I've been digging through the Vibrant forums for a while now, and I would like to try my hand at building the Froyo release. I downloaded the source and can compile the kernel just fine, but the platform part I am in the dark. Could someone help me with how to build the platform part? Once I get that done, I'll dig around to see how to convert it over to a flashable zip. Thanks in advance.

Hey. I myself learning to build my own custom rom too!

The platform source has not been released (and never will be). Only kernel source is required to be released.

In the source package there is a platform tar file. Do I download the AOSP code and overwrite those folders with what was in the platform tar from Samsung? Then build like AOSP?
go into android developement section here on xda or Ask some of developers here, if u ask nicely i think they might help u.
I am trying to build GB aosp from source on ubuntu for my phone samsung conquer 4G. I already have the source and in it there is a platform and in the text for it it says to put those files in the folders in the source than build. I am wondering if I would only replace files and not put in new ones? Or if I would even do this. If I shouldnt, how would I even port after its built and does anyone know what poison I should choose? Thanks a bunch
Any reason why GB? ICS or JB would be better wouldn't it? I'm not the best person to try to answer your question, but you will have to supply a little more info, I will help if I can.

Thanks, i am building gb because my phone does not have any official roms like cm,aosp,etc. I am the only person with the device that is capable of building from source i have already built a kernel. Also i am doing gb because my phones version is 2.3.6 and it should be easier to port than ics or jb. If you need any more info i will be glad to give you it.

Could use some clarification
When you refer to the source are you talking aosp? Or your device source?
If your referring to the device source that goes in working/device/manufacturer/devicename/
Could you provide a screenshot of the device source? Wanna make sure it looks like a proper device tree
As for poison...you just add your device to the lunch menu and build it...create a file in your device tree called vendorsetup.sh (just right click and go to create new document and name it that) then open it with a text editor (gedit) and type this and save it :
Code:
add_lunch_combo full_devicename-eng
(replace "devicename" with your device
Then in the root of your working folder type
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch
Choose your device then type
Code:
make otapackage
or to fully utilize your CPU
Code:
make -j# otapackage
replacing "#" with the number of CPU cores your computer has plus 1 or 2...so for dual core I usually do male -j4 otapackage

When i mean the source I meant my phones. It has two zips, kernel and platform. It has txt files on how to build the kernel and the update. And thanks man. The screen is attatched. The folders are build, extension, external, libcore, and vendor.
i was afraid of that...doesnt look like a device tree...and unfortunatly i have no expiernece creating a device tree from scratch/from manufacturer source...
anyways heres an example of two device tree i use...

Thats why it says in a txt to replace files in the aosp source with the ones in the folder.

AOSP 4.2
xt910
One epic fail in vendor name
No ICS precompiled files, no JB 4.1 precompiled files.. no custom kernels...
the only pure Google sources (and SGX drivers of course)
Do all the features work in this build?
hmmm...I can't believe that one guy makes 4.2 run on Razr without any help, just two days after source was released.
Or did you ported this rom to the Razr? Where is an real proof and why that less information? Please make it clear! And if you like to work together with us, contact me.
btw i got it runned in 5 hour after manifest comes.
And no, this is NOT fully worked fw. But had ui worked as well as many basic subsystems

Well if this is for real, first thanks.
Second if you dont have too much time , you should set up a git and share your work i m sure you ll get help.
And could you show us quick settings from status bar ?

I didn't say I have problem with this. On all 4.1 ROMs is screen shot and rotation bug, picture is downscaled, on 4.2 is OK. Nice job dude
great work, get in contact with other developers so u can hopefully continue development for xt910:victory:

or maybe setup a new one. Pure AOSP + your patches.
My project here is about making a spyder ROM with zero dependent on 3rd-party git.
- Upstream source is either AOSP or CyanogenMod.
- Overlay git for framework changes
- CM style device tree. Prebuilts binaries is pull directly via adb / image file (system.img)
Thanks for the screenshots mate, and i apologize for thinking it was a fake. (you know we've been sceptical over here )
Anyway, i think you should team up with whirleyes, sharing work will make more dev to help you i think.
I'm really interested to know what you did you make pure aosp booting on xt910.
Ok, guys here's the link of the ParanoidAndroid ROM i have been trying to port from One V. I have the permission from 1ceb0x.
LINK: http://d-h.st/Rkj
Gapps: http://d-h.st/ul6
Thanks to 1ceb0x, for giving me permission to use his ROM, and Lloir for his CM9 base...
How to flash:
1. take a nandroid backup.
2. wipe cache and data
3. go to fastboot mode and connect your phone to pc
4. place system.img in the same directory as fastboot
5.open command line (terminal) and go to your fastboot directory
6. type fastboot flash system system.img
7. reboot
We really need stable 4.1 AOSP for me to continue working on this. Waiting.
Changelog
Code:
0.1-----Initial build
0.2-----Used Lloir's vendor and device trees, tweaked build.prop, removed hTC crap
0.3-----Rebased, now using Lloir's CM9. Also, link is now on Dev-Host.
0.4-----Fixed updater-script.
0.5-----Now ROM packed in system.img

Cool! , just one problem dude you used the HTC Desire X Sense 1.18 as a base which is impossible since you need AOSP, AOKP, CM10 or any other Jellybean ROM for the Desire X as a base for this to boot , or am I wrong? but anyway testing

Ok, don't know what I did wrong, it's "adb logcat >logcat.txt" when you reboot out of recovery after flashing, right ?
edit: Ok, here's what I did second time : full wipe, flash the rom and google apps, then opened my platform-tools folder and typed "adb logcat -v long >logcat.txt" which gave me this : https://www.dropbox.com/s/gszb1ked7e8yjky/logcat.txt

Um, I'm not sure if I'll be able to, I've been trying to get an angle on how all this stuff works and I get the basics but when I look at github, it's like Chinese to me (or Taiwanese, since its HTC). I've looked at countless guides to port CM9, set up VMWare and Ubuntu 10 but it's a steep learning curve. Last month I maxed out our bandwidth (100 gig) trying to set up a local mirror for the source, which kind of defeated the purpose :laugh:

Yasir, why not make a joint thread by anyone here that wants to participate in getting a CM9 to the DX ?
"Project DX" or something, hopefully there's as many people showing up to the party as in Project X (the movie) lol
when you do logcats let it run for about 5minutes -.- also for status 7 just do a recovery log (go to report error under advanced) and put it here i'll check back later
Im trying using latest cm10.1 source to compile the latest cm10.1 for my old phone...i use this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1971645 and an old dev device tree that haves some bugs but at least it compiled for him properly...
First of all when i type

and it stops completly...i sync the repo again...nothing....i delete the out folder and try again...nothing...im not very experianced with developing..this is my 1st test complety rom compile...anyone can help thanks!!

That seems to make it through my errors...i dont know the difference between this and brunch...but it seems it work....
As you can think i dont have enought knowlage over coding and programming...i study only about the hardware...i wanna ask something if you don't mind...where the compile procedure find the kernel (boot.img) i dont see the kernel source inside my device tree...only a raw file called kernel!!!

About the kernel so maybe the rom isn't bootable after this...maybe i have to replace it with a working 4.2.2 boot.img after this!!!
