...more about using lunch instead of breakfast:

[Breakfast] looks to the source that you have repo-init'd to find further dependencies, and writes an additional local_manifest.xml.

This approach will not work if there is not an existing branch (mm6.0) set up for the device that you are building.

[Lunch] looks at the your device tree as synced by your manually-generated local_manifest (without looking to the vendor's repos for more information) and sets up the build environment for the device specified in the lunch command.

* You have the option of manually editing the <vendor>.dependencies file to control the sync behavior, but I am not a fan of that approach, so I typically do as you have started; create the local_manifest.xml, and delete the existing <vendor>.dependencies file.

My recommendation for lunch:

Create local_manifest for your device

Repo-sync (to download the repositories specified by your new local_manifest)

slimify your device source (including deletion of <vendor>.dependencies)

lunch slim_<device>-userdebug

The lunch command will mention the lack of a <vendor>.dependencies file, but will continue to setup the environment for the device based on the trees synced by the local_manifest.

Just to close the loop;

After some input from SlimRoms' Josue Rivera , I was able to get MotoDoze hooked to slim's settings with a few changes to the package.

https://github.com/cyril279/android...mmit/1ab792a61f397f50d3d445bc68378a02b5322e10

I have not taken on the challenge of integrating slim actions (each gesture can be assigned to other actions).

Apparently m8-common, oppo-common, d850, and ghost, all have screen-off-gesture support, and can therefore be setup for custom actions.

cheers

Hey guys (long time no see).

Just wanted to ask is someone already building for Nexus 6P? :)
[Android Builders Collective] NovaSlim:
Don't think so. Looks like(search "Angler" in this thread) those who want to build don't have the money for the phone, and those who are getting the phone have their shipment delayed to around Dec 11th.
[Android Builders Collective] Mikulec:
[MENTION=2033478]Yank555[/MENTION] is waiting for the arrival of his 6P, we have to wait for him.
[Android Builders Collective] DroidIt!:
Posted in the wrong thread....so I'll try again :)

Hey guyz?*??*Just a quick question. Does anybody do Slim 6.0 builds for the flo? I've been going through some life changes for quite awhile and so that's why I've been absent, but I'm finding myself with some more freedom and free time again. Well, I'm seriously thinking about getting my build box going again and was thinking about doing maybe a once weekly slim flo build based on [MENTION=2033478]Yank555[/MENTION]'s work...any objectors??*:)
[Android Builders Collective] NovaSlim:
Would love to have slim 6.0 builds(hopefully with latest layer commits) running on my flo, AFAIK there isn't any active builders for flo right now.
[Android Builders Collective] DroidIt!:
OK, cool. Yeah just starting to get back into the swing of things. :) Got a dual boot setup and gonna put Kubuntu onto my second partition this evening. I'll probably be able (providing I don't run into any MAJOR Snafu's) to have a flo build by I would think by mid next week. Kind of excited to get back into it. :)
[Android Builders Collective] endomatic:
I wholeheartedly second this!
[Android Builders Collective] DroidIt!:
That's why I was kinda thinking about doing flo builds. Still going through a lot of life changes and going back to school for a new degree. So I'll be cash strapped for a bit and don't see myself getting rid of my flo any time soon. Plus, IMO M really seems to have breathed some new life into it. For anybody willing to experiment :) try flashing the latest ElementalX, set the CPU at 1.7 GHz on Ondemand and the GPU at 477 on simple governor...trust me ;)
[Android Builders Collective] DroidIt!:
On an unrelated note :) if I could get a new tablet http://www.androidheadlines.com/2015/12/google-pixel-c-spotted-benchmarked.html

[MENTION=5193466]DroidIt![/MENTION] I hope things are well and nothing serious. We have noticed your absence.....

