ok, i'm trying to port and boot the AOSP source from google for 4.1.2 JB x86, first of all, i follow the next guide to build my own compiling machine http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2762390 but i download in the step 12 the repo of google AOSP (repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-4.1.2_r2.1 & repo sync)
Start the enviroment with: . build/envsetup.sh
and download download the source from motorola to get some propertary files http://sourceforge.net/projects/razr-i.motorola/files/LATAM/9.8.2I-50_SML-29/
now, the git have some instructions like you see in the README file inside the source, this say:
1. Create a workspace containing "vanilla" JB release from Google.

ou may need to apply the following change in build repo to prevent the build from aborting when unexpected user tag is found on some modules:

i'm trying to do this step, but nothings seems happen...
The second step says that all we need is overlaying the Motorola repos on top of the AOSP repos, but in the Terminal i don't know some commands ('cause always i work on Windows ).
i need just a little help in here, i'm tryin to compare both sources, but in windows i've a tool called WINMERGE, in linux i don't know if we have something like that. I don't wanna overlay the repos, i want to compare the files and re-write the AOSP source with some parts of the motosource and get AOSP software with motorola hardware working.
thks to all, sorry for my bad english, i don't use translator
I always used meld. Meld is an 2to3 way comparing tool, that compares folders (date), files (versions) and text. It is almost like winmerge, just a little bit different. U can look it up in the app store of whatever ubuntu/linux version you have.
As for the defferences between aosp and moto. There are a number of differences. The most can be located in the system/core where moto has changed the behavior of how init works and some x86 implementations (especially pixelflinger). The next BIG thing is the bionic (libc). It has many x86 implementations and i am not sure if u can overlay them without trouble into aosp source.
Good luck!

You're missing the android_device_sony_qcom-common repo. Go to github.com/cyanogenmod/android_device_sony_qcom-common and download it manually. Make sure to select the right branch for building CM10.1
Then extract to yourcmsourcedirectory/device/sony/qcom-common and try to build again.

CM team introduced some heavy changes to qcom-common a few months ago, and my bet is that these are responsible for your error. Probably building latest CM12 would work better. Use the git repos by @updateing and you're good to go.

Thanks for your friendly help.
there is no such kernel,device tree,vendor for my device.
I could build device tree via twrpbuilder tree generator,
but kernel cannot be found in opensource release center.
why am i need A605k? not F or FN or else?
that's because when i used A605FN recovery it has so many errors... and it makes me build twrp for A605K.
not for other models..
but.. i failed,
device tree built via twrpbuilder tree generator doesn't have omni.dependencies file
so, what do you guys think how can i fix those annoying things?
I know, this is not a question area, but i want to make Discussion with you guys to get a idea
Well if your trying to build a device tree and kernel source and vendor start with downloading android source in linux there are many great guides for this then download the sources for the A600F/FN or any other current model of the A600 then there will be a file in the folder for whichever source you downloaded that will allow you to pull resources from your phone like kernel recovery device vendor files ect.. use that and then import it to the same folder than try to build TWRP and test it to see if you get a working build if not then go back and try again their are many sources for learning how to compile twrp for devices that dont have it read those and try again.

I did find the kernel and source here: http://opensource.samsung.com/recep...menu_item=mobile&classification1=mobile_phone
(page 44 for SM-A605FN - A605FNXXU1ARD7)
I would like to build it myself, but my android development knowledge is limited (i do have a solid linux knowledge though).
Is this guide obsolete (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1943625)?
If yes, anyone knows where can i find an up-to-date one?
If not, any idea where BoardConfig.mk can be found?
Where can we find a guide on how to build a twrp? I would really like to learn how to do it

