Android 3.2 source code available - Galaxy S II General

Just wondering...
Does this mean we can bake an SGS2 ROM with Android 3.2 now, or are the listed caveats insurmountable?
Android 3.2 source code available
As usual, and just like we had done before for Android 3.0 and 3.1,
the source code for the GPL and LGPL components of Android 3.2 is
available in the Android Open-Source Project, under the tag
android-3.2_r1
The process to build it is the same as what we had for 3.0 and 3.1:
# start from a master client
repo init -m 3.2-base.xml
repo sync
repo forall -c git checkout android-3.2_r1
# build with the regular process
# to come back to a plain master
repo init -m default.xml
repo sync
The caveats are unchanged since 3.1:
-the checkout command will return an error message because the tag
doesn't exist in all projects, ignore it.
-the compiled isn't any more likely to work on actual hardware as 3.1
did, since the same binary incompatibilities are still there.

honeycomb is just meant for tablets not cellphones..

ditto to the guy above me...
and this belongs in general, read the damn stickies!
We have known for about week now as well... thanks for the old news!
<Ninpo> rofl it's only the GPL and LGPL components
<Ninpo> so not the full thing by a long shot since most of Android is Apache licensed

Also, this is only the LGPL and GPL components, which is a hell of a long shot away from being actual Honeycomb sources, since most of Android is under the Apache license.

I remember reading that Google will release full source code for Honeycomb some time after Ice Cream Sandwich release.

Android 3.2 SDK now available ! & Android 3.2 Source Code Available in AOSP

http://www.engadget.com/2011/07/15/android-3-2-gets-official-updated-sdk-now-available/
and another good news....
Android 3.2 Source Code Available in AOSP
Right in our own backyard ...LOL
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/source-code-for-honeycomb-3-2-available-on-aosp-and/
Just to clarify for people who might get their hopes up, this is NOT the full Honeycomb 3.2 source code. It's ONLY the kernel source!
Honeycomb is on the Apache license, not the GPL, so they don't necessarily HAVE to release it.

Android 4.0 ICS - getting kernel source

Im looking for the source of the kernel used in ICS.
Looks like "git://android.git.kernel.org/kernel/common" is not there.
Can some one please point me for what vertion is used in ICS and where to clone it from.
Thanks
Check this:
http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html
Google switched to their own servers since the kernel.org break-in
It does not appear to be there. Which means we would have to be patient for kernel devs to get their cook on.
Found some infos here:
http://groups.google.com/group/andr.../87d2802239d46898?show_docid=87d2802239d46898
1st
Code:
git clone https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/common.git
2nd should give you an overview
Code:
git branch -r
3rd checkout a kernel
Code:
git checkout -b android-3.0 origin/android-3.0

[Q] Where to get the ICE Kernel and Android Source Code For P6800

Hi ALL:
I want building the ICE Source For My P6800, but I don't know where get it.
Thanks.
There's no ICS kernel or source available yet. You can try working from the current HC kernel source available on Samsungs open source portal though.
The rest of the Android source code you can get from AOSP or another open source project.

I'm not trying to be rude, but how is it possible that you know what to do with kernel source but you don't know how to use google search?
https://opensource.samsung.com < will this work for you or do you need a direct link to the file? In that case, do you need the P6800 or P6810 kernel source?
I downloaded P6800's code from opensource.samsung.com, and compiled the kernel, but I try to get the honeycomb 3.2 source from source.android.com, got same error.
repo init -u https ://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android_3.2.4_r1
error: revision android_3.2.4_r1 in manifests not found.
There is P6800 Readme.

[Q] searching for cm-10.1 source for Ideos X5

Hi
I have successfully upgraded my Ideos X5 U8800 to 2.3.5 official Gingerbread, rooted it, and then repartitioned it using Blepart recovery. Subsequently I have checked out cm11 source, including Blefish repositories/code for the U8800 (thanks for good work, by the way!), compiled/built and installed a ROM. This was my first build.
OK. Good so far. Only I am looking to build cm10.1 because my goal is to eventually get this handset running Ubuntu Touch. Therefore, the next step is to get it running on cm10.1.
My problem is that I cannot find the source I need. I have tried to set up a fresh source tree and check out cm10.1 source combined with Blefish's source by specifying branch cm10.1 for the latter, using the files I used in .repo/local_manifests to get the cm11 device source etc. from Blefish. However, something seems to be missing as the lunch command fails and compilation aborts. Also, I can see that development has been discontinued on this branch for the U8800.
Any suggestions?
The cm-10.1 branch is deprecated, and I am not planning to update it as cm-11.0 is better in any way.
Is the Ubuntu Touch source code only based on cm-10.1 code though? Maybe you could have success using the cm-11.0 code as it is right now? I am not familiar to how Ubuntu uses the lunch commands, it might be different than Android's default.

Thanks for the quick response!
The Ubuntu Touch guide specifically states cm-10.1, but I will sign up with their forums and check whether I can use cm-11.
The following passage from the Ubuntu Touch Porting Guide gives the impression I might be able to base my work on cm-11? Would you agree?
"For quick reference, these are the current components used from Android:
Linux Kernel (stock Android kernel provided by the vendor, with a few changes to support some extra features needed by Ubuntu, such as Apparmor)
OpenGL ES2.0 HAL and drivers
Media (stagefright) HAL, to re-use the hardware video decoders
RILD for modem support
As Ubuntu is running as the main host on top of an Android kernel and the communication between the Android services and HAL happens via Binder, Sockets and libhybris. "
I am hoping this could work, as it would be a tremendous help, now that I have a running ROM built on 20 May with your source tree for the device specific code etc. which works like a charm! :good:
Best regards,
aribk
