[Q] Build from samsung source code

Believe this should be question for all newbee as well.
Downloaded new source code from opensource.samsung.com
get all source and whole environment setup from android.com
follow readme in samsumg's source code so I'd merge with android generic source
After make, the output system.img is only 50mb. Compared with samsung's system.img 250mb. After extract, there are significant differences.
apps, bin, frameworks, csc.. are much different.
Anyone had idea how to build correct samsung's image?
I created new launcher and lockscreen, it works on emulator, but cannot port to samsung Galaxy S because of environment setup, your help step by step will be very helpful, thanks!!
Hi buddy,
Do you know what’s the problem?
I meet the same problem about compiling.
The system.img only 58M. I cann’t run the image with emulator.
I don’t know how to solve it.
I guess your problem is that you don't get the drivers on the sgs.
Many are not open source.
So you can't build a firmware from scratch.
The open source from Samsung is only the kernel.
What you need is to import all missing stuff in the firmware you did compile, but you will face a bigger problem to change all places that using the missing stuff.
Sent from GT-I9000 jpo. My own kernel for z4mod and with 342MB Ram

Screen Casting/ScreenSharing updated [6/28]

I have released a screen casting application in the Android Market using SL4A.
It allows the user to mirror their screen on their laptop or desktop over wifi.
I have attached the apk and the python script needed to run the application.
This is an open source project hosted on google code. Feedback and help improving the performance/additional features is WELCOME!!!!
Support for the X10, Atrix, and NexusS is ready out of the box because those are phones I was able to test it with.
The Linux desktop script needs to be downloaded from the project website on google code.
Link to project
http://code.google.com/p/groundwork/
Link to the market apk
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.ground.work&feature=search_result
Ver5 is now out with the ability to stream files, only avi and mp3 appear to work for now
Very goood idea, any chance of a Windows version or is it already compatible
--XDA-App--4--Nexus-S-
Unfortunately I work on a linux Desktop. Since Windows also has ffmpeg it is already compatible all that is needed is to change the linux script GroundWork.py into a batch file.
I am hoping for help or contributors on that end. After I implement all the features I have in my head I will port it to Mac and then Windows.(Unless someone beats me to it )
I may attempt to do that, If i have your permission
--XDA-App--4--Nexus-S-
go ahead. If you can post your changes here I can add it to the project code. and give you credit.Just put your name etc in the code.
any intrest
bump. I need feedback

PHP script to app

Hello,
Can someone help me with building an app for a PHP software to a website ? I guess using WebView helps. What about files required and their hierarchy ? Is there any open source platform which I can use as base to build apps ?
PS : I use Android Studio
You can use REST
When we're working with an App that needs to comunicate with an external software, i always think on use REST. You can see this stack: stackoverflow.com /questions/8267928/android-rest-client-sample for some information.
Another thing... What do you mean with "What about files required and their hierarchy" ? Are you saying about PHP files require ?

Compile Samsung Open Source

I am trying to compile the Samsung Open Source file located here: http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=g900a. The one I am looking to compile is the OF2 file. However, I am having trouble building the platform file. Does anyone know how to do it or could offer some help?

[Lineage OS] Build instructions

I am trying to make my own build of Lineage OS so that I can learn more about howto enable I2C devices so that they are available in SensorManager.
I browsed through the repos at https://github.com/lineage-rpi but could not find instructions on how to perform a build from scratch.
The repo looks like it is the right place to go and it seems like android_local_manifest/manifest_bcrm_rpi.xml has all the right links to the other repos (kernel source, proprietary and android_device). However I do not see any reference to the android source code. Or do I need to get the android source code from source.android.com?
Can someone share the "repo" commands so that I can pull all of the source code? I will work out howto build it form there.
