Totally new to ROM building, but I want LG's crap rom off my phone, so I'm trying to install Slim7 on it... yea, it's not easy, since there's next to no developer support for this device.

I've downloaded LG's source and have tried to assimilate it into Slim's source (basically merging everything but the frameworks folder) and am now trying to build.

But this is the Ninja error I get:

Code:
ninja: Entering directory `.'
ninja: error: '/home/android/Desktop/cheap_android_love/out/target/product/generic_arm64/obj/KERNEL_OBJ/usr', needed by '/home/android/Desktop/cheap_android_love/out/target/product/generic_arm64/obj/SHARED_LIBRARIES/libtinyalsa_intermediates/mixer.o', missing and no known rule to make it
build/core/ninja.mk:151: recipe for target 'ninja_wrapper' failed
make: *** [ninja_wrapper] Error 1
I've checked the directory, and the "obj" folder doesn't even exist in the out folder, so this error seems impossible to me... help me out? What files do I need to look at?

Seems like you are just missing some source files. Do you have the custom kernel source for the recovery that came with twrp? Or are you building kernel seperate from rom. I dont know if that part of building changed. I used to only do builds up to 4.4

While waiting for d-fuse to do his magic, couple questions hoping someone could help me with.

1. Xposed. From what i gather its not officially supported yet for 7, but a few apps like 3c toolbox seem to require it. I also know one team out out an unofficial one but mixed reviews. So is anyone running xposed on their phone or whats the consensus?

2. A semi unique requirement I guess but I need to be able to bluetooth tether with this phone being the "server" and another android phone being the client. Seen some out there but they seem ROM or phone specific. And PDANet doesnt support a phone as a client, and one other app worked at first but now only works for about 20 seconds and drops. Tried many others and no luck.

Thanks.
