This is the port of Ubuntu Phone to the Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000
What works:
Wifi (fixed on 18-07)
GSM (only mobile connection)
Webbrowsing
Taking photos (fixed)
If you haveing trouble with GSM give it time to connect. If its still not working check this : https://plus.google.com/100264483712374857174/posts/3o1tjYo9Ghx
CREDITS
thanks to chasmodo for
manifest additions
camera driver
runtime intermediates files
thanks to Gerrett for
the hint to remove the GalaxyNoteSettings from build
fixing the wifi issue
The short way:
Download, push to sdcard, reboot to recovery, do a backup, do a full wipe and flash(keep the order of the files)
quantal-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip
Ubuntu n7000 nightly build
The long way:
Here is the official Canonical's Porting Guide
here we have the cm nightlies from wich we take the binaries for the base system.
Now, I will set up my building system how described in the Guide (Since I've already a working Ubuntu 13.04 x64 PreAlpha installation, I'll use that as base)
Seting up the development environment
What is not in the guide:
Code:
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:phablet-team/tools
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install phablet-tools
sudo apt-get install bzr
sudo apt-get remove openjdk-7-jdk
sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jdk
So, on the console
(if there are german speaking people following, this is how you can kill the waiting time http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_poaB9jLAc and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMim3OV2cQE and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-jbeV_kpaU have fun)
Code:
mkdir -p UbuntuTouch/GT-N7000 #at a location with 20 gigs of free space(yes, its a lot :D )
cd UbuntuTouch/GT-N7000
git config --global user.email "[email protected]" #needs this only once for
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
phablet-dev-bootstrap ./ #this will take a while, it will download all sources except the kernel if I understood right
Edit .repo/manifest.xml and add following at the same xml level where the other project tags are.
(First search for, maybe they are already in that file)
Code:
then again on console:
Code:
repo sync
Code:
adb devices #just a short check to see if the connection is working, if it's in the list, go further, if not check whats the problem
. build/envsetup.sh
brunch cm_n7000-userdebug #if everything is ok, this will take a while
put the zip you get in the output onto your sdcard, download saucy-preinstalled-phablet-armhf.zip
reboot your n7000 into recovery mode, backup and flash first the preinstalled and then the build.
Have fun
Sounds good...keep us updated
Thanks
I have the required changes ready in the files incase someone is interested
was waiting for beerbong but he seems busy... times like these u wish u werent building remotely ^^
maybe utacka or chas(with his new pc) can help..
AW: [Ubuntu Touch] Porting the Ubuntu Touch Developer Preview to GT-N700
So what does that mean toxic? Do u already ported it? ??
no I'll try it this weekend
Re: [Ubuntu Touch] Porting the Ubuntu Touch Developer Preview to GT-N700
You don't have to use cm, you can use AOSP.
You can even use Samsungs kernel source (I haven't bothered building the latest so no idea how good it is our not) and the binary blobs from the latest stock build.
I'm building it for one of my tablets at the mo from AOSP, using an old but working kernel.

Forgive my offtopic, i'm interested of using Samsung sources for Galaxy SII i9100, instead of cyanogenmod 10.1, that isn't properly good for this device. can you tells me more about that?
Hi guys i'm getting an atrix to help out and play with. I don't have att instead i have Verizon so this is just for fun. I have a Galaxy Nexus and the forums are full of info to building roms and kernels so i figured i would start my own cm10 rom for myself and if at some point down the road others. I found this link http://wiki.jeago.com/index.php?title=Build_for_olympus and desided i would give it a go and at least have a base. However i ran into a problem, When i get down to the "lunch" command i do not have "cm_olympus-userdebug" listed? can anyone steer me on the right path or is this an old Link that has since been pulled? Thanks guys
Doesn't matter if it's not listed. As long as you have synced the right repo, "lunch cm_olympus-userdebug" still works as expected.
I think it pulls the list from the official CM10 repo (which does not include olympus), but the command will work with the files you've synced (which does include olympus).

Hi. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I guess that the official CM repositories doesn't have branches later than CM7 for the olympus. You have to get them somewhere else for CM9 and later.
Yes, that's what I said. The official CM10 repo does not include olympus.

