I have a Custom ROM, not CM. Can I use that ROM for automatically build kernel and device trees ?

After using mkbooting command, there is no extract files.sh script to extract device blobs.

Git has no idea over spreadtrum SoCs, and my device is alien to github till now.

Hi guys i donwloaded CM13 no repo. My rom compiles fine, but "bacon" or "otapackage" doesn't work ( No rule to make target `bacon'. Stop.)

Is this normal? Can i solve this issue without download the whole rom with repo again?
[Android Software Development] aadityarulez:
Have you included device vendor files?
[Android Software Development] gabrielgagz:
Yes i build from scratch, device and vendor tree based on similar devices. IF i flash the system and boot images works fine ( with a bootloop, but this is another story :) ) but im not able un build a flashable zip...

Hi, I've Validus 7.1.1 sources nd I want to highly compress them. Which script do I've to exactly use, this one?

Nd yes, only the .repo folder will be compressed or what? :)

Thanks.

Edit: Just realized that script is for pull request. :p

[Android Software Development] Growtopia Jaw:
Hello, can anyone explain how this highly compressed source works in detail? Trying to get this thing working for almost 3 months now :confused:. After cloning [MENTION=5325978]regalstreak[/MENTION]'s skadhook repo and changing some things in Caddyfile and checkdiff.sh as followed in [MENTION=5325978]regalstreak[/MENTION]'s README.MD In the repo, it ended up downloading into my computer lol. I'm trying to download ResurrectionRemix optimized-lollipop5.1 branch with no repo folder. It would be helpful if someone can help me with this. Here's the compress.bash. Thanks in advance.
[Android Software Development] AJPuzon:
Hello, guys am i correct? That im just gonna unzip the highly compressed zip to my home folder?

Cause i downloaded the CM13 with repo zip after what happened to my Ubuntu:

Backround(What Happened): My computer suddenly turned into read - only mode, causing my repo sync to fail and stop, so i rebooted and fixed that error commandline mode and it worked but my repo sync now always fail so i deleted the whole android folder to start again. :( Now i've decided to download these highly compressed sources to save time, the internet here in the philippines is very slow(1 to 2MB only)even if i use LTE, i don't want to spend eternity syncing that repo again.

Thanks, any help would be very appreciated.

[Android Software Development] regalstreak:
I'm gonna write something and extend skadoosh to upload in parts so we have it on sourceforge
[Android Software Development] XxDishoxX:
That is really cool:good:

Good luck :cowboy:
[Android Software Development] regalstreak:
I'm done with it. Skadoosh is live again. Send pull requests ;)

Read faq for instructions on splitting and joining.
[Android Software Development] Parthib:
Thanks bro.

BTW,why vertexOs is only 3MB?

and can you upload RR roms..M,N.(latest)

i also want RR LP.but RR-M is important for now..
[Android Software Development] Parthib:
now i am getting confused :confused:

so i have downloaded that l13 shallow source(2 files).

but how i am going to extract it .it is in aa and ab format :rolleyes:
[Android Software Development] regalstreak:
Read faq.
[Android Software Development] regalstreak:
Man you don't even know which branch if a manifest you submit a pull request too and you want 2 roms. At least learn.
[Android Software Development] Parthib:
Sorry bro ,I have less knowledge about git pull request
[Android Software Development] MSF Jarvis:
Then you really shouldn't be building ROMs
[Android Software Development] Parthib:
Why bro ?

I already compiled some roms(cm11,12) using highly compressed sources of this thread.

But I don't know how to request a new source.

And I am not doing this pull request because if something goes wrong while doing that or I missed up someting then everyone will get angry on me.
[Android Software Development] ABSathe:
If pull request is wrong .. owner of repo will simply close it without merging ... There's no harm in trying .
[Android Software Development] Druboo666:
PR has been sent 4 days ago be me for DU (Caf & AOSP) Ground Zero ROMs (validus,tesla,&tipsy) also for OCTOS but none of them are merged.

may i know why ...or did i do something wrong should i need fix anything to get them merged or i simply wait it out
[Android Software Development] regalstreak:
Man you sent pull request for 6 roms. Are you going to build all in one click? Do you really need 6 roms? You commit messages say "Added <rom>".

Why would I waste bandwidth on my server and do 6 roms just for the sake of "adding"?

Just submit pr s for the ones you are actually going to compile.
[Android Software Development] Druboo666:
I actually compile GZR and OctOS ? ? ?

