i think cm10.1 is the one to do unless i'm getting my versions mixed up,
cm10.2 is android 4.3 and that had problems.
cm10.1 is android 4.2 and should be an easy match i think.
wanting the latest version of whatever is not always best.
and i mean this in the best way, xda is not a shopping mall it's a developers site.
requests are a reasonable thing to expect. progressively flooding the forums with useless
threads/posts is not reasonable. rather than ask for someone else to do for you, take the time
to learn so you can do for yourself. i started in may and since then i have learned a lot.
all i ask is that you consider that.

alright

you start by using the xda search bar.
search terms such as how to compile a kernel, how to build a rom, etc.
and read, read, read.
you will also need a linux 64bit pc for rom building.
you can use a linux 32bit pc for kernel building which is where i started.
as a sort of quick link to find the threads in which i began my learning process
click on my username and select view posts option, it will show you every post i've made.
pay particular attention to the discussions between myself and Restl3ss as he completely guided me
through the process to getting my cm11 build environment set up. there is a huge deal of excellent noob-friendly
info in there.
good luck :good:

you will need to search the internet for instruction on installing Linux.
again, read read read.
As a recommendation search for Debian Linux or Linux Mint.
That is outside the scope of this discussion however. When you have completed that then return
to XDA to continue your quest.

Check out the chef central forum on this site. There is a kitchen that can be useful for modifying existing roms. Also, there is a topic titled "some advice" by cyanogen. That has some links that will help you get started. You should look into running some flavor of Linux (i prefer ubuntu, but you aren't limited to that distro). What is your experience so far?

I have no experience with any Linux distribution. Years back I always wanted to get into it just never did.. I'm good with taking pre existing code and learning it and adding to it.. I know I'd be going with a sense based rom, and try to add some functions from other existin told..
I will have to check out the chef forum here. I've never clicked over to it , bit it definitely sounds like it will ne helpful.. much thanks..

The 4 basic things you will need, you can search the forums here for the Kitchen. Like previously stated you can use Ubuntu or Linux Mint which is based off Ubuntu.
A forum Member named Heyitslou made a tutorial on how to use the APKTool also: http://blip.tv/file/4382608.
The kitchen is pretty straight forward on what you can do with it...just follow the thread on how to set it up.
Remember be patient while you are making your ROM (some trial and error, best to work on a phone you dont rely on for important calls)...I have made my first ROM this weekend...I swear I had to cook it 50 times to get it working properly with what i wanted to change and add...so 50 ROM flashes=alot of time you wont be able to get calls... just a heads up. I am pretty sure next time I edit in some changes it will be faster and easier...The Kitchen is a great tool and does what you want..just got to know what not to do in the kitchen...it could be messy.

im going to look into the Cygwin method as dsixda stated in the kitchen thread.. im anxious to getting to ripping out parts of roms and merging if possible..
so ima switch to the virtualbox/ubuntu method for this.. i think it will be easier for me to solve issues with community support this way..

I recommend just going ahead and installing the OS directly, but that's just what I would do.
sent from my Droid incredible using the xda app
maybe at some point in the future if my brain becomes that curious to the OS itself.. for now this method will do..
so i downloaded the java6 bin and jre, trying to install it via terminal i'm getting nowhere..
dpkg-i command not found
java installed
kitchen installed
now to go rip apart my laundry tub plumbing and replace it..
whats the nitty gritty on getting behind the scenes on a previously compiled ROM??

[CM9] Building from source

Hey Everyone,
This is my first post here on XDA. I've been around for a while and always try to read a lot before attempting anything so as not to break stuff; hence the reason for no posts so far. I appreciate all of the helpful information I find on these forums and it has been great for keeping my trusty Dinc running well and running the latest Android OS.
I have been busy with school, but finally have some time to sit down and bang out some Android development, leading me to my
Question/problem: I am attempting to build android from source to get up and running on being able to create my own ROMs or help contribute to others and I've run into a problem. I'm stuck in a boot-loop during the CM9 boot animation. I have a logcat dump during the boot that shows the errors and the cycle of it trying again and again, but I'm not sure where to go next.
Background:
I have been running drk.hd's CM9 ROM for the last month or so (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1558923) and I have enjoyed it. It works very well. He has build instructions posted on his github here: https://github.com/drkhd/android_device_htc_inc. I have followed those steps exactly as posted, which all work as expected. I have not run into any build/compile errors, but after flashing the zip file, I end up in the boot-loop.
Logcat:
I pasted the logcat here: http://pastebin.com/wVVbmeRY
The last ~400 lines just repeat until killing the logcat. I can see errors about media services dying and a fatal signal 11, but again, I'm not sure what to do with this information.
Any help is much appreciated. I know this should really be in the dev forum, but as I mentioned, this is my first post; I don't have 10 posts yet, so I cannot post in the dev forum until that point. I am really just starting to dig into this stuff, so go easy on me and help guide me in the right direction so I can take things and run with them. Once I get a feel for how best to approach android development, I should be able to pick it up pretty easily.
Thanks
I know this thread should really be in the dev forum, but if any of you have any suggestions or can at least point me in the right direction for where to look for answers, that would be great.
Thanks again

This is the right forum. Development threads are meant to be for ROM and other development support, Q&A is where I would ask about this too but I guess the other devs either aren't around or don't know how to answer your question. cmlusco is a dev of touch of blue and he lingers around Q&A a lot so maybe if he comes across this he can give you some insight. I would really like to get into building ROMs as well but I don't have any experience in coding just yet. I don't really know what kind of experience is required to build ROMs either and my only Ubuntu machine is 32-bit so I am essentially out of the race for now. That being said, I found this guide that I was going to use for my own building ventures until I realized I needed a 64-bit machine but maybe it can help you or maybe the support can give you a little direction. I hope this helps!!

