Hey everyone.
I have downloaded CM9 source to build for our phone.
I have a problem: Since I have not built anything from source, I don't where to get the proprietary drivers for our phone.
I am guessing I would need dzo's ICS drivers, but I don't know where to get them from.
Can anyone tell me the URL of the driver for dzo's ICS and what command I need to enter in the terminal to download the drivers to the source.
Thanks a lot guys.
You can look at dzo's github. But it isn't enough for build CM9 so I'm building CM9 device and vendor tree for CM9.
You can look at my github.
Hi,
I am new with custom ROM and Android kernel things.
I successfully boot my phone with my kernel compiled from source with Google toolchain. And someone suggested to me to use Linaro toolchain.
Then I went through this page https://android-build.linaro.org/ to get some idea, seems none on Mako.
Any suggestion?
I am using arm-linux-androideabi-4.6 tool chain now for kernel compiling.
Regarding this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/development/kalilinux-nethunter-t3639411
The OP tywinlannister did not patch the kernel source code with Android USB HID PATCH To use the Android device as keyboard or mouse..This should be applied for nethunter ROM, But he didn't..
And I asked resurrection remix ROM maintainer Jleeblanch for Athene to look at this issue he did it , after applying the patch it didn't successfully compile ,there were errors..By seeing the error he said that the official kernel is partially patched already,so it is causing those errors..
If anybody looks into the problem it would be appreciated just in your free time only ...
The link to kernel source of Jleeblanch is the "Kali branch" https://github.com/Jleeblanch/android_kernel_motorola_msm8952
Any problem or suggestions regarding to this can be discussed here itself , that others can address the issue..
I too have been waiting for a working kernel so I am going to attempt to compile a working kernel with hid with my limited kernel development knowledge. I think it probably won't work as two far better devs than me have yet been unable however I will try anyway
Any help from fellow devs would be greatly appreciated

I am also a newbie to kernel development but I manually patched the hid sources to kernel source..
But when we complied it all those errors.
First I think we should delete all those hid patches all applied to the stock kernel source. Then compile it and then apply the patch by pelya...
My ROM s kernel developer say MM kernel will be easy but it is also partially patch
You may give it a try

I'm going to attempt to patch jleeblanch's rr kernel and then work backwards depending on the errors as last time I did something like this (s7 edge nethunter kernel) the error was a corrupted source and could easily have been fixed by finding a different repository rather than starting from scratch (what we did). I'm unsure as to what will happen after that however your idea is just as valid and I will try straight after (if you haven't already)
Test this kernel
Note that this is the Invicta kernel. You need a revert before the actual patch. Both commits are available on my gitlab.
Merged both into a single commit. Note that Invicta kernel is still 3.10.84. Upstream kernels may need additional changes. Test and let me know.
If you want to apply the patch to your kernel, you can use the attached patch file or use the commands below. ( using lineage kernel as example )
Code:
git clone https://github.com/LineageOS/android_kernel_motorola_msm8952.git
cd android_kernel_motorola_msm8952
git checkout cm-14.1
git remote add invicta https://gitlab.com/sileshn/android_kernel_motorola_athene.git
git fetch invicta
git cherry-pick 04aa0b10521b76e57226b2d1633e2b91cfa40263
If you don't get errors, you are good to go. If it errors, it needs more changes.

Kernel version 3.10.105 was initially the kernel I tried patching. I was easily able to merge the patch, but compiling it was a different story. According the errors I got, a lot of thing we're duplicated. I told the guy above that the MM based kernel (3.10.84 - which is the same version for MM thru Nougat on stock) would probably be the best bet. Looks like you had little trouble at all with merging into your Invicta Kernel (which is also kernel version 3.10.84).
Good job and thank you [emoji41]

Thanks @Silesh.Nair I have been waiting long time for this patch. Once again thank you sir...
The patch is working perfectly in 3.10.105 i.e jleeblanch kernel source..
Linux version 3.10.107-lineageOS ([email protected]) (gcc version 6.3.1 20170404 (Linaro GCC 6.3-2017.05) ) #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Aug 5 04:20:04 PDT 2017
And thank you @Jleeblanch Also

I am using lazyflasher
https://github.com/jcadduono/lazyflasher
Just clone this repo and place the zimage in there and type make, you will get a zip file. Just flash it through twrp recovery. Because only the kernel is changed , so i am just replacing the zimage. No need of unpacking and repacking of boot image.:good:
i have compiled a zimage from kali_defconfig from above source.but when i flased it to phone the phone is not booting.
I NEED A FIX FOR THIS

Don't use that source it isn't patched correctly, although i said mr. Jleeblanch to try , so he created it. The hid patch is merged into his resurrected kernel, but for mac injection i dont remember. So you better start from the first.
Use lineage kernel source and apply the patch from this thread #6th post, and see what toolchain is used to build lineage 14 kernel and use it. And additionally you have to make some changes in the defconfig, which is explained in the kali-nethunter github page.

Actually my orginal phone is honor 6x.I love portable hacking.Like with nethunter.I tried to build nethunter kernel for honor 6x.But i failed at HID.So i took by brothers old phone That is moto g4 plus.later i found that moto g4 plus at android 7 is 32 bit.As there is no nethunter for 32 bit i have decided that atleast i should use linux deploy.But later i suck at wifi drivers.When i enable wifi drivers in kernel then phone doenst boot.
The final thing is can anyone help me in fixing this so that i can build a complete usable kernel with Net Hunter support
I am new to android kernel build stuff. So please forgive me if this is not the right platform to raise this query.May i know the steps involved in building the kernel? I am trying to build the stock kernel updated by oneplus in github. Any help or supporting links about kernel compilation will be of utmost help to me. Thanks!

Kernel devs most likely uses scripts to compile their kernel which you can probably find in their github and adapt for yourself
