This is a guide to Compile From any CyanogenMod and CyanogenMod Source-Based source for Any Phone. This guide is for linux , Ubuntu etc.​
What you’ll need
A Phone Which runs Android
A relatively recent computer (Linux, OS X, or Windows) w/a reasonable amount of RAM and storage. The less RAM you have, the longer the build will take. Using SSDs results in faster builds than traditional hard drives.
A micro USB cable
A decent Internet connection & reliable electricity
Some familiarity with basic Android operation and terminology. It would help if you’ve installed custom roms on other devices and are familiar with what a recovery image such as ClockworkMod is, for example. It may also be useful to know some basic command line concepts such as cd for “change directory”, the concept of directory hierarchies, that in Linux they are separated by /, etc.
Note:
You want to use a 64-bit version of Linux. According to Google, 32-bit Linux environment will only work if you are building older versions prior to Gingerbread (2.3.x)/CyanogenMod 7.
Using a VM allows Linux to run as a guest inside your host computer-- a computer in a computer, if you will. If you hate Linux for whatever reason, you can always just uninstall and delete the whole thing. (There are plenty of places to find instructions for setting up Virtualbox with Ubuntu, so I’ll leave it to you to do that.)

So let’s begin!​
Build ROM and ClockworkMod Recovery
​
Prepare the Build Environment
Note:
You only need to do these steps the first time you build. If you previously prepared your build environment and have downloaded the CyanogenMod source code for another device, skip to Next Post.

Install the SDK
If you have not previously installed adb and fastboot, install the Android SDK. "SDK" stands for Software Developer Kit, and it includes useful tools that you will can use to flash software, look at the system logs in real time, grab screenshots, and more-- all from your computer.
Helpful Tip!
While the SDK contains lots of different things-- the two tools you are most interested in for building Android are adb and fastboot, located in the /platform-tools directory.

Install the Build Packages
Several "build packages" are needed to build From Source. You can install these using the package manager of your choice.
Helpful Tip!
A package manager in Linux is a system used to install or remove software (usually originating from the Internet) on your computer. With Ubuntu, you can use the Ubuntu Software Center. Even better, you may also use the apt-get install command directly in the Terminal. (Learn more about the apt packaging tool system from Wikipedia.)

For 32-bit & 64-bit systems, you'll need:
Code:
git-core gnupg flex bison gperf libsdl1.2-dev libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.8-dev squashfs-tools build-essential zip curl
libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev openjdk-6-jre openjdk-6-jdk pngcrush schedtool
For 64-bit only systems, get these:
Code:
g++-multilib lib32z1-dev lib32ncurses5-dev lib32readline-gplv2-dev gcc-4.7-multilib g++-4.5-multilib
For Linux Mint, you'll need:
Code:
libc6-dev x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev libgl1-mesa-dev mingw32 tofrodos python-markdown libxml2-utils
Create the directories
Code:
mkdir -p ~/bin
Install the repo command
Enter the following to download the "repo" binary and make it executable (runnable):
Code:
curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
Put the ~/bin directory in your path of execution
Make sure that the ~/bin directory you just created is in your path of execution so that you can easily run the repo command even when you're not in ~/bin. Assuming you are using the BASH shell, the default in recent versions of Ubuntu, you can set it like this:
Code:
export PATH=${PATH}:~/bin
Helpful Tip!
You can make this change to the path permanent for all future Terminal sessions:
Code:
gedit ~/.bashrc
This will launch a graphical text editor. Enter
Code:
export PATH=${PATH}:~/bin
on its own line, then save the file.

