[DEV][WIP]Building ICS for the OV

Okay, so I changed line 187 in node_fns.mk from:
Code:
define _import-node
to:
Code:
define _import-node)
and ran lunch and selected 4 and am now getting this error:
Code:
Which would you like? [full-eng] 4
build/core/product_config.mk:199: *** build/target/product/core.mk: PRODUCT_NAME must be defined..  Stop.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "build/tools/roomservice.py", line 9, in <module>
    device = product[product.index("_") + 1:]
ValueError: substring not found
build/core/product_config.mk:199: *** build/target/product/core.mk: PRODUCT_NAME must be defined..  Stop.

** Don't have a product spec for: 'thunderc'
** Do you have the right repo manifest?

EDIT: don't do that. Getting the same errors, but just a little different.

No download link. This isn't completed yet. Look people, please stop posting here. This is a developer thread. If you have something to contribute to ICS for the V, by all means, post. But try to limit, like it says in the OP, the comments asking for a ROM and "woohoo" comments. Thanks.

Plus, I keep getting false hope when this thread jumps to the top :)

We are all hoping for some progress. Sorry to keep bloating the thread but all of us are anxious and like to know the project hasnt died if there arent new posts
 
Just an update, I talked about this in the other thread, and now it's happening.

The Android Central Optimus V Community ICS Build Server is now up and running.
TDM is putting the finishing touches on it. I ended up working a lot last week, and caught a cold this week (yay), so it got delayed a bit.

The idea is that you guys can log in through SSH and use it to build ICS faster and without bogging down your own systems. With this, you can build from anywhere you have internet and an ssh client, even your phone. I'm not going to let just anyone use it, just the core people building and working on ICS, this will limit the number using it and keep it running fast.

I'll have more once we get it finished, but it is coming.
Thanks for your efforts guys.
 
Wow this sounds great, I didn't want to try ics cause of this reason. Great work.

Sorry, its GSM, ours is closer to the Hero cdma version as far as compatibility goes.

Isn't the radio controlled by the kernel though? Not that I've built roms or kernels, but can't the functioning cdma radio be pulled and put into a custom kernel then port the compatible parts from the gt540 optimus? Just my thought, but could be a mile off.

Unfortunately, it's not that way. We cannot figure out how to flash the radio on the OV. Whyzor spent about a month experimenting, ended up bricking his OV beyond repair, and had to buy a new phone. I don't recommend experimenting with the radio unless you don't mind ruining your phone.

The only chance is to get LG to release full source, but they have only barely release what is required. ;)

Yeah LG's recovery flashes radios in some non-obvious way. What they REALLY need to do is release their recovery source.

You must've confused me with another legendary developer :) I've never bricked a phone (yet), *knock on wood*. Good luck on getting ICS on the OV! And if you're so inclined, come help us out for the MT! :D
