Hey I am new to this, but I am trying to work thing out. I am hardware guy with very less programming experience. I want to write a guide from a noob perspective, which is which is why I started. More than a guide this is a log of things I am doing to get my AOSP and kernel compiled. I wish to then start with ICS, I know it is a long shot but worth a try!

When I am done with it completely say 2.3.3 I will clean up my posts and make sure no errors exists

Guys let the dude try at least ...everyone is a n00b at sometime or the other ...he is trying to learn so motivate him ...
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jasonyump:
lol..install spotify..sdk..eclipse ide..

lol

Neither 3 of those have anything to do with building..you obviously haven't read the cm wiki yet. theres nothing about scripts there...It gives you the commands to run to get all the tools necessary, & Instructions on how to build.

Jussayin..the way you're going, is headed in the wrong direction even for a noob
[Atrix 4G Android Development] munchy_cool:
I agree with that , guess some dev needs to point him to the right direction ...

Thanks guys, I will read through them links and will learn. I am open to learning and sorry for the script part , I read a forum where CM7 compile was done with a automated script file which said official and I thought that was it.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] aditya_g8:
Hi guys I have compiled the kernel and have a zImage, I wish to pack and upload it and test it before I can confirm it is working. Thanks for the help again guys! And I got rid of spotify I see people are much more critical than I thought! I was hoping for a little more help as a friendly forum!

Thanks a lot munchy_cool
[Atrix 4G Android Development] tgpqaz:
I wasn't trying to be critical, I was just wondering why you had it on there.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] munchy_cool:
Congrats and Not a problem ..now if you can update first post with all the steps you did so that others do not learn the hard way like you did ..

I see you already did that ..just the packing step is missing...

How to compile CM7 (aosp is something else start on cm7)

install 10.10 ubuntu 64bit (gingerbread and above requires 64bit host os)

download CM7 source following the usual instructions.

visit the atrix-dev-team git hub and download our patches using git.

enter the directory with the vendor motorola files in it, and run the extract files script (you need to have your atrix plugged to the pc via usb, and it must have the development [debugging] option on)

once you are done doing that follow regular instructions

lunch olympus

blah blah blah

have fun

__________________________

working with aosp is way harder, you have to edit the frameworks and what nots of the source to get it to work. if you are up for the challenge the best place to begin would be to look at motos source code and stines source code.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] killer_siller:
I just grabbed the 4.0.1-r1 source. I'll be making an attempt at this.

Something I've noticed thus far: Arch Linux uses python2 for the python-2.x binary. I've had to change the python call in "repo" and a few other scripts to python2 to avoid errors.

And the Big Boys are back in town ..helping out as always ....wassup bro :D
[Atrix 4G Android Development] matematic:
I think that compiling the kernel and packing it with latest android is not the only thing which you should do. There are a lot of native system libraries which also should be compiled for the corresponding hardware.

Do you think that ready to run ROM is just kernel + android ?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Phalanx7621:
The idea behind this thread and the goal is totally honorable, in the right place ( it is development after all) and so far the OP has been respectful and honest. However the direction it is taking and the steps needed to be followed seem to me to be a bit.....misleading. Everyone, including myself, appreciates it when people try and help out the community and shed light on a subject especially for those who are "noobs" or don't know what they're doing as far as compiling, I would simply suggest making the OP more clear and in a more systematic manner, or doing some more research and compiling it completely before posting your full instructions. That way no one gets lost along the way, and don't make unnecessary mistakes.

[Atrix 4G Android Development] ccxp188:
can i do it on ubuntu 11.10?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] munchy_cool:
i guess you can as long as it is 64 bit
[Atrix 4G Android Development] samcripp:
yes, pretty much any ubuntu 10.10 and above, google recommends 10.10 and for the sake of not running into errors doing the simple part i suggest you go with 10.10. ima do you guys all a favor and make a post with a complete instruction for cm7 compiling. maybe tomorrow at some point no promise, and ill do it right here in this same post!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bendieckman:
Hi I hope someone can help me. I have searched this forum but could not find a similar situation to what I ended up in...

I tried to install a custom ROM on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 using the CWM/Odin.

This seemed succesful but was not, it did not start but was stuck in the Samsung logo.

