[TUTORIAL] So You Want To Build AOKP/ICS for the Thunderbolt? - Thunderbolt Android Development

This is strictly just a reference guide/tutorial! If you cannot simply follow directions and copy/paste, I'm not going to help you! This is idiot-proof.
Build Environment​
Operating system -- Tested on Ubuntu 10.04 (64bit)
Terminal
Decent hardware (minimum of at least a dual core CPU and 4 GB of RAM)
Optimally have an SSD (standard mechanical drives work as well but slow down the process drastically)
Must have required packages for building installed, I will list them further down
Required Packages​
Simply copy and paste this in a terminal window:
Code:
sudo apt-get install curl git-core gnupg flex bison gperf libsdl1.2-dev libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.6-dev squashfs-tools build-essential zip curl libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev sun-java6-jdk pngcrush schedtool g++-multilib lib32z1-dev lib32ncurses5-dev lib32readline5-dev gcc-4.3-multilib g++-4.3-multilib
Let that install and then proceed.
Getting the Source​
Make required directories
Obtain repo binary
Add repo binary to your path
Give repo binary proper permissions
Initialize empty repo
Sync repo
Grab device tree and vendor tree which are not included in the AOKP manifest
Add Mecha to the vendor setup
Alright, so now we're getting there. I have outlined the basics of what we're about to do and broke them down as I know them. This is all pretty much going to be copy/paste so it'll be fairly difficult to screw this up
Copy/paste:
Make directory for repo binary
Code:
mkdir ~/bin
Add directory for repo binary to your path
Code:
PATH=~/bin:$PATH
Download repo binary and place it in the proper directory
Code:
curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo
Give the repo binary the proper permissions
Code:
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
Create directory for where the AOKP repo will be stored and synced
Code:
mkdir ~/aokp
Move to our new AOKP directory
Code:
cd ~/aokp
Initialize the AOKP repo and download the manifest
Code:
repo init -u git://github.com/AOKP/platform_manifest.git -b master
Sync AOKP source
Code:
repo sync -jX
X == Number of cores your CPU has
Grab the device tree needed for mecha
Code:
git clone git://github.com/ProTekk/device_htc_mecha.git -b aokp device/htc/mecha
Grab the vendor tree needed for mecha
Code:
git clone git://github.com/ProTekk/vendor_htc_mecha.git -b ics vendor/htc/mecha
Add mecha to the vendor setup
Code:
gedit vendor/aokp/vendorsetup.sh
Now here you'll have to do some "manual" work. At the end of the file add:
Code:
add_lunch_combo aokp_mecha-userdebug
Save and close the file.
Start the build​
This is probably the EASIEST part of all, simply copy/paste this command and walk away!
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh && lunch aokp_mecha-userdebug && make otapackage -jX
Where X == cores per CPU again.
Syncing the repo is dependent upon your Internet connection. It can take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours to fully sync. Same thing goes for build times. Don't expect this to be short. If you have patience and have no build errors, you'll end up with a flashable zip in ~/aokp/out/target/product/mecha! Happy crack-flashing!

Sorry I'm a noob so this is probably a really dumb question but r u supposed to have ur phone plugged into the computer while doing the terminal on Ubuntu???

Since we have an official version of ICS now. Does the github have the updated stuffs so we can have a fully working build? I want this as I'm getting tired of sense.

I am following this as well, this seems to be an old document because a lot of the links are dead. What I did for the libs is:
(excluding the others that are required)
sudo apt-get install gcc-4.6-multilib g++-4.6-multilib lib32z1-dev lib32ncurses5-dev lib32readline-gplv2-dev
And I plan to grab the Java SDK from Oracle's website.

That is exactly what you have to do prior to building from source.

Thanks for this tip. I've installed the updated libs that you suggested, then installed the OpenJDK using:
Code:
sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk
Is OpenJDK okay to use or is there a specific need for Sun Java JDK? I found the link for the JDK here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java
Now that the updated libs and the JDK were installed properly, I ran the command that ProTekk posted minus the previously installed libs:
Code:
sudo apt-get install curl git-core gnupg flex bison gperf libsdl1.2-dev libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.6-dev squashfs-tools build-essential zip curl libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev pngcrush schedtool g++-multilib
Everything installed properly. Just wanted to check if I'm now ready to build the source or if there's anything else I need to do beforehand.

