Compiling Roms Thread: Build errors, bootloops, ...

[Flo0008]

Hi Guys!
I have problem with not booting ROMs (stuck on LG logo), I had to reinstall my Ubuntu and after this I setup my env for compiling, used extract-files script and build ROM. ROM builed without any problems but it's smaller than previous. (215MB vs 235MB) and not boot.. I have this problem with Candy5 and crDroid.
Things which may help:
1. My local manifest

2. Build of not booting ROM: http://d-h.st/7AWp

Someone can tell what im doing bad and help fix it?

Try this: rm -rf kernel && rm -rf device && . build/envsetup.sh && make clean && make clobber && rm -rf out && repo sync -j8

Now build again please and tell me if this helped.

Used this command and made new build and its have same size.

You're taking divergent source trees for vendor/lge, if you take a look the specific files that are in vendor/lge/$DEVICE we're not pushed to the .zip that's why the size is too small, actually their from LG-Devs but for your ROM I would recommend you take them directly from CM and vendor/lge from TheMuppets, the pathes are pointed in the device/lge/$DEVICE if you want to take a look and force the LG-Devs work with the device from CyanogenMod you'll need to change some paths.

Just as an example: https://github.com/SaberSunset/sync
I've ran into the same problem, here is my explanation for that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58503727&postcount=89
Each case is a case, but your problem looks the same that I had and maybe the solution will be change the source trees. Report back.

@GalaticStryder: Thank you very much for help! I changed my sources to CM (only kernel is from LG-Devs) and ROM working fine.

 

[zg85]

No one could help me with migrating PAC (CM) to new kernel/device sources?
Last build settings was :

<project name="AICP/device_lge_d802" path="device/lge/d802" remote="github" revision="kitkat" />
<project name="AICP/device_lge_g2-common" path="device/lge/g2-common" remote="github" revision="kitkat" />

<project name="platform/hardware/qcom/sensors" path="hardware/qcom/sensors" remote="aosp" revision="refs/tags/android-4.4.4_r2" />

but still sensors are dead.. I'm missing maybe some policy settings? Any help? How to make CM work with pure KK kernel/device? Is it possible?

Best wishes !

Hello guys,im trying to compile cm12 from source using this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/chef-central/android/guide-android-rom-development-t2814763 but im stuck at creating local_manifest.xml what am i suposed to write there and can someone explain me for what is local_manifest used for bcs i try to read but i dont understand much. Thanks for help guys

Probably this would be Your local manifest

Thanks for help but now i get this error after adding this lines in local_manifest when i try to sync repo:

[email protected]:~/cm12$ repo sync
fatal: duplicate path device/lge/d802 in /home/simex/cm12/.repo/manifest.xml

Search in manifest.xml for "device/lge/d802" and remove that line (and any of duplicated paths)
How do You add local manifest? Create folder in .repo called "local_manifests" and put Your XML there or by adding lines to manifest.xml?
The proper way is to create folder and put there Your manifest.xml.

i create local_mainfest this way: cd cm12/.repo than sudo nano local_manifests.xml and copy your lines, there and crtl O to save. In file manifest.xml there is nothing with device/lge/d802

See if there is maybe a file named roomservice.xml in your local_manifest folder and remove it.

Help needed

So im compiling flawlessly slimlp with no problemes and now i would like to add some futures and optimizations but i cant seem to understand how to do it properly and there arent good and well explained guides for that. Is maybe any of you guys friendly developers free and willing to help me?

Take a look here, especially from post #17 and ezio84's github link with the list of commits you can cherry-pick.

Compiling slim lp you synced all the slim repos or only the needed? Are you using repos from slim or from arcardinal, cardinal testing?

Here ya go,

Read through the posts and I think you will fix your problem :good: I also think that it's toolchain related as newer toolchains can cause several issues.

 

[nimrodsv]

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to build SlimLP rom and for some reason starting yesterday i'm having issues with the TARGET_KERNEL_CONFIG on both d802 and d801.

Where can i find where the kernel config name is defined?

Thanks.

Im getting the following error on both:

***

Hey guys. Hopefully someone is still monitoring this thread.
I used to build cm for tf201 so I have some experience. Trying to build CM12 for D800 and I get this:
make: *** No rule to make target '/android/system/out/host/linux-x86/bin/dtbToolCM', needed by '/android/system/out/target/product/d802/dt.img'. Stop.

I tried changing dtbToolCM to dtbTool and did not solve the problem as the error is the same (with CM dropped from the dtbTool).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: I found a dtbToolCM and just dumped them into system/out/host/.../bin/ and compiled successfully, then was able to boot to compiled rom. Apparently I could have just created a dummy dtbToolCM to get past the make error and just would not have dt.img
Now to start working on 12.1!

AOSP 6.0

Hello G2 devs,

I'm trying to build an AOSP 6.0 rom from AOSP source and CM13 repos. It is possible right?

This is my local manifest:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
	<remote name="github" fetch="git://github.com" />
	<project name="TheMuppets/proprietary_vendor_lge" path="vendor/lge/" remote="github" revision="cm-13.0" />
	<project name="CyanogenMod/android_kernel_lge_msm8974" path="kernel/lge/msm8974" remote="github" revision="cm-13.0" />
	<project name="CyanogenMod/android_device_lge_d802" path="device/lge/d802" remote="github" revision="cm-13.0" />
	<project name="CyanogenMod/android_device_lge_g2-common" path="device/lge/g2-common" remote="github" revision="cm-13.0" />
	<project name="CyanogenMod/android_device_qcom_common" path="device/qcom/common" remote="github" revision="cm-13.0" />
	<project name="CyanogenMod/android_device_qcom_sepolicy" path="device/qcom/sepolicy" remote="github" revision="cm-13.0" />
</manifest>

I know kernel builds usually give a few headaches so I'm trying to build with a prebuilt kernel zImage extracted from a boot.img of the last CM13 nightly, changed its name to "kernel" and moved it to device/lge/d802 folder.
So I made several edits to some device files:

• device/lge/d802/BoardConfig.mk
  

  #TARGET_KERNEL_CONFIG := cyanogenmod_d802_defconfig
  
  ifeq ($(TARGET_PREBUILT_KERNEL),)
  LOCAL_KERNEL := device/lge/d802/kernel
  else
  LOCAL_KERNEL := $(TARGET_PREBUILT_KERNEL)
  endif
  
  PRODUCT_COPY_FILES += \
      $(LOCAL_KERNEL):kernel

• device/lge/g2-common/BoardConfigCommon.mk
  

  #TARGET_KERNEL_SOURCE := kernel/lge/msm8974

After a make -j4 otapackage the result is this -> http://pastebin.com/N6nkxmUh

Is it possible to build only system.img? Will it boot with a boot.img from a CM13 nightly? Can anyone help me with this error?

Best regards,
ponces

 

[matteo0026]

Hi to all, i built an cm14 for d802, but i must resolve all the problems. It works only WiFi i think. To fix i have surely:
- RIL
- Bluetooth
- NFC
- Can't pull down fully QS (only see the main with notifications)
- Can't unlock Developer Options

Thanks.

Today I tried my first build of an Android ROM, I downloaded the AOSP source, with the latest 7.0.0 r14 branch. I have been following the guide from the Xperia dev page, the cyanogen wiki and the Google source page, however when everything is downloaded and placed in the correct place. I downloaded the device tree as well and put it in place.

I'm getting the error of:
