Hi
I wanted to create an android rom for my xperia sola, for now I am not sure how to setup env and create rom.
So any help or link to some tutorials will be useful.
Since I am using Linux it'd be great if you can suggest me to create dev environment for the same and getting started with it.
A good friend of mine at Xda pointed to some resource which I'll go through soon. But in the meantime any additional help will be great.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Regards

Hello everyone,
I am a newbie here, I want to compile Cyanogenmod from source and I learned CyanogenMod wiki.
Unfortunately I didn't find my device, ZTE v889d. I have downloaded the Cyanogenmod source, the wiki tells
cd ~/android/system/device/manufacturer/device-name/
./extract-files.sh

However I didn't see device/zte/v889d, so I don't know what to do. I searched the github, there's no such file either.
Is there any guide for me to do this? Thanks in advance.

You have to find a device tree for your device...or make one
I can't help with making one as I've never made a device tree...
But for finding one just Google ZTE v889d github...if someone has made one it should pop up...if you can't find any...then your out of luck and will have to make your own..

I'm no pro either, but perhaps you could find a device that is close to your model that is cm supported and then look into its vendor tree on github. Doing this will allow you to see what you need to pull from your firmware to start a tree. Or if the devices are close enough you might even be able to barrow some of the supported devices pre existing tree.
Hope this helps a little

But if you download that desire v cm rom, decompile its kernel, get its ramdisk, rename the init.**.rc to protou and then repack with our device zImage, you get an almost booting cm9 kernel. I deleted my repos by mistake otherwise i would compile a cm9 build and flash this kernel to check boot.
@atis, do me a favour, compile with either 7227 or 7227a, just make a flashable zip, and try it with this kernel attached below,,,, just once,
Regards
or give me a cm9 zip which at least flashes properly, and i'll test the rest myself.
Regards
Is there any news about a CM9 build? Were you hell_lock able to create a working kernel?
I'm not asking for a ETA, just asking if anything changed. Otherwise, my apologies if I bothered any of you.
Thank you very much

has anyone looked at lge p700??? im attempting a device tree structure from it. Its my final and will be most elaborate attempt to boot cm9. Then i'll officially give up.
@ hell_lock & atis112, can u upload your in progress work(device tree) on git?? just so i can get some ideas.

Well yes I was successful in making the kernel boot. It still has stock features so I didn't release it yet. Btw my sources are there on github.
I will release my kernel on 22nd most probably . Right now I am having my exams

i am the only one unofficial maintener for that device... and i couldn't find any working answer yet.
Moved to appropriate forum as a new thread. Hope this helps you get the answers you need.
So that others can help can you please explain what you are trying to build?
(AOSP, CM, AOKP, etc...)
Thanks and good luck!
OK, did some looking from where I moved this from and I see you're looking to build AOKP, correct?
Are you trying to do the initial bringup for this device?
Or do you know if any other AOSP projects support this device?
I'll look at your device tree but you're going to need a kernel (and/or source) and vendor tree as well.
If you don't have these it's not going to build.
Edit: Looks like your device tree is designed for CM at the moment.
Is CM building OK for this device?
Thanks!

I appreciate your commitment.but before compiling u should note that our device tree in github is incomplete.developers are trying hard to complete that tree.so think twice before compiling.first of all several developers failed to port clockworkmod 6.0.4.+ to this device.I'm not trying to discourage you..i'm trying to say not to make ur precious work go in vain.

Hello and welcome to the XDA forums ... First thing is you can't become a developer ASAP ... Since u r a newbie, I would suggest you to have a look at the android kitchen by SuperR ... You can develop your first working rom with least experience using this ..all the best :good:
Kitchen link http://forum.xda-developers.com/chef-central/android/kitchen-superrs-kitchen-t3202296

I have already used kitchen and I know how to cook rooms from it.
How to use android source to make ROMS
It's well complicated but i wanna learn it
If you can cook a 'room’ using a kitchen, then your next step would be reading and searching through XDA. Install Linux, find a tutorial on how to build a specific ROM like Slim, CM, or Omni, download the source code and build a ROM from scratch. Actually being a developer is a whole other story, for that, you'd need years of dedication and experience with the Android ecosystem.
Best of luck.