Warnings: this kernel has been tested on the TB-X605F (SDA450) only. It will not work for the:
TB-X605F (M10) released with the SDA429 chipset
TB-X605L (M10 LTE). This kernel is currently for the wifi variant only.
TB-X505F/L (M10 HD) or any of the other M10 variants that use the SDA429 chipset.
TB-X605FC (M10 FHD). See the opensource released by Lenovo. Note that the X605FC kernel is 4.9.112.
Introduction
On 4 June 2020, Lenovo released the kernel source for the TB-X605F/L.
Prior to that, this kernel was developed by porting the kernel source for the the P10 (TB-X705F) released by Lenovo in January 2019.
Current version is: 3.18.120 merged with CAFCAF LA.UM.5.5.r1-05300-8x96.0.
The update zip will load some modules. So backup the "System Image", "Vendor Image" and boot partitions with TWRP before loading this kernel.
For kernel developers
Lenovo have released the opensource for the TB-X705F (Smart Tab 10 wifi) dated 31 January 2019 at s000018_20180913_row. This kernel is based on that kernel source (3.18.71). The default config (YM_X605F_defconfig) is almost identical to the kernel config of the M10. Some of the main differences with the P10 source are:
removed the MM8013 chipset config. The P10 uses the MM8013 for battery stats etc. There is no MM8013 on the M10.
upgraded drivers for the primary autofocus camera.
set CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE to "n" - so kernel will load stock modules from any version. Thanks to @yener90 for the suggestion.
While Lenovo releases the (compiled) stock M10 kernel at 3.18.120, the P10 kernel opensource is 3.18.71. Great job Lenovo!
The source will build signed system modules, if you want them. If you want the wifi driver it's pronto_wlan.ko, compile with CONFIG_PRONTO_WLAN=m.
Features
This kernel compiles and runs. It seems to be stable.
Working:
- wifi
- bluetooth
- power charging (USB and dock)
- camera
- FM radio
- touchscreen (including DT2W)
- audio
- OTG
Known bugs
you tell me
Installation
I assume you have unlocked bootloader, TWRP and Magisk. If not, follow these instructions.
The update zip is packaged using AnyKernel3 by @osm0sis .
if you are still on stock ROM & kernel, backup "System Image", "Vendor Image" and boot partitions in TWRP. You only have to do this once, not everytime you load a new version of this kernel.
download update_X605F_kernel.zip and copy it to your sdcard/OTG
boot to TWRP and use "update" to update the zip file
check that the update was successful, then reboot
confirm the kernel is loaded. It should start with "3.18.120-X605F-YM":
Code:
X605F:/ $ uname -r
3.18.120-X605F-YM-xxx
To return to stock kernel, just restore the stock boot, system and vendor backups you made in TWRP. If that doesn't work, then you'll have to reload system ROM using LMSA.

Lenovo releases the stock M10 kernel at 3.18.120. However, the P10 kernel source is 3.18.71. This means that system modules and the wifi driver need to be re-compiled, signed and distributed with this kernel. This means that the /system and /vendor partitions need to be touched, not just the boot image.

Just disable the modules, the kernel wont build it anymore. It's also not urgently required.