So I tried entering the CWM and download and install an original Samsung ROM. I can get it into CWM, but CWM cannot enter the download mode only the other mode.

In this mode all options are available:

- reboot

- apply update from SD card

- wipe data/factory reset

- wipe cache partition

All options have been tried without any luck. In the update from SD card it only shows ...

or Error opening /data/media: no such file or directory

Any ideas how I could get this directory back or put a ROM on the Samsung in this situation.

Odin does see the Galaxy but as I cannot get it into Download mode I am unable to download anything to it.

All or any suggestions are very welcome!
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaukassus:
1. CWM (Clockworkmod) =! Odin.

In the beginning, you don't have CWM installed. You install CWM, by flashing CWM on your Phone with odin.

Odin is the Windows Programm, that is used to flash Recoveries/ROM's/Kernels onto your device.

2. it seems, that you still have the default Samsung recovery installed, that meand CWM is not yet flashed on your device.

If the flashing process was succesful (I suppose it was done with odin), but you can't get past the Samsung logo, that means, you probably flashed a rom, that isn't made for your device(ex. a GTab 10.1v Rom).

If you DID flash a wrong rom, then you probably ****ed up the partition table and removed the Download Mode(Odin Mode). Strange thing is, that you still have the Stock recovery.

Could you please redirect us to the rom you downloaded?

Also, did you flash with a repartition on and/or a .pit file?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bendieckman:
hi Kaukassus,

thanks for the reply.

OK I checked the files and what I did.

I think I totaly screwed this up. It was a theme I tried to install the AOSP_HC_v1.3_3G+KI1.

I rooted the Tab. So first when the Tab was still functioning installed it on the TAB via USB.

Than tried to install this via update from SD card.

This appeared to work initially. But hung at the start.

After that I tried (via Power Volume Up) wipe data/factory reset.

No luck.

After that I tried wipe cache partition followed by wipe data/factory reset.

And this is what I got now..

Bad news is the Tab was/is a X-mas present and I managed to screw it up even before I officially got it !-(
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] muzzy996:
The valuable lesson you're learning is that you need to be aware exactly what things you're flashing and their compatibility with your device and the software it's running.

You haven't mentioned what specific device you're using or the specific things you've tried to flash (as kaukassus pointed out, direct links to threads where you got the files you tried to flash are best). Not sure if you're aware but not all GT 10.1's are equal; there are several models out there and each and every ROM is specific to a particular device. Verizon LTE GT 10.1's like mine can't take ROMs from any other device for example, it's likely that the new T-Mobile 4G one's wont be able to trade ROMs with Verizon ones . . you get the point.

When you say you installed via USB what exactly did you mean? If you simply copied a zip file via USB to the tab to flash in recovery mode that's not installing; the flashing from recovery may be but the file copy operation is not. If on the other hand you pushed things via ADB or you flash using Odin software then that's a different story.

Best thing to do at this point is to properly identify your device, look for a stock recovery image for Odin and flash that via Odin to your device. At that point you can start from scratch again to build what you want.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bendieckman:
Thanks Muzzy996.

You are right. I was in a rush and should have taken more time.

However I am getting somewhere. Managed to get in download mode twice today, don't ask me how. This Tab just will not go into download mode!

However I did not have the stock ROM ready to be installed.

Will keep you updated.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h2bmess:
i have the same problem. i just rooted my device was going to overclock. decided to save my rom with rom manager. saved it device went to reboot now the samsung galaxy 10.1 shows up screen goes dim then shuts off, and will cont. do this. i can get into download mode but recovery will not work. is there anyway to download my stock rom. im using verizion 4g 10.1 any help would be great, btw sorry to thread jack :)
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bendieckman:
Problem solved.

Managed to get it in download mode again and install stock rom via Odin.

Appeared to work fine. But kep switching off, even after full night of charging.

This morning Tab was dead after recharging whole night..

