You may find a manifest file in the unofficial repository, a xml file, maybe.

According to guide, the project named kernal, device & vendor need to be added to the .repo/local_manifests/roomservice.xml, which does not exist, and you need to create yourself.

But I also saw some manifest files containing remove-project. Not sure if that should also be added to the roomservice.xml.

after grabbing them and follow other steps when i want to make the image file
i got errors related to some header files in framework/native/include/gui that don't exists
so i find and download them and cpp files and added to include/gui and libs/gui ...
