[GUIDE][DEV]Compiling CM9/10/10.1 for ZTE Skate

[Guest tilal6991]

Thanks. Have fixed it all I think. git pull should fix the errors.

[Guest razzmataz1478]

This is what I'm getting now..

*** No rule to make target `vendor/cm/proprietary/RomManager.apk', needed by `out/target/product/skate/system/app/RomManager.apk'. Stop.

[Guest tilal6991]

Try running get-prebuilts again.

[Guest Nofan Tasi]

dear gurus

how does one bring private tree up to date ?

Here is what I tried:

cm9 $ repo sync -j4

Fetching projects: 100% (254/254), done.

Syncing work tree: 6% (16/254) fatal: reference is not a tree: 8d25781706ecd0ae50f2b130e8dd08c57296de5c

Syncing work tree: 100% (254/254), done.

device/zte/skate/: leaving ics; does not track upstream

error: device/zte/skate/: CyanogenMod/android_device_zte_skate checkout 8d25781706ecd0ae50f2b130e8dd08c57296de5c

and (not sure if git-pull is correct way, sorry, not yet familiar with git...):

cm9 $ cd ~/cm9/device/zte

zte $ git pull git://github.com/ColdFusionX/android_device_zte_skate.git skate

fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

any help to provide correct commands appreciated

thanks

[Guest razzmataz1478]

Not sure about the first problem, but for the second

cd ~/cm9/device/zte/skate

git pull git://github.com/ColdFusionX/android_device_zte_skate.git 

[Guest Nofan Tasi]

thanks !!!

this works also for git://github.com/koush/proprietary_vendor_zte.git

cm9$ cd ~/cm9/device/zte/skate

skate$ git pull git://github.com/ColdFusionX/android_device_zte_skate.git

From git://github.com/ColdFusionX/android_device_zte_skate

* branch HEAD -> FETCH_HEAD

Already up-to-date.

...

cm9$ cd ~/cm9/vendor/zte/proprietary_vendor_zte

proprietary_vendor_zte $ git pull git://github.com/koush/proprietary_vendor_zte.git

From git://github.com/koush/proprietary_vendor_zte

but for zte-kernel-msm7x27 I see

cm9$ cd ~/cm9/kernel/zte/zte-kernel-msm7x27

zte-kernel-msm7x27$ git pull git://github.com/CyanogenMod/zte-kernel-msm7x27.git

Pull is not possible because you have unmerged files.

Please, fix them up in the work tree, and then use 'git add/rm <file>'

as appropriate to mark resolution, or use 'git commit -a'.

of course I can remove zte-kernel-msm7x27 and clone, but then rebuild

is from scratch on that subtree

Hi skate compiling people

I couple of questions before I dare to attempt to flash own built

.zip.

First, why do I want to build myself?

- Just for fun

- I would like to use USB storage (via kernel config)

(as to be able to, say, play music from an USB stick)

- I would perhaps like to use a DVB-T stick (via kernel config)

(to use once vlc for android is ready)

- I would perhaps want to have a slightly different set of apps

(but I don't know yet how to do that)

- ...

So here the questions

- if I flash minor upgrade, do I need to wipe anything?

- build system_size says (int) 230686720 and my /system partition df = 220M

also: 220*1024*1024 = 230686720

does this mean that my /system partition will be 100% full?

- unlike

update-cm-9-20120531-SNAPSHOT-skate-ColdFusionX-tilal6991-signed.zip,

my zip also has an extra directory with videoeditor app and media

files.

I don't need them, but will they be flashed, and, where?

Can I just unzip, throw them away and make a zip file without?

- todays zip is called cm-9-20120608-UNOFFICIAL-skate.zip whereas

yesterday's zip was called

update-cm-9-20120607-SNAPSHOT-skate-signed.zip

Is this name change intentional?

Thanks for all help

have a good weekend

-No wipes

-Not sure

-Look in Meta-Inf/com/android/google to see where they are flashed, you will most likely just be able to delete them form the zip

-Did you

export CM_SNAPSHOT=1

????

[Guest Nofan Tasi]

thanks razzmataz for pointing me at meta inf scripts

~cm9$ echo $CM_SNAPSHOT

1

[Guest Nofan Tasi]

Sorry to ask ... I am not a git connoisseur

How does one pull a snapshot, say, date 20120615, from cm9 and zte

repository?

Also: are certain snapshots (perhaps weeklies) more 'stable' than

others?

Say, I like and trust tilal6991's snapshot (which, in fact, I do, of

course) and I want to change a tiny bit (but I do not want to end up

in some, perhaps, unstable situation).

Thanks!

recently (2 days) build fails:

device/zte/skate/overlay/frameworks/base/core/res/res/values/dimens.xml:4: error: Error parsing XML: junk after document element

make: *** [out/target/common/obj/APPS/framework-res_intermediates/package-export.apk] Error 1

make: *** Deleting file `out/target/common/obj/APPS/framework-res_intermediates/package-export.apk'

but the xml looks not bad to me:

cat device/zte/skate/overlay/frameworks/base/core/res/res/values/dimens.xml

<!-- Height of the horizontal navigation bar on devices that require it -->

<dimen name="navigation_bar_height">36dp</dimen>

<!-- Width of the vertical navigation bar on devices that require it -->

<dimen name="navigation_bar_width">42dp</dimen>

anybody sees this?

[Guest tilal6991]

git pull the skate repo.

[Guest Nofan Tasi]

Thanks for the kind help.

Pardon my lack of git command knowledge, I do undestand how some

version control systems work but not git.

It seems somehow I have an unmerged file that cannot be automatically

resolved. (arch/arm/configs/cyanogen_v9_defconfig).

Of course, right now, I am not planning to commit anything, just play

around a bit.

Any hint on how to resolve (and, perhaps, avoid) the conflict?

PS: some time ago I have, for test purpose, done a make config and,

perhaps, I copied the .config to cyanogen_v9_defconfig, but then,

meanwhile I have removed the local entire zte-kernel-msm7x27 directory

several times.

[Guest utternoob]

I'm no expert either but shouldn't all of the blade bits be Skate

[Guest razzmataz1478]

The kernel git includes the blade crescent (blade 2) skate and v9 so no they're fine.

[Guest Nofan Tasi]

thanks everybody

perhaps I changed a file and this must be cached somewhere because even after removal of tree and cloning it back, merging cannot be resolved.

I tried a few things like

git init ...

git reset ...

but I do not know well what I am doing (I do read the manpages) and it does not alter the conflict

have a nice day

[Guest Nofan Tasi]

restart from scratch made build recipe work again

now that code freeze cm9 branch is made, do we need to adapt recipe ?

thanks!

[Guest razzmataz1478]

Downloading CM10 source, anything that needs to be changed for it to compile? Patches etc..

[Guest Nofan Tasi]

I am tempted to wait for CM9 release and get its build instructions then ;-)

[Guest razzmataz1478]

I'm going to try to compile including the patches Konsta has on his guide. I'll let you know if it works.

Now I'm stuck, what kernel do I use? The same one as ICS, or Konsta's kernel?

Edited August 2, 2012 by razzmataz1478

I'm getting this error in the kernel when trying to compile:

OK I'll compile again and the errors...