Thanks for the neat suggestion.
I disabled signed module enforcement (CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE) so we can use stock modules. That means no need to update system or vendor partitions.
I left in *_SIG_ALL in the defconfig, so you can compile and sign modules if you really want to. But I haven't included any modules in the new update zip. If you've used the old version of the update zip, then restore stock boot, system and vendor images before using this new update zip.
I've released a new version. Main changes are:
rebased kernel to 3.18.120
merge CAF LA.UM.5.5.r1-05300-8x96.0
added DT2W
fixed "adb reboot". The rebase fixed it.
added a defconfig for LineageOS
included signed modules in zip file (including wlan)
I've updated the OP.
I've added a new (default) branch called msm-3.18.120 in the github repo: Yahoo-Mike/android_kernel_lenovo_x605f.
The camera auto-focus is still not working. I haven't looked at it. Lenovo have not released the source code. It looks like the P10 uses different cameras. The main camera is a hynix hi556 variant called: hi556_m10. I'll have a look at this soon. One of the ASUS Zenfone Max Pro (M1) variants uses the hi556. That might have a usable driver. There's also a new video driver for the hi556 (CONFIG_VIDEO_HI556) released by intel for the linux kernel.
If anyone wants me to rebase to 3.18.140, just ask.
Latest version fixes camera issues. Camera (Hynix hi556) is now recognised and autofocus works.
I copied the Hynix (eeprom OTP) code from the Lenovo Tab4 kernel source. The code in the P10 kernel source never worked - probably because the P10 was never released with Hynix hi556. The P10 uses OmniVision ov8856 (8MP) and GalaxyCore gc5025 (5MP). Whereas the M10 uses Hynix hi556 (5MP) and Superpix sp2519 (2MP).
This kernel is stable. I can't find anything wrong with it. I've tested it using stock ROM with no issues. So I guess it's safe to load up with the stock ROM (Android Pie)...at your own risk. Just be sure to backup the system & vendor images, plus the boot image in TWRP. You'll need these when an OTA comes along, anyway. The updater-script in the OTA will refuse to apply, because it won't recognise this kernel.
So until someone finds some issues with this kernel, I guess it's time to polish up some LineageOS code...
Two exciting announcements:
prima drivers added to staging
I've added prima drivers to the kernel github repository. It's used by the lineageos_X605F_defconfig to build the wlan.ko module (CONFIG_WLAN_PRONTO).
Lenovo released official kernel source yesterday
The official kernel source for the X605F and X605L has just appeared on Lenovo's support site.
I'll have a closer look over the next few weeks, but here's some preliminary observations:
it is released at msm 3.18.120. This is the stock kernel version. (Lenovo released 3.18.71 for the P10.)
there is only one download for both X605F and X605L. This might be good news.
the autofocus camera drivers for the Hynix appear to be included. I'll take a closer look.
kernel compiles without any changes. I haven't loaded it yet to test it.
edit: I've added the official source to the Yahoo-Mike/android_kernel_lenovo_X605F repo in the official-3.18.120 branch.
The opensource drop for the X605F from last week includes code for the kernel at msm-3.18.120. Surprisingly, it includes a defconfig for the P10. This confirms that the M10 (X605F/L) and P10 (X705F/L) are very similar.
I'm going to test Lenovo's kernel source on my TB-X605F this weekend. Is there anybody with a TB-X705F/L and the skills to build and test this code on their P10 ? PM me and we can coordinate.
The only differences I can see are:
Code:
m10_msmcortex_defconfig | p10_msmcortex_defconfig | Kconfig definition
----------------------- | ----------------------- | ------------------
| CONFIG_BATTERY_BQ27x00=y | drivers/power
CONFIG_CAMERA_TAB5_M10=y | | drivers/media/platform/msm/camera_v2
| CONFIG_CAMERA_TAB5_P10=y | drivers/media/platform/msm/camera_v2
| CONFIG_FOUR_PA=y | sound/soc/codecs & sound/soc/msm
| CONFIG_SENSORS_HALL=y | drivers/input
CONFIG_TP_MP_DIFF=y | | arch/arm64
The TP_MP_DIFF setting is used to load different firmware for the touchscreen drivers: one set for the M10s; another for the P10s.

