Samsung Opensource

Does anyone know what the files from http://opensource.samsung.com/ are?
Can you build the stock rom that way? It doesn't seem like you can, i downloaded it and tried to build it following the instructions but i didn't have much luck
did anyone else try to compile it?
the readme file
Code:
1. Get android open source.
: version info - Android gingerbread 2.3.3
( Download site : http://source.android.com )
2. Overwrite files that you want to build.
[...]
3. Add the following lines at the end of build/target/board/generic/BoardConfig.mk
[...]
4. make
- ./build.sh user

First of all, you are in the wrong section. All questions should go to Q&A section.
Secondly, that site is only for Kernel Source codes I believe (Correct me if I'm wrong) and I guess, you won't get their ROM source codes.

sorry for posting in the wrong section
i'm not sure it's just the kernel, there;s also a platform archive there

the platform folder contains convincing folders

The platform folder contains a small subset of the ROM, in fact the instructions instruct you to download the official source code from source.android.com. There isn't any proprietary Samsung software (i.e.: Touchwiz).
With those files you should be able to compile a pure AOSP ROM without Google proprietary apps (Play Store, GTalk, ...).

[TOOL][DEV]MyFirstRom v1.0.0.0 by GG2SD #myfirstrom

Hello everyone users, today I want to present my latest creation: MyFirstrom.
Requirements:
Code:
-Microsoft. NET Framework 4.5.1 available: [URL=http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9839392] HERE [/URL]
-Java JDK 8 available: [URL=http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html] HERE [/URL]
-Android SDK Tools available: [URL=http://dl.google.com/android/installer_r22.6.2-windows.exe] HERE [/URL]
This tool works on Windows, Linux and Mac OS (linux and mac I have not tested it yet, but to do so would run Wine, as it was developed for Windows, and have the extension *. Exe).
Here are the main features:
Code:
[COLOR="Red"][SIZE="5"]FEATURES:[/SIZE][/COLOR]
-Decompile Apk
-Rebuilding Apk
-Sign Apk
-Create un-sign zip
-Create signed zip
-Edit build.prop
-Edit the Update-Script
-Create tweaks / scripts to be included in the folder init.d
-Add Apk to rom and update.zip
Here are the screenshots:

}
Set development environment:
JAVA:
Code:
Download and Install the JDK 8 on the link above, open the Control Panel and look for "Advanced System", open it and click on "Environment Variables ..."
find the path variable and add these lines to the end:
"C:\Program Files\Java\jre8\bin;"
[COLOR="Red"][SIZE="5"]WARNING:[/SIZE][/COLOR]
if you have a 32-bit system you will need to change the lines and add these in place of those:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre8\bin;"
SDK-PLATFORMS:
Code:
Create a folder in the path "C:\" and call it "Android", install the sdk-platforms and use this folder as the installation folder.
Open the environment variables and add these to the string variable path:
"C:\Android\platform-tools";
without the quotes.
Now that we have set the development environment can run the installer and install the tool.
For those wishing to publish a custom rom created with this tool will add to the post title or the hashtag #myfirstrom #mfr.
I hope this tool will serve to many of you, especially those who are beginners.

Hello!
Good thing for starters (aka noobs/newbies/etc). Maybe there will be danger of ROM flooding in Dev thread, but still good
Best regards.

Cant start SDK Manager right off the bat!!!! What a horrible IDE!

Since this is a Android Studio specific problem..... I'm posting here....
Just did a first install of Android Studio and cant even open the SDK Manager right off the bat. What gives?

In case the above image doesnt show it reads....
Cannot launch SDK manager.
Output:
'"f:\android\sdk\tools\lib\\find_java64.exe" -s' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
ERROR: No suitable Java found. In order to properly use the Android Developer
Tools, you need a suitable version of Java JDK installed on your system.
We recommend that you install the JDK version of JavaSE, available here:
If you already have Java installed, you can define the JAVA_HOME environment
variable in Control Panel / System / Avanced System Settings to point to the
JDK folder.

Notice the double slashes "\\find_java64.exe". This is an error (invalid path) that it is obviously generated incorrectly.
JAVA_HOME = "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_45"
PATH = "C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath;%JAVA_HOME%; ...... etc ..... "
:crying:

fixed temporarily.....
had to make the following changes to android.bat in order to get SDK Manager to start.....
Change:
Code:
rem Check we have a valid Java.exe in the path.
set java_exe=
call lib\find_java.bat
if not defined java_exe goto :EOF
set jar_path=lib\sdkmanager.jar;lib\swtmenubar.jar
rem Set SWT.Jar path based on current architecture (x86 or x86_64)
for /f "delims=" %%a in ('"%java_exe%" -jar lib\archquery.jar') do set swt_path=lib\%%a
To:
Code:
rem Check we have a valid Java.exe in the path.
set java_exe=java.exe
set jar_path=lib\sdkmanager.jar;lib\swtmenubar.jar
rem Set SWT.Jar path based on current architecture (x86 or x86_64)
rem this fails..... for /f "delims=" %%a in ('"%java_exe%" -jar lib\archquery.jar') do set swt_path=lib\%%a
set swt_path=lib\x86_64
..... pathetic ...... its 2015.... no one should have to do this... come on google.

Sounds like the Environment Variable isn't set up yet.

Android TV 13, blue screen after flashing GApps

Hey there!
Today I decided to turn an old Raspberry Pi 4B 8GB I had lying around into an Android TV box. I used this guide to install it, and it installed smoothly. There were no apps on it whatsoever, so I wanted to download the Play Store to download at least YouTube. After a bit of searching on the LineageOS website I came across a link to the Android TV 13 GApps (from here). I flashed them as the instructions stated on the website with the image, however after finishing the setup I get a (fairly nice) picture instead of a regular home screen. What gives?! If possible, I would prefer to stay on ATV 13.

Exact file I downloaded
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: same issue on adrod 12
EDIT 2: seems to be an issue with the new version of MindTheGapps for ATV. downloading an older version worked perfectly

I have that same problem, anyone has done this right?

The method provided by TYK can solve this problem for you:
1. Download 7-Zip and Notepad++.
2. Open the MinTheGapps 13.0.0 .zip file with 7-Zip and drag out "update-binary".
3. Use Notepad++ to modify "update-binary" and confirm that it is in UNIX format.
4. Drag "update-binary" back into the .zip file (overwrite it).
Fix "update-binary":
Code:
...
ui_print "Copying files"
cp --preserve=a -r ./system/* "${SYSTEM_OUT}/"
if [ -n "$PRODUCT_BLOCK" ]; then
cp --preserve=a -r ./product/* /product
fi
if [ -n "$SYSTEM_EXT_BLOCK" ]; then
cp --preserve=a -r ./system_ext/* /system_ext
fi
##########
#Add:
##########
ui_print "Copying product files to ${SYSTEM_OUT}/product"
cp --preserve=a -r ./product/* "${SYSTEM_OUT}/product/"
ui_print "Copying system_ext files to ${SYSTEM_OUT}/system_ext"
cp --preserve=a -r ./system_ext/* "${SYSTEM_OUT}/system_ext/"
##########
rm -rf "${SYSTEM_OUT}/product/priv-app/TVLauncherNoGMS"
rm -rf "${SYSTEM_OUT}/product/priv-app/TVRecommendationsNoGMS"
rm -rf "${SYSTEM_OUT}/priv-app/PackageInstaller"