Here is a good guide getting java and all setup right to build from source. Of course don't use the git stuff just the java setup.
I don't think his mecha stuff is on there anymore. Could be wrong.

But I changed ProTekk to CoolSilver and it appeared to work fine. Anyone still attempting this that might be able to help?

I'm not sure what level of involvement any of you are interested in, but I'm currently working on porting CM9 to the Thunderbolt with sources at https://github.com/jblack248. Of course, it's not incorporated into the AOKP build process although that shouldn't be too difficult since it's probably just an additional makefile (an assumption).
Currently the RIL is being difficult with mobile data, but calling and SMS work using CM's HTC RIL. It's not ready for a release just yet, but I thought I'd give a shout to all of you since I see you're trying to build from source. Hopefully I can help in some way; the Thunderbolt forum could use some positive excitement.

The gitt link a few posts above is for the jellybean branch hence the -b jb for the AOKP git clone. Try -b ics
Ill take a look at the cm9 stuff tomorrow. Need to partition more HD space to Linux.

[TUTORIAL][HOWTO] Building CyanogenMod 7 for the HTC Thunderbolt [FINAL]

How to build your own CyanogenMod 7:
Install the Build Packages
Install using the package manager of your choice:
For 32-bit & 64-bit systems:
Code:
git-core gnupg flex bison gperf libsdl1.2-dev libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.6-dev squashfs-tools build-essential zip curl libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev sun-java6-jdk pngcrush schedtool
For 64-bit only systems:
Code:
g++-multilib lib32z1-dev lib32ncurses5-dev lib32readline5-dev gcc-4.3-multilib g++-4.3-multilib
NOTE: gcc-4.3-multilib g++-4.3-multilib is no longer available for Ubuntu 11.04 64-bit, but should still build without issue.
NOTE: On Ubuntu 10.10, and variants, you need to enable the parter repository to install sun-java6-jdk:
Code:
add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ maverick partner"
Create the Directories
You will need to set up some directories in your build environment.
To create them:
Code:
mkdir -p ~/bin
mkdir -p ~/android/system
Install the Repository
Code:
curl "http://php.webtutor.pl/en/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/repo" > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
PATH=~/bin:$PATH
Now enter the following to initialize the repository:
Code:
cd ~/android/system/
repo init -u git://github.com/ProTekk/android.git -b gingerbread
repo sync -j16
Copy proprietary files
Code:
git clone git://github.com/koush/proprietary_vendor_htc.git ~/android/system/vendor/htc
Download RomManager
NOTE: This only needs to be done when an update to RomManager is released. If you are-up-to date, you may skip to Building CyanogenMod.
Download RomManager which is needed by the build:
Code:
cd ~/android/system/device/htc/mecha
~/android/system/vendor/cyanogen/get-rommanager
Check for updates
First, check for updates in the source:
Code:
cd ~/android/system/
repo sync
Configure Build & Compile
Now, the environment must be configured to build and the ROM compiled, from code, for the Thunderbolt.
Code:
. build/envsetup.sh && brunch mecha
Now for the lazy people who don't want to type all that crap:
Download and run the new script: http://fzservers.com/newmecha.sh
You can do whatever you like while it runs. If you have never created a CyanogenMod repo on your local system then go out to dinner, grab some coffee, call your mother or do something time consuming because this will be a LONG wait depending on your Internet connection and system performance. The build will run as soon as the script sets everything up and again it is LOOOONG depending on the performance of your system.
Everything will be located in
Code:
~/android/system
Once it's done you can locate the flashable .zip in the "out" directory of your CyanogenMod repo. Happy crackflashing to all!
Reserved....
Fixed an issue with the build script. Please redownload it and try again.

What's advantage of using AOKP if they forked from CyanogenMod? It would be same for HP Touchpad, maybe it would be even behind in update until AKOP merge new commits from CyanogenMod git.

There are lots of advantages in using AOKP. Rom Control has so many tweaks. It's really a great build. Only certain things are forked (which you will find in every AOSP variant)

It is in the partner repo so you need to make sure it is enabled.
If you open Synaptic and go to Tools/Repositories, then Other Software you should be able to check off Canonical Partners and Canonical Partners (Source Code). Reload, close Synaptic, and try again.
To anyone on the Ubuntu 12.04 nightlies, don't even bother trying to compile this, let alone install the dependencies. Build errors up the arse, repo sync errors, and a myriad of other hassles that just aren't worth it. A fresh install of 11.10 fixed everything for me, even following the same exact steps I was doing on 12.04.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Rather than do this in a VM, I'd like to create a second partition on my desktop and just run Ubuntu native.
Any recommendations for partition size? Whenever I create an Ubuntu VM, VirtualBox recommends 8GB, which I generally increase to 24GB (4GB for swap, 4GB for /home, and 16GB for / mounts) but as I've never tried to build from source, I have no idea what the space requirements are.
Please advise.
Went ahead and built it in a VirtualBox VM, on top of an SSD, with the device settings in VBox set to reveal to the guest OS that the host HDD is an SDD. Seems very fast. I configured my VM with a Dynamic drive, and set the max space to 64GB (doubt I'll ever come close to that) with 4GB RAM, 4 virtual CPU cores, and 4GB of swap space.
The current size of the virtual disk after my first build of the tenderloin source is 33GB. I'd say if you were going to set up an actual hard drive partition that 40GB would be a minimum, and probably closer to 64GB would be wise depending on if you want to build two versions simultaneously.
For those who struggle with the initial setup, if you're using Ubuntu 11.10, you won't be able to add sun-java6-jdk via apt-get simply by adding Canonical's partner repos. Sun is no longer making the package available via the partner repo's.
Instead, open a terminal window and do the following:
Code:
cd ~/

This downloads a shell script from flexion.org, which is the group that used to provide the sun-java6-jdk packages in Canonical's partner repo's before Canonical decided to block them for what they view as violating copyright law. The script is just a wrapper for steps you could take manually, and if you're curious what it does, before the last line above, you can always do the following to view the contents of the script:
Code:
cat oab-java6.sh
Obviously, use of this script presumes you've read and accepted Oracle's license terms, etc., found here:

Hopefully this helps some of our members who are getting stuck with the basics.

I was able to successfully build the image. Can someone point me to how contributing back. How do i send files for review. How to revert back a file to original state if the modifications I made dont work.
If someone could point in the right direction , I would try to contribute something to the community.

[GUIDE] Compile CM9 for the Thunderbolt

The purpose of this guide is to show the steps required to compile CM9 specifically for the Thunderbolt. This may be adapted for other ROMs in the future. However, I will not describe how to setup your development environment as that information changes based on distribution versions and has been done many times over. A few good references are here, with an example of mine at the end of this post:
CyanogenMod Wiki - Learning to Build CyanogenMod
CyanogenMod Build Guide for Nexus 7 (Use as an example)
My goal is to aid others in development as the steps to get everything working on the Thunderbolt are not straight-forward unless you know what they are. Even though I had plenty of sources when I started, I still had to spend many hours to get them working. The camera and radio need some extra steps, but those are now streamlined for both my benefit and everyone else's.
I added these steps on gist.github as scripts, although I have not tested them as such. It would be best if you do each line at a time to better understand what you're doing.
Build CM9 Thunderbolt - First Time Only
Build CM9 Thunderbolt - Subsequent Builds
For the first build only:
Code:
mkdir android
cd android/
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b ics
mkdir -p .repo/local_manifests
wget https://raw.github.com/jblack248/android/ics/local_manifest.xml -O .repo/local_manifests/cm_mecha.xml