Initialize the source repository
Make a Folder to Download the Sources and cd to it. For That:
Code:
mkdir -p ~/Source
Code:
cd Source
Enter the following to initialize the repository:
REPOSITORY'S OF FAMOUS ROMS (Select One)
PAC-Man :
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/PAC-man/android.git -b cm-10.2
CM 11.0 :
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm-11.0
CM 10.1 :
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm-10.2
CM10 :
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b jellybean
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Download the source code
Code:
repo sync
Helpful Tip!
The repo sync command is used to update the latest source code from CyanogenMod and Google. Remember it, as you can do it every few days to keep your code base fresh and up-to-date.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Get prebuilt apps
Code:
cd ~/Source/vendor/cm
Code:
./get-prebuilts
How To Compile is there on next post ​

Prepare the device-specific code
After the source downloads, type:
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh
Then Do This
Code:
breakfast ******
Where ***** is the codename for your device
MAKE SURE YOUR PHONE IS ON OFFICIAL LATEST CYANOGENMOD ROM
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Helpful Tip!
If you get a command not found error for lunch, be sure you’ve done the “. build/envsetup.sh” command from ~/Source. Notice there is a period and space (“. ”) in that command.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Extract proprietary blobs
Now ensure that your Phone is connected to your computer via the USB cable and that you are in the ~/Source/device/***/***** directory (you can cd ~/Source/device/***/****** if necessary). Run as Root if on Debian using sudo. Then run the this script:
Code:
./proprietary-files.sh
or
Code:
./extract-files.sh
Here ***** is Device codename and *** is the Phone Company like Samsung or HTC
For Example if my phone is note 2 then this will be the device path : ~/Source/device/Samsung/n7100
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You should see the proprietary files (aka “blobs”) get pulled from the device and moved to the right place in the vendor directory. If you see errors about adb being unable to pull the files, adb may not be in the path of execution
Note:
It’s important that these proprietary files are properly extracted and moved to the vendor directory. Without them, CyanogenMod will build without error, but you’ll be missing important functionality, such as the ability to see anything!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Turn on caching to speed up build
Code:
export USE_CCACHE=1
Start the build
Code:
cd ~/Source
brunch *****
Here ***** is the Phone Codename
Helpful Tip!
If the build doesn't start, try lunch and choose your device from the menu. If that doesn't work, try breakfast and choose from the menu. The command make ***** should then work.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If the build breaks...
If you experience this not-enough-memory-related error...
Code:
ERROR: signapk.jar failed: return code 1make: *** [out/target/product/n7100/cm_n7100-ota-eng.root.zip] Error 1
...you may want to make the following change to This File : system/build/tools/releasetools/common.py
Change: java -Xmx2048m to java -Xmx1024m or java -Xmx512m
Then start the build again (with brunch).
If you see a message about things suddenly being “killed” for no reason, your (virtual) machine may have run out of memory or storage space. Assign it more resources and try again.
Install the build
Assuming the build completed without error (it will be obvious when it finishes), type:
Code:
# cd $OUT
in the same terminal window that you did the build. Here you’ll find all the files that were created. The stuff that will go in /system is in a folder called system. The stuff that will become your ramdisk is in a folder called root. And your kernel is called... kernel.
But that’s all just background info. The two files we are interested in are (1) recovery.img, which contains ClockworkMod recovery, and (2) cm-[something].zip, which contains ROM.
Install ROM
Back to the $OUT directory on your computer-- you should see a file that looks something like:
Code:
cm-10-20120718-UNOFFICIAL-***.zip
Here *** is the phone codename
Now you can flash the ...zip file above as usual via recovery mode. (Be sure you have backed up any previous installation before trying your new build.)

Read the Below Command Before Asking question regarding Device tree : Credit @speed_bot
HTML:
#include
#include /ps my own header/
main()
{
int device tree,rom;
for((device==1) || (device tree =1))
printf("you can build a rom");
else
printf("you cant :P");
}

The issue with guides like these is they are specific to one version of Ubuntu. I successfully build Android on gentoo, which has about as little in common with Ubuntu as possible. Hence we prefer to go for guides which, where possible, teach the reasoning, rather than the method.
For building CM, this might be worthwhile merging into the "how to build android from source" one?
Unfortunately this guide isn't usable for most people, as it relies on the hacksung build scripts, so you can only build for certain devices...
What might be better is a guide on using roomservice via lunch, to build for any device?

