hello all, fairly new to rom development and have gotten almost fully through the process of making my first rom!
my only question is how to include the kernel, vendor and other nesecary files for building in the local manifests xml file.
I found this repo from detcaf which seems to be all the stuff I need but I am unsure how to include it into the xml file.
the rom I am trying to build is based of cyogenmod 11 (android 4.4 kitkat)
detcaf repo: Decatf/android_device_samsung_p4wifi at cm-11.0
guide I have been following: [GUIDE] Build crDroid ROM from source | XDA Forums
sorry if there is aready a post on this that I am unaware of, if so please link it below..
Thankyou so much in advance

My question is where can I find a guide for compile for AOSP JB ROM for Captivate?
I do have some knowledge in packaging ROM to a zip file.
I saw that there is an AOSP ROM called [JB 4.1.1] Monfro Aosp, but I couldn't find any open source repository for that.
I'm not looking for CM or AOKP, but merely AOSP.
The guide on the cm wiki will be close to the same, you just need to use the aosp repo instead of the cm one. Where is the aosp repo? I have no idea. Google is your friend, bout all i can say.
Hi
I follow a tutorial to build a rom, but i blocked at the step to find device tree.
In this step https://github.com/AOSB/android
So i would like to know if someone who as already built a rom, what branch tree i have to tap.
thanks in advance !
hello exhibit community, i assume this is the correct forum, otherwise sorry mods. i recently "inherited" a t599n and i am taking the challenge of compiling an ubuntu touch rom for the device. i have very little android/pc experience. however, i have successfully built from source (cyanogenmod) and ported quite a few roms to other devices. i just upgraded my ubuntu version to saucy as precise was unable to install the phablet tool. i will be using meticulous's github sources and i will start building tonight/tommorrow depending on repo dl. any dev suggestions?
fail
i was unable to build the meticulus kernel with ubuntu source provided. i was able to build the system.img and boot.img. but w/o the ubuntu touch kernel specifics, the results are a bootloop. im off to new ventures for now as im unable to port anything to this device as of yet. i have some ideas revolved around slimroms soon.
Hello,
I want to make ROMs for the SP in LBL.
But I don't know how i can take a github or a repo like Bagyusz to build my own rom.
I take the CM12 source to build it.
Sorry for this noob question but i really want to contribute of the future of the SP and learn about build custom roms.
Thanks
@Furrydaus @MrSteve555 @neXus PRIME
I download the source of CM on my computer, but to do a build for LBL i have to download the manifest of MrSteve555 Github and apply patches, how can i do that ?
Thanks for your response !

In case you are not aware, here are the kernel sources for the Huawei P8lite. This means that you can now build CyanogenMod or custom kernels for this phone.
Downloads
ALE-L02/ALE-L21/ALE-L23
ALE-L04 (Old 4.4.4 Source)
After seeing the interest for CyanogenMod or a similar AOSP ROM, there is a guide here that shows you how to port CM to a new device. Unfortunately, I can't do it because I don't own the device but if you try, best of luck
If dd98 agrees, i would use this thread to discuss and collect info about how to compile an armv8a kernel for our phone.
By the way, if i run this command in the phone console:
uname -a
It says our stock kernel is for armv7l. Is it normal?
Has anybody already tried to compile from source? Any success?
Any further development on this?
@dd98 I have device and willing to port can you guide on how to do this?
I'm going to try enable USB OTG for B170 for ALE-L21.
Oh.. This is and old thread..
There are already some developers busy with development of custom roms for the Huawei P8 Lite.
There kernel and the source can already been build for android 5 and android 6.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/general/kernel-boot-stock-android-6-0-t3344841
Cyanogenmod is for the moment a problem because of good vendor files.
For now only wifi is working on AOSP builds, as long that there is no RIL ( calling ) you can't do anything with the Custom rom.
I'm personally have buid a bootable rom with Omnirom.
Source for that rom you can find here : https://github.com/olrak2/android_device_huawei_alice/
Somebody tried enable usb otg?
