[Q]Repo Instructions for JFLTE 5.x?

[uagent]

I know that Jake had to step away from the project, and I pretty much intend on running my jfltetmo into the ground, so I'll be on jflte long-term. I'd like to start giving back to the community by seeing if I can pick up where Jake left off. I'm an electrical engineer with plenty of programming experience. I just don't have much in the embedded world. I saw that Jake had some work posted to Github on the 5.1 branch for jflte, but when I follow the directions in omnirom's Github Readme, I get an error of
error: Cannot fetch android_device_samsung_jflte
Can I manually copy the files, and where do they fit within the android structure?
Is Android Studio a good IDE for ROM development?

Hmm, post the full error log? Also, if the branch is only in Jake's personal repos you may need to use a custom local manifest to use that for the device tree instead of Omni's jflte device tree.

I personally just use grep + emacs, I've never been much of an IDE person.

Hi, thanks for getting back to me! I deleted the directory and reinitialized the omni repo. Here is the error I keep getting, it seems to be choking on arm/linux/androideabi:
repo sync -j8 -f --no-clone-bundle|tee >> reposynclog.txt 2>&1
Fetching projects: 100% (480/480), done.
Syncing work tree: 93% (447/480) error: in `sync -j8 -f --no-clone-bundle`: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: u'/media/rhill/25e87ad3-e539-4009-9c40-0ab4db81d8e0/rhill/WORKING_DIRECTORY/prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/arm/arm-linux-androideabi-4.8/.git/HEAD'
error: manifest missing or unreadable -- please run init

I re-ran

repo init -u git://github.com/omnirom/android.git -b android-5.1 > repoinitlog.txt 2>&1

Which doesn't seem to have thrown any errors at me, but I keep returning to the same broken package, even when I just run repo sync, with no options.
