[Q] How to build GT-S5830I rom AOSP from source - Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I am traying to build aosp rom for the Samsung Galaxy ace GT-S5830I from Source then i have download the kernel and platform from [opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=list&menu_item=mobile&classification1=mobile_phone&classification2=&classification3=],
i followed the instructions that i find inside the zip to build the kernel, after that i unpack and repack zimage to boot.img,
i have build the plateform by following the instructions when, but i flash all of them (boot.img, system.img, userdata.img) to the Phone it not start.
Please help me to know what is the probleme
Sorry for my english

To make an AOSP ROM you're going to have the device specific config files and folders for your particular device .
Do you have them ?

Prepare device config and sync sources using
$ mkdir android
$ cd android
$ repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-2.3.7_r1
$ repo sync
For a detailed explanation just search the threads
There r many link on how to build AOSP from source
Becarefull while doin it.... A small advice : Do not try unless xperienced

Yes i have did all of that, i have downloaded the source from android repo, and i have integrated the GT-S5830I as it says in the instructions, and i have builded.
The probleme is that the Device not start (not work) when i flash system.img and userdata.img that result from the build.

[GUIDE] Compiling CyanogenMod and Kernels from Source on Mac OS X Lion using Homebrew

I have written this guide as most existing guides for Mac OS X use MacPorts and include steps that are now unnecessary. It is geared towards intermediate users and up, who know some Terminal basics.
I had used the same build environment previously on Snow Leopard and later on when I upgraded to Lion. Now that I have just clean installed Lion, I documented the steps I took to rebuild my build environment.
I did the following on Lion 10.7.2 and Xcode 4.2. As far as I can recall, it should work with Snow Leopard and Xcode 4 and above. Do let me know if it does not.
Setup Build Environment
Install Xcode
Install Java

$ rm /usr/local/bin/stat
$ rm /usr/local/bin/expr
Click to expand...

Best to put the above in a Bash script. Temporarily symlink stat and expr, only for kernel compilation, as OS X versions might be expected elsewhere (like in CyanogenMod's scripts). Other guides for cross-compiling Linux kernels on Mac mention several ways to resolve missing elf.h definitions. Luckily for us, CM7 source already has an elf.h, so we can include it with HOSTCFLAGS="-I../cm/external/elfutils/libelf".

I know a lot of people will be able to save precious time due to this. Including me Thanx a lot!
So how do you take the compiled kernel and make it the default kernel in the new Bacon, or will it be automatic on the next Bacon build?

It won't, that's just to compile. The kernel part of the guide is more to document Mac-specific workarounds for people who want to work with the source of the CM7 kernel or other kernels.
If you're just making Bacon, the latest CM7 kernel binary would already be included in the CM7 source. It is the same as what you'd get if you compiled unmodified CM7 kernel source and I think it is a good idea to have that to fall back on.
However, I guess it would be useful to document how to package the compiled kernel and modules in a flashable AnyKernel zip. Bit busy now, will add it later.

I realized that if I started to include instructions for that, I should split it out along with other tips into a new post on how I bake in some simple customizations with a bash script, without a full-blown kitchen. (Because that is not platform-specific) When I have time! In the meantime, some quick pointers:
To change the default kernel for any ROM, you'll need to change the boot.img in the zip using unpackbootimg and mkbootimg, which would have been built along with CM7 in cm7/out/host/darwin-x86/bin (linux-x86 for linux). Copy them to somewhere in your path like /usr/local/bin. Copy the boot.img from the ROM zip and the zImage for the kernel you want to embed into another directory then run the following commands in that directory:
unpackbootimg -i boot.img
mkbootimg --kernel zImage --ramdisk boot.img-ramdisk.gz --cmdline "`cat boot.img-cmdline`" --base `cat boot.img-base` --pagesize `cat boot.img-pagesize` -o boot.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
then replace the original boot.img in the ROM zip with this new one. Hope that helps!
PS: And replace the modules in system/modules with the ones from the kernel you want to embed. (Caveat: I don't do any of this manually)

I get an error trying to mkdir /Volumes/Android/cm7
mkdir: /Volumes/Android: No such file or directory
Help?

Development! Project JellyBeanSwift - Open Source Project!

I will teach you build ROM.
Lets get some ROCK!!!
Operating System
First step is having a fully functional linux distro. You can choose what you prefer, I'm using ubuntu and I write commands for it. You can use OSX too, as I know, but I've completely no idea how, I never had a Mac.
Well, talking about linux, you need a 64bit distribution, so if you have an old 32 bit processor youn cannot go ahead.
To check which version do you have, type in a shell
uname -a
If the results include "x86_64" you're ok.
Required Packages
You need to install some little packages, to be able to proceed, you can do this with your favorite package manager:
sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential zip curl libc6-dev libncurses5-dev:i386 x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev:i386 libreadline6-dev:i386 libgl1-mesa-dev:i386 g++-multilib mingw32 openjdk-6-jdk pngcrush schedtool tofrodos python-markdown libxml2-utils xsltproc zlib1g-dev:i386
Some systems need some trick to install all this package, is your care to check this process completed correctly and fix eventually problems.
Install "repo"
Repo is the program that handles synchronization between our pc and the repository, in this case Cyanogen's one. To install do:
mkdir -p ~/bin
curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
So we have downloaded and added executables flag to it. Now we need a folder to store locally the sources, you can put it everywhere, but to be coherent with other guides, I do:
mkdir -p ~/CM10/
Repository initialization
Well, now it's time to initialize our source folder to correctly sync with repository:
cd CM10
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b jellybean
Nota: Maybe the repo command is not recognized. In this case you can restart the shell or te machine.
Download
Now is download time! Write this command and get a fresh beer, you have to download several GB of data, please wait.
repo sync -j16
The "-j16" switch may be modified as you want, is the number of concurrent thread downloading from repo. 16 is my value, for a 100Mbit connection, maybe you can decrease a little to match your line speed. Someone uses 8 threads for an 8Mbit ADSL line.
Download precompiled files.
There are some others files needed, like the toolchain, including GCC, to compile code.
~/CM10/vendor/cm/get-prebuilts
Another small wait time and we're ready!
Add sources code for GT540
Copy sources from https://github.com/mmxtrem/device_lge_swift to ~/CM10/device/lge/swift
Or extract this archive http://depositfiles.com/files/1chflk58r to ~/CM10/device/lge/swift
Build
Great, we're ready to build!
The build process takes some hours, so be patient. My notebook, takes more than 10 hours!
cd CM10
source build/envsetup.sh && brunch swift
Install
When is ready, we can find the result here:
~/CM10/system/out/target/product/swift/cm-10-XXXXX-JellyBeanSwift-XXXX.zip
This is the package to be flashed in recovery mode.
There are Gapps included.
Update
If you want to update your build, you have to do only this:
cd CM10
repo sync
and build again!
P.S. Dont forget write Credit my name, when will be publish your ROM. Good Luck!

thanks for that tut miroslav !!
i would be happy if you can make example of bug fixing/driver porting (something simple as example).
Oh, nice post Miro
But one thing, why don't you post how to make device files. It would be of more use as people will try to make their own sources and a good chance that they could make their own device in collaboration. :good:
i've ear i can do a build in a 32bits processor too! but you know xD do what was said up please!!
Could someone try to build this because I can't cause I have 32bit system in my PC.

Yes, me too, the build comes so big that it fails the size checks on the default partition layout.
To avoid that change the contents in device/lge/swift/BoardConfig.mk, I've used these values:
Code:
# PARTITIONS
BOARD_BOOTIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x00500000
BOARD_RECOVERYIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x00900000
BOARD_SYSTEMIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x0010B07600
BOARD_USERDATAIMAGE_PARTITION_SIZE := 0x007478A00
BOARD_FLASH_BLOCK_SIZE := 131072
I believe you can still zip up the right files in out/target/product/swift/ to have a signable update zip, the command "make otapackage" which I found somewhere didn't seem to work.

yes, I use jdk7 as deprecated java commands were fixed in cm9 but you can use jdk6 to be sure that it will work.
To init and sync the repo:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm-10.1
repo sync -j16

Where 16 is the number of jobs to do simultaneously, some people say that this number must be your cpu cores count +1 so if you have a quad core cpu you use -j5, well I really doubt this and I prefer to use at least j8, you can try it yourself.

java is working correct, i think i tested -j a few times now i think j16 is great also j32 makes no big difference, but thanks a lot
could someone try to build using external/dhcpd from cm7.2 branch? I will as soon as I get my pc maybe that fix the wifi issue

frapeti helped me a lot, its building atm after that there will be probs :silly:
do you know if brunch cm_janice-eng -j4 makes any differences in build-speed?

i built it with -j4 next time i gonna try with -j1 to find out if there are differences
In repo '-j#' corresponds to the jobs being executed at a time. When brunch is used, the maximum possible of jobs is used.
if i add diegos repo to local_manifest get these folders updated automatically?

Yes. If you do a repo sync and if there are any changes to Diego's repo by any of the devs, the changes will get synced automatically!

@diego-ch
will this line:
Code:
write /sys/class/leds/button-backlight/brightness 255
@
Code:
/device/samsung/u8500-common/init.samsungjanice.rc
fix button leds? I can't try at the moment, just done the same thing by adding "echo 255 > /sys/class/leds/button-backlight/brightness" in "/system/etc/init.d/90userinit" and it works fine but it's like a workaround I guess XD
PS: I have synced your repo and build but kernel still doesn't boot the system, the recovery still works fine
if you dont do
Code:
$ make clobber
files of older builds are used? only unchanged or everything, should i make clobber everytime?

