How does one build a rom with aosp on windows, is it possible to build on a virtual box or something like that?
My company has recently received some new android hardware and has requested that I create a custom operating system for the device. The manufacturer has agreed to provide us with the existing android source, but I have a few questions to get started:
On the following link: [URL] .......
It states that I need to add lines similar to the below to my "51-android.rules" file:"
# adb protocol on maguro/toro (Galaxy Nexus)
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="04e8", ATTR{idProduct}=="6860", MODE="0600", OWNER="<username>"
How do I determine the correct information to use for this process? Should I collect this information with the device connected to a windows PC?
Once connected, I would like to scrap their existing operating system and begin from AOSP source, what information from their original source should I retain (Kernel, bootloader, etc), and what information would I be required to remove to bring in AOSP?
But most seem to be specifying nexus devices, or devices which already have a strong developer backing, neither of which apply to this hardware.

I've just run trough all the setps to be able to build aosp on ubuntu. Currently I'm running a build, looks like it will take a while.
My goal is to build an aosp rom for the samsung galaxy chat, samsung provides downloads for 'platform' and kernel.
My question is, what should I do with the sources of the kernel and the platform, do I need to integrate them into the aosp source?

What are the differences between RUU and AOSP ROMs?
Am I correct that a RUU rom is a fully stock rom that some devs post with or without root? Like basically the latest version of non OTA for your device?
I feel like this is something basic that I should know but just haven't come across it.
Eclipse is so slow, so im trying to switch to intellij. My question is: how do i add the aosp or cm source to intellij?
I've tryed the same way like in eclipse but it doesn't work.
I have a SGS3, but I'm loving AOSP roms since my SGS2, i'm still on SAMMY roms only for the awesome camera app feautres that I don't want to lose...
so i'm asking to aosp users...do you have a good replacement (with HDR, somethingsimilarto best shot..) for stock camera app? 'cause i don't like very much aosp camera
Add video support to this App? (Crunchyroll)
Would it be too difficult or be a simple mod?
I know in a Sense ROM you can replace the system/media/audio/ui/Volume-1 through Volume-7 sound files and was wondering if I can do something like this with a AOSP ROM like CM7. Is this possible at all? Even if I had to look into building my own CM7 from source I'd like to give it a try.

Or maybe take the complete android stock keyboard out of the CM zip file and install it in my ROM.

Do you think I should decompile "boot.img" (from ROM, which has a good battery life) and move kernel into the boot.img on AOSP ROM? Or do you know how to improve battery life on AOSP ROM ?
View 2 Replies View Relatedrecently I've been learning more and more about building AOSP builds since I'm not a huge fan of the bloated touchwiz rom's for the Stratosphere. I'm looking more for AOSP roms, like I had when I had the Evo.
1. I have all I need to build Android from source, I have the Android source, and I have sources from Samsung for the Stratosphere. This includes the kernel sources, and platform sources, how do I merge these two together?
2. Do I have to build a kernel when I build the rom, or do I build the kernel seperately?
Having issues setting custom wallpapers through an AOSP based ROM, I have found the solution. Upload the image(s) to any host. I simply use my G+ account. Access said site using your device (through the browser) and long press your chosen image until the menu comes up. Choose Set As Wallpaper and voila! A full size, non-cropped custom wallpaper on your phone/tablet.

Android has millions of features but there is no world clock. I think Google forgetting about it! I'm waiting it since Cupcake but still no step. Did you notice it too?

This is happening for apps like instagram, twitter, snapchat, etc. It only appears to happen when my phone in deep sleep, when the screen is off for roughly 5+ minutes. I have tried PNF, different gapps, different kernels. Also on a clean install of course.

- I am a software programmer

- I know how to compile a basic AOSP rom
but i am struggling with specific device drivers and configuration files.
my other devices will connect, but with "Limited or no Connectivity" (Laptop and iPod Touch). I have a data plan and tethering access through my provider (Rogers in Canada). tethering has ceased to function, as stated above, I can enable and my devices can see the network, but they will never acquire internet access after connection, even though I have full signal and the phone itself has internet access
tethering was working on this ROM (but not the kernel) last week.I would post this in the ROM thread, but I'm unable to do so as I cannot post in the developer board until I have 10+ posts under my belt
I just got a Chinese phone, karbonn's titanium s5 (also known as cherry mobile skyfire 2.0) and want to build cyanogenmod 10.1/10.2 to this device. The problem is, there are no kernel sources released by company. Is it possible to make appropriate ramdisk changes without sources directly in boot.img?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am working on building from aosp 4.4.2. I have built it with the pre-built kernel without any problems. Then, I managed to get a custom kernel code in place and it builds. Now the only thing left to do is the initramfs/ramdisk for the custom kernel I have in place. Currenlty my build will not boot. I suspect it is using the initramfs/ramdisk from aosp.
Any source files or files that handle the initramfs/ramdisk? I have found bits and pieces strewn throughout the source code but cannot pinpoint the indivitual files or the script/mk file that produces the ramdisk found in the out folder after my system finishes building.
I know I can change the initramfs/ramdisk manually by repacking the boot.img, but I would prefer everything be completed in the updatpackage.
I have an HTC one and I want to install a kernal which makes the htc logo a menu button. But I already have Cyanogen Mod installed. TeamSeven,Bulletproff, and elementalX all do not work! How I can get the HTc logo to be a menu button? with or without kernal. Don't give me programs that make you slide across or something like that.

I downloaded such an app and it called DejaOffice. However, due to some bug (or lake of one feature) I prefer to use some other solution.
I'm running a 4.3 aosp ROM and only flashed a very minimal gapps(only playstore loginframework play services and GMSCore ) . I can't access my quick setting tiles as the icon is missing from the notification pulldown and my lock screen doesn't work no matter what security I put. If I flash the full gapps they work. What dependencies am I missing?