How I set up the build environment on Xubuntu 13.04 64-bit - Gist.github:
Code:
echo "Install Android Development Tools and Dependencies"
sudo apt-get install -y android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot git-core gnupg flex bison gperf libsdl1.2-dev libesd0-dev libwxgtk2.8-dev squashfs-tools build-essential zip curl libncurses5-dev zlib1g-dev lib32z1-dev pngcrush schedtool g++-multilib lib32z1-dev lib32ncurses5-dev lib32readline-gplv2-dev gcc-multilib g++-multilib schedtool libc6-dev-i386 ccache
echo "Link zconf.h to fix Android compile issues in 13.04"
ln -s /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/zconf.h /usr/include
echo "Installing Development Tools"
sudo apt-get install -y meld gedit-plugins git gitk gtkhash
echo "Customize .bashrc"
echo "export USE_CCACHE=1" >> ~/.bashrc
echo "ccache -M 20G > /dev/null 2>&1" >> ~/.bashrc
# these locations will be different for you, depending on where you installed the SDK
# echo "export PATH=${PATH}:~/Documents/Development/bin:~/Documents/Development/adt-bundle-linux-x86_64/sdk/tools:~/Documents/Development/adt-bundle-linux-x86_64/sdk/platform-tools"
Just a note; for the sake of newbs you may want to include instructions on getting the repo script as it doesn't just work OOB.
Code:
remote object '/system/lib/libcamera.so' does not exist
remote object '/system/lib/libcneapiclient.so' does not exist
remote object '/system/lib/libcneqmiutils.so' does not exist
remote object '/system/etc/firmware/a225p5_pm4.fw' does not exist
remote object '/system/etc/firmware/a225_pfp.fw' does not exist
remote object '/system/etc/firmware/a225_pm4.fw' does not exist
remote object '/system/etc/firmware/a300_pfp.fw' does not exist
remote object '/system/etc/firmware/a300_pm4.fw' does not exist
I got this when running ./extract-files.sh although all other files extracted fine, and I'm assuming at the very least libcamera.so is 100% necessary.
You are correct, libcamera.so is especially needed. You can either copy the files manually or modify the extract-files.sh script and extract the ROM zip to a folder to copy the files locally instead of using ADB. Change 'adb pull' to 'cp' and modify the path of the first parameter to the ROM zip folder.
I referenced a couple other guides that help you get the development set up, even the repo bin. That information changes, has been done over many times, and isn't as useful in the long run unless I micro-manage this guide. If I get a chance I might flesh this out a little, but I'm not sure how much of a desire there is for this. I'll help where I can, though.
I updated the OP with fixes to make sure everything works automatically. You no longer have to use the extract-files.sh script (or setup adb) since I made a vendor repo to include all of those files for you. Thanks to santod and others for pointing out a number of problems.
Note: As of 2013-06-29 CM9 is in a broken state as we're getting the kernel and stock OTA blobs to work properly.

How to build Carbon rom JB 4.3.1 for i9195 & i9190

How to build Carbon for Serranoltexx{gt-I9195} & serrano3gxx {gt-I9190}
this guide is based on cyanogenmod's how to wiki
i made this easy, you just need do these things and you will download only carbon rom and serranoltexx spesific files so you dont need edit much files. i made it easier for you.
For both 32-bit & 64-bit systems, you'll need:
Code:
bison build-essential curl flex git-core gnupg
gperf libesd0-dev libncurses5-dev libsdl1.2-dev
libwxgtk2.8-dev libxml2 libxml2-utils lzop
openjdk-6-jdk openjdk-6-jre pngcrush schedtool
squashfs-tools xsltproc zip zlib1g-dev
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
In addition to the above, for 64-bit systems, get these:
Code:
g++-multilib gcc-multilib lib32ncurses5-dev
lib32readline-gplv2-dev lib32z1-dev
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Open your Terminal and paste these commands line by line
Code:
mkdir -p ~/bin
mkdir -p ~/carbon
curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo
chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
export PATH=${PATH}:~/bin
Code:
cd ~/carbon/
Download the Source
this is original carbon source but i edited it because it includes alot devices, kernel and vendor files that we dont need.
Code:
repo init -u https://github.com/proxuser/android.git -b jb3 && repo sync -f
wait it downloads the source. go out and drink a coffee or play with your smartphone, do whatever you want
it downloads carbon spesific serrano3gxx and serranoltexx devices.
after you full downloaded Carbon source, let get include some fm fixes.
Code:
cd ~/carbon/frameworks/av
git fetch http://review.cyanogenmod.org/CyanogenMod/android_frameworks_av refs/changes/24/51424/1 && git cherry-pick FETCH_HEAD
cd ~/carbon/frameworks/base
git fetch http://review.cyanogenmod.org/CyanogenMod/android_frameworks_base refs/changes/52/49752/2 && git cherry-pick FETCH_HEAD
if you sync your repo these patches will be overwritten by carbon rom. you need apply them again like above.
so are we ready to build ? :S maybe ? ok lets try
go to vendor/carbon folder and open vendorsetup.sh
then add these lines bottom or top of file
Code:
add_lunch_combo carbon_serranoltexx-userdebug
add_lunch_combo carbon_serrano3gxx-userdebug
if you want build for i9195 go to terminal
cd ~/carbon/
Code:
source build/envsetup.sh
breakfast serranoltexx
if you want build for i9190 go to terminal
cd ~/carbon/
Code:
source build/envsetup.sh
breakfast serrano3gxx
you will get information with what build number, what device and so on..
now time to start building
Code:
export USE_CCACHE=1
you want build for i9195 then
Code:
brunch serranoltexx
you want build for i9190 then
Code:
brunch serrano3gxx
if you face any errors, ask it here.

