Hi everyone.
As you all know, Samsung distributes source code as tarballs which isn't the best way to redistribute kernel source code
git is the best modern way to work with Linux Kernel sources, designed by Linus himself in this purpose.
So, cdesai made an organization on Github for that. It contains the kernel source for all the variants that have posted source so far.
https://github.com/sgs3
And yea, that means source code has been released, head on to http://opensource.samsung.com/
Kernel Sources :
https://github.com/sgs3/SGH-I747M_Kernel
Branches :
master :- branch you should use(for developers), will contain fixes and more in the future
If anyone wants to commit any fixes / anything else, let me know, and we can add you to the organization
How to Build :
Get the source:
Tell it to use our config:
Build:
or
The compiled kernel is arch/arm/boot/zImage
(Also note: Im posting the source in a much easier to get way, but I dont have AT&T, so I wont be doing builds for you guys)
