Another EDIT:

Well. I formatted the phone in recovery mode and managed to boot, and it is rooted. But This is getting old. Each time I root or boot a custom ROM, I have to wipe my memory. Any ideas?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xBeerdroiDx:
#1. whenever you flash stock firmware via odin you must boot into recovery and wipe data/factory reset or you will find yourself sitting at the samsung logo.

#2. when you flash a custom rom, you will have to follow proper wipe procedures. if you're flashing a different custom rom than what is on your device, you need to perform a full wipe (which will erase your shtuff) before you flash the rom. if you are just flashing an update/new release of the rom you have on your device, you can simply wipe caches before flashing. these wipes allow the new software to function properly and leave little room for bugs and problems running.

this is the way things go. get familiar with the wipe and flash portion of the guide below and with the app "titanium backup". cheers

The above will likely be your best bet. Note that the normal unlock procedure wipes the device, which likely will not be good for your salvaging. You will need to unlock with the method that doesn't force the wipe. This would be your best bet for achieving that.

I've done that (well, sort of, I didn't delete the whole directoy, only the the files and the drivers directory in it and kept the folders for the installed programs) and it didn't work out, AS 3.8 still wouldn't open or set up a partnership.

I am assuming most guys are using XP, if that is the case, you could also delete the application data files

c:\ -> docs and settings-> [user profile] -> application data -> microsoft -> active sync -> profiles

you can delete the profiles folder or the entire active sync folder, and if you cannot see the application data folders, you will need to show the hidden files tools -> view -> show hidden files

Hope that helps

Hey guys,

I recently decided I would like to learn how to build for android. Rather than build a new rom however (there are so damn many), I was thinking about building a kernel. See what I can bring to the table.

I did some research and instantly found myself in a sea of information (most of which was outdated or not applicable).

I was wondering if anyone could direct me to some specific sites or pages for:

kernel education

building education (focus on kernels)

galaxy s3 kernel dev (at&t specific for start)

Noobish question, but I figured I would ask the experts and see whats out there.

Thanks in advance!!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aeppacher:
You Sir are a scholar and gentleman! This is exactly what I needed! I will definitely bookmark this thread and be back to ask you questions later on. I totally get what you mean by the people who treat you like you should know everything. Thats actually the reason I am here. Got tired of a dev treating people like he was too good to care so I decided why not learn myself and provide something to the community. Thank you so much man. I actually figured I would need Linux and so I tried to install it last night. Unfortunately Ubuntu 12.04 wouldn't install. I think it has to do with my Intel 4000 graphics card is disabled (by my oem) and my nvidia cards aren't working with it. I couldn't even get into command line because it was so small I couldn't read what I was typing. In the end I managed to get 13.04 to work but I realize I will have to install 12.04 on top of it for compatibility.

Quick question now, any recommendation on 32 bit or 64 bit? My rig can easily handle the 64 but I understand with Linux things can get finicky in terms of compatibility
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ahagersr:
Where's my thanks???? Wahhhh!

But seriously, I've never had an environment setup on a 32 bit distribution, I don't have a bad ass computer my any means, but it runs 64-bit so that's what I do. You can run 32-bit on a 64-bit environment, but you can't make a 32-bit environment run 64.

As it happens, I have a fresh Ubuntu 13.04 installation on my machine, the only thing setup in it is the Android SDK. I was planning on playing but I hadn't gotten around to it. I'll setup an environment on mine, and Git Clone klin1344's kernel sources for his bleeding edge 4.2.2 kernel and if you haven't done it by then, I'll write out everything I had to do to get 13.04 working. Honestly, it should be pretty much an exact copy past of the apt get commands for 12.04 as long as all the proper repositories are in order, there might be a hiccup or two but nothing bad.

I've been wanting to play with klin1344's source anyways, he uses the Linaro tool chain, and I've only ever used Arm Eabi, so I'm curious as to how different the environment would have to be, if at all, to make a kernel from his source that's optimized properly. I'll send him a PM and ask him about that.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747

Edit: To clarify, the 32-bit libraries needed to compile android from source aren't technically necessary for kernel development, but they are readily available for 64-bit Ubuntu systems.

