Based on sej7278's blade guide

Make sure you have set up your build environment first.

Ok, first you need to install repo, google's git script.

mkdir ~/bin
PATH=~/bin:$PATH
curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo

Now you need to initiate git and download the CM9 source. use

repo sync

to download source and update.

mkdir - p ~/cm9/vendor/zte/
cd ~/cm9
repo init -u git://github.com/cyanogenmod/android.git -b ics
repo sync -j4

Next step is to download our device config.....

mkdir ~/cm9/device/zte
cd ~/cm9/device/zte
git clone git://github.com/ColdFusionX/android_device_zte_skate.git skate

......and ZTE proprietary files

cd ~/cm9/vendor/zte/
git clone git://github.com/koush/proprietary_vendor_zte.git -b ics

Downloading Kernel Source (skip this step first time, if you get stuck on the kernel error because it didn't download automatially then follow this and skip to the last step)

cd ~/cm9
mkdir -p kernel/zte
cd kernel/zte
git clone git://github.com/CyanogenMod/zte-kernel-msm7x27.git -b ics zte-kernel-msm7x27

Update prebuilts  (ROM Manager, Terminal Emulator)

cd ~/cm9/vendor/cm
./get-prebuilts

Now to compile...this will download the kernel source first time round, As far as I know CCACHE is optional...

cd ~/cm9
export USE_CCACHE=1 CM_SNAPSHOT=1
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch cm_skate-eng
make bacon -j4

Good Luck!

This will show you how to build ColdFusionX 2, I have'nt gone to in depth, so if it's a bit complicated mix and match instructions from the CM9 tutorial above

mkdir cm10 && cd cm10
repo init git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b jellybean

Download  local_manifest.xml   837bytes   58 downloads and move to .repo/

repo sync

Apply patches from here and here

To apply Konsta's patches cd to bionic and frameworks/av respectively and apply like this:

git am *.patch

To apply C3C0's patch:

gedit kernel/zte/zte-kernel-msm7x27/drivers/net/wireless/bcm4319

Add this line:

-Wno-array-bounds

underneath:

-Idrivers/net/wireless/bcm4319 -Idrivers/net/wireless/bcm4319/include \

Get prebults:

 vendor/cm/get-prebuilts

Setup build, lunch and compile:

export USE_CCACHE=1 CM_EXPERIMENTAL=1 CM_EXTRAVERSION=[yourname]
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch cm_skate-userdebug
make bacon -j4

CM10.1 (rough guide)

Initialise the env.

repo init -u https://github.com/androidarmv6/android.git -b cm-10.1

Download the cm10 manifest above and replace all projects with these.

<project name="androidarmv6/android_device_zte_skate" path="device/zte/skate" />

<project name="androidarmv6/android_device_zte_msm7x27-common" path="device/zte/msm7x27-common" />

<project name="androidarmv6/android_kernel_zte_msm7x27" path="kernel/zte/msm7x27" />

Sync with the sources

repo sync -j32

Build.

. build/envsetup.sh
brunch skate

Please post any errors you get while building. We will be able to help you.

well done mate. can't see any immediate errors.

but prepare for a shite load of pm's with people having problems and asking for you to sort it out

you might also want to do a quick guide on how to add in new features from gerrit that have not been fully merged. as that question is bound to be asked below

[tilal6991]

cd ~/cm9/vendor/zte/

should be

cd ~/cm9/device/zte/

And you're missing:

cd ~/cm9/vendor/
git clone git://github.com/koush/proprietary_vendor_zte.git -b ics zte

Apart from that looks good.

OK thanks.

Shouldn't we use the props from your github, I didn't think koush's had the skate in...

It didn't. Until 3 days ago when Tom accepted the pull request to merge the Skate.

Ah right.

[razzmataz1478]

I've updated hopefully that's right now

[Nofan Tasi]

thanks a lot guys!

this recipe brings me much further

but, it seems I need to configure something to be able to download the kernel

have a nice day

[razzmataz1478]

Try

lunch cm_skate-userdebug

[XMasterNinni]

That shouldn't be the error. Try another prebuilt kernel (device/zte/skate/prebuilt/..)

[Nofan Tasi]

Hi razzmataz1478,

After 'lunch cm_skate-userdebug', 'make bacon -j4' first cleans up things and then gives same error.

Hi XMasterNinni,

How do I 'try another prebuilt kernel'? device/zte/skate/prebuilt is a bit skinny:
~/cm9$ ls device/zte/skate/prebuilt/
skate_keypad.kl  start_usb0.sh  synaptics-rmi4-ts.idc  synaptics-rmi-touchscreen.idc

Thanks!

Take an existing boot.img and place it there?

And then try and compile again

[XMasterNinni]

Would be nice if it's just as easy as replacing a boot.img...lol

Try another device tree (maybe AOSPFX one...). Although I'm pretty sure that it wouldn't work. But worth a try

[tilal6991]

cm ~/cm9
mkdir kernel
mkdir kernel/zte
cd kernel/zte
git clone git://github.com/CyanogenMod/zte-kernel-msm7x27.git -b ics zte-kernel-msm7x27

And then run lunch and make again.

[razzmataz1478]

mehhh, i can't download the kernel source automatically now, same error

[razzmataz1478]

updated to include kernel source downloading

[razzmataz1478]

Now I'm getting this:

make: *** No rule to make target `device/zte/blade/releasetools/extras.sh', needed by `out/target/product/skate/system/bin/extras.sh'. Stop.
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

[Nofan Tasi]

Hi tilal6991

make now continues (after adding kernel source tree)

btw: 'cm ~/cm9' almost bit me ;-)

thanks all for your kind help!

ps: perhaps soon I can change my profile 'Member Title "Newbie"' to something else, if only I knew how ...

[Nofan Tasi]

would there be an issue with 2 makefiles below?

~/cm9$ grep device/zte/blade $(find -iname makefile -or -iname "*.mk") | grep -v proprietary_vendor_zte/blade
./device/zte/skate/device.mk:     device/zte/blade/releasetools/extras.sh:system/bin/extras.sh
./device/zte/skate/BoardConfig.mk:TARGET_RELEASETOOL_OTA_FROM_TARGET_SCRIPT := device/zte/blade/releasetools/ota_from_target_files

thanks

[Nofan Tasi]

and with device/zte/skate/releasetools/ota_from_target_files itself?

~/cm9$ grep blade device/zte/skate/releasetools/*
device/zte/skate/releasetools/ota_from_target_files:EXTRAS_FILE = 'device/zte/blade/releasetools/extras.txt'
