[Guide][Advanced][Linux] Compile Cm9 for Samsung Galaxy S

---

This is how I compiled cm9 for galaxysmtd.
For sure there are other ways but this is the only way I know, and it works for me.
I use Linux Mint 12.
Reading helps. http://git-scm.com/documentation

Follow this guide until you have synced source. (Step 4D)

Also check 4h. Your Final .bashrc
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1505006

2d. Add Extra Path For Device:

sudo gedit /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules

Enter this in it:

#Samsung
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="04e8", MODE="0666"

4c should be this

cd ~/android/system/
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b ics

setup ccache
http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html

Manifest
New terminal

cd ~/android/system
gedit .repo/local_manifest.xml

And add this to the file

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
  <project name="CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_galaxysmtd" path="device/samsung/galaxysmtd" />
  <project name="CyanogenMod/android_device_samsung_aries-common" path="device/samsung/aries-common" />
  <project name="CyanogenMod/android_packages_apps_SamsungServiceMode" path="packages/apps/SamsungServiceMode" remote="github" />
  <project name="CyanogenMod/android_kernel_samsung_aries" path="kernel/samsung/aries" remote="github" revision="android-samsung-3.0-ics" />
</manifest>

Option 2: if you dont have cm9 installed look here <----Link

For the next step you need to have cm9 installed.
Connect you phone to pc and in terminal type

adb root

New terminal

cd ~/android/system/device/samsung/galaxysmtd/
./extract-files.sh

New terminal

cd ~/android/system/vendor/cm/
./get-prebuilts

New terminal

cd ~/android/system 
repo sync

New terminal

. build/envsetup.sh && brunch galaxysmtd

Should be it. Enjoy!

I can not give support on this. Sorry.

did I forget you? tell me pls!
and all involved in Linux and Android

Nice, thanks!

@perka, forgot somebody in credits mate?

reason your boot.img didn't wokr is because of the ramdisks. you need special ones for SGS which has CWM recovery in it. Use the one from OneCosmic/Stratoksk/Zach/Tk-Glitch and compile boot.img from zImage/kernel.

Sorry now you are there

Perka check teamhcksung buildscripts and see how they do to build kernel and rom one after other, is very easy.

then
git clone git://github.com/teamhacksung/android_device_samsung_aries-common.git -b ics aries-common

go to android/system/vendor/cm
edit file vendorsetup.sh
add this in between any of the lines

You can use a local_maifest.xml instead of that, so these repos get synced, too.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
  <manifest>

    <project path="device/samsung/galaxysmtd" name="teamhacksung/android_device_samsung_galaxysmtd" />
    <project path="device/samsung/aries-common" name="teamhacksung/android_device_samsung_aries-common" />
    <project path="vendor/cm" name="teamhacksung/android_vendor_cm" />
    <project path="kernel/samsung-kernel-aries" name="teamhacksung/samsung-kernel-aries" remote="github" revision="android-samsung-3.0-ics" />

  </manifest>

I also made a very simple build script as I didn't know how to use teamhacksung's
It builds kernel and cm9-KANG

#!/bin/bash

repo sync -j`grep 'processor' /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l`
. build/envsetup.sh
cd kernel/samsung-kernel-aries
#make clean
export ARCH=arm
export CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi-
export PATH=$PATH:~/android/system/prebuilt/linux-x86/toolchain/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin/
make aries_galaxysmtd_defconfig
time make -j`grep 'processor' /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l`
cp -f ~/android/system/kernel/samsung-kernel-aries/arch/arm/boot/zImage ~/android/system/device/samsung/galaxysmtd/kernel
find . -name "*.ko" -exec cp -f {} ~/android/system/device/samsung/galaxysmtd/ \;
cd ../..
lunch cm_galaxysmtd-userdebug
#make clobber
time make -j`grep 'processor' /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l` otapackage

With the new builds /system only has limited space left, so you have to delete some files before flashing gapps. Otherwise you'll end up in android.process.acore fc's (that's what happened to me...).

Forgot to put you also in credit.

Who else? Sorry!