I look forward to your flo builds

[Android Builders Collective] efan3719:
looks like a nice tablet indeed.

hope all is well. i just got my Nexus 5 repaired, and I am also hanging on to my Flo for a little while yet. you've inspired me to try to get a MM build going. :good:
[Android Builders Collective] Yank555:
By all means, go ahead ;)

Wanted to do the Slim6 bringup for flo, but I just lack time and am still in midst of doing hh and shamu and angler is about to arrive :(

I could be running your builds for a change :D

:) I have some fixing to do...and I'll be in hangouts pretty soon to bug you guys I'm sure. Yeah, things just got crazy with me for work for a bit which ended up prompting me to do a career changed. Ended up signing up to do a Masters in Internet Marketing...to start :)

But back to the machine, I was playing last night and messed up my dual boot on about the lowest level so I'm gonna right that ship today and go from there.

BTW [MENTION=2757264]efan3719[/MENTION] :) If you beat me to it go right ahead and post it. I never DID actually do a first build...I was right next to it, but never hit the button. That's right when things started going sideways with work. I may run into some things that'll take me a bit to work through, but you'll probably have me beat...maybe I'll pick your brain :)

:) One more, just decided...dual boot's gone. Gonna get back to the real deal, all Linux :)
[Android Builders Collective] efan3719:
well i got a hammerhead build to complete with little headache but when i tried Flo it pooped out immediately. :crying: lol

I tried going full Linux for a while, but there are still a few things i need Windows for. Mostly games, and fixing other people's computers lol. and I get a huge discount on Windows software from work so it was basically free. :good:
[Android Builders Collective] DroidIt!:
:) Funny thing is I'm getting a free macbook from signing up for this school program. I would have never imagined owning anything apple really, not that all their stuff is terrible per se, just the price and incomparability mostly with ANYTHING that was a big line in the sand for me. Well, in about another hour I'll be doing a clean Kubuntu install and get all my building stuffs in place. I have been doing some reading and I THINK I may know what your issue is with the flo. I'll see if I can find it again a little bit later this afternoon and I'll let ya know what I find out. It was a quick scan I did but I think it was just about like any other device, you just gotta pull the correct proprietary lines into your build...or just ask Yank or Gary :p
[Android Builders Collective] efan3719:
cool. lemme know what you find out. i might ask [MENTION=2640853]Garrykd[/MENTION] but he's kind of a weirdo so i try not to talk to him... ;) :p :cool:

[Android Builders Collective] efan3719:

Thanks for noticing:p it does seem to attract the chicks :D

Lunching flo works for me....I get the same message, but lunch completes.

Maybe check your source and any changes, then repo sync (or perhaps force sync) and try again?

Edit: on a whim I tried building but there are things missing in the kernel, wouldn't build. Have to wait for a full bringup.
[Android Builders Collective] DroidIt!:
Now THIS is what I'm talking about...gettin down to bidnus :silly:
[Android Builders Collective] DroidIt!:
Okies guys, kinda gave myself a headache...but got my pc all switched to kubuntu and my build enviro's all set up. Should I do a repo sync straight from Slim or should I do it from yours [MENTION=2033478]Yank555[/MENTION]? I know you always do tweaks and tend to be the one to put out builds and such that's why I was thinking about using your repo as a base, IDK whatchu guys think? :)

---------- Post added at 09:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:22 PM ----------

Oh and [MENTION=2757264]efan3719[/MENTION] :) I know you said you stay with Win partly because of games. Installed steam for linux os too while I was at it and loaded up Civ 5 just to see how it would do and it runs perfect. I'm gonna try something though with my games that steam says aren't compatable with Linux...well probably Monday. I have an idea for a workaround maybe or maybe not using WINE, WINE may not be neccesary though, we'll see ;)
[Android Builders Collective] efan3719:
I've never really had that much luck with WINE. but i never really tried making it through the first road block or two.
[Android Builders Collective] DroidIt!:
No me neither, but it's been awhile since I tried it. Well, me and the wife are going out to an old style 1800's historical village tomorrow so I'm gonna be out for a bit, but where are you doing your repo sync's from? I looked at Yank's got and saw he has a few different projects on there which makes sense :) but do you go from there or straight slim. I'll try to get my repo sync going tomorrow for while I'm out and about.

