[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Decepticaons:
Ok so i am getting my environment all set up and this is what I have done so far.

1) You need the following:

-JDK 6 if you wish to build Jellybean.

Code:

$ sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk -Python 2.4 -- 2.7, which you can download from python.org. Or:

Code:

$ sudo apt-get install python -Git 1.7 or newer. You can find it at git-scm.com. Or:

Code:

$ sudo apt-get install git-core -Android SDK:•Download the SDK here: http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

•Extract the SDK and place it in your home directory.

•I renamed my SDK to android-sdk to make it easier to navigate to.

•Go to your home folder, press Ctrl+H to show hidden files, and open up your .bashrc file.

•Add these lines at the bottom of the file:

Code:

# Android tools

export PATH=${PATH}:~/android-sdk/tools

export PATH=${PATH}:~/android-sdk/platform-tools

export PATH=${PATH}:~/bin

•Find your .profile file and add this at the bottom of the file:

Code:

PATH="$HOME/android-sdk/tools:$HOME/android-sdk/platform-tools:$PATH"

•You have now successfully installed the Android SDK.

•To check for updates issue this into your terminal:

Code:

$ android

2) Install required packages. 64-bit (recommended)

Code:

$ sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential \

zip curl zlib1g-dev libc6-dev lib32ncurses5-dev ia32-libs \

x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev lib32readline5-dev lib32z-dev \

libgl1-mesa-dev g++-multilib mingw32 tofrodos python-markdown \

libxml2-utils On newer versions of Ubuntu such as 11.10 you may need to do the following:

Code:

$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libX11.so.6 /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libX11.so Building on Ubuntu 12.04 is currently only experimentally supported and is not guaranteed to work on branches other than master.

Code:

$ sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential \

zip curl libc6-dev libncurses5-dev:i386 x11proto-core-dev \

libx11-dev:i386 libreadline6-dev:i386 libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 \

libgl1-mesa-dev g++-multilib mingw32 openjdk-6-jdk tofrodos \

python-markdown libxml2-utils xsltproc zlib1g-dev:i386

$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libGL.so 3) Configure your USB.

Code:

$ gksudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules Inside of this blank text file insert:

Code:

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="19D2", MODE="0666" 4) Save the file and close it and then issue this command:

Code:

$ sudo chmod a+r /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules 5) Install the repo:

Code:

$ mkdir ~/bin

$ PATH=~/bin:$PATH

$ curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo

$ chmod a+x ~/bin/repo 6) Initialize the repo:

Code:

$ mkdir WORKING_DIRECTORY

$ cd WORKING_DIRECTORY

$ repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-4.1.1_r3 6.1) For people who have already done a repo init:

Code:

$ cd WORKING_DIRECTORY

$ repo init -b android-4.1.1_r1

$ repo sync 7) When prompted, enter your real name and email address.

8) Gather the files:

Code:

$ repo sync

This is where I get stuck. The repo will sync for a good 2 hours, and then it will fail in the end. I cant remember the error and I am at work.I was informed by DK that i was trying to sync AOSP. So do I take over here right with sk8ers guide, or do i keep going with the guide? Here are the final steps.

9) Continue onto adding a device

~How To Add A Device To The List~

1) Find the github for your device you wish to add. (For me it is the HTC Evo 3D CDMA)

2) Now navigate to the location you are going clone the device tree to:

Code:

$ cd WORKING_DIRECTORY/device

$ mkdir htc 3) Clone the github device tree from remote to local: (The shooter would be whatever you want that folder to be named so make sure it is whatever standard name would be for your device, example: Nexus One [passion], Nexus S [crespo], Motorola Droid [sholes], HTC Incredible [inc], etc.)

Code:

$ git clone git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_htc_shooter.git shooter 4) Now navigate into the folder:

Code:

$ cd shooter 5) Connect phone to computer and make sure USB debugging is enabled and you have adb set up.

6) Extract Device Proprietary Files:

Code:

$ ./extract-files.sh 7) Navigate back to your home directory for building:

Code:

$ cd ~/WORKING_DIRECTORY 8) Prepare To Compile:

Code:

$ source build/envsetup.sh Or:

Code:

$ . build/envsetup.sh 9) Get your list of devices:

Code:

$ lunch 10) Pick your poison.

11) Now compile:

Code:

$ make -j# Or for a flashable zip:

Code:

$ make -j# otapackage
