Is anyone in the process of porting TWRP to wear 24? Shouldn't be too difficult since it utilizes the same processor as the zenwatch 3 and the kernel for the wear24 can be located at the Android git under the name Dorado.
!UPDATE! This has been achieved https://forum.xda-developers.com/android-wear/development/how-to-install-twrp-recovery-achieve-t3781502
!UPDATE!
I would like to see this also.

Hey I found someone on this thread (mkorenko) who managed to port TWRP to the Wear24 over USB!
Just for reference, official TWRP is now available.

Hi
Could anybody point me in the direction of sourcing, locating and compiling a kernel module please? I have found many guides but they all seem to start halfway in the process ("assuming you have already managed to...", "assuming you are already proficient with...")
I have a cheap Android Chinese TV box. It came without joydev.ko so I can't use it with joypads/sticks, which is a pretty big limitation considering it has 4 usb ports which work fine with keyboards, mice and webcams.
I already have an Eclipse environemt set up which I use for Java/Android development but I've never dabbled with anything like this before.
I guess the steps required are something like this:
Locate source code for my particular Android version (Android 4.2.2, Kernel 3.3.0) - where do I do that? Do I need the entire source or can I just download and compile the module by itself?
Set up the cross compiler - is this a standard thing, or does it depend on my hardware? My chipset is an Allwinner A20 ARM Cortex-A7(Dual Core)
Compile the module.
So, have I got the steps right? If not, please correct me. If so.... how do I go about doing the above?
I'm trying to get Android 4.4 up and running on my LG Optimus G Pro (GPRO). The GPRO uses the Snapdragon 600 processor which is almost identical to the S4 Pro found in the Nexus 4. I pulled the Android 4.4_r1 tag and noticed that Google already has the kernel (binary) available for the mako device (Nexus 4) and was wondering if I can simply reuse the binary on the GPRO. I know I still need to build the GPRO specific board support binaries which I am in the process of doing but I would imagine that the kernel is something that I should just be able to reuse. Are there any technical pitfalls that I am not seeing here with respect to reusing the kernel? I'm going for a close to AOSP build as possible. I guess I'll find out the answer to my question soon enough but was just wonder if folks have already tried this and was there a great deal of success.
hello all
i like to develop since 9 years old. Actually i am 24. I don't understand well the basics of Android and propietary devices. I used to install CM on all my family's devices, but always unofficial builds and not selfKANGs. Since 1 week ago, I am trying to build the the CM's 11.0 with no luck. Then i went to official google's developers site of android, and finally i got a system compiled and ready to install.
but now, before to push the flashing key, i am doubting about all... i mean, there'r a lot of steps I havent done:
1. obtain propietary binaries from my actual installation
2. not sure about if built the correct official version or compatible for samsung galaxy s iii (gt-9300)
3. i just wanted to add support for a S3C USB Host HUB for connecting my keyboard and mouse into my S3's micro-usb port.
so, now that i have obtained a lot of curiosity about that world, i want to learn more and more... but haven't anything clear at all.
then, can you please answer me the following questions?
1. why everyone is installing CM in S3? And not official android version?
2. how can I configure and add support to my USB host hub into the correct version of the kernel for the actual 4.4 KitKat software (CM-11.0) of my S3's?
3. can you explain me why can't I compile CM-11 or CM-10.2 with my Ubuntu Server 14.04 ? Lot of errors...
I would have more time to ask and ask, but I need to stop here.
Thanks to all for all the information in the posts I have read until now. And for the future's ones.
See ya,
Abel.
Hello,
My device is a Lenovo Yoga Tab 2 830f running stock Lollipop 5.0 at the moment. Bootloader unlocked and permanent TWRP recovery.
I am trying to learn about Android development while building CM13 for this device. I am using the following as my references:
surdu_petru's TWRP recovery
Olivier's CM12.1 port
Lenovo's open source code for Yoga Tab 2
CyanogenMod's porting guide
I have the following questions:
* What exactly are we supposed to do with the files in the archive supplied by Lenovo?
* Why did Olivier start porting CM12.1 instead of CM13? Also, why x86 instead of x86_64?
* Is there any agreed-upon device configuration I should be using for this Baytrail tablet? How about this BoardConfig.mk for Minnowboard Max from Intel Android-IA?
The CyanogenMod porting guide is not exactly specific on any particular strategy how to set up the BoardConfig.mk and other files in ./device/. I get it that it's trial and error for the most part, but is there any general guideline I should be following?
I expect this learning experience to take at least a couple of months, so I'll be keeping this thread open for more questions as soon as I have them.
Hello, I am also interested in working on this device. I am currently trying to build using these instructions: https://forum.xda-developers.com/th...-cyanogenmod-12-1-lenovo-yoga-tablet-t3333360
Hello I am Jimmy and I am starting on ROM development for mobile and PC. I have a few doubts regarding that.
1> Android-x86 Oreo is the latest build on their website, But roms like Bliss, they ported Pie on PC. How to do that? I mean how to get Android-x86 pie?
2> How much average time does it take to compile the source of Android(both x86 and arm64)? [Specs for consideration: Intel Core i7-8750H 2.2 Ghz 6 cores, 16 GB RAM, Ubuntu 18.04 ]
3> What IDE/Development softwares should I use for modifying the original source code that is? Android Studio? Netbeans? Notepad++? Or what??
And a question not regarding development:
I have a device lying around my drawer. My bro used to use it until he bought a new one. Its LAVA Z60 which is based on MTK MT6737 chipset. I researched but found out that there are very few MTK devices with custom roms. Is LAVA Z60 one of em? And if so, where to get the Device Tree, Vendor, Kernel etc.. for the device? Also, note that MTK Droid tools does identify the device, but I cant create scatter file cuz there is just one item on the list with location and every other thing as 0.
Soo.. yeah thats all. Please help me if you can. Thanks in advance.