you also can try
make carbon -j7
after select serrano*** in lunch menu
i added missing projects in my manifest too.
you can do a repo init and repo sync again.
it will only add new projects to repo and will sync them.

there are enough guides for kernel build. but all this needs basic knowledge. but i may write next weeks a guide about kerlen build for s4 mini devices.

Building Android for some devices (Huawei Y6 - msm8909 - in this Guide)

Today i share my knowledge to setup and build lineageos-7 for the Huawei Y6.
First of all we need to install some things.
Run these commands with root or sudo.
Code:
apt-get install -y bison build-essential curl flex git gnupg gperf libesd0-dev liblz4-tool libncurses5-dev libsdl1.2-dev libwxgtk3.0-dev libxml2 libxml2-utils lzop maven openjdk-8-jdk pngcrush schedtool squashfs-tools xsltproc zip zlib1g-dev g++-multilib gcc-multilib lib32ncurses5-dev lib32readline6-dev lib32z1-dev ccache rsync tig sudo imagemagick android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot bc bsdmainutils file screen bash-completion wget nano
This one works well for Ubuntu 16.04 64 bit.
After that create a user with that you like to build android and log in with that user.
You need to run the following command after login:
HTML:
mkdir ~/bin && cd ~/bin && curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > repo && chmod a+x repo && cd
After that you should configure git. For me it is:
HTML:
git config --global user.name "username" && git config --global user.email "[email protected]"
Now you can start to fetch the sources.:
HTML:
mkdir lineageos-7.1 && cd lineageos-7.1 && repo init -u git://github.com/LineageOS/android.git -b cm-14.1 && repo sync
That will set up up a fresh source for lineageos-7.1 at all. Everything from now is device specific.
First we should create the basic folders for our device. I always fetch the sources for the huawei cherry to get the deps.:
HTML:
cd ~/lineageos-7.1 && . build/envsetup.sh
That will set up the lineageos build env.
Next command:
HTML:
breakfast cherry
That will fetch some sources for qcom devices.
Now we need to get the files to build lineageos-7.1 for our huawei y6.
HTML:
cd ~/lineageos-7.1/kernel/huawei && git clone https://github.com/giorgio130/android_kernel_huawei_msm8916.git msm8908 -b cm-14.1 && cd ~/lineageos-7.1/devices/huawei && git clone https://github.com/giorgio130/android_device_huawei_scale.git scale -b cm-14.1 && git clone https://github.com/giorgio130/android_device_huawei_msm8909-common.git msm8909-common -b cm-14.1 && git clone https://github.com/giorgio130/proprietary_vendor_huawei.git ~/lineageos-7.1/vendor/huawei -b cm-14.1
That was a simple Do that after that command quene. Nothing special for linux users.
If you got everything at the right place, please edit:
lineageos-14.1/device/huawei/msm8909-common/BoardConfigCommon.mk
and change:
HTML:
TARGET_KERNEL_SOURCE := kernel/huawei/msm8916
to:
HTML:
TARGET_KERNEL_SOURCE := kernel/huawei/msm8909
Now we should be ready to go. Go back to the base folder and run:
HTML:
. build/envsetup.sh && export WITH_SU=true && brunch lineage_scale-userdebug
With that commands everybody should be able to build and run LineageOs for the Huawei Y6 and other devices. It is the same with only other devices.
Step 1.
HTML:
. build/envsetup.sh
will source up the LineageOS.
Step 2.
HTML:
export WITH_SU=true
will enable full root access inside the finished build.
Step 3.
HTML:
brunch lineage_scale-userdebug
will build a flashable zip file for the Huawei Y6 aka Huawei Scale.
HTML:
make clean && make clobber
will clean up your whole environment before or after you compiled Android. You need to run step 1, 2, and 3 again after you run this or changed something.
Edit 1: Moved text to code.
Edit 2: Added some stuff.
Edit 3: Cleanup
@Runner85sx thank a lot, was looking for such tutorial.
On the lineage for y6 scl l01 the rotation is reverse. Can please guide me how to solve it.
Ps am not a dev but want to learn, for can manage to do minor changes
Thanks a lot! Hope to see new developers get into this device. Thanks

