Android L source going live in AOSP - Nexus 5 General

http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/0...ve-aosp-includes-support-nexus-4-5-7-2013-10/

GPL?
Serious question,
Aren't they violating the GPL by not posting the kernel source yet?
Or is the assumption that they are releasing it soon so all is well?

Its about time really. I had just read this and thought oh the conversations on Xda right now lol but no not much at all

You lucky you got this. Remember honeycomb, the source wasn't released till after ice cream sandwich was released.

Have they decided on whether it's 4.5 or 5.0 yet? And is it lollipop?

I really peeved at Google right now, and I REALLY hope that this is nowhere near final code. Google disabled translucency for the N10 AGAIN. Either Google somehow doesn't even own their own product and are building blind, or they're just incompetent. There was no performance loss at all on 4.4, yet the disabled it because it "performed poorly." Same with ART, but I don't think Google can get away with that on L(unless they're like "screw you manta, no default runtime for you")....Sorry, I'm in rant mode right now. :silly:

The nexus 10 is such an ill treated device by Google that even in the I/O keynote when they used the nexus 10, it was running 4.3 looool
And Google even used a Samsung tablet for some parts of the demo in the keynote.

Turns out Android Police blew their load early. The whole source was not pushed after all.

How do they only release partial? Wasn't the kernel even posted?

They old gave a partial ROM. So you only get partial source. Also the kernel source was released.

Uh right now that is the full ROM so I don't get how it's only partial. Did you expect the full release of L to be out? Makes no sense.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

No i mean partial because it's just a preview build. They only have to released source code for what they have put out. The preview build is broken and has all sorts of stuff missing. Its not a full complete build.

They only released source for GPLed code changes and only those that were in the L preview build, everything else was filled in with a recent snapshot from the Main branch. I don't think that building this source branch would even allow you to recapitulate the "full" L preview build on either of the supported devices.

Anyone tried compiling it? Does it finish?

I guess they got tired of waiting for Verizon to get off their ass and release it. Ball's in your court now, big red!
Um... where do you think big red gets their sources from? lol... Nobody has the source until google releases it.
I think he meant releasing the nexus. Not source. Their taking forever to release nexus so Google released source.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
Google hasn't even released the Nexus yet, so of course Verizon won't have yet. They usually release the source right around the same time the corresponding Nexus device hits, so if this is any indication, the GN is right around the corner

If this is what I think it is, a port of the recently released Google vanilla s4, then this should be interesting. Granted, there are proprietary drivers and software for touchwiz devices, it might not be as exciting or feature laden as tw, but it is certainly something different. No, I was too lazy to read the link for clarification.

Actually, they're two separate things.
I just got the new build box up and running so first order of business was making sure PA and AOKP build properly.
Those builds got posted this morning.
Next I'll be working on the Google Edition stuff to see if we can't make a pure AOSP ROM.
Also curious at the kernel to see how it stacks up versus what CM is already using.

Like anything else I work on, too many factors and especially this one needs to be looked at carefully.
For example, the file released by JBQ looks awfully similar to what Samsung OSRC normally releases.
But when I asked before - well, can we build with that? - the answer was no.
Reason being we need things like the proprietary binaries that are up to Samsung to release.
I'm going to start by what JBQ said to do:
1) Make a clean AOSP repo
2) Drop their changes on top of that repo.
3) Add kernel - which I still want to compare to the source used in CM.
Anything else I may use what was pulled for CM (such as vendor blobs) to fill in the gaps.
We'll see if this plan of attack works or not.

I ended up trying it yesterday and data indeed does not work. I think some people are getting confused because 1x data still works but 3g does not work even after using the APN Backup and Restore app and KT AOSP Kernel.

I voted on Cyanogen. It has tweaks, but not as many as say PA or AOKP so in theory it shuold be less code to merge.

Right, but they take obnoxiously long to release anything since they always want it to be as bug free as possible. I'd say they will be 3rd or 4th. AOKP or Paranoid will do it first. My money is on AOKP or Slimbean.

I agree...I'd rather wait a week or 2 for a more complete ROM. Like I've mentioned in another post 4.3 is solid so far, just missing some tweaks here and there. I think PA will be the first major release.

I think it will be Cyanogen or AOKP to do it correct and smooth first. However I am currently using PA and it's pretty dope... So hopefully them

However more than likely it will be one of these built from everyone else's work Roms to put out a 4.3 release that's half baked .. Kills me how much attention people give others for "building" a ROM buy butchering real devs work..
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
I hope pa, but it depends more on other apps working with 4.3. Like touchcontrol etc. I was supposed to keep this phone close to stock when I got it some weeks ago, but pie and dpi settings convinced me.
PA is merging with 4.3 as we speak. Probably see a build today or tomorrow

Can we not just share our experiences in one of the many other threads? Most of us have been running it for months anyway!
All I found was Dev Preview threads. Instead of digging through 100s of pages; thought we can discuss the clean build once we start getting it. Would be great to see when it actually starts rolling out and what difference / updates there are compared to the DP.

The question is... will Lollipop be released today? I hope in a few hours we can start with flashing
Do you think tha we get the update today for N5???
I read that the update will arrive for WiFi Nexus 7 and after some week for others devices..
Here is what Android Geeks are saying. Seems to be inline with other updates. Here's hoping we get it sooner than later!

Hi there.
The source in the Android Geeks story is the message Google sent to developers recently saying Android 5 will be released to consumers on Nov 3. What that means in reality is anyone's guess.
I'm in London UK with a Nexus 5 waiting for the OTA update too. Hoping it's today but certainly not holding my breath.

It won't work. It's released only for Pixels and Nexus 5X/6P, not similar hardware or anything.
Btw, O is availble for ARM64 devices, without source code it will be very hard to even build it without errors

Yup, as @Sashko98 said, building from source code it's a no go, Google will only release the code when official released will be launched.