i said in starting This is based for Galaxy Note 1 But You can edit to make for your phone

I'd guess this is a step by step guide for people with this device as others have said and it is very specific. What would be useful is if you did it in steps and was more generic, say when you set up your environment you tell the reader to check for himself in device forums for a devs source code to be able to try. and if that is too difficult to explain then you may have to explain the principle for the people with little to no knowledge of building what they are doing instead of type this and paste that. great idea, but needs much improvement in actual teaching. also if someone had the knowledge to edit to make it for their own phones then they wouldn't need to use this guide in the first place.

Thanks for this nice guide! Thanks +1 for you! :good:

For some reason the CM repo isnt syncing in the folder I want it to.
Code:
mkdir ~/cm10
cd ~/cm10
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b jellybean
repo sync -j16
It just spits everything in the home directory (~/) and the working folder I wanted everything in (~/cm10) is empty.
Any idea what the hell I'm doing wrong?
Edit: Well I got it to sync in the folder I wanted it to finally. I had to
Code:
rm -rf ~/.repo
first before it would initialize in my cm10 folder. Absolutely bizarre...

@OP
You might wanna change "CopyPasta" to "Copy-Paste".

i made it for fun

Oh okay then. But to me, it seems a bit...err...unprofessional. No offense intended.

Isn't "apt" the "stock" package manager in (K)Ubuntu?

Assistance compiling Nexus 4 Rom

Hey all -
I've been trying for a couple days to build from the instructions at docs.omnirom.org/Build_for_mako without much success. I am able to sync the repository - it seems to download all the devices though and I'm a little confused at that.
I resync after adding the vendor blobs by adding the following to .repo/local_manifests/ (from the guide):
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
<project path="device/lge/mako-kernel" name="device/lge/mako-kernel" groups="device,mako" revision="refs/tags/android-4.3_r2.1_" />
</manifest>
Then I receive the following:
Code:
fatal: duplicate project device/lge/mako-kernel in /mnt/ddrive/android/omni/.repo/manifest.xml
This makes sense because the project is already in the .repo/manifest.xml
From there I try to execute the following from my repository.
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh; brunch mako
It runs for about 23 minutes, I don't get any errors, but I also don't get the installable .zip file.
Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask development questions.

Yep - sorry, I haven't been near a computer until now. I haven't tested out the rom yet, but it definitely generated a zip file ~ 155 mb, which doesn't seem wrong. Anyway, here's the post I stole from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=46661249&postcount=5

Hey all -
I've been trying for a couple days to build from the instructions at docs.omnirom.org/Build_for_mako without much success. I am able to sync the repository - it seems to download all the devices though and I'm a little confused at that.
I resync after adding the vendor blobs by adding the following to .repo/local_manifests/ (from the guide):
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
<project path="device/lge/mako-kernel" name="device/lge/mako-kernel" groups="device,mako" revision="refs/tags/android-4.3_r2.1_" />
</manifest>
Then I receive the following:
Code:
fatal: duplicate project device/lge/mako-kernel in /mnt/ddrive/android/omni/.repo/manifest.xml
This makes sense because the project is already in the .repo/manifest.xml
From there I try to execute the following from my repository.
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh; brunch mako
It runs for about 23 minutes, I don't get any errors, but I also don't get the installable .zip file.
Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask development questions.

