Hi! We just released a bit of code we thought this group might be interested in.
Over at our Android Open-Source Project git servers, the source code
for Android version 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) is now available.
Here's how to get it:Follow the instructions at
http://source.android.com/source/downloading.htmlCheck out the
'ics-release' branch:repo init -u
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-4.0.1_r1
That's it! However since this is a large push, please be aware that it
will take some time to complete. If you sync before it's done, you'll
get an incomplete copy that you won't be able to use, so please wait
for us to give the all-clear before you sync.
This is actually the source code for version 4.0.1 of Android, which
is the specific version that will ship on the Galaxy Nexus, the first
Android 4.0 device. In the source tree, you will find a device build
target named "full_maguro" that you can use to build a system image
for Galaxy Nexus. Build configurations for other devices will come
later.
Unfortunately we still don't have our Gerrit code review servers back
online. That remains our top priority though, and we hope to have them
back soon.
This release includes the full history of the Android source code
tree, which naturally includes all the source code for the Honeycomb
releases. However, since Honeycomb was a little incomplete, we want
everyone to focus on Ice Cream Sandwich. So, we haven't created any
tags that correspond to the Honeycomb releases (even though the
changes are present in the history.)

FLASH

trying put the latest nightly cm-11-20140308-SNAPSHOT-M4-otter.zip got fail in TWRP Recovery 2.6.3.1:, when trying dirty flash from cm-11-20140117-UNOFFICIAL-jem.zip reason not understanding cant i dirty flash ? how would i update to this rom snapshot-m4 ? im not sure but im on hd 8.9 it is Amazon Kindle Fire (1st gen) correct?
this forum rocks thanks for the help
Wrong device, simple as that. 'otter' is the first-gen Kindle (the blocky, low-res ones). The HD models are the second gen, HDX are third gen. Do not attempt to flash anything that doesn't have the 'jem' identifier in its name.
If you're desperate to get the latest nightly build I suppose it should be possible to extract the necessary binary blobs from Hashcode's build and recompile and link the latest CM from the source. Personally I'm just waiting until someone who knows a lot more about it thinks the changes have made it worth building an update.

We need the source code for the camera right? Can't we get the source code from the camera app in Fire OS... and use that source code for roms?

i could not attached a link coz i hace registered recently so its not allowing me to attach link.
but you could simply google it amazon fire phone source code,the link will appear at the top of the result.
Isn't the src for "4.6.6" out for a while now? In the same time window ggow used the 4.6.6 US Binaries for his 2016-01-14 build...
If you are referring to that, that's just the "minimum effort" release by Amazon / Lab126, not a full source drop.
I think it is not the complete source because the size of the package is only 205 MB.

General XDA Article: Google starts uploading Android 13 source code to AOSP

Google starts uploading Android 13 source code to AOSP
After much anticipation, Google has finally released the source code for Android 13. The final version has also launched, too!

Google starts uploading Android 13 source code to AOSP​
After some anticipation, Google has released the source code for Android 13. Although the release came a bit later than expected, the company has started uploading the source code to Android Open Source Project (AOSP) Git repositories. This can often take some time, often requiring hours for the update to be fully populated. As a result, be patient if you don’t see it. This source code release also comes alongside the full release of Android 13.
Before the release, Google updated its Android 13 Security Release Notes which contained details about security vulnerabilities that were present in Android. The update showed security vulnerabilities that have been fixed in Android 13. Devices running Android 13 with a security patch level of 2022-09-01 or later will be protected from these issues. If you’d like to check what version of Android you’re running and the security patch level, most manufacturers have it listed under the About Phone section under Settings.
XDA VIDEO OF THE DAY
The release of Android 13’s source code is important, not only for those that want to tinker with the OS but also for communities that build custom ROMs and aftermarket distributions of Android like LineageOS. Major manufacturers must also rely on this repository for their own Android releases. You can have a look at the Android 13 source code by heading over to Google Git.
For developers, this is an important time as it is time to release compatible versions of their apps and build out more features with APIs. Google is releasing the Android 13 source code under the Apache License version 2.0. Apache 2.0 is a permissive rather than copyleft license, meaning developers can modify and distribute the code freely without being required to open-source their modifications. This licensing system is what allows smartphone makers to develop their own closed-source forks of Android.
If you’re interested in analyzing the Android 13 source code, you can head over to the Android Git repositories and look for the new Android 13 branches and tags. Specifically, look for the “android-13.0.0_r#” tags. It takes a while for the entirety of Google’s internal codebase to be pushed to the public AOSP repositories, so expect to wait a few hours before you can sync everything. Google also uploads the commit history for each release, which provides a lot of insight into the Android team’s thought process when adding or removing features.
