Aokp is aosp. Android open source project. Aokp is just the name. Just a rom based (kanged on Google ics and other aosp from source like cm9/cna

No.. pure android is vanilla..
Aosp like any other open source project adds improvements and twraks to pure android source which is what aokp, cm9 cna do. making them aosp . aokp just a name...

so in short
AOSP - Basic Android Source Project (no Customizations) like Oxygen
AOKP - Improved versions of AOSP like CyanogenMod??

and what's the difference between aosp roms and stock roms, besides e.g. preinstalled samsung apps?

aosp = android open source project
aokp = android open kang project (link https://sites.google.com/site/androidopenkangproject/)

It's not really about the Samsung/Sense apps more about the whole "layer" that i.e. Samsung/HTC put over the basic rom, (touchwiz and sense in the case of samsung/htc).
So if you'd take those layers/apps away you would just have the basis which is just AOSP.

[Q] [JB AOSP][How to compile to Captivate?}

My question is where can I find a guide for compile for AOSP JB ROM for Captivate?
I do have some knowledge in packaging ROM to a zip file.
I saw that there is an AOSP ROM called [JB 4.1.1] Monfro Aosp, but I couldn't find any open source repository for that.
I'm not looking for CM or AOKP, but merely AOSP.

The guide on the cm wiki will be close to the same, you just need to use the aosp repo instead of the cm one. Where is the aosp repo? I have no idea. Google is your friend, bout all i can say.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S I9000 PDroid ROM?

I have been looking on your site for a good 6 hours for a ROM that supports PDroid can anyone give me a link to one I have a galaxy s i9000! Thank you for your attention.

I don't think any of the roms natively support PDroid.
I have never used PDroid, but from its descriptions it seems that you can patch any AOSP rom yourself.

Aosp?

Pardon my noobieness Aosp? I tried patching a stock deodexed rom like the description says but when I flash the patch it gets stuck in bootloop. Any tips?

Stock deodexed is not AOSP. AOSP means android open source project. Stock means rom made by Samsung that contains proprietary codes. You want to use roms such as cyanogen mod and android open kang project AOSP.

Could you maybe get me an aosp rom that supports pdroid or an already patched one? Please and thanks for your help.

Just look inside the development section. Any thing that says android open kang or open source is AOSP. Cyanogen mod is also AOSP. None of the are patched so far as I know

By "custom" you mean based on stock roms or AOSP-derived?

both
depending on what an developer wants to build

What will the impact of this project be on areas that have been problems for aosp projects such as hardware drivers ?

1 kernel to rule them all means that 1 hal fixed in 1 device works on all devices
1 patch merged in kernel to fix something fixes same problem on all devices

I hope I'm not presumptuous or wrong: will it come with CWM and/or TWRP recovery versions?
Many thanks.

this is just source code so depends on developers on what android fork is used

Unless I'm mistaken, the sony source doesn't work with pure AOSP. All AOSP or derivatives roms use the CM android_kernel_sony_msm8974pro or forks of it.
My question is thus the following: is this kernel source compatible with AOSP or like "kernel-copyleft", only with stock rom derivatives?
My custom kernel works on the latter, but I need to use the "msm8974pro" trees for pure AOSP.
Unless I'm missing something?

Can't boot
@jerpelea I've compiled AOSP Lollipop and it boots fine. I've compiled the kernel from 3.5.2.2 branch of the unified kernel source and successfully made zImage. I've combined the zImage with the resulting dtb and the ramdisk from the AOSP build. I can't get the device to boot for some reason. It's stuck at the Sony boot logo. Did I miss a step ? I've searched online but couldn't get enough help about this.
Tried the same with Kitkat too but same result. Doesn't go past the sony boot logo.
UPDATE
Got it to work The command line argument in the guide provided has android boot device as qcom whereas the one compiled during AOSP has it as "shinano" Took me 1 build to understand this Back to work again

hi All
Busy weeks ....months ...
Progress so far
- unified 3.4 kernel is stable for daily use and community tweaking
As some of you have already seen we have started work on comunity 3.10 unified kernel
This kernel is not finished and not stable but is an invitation for developers to joyn, test and improve a kernel built "by community for community"

build guide has been updated for easy reading
http://developer.sonymobile.com/kno...evices/how-to-build-and-flash-a-linux-kernel/

hi all
kernel 3.10 is progressing nice
it can soon be used on SONY AOSP Project
master branch on devices uses 3.10 kernel
l-mr0 branch uses 3.4 kernel
br

hi all
3.10 is progressing nice
at this point can be used for L MR1 and shows good battery savings
more enhancements and bugfixes will come soon

Hi @jerpelea, which of the branches should be used for the 3.10 kernel?

I ll be appreciated that the unified kernel can support d6563.

Device Tree for building AOSP

Can anyone upload the AOSP device tree for sprout to compile AOSP based ROM?
I'd like to build a proper Chroma ROM (the one currently built doesn't have supersu built in, no bootanimation, etc)
I cannot seem to build with CM's device tree, I've been messing with it all around to no avail
Thanks.

I hope this discussion help you have a look at it. And this too http://stackoverflow.com/questions/29077612/build-aosp-rom-with-cyanogenmod-device-files

Thanks, I finally figured out everything, AOSP doesn't do inline kernel building like CM so I need to make sure Android.mk exists on the kernel folder. That exactly what my problem is.

Happy to help...i hope we see numbsr of quality aosp builds from you.Aosp roms on this device has been a bit buggy uptill now.Best luck buddy.