My bad, I'm the one who edited part of the doc there, and i was fearing some confusion, definitely need a bit of rewrite, as i wrote that doc prior to roomservice.xml intergration.
Basically, if you are using an omni.dependencies file in the device folder, you don't need to include mako kernel dependencies in local_manifest.xml, but you will need to lunch breakfast and lunch prior to brunch to actually sync this branch.
If you are not using omni.dependencies, you should ignore the first part of the doc, and only use the second part, with title "deprecated".
You should actually delete roomservice.xml if you're not using it to sync, or else you would have the problem you currently have.
In other terms, keep only that part
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
<remote name="github" fetch="https://github.com/" />
<project name="android_kernel_lge_mako" path="kernel/lge/mako" remote="omnirom" revision="android-4.3"/>
</manifest>
in a local_manifest.xml in your .repo/local_manifests directory, and delete the roomservice.xml file which is useless until you use an omni.dependencies file.
Also delete the changes you made out of local_manifest.xml, rule is only one declaration per branch
The so called blobs ( i didn't write that part) are actually not part of that repo, you could add themuppets repo for mako in your local_manifest.xml, for legal reasons, i couldn't include it in Omni's wiki.
Hope this will solve your problem, will try to edit the doc tomorrow to allow roomservice usage.

thanks a lot! I figured that all made more sense for those that were more experienced ROM developers. I would rather use the also stuff and not rely on cm blobs. I'm building for educational purposes - I'd like to make some tweaks here and there, so I want it as close to what the omni nightlies will be when they arrive.
Thanks for your explanation and documenting all that you do! I've been leaching off ROM developers for years and want to join in and help out.

You're welcome, and you can actually ignore part of my previous post, I just fully edited the doc, now everything is using roomservice.xml and omni.dependencies, so all mako's files get synced when you launch brunch mako, only themuppets repo can be added manually in local_manifest.xml in your .repo/local_manifests directory.
Sorry for the delay in a proper doc, got quite busy, and had little time do write something accurate.

I'm sorry - I am still not getting a zip file when I follow the steps on the wiki.
I sync the repo using the instructions,
Code:
repo sync -j1
It completes, I don't make any changes to the repo. I run the build
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh
brunch mako
It seems to complete without any errors. I do see complaints that I don't have an omni.dependencies file. Do I need to manually create that? I really want the purest rom - nothing special.

I think you have to create it, but I'm not perfectly sure..anyone else?

No. If you don't get a zip in your out folder, you've got a build error.

OK, that helps, I will comb through the output and see if I can find out what I'm missing. Thanks!

You may need to cherry pick from gerrit to get it to build right
Also, here's what it will look like if your build is successful

Sweet thanks guys! I got it building, I somehow missed that I needed to do breakfast before I did a sync and build.

[ROM] Unofficial CyanogenMod 12.1 after droping nightlies

Hi folks,
i want to share with my selfcompiled CM 12.1 nighlies after cm switch peregrine to CM13.
Some people like me dont update so quick but also want the last android security patches for CM 12.1
This is my first selfcompiled rom, it is works for me, i can give no support, i am no programmer, i am only put some sripts on my computer
So, if you brake your phone or something else it is your fault.
It is compiled with help docker container from michael_ch, release 0.30
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59811186&postcount=1734
git clone https://github.com/stucki/docker-cyanogenmod.git
cd docker-cyanogenmod
./run.sh
# Inside the container, run these commands:
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm-12.1
touch .repo/local_manifests/motorola-msm8226.xml
# Edit the file and paste contents from below
# Repeat the following commands whenever you want to make a new build:
repo sync -j 16

Indeed it was excellent of you bro, there are some of us that are not supported by the cm13 and this is a wonderful option.

Nice. Pls can you post results from Stagefright Detector (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zimperium.stagefrightdetector) and VTS for Android (http://www.appbrain.com/app/vts-for-android/com.nowsecure.android.vts)?

