Did you try to sync cm-10.2 sources? Could you show us your manifest.xml and your local_manifest.xml?
If I were you I would try to do the repo init again and try syncing, maybe there was an error at the first repo init

That's no problem of course, we all had to start from a little knowledge and we've been learning much
You should check this tutorial for a full guide, but maybe you won't get a 100% working compilation because when cyanogenmod implements new functions in cm, there can be some errors while compiling you have to fix

[Q] Error while building jb aosp

I have been trying for 2 days now to figure out how to fix this error, but I'm stumped.
After choosing my device in the 'lunch' menu, I receive this:
Build/core/config.mk:145:***no config file found for TARGET_DEVICE. Stop.
I have seen this error here and there while searching, but no one seems to have an answer on how to fix it. I have the vendorsetup file (I say that because that's the only info I get from people is 'make a file named vendorsetup.mk and add this to it'). I have synced sbrissens fascinate and aries-common repo files, and no matter what I do, it fetches the same error.
Any help would b much appreciated. I'm at my wits end here. This is driving me nuts! (Not that i get the error, but that I can't seem to find a fix ANYWHERE)

Hi
I assume you're adding extra devices into the aosp lunch menu. All the info for finding out what's wrong is in the error message; Have you had a look at line 145 in build/core/config.mk? On my JB AOSP tree it's a check for BoardConfig.mk. At a guess I would say you are missing a BoardConfig.mk, It'd be useful if you could link to the device repo you are using
Hope that Helps

Yes I added a device. And yes that's what mine is checking for too. That's why this is so confusing. I HAVE a boardconfig.mk file. It just won't seem to find it....
Here's the repo I used. Its sbrissens. It has some common files with other carrier variants, so I got the aries-common files from his repo, and the fascinatemtd files too:
https://github.com/sbrissen/android_device_samsung_fascinatemtd
That's JUST his fascinatemtd files. I have downloaded the jb branch of the aries-common files too. If u want a look at those, they're on his repo page too.
Thanks for getting back to me. I can't seem to get anyone to help. My posts get buried beneath a bunch of others' that by the time the op for the guide I'm using gets online to help out, my post is buried and most of the time isn't seen.

Not a problem, It took me a while to get a build that would boot on a device, it's a case of reading, then reading some more, the android building google group is a useful resource.
I've just clone the repo you linked to and successfully "lunched" it, looks like there's some hardcoded paths in there.
so you'll want to use device/samsung/fascinatemtd as the path for the device files.... It still doesn't build as it needs some vendor specific files etc, but that's your adventure.
Whenever you run into build problems the *.mk files tell all. It might be useful to read up on what it takes to add a new device as that will give you an insight into how the build system "glues" together.
Good Luck

So could my problem b that I downloaded the files from his repo as a .zip, instead of cloning it with terminal? Cuz if that doesn't do it, I don't know why it won't lunch for me. I pulled them as a zip, unzipped it and placed it in device/samsung/ fascinatemtd. Should I try it with the terminal instead?

Shouldn't really make any difference unless your permissions are at fault, I tend to live in a bash shell anyway so from your aosp tree something like this might do the trick
Code:
cd device/samsung
git clone https://github.com/sbrissen/android_device_samsung_fascinatemtd.git fascinatemtd
cd ../..
source build/envsetup.sh
lunch full_fascinatemtd-userdebug
If your still having problems though I would first make sure you can lunch one of the standard AOSP options and also make sure your using bash as I think the build system has some bashism in it.

You've got me buddy, not a clue what you've done I'd be tempted to write that one off as a bad job and start again..... I wouldn't worry about syncing the fascinate repo's at first just make sure you can get a clean AOSP build..... Just for reference Google's Guide to Building the AOSP although your probably already following that.
It' is very much one step at a time with this until you get an idea of what lives where and how it all fits. I must admit it did take me a good couple of go's before I got it right myself, Thank <insert deity here> for unlimted bandwidth.