Another clarification, there SHOULD be no reason to attempt to install 12.04 "on top" of your existing 13.04, although I might suggest a simple Google search on compiling android from source in 13.04 to see if there are any guides. I can't use 12.04 on my Asus machine. Not without a lot of hassle (I'm too lazy to merge grub/efi fixes and boot-repair into my own live image) due to Secure Boot/EFI/Grub, I can use 12.10 which I know for a fact never gave me problems building unless I made a mistake, but 13.04 (64) is already setup for dual-boot with Windows 8, so that's what I will use. If I can build in Arch Linux, we can build in 13.04. ;)

That's a guide I found for build Android from source on 13.04, although you only plan to do kernels, once your feet are wet you'll end up needing this stuff, most likely.

I'll wait to see what klin1344 says to me about the Linaro tool chain before I set mine up, though I'll probably go ahead and follow the early stages of this guide for my system. I'll get all the libraries, etc, I just won't download the actual source from Google. I don't have time to even try to get a true AOSP rom running lol. Although, if I thought I could do it I would find the time.

It's sad that CM is the closest we get, but at least it's not like CM7. I'm rather fond of the minimal approach they've came back to.

My sincerest apologies. Twice the thanks sent your way. I knew 32 bit could run on 64 bit but I remember having issues in the past with it not working. Must have just been me. I have heard of various toolchains like linaro, bionic and arm but never really knew what they were. I will do some reading on that. In terms of progress I am bummed because I have to send off my laptop for 2 weeks on monday :( so it will suck but hopefully I make some progress before that.

Why are you recommending pulling another devs link rather than from samsung sources?

Thanks again for all the help. I hope you are patient because you will be my go to guy for now on ;)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] ahagersr:
I don't know what rom you run on a regular basis, but I run 4.2.2 - CM. Samsung is apparently just as bad as HTC at releasing source. I haven't seen (I could be wrong, I am new to this device) any 4.2.2 roms with a Samsung kernel, everything is pretty much an ENHANCED CM kernel. I was drawn to the Bleeding Edge kernel because klin1344 actually has his source ahead of CyanogenMod. He merges CM commits, but he's also pulling things in from upstream, from other sources, to make his kernel perform the way it does. As it is bleeding edge the upstream merges could always break something you don't anticipate.

In my mind, it makes the most sense to watch his kernel while you learn. That doesn't mean it's what you should do. If it wasn't for the Cyanogen boys, we wouldn't have any 4.2.2 capable kernels that are specific to our device. Those guys put in a lot of work to make it happen. More than you could fathom until you've tried it yourself. Of course, they make it look easy.

klin1344's doing real development on his tree. He's not just cloning CM and renaming it, he's merging stuff from upstream, stuff that hasn't made it through any of the other kernels for nor device yet. In my mind, that's a perfect tree to learn on.

If you like Touchwiz roms, then you can start from Samsung source, no doubt, but the 4.2.2 roms appear to all use kernels that descended from CM's tree. I haven't poked around enough yet to be sure, but that's how it looks to me so far. Whatever kernel source you choose, you should be willing to run a rom that it will support daily. It's the only way you'll ever see what your tinkering is doing for you.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] aeppacher:
So much for open source. Yeah I guess that will drop once we get the official 4.2.2 touchwiz update (potentially never with how its going). I run carbon rom currently so I definitely would compile a 4.2.2 kernel. I like what you said about building off of klins source but I feel sort of like I would be botching up some original and creative code. I like the idea of taking CMs git and working off of that since it is like working with the most basic version of code. It is a shame that almost all kernels are just a branch off of CMs source, it unfortunately assumes they have the best code, which I don't deny, it's just a shame not to get the OEMs source. Can't believe CM codes the kernels themselves, that sounds so friggin time consuming and technical. And they do it for so many devices!

I am really pumped to build. The more I read the better. I read that a tool chain is like a group of programs that does the compiling for you (dumbed down definition). My question is how does this differ from one toolchain to the other and how does it compile the kernel differently? I am just wondering what the benefit of different compilers would produce.

EDIT: I'm just gonna thank every post in this thread from you btw :)
