[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evodev:
you know regarding the warranty, all you do is reset the phone to stock, and they usually dont notice anything, but when my microusb port stopped working, I gave them my rooted and broken one, and they gave me a new one. popped in my old SD card, rooted it, and flashed a nandroid. but anyways, if you get repaired through Sprint (The best way to do it), I say you should just root it, and I can create a custom rom for you that removes all wifi connection and such, which you can add back later if you want to go against their wishes.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbucz24:
I guess I have a side question... these phones are 2 years old. Nobody is selling them new anymore and factory only has 1 year warranty. You shouldn't have a warranty, unless you bought an after market one right? I got mine used in eBay an they tried selling me a warranty.

Either way, the best answer to this question is like has been said. Make a custom rom without wifi or any radio.

Lol, install a rom without a supported kernel. That will Bork it :p

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] triptosyll:
I have been trying for 2 days now to figure out how to fix this error, but I'm stumped.

After choosing my device in the 'lunch' menu, I receive this:

Build/core/config.mk:145:***no config file found for TARGET_DEVICE. Stop.

I have seen this error here and there while searching, but no one seems to have an answer on how to fix it. I have the vendorsetup file (I say that because that's the only info I get from people is 'make a file named vendorsetup.mk and add this to it'). I have synced sbrissens fascinate and aries-common repo files, and no matter what I do, it fetches the same error.

Any help would b much appreciated. I'm at my wits end here. This is driving me nuts! (Not that i get the error, but that I can't seem to find a fix ANYWHERE)

Hi

I assume you're adding extra devices into the aosp lunch menu. All the info for finding out what's wrong is in the error message; Have you had a look at line 145 in build/core/config.mk? On my JB AOSP tree it's a check for BoardConfig.mk. At a guess I would say you are missing a BoardConfig.mk, It'd be useful if you could link to the device repo you are using

Hope that Helps
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] triptosyll:
Yes I added a device. And yes that's what mine is checking for too. That's why this is so confusing. I HAVE a boardconfig.mk file. It just won't seem to find it....

Here's the repo I used. Its sbrissens. It has some common files with other carrier variants, so I got the aries-common files from his repo, and the fascinatemtd files too:

https://github.com/sbrissen/android_device_samsung_fascinatemtd

That's JUST his fascinatemtd files. I have downloaded the jb branch of the aries-common files too. If u want a look at those, they're on his repo page too.

Thanks for getting back to me. I can't seem to get anyone to help. My posts get buried beneath a bunch of others' that by the time the op for the guide I'm using gets online to help out, my post is buried and most of the time isn't seen.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trevd:
Not a problem, It took me a while to get a build that would boot on a device, it's a case of reading, then reading some more, the android building google group is a useful resource.

I've just clone the repo you linked to and successfully "lunched" it, looks like there's some hardcoded paths in there.

so you'll want to use device/samsung/fascinatemtd as the path for the device files.... It still doesn't build as it needs some vendor specific files etc, but that's your adventure. :D

Whenever you run into build problems the *.mk files tell all. It might be useful to read up on what it takes to add a new device as that will give you an insight into how the build system "glues" together.

Good Luck
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] triptosyll:
So could my problem b that I downloaded the files from his repo as a .zip, instead of cloning it with terminal? Cuz if that doesn't do it, I don't know why it won't lunch for me. I pulled them as a zip, unzipped it and placed it in device/samsung/ fascinatemtd. Should I try it with the terminal instead?

________________________________

Bacon in my coffee, please? You don't have bacon?! Unacceptable!!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trevd:
Shouldn't really make any difference unless your permissions are at fault, I tend to live in a bash shell anyway so from your aosp tree something like this might do the trick

cd device/samsung
git clone https://github.com/sbrissen/android_device_samsung_fascinatemtd.git fascinatemtd
cd ../..
source build/envsetup.sh
lunch full_fascinatemtd-userdebug

If your still having problems though I would first make sure you can lunch one of the standard AOSP options and also make sure your using bash as I think the build system has some bashism in it.

You've got me buddy, not a clue what you've done :confused: I'd be tempted to write that one off as a bad job and start again..... I wouldn't worry about syncing the fascinate repo's at first just make sure you can get a clean AOSP build..... Just for reference Google's Guide to Building the AOSP although your probably already following that. :D

It' is very much one step at a time with this until you get an idea of what lives where and how it all fits. I must admit it did take me a good couple of go's before I got it right myself, Thank <insert deity here> for unlimted bandwidth.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] triptosyll:
Yeah, but the LAST thing I wanna do is resync the repo. That takes SO damned long. That's all I can do tho isn't it? If I wanna start over? Delete the source, and re sync it?

:) Unless you want to get deep inside the animals, so to speak, but I think at this stage you're probably best off starting again otherwise you may "waste" a good couple of hours chasing errors, you'll probably learn a thing or two along the way it all depends how you look at it really, every cloud etc...... I suppose you could just try deleting your WORKING_DIRECTORY/device directory and just resync that to begin with. see if that cures what ale's ya', I find repo sync -j16 speeds things up a little as well ;)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lithid-cm:
No need to resync the repo at all. All your changes are topical. You can run a "repo forall -c "git reset HARD"".

You can also do something else. Go into your repo path folder. Hit control h to show hidden files. Ctrl a selects them all then unselect the .repo folder by holding Ctrl while clicking on it. Delete all the folders and open your terminal. Do a repo sync. Only this time you are not downloading 7 gigs of stuff. Everything already exists in that .repo folder. Removing all and resyncing just refreshes everything.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] triptosyll:
That's kinda funny u just posted that, cuz I was just looking at your cm compiler thread, and saw the link to the compile jb on Ubuntu thread, where u explained how to do that.

I have not done enough research as to why it isn't working automatically for you. but I checked build/envsetup.sh and it checks for the TARGET_ARCH during the load. This also defines everywhere else, the error saying that it isn't defined isn't right. Somewhere after you choose the device, it defines the arch being arm. this is needed for the kernel and well as other arguments later in the build.
