Stuck while building - HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G

Ok. I know this is nooby but I don't have anyone else to ask. I am trying to build Android 4.4 Kit Kat for the Flyer. I followed this guide. I installed all the packages, installed the repo downloaded the source code but I can't find my device on github
1) Find the github for your device you wish to add. (For me it is the Asus Nexus 7 (2013) [codename: flo]
2) Now navigate to the location you are going clone the device tree to:

I searched and I couldn't find the Flyer's files on Github. I only found a kernel source by doomlord but I don't think that's it. Anyone can help me. Any sorte of help would be appretiated. I am just trying to bring this device back from the dead.

Really? That is not how it works, you need drivers snd a whole lot more. If it were that easy every phone would be on 4.4

Look as I said I am noob for building. I read at a guide that you need to get a git clone after repo syncing. But if that's not true point me out to a thread.

You will have to change a few of the steps in the above linked thread, that is for pure aosp and you want cm10...
(Just need to change the "repo init...." part to cm10 repo)
Then follow rest of that thread but also add a kernel tree to the working folder

I would actually say start off with a prebuilt kernel if possible, just to rule that out in the debugging process. Once he has a build able device tree he can add inline kernel building. Thanks for the catch though, I forget dastin's guides aren't for CM.
I got stuck at step five. I do not know how to install adb drivers. : (

Step 5 is installing the repo...is that what you meant? Just do the commands in a terminal

I'm already on "How to add a device to the list" (Step 3). can i use on the CM10 this? https://github.com/Blefish/android_device_huawei_u8800
It would suffice to fix bugs me on this http://www.mediafire.com/?m6sy82bufgdjok5 . BOOTLOOP . I do not know how I find a problem and fix it. Please advise, I do not want to create a new rom when it's done, just needs to be fixed. :crying: :crying: :crying:
i read this about logcat: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1726238 and about applications (Alogcat, Catlog). But these applications are the devices that are going to run. CM10 on huawei u8800 has a bootloop. How fix it?Would that work on my computer? with linux or windows? Please reply fast.

I'm not an expert on device trees but I'm pretty sure you need a jellybean (not ics) device tree...and your device is the u8800?
Also what are you using for kernel source? Or if using a prebuilt what kernel? Is made for jellybean...or ics like your device tree?

It's for ics, but I ask if I can use this to the jelly bean, I guess not, huh? Huawei u8800 (Ideos x5) already has a jelly bean, but he needs to fix bootloop and more .. such as wifi, bluetooth, ... I'll try to fix it, but I need advice from you how to do it, if not corrected bootloop and the device can not start. So how do I do it. Please advise.
I will install CM10 for Huawei u8800, then run phone (starts a loop) and then connect my phone to pc and I type in the terminal "adb logcat", is that correct?

Assuming you have android SDK installed yes, but type this instead "adb logcat > logcat.txt" that way it saves it to a .txt file you can upload
Your bootloop is likely caused by using ice repos instead of jb...mainly in kernel source

How to compile Cyanogenmod for an unsupported device

Hello everyone,
I am a newbie here, I want to compile Cyanogenmod from source and I learned CyanogenMod wiki.
Unfortunately I didn't find my device, ZTE v889d. I have downloaded the Cyanogenmod source, the wiki tells
cd ~/android/system/device/manufacturer/device-name/
./extract-files.sh
Click to expand...

However I didn't see device/zte/v889d, so I don't know what to do. I searched the github, there's no such file either.
Is there any guide for me to do this? Thanks in advance.

You have to find a device tree for your device...or make one
I can't help with making one as I've never made a device tree...
But for finding one just Google ZTE v889d github...if someone has made one it should pop up...if you can't find any...then your out of luck and will have to make your own..

I'm no pro either, but perhaps you could find a device that is close to your model that is cm supported and then look into its vendor tree on github. Doing this will allow you to see what you need to pull from your firmware to start a tree. Or if the devices are close enough you might even be able to barrow some of the supported devices pre existing tree.
Hope this helps a little

Unfortunately the Acer Iconia B1-A71 has a locked bootloader and as a result you sadly can't flash a custom recovery on the tablet without bricking it. You can however root the device, if you would like to root your tablet I would recommend taking a look at this tool here.

Do you have the actual kernel source code out of curiosity? Additionally, the boot.img you provided doesn't unpack correctly is produces an error that it's not in the correct format. If you can provide me with the actual kernel source code I will see what I can do with that :good:.

What I meant was do you have the actual source code for the kernel that I can download and compile. For example this is what I am refering to what I mean by kernel source code, a .zip file or similar that contains the kernel source code that you can them compile.

Help in developing rom for Sola?

Hi
I wanted to create an android rom for my xperia sola, for now I am not sure how to setup env and create rom.
So any help or link to some tutorials will be useful.
Since I am using Linux it'd be great if you can suggest me to create dev environment for the same and getting started with it.
A good friend of mine at Xda pointed to some resource which I'll go through soon. But in the meantime any additional help will be great.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

[SOLVED] Any FTDI enabled Kernel's for the prime?

Hey Guys,
I've been working on a project that requires me to connect an arduino to my prime. I've been searching around and have had no luck finding a kernel thats been compiled with the FTDI drivers. I'm not quite savvy enough to do it on my own, so I'm reaching out to you guys to find out if you know of any kernel's for our prime with this driver enabled? Or maybe some enterprising dev on here would like to help me make one.
Thanks for reading.

Possibly I'm trying to find the doc I found a few days ago. http://www.ftdichip.com/Android.htm has some info.
I did find a pdf that described how to add to an android kernel. Most of the info I've found revolves around just creating an application. I'm looking to have access to the device in a chroot environment, which means I really need kernel support.

I have a dev environment on my laptop(eclipse, adb, github, etc), but I'm not sure its going to be very good for compiling a kernel. late 2011 Macbook air. Last time I tried to compile cm10 I think it tied up a machine for several days (It was for my old nexus S). I really can't afford to do that with this laptop.
I am a dev of sorts, just not an android one. I'm not afraid of command line. Just need some help getting pushed in the right direction. Thnks for the help Josh.

Well this is definitely where I get stuck. Maybe I need to switch to a different rom. He mentions the kernel source in his thread here
He says:
It is the same as the TF700 source but with some changes in ramdisk for TF201.
https://github.com/Hundsbuah/tf700t_10_6_1_14_4​
But I have no idea what the changes are and whether they are included within this kernel source that he has linked too.
Am I just looking in the wrong place?

FTDI Kernel Installed
Just a quick update to this thread if anyone has been watching. The Crombi-KK Team put together a kernel for me with the FTDI drivers installed. I've since managed to get communication going over serial with and arduino.
I would highly recommend reaching out to Josh and the Crombi-kk team if you have a similar request. As they already have a kernel compiled and ready to go.