[GUIDE] Build LineageOS 14.1

Hi there!
I'm receiving some pm about users that want to learn how to build LineageOS for the Galaxy Note 4 (snapdragon), so here is a quick guide:
Only supported device for now are trltexx/trltedt (N910F/N910G) and trltetmo/trltecan (N910T/N910W8)
I suggest to use a LTS version of ubuntu, in this guide I'll be using Ubuntu 16.04
Let's start with a bit of cleaning:
Code:
sudo apt-get remove openjdk-* icedtea-* icedtea6-*
Install java8:
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:openjdk-r/ppa
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install openjdk-8-jdk
Install build tools:
Code:
sudo apt-get install git ccache automake lzop bison gperf build-essential zip curl zlib1g-dev zlib1g-dev:i386 g++-multilib python-networkx libxml2-utils bzip2 libbz2-dev libbz2-1.0 libghc-bzlib-dev squashfs-tools pngcrush schedtool dpkg-dev liblz4-tool make optipng maven
Install repo:
Code:
mkdir ~/bin && curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo && chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
Edit ~/.bashrc (in this exaple I'm using gedit to do it):
Code:
gedit ~/.bashrc
Add those 2 lines at the bottom of the file (we are going to add also ccache to speed up our build time):
Code:
export PATH=~/bin:$PATH
export USE_CCACHE=1
Save it, close gedit and run:
Code:
source ~/.bashrc
Let's create some folders where we'll be doing the magic:
Code:
mkdir ~/android && cd ~/android
mkdir lineageos && cd lineageos
Initialize the local repo and download the source:
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/LineageOS/android.git -b cm-14.1
repo sync --force-sync
It'll take quite some time, depends on your internet connection.
Once it's done downloading and checking out the files:
Code:
cd .repo
mkdir local_manifests && cd local_manifests
Now create a new file in this folder, name it "roomservice.xml" and add this into it:
For trltexx/trltedt:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
<project name="underscoremone/android_kernel_samsung_trlte" path="kernel/samsung/trlte" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" />
<project name="underscoremone/android_device_samsung_trlte-common" path="device/samsung/trlte-common" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" />
<project name="underscoremone/android_device_samsung_trltexx" path="device/samsung/trltexx" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" />
<project name="underscoremone/proprietary_vendor_samsung_trlte" path="vendor/samsung" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" />
<project name="LineageOS/android_device_samsung_qcom-common" path="device/samsung/qcom-common" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" />
<project name="LineageOS/android_external_stlport" path="external/stlport" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" />
<project name="LineageOS/android_device_qcom_common" path="device/qcom/common" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" />
</manifest>
For trltetmo/trltecan:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
<project name="underscoremone/android_kernel_samsung_trlte" path="kernel/samsung/trlte" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" />
<project name="underscoremone/android_device_samsung_trlte-common" path="device/samsung/trlte-common" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" />
<project name="fat-tire/android_device_samsung_trltetmo" path="device/samsung/trltetmo" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" />
<project name="underscoremone/proprietary_vendor_samsung_trlte" path="vendor/samsung" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" />
<project name="LineageOS/android_device_samsung_qcom-common" path="device/samsung/qcom-common" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" />
<project name="LineageOS/android_external_stlport" path="external/stlport" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" />
<project name="LineageOS/android_device_qcom_common" path="device/qcom/common" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" />
</manifest>
Now go back to the root of the source ("lineageos" folder) and repo sync again
Code:
cd ../..
repo sync
It'll now download the specific repositories for your device.
Then run
for trltexx/trltedt
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh && brunch trltexx
or for trltetmo/trltecan
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh && brunch trltetmo
And your build will start.
Once done you'll find your flashable rom.zip file in out/target/product/trlte**/
Congratulations you've successfully compiled LineageOS 14.1 for your device.
Remember to "make clean" every now and then.
------
Sometimes you'll get some errors, try to google the error and if you can not find a solution ask for help here at xda.
------
Hopefully I didn't forget anything.. if you have any trouble following this guide reply to this thread; myself or someone else will try to help you as soon as possible.