I'm not sure why you have this problem. My device is working still well. I built new flashable zips and tested them. Everything okay till now here with an debranded Vodafone Huawei Y6 SCL-L01.
So you may you/me have a problem with DTS/DTB.
Can I use this to build AOSP for Y6?

I'm not an advanced developer but, if Runner85sx bring android 7 to our device, You'll be able to change some files and create older version (cm 11), but the only problem is, unfortunately there's a chance that drivers would have some problems or/and simply not work.
Just a stupid question... Can you tell me what files I need to edit to make it work on AOSP? I want to compile the source without compiling the kernel and using the stock one
thanks
How?
Whether other devices can use this to build a custom kernel and use this kernel source
@Runner85sx thank you... I feel so empowered.... now trying to figure out how to deal with the camera. Any idea where I must start, cause I am beginning to miss my selfies

Hello XDA Community! I'm building my first custom ROM and I have a question: Is it required to flash the ROM on the device or I can do something familiar to 'fastboot boot' style?
EDIT: And one more question: I'm making cm10 rom and will it work when I port our tree to this rom (kernel version etc)
EDIT 2: I have a problem while porting because cm10 didn't find cherry when typing breakfast cherry. Any Ideas?
Won't compile
Thank you Runner85sx so much for this comprehensive quick start guide. This is just what this community is missing.
I have changed in the following text all the backslashes to slashes in order for the forum to let me post. It thinks the paths are links and blocks my post as a new user. Ridiculous.
I run up to some issues executing the commands.
Firstly the 7th command I think should be:
HTML:
cd ~\lineageos-7.1\device\huawei
instead of:
HTML:
cd ~\lineageos-7.1\devices\huawei
Secondly the file that needs editing:
HTML:
~\lineageos-14.1\device\huawei\msm8909-common\BoardConfigCommon.mk
should be:
HTML:
~\lineageos-7.1\device\huawei\msm8909-common\BoardConfigCommon.mk
And lastly the last command
HTML:
brunch lineage_scale-userdebug
failed with the following output:

complaining that the directory "cyanogen" does not contain a directory called "msm8909-common", so I copied it from "~\lineageos-7.1\device\huawei\msm8909-common" (probably a stupid thing to do, but it was a quick try).
Then I had some compiling activity but unfortunately ended with the following output:
HTML:
Checking build tools versions...
build\core\base_rules.mk:183: *** device\huawei\msm8909-common\camera\QCamera2\HAL: MODULE.TARGET.SHARED_LIBRARIES.camera.msm8909 already defined by device\cyanogen\msm8909-common\camera\QCamera2\HAL.
build\core\ninja.mk:166: recipe for target '\home\hlucid\lineageos-7.1\out\build-lineage_scale.ninja' failed
make: *** [\home\hlucid\lineageos-7.1\out\build-lineage_scale.ninja] Error 1
make: Leaving directory '\home\hlucid\lineageos-7.1'
#### make failed to build some targets (43 seconds) ####
Does anybody have a clue of what is wrong? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
