Building your own ROM

Toggle sidebar Toggle sidebar
Try it again, but this time type the full path of repo. Assuming you followed directions, your command should look like this

~/bin/repo -u init git://blahblahblah

Sorry I can't be of more help. I'm not really a Linux guy. I'm sure if that doesn't work someone much smarter than I will get back to you.

My bad, don't flip them then. The important part was doing ~/bin/repo instead of just repo.

I had the same problem wwhen I started out. You have to curl the repo command from a different site. Webtutor doesn't work

Look at the error.

It's a web page not a python script.

Try fetching it from another place.

Whoops, haha. Sorry about that. It was early, I was feeling ill but couldn't sleep, sorry I didn't catch it.

As for my error posted on the last page, I'm just going to try to compile with 0 edits and see if it's something I'm doing that is causing issues.

Now when I go to build it, here's what I get:

Libril.so seems to be missing. I'm currently half asleep so I can't think of what to try first... check the vendor folder for the file, then check the .mk files to make sure its getting copied. Use iho as a reference if needed.

On an unrelated note, I have a question for the experienced people. How crazy is it to use btrfs for everything except /boot on a build box? Its running quite fast for me and the built in raid is nice. Only issue I had was getting debian to boot with it

I'm currently using btrfs for EVERYTHING on Ubuntu 12.04. No issues at all.
 
Is there any sort of resource that explains files in the Android source, sort of walks a wannabe dev through it all? So, like, when I finish syncing and I know something that I want to change, I have some sort of reference guide to refer to? I'm okay just using grep to find the values I want to change and changing them in all the files that come up, but this just seems really inefficient.

I've never used linux before, but from the looks of it, it looks like the c++ libraries are outdated and not supported by the newer version of linux. Try updating them.

Try installing libcr-dev

EDIT: I believe lstdc is part of the multilib library, so try:
sudo apt-get install g++-4.4-multilib

Looks like you are missing zlib1g (and zlib1g-dev).

I've made no changes just sync with Jerrys github and make bacon so it should work...

Its in /drawable hidden in all the xmls as default_wallpaper.

Just a hint... when you can't find something use the search function and it normally yeilds the file your looking for. That's how I find stuff I can't find on windows anyway... idk if Linux has a similar function.

EDIT: Just in case someone thinks I'm just telling him to Google his question, I'm not. I'm saying use the search function on the explorer to find the files he can't find.