If you like to have the keyboard with the extra numbers row add this (before "</manifest>") to your roomservice.xml:
Code:
<remove-project name="LineageOS/android_packages_inputmethods_LatinIME" />
<project name="underscoremone/android_packages_inputmethods_LatinIME" path="packages/inputmethods/LatinIME" remote="github" revision="_cm-14.1" />
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you want to include su to your builds you have to run
Code:
export WITH_SU=true
before starting the build.
If you want to always include it you can add the same line to your .bashrc (remember to run "source ~/.bashrc" after you modify .bashrc)

Hello,
First of all thank you for sharing this guide.
I haven't yet compiled with success but so far one of the errors I've encountered is that i need to include the following in my local manifest:
Code:
<project name="LineageOS/android_hardware_samsung" path="hardware/samsung" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" />
or else I'm getting an error about missing macloader.h
Running a compile now so i will return once that finished

Yep, you're right; I've missed it. I've updated the op.
Edit:
Actually I thought it was going to be downloaded automatically because it is included in the dependencies of "android_device_samsung_qcom-common".. maybe I'm wrong. Anyway I've added it to the guide's trltexx.xml, you may want to be aware that we still need "android_packages_resources_devicesettings" "android_packages_apps_FlipFlap" and "android_hardware_sony_timekeep", they should be automatically added to your roomservice.xml (because they are included in our lineage.dependencies) but if it doesn't happen you probably want to add it to your trltexx.xml.

How are things different if I want to build for TMO? How much disk space you need?

I've updated the op with the changes needed for trltetmo/trltecan.
You need approximately 60gb, but I would go with more if you can.

hi can you show me how to build for the n910w8 ?

Okay so i finally got a working build compiled, got a lot of issues with java compiler and javadoc using too much memory,
if anyone is interested it is fixed by setting
Code:
$ export ANDROID_JACK_VM_ARGS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -XX:+TieredCompilation -Xmx4G"
Just edit the 4G in the end to the amount of ram you would allow the java compiler to run, be aware that you would still need about an additional of 4,5 gigs of ram available other than what you specify here, at least that was the case for me, since the java compiler doesn't clear out when other stuff is processed during the compile (like c, c++ and javadoc compilation)

I don't know, when I run brunch it doesn't create the roomservice.xml file, i think that it gets done with the breakfast command, but that would create instances in my roomservice.xml that conflicted with the trltexx repos pulled from another source from the other local manifest.
So i ended up with this local manifest (i.e. trltexx.xml)
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
<project path="device/samsung/trlte-common" name="Diload/android_device_samsung_trlte-common" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" />
<project path="kernel/samsung/trlte" name="Diload/android_kernel_samsung_trlte" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" />

<project name="LineageOS/android_hardware_sony_timekeep" path="hardware/sony/timekeep" remote="github" revision="cm-14.1" />
</manifest>
And it is now running on my phone

Well done @Diload :good:

If you want build for trltecan (N910W8) follow this guide and make the changes described for trltetmo. trltetmo and trltecan, like trltexx and trltedt can share the same ROM.

hi! I how about NOTE 4 DUOS N9100 which has two sim? Now only one sim works，wifi and another sim donot work. how solve it？Thanks!

Nice clear info!
Thanks!
Especially the part about local manifest, other guides I've read in past never touch on that part. Thank you.

N910V never gets any love
ok so what would I have to do to make one strictly for the N910V ? id just change it to trltevzw ?

For trltevzw you may want to have a look at the verzion forum and ask the recognized developers that are building LineageOS to share their source. Good luck with that!

This is probably not the right place for such a discussion as this is about building LineageOS yourself, based on the the guide that _mone has very kindly provided. I suggest opening a new thread yourself inviting discussion/advice, or maybe look around the various LineageOS dev threads to see what people are saying. The known issues / missing functionality is pretty well documented, but I'm sure people will be happy let you know in a thread where it is appropriate

Trying to compile LineageOS 18.1 for discontinued SM-T713

I've been following the instrucsions from here:

@thefanum,
While it's nice to follow the provided instructions, one of the main problems with them is that they get out of date if not updated periodically.
Specifically these commits made March 14, 2023.
https://review.lineageos.org/q/git-lfs
require that git-lfs be installed on the host computer now otherwise the compiler will stop and webview.apk won't get installed properly in the rom.
So if you are running a Debian style distro, then you need
Bash:
# install git-lfs
sudo apt install git-lfs
# cd into LineageOS code directory
cd ~/18.1
# tell build system we have git-lfs
repo init --git-lfs
# get rid of old webview
rm -rf external/chromium-webview/prebuilt/*
rm -rf .repo/projects/external/chromium-webview/prebuilt/*.git
rm -rf .repo/project-objects/LineageOS/android_external_chromium-webview_prebuilt_*.git
# sync everything
repo sync --force-sync
Compiling the next version of Android always requires some code changes. That is, using 17.1 code and trying to build 18.1 will never work.
I've already done 99.9% of the work for T713 because the T813 and T713 share the same common code trees. Since there were no code changes from 17.1 to 18.1 for the device specific tree
https://github.com/retiredtab/android_device_samsung_gts210vewifi
and assuming none are needed for the gts28vewifi tree, then you can use the 17.1 existing tree with MY manifest from
https://github.com/retiredtab/LineageOS-build-manifests/tree/main/18.1
That is, your version of my 181-gts210vewifi.xml should look like

In theory, this should yield an equivalent 18.1 T713 build with the same functionality as my 18.1 T813 build.
I suggest you follow my 18.1 build specific instructions at
https://github.com/retiredtab/Linea...ob/main/18.1/181-gts210vewifi-build-guide.txt
One person on xda has followed them and created their own 18.1 T813 private builds.
I'll also make 3 suggestions during your build phase.
1. Make an "eng" build so that adb logcat starts right away so you can see log messages on your console. Once everything works, you can then build the "userdebug".
Bash:
# j4 means 4 threads. If you have 6 core, 12 thread CPU, then change this to 12.
TARGET_BUILD_TYPE=debug TARGET_BUILD_VARIANT=eng make -j4 bacon
2. My publicly released 18.1 T813 is selinux enforcing. There's no guarantee that the rules I wrote will work 100% with the T713 so you should revert/undo this commit
https://github.com/retiredtab/andro...mmit/687691a81e028d002919f9f1d069b5b0c9d72512
so that the build is permissive. Once everything works, then you can enforce the build.
3. You will need at least 16GB DRAM to make this 18.1 64 bit build. The more the better.

The above error is because you are trying to use the 17.1 tree and compiling 18.1 and you are not picking up the 18.1 tree at
https://github.com/LineageOS/android_hardware_samsung/commits/lineage-18.1
If you look at the March 18, 20 and 21, 2021 changes, that's where they added libperfmgr.

@thefanum,
While it's nice to follow the provided instructions, one of the main problems with them is that they get out of date if not updated periodically.
Specifically these commits made March 14, 2023.
https://review.lineageos.org/q/git-lfs
require that git-lfs be installed on the host computer now otherwise the compiler will stop and webview.apk won't get installed properly in the rom.
So if you are running a Debian style distro, then you need
Bash:
# install git-lfs
sudo apt install git-lfs
# cd into LineageOS code directory
cd ~/18.1
# tell build system we have git-lfs
repo init --git-lfs
# get rid of old webview
rm -rf external/chromium-webview/prebuilt/*
rm -rf .repo/projects/external/chromium-webview/prebuilt/*.git
rm -rf .repo/project-objects/LineageOS/android_external_chromium-webview_prebuilt_*.git
# sync everything
repo sync --force-sync
Compiling the next version of Android always requires some code changes. That is, using 17.1 code and trying to build 18.1 will never work.
I've already done 99.9% of the work for T713 because the T813 and T713 share the same common code trees. Since there were no code changes from 17.1 to 18.1 for the device specific tree
https://github.com/retiredtab/android_device_samsung_gts210vewifi
and assuming none are needed for the gts28vewifi tree, then you can use the 17.1 existing tree with MY manifest from
https://github.com/retiredtab/LineageOS-build-manifests/tree/main/18.1
That is, your version of my 181-gts210vewifi.xml should look like

You're the man! Thanks so much for your help here.
I'm on it!