I would love to help but i have no clue how to build from source. All i know how to do is take stock roms and modify and tweak them. I do not have a linux setup, i use win 7 with cygwin and android kitchen. Android kitchen does a lot of the work for you. Apktool is another great windows program for decompiling and recompiling apks. It just takes time to tweak and modify everything. Google and xda are your best friends, you can find the answer to just about anything you want.

Some help in Dev a Rom

Hi, guys,I want to port a Pac-man rom to our glides, but, my internet is only 512, my pc is very good for the work, but my internet no. 1 Night and only 800 mb. (and i think that there was a error and cut the connection)
My question is. Can I download all the repo (Pac-man gith andour device tree) in another pc using windows, and use that file in my linux OS? I can go to download in another place, but only with windows. If the answer is Yes, where can I learn how to do that?

I don't see why not, unless your repo is OS specific...
I would set up a virtual linux machine and use that to do everything, as it will cause less hiccups. Easier to build on there, or so I'm told...
EDIT: Do you want to work together? I'm trying to port as well. Just a basic port, using this guide:

Wow, your guide seems very easy, and there is an app to do it too.
I will try to see if i can install linux in one of these machines to download all.
I dont know any about porting, or fixing things in android, I want to learn and I am using Dman's Tutorial, so, not sure if I can help doing a real rom

i want to do a pacrom as well.. ive been really busy the last 2 weeks though so havent had a chance to fix my ubuntu install... my build environment is almost done, just gave me errors.. well need to setup a repo on github... for now though its not a bad idea to be patient and allow everyone to focus on fixing the cm that spyke is working on.. thats one thing i wonder about the greatergood .. if he focused on one fully working vs many broken if we'd have a bluetooth fix...
Yes, but in that time, I will learn, I see minor errors when sync the repo, but continue (sometimes the conection broke it but can restart) I first want to learn

ya cool I'm with you ... When I have some free time next I will fix my devel. Let's work on this together im sure we can help eachother out quite a bit and put together an updated how-to compile from source for 4.2.2.
I don't see any reason why you can't download all of the items you need under windows. The only thing you'd need to be concerned when copying it back is file permissions ... shouldn't be an issue, though.
Question, though, what makes you believe it would be faster downloading in windows vs linux ? is your windows computer a laptop that you'll be taking somewhere else to download? ...
Yes, I will go to another place to download all. If I dont do that, I never going to finish

Remix OS

Hi guys, I'm a new one here at the N7 forum, so I was wondering if have a chance of porting remix OS to the N7?? Some Dev want to try?? well I'm studying software engineering and maybe this can be a project, let me know what you guys think
PS: sorry about my English, still studying it[emoji14]

I gave my hand at attempting to port it when it came out but I'm not sure if I was doing something wrong as I could get the ROM to boot up to the boot animation, but the OS itself would not start the UI. I used some of the tutorials on here to attempt porting, but most of the tutorials are for 4.1 and below, so I'm not sure if I was missing something like SELinux contexts on files or something. That said, if you can get further porting it I'd be happy to test, been using PhoenixOS but would love to try RemixOS on my tablet.

New section for oreo stuffs

Dear Admins,
Can we have a separate section for oreo related moda, apps and themes... This will ensure users from installing unsupported stuffs as wells as to avoid getting bricked/boot loop. This can also be used as a one stop place to look for oreo related stuffs...

really ...anyone who gets a brick because of not reading a thread certainly shouldnt be xda or even messing around with the phone in the first place. just stay stock if you wont read
We survived finely when Nougat was still new, so what makes Oreo special?
There's simply no good point to making a whole section for a particular version of Android. The same thing can be done simply with a proper thread title.
The problem isn't purely on the lack of separation of sections — It's the 5 seconds attention span that most seems to have because they can't read the first post of the thread they're in or they're too busy looking at butterflies and they ended up destroying their device and/or data inside the device.
I know we can't fix people, but that doesn't make for a good argument for creating a new section.

As stated. This is not gonna happen. If you cant do the proper research needed for what you are doing then you shouldnt be doing it in the first place.
I disagree with OP - there shouldn't be separate section for Oreo stuff. Ask yourself - what would happen, if released mod would be compatible with Marshmallow, Nougat and Oreo?
Okay, now that's not going to happen. But what can happen is in every thread the op can state the supported android versions first or the rom's android version first and then state what is the thread for (rom, mod, source code...). Something like "[7.1.1][ROM] Resurrection Remix 5.8.4 SomethingTweaks Edition" and not "[OH YEAH BABY WE SUPPORT COLOR ENGINE] CrazyManiacLunatic Tweaks". All the OPs should first give the supported android version or the rom android version then state what is the thread about and then write the rom that they are based on then write the name that they've given. But they MUST write the android version and the thread's reason to exist at first. Because this way when you are looking for an oreo rom you just have to look inside the first bracket and find it quickly instead of checking each thread's name to first find out where is the version and then looking at the version.

Yeah that is not gonna happen either. This gets brought up every few years and the answer is always the same. The devs can name their threads anything and any way they want. Heck they don't have to encludes any info at all.
People seem to forget that this is a developers site. Not a rom site or a support site. You are expected to do your own homework and have all the info you need before flashing. That encludes how to use command line to recover from something bad happening.

Well, developers love mentioning how they won't take responsibility if anything happens in every single thread over a million times but they seem to forget that people are looking for most basic info in the OP post. Developing can only be achieved if you acknowledge something and share it with others. The progress can not be achieved without information. I'm not going to flash a rom just to see if it is a Nougat or an Oreo rom. And I'm not going to flash all versions of modems to see which is the right one. Developers and maintainers must inform casual users or other developers about what is they are looking at. Sharing is caring. Not everybody likes to use something they don't know.
