I think PMEM will cause problem in future.
Compiling Omni 5.0 and I got MemoryBasePMEM error.

Not sure myself, but this could be related to the fact that LP requires encrypted fs, which is not possible with MTD ...?
I haven't touched anything LP related yet though, I'll wait for the pro's to step up

Wait for major ROM developers [CM, AOKP, PA etc.] to fully dig into the source and then we may talk lollipop. For now I'd stay away as we don't even have kitkat AOSP built

I compiled this rom for mango giving 100 MB from /system to /data. With flashing minimal gapps (160 DPI), there are 7 MB free space. I know that's tight, but on the other hand I don't know what to do with 100 MB free space on /system. Maybe it would be good to give more space to /data in general? I know a lot of people use more /system space than me, and I don't know what would be a good value.

Good value is what we have now. It's really not worth tweaking the sizes all the time, we can't please everyone. The space is just too limited to do any meaningful changes.

While trying to build I get this error:

collect2: error: ld terminated with signal 7 [Bus error], core dumped
make: *** [/home/clemens/android/cm11/out/target/product/mango/obj/SHARED_LIBRARIES/libwebviewchromium_intermediates/LINKED/libwebviewchromium.so] Fehler 1

I know its a linking problem. I had this some days back and solved it using 'make libwebviewchromium' before I started the whole build. All I found were similar problems, but not exactly the same and the assumption that it could be caused by too less RAM. Is 8 GB really too less? I don't use swap, but in system monitor it didn't look like whole RAM was used. Some time back, everything worked good.
I'll try a clean build without ccache, and see what happens.

Edit:
Build finished successful after disabling ccache. Don't really know what was the problem.

how can I fix it?

fatal: cannot make /home/daniel/android/system/.repo/repo directory: File exists
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/repo", line 775, in <module>
    main(sys.argv[1:])
  File "/usr/bin/repo", line 748, in main
    os.rmdir(os.path.join(root, name))

custom build version not changing

Hello Everyone!

I recently (2014.12.15.) built a ROM with the info I read in the first post, but when I install it, the "About Phone" says CyanogenMod version 11-20141018-UNOFFICIAL-LegacyXperia-smultron and the Kernel version is Tue Dec 9 10:33:10 CET 2014.

Is this normal, these dates shouldn't change to today?

p.s.: this is like the 10th build from the same machine, I did exactly what the first post says about "The next times you want to build, you only need to do the following:"

Am I missing something?

thanks for the help.

If you delete the build.prop file in android/out/target/product/smultron/system your dates will be changed to today

Is this just cosmetic, or is it alter the build in any other way?

Doesn't influence the build, just forces a recreate of the build.prop file with new build dates etc.

how to add packages

guys...need help
i just saw this thread and i wanted to add this feature in my build
but there are 2 doubts
1. exactly where to put this

To get these built into your ROM you will need to add a couple products to PRODUCT_PACKAGES, you can decide where you want to add this.
Code:
# Screen recorder
PRODUCT_PACKAGES += \
ScreenRecorder \
libscreenrecorder

2. where to add screen recorder app link i.e

Screen Recorder app https://github.com/ChameleonOS/andro...ScreenRecorder

so that when i compile build...then even this app gets fetched and compiled
plz help me

1. Add it to msm7x30.mk in /device/msm7x30-common (as you want to build it for all devices)

2. Add line to .repo/local_manifests/semc.xml (or create another). See semc.xml as example. Then sync.