And for DU you already had previous PR which you closed with a resend request so i just send the PR....
[Android Software Development] regalstreak:
Lol then send but send one by one or it'll have merge conflicts
[Android Software Development] Druboo666:
Ok i will send PR one by one tonight thank you
[Android Software Development] cmohan0004:

[Android Software Development] regalstreak:
Don't know, depends on rom. But you can sync locally too by using the '-l' flag which won't use internet (mentioned in faq)
[Android Software Development] nikhilpal2705:
I have one doubt.

If i am using shallow source and if i do "repo sync" to update recent changes, will it download complete data(means previous commits also) or just recent changes?
[Android Software Development] cmohan0004:
after syncing local only as mentioned in faq can i sync the same with internet, which command should i use to sync it with minimum internet?
[Android Software Development] regalstreak:
As it had been initialised as shallow, it won't sync full. It will remain shallow. If you want to unshallow a specific repo, you can cd to that, for example,

$(croot) && cd external/wpa_supplicant_8

and do this:

git pull --unshallow

This will unshallow the specific project.

Of course you can sync the same with internet. The command is the same, just remove the 'l' flag.

[Android Software Development] zaidrpm:
Hello everyone, i am also from India, wanted to start with aosp but unfortunately lack both, processing power and internet bandwidth. Can you please tell me minimum harware requirements for starting with aosp. I know how to google, but the answers i found are varying from 32 core 256gb ram to even dual cores. On aosp hardware requirement page, it says 16 gb ram + swap, but it doesn't specifies minimum ram and maximum swap. My current laptop has got 4gb with e2-7110 [MENTION=4149147]1.8[/MENTION]ghz * 4. So can i start with aosp with this laptop (or maybe with upgrading to 8gb ram)?

(linux user, so i wont be running it in vbox)
[Android Software Development] xenreon:
If you can afford then surely upgrade to 8gb ram, 4gb will be an enormous pain and much hackery will be needed to work with nougat/Oreo.
[Android Software Development] zaidrpm:
And can you please list out your specs with build time so that i can estimate it for my laptop. (If is is likely to take more than 12hrs, then i am not going to try)

---------- Post added at 04:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:42 PM ----------

Yes i can afford 8gb but will it be enough?? And what about my cpu - amd e2-7110 1.8ghz quad core
[Android Software Development] xenreon:
I3 5005u

8gb ram+24gb swap

my pc build is 12gb ram, a8-7600 quad core cpu and it takes 8hrs for nougat to build for me. and that's already with ccache on.

[Android Software Development] therealkurison:
huh, weird. if you're right, i wonder what i did wrong
[Android Software Development] DiamondJohn:
Sorry for being off topic, but...

Its not simply CPU nor just CPU & memory, the speed of the drives makes a big difference. Check your CPU utilisation during the build. If its not close to 100%, then its twiddling its thumbs waiting on something like a disk to respond.
[Android Software Development] therealkurison:
yeah, but I'm using a Playstation 3 HDD (100MB/s write compared to my other HDDs 40-60MB/s).

also, i use HTop to check my core utilization and all 4 cores are almost always at 100℅ at build time.

and added note, I just finished compiling LOS13 and it finished 3hr and a half

Don't edit something in .repo/manifests manually, if you wanna remove a project or add it's modified fork of yours then use the remove-project tag in local manifest.

Seeing as other things you've been told are not working try init repo in another directory then manually copy/paste the project-objects/projects directories there. Janky but can save the time.

hey bro.. first of all thanks for the source.. i downloaded cm12.1 no repo, and as of now it is compiling without any problem, hopefully it succeed without any error...

but since i'm completely new to this developing android rom (heck this is my first build ever!) i have several questions.. :

1. is it normal to see tons of warning message from the compiler while building?

2. will it take as long time as the first build to compile if i decided to make some change to the code and recompile or will the compiler just compile the changed bit and done with it?

3. how do you turn the source code into a zip file? Do you just take the .repo folder or the source code folder and zip it? i want to make it myself for backup just in case something went horribly wrong with my machine i don't have to do repo sync again and consume tons of bandwidth again..

thanks... any reply would be appreciated!
[Android Software Development] regalstreak:
1) Yes warnings are ok. Errors are not.

2) compiler compiles whole build. It never compiles just the changed stuff. You have to run "make clean && make clobber" if you want to build again.

3) yes just zip it. By using terminal. And use different commands for high compression