Got it back on by holding volume down and power button down.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h2bmess:
i found a stock rom and im trying to upload it via odin, however odin does not find my tab? any ideas. btw congrats on getting ur tab back
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brian-UK:
I crashed both my I9000 (galaxy s) flashing custom roms and my tab 10.1 (editing some system files) both ended up just looping but managed to get both back. I purchased a small connector of ebay £1.59 that has just a resistor accross pins 4&5 331k I think anyway plugging this into most samsung devices boots them into download mode. Even before getting my resistor I managed to get things working I think that you'd have to be properly unlucky to really brick a samsung I've flashed both my devices with all sorts of crap with my little resistor I just reset them with ease.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roballo11:
did you ever resolve this issue? i am currently faced with the same issue.
[Android Themes] Shrapnel2:
NOTE: I'm currently not using android any more so I cannot in anyway continue this theme. If anyone would like to port it and continue it to MIUI V4 they are most welcome and encouraged to. Thanks

I've been working on this for quite a while and finally I'm ready to release my first full theme FineLine in two colours, blue and orange. I mainly wanted a dark clean minimalistic theme with bright hightlight's making it easy to see what's happening even though it is a dark theme. All menu icons have been changed to a pixel style aswell as the setting icons. Some of these may not be quite as representing as the originals but hopefully they should be all right.

Icons:

The icons in the photo are the Signa Communtiy icons, they do not belong to me therefore I'm not including them in the theme, but I recommend you download them from here because they're awesome and the go well with the theme.

Things that are themed:

Framework

Systemui

Music

File Explorer

Browser

Settings

Lockscreen

Contacts/Dialer

Phone

Monitor

Gallery

Sidekick

Messaging

Clock

Notes

Credits:

Cothek: a few of his pngs are used(actually turns there aren't any of them used but still his Phazed Orange theme was very inspiring)

Miui: For the awesome rom!

The creator of the Desire backgrounds(If someone knows the creator please let me know)

Wallbase.cc for the Lockscreen and Homescreen wallpapers

Creators of the Signa icons

Screenshots

I keep having issues with screenshots so go here and check them out.

Changelog

V1.1

-Light grey around popup options for easier view viewing of black text

-Icons back to stock

-Added Miui Notes menu icons

V1.2

-Fixed a big bug preventing parts being applied.

Downloads:

Purple V1.2

[Android Themes] andrewlax120:
wow this theme is exactly what ive been looking for for the longest time...by the best theme ive used since i stated using miui.

one question though.

does anyone have the ICS lockscreen when applying this theme?
[Android Themes] IceBlurr:
Hi,

Very nice work there, but i have the impression the toggles in the settings aren't themed in the blue version. Is it only for me ?

Moreover, the blue version lacks the lockscreen ^^

[Android Themes] Shrapnel2:
Just to everyone having issues with downloading, lockscreens and things not being themed. I set the default theme and then downloaded the two mtz's through the download links, put them on to my phone and they worked fine. So I'm not quite sure what the problems are and must be your phones previous theme or something. Thanks for everyone's positive comments!
[Android Themes] fidde85:
really like this theme... awesome work...
[Android Themes] XTRoRDiNAiRE:
yea i figured it out:D to theme the lockscreen you have to set it to default lockscreen

very clean theme by the way very super clean
[Android Themes] dead-I:
Great looking theme. The only problem that i'm having is with black text on a dark background in some of the menus.
[Android Themes] fergie716:
I had some issues with Tapatalk, text and menu were both white. I toggled compatibility mode and that fixed the issue
[Android Themes] dead-I:
Tried changing compatibility but it doesn't seem to fix the problem though.
[Android Themes] atanu89:
Thank you so much for this mate, its a great theme!!!
[Android Themes] Shrapnel2:
Ok, so there is a problem with menus and black text. Other themes fix this by using a brighter colour around this area(eg the ICS/Blackice theme uses a bright blue), so do you guys want to see this area changed to white, a mid grey or left how it is? Let me know!
[Android Themes] mikey2487:
very nice theme! love the minimal color! you thinking about making any other colors or like a rainbow edition i think would be sick? each part has a different. idk just talking haha keep up the good work!

by the way you listen to some good music!
[Android Themes] dead-I:
A light grey should work.
[Android Themes] kimozabe:
Fantastic theme, a keeper.

