Anybody going to build a 6.0 AOSP ROM? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Android Development

So the title says it all. Will anybody building a 6.0 stock AOSP ROM for the Sprint S4? It's safe to say a 6.0 GPE update will not be coming.
I've looked into building one but I don't have enough exp to do so. Should be doable with CM device and vendor files?
Would be great if somebody starts this on github or something

Why are you opening a thread in a development section to ask a question?

If your post has a question mark in it, you most likely need to post your thread in the Q&A Section

granted, you did not use any question marks, but had you used correct punctuation, there would be.
Consider the parts of a rom you want to change. THEN look for answers or tutorials regarding those individual pieces. There is no one quide for creating a rom, but the tons of threads with tutorials for individual components that make up a rom will ultimately guide you to everything you could want to do.
i can't remember the exact name for it right now, but there was a thread about this a while back about starting to mess around with making roms. also there is a thread about unpacking and re-packing boot images which will probably some system understanding as well. I personally do not know how to go about making a rom from scratch, but i think they may have something about how to compile the source here or here. its worth a read anyways i guess.
people on here are dicks and hate to see someone wanting to learn something. like really hate it, with a passion.
being insulted from the guy that released a rom and didn't even know that it had to be signed (tested how)
Moved. Enough flaming.
It's like saying how do I build my computer from scratch. What do you really want? A how to guide that somehow already knows which type of ROM you want to cook, what you are planning to do with it, and teaches you how to use linux, java, and android all at the same time?

All wrong sectionry aside, you didn't find a thread or a guide because there isn't one.. It's something you'll kind of figure out when you're ready. It sounds like I'm being a total elitist d*ck, but I'm not. Knowing how to create a rom from scratch is a culmination of knowledge and research over a long time. If someone posted a step-by-step guide it still wouldn't tell you what you need to know.
thanks for the ACTUAL helpful comments guys i'll take a browse thru forums bit more for the stuff i wanna change\edit learn

Is it possible for the camera on android 2.x to wok?

I don't know how to make a rom, but I do know it's a hard job. I really want to enjoy the android 2.x, but all the cooked roms, no matter 2.1 or 2.2, do not have a working camera. I have to use it, so I just want to know if there is a possibility for me to use android 2.X?
No offense, but you should be banned... before posting you should check other threads!!!

Well yes, it can be done to get it work.
But so far, none of the coders who makes roms for tattoo doesnt know how to do it!

Thats because you REALLY didnt look lol
I really dont know why you are so upset, because I have read most of the threads posted since I got my phone last month. And what's the point to post a thread posted on purpose? I posted it just because I want to know sth I don't know. If I really make a mistake, you can ignore my thread and leave it to the buddies who are willing to answer my question. Thank you for your cooperation.

Wow, your thread title and post seem to somehow lack the most important info to whatever you're trying to ask. Might want to re-read what you posted & edit, and get this moved to the right section.
Plus I think this is in the wrong section

[Q] Is there a list of roms that are updateable thru ROM MGR clockwork?

Im sorry but I Didnt see a thread dedicated to this feature. I apologize in advance if this has been covered elsewhere.
Y!S
All roms are flashed via CWM unless they say to do it differently in their thread. CM7 is about the only one that's not done this way.
Nobody gives install instructions anymore since it should be common knowledge if you did your research.
Also, this is NOT a development question. We have a Q&A section for these types of questions.
all custom roms come with CWM built into the kernel.
once you have a custom rom you DONT USE rom manager anymore.
also this is the DEVELOPMENT section.
DO NOT POST QUESTIONS HERE!!!
questions go in Q&A

you guys are misunderstanding his question, ROM manager is capable of sending out OTA's for individual ROM's if the ROM creator implements this feature. as far as I know, there are yet to be any ROM's that use this in the Captivate section, though please tell me if I'm wrong. CM7 will use this feature once it's capable of using ROM manager through a properly functioning param.ko
as for you two, no need to be so aggressive/rude. you didn't answer his question properly and were a bit extreme in your judgment toward him. but as for you OP, they are correct in that this isn't truly related to development and is more suited to "General" or "Q&A" from now on.
my point was nobody uses rom manager after stock anymore.
if someone cant properly post, they wont get a full complete answer

Hey TRusselo you have gone beyond making it known that I posted in the wrong section but no matter how I look at your answers you still come across as a big fat jerk. There isnt any need whatsoever for you to post that.. and then to come back and repeat yourself with another entry saying the SAME thing and MAINTAINING the attitude.. you got my attention.
Kaik541 did answer my question. I was wondering if any devs have used this feature in rom manager. For over the air updates.
As to the reason why I posted in the DEVs section was because i thought that it was a development question. ROMS updated over the air thru ROM MANAGER is implemented by DEVELOPERS. It stands to reason why i have not seen any notes in any DEVELOPERS release and that is apparently no DEVELOPERS are using this feature. I hope that I made it understood as to WHY I posted in the dev section. I am now more familiar with the rules so I do beg your pardon for posting in the wrong place.
Nightly builds that can be updated over the air seems like it would really be something that a DEV would utilize with all the tweeks contently done to these roms. I for one look forward to having such a useful tool.

Nightly builds aren't considered updates. They are made so the flash happy people have something else to play with and test for the devs. They aren't meant for everyone to use as DD's. Utilizing this feature for nightlie's would end up with TONS of questions from newbs that don't know how to fix what they just did.
This has been brought up a few times and to be honest with all the possible issues that could come across from OTA updates like flashing a bad file cause you lost connection for a split sec and didn't notice, I wouldn't use it. The first att OTA update proved this. Thousands of bricks, then it was released by Kris update. Alot less bricks.

TWRP 2.6

After all this discussion about TWRP incompatibility with 4.3 roms, I decided to go to the Team Win site and see. It seems that TWRP 2.6 is tweaked to work with new roms, but when I did a search to find it for the Exhibit, nothing came up. I guess we are meant to use a version written for another device, but I do not know which one I should use. If anyone could point me to the correct download, I would greatly appreciate it.

You won't be able to use a different devices version. Just have to wait until someone finds time to compile it for this phone. I haven't had any luck yet building for my tablet, or I would give it a go.