Great find! I've successfully built the kernel and was also pleasantly surprised I could use the browsable menuconfig (like the setup for my Linux Desktop) after using the P10 defconfig i.e.
Code:
make -j24 ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-android- O=out p10_msmcortex_defconfig && make -j24 ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-android- O=out menuconfig
I've disabled requiring signing of loadable kernel modules, as well as generated some modules for USB-to-Serial chipsets I use (pl2303.ko, ftdi, etc.) for projects.
Now to test the Image.gz-dtb: I have not had much luck unpacking boot-TB-X705F_S210120_191029_ROW.img and repacking with my tools. I just end up on a blank screen on the P10.
Do you have a recommended set of tools that have worked with your M10?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Glad to hear it compiled for P10.
I use AnyKernel3 to inject the kernel for me. It can also load kernel modules, if you build any.
I use these properties in the AK3 mod script. Modify it to suit your purposes:
Code:
# begin properties
properties() { '
kernel.string=X605F kernel built by Yahoo Mike @ xda-developers
do.devicecheck=1
do.modules=1
do.cleanup=1
do.cleanuponabort=0
device.name1=X605F
supported.versions=9
supported.patchlevels=- 2020-06
'; } # end properties
Then in my script I copy the kernel to AK3 root directory and modules to ./modules/system/lib/modules directory (or vendor equivalent) & zip it all up.
Code:
# zip it all up, ready for installing in TWRP
# this zip will replace kernel, plus any modules you included (if any)
# don't forget to TWRP-backup boot, system and vendor images
# also good idea to copy /system/lib/modules/* and /vendor/lib/modules/pronto/*
cd ~/tools/AK3
zip -r9 update_X605F_kernel.zip * -x .git README.md *placeholder
adb push update_X605F_kernel.zip /external_sd/
Optionally, you can also create a "version" file with something like this (before zipping):
Code:
MY_KERNEL_IMG="$(pwd)/out/arch/arm64/boot/Image.gz-dtb"
MY_KERNEL_VERSION="$(make kernelversion)"
cd ~/tools/AK3
# create a "version" file
MY_ZIP_DATE=$(date +'%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')
MY_BUILD_DATE=$(stat ${MY_KERNEL_IMG} --format=%y | cut -c1-19)
echo "**************************************************" > $MY_ANYKERNEL_DIR/version
echo "unofficial kernel for Lenovo Smart Tab M10 (TB-X605F)" >> $MY_ANYKERNEL_DIR/version
echo " version: $MY_KERNEL_VERSION" >> $MY_ANYKERNEL_DIR/version
echo "compiled: $MY_BUILD_DATE" >> $MY_ANYKERNEL_DIR/version
echo " zipped: $MY_ZIP_DATE" >> $MY_ANYKERNEL_DIR/version
echo "**************************************************" >> $MY_ANYKERNEL_DIR/version
The Lenovo opensource seems to be working on the TB-X605F. The modules are also building and installing ok.
There is something odd about the device tree, so make sure you use Image, not Image-dtb.gz. When I used the dtb kernel, I kept getting the dreaded "Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E" mode.
I'll add a "lineage-17.1" branch to the github repo. It includes an M10_lineageos_defconfig for building the kernel and modules, and wlan.ko source from CAF for Android 10:
Code:
June 01, 2020 LA.UM.8.6.2.r1-07600-89xx.0 msm8953_64 LA.UM.8.6.2.r1-07600-89xx.0.xml 10.00.00

I can get the dtb kernel to work by replacing the arch/arm/boot/dts/qcom/ directory from Lenovo's opensource with the same directory from the "msm-3.18.120" branch of the repo. It boots fine with the stock ROM and LOS.
The "msm-3.18.120" branch is based on the original P10 opensource from January 2019.
So yes, there is definitely something screwy about the dt blobs from the June 2020 codedrop.
Not sure if this would be a valid kernel or not - On the back it says model is TB-X605F. I
In settings it says hardware is TB-X606F and so is the software.
It's the m10 gen 2 tablet. I believe Mediatek chipset.

If you have the gen 2, then this is the wrong kernel.
Lenovo has published the TBX606F/X kernel.

