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.

Which patch file are you trying to patch? What is the output of 0s.rej?

Daydream works - what an awesome feature! Only problem with it is a FC when Clock setting is pressed but you can still use it as is.

Can't duplicate the problem. Only thing I can think of is that AOSP by default includes DeskClock.apk. The GAPPS I linked contains a DeskClockGoogle.apk so there might be a conflict.

Things to try:
1. Use adb to delete the existing DeskClock apk file inside /system/app and then copy the DeskClock.apk from the AOSP rom.
2. Use adb to delete the existing DeskClock apk file inside /system/app and then copy the DeskClockGoogle.apk from the GAPPS.
3. Uninstall the existing DeskClock with Titanium Backup. Try to install DeskClock or DeskClockGoogle one at a time a regular app (non system app).

Are you inside of the directory where you initialized the repo? Might be easier to just manually edit .repo/manifest.xml to add those two required lines. Are you trying to build it for crespo?

Articudos said:

Yeah, crespo..
I downloaded in ~/ , and moved whole file to ~/crespo_4.2/ .
It can cause problem..?

Click to expand...

Click to collapse

So you created a git repo inside ~/, successfully synced, and then you moved all the contents to crespo_4.2? This is seperate from the download. You need to sync a few gigabytes of aosp code first.

Articudos said:

BTW, There is way to sync in ~/crespo_4.2/ , not ~/ ?

Click to expand...

Click to collapse

Move ~/.repo to ~/crespo_4.2 and then sync. If you are using a file manager, you have to set it to show hidden files first.

About patch 004 and 005,
Do I have to modify it for crespo GSM?

Click to expand...

Click to collapse

For 004, it does not exist in the cyanogenmod tree so it is unlikely to be needed.
For 005, it has already been done by default for crespo.
