Sorry for bothering you... How can I apply step6 to crespo?
It's no problem. Just noticed I have two #5s. After you download and extract the six binaries from Google, the directory should look like this:
vendor/nxp
vendor/nxp/crespo
vendor/nxp/crespo/device-crespo.mk
vendor/nxp/crespo/proprietary
vendor/nxp/crespo/proprietary/libpn544_fw.so
vendor/nxp/crespo/BoardConfigCrespo.mk
...

If 4.2.1 source releases, how can I update source w/o losing my commits?
When you sync again in the future, it will refuse to sync any changes in the files you have edit. It will tell you that you need to save your work first.

...
Aha, that means I should run *.sh....

Good. Just
Repo sync, right?

Fix for not being able to start Google Text-to-Speech:

Download the gapps from here. Extract and copy system/lib/libspeexwrapper.so over to /system/lib/ via adb or add it to the other gapps zip and flash again.

Crespo4g - Sending MMS works, receiving does not.

Working with Matr1x kernel 24.0, I need my button notification lights! Gesture keyboard works too.

Could this be modified to make building possible for other devices? like the gs3?

Today I started build, but when I did "make otapackage", it showed tons of error...of course, couldn't build..

Would you to upload this ROM source without tweaks, cherrypicks, like vanilla AOSP source..?(via github)
(I just requested to IamTheDarkOne for vanilla source, but haven't received reply yet.)

The AOSP sources is 8.5GB. If you want just the AOSP sources:
Code:
repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest
repo sync
To select the branch you want:
Code:
repo init -b android-4.1.2_r3
repo sync

This will give you Android 4.1.2_r3 which was the last support version that supported. Depending on your setup, it should compile without error. (You may need this patch.)

    Use the latest gapps for 4.2.1: 20121212
    Warning: The new swipe keyboard and the gallery/camera/photosphere are not included. Stock photosphere apk will not work. It is hard coded to work on certain phones. You must use modified binaries or edit the build prop.

    Steps to flash:
    1. Flash the ROM and SuperSU.
    2. Boot at least once before flashing Gapps. FCs may occur if you don't reboot.
    3. Be patient: the phone will be laggy for the first few minutes as the phone scans for media on the built in sdcard.
    4. If you have strange issues or FCs, make sure you wipe data / factory reset and reflash everything.


    Important notes:
    No tweaks, mods or kernel patches will be added. This is strictly a basic AOSP build.
    A complete set of patches are provided on github so you can build your own ROM with your choice of modifications.

    Flash your favorite AOSP based 4.1.x or 4.2.x kernel if desired. ASOP version of Matr1x and CM10 version of Marmite has been confirmed to work. Stock ROM is not as smooth as other kernels but it works.

    Working Settings.apk

    Hello,

    Lets get the development going!
    Here is the working Settings.apk. I will share the code (patch if required) later since I am in a hurry to leave to my native.
    Just check and let me know.

    It was just a matter of one try-catch block in packages/apps/Settings/src/com/android/settings/deviceinfo/StorageVolumePreferenceCategory.java in the function totalValues(HashMap<String, Long> map, String... keys)!

    Version needs to be updated from 4.2 to 4.2.1 (Cosmetic issue)

    Sources attached. First post will be updated once I get more feedback on it. Patch 015-adjust-lockscreen-keyguard-size.patch may be changed for future builds.

    To build 4.2.1:
    1. Reverse all the previous patches with "patch -s -p1 -R -E"
    2. Delete device/samsung/crespo*
    3. repo init -b android-4.2.1_r1
    4. Reapply the first patch and repo sync
    5. Reapply the remaining patches.

    To report problems with the lockscreen security widget:
    1. You must enable developer mode
    2. Enable Security -> Developer options -> Show layout bounds
    3. Take one screenshots with the normal security lock right when the phone wakes
    4. Take one with lockscreen widget fully expanded.
    5. Post as attachment to the forum. Example attached.

    Updated github trees:

    Is the new android-4.2.2_r1 a big enough update to warrant a new build? I will be using this ROM til the end of my contract in May. Doesn't matter either way for me, just thought it would be cool to go out with the latest Android version. :D
