(Guide) How to Compile CyanogenMod 7 for Cooper [spaceyway] - Galaxy Ace S5830 General

Hello Experienced Cooper users
today i shall guide you to compile ur own Cyanogenmod rom
ive adapted this guide to work for cooper
and removed some useless parts wich i self didnt used and still compiled succesfull rom
U MUST RUN A LINUX DISTRO
ok we shall begin now:
1. making the correct directory's
Code:
cd~
mkdir android
mkdir cyanogenmod7
those are the 2 main directorys i will use Note* remember each command is 1 line
Installing Java6 (JDK)
in terminal type / copy paste from here
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ferramroberto/java
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
Install Required dependencies/add-ons
32 bit Linux Mint 14
Code:
sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf libsdl-dev libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.6-dev build-essential zip curl libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev pngcrush schedtool
copy and paste it all in terminal
64 bit Linux Mint 14
Code:
sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf libsdl-dev libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.6-dev build-essential zip curl libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev valgrind lib32readline-gplv2-dev gcc-multilib g++-multilib libc6-dev-i386 lib32ncurses5-dev ia32-libs x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev lib32z-dev pngcrush schedtool
copy and paste it all in terminal
Synching the Source Code of CM7
Code:
cd ~
mkdir bin
paste/type those lines in terminal
now type/paste this in terminal and REBOOT SYSTEM
Code:
curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
after reboot u can use the Repo Commands
now cd to ur directory we created in the begin
first do
Code:
cd~
then do
Code:
cd android/cyanogenmod7
once done that initialize repo
paste/type this in terminal
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b gingerbread
Note: if you wanna have a smaller download and only download specific sources for Cooper try to sync my moddified and reduced repo this still is cm but will not sync all the extra useless files then sync
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/spacecaker/android_cooper.git -b gingerbread
and do
Code:
repo sync -j4
now u will need to wait
this will sync the approx 10/15 GB source codes
takes about 1/10 hours to sync depending on connection
now lets sync our device configs
once everything has been synched and still in the
Code:
cd android/cyanogenmod7
directory
type
Code:
cd device
mkdir samsung
cd samsung
now
type/paste
Code:
git clone https://github.com/vo-1/android_device_samsung_cooper cooper
once that is synched
do to go to the the root of Cyanogenmod7 directory
Code:
cd ..
cd ..
now we will get the vendor of our cooper device
do type/paste in terminal
Code:
cd vendor
mkdir samsung
cd samsung
and sync the cooper vendor
Code:
git clone https://github.com/vo-1/android_vendor_samsung_cooper cooper
now do
Code:
cd ..
and type
Code:
~/android/cyanogenmod7/vendor/cyanogen/get-rommanager
now lets build
this is how i personally build it on my way but takes more time
i will tell u first my way then original way
do type/paste in terminal
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh
Code:
brunch cooper
then it will compile it and make a zip file for you aswell wich is findable in out folder
Note it takes long time
or do
Code:
lunch cm_cooper-eng
make -j4 bacon
what did i skip ?
i personally skipped ADB and SDK because i run Linux in a Virtual machine
Hope you guys will enjoy this guide

From Gingerbread you need a 64-bit environment to compile succesfully Android. You can remove the part of guide about 32 bit

Nowhere it is said that you will need Linux. Great guide though. :good:
At the moment I am thinking about some people trying to get sudo to work on their Windows machines.