The CPU-Z app from the playstore will tell you which SOC you have.
I added pstore/ramoops support on branch msm-3.18.120. I have no idea why Lenovo never configured pstore/ramoops in the first place.
The ramoops device will dump console-ramoops, dmesg-ramoops-0, pmsg-ramoops-0 into /sys/fs/pstore/.
I'll add pstore support to TWRP for the TB-X605F in the next update. I'll use this branch (msm-3.18.120) to build the kernel.
I'm hoping pstore will tell me why GSI images fail to boot when installed over stock Pie.
Hello and thanks to all of you to invest so much time and effort. I'm not the best in this android world so forgive me if I ask something stupid Recently I got a Lenove Tab M10 TB-X605L and well I rooted it (with magisk) to use Linux on it. As I said I don't use android so much and I just got this product as present so when I saw this post I thought If I can put a new Kernel why not compile it with NetHunter Kernel and give it a try. After some effort (I'm not sure if it will work) I made the kernel. My problem is:
1st I rooted my Tablet with Magisk (as the same way you mentioned in another post) after the rooting I download twrp from google play. Till here all is good. Now:
TWRP is working when I boot it. But asks for a Password. I tried some swipe data, cache etc. but still I see that PASSWORD field. I can't pass it. (And when I pass it without Password I can't see the kernel neither yours nor mine)
I don't care what happens to my Tablet as I said I'm not a android user. I would even would try a crazy Idea even if its end with a dead tablet but I would really wanna check if the compiled NetHunter kernel works.

TWRP will ask for a password if you have a password, PIN or pattern set on your tablet, and/or your data partition is encrypted.
If you have a password or PIN set on your tablet, try entering that. If you had a pattern, try this.
You can unencrypt the data partition by reformatting it and then installing Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt.zip (created by Zackptg5). Just be aware that this wipes all your data and breaks OTA updates. (Magisk also needs to be uninstalled before OTAs work.)

Remember: android recovery (twrp) uses the kernel in the recovery partition, not the boot partition.
So, where are you injecting your kernel?
If you are injecting your kernel into TWRP's recovery image, which kernel do you see when you issue this command?
Code:
adb shell uname -r
If you are injecting your kernel into the system ROM's boot.img, then you won't see your kernel in TWRP. You'll see the kernel with which twrp was compiled.
BTW...interesting project. Good luck. Let us know if you get it working.
Hi there,
I just compiled your kernel source you've uploaded on the Github (official branch) with m10_msmcortex_defconfig. Then, I flashed it to my device with anykernel 3, also included all modules, but the wifi does not work(It cannot be turned on). Before I flash it, my device was running well at the stock firmware, so I wonder what's wrong with my compilation.
After that, I also tried to compile the lineage branch, with lineageos_tbx605_defconfig. I flashed it to my device running well on AOSP 10(project treble), but the problem was same as the official source.
Could you please tell me that what's wrong with my compilation or how to compile it to work well? Thanks a lot .

It sounds like the wlan_pronto.ko module is not loading. That's why wifi is not working.
It might be easier to build the msm-3.18.120 branch with YM_x605f_deconfig. That should work.
It does not force module signature checks (CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE=n). So the stock wlan module (/vendor/lib/modules/pronto/wlan_pronto.ko) should load ok.
If that fails, check the kernel log (dmesg) for errors loading the wlan module. Let me know what the errors are.
official source
The stock wifi module won't work with the kernel from the official branch because CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE=y. You'll have to download the wlan source from CAF and build it with the same signature. That's a lot of work.
I also had some DT and dm-verity issues with the official source.
lineage-17.1
The lineage-17.1 branch includes the CAF wlan module (in drivers/staging/prima) for Android 10.0. I'm not sure why it's not working for you. Check the kernel log for wlan load errors.
The included CAF wlan module (and your GSI system) are Android 10. Your vendor is Android 9.0 or 8.1. Maybe there's a compatibility issue ? I'm guessing. I haven't tried that kernel with a GSI ROM.

Hello
I’m building my own android image (so obviously I have the source code)
I want to add my own drivers (specific ones), but I have no idea about how to add them, so any help?
Regards
Any help guys ? srsly, i'm very stuck here
do you mean your device tree?

yes
If the device trees exist, you will need to add a local_manifests folder & roomservice.xml into your repo folder with the relevant details included, mine is attached as an example.
If not, you will need to create them, heres a couple of initial guides:
