How to build AOSP source for SF?

[Guest RichBayliss]

Hey all,

This seems to be the most complete ZTE Blade/Orange SF forum out there - so thanks Paul for setting it up!

I am trying to create a complete AOSP build from Eclair 2.1 sources for the SF. I have dabbled in building the AOSP project before, but only to fix various apps and create emulator ROMS.

Would anyone have the expertise to point me in the right direction? I presume I need to use the ZTE kernel source and binary drivers from the phone itself... but this is just a guess.

Any help is always welcome, and hopefully we can get a 100% AOSP clean ROM for these rediculously cheap, nay "cost effective", devices.

Rich :rolleyes:

i have no experience but am looking to learn. would be willing to help in anyway i could.

The more help the better :rolleyes:

I am setting up the build enviroment now - VirtualBox Ubuntu 10.10

Once I can build the generic source for Eclair 2.1-update1 then I think its a case of tweaking from there.

complete kernel source is not available at the moment due to ztes poor configuration management, there is partial source though I believe. You can do AOSP with the kernel binary, I believe there are a few guys working on this (or CM6) at the moment, might be worth joining the irc channel to see if any are around.

OK, I'll do that thanks.

Interesting idea to build the source and then swap in the kernel/modules... might be a good route. Since I am sticking with 2.1-update1 anyway this should work without issue.

thanks for that, currently syncing codeaurora repo

if this is successful, I'll sync Cyanogen, going to try eclair and froyo equivalents first

edit: building codeaurora 2.3.2 first