Although I find all icons misplaced or oversized for the dock. They get so close the edge and indicators. Fixable?
[Android Themes] Shrapnel2:
I'm pretty sure I know what your talking about and this has been fixed in V1.1. Check it out and report back. Cheers
[Android Themes] fergie716:
Thanks for the update. Unfortunately it looks like it distorted the dialer and contacts app
[Android Themes] Shrapnel2:
I tried this out for my self and it's fine. The problem is that the settings and firewall icons are in the framework so they show up. But the paste and contact icons are in the contacts, now if you were using the themed contacts/dialer(I can see you aren't) the correct icons would appear. Understand? Cheers :)
[Android Themes] koupa:
Also on SMS app the messages appear in white color on white background. It's impossible to read the history. Please fix it.

Apart from that it's a wonderful theme. Probably it will be my default theme.
[Android Themes] Noodles_44:
Love this theme, though having same issues as above posters. Status bar and notifications not themed, and white text on light backgrounds on contacts and SMS.
[Android Themes] David Horn:
Can't get it to work properly on Galnet ICS. :-(

When applying the theme (either blue or orange) it shows "Selected 6 components" and only partially applies. The bulk of the theme is there but the status bar, lockscreen, and all the apps are missed.

Frustrating because it looks like a truly awesome theme!
[Android Themes] fergie716:
Like other people said, apps are being missed when applying the entire updated theme

I applied the whole update, rebooted twice and the dialer/contacts app were not being themed
[Android Themes] nathan1314:
Like the theme, looks great.

The notification area is white along with the text, makes it hard to read.

Other than that great job keep up the awesome work.

Thanks
[Android Themes] Shrapnel2:
Ok everyone. So there are some pretty big issues with the latest release and things not being themed. That's why things are hard to read. If you've got V1 use that if not you might have to wait a little bit. Sorry!
[Android Themes] rockb.blues:
Thanks for the heads up. Glad to hear its getting looked into.

Can anyone share the v1 mtz for orange should they still have it?

My favorite theme out so far!
[Android Themes] Shrapnel2:
Ok everyone. 1.2 ready to roll. Fixed it, was something in the description xml preventing parts from being applied. Have fun!
[Android Themes] brainmaster:
Thanks for the great theme, it goes well with my icons.

Do I have your permission to include your theme in my MIUI ROM?

Keyboards ready to roll for both colours. Sorry, currently no screenshots as I'm using ICS but I assure you if your using the theme it is a perfect match and if you love the theme you should love the keyboard too. Enjoy

Sorry, no plans for status icons, I like the standard ones, they get the job done, they're minimal and easy to see. I often think different statusbar icons can look tacky aswell(just my opinion). You can modify the systemui part of theme and put your own icons in if you want though. Cheers

[Android Themes] Try4Ce:
Loving this theme! Very very well made, nice, clean and modern.

But I have some issues with it.

1. As seen in the images, if you start to type a contacts name or company, you wont see anything until you mark the text.

And for the other screens, I think they speak for themselves ;)

Tho the last screen shows the missing On-Off indicators (german layout).

Really hope you can fix it!
[Android Themes] Lyholm:
Wonderful theme.. Really loving it!

But I might be having a small problem, although I'm not sure. Is the File Explorer supposed to look like this? It's sort of "the odd one out" when looking at the rest of the beautiful theme.
[Android Themes] Shrapnel2:
I can try and fix it I guess, I knew about this myself but dismissed it as a small bug. And as for the black text in the theme manager I'm not sure, I tried to fix before the original release but I couldn't, really sorry but atleast they're quite minor parts of the theme.

As for this I originally made it all dark like the rest of theme eg like the music player but I couldn't find the hex values that changed the text in each tile so it would be dark text on a dark background proving hard to read so my only choice was to use white. Sorry, it was a compromise

Purple....uploading now :)

Just a note to everyone, I'm currently using ICS(and loving it) and though it doesn't take too long to switch back to Miui to fix things it is very inconvenient. I feel even with these few minor bugs it is still a solid and complete theme so don't expect any major changes. When Miui 4 comes out (which is gonna be awesome, ICS and Miui all mixed together!)I'll be looking forward to re-releasing this on it assuming the Miui team implement a theme engine. So Cheers for now!
[Android Themes] fergie716:
Awesome man thank you so much! I also switch between MIUI and ICS for the NS4G.. Apparently we're getting a BETA of Miui 4 this Friday! Thanks again