[Android Builders Collective] DroidIt!:
OK, well maybe I'll wait to hear back from [MENTION=2033478]Yank555[/MENTION] then and see what he has to say. I'm know for sure I wanna do slim flo builds. I have some pretty good ideas for cherry picks and stuff, just not too sure how much time I'll have to hit it overall just yet. I'm sticking with my job until I get my masters and I'm going to be on an accelerated course, so full Masters in one year from start to finish. ???? Did you figure out you issue BTW or still trying to work through it?

---------- Post added at 06:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:18 AM ----------

Don't think anybody here has the One X, could be wrong but not that I know of...you're in the right place though if you wanna make a go at building for yourself though ????
[Android Builders Collective] Ankru:
I owned the OnePlus one before didn't build myself yet. But maybe - i thought maybe possible to port from Bacon Rom.

Gesendet von meinem ONE E1003 mit Tapatalk
[Android Builders Collective] efan3719:
Umm no haven't figured it out but haven't put a whole lot into it yet. Might give it another crack tomorrow.

Best of luck on your Masters!
[Android Builders Collective] DroidIt!:
If you look at the series of builders in the op, after the list of all the builders here there's a post that has a TON of links that'll walk you through everything from how to set up your build environment to building for your device and so on I just used the setup your build environment myself today and it worked perfectly. Now there'll be hurdles and stuff to get through but it's more than doable if you have a decent machine...and patience. ???? Instead of porting though, I'd probably just do like Efan said though, you can just pull right from stock slim and then you add in your proprietary stuffs for your device and you have yourself a good base. Now I'm not an experienced builder at all, mostly just a lurker here...for just a bit longer anyways ???? but from wiping my whole PC to having my build environment setup ???? plus playing with kubuntu settings some and steam I had everything set up in about 4 hours. Now it's just building ????

---------- Post added at 06:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:37 AM ----------

???? Yeah, first time back to school for me in about 10 years, so it'll be a change for me. Yeah probably not gonna get a whole lot done tomorrow build wise, I might play with seeing if I can get Witcher 3 to play on Linux tomorrow, but probably not going to give it a serious go until Mon. I'd really like to have a flo build by mid-week. Maybe what I'll do is pop into hangouts on Mon and we can put our 4 brain cells together and figure something out ????
[Android Builders Collective] Ankru:
Thanks for the detailed Information. I think will try it too alter all.

Gesendet von meinem ONE E1003 mit Tapatalk
[Android Builders Collective] DroidIt!:
Cool ???? Yeah there's a couple routes you can go. You can run Linux in a VM, dual boot, or wipe windows and do straight Linux. If you've not used Linux before, I'd go with kubuntu or something that you can put KDE on top of. Kubuntu and KDE are the most like windows out of any Linux builds and so would be the easiest to transition into IMO. That's why I personally stick with kubuntu. You'll need a machine with a 64 bit processor too. So those are prerequisites. But just go to google, and say if you decide to do kubuntu, just type "kubuntu x64" into the search box and download the latest iso. An iso is an image file. You can either put the on a USB or DVD. Personally I just always do DVD. I just downloaded kubuntu 15.10, went to filehippo.com and grabbed isoburn and burned the kubuntu iso to the DVD. That makes the DVD a bootable medium. With your pc on you keep the DVD in your DVD tray, restart your PC and when it first boots hit the [ESC] key or whichever key it is to interrupt your booting process. Tell it to boot from your DVD drive and you're in Linux! You can check it out now without doing anything to windows if you want to decided if you like it or not and if not then just reboot. If you decide you want it hit install and you'll get options on how you want it to install on your hard drive including repartitioning and such if you want. I just always use the automated method that uses the whole herd drive. Well, that was a long post :) but that'll get you into Linux. ;)
[Android Builders Collective] theesotericone:
Hey man. I haven't been around these here XDA parts much lately, but if you pop by hangouts I'll be more than happy to add what's left of my brain cells to the pool.

Good luck with the new career path.:cool:
[Android Builders Collective] Yank555:
Thing is, when I spoke about bringup for flo, was that flo repos (kernel/device) are 100% AOSP and not slimmified, hence not buildable, and also vendor repo isn't ready yet either ;)

Once that is done, you should be able to build slim6 (and have stock MM, with CAF stuff in, except if more has gone in by now, which I lacked time to follow lately...

Ah OK :) So for a noob like me I'd probably want to wait for a bit then for flo to be slimed by you or some other otherwise it's vanilla AOSP. I could do it probably if you walked me through it, but that might end up taking more effort than if you just did it eh?

[Android Builders Collective] Ankru:
Thanks for this offer, i have. Basic experience in ubuntu,Linux mint and some other VDR Distributions from HTPC times. So maybe it is not a Bad idea to build myself for this device. I am now on Slim since come up from nexus 5 and it was every time the best Rom for my use.

Gesendet von meinem ONE E1003 mit Tapatalk
[Android Builders Collective] DroidIt!:
Agreed :) I've tried quite a few M rom's since switching mr nexiiii over, and some are really quite good. Right now I've been playing with Dirty Unicorns for a bit (their M builds only exist on their G+ page) and AICP is at a much lower level but it still seems like it will be a really good rom....BUT :) nothing still has Slim beat for stability, battery friendliness and the overall set of tweaks and such we'll end up with. Those others are a good diversion to have something to flash. :D

Since everything is a bit OT lately I don't feel so bad asking this way OT question... I need an emergency phone in a hurry, have no budget, but want something hacker friendly that I would hope can last a few more years. Looking [MENTION=3019572]refurbished[/MENTION] hammerheads for a decent price, what would you geeks buy?
[Android Builders Collective] Garrykd:
I think you are definitely on the right track with a hammerhead. I see it being relevant for at least another year, quite possibly 2.

Power button and battery would be the possible week points.

Go on swappa.com and find yourself a cheap used hammerhead would be what I do(sold mine a month ago). You can try ebay or other websites but beware of buying a stolen phone as they don't check IMEI as thoroughly.

:) For my part of the conversation, I actually just accidentally made that initial post in the gapps thread and then reposted here. Yeah, unfortunately it's looking like I won't have time to make it to hangouts today, I've got a lot to get done yet today and the fundraiser is coming up pretty quick. I'll definitely be in tomorrow though and if there's any fairly simple, time consuming manual labor part that you just haven't gotten time to get to I can give you a lending hand if you need it. But yeap, as far as my part of the talk in gapps that was why I was talking flo in gapps, it was on accident. :angel:

Sorry for OT, my n5 is getting weaker and worse from battery point of view. I'll try to replace battery soon, if that's not going to work, any suggestion for a new phone? I love the nexus 5 (only cam could be better), especially for its active dev community. Any idea besides n5x?

[Android Builders Collective] NovaSlim:
If you don't want a big phone, 5X is a great option just because the development community size. Other than that can try One plus Two/X, HTC A9 or Nextbit Robin.
[Android Builders Collective] amphi66:
New battery (from Amazon supplier) and upgrade to MM absolutely breathed new life into my N5! it will easily last 3 days on standby, charges quickly, and no issue for a standard day of calls, email & limited web. Not being sure how it would work out, this was a $12 bet that paid off handsomely!!
[Android Builders Collective] randman2011:
If you don't have anything else wrong with your Nexus 5, I would just replace the battery. I think my OEM replacement was under $15 and I replaced it in about 10 minutes. The Nexus 5 is insanely easy to work on. I only got the 5X because everything else was also broken on my N5.
