AOSP compiling guide? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was wondering if there's a guide available on how to compile AOSP for HTC One (m7).. I want to compile AOSP 4.4 for it and I have some experience but without proper files and right steps, it's not possible to do it.

Wrong section really needs to be in q&a

[DEV] I need a ramdisk/kernel dev... please?? :)

Hi, this is a quick shout-out to a kernel dev that wouldn't mind helping me out...
It was 50/50 for this section or Q&A so don't give me grief, the mods will move it if it's absolutely necessary.
I need some assistance modifying a Nexus kernel ramdisk and I just don't have the tools/skills necessary at the moment. I (think I) know what needs to be changed and it's minor, I just can't pull the source back together and test it quickly/properly.
If you're willing to help, yell out, I (think I) have the edits necessary so hopefully it shouldn't be too painful...
Please?
i am here, what do you need?
can we talk on gtalk ?

[REF][11.05.12]New-Existing Thread TITLE/TAG Rules[new banner available]

I am no moderator but just want to share/implement this idea.
The following tags/titles are needed to be implemented in DEVELOPMENT area .
1.Thread rules for Rom developers
[ROM][ANDROID Ver.][DATE] <NAME OF ROM>[Version of your ROM]
•[ROM] indicating a ROM related thread
•[Android ver] Android version name ex: ICS or GB
•[DATE] must be in the [day.month.year] form. Example: [06.05.12]
•<NAME OF ROM> name of your rom
•[Version] is the version of YOUR ROM (not the android version)
ex : [ROM][ICS][6.5.2011]MIUI V4!| Working Camera & NEW FIXES ![v11.06]
NOTE: DO NOT MENTION NEO/NEO V IN THE TITLE cause we got separate sections for them , if the OP needs he can mention it in the first post of his thread .

2.Thread rules for Kernel developers
[KERNEL][ANDROID Ver.][DATE] <NAME OF YOUR KERNEL>[Version of your KERNEL]
•[KERNEL] indicating a KERNEL related thread

•[DATE] must be in the [day.month.year] form. Example: [06.05.12]

4.The people new to XDA community & Noobs
Unlike the Developers & other people there is only ONE simple rule for you guys to follow ,DO NOT POST/START A THREAD JUST TO ASK YOUR QUESTION IN THE DEVELOPMENT FORUM , Use the GENERAL SECTION to post your questions
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
NOTE : All the above tags/titles should be in capital letters only
If I've missed any let me know ill add it asap
If you have any questions about this new naming scheme, or concerns or questions in general, please do not hesitate to PM me or ask me in this thread.
This is all a work in progress, and if things need to be changed, we will change them as needed. Please bear with me as I try to sort this all out for the good of the forum.
This worked out well in other fourms so i request YOU the developers , modders , themers , & noobs to accept this proposal and help us in keeping the fourm organised and simple
THANK YOU EVERYONE
IN-THREAD Idea !!!
Before you read this idea i want to make sure you know that all the extra work for implementing this will be done by me . all you do is just paste it . Hope you like the idea
Currently this will take time to implement cause of my SEM Exams till may 15 , will start working asap after my exams start.
1. Screen-shots
All the screen-shots provided by the ROM developer will be modified to be simple and fast loading.
Example :
All the processing & editing will be done by me , so that the dev's feel no burden because of this idea.
Kernel developers your benchmark scores will also be processed this way .
Just wanted to implement this so that all NEO V rom threads are simple and attractive (minimalistic )
Image Details
TYPE : .PNG
DIMEN'S: 1024 x 342 pix
Compressed for faster loading , but will see that quality will not be compromised mostly.
2.Thread Title
If you feel the above idea to be too simple then heres something to make your thread more attractive
I will provide ROM/KERNEL related threads with a TITLE image which represents their ROM/KERNEL . 2-3 Best features which you think will highlight youur ROM/Kernel will also be shown in that IMAGE .
And Firstly the most active Kernel's/Rom's will get the TITLE IMAGES
EX: ICS kernels / ICS ROMS First .
finally i got one to show u as a example
1)
2)
seems like xda is compressing the images (image 1) when i upload it , so i am using an alternative DEV-HOST file sharing site to provide you with best quality images as in image 2
More services coming soon

Comments , suggestions are welcome

You forgot themes,here's a suggestion for themes

•[For which ROM] For which type of rom(like stock or aokp or cm or miui)
•<NAME OF THEME> name of your Theme
•[Version] Latest version of the theme
•[DATE] Last updated day,must be in the [day.month.year] form. Example: [06.05.12]

Indeed a good idea Vimjam
go ahead with this, but if the people learn how to search then they dont have to start a new thread in general, they can ask thier questions in General Chat at the general topic, or they can look in the sticky thread of mine, because i must report 2 a 3 times a day to close a thread to another thread, of double post or its already posted, i hope you understand me, if everyone post my general chat or sticky in thier sig (i mean recognized peeps like vimjam etc) we come a lot further and then everyone knows that
I really appriciate that.
but again mate... GOOD JOB
Edit: What about Contributors, any good ideas for us ??

Edit: What about Contributors, any good ideas for us ??

Status 6 Error with flashing ROM cooked with dsixda's Rom Kitchen

Hey there,
I've just been getting into ROM development and have a Sprint Samsung GNEX (toroplus) and a Google Nexus 7 (grouper). I made an AOSP build of 4.1.1 for my N7 and was using dsixda's ROM Kitchen to add root functionality, busybox, and to change the name of the ROM. I keep getting a "Status 6" error when trying to flash the ROM after building it.
I looked in the FAQ section of the thread and saw that it had to do with incorrect formatting due to using the wrong text editor, but the thing is that I haven't touched Windows while building this, it's all been on Linux.
So after flashing it, I used the "Report Error" function and check the recovery log, looks like there are some syntax errors. Could anyone help me out?
Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Of course, the first thread I make has a typo in the Title. Wow. Can a moderator fix the typo in the title? Thanks!
Just click on edit then advanced and edit the title.
Personally I would suggest just building with those features from source.

So don't use dsixda's kitchen at all? And sorry, how do you compile from source with root functionality and busybox?
Anybody? I'm a little new to this stuff and am looking for some help, I was hoping this was the right place...

You are using an aosp rom. There shouldn't be any reason you need the android kitchen. Go to github.com/cyanogenmod/android_build read the commit history. Should give you some insight with building a better busy box and root. Look up the system su from cyanogenmod ect ect.

Help with Stock Camera development \ modification

Hi,
I had the G2 before and the user xdabbeb created a nice modified version of the stock camera.
I'm interested to know how would you approach it from a developer point of view?
I have a G5..but how do you get the stock camera code?
I want to enable 60fps and control \ disable NR for example..
So.. how do you approach it?
Does anyone know a helpful thread about it?
Thanks,
Gal Root
You've posted in the wrong section.
You need to edit system/etc/media_profile.xml
It isn't hard to edit the file. You just need to know which lines to edit.
EDIT: There are lots of threads about it, here is one for example http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2778570

Thank you my friend!:good:
BTW, why is it the wrong section? I think it counts as G5 "Other Development", no?

Would guess that it needs to be in Q&A until you start dev?
