Need help with 1st compile from AOSP for SGH-I777!

Okay so I'm attempting to compile a rom from the android source but there is a few things I'm confused about. Such as where to get the proprietary binaries for SGH-I777. If you have any experiance with compiling from AOSP and could give me a hand on my first compile let me know. Thanks

Creating an AOSP ROM

Hey guys!
My device (the HTC One X for AT&T) currently has a CM9 and AOKP port. I really wanted to get started with developing though. I wanted to create a full AOSP ROM (directly from Google) just to learn the process and get my hands dirty with ROM development (I've already done quite a few mod packs and a kernel).
We have an open sourced CM9 device tree available. I've tried using that device tree for building the AOSP ROM but of course, it has errors because the AOSP source isn't CM9...
So what I'm asking is how can I use this CM9 device tree with a pure AOSP ROM? Like, how exactly do I edit the CM9 device tree so that it creates an AOSP ROM? I'm aware its no easy task, but if someone could point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated. I'm a noob when it comes to ROM development, I've never made one before haha I have compiled ROMs before, I maintain the AOKP nightlies for the HP Touchpad.
If someone could help me make this device tree work it would be awesome. Thanks!
P.S. Here is the tree in case someone wanted to look at it: https://github.com/vmagro/android_device_htc_evita
Delete cm.mk
Edit vendorsetup.sh (remove "cm_").
That is all you need to do, I believe.
Like you know, sync the AOSP source, include your device folder amd build.

I found this thread and this is exactly what I'm doing. Would you be interested in answering my questions in exchange for a nice donation? I haven't had much luck getting help and being a single parent of three toddlers I really need to maximize my free time to work on this.
You also would have to delete any offending overlays from CM that are present within your device repo. As you compile you may run into errors which you could work through.

Removing overlays doesnt work here. Have many issues regarding the kernel.

Good luck

[Q] Questions about updating ROM from source

Hi guys, i'm new to Android development. I built Paranoid Android from source for TF101. The ROM was nice and i'm happy with my ROM. So now i'm so curious about what developers do regarding building a ROM and updating it.
1. If the ROM had bugs/problems, how can i analyze it and find the root cause of the bug?
2. How can i fix the bug? Do i need to edit a file in the ROM?
3. Every ROM that had updated build from source has an changelog, how can i know what is the changelog?
I'm sorry if the questions are quite noobish. I'm new with it. Thanks

How to compile a CM rom for unsupported devices?

Hi
I'm quite new to android so be gentle.
I,ve been trying to compile a CM ROM for my device Huawei g300 (u8815) and I found two Devs sources, Dazzozo and Kra1o5. They have their repos in github and its easy to download them and compile a CM Rom.
BUT, what i want to do is to create my own repos. I mean, i want to make a CM ROM just from source and from a Stock Rom without using any devs sources.
I cant find any guide.. could you help me to build a port of CM to a unsupported device?
Thanks in advance.

[Q] How to build CM11 for a legacy device?

I have a LG P350 which development has stopped but i want to keep it updated, i have my computer ready for building, also i have kernel sources, Cyanogenmod 11 and 10.1 sources too, (I don't know exactly if 10.1 sources could help) and i know that i need to apply patches to work on Armv6 but i don't know how to apply them to the source code, also i don't know if i would just need the pure source code to build or i need to do more modifications to it and finally, i don't know if the rom would work with 2.36 kernel which it's the most stable one for this device, i'm very new in this but i know that i can keep update my little phone, thank you all in advance for help.

Hello, looking at your situation here is what I can conclude. First off you will need to change things for building on ARMv6 architecture, check this out for example. But your biggest problem will be that Android 4.0+ uses Linux kernel version 3.0+, and with the 2.36 kernel you have a lot of things will be broken and need fixing. That being said if your up for the challenge for it cause that's what were all about .

Well, i got this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2144790 that is the most similar phone talking about hardware, it has 3.0 kernel working well so i thought i could port it, i found this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15961306/porting-kernel-from-another-device so i think i would have less problems due hardware similarities (Look here http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=3516&idPhone2=3735 ) so, if i have cm11 pure sources, i add this kernel sources and some patches i would have it booting? Sorry for this very dumb question but, i didn't get at all about the armv6 part, how to apply patches, which i would need and all that, i really want to learn about this so thank you for this answer and the next ones :good:

The best way to start is use the ARMv6 branch of Cyanogenmod 11, replace the CM 10.1 in the previous linked build guide with cm-11.0 ("repo init -u git://github.com/androidarmv6/android.git -b cm-11.0"), and then to direct the build to use your kernel take a look at this guide on integrated kernel building with Cyanogenmod.
