Hi everyone, i'm trying to build my first rom. I followed the building guide from xda-university. I want to build AOSP lollipop from source(no cm) for Huawei G630. I searched a lot on the forum and google but i cannot find the proper information. I synced the AOSP repo. But i need help with the device tree. There is none available out there as there is no AOSP-based rom available for it. So i am supposed to create the device tree by myself right? How do i do that?(or maybe...is it to difficult to do for a beginner like me? ) Any help is really appreciated.
Thanks!!
Or at least could someome point me to a forum where i can get help?

But as i said, my device has no aosp rom available for it, hence I have to build aosp "from scrstch" (not based on another aosp rom). I can't find any information on how to do this.
Any idea on how to build an aosp rom for a new device?

I dont have any problem with CM. But I think that it is a little bit unstable. I don't know anything about android development, but at first I think that it works like windows or linux. You have OS and drivers and together it works well. Where is problem with build clean android rom + add drivers?

It's not exactly like you said. And for clean rom, its name is AOSP. And when our CM will be bugfree also an AOSP rom, or like you name it a clean rom, will be available.

great. So now I'm waiting for AOSP rom. Can I donate somebody for support in development?

I was sifting through some files on my player and I found a Slimbean build that's slightly newer than the one in the dev forum so I thought I'd post it here...
So here is Slimbean 4.2.2 build 8.1 for Player 5.0:
http://www.4shared.com/zip/24rAUJd-/Slim-422build81-UNOFFICIAL-201.html
Refer to http://slimroms.net/ for installation instructions and gapps..
It should work but, I built it back in August, and as far as I know it didn't have any issues beyond the normal 4.2.2 issues.
Also, if there is any interest, I could probably build a newer Slimbean. So if that's something that is wanted, post here...
Here's my vote
I would look forward to newer Slimbean Rom's, and would provide feedback about newer versions you may develop. I haven't tried the one you posted, but if it would be helpful to you, I surely will. Thanks for your efforts here !!

Nah, I just put it up in case anyone wanted it. If there is more interest in Slimbean, I'll do some builds but, if nobody wants it then I'm not going to bother.
i'd love to see new slimbean for 5.0.
I noticed that the 4.0 already has kitkat, should we expect to get kitkat to 5.0 shortly?

Have You Ever Thought About Making An MIUI Based On 4.2.2. Or Even 4.3?

I've looked into it a little and from what I can tell, making MIUI is very different then building android. It seems like it's kinda patched together using reverse engineered smali code.

I Honestly Can't, Due To Me Not Knowing Anything About Making Or Porting The ROM.

Lack of knowledge can be resolved by "reading", "learning", "comprehending", and "asking"
Lack of experience can be resolved by "trying","failing","retrying", and eventually "succeeding"
Lack of time can be resolved by "making time" or "taking time"
Just sayin'
Took a little doing but got a working slimbean 4.3 released here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47842886
Gapps question
Thanks so much for bringing Slimbean 4.3 to our device !! Slimbean is my daily driver, and it's great to see development for our device continue.
Apologies in advance for my ignorance: Which is the correct gapps category/file to use for this ROM and our device? Would it be i9100? or Crespo? or ??? I'm clueless...

Hi, I have a samsung Galaxy Tab 4 10.1 tablet but it has very small developer community so I couldn't find any AOSP roms suitable with my device. Is it possible to make an AOSP rom work on my tab or is it possible to build rom for my tab? Please help, thanks in advance.

If you have knowledge in making a whole new device tree from scratch, then it'll be possible. But you also need to find the right kernel source. For building AOSP from source you need 3 components:
device tree
kernel source
vendor tree
If you have these 3, you can start building.

Hi, thanks for reply. I don't know how to obtain those. Is there a noobish-written tutorial or something to help me get started? And, can I find these kernel sources, etc in the http://opensource.samsung.com/ because my device is samsung.

There is no tutorial for this. But you can take an example: https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_i9300
This is a device tree for Samsung Galaxy S3 International version. You can get all these from your device itself. For vendor look here: https://github.com/TheMuppets/proprietary_vendor_samsung/tree/cm-11.0/i9300
But vendor is very easy. But I don't think you can make it as for now. I think you should first start building a ROM for a device which has all his dependencies on CM's repo. Start with this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/general/guide-cm11-how-to-build-cyanogenmod-11-t2515305

Kernel source only is not enough guys. We need a eligible device tree.
As stated by @varun.chitre15 in his fb group of Android One there are much to do.

I'm sorry, i really don't mean to be rude but whats the point of this post? if you are looking for available roms for the M4 just look on the "Android Development" section.... if we are going to create a post asking for every rom available, the M4 aqua forum will become a mess, please try to avoid useless posts like this one and http://forum.xda-developers.com/m4-aqua/help/im-sad-t3342116 (what da hell???).
This forum is ours, lets not make it hard for ourselves.