I'm not sure if we should add this to the init.rc, meanwhile we can use it...

cm team updated something on cm10.1 branch (or maybe I messed up something)
I'm looking into it...

Make clobber removes all files including the objective files. This is only needed if you edit the core files like boardconfig.mk
If you edit any other files like recovery.fstab, common.mk then the change is recognized by the system and the files are updated automatically!
So tl;dr, make clobber is to be used only if you edit core config files (mostly only boardconfig.mk)!

I have seen OliverG96 changing the device name on 10.1 repo from bcm4330 to bcm4334 but I think we have different chipsets, for instance our binary file is "/system/bin/bcm4330.hcd" while in sgs3 mini is "/system/bin/bcm4334.hcd"
EDIT: little BIG difference:
i9070: NovaThor U8500
i8190: NovaThor U8420

I'm aware of that (see the kernel defconfig).
I pointed it out on that commit... see here
shaaan was the one who merged it.
hope not to be so annoying
@defconfig:
CONFIG_BCMDHD_FW_PATH="/system/etc/firmware/fw_bcmdhd.bin"
CONFIG_BCMDHD_NVRAM_PATH="/system/etc/wifi/bcmdhd.cal"

Compiling frandom module for kernel 2.6.32.9

hi.
i would like to get some information about how to compile frandom module for my kernel.
here is the wiki... https://github.com/pier11/kernel_hu...-packing-the-kernel-into-a-flashable-boot.img
and git https://github.com/pier11/kernel_huawei_u8220
so which command i should use ? (i ve been told ---> CONFIG_*=m)
and when ?
i have the frandom kernel module tarball. dl it here= http://billauer.co.il/frandom.html
do i have to extract it? in which directory?
thank you very much...

as there is no teachers(for the moment) in that "university", i had to "harass" some regonized people from xda...(sorry for that)
and they kindly try to help me...
i had this kind of answer which i could do : i think that the following is to build the module included in the kernel..
Download Makefile, Kconfig, and frandom.c and put all three in your downloaded kernel source (drivers/char directory) overwriting any existing file.
this part is done...
but how to do that ? add FRANDOM=m to the kernel .config file ? and where is located that file?

i have been googling far much more than 2 minutes and i already found these threads...but couldn't manage...
by egg with this one ...which contains error... http://yatsec.blogspot.co.uk/2011/01...om-kernel.html
PREPARING YOUR KERNEL SOURCE
First we must retrieve and copy the kernel config from our device.
Code:
$ cd /path/to/android-sdk/tools ----->ok
$ ./adk pull /proc/config.gz ----->not good! you have to make first $ adb devices in terminal....then $ adb pull /proc/config.gz
$ gunzip ./config.gz ----->ok
$ cp config /path/to/kernel/.config not working! ----> cp: cannot create regular file /path/to/kernel/.config : No such file or directory....
so what to do now?
how to solve this please? i will keep on googling to try to find out solution...any help is welcome
thank you
when i will finish my little project , i think that other people would benefit from that... i might make a how to .
for information ,i have been setting ubuntu 12.10 64 bits from this thread ---->http://soupdawg.wordpress.com/2012/...-for-building-android-jellybean-all-variants/

That's because you are meant to put in the path to your kernel, rather than literally /path/to/kernel...
@OP
I know you sent me a PM, but it's better if I reply here.
THIS is what did it for me. Of course my goal wasn't achieved as the extraversion bit was wrong. The X8 is a tricky device.
And make sure to go through the whole thread first.
And also try to use the arm-eabi toolchain from CM as that one throws the least errors.

hi all. i manage to compile the module thanks to Blechd0se http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4855459 i will soon edit the working how to kindly provided by him.
i thank all people who have been providing help and advices... and XDA
here are the change provided by bledchOse to be able to compile the frandom module for my kernel. and little how to
1---> https://github.com/pier11/kernel_hu...-packing-the-kernel-into-a-flashable-boot.img
2---> https://github.com/desalesouche/kernel_huawei_u8220
make the change in kernel before to build it ( change are in green)
3---> https://github.com/desalesouche/jordan-kernel/commit/52e4f2d00b2ea11e3643adb4c4235bdda7a87b5b
4---> Originally Posted by Blechd0se

And if you already compiled your kernel its inside the kernel, no need to compile another module which does exactly the same and you can instead push your kernel to your device "
5 build the kernel and or module and finish to follow explanation of link 1...
you will find the frandom .ko under drivers/char/frandom/ where your kernel is located... copy it under system/lib/modules/ in your rom zip.
you will need a script to make it load:be activated at boot
Et voilĂ !!!
It's funny because it is true.....
