I had that too just a few hours ago. when doing the prebuilds command, it creates the proprietary folder inside

 ~/coldfusionx/cm9

INSTEAD of inside  

 ~/coldfusionx/cm9/vendor/cm

copy it across and.. well I hope it manages because honestly I'm still compiling for a few hours now!

ah yes that only recently got updated to allow it to run outside the cwd, so if you've not repo sync'ed first it wouldn't work.

the alternative of course is just to cd into the ~/coldfusionx/cm9/vendor/cm/ directory and run ./get-prebuilts from there.

[shmizan]

didn't know that. looking in the prebuilts file I saw basedir and thought it means the cm9 folder.

I don't know what's taking so long.. it's nearly 2 hours now and still compiling. sej, is it really necessary to completely delete the "out" folder before every new build? it will take ages.. CM7 was finished in 30-40 minutes tops

Now I saw this update on the color banding:
http://review.cyanog....com/#/c/14765/

Is it better to revert this update:


http://review.cyanog....com/#/c/14498/ ?

Take a look at it

nope, the first one (not colour banding actually) is going to need to be rebased as our colour banding fix got merged (and is already in 15/04).

as the webrtc arm6 patch got merged too we've got no gerrit or github patches to apply now (only our own coldfusionx/tilal github repo's).

well it shouldn't be neccessary, you could do a "make installclean" instead, but if you're pulling in a new kernel it won't work, and it doesn't seem to set environment variables such as the build date properly either.

cm7 took me 30-40mins too, so your cm9 shouldn't take more than an hour assuming we have similar hardware. most of the build is cpu-bound. laptops and atoms take hours due to crap disk/cpu.

are you using ccache? do an "export USE_CCACHE=1" before the build and it will cache some of the C files in ~/.ccache

Tom G has pushed Blade's ICS device tree into CyanogenMod github.
https://github.com/C..._blade/tree/ics

I think this should be used to compile CM9 from now on. If/when CM9 for Blade goes official, it will be this one...

yup and proprietary, coldfusionx won't be needed much longer it seems (except crescent/skate i guess)

looks like we're going official (hint) just got to get the githubs added to repo i guess.

when its possible to build i'll update the instructions for cm9

Already compiled one. It only needs

TARGET_PREBUILT_KERNEL := device/zte/blade/kernel

to be added into boardconfig. Something like this is already under way.

I have no idea what the knows bugs list might be, but camera preview seems to be working (flickering as hell though). On the down side adb doesn't work in my build.

Edit. I actually take back that working camera preview. It worked on the first time, but now it's just a mess.
Edit2. lol and adb works when you remember to put usb debugging on.

Yep, that's where I first spotted it and noticed that there was something going on.

[shmizan]

with all this work they BETTER make us official but what about all the changes tilal is making/made?

tom_g has already been looking at some of the coldfusionx work (and abandoned most of it lol) as someone was submitting our github patches to gerrit, plus i think a lot of the original work was with help from tom_g.

I wonder why my mms.apk is 2mb and includes so many emoji pngs unlike your build, sej?

Hey guys any more feedback on the latest cm9 build? Has tomG finally enabled hw accel in this build?any chance someone can upload the build somewhere if its better than his previous alpha 7 ?

its a lot easier to build now, we're semi-official, essentially its just:

git clone https://github.com/koush/proprietary_vendor_zte.git -b ics

copy the blade directory to vendor/zte

apply this and this patch

export CM_NIGHTLY=1
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch cm_blade-userdebug
make bacon -j8

at the moment i doubt its going to be any/much different to coldfusionx, the kernel has had some work but it still has battery issues apparently. camera doesn't work and won't ever possibly, so yes hardware acceleration must be enabled, although the adreno libs aren't the same as the coldfusionx or xda-dev ones or the old non-accelerated ones, so god knows where he got them from!

holy moly tom_g's is 15mb larger than coldfusionx, that can't all be from using full instead of mini.........

I wanna try too! : ) if someone can upload!

its not worth it, for the moment coldfusionx 15/04 is faster imho, what for the cm9 repo to settle a bit and tom_g releases a nightly.

You're reading it wrong. Gotta love how ambiguous english is!  there are various devices made by ZTE upon which we have got unofficial builds of CM9 working.

How to force the repo sync after our changes?
Is that to me is giving me error doing repo sync, for example:

Syncing work tree:  60% (150/249)  error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by checkout:
	services/surfaceflinger/Layer.cpp
Please, commit your changes or stash them before you can switch branches.
Aborting
Syncing work tree: 100% (249/249), done.

I feel upset in this thread, but a guy in the thread coldfusionX hit this link, do not really know what it is, looks like a plate made, could be compatible with ARMv6, I have no idea, but leave the link if it is worth something. Thanks.
