
- install SDK r13: developer.android.com /sdk /installing.html (I used SDK Platform Android 2.3.3, API 10, revivion 2, as it is the same as in 2.3.4 I am running)
(could be a good idea to run as superuser 'sudo ./android')
- install NDK r6b: developer.android.com /sdk /ndk /index.html[/url]
Could read android.serverbox.ch /?p=285
Unless you get a good recipe from someone else, you could start with that.
Hi, this is my first post on xda, but i was reading it about 4 years and now i have unusuall question:
I have phone - samsung callisto (GT-I5510) with cyanogenmod 10.2 rom (android 4.3.1), and kernel sources are available for it, but only below 2.6.35.7 since phone is ancient. This is "latest" and probably "fastest" android phone with qwerty keyboard (not including this unrootable new blackberrys), so i think that it would be nice idea to deploy lightweight kali linux nethunter installation for hacking purpouses. I had some problems with oficial installer, and i had to modify it to allow install on device with such small /system partition, but the problem is that chrooting to Kali Roling is not working, becouse minimal kernel version needed is 3.2.*.*
Question is: Can i somehow "update" kernel sources of this device, so i can build 3.2.*.* kernel? I have much free time and even more determination to do this.
I would like to develop a custom ROM for my device. I read some guides and obtained some basic knowledge, but still don't know how to start. So I would like to ask some questions to test my knowledge and expand them.
My device: Wiko View
My Android version (actually installed): 7.1.2 almost pure Android (just some third-party apps)
Desired Android version: AOSP 9.0 (maybe?)
So as far as I know I need these things:
AOSP Source Code (9.0)
Kernel
Vendor (tree or blobs?)
Device tree
So for the AOSP: I can get it from the repo hosted by Google. How should it look once downloaded?
For the kernel: should I use that from my actual ROM, or the most recent one? And how to include it in my ROM before compiling?
For the Vendor: As far as I read, with project treble I shouldn't edit this. But since I'm not developing a treble ROM, I'm in troubles, right? In older ROMs (before Oreo and Treble), they're stored in /system/vendor. Is just that folder or are there more? Do I need to update something? Where do I need to put this folder?
For the device tree: I read some guides that explains how to extract it from ROM (only from 5.0 and up, since mine is 7.1 no problems, I hope). Is this right or are there other ways? Or do I need to write it myself?
I'm going to thanks anyone in advance. I know there are plenty of questions, but I hope this thread will be a place for begginer (like me) to know more about compiling from source a ROM. Have a great day!