Yeah, but the LAST thing I wanna do is resync the repo. That takes SO damned long. That's all I can do tho isn't it? If I wanna start over? Delete the source, and re sync it?

Unless you want to get deep inside the animals, so to speak, but I think at this stage you're probably best off starting again otherwise you may "waste" a good couple of hours chasing errors, you'll probably learn a thing or two along the way it all depends how you look at it really, every cloud etc...... I suppose you could just try deleting your WORKING_DIRECTORY/device directory and just resync that to begin with. see if that cures what ale's ya', I find repo sync -j16 speeds things up a little as well
No need to resync the repo at all. All your changes are topical. You can run a "repo forall -c "git reset HARD"".
You can also do something else. Go into your repo path folder. Hit control h to show hidden files. Ctrl a selects them all then unselect the .repo folder by holding Ctrl while clicking on it. Delete all the folders and open your terminal. Do a repo sync. Only this time you are not downloading 7 gigs of stuff. Everything already exists in that .repo folder. Removing all and resyncing just refreshes everything.

That's kinda funny u just posted that, cuz I was just looking at your cm compiler thread, and saw the link to the compile jb on Ubuntu thread, where u explained how to do that.
I just left this thread to go back to ur cm compiler thread to get that link and bring it back here and post it.

You could use a download manager like DAM. this will speed up the download and rescue it if it fails.

To OP: u cant speed up tho, it depends on ur connection and my speed is slow, too. All u should do is use -f flag to force the sync to continue over broken things: for example u can use "repo sync -f -j16" or so. It will be slow and long at ur first sync and first rom source. For second source (that u may work w multiple roms later) you can use the flag --reference=~/path/to/your/first/source if they r the same android version like slimkat and beanstalk 4.4 and carbon 4.4 or so in order to save u tons of space and time.
And one more thing, u r posting in wrong section, should go to Android general question and answer tho. Will report this later that Mods can move it to the right section.

can I use this "-f" flag with the command

If yes then please help me...! also tell is it necessary to run these commands as root user?

You just need it to initialize the repo. If you are going to sync it, you can stop it in every moment without breaking anything. You will just lost the progress of your currently synced project.

[Q] Build CyanogenMod 12.1 (Copy proprietary vendor files)

Hey. I am following modpunk tread on CM 12.1 build for Samsung Galaxy Alpha.
I have done almost all the steps in the README.
Now I wonder how I copy proprietary vendor files.
The README only tell me to run "./extract-files.sh", cant find where this hidden file is located.
Here is the steps in the README;

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Build_for_klte Just one as an example, I'm using klte.
The guide states you can find it under
SOURCECODEFOLDER/device/Samsung/CODENAME
Where SOURCECODEFOLDER is the folder where you downloaded the cyanogenmod source code (repo sync) and CODENAME is the code name for your device.
For Samsung devices, if you are getting any errors related to the building of some system applications like "TimeService.apk", I'd suggest you to use the files hoted at " TheMuppets" github repository.
I have done the "repo sync". After this big download I am going to directory:
"cyanogenmod/system/device/"
In this directory I only have these folders:
Common, Generic, Google, Qcom and Sample

Can you put the link of the guide you are trying to follow? It seems like you are missing the step "breakfast", probably because there's no official build for your device. You are trying to port cyanogenmod, right?

Not a definitive answer, but it looks like something has gone wrong with your syncing. As you can see from the readme, the manifest should include "projects/android/android_device_samsung_slte.git" and
"projects/android/android_kernel_samsung_slte.git". By looking at the file tree of the _device_ one, there is actually a file called "extract-files.sh". Use an utility like "locate" or a search bar in your desktop manager to see if you actually have this file, as the repo sync should have cloned the git repository!

50? You sure? Have you tried using the -c option while syncing? My CM 12.1 source code is working and it's "merely" 25 GBs or less.
Anyway, if you are missing *every* file from that git repo, you definetely should. Make also sure the manifest file that the readme tells you to create includes everything as shown! Check first if you are missing only some files... At the very least, you might just download the missing extract-files from that git repo.
