How to find the git source head for the 2.2 stock kernel? I tried android-msm-2.6.32-nexusonec, but the kernel version is different than the one on my phone: 2.6.32.9-27220-g328f560.
Sources of Froyo aren't released yet.
I see. Then how about the 2.1 source? Is it android-msm-2.6.29-nexusone?
How should I verify the kernel version number in the source?
Samsung has released the kernel source:
http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=search&searchValue=879
Now we have the source, is there a guide anywhere on how to merge this source so we can build CM9 for our T-mobile note?
So I've started learning how to build a kernel given the source code, but I was wondering- since I got the Android 5.1 OTA will I be able to use the 5.0.2 kernel source for now to test on 5.1 until the source for 5.1 is on github? Or is this a bad idea that I should not even consider?
I have no idea. I think if you look up faux123 on Google+ he'll answer it for ya....?
In case you are not aware, here are the kernel sources for the Huawei P8lite. This means that you can now build CyanogenMod or custom kernels for this phone.
Downloads
ALE-L02/ALE-L21/ALE-L23
ALE-L04 (Old 4.4.4 Source)
After seeing the interest for CyanogenMod or a similar AOSP ROM, there is a guide here that shows you how to port CM to a new device. Unfortunately, I can't do it because I don't own the device but if you try, best of luck
If dd98 agrees, i would use this thread to discuss and collect info about how to compile an armv8a kernel for our phone.
By the way, if i run this command in the phone console:
uname -a
It says our stock kernel is for armv7l. Is it normal?
Has anybody already tried to compile from source? Any success?
Any further development on this?
@dd98 I have device and willing to port can you guide on how to do this?
I'm going to try enable USB OTG for B170 for ALE-L21.
Oh.. This is and old thread..
There are already some developers busy with development of custom roms for the Huawei P8 Lite.
There kernel and the source can already been build for android 5 and android 6.

Cyanogenmod is for the moment a problem because of good vendor files.
For now only wifi is working on AOSP builds, as long that there is no RIL ( calling ) you can't do anything with the Custom rom.
I'm personally have buid a bootable rom with Omnirom.
Source for that rom you can find here : https://github.com/olrak2/android_device_huawei_alice/
Somebody tried enable usb otg?
hello all, fairly new to rom development and have gotten almost fully through the process of making my first rom!
my only question is how to include the kernel, vendor and other nesecary files for building in the local manifests xml file.
I found this repo from detcaf which seems to be all the stuff I need but I am unsure how to include it into the xml file.
the rom I am trying to build is based of cyogenmod 11 (android 4.4 kitkat)
detcaf repo: Decatf/android_device_samsung_p4wifi at cm-11.0
guide I have been following: [GUIDE] Build crDroid ROM from source | XDA Forums
sorry if there is aready a post on this that I am unaware of, if so please link it below..
Thankyou so much in advance