Ooops, read too fast, my apologies...
I forked vendor, device and kernel repositories from CyanogenMod-Atrix github, but these are pre-alpha repos with known (and unknown) bugs. (BTW, though it compiles fine, the recovery won't install the resulting zip on my Atrix, still figuring out what's wrong)
ok now i'm getting way lost here. how do i go about adding this to my current files?
ok guys i just noticed that the link i was following had me pulling ICS not JB...wow i'm slow today.
Wiped everything and starting fresh. anyone have a guide to pull the needed build. Atrix4g18 sugested i needed https://github.com/epinter/android/branches and jb-olympus-new. I'm going to start over and this time pull repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b jellybean instead of the ICS and then i should be at least closer to what i need.

I'm not sure how to use the default.xml file in the link that quetzalcoatl2435 gave us, but in my case I created a local_manifest.xml file (from here) with the extra repos I needed and copied to .repo/local_manifest directory in the source tree root.
EDIT:
I think I got it, someone who really knows please confirm: instead of the deffault CM repo init, issue this: repo init -u git://github.com/epinter/android.git -b jb-olympus-new. Is that right?
OK for the time being i'm going to start rebuilding my repo again. i scratched everything so have to download the JB repo now. anyone with more info to using the Default.xml file or where it should be placed? Thanks guys
After looking at the Default.xml it seems he just added the Atrix to the list so i would assume i will copy paste and rerun repo sync? should i copy first then run repo sync or no?
All i have to say is thank you Verizon LTE with unlimited data and free tether LOL.
Don't use jb-olympus-new. That's for the new kernel and does not have the proprietary files included. You need to search for and add them manually.
Use this:
repo init -u git://github.com/epinter/android.git -b jb-olympus
repo sync
Assuming you've already installed all pre-requisites correctly, next do:
. build/envsetup.sh
lunch cm_olympus-userdebug
brunch olympus

No need to pull CyanogenMod's github. It's included in epinter's github. No need to mess with the xml files either, just repo sync, lunch, and brunch.

I think for the most compatible with the new kernel will need to add 2 more branches

No need to add android_device_motorola_olympus.git to jb-olympus-new. It's already included by epinter. You only need to add the vendor files.
BTW, I was talking about the jb-olympus branch, not the jb-olympus-new branch.
The new branch is not for daily use (yet).
Thanks you guys. I had a github time out earlier so will be starting fresh here soon.

And the countdown begins..... I have another 8gb of ram i removed thinking it was causing Build issues for my Gnex (turns out it was missing some blobs...oops) i'll be putting that back in before i start building. Going to start with a clone copy of this rom, Anyone know what happens with the new kernel and this? Yes i know it's alpha but i'm testing so that's what i need to focus on.
ok guys i went over this a few times and I found a few errors that i was able to fix by installing packages that were missing (13.04 64-bit btw). But i'm stuck on this one. anyone have any idea? this is after the Brunch olympus command. After more hunting on google seems i might need (sudo apt-get install libxml2-utils) so starting the Brunch again we'll see.

? I have pritty well read every post in the Atrix forum. I just wanted to know if this ROM would be made public when ready, so that there is another CM10 rom apart from Epinters.
this is from epinter's source. The first post says that i'm building this for fun and to help out if i can, and at some point down the road MAYBE be a public rom, my skills are limited and i don't feel at this stage that i'm rdy to release a ROM to the public, that's not saying i won't..just not soon. As for now i'm thinking i should be building this on 12.04 LTS because i keep running into Compiling errors... now i've got another one that's im trying to figure out.
Anyone have any idea's what i'm missing now lol.
How does one port ROMs to another phone? I'm looking to try and port Xylon to the Find 5.
Sent from my X909 using xda app-developers app
it's really not that difficult. just have to adjust some overlays, change some stuff in vendor and maybe grab the camera from CM if the changes haven't been made to that ROM.
if you are building from source:
Find the 4.2.2 source code of the ROM you want to port
Get the manifest.
Add the CM10.1 device/kernel tree and proprietary libs in the .repo/local_manifest/roomservice.xml
sync all the repos
(do whatever the source might need you to set up: EG paranoid android, need you to setup your device properly in vendor/pa/* files)
compile. Fix any problems(maybe missing files, etc)
you could try a non-4.2.2-based ROM to port, but you'll run into more incompatibility issues to fix

assuming this is the one you want to port (it is using 4.2.2, so hopefully it'll be easier)
read their README: https://github.com/XYAOSP/buildscripts

https://github.com/XYAOSP/platform_manifest/blob/jb4.2/default.xml
use repo and sync all the repos
then see how I get the device specific files here? do the same https://git.ngvincent.com/projects/oppo-x909-cm10/wiki/Build#Get-device-specific-sources-and-build
then follow whatever instructions needed to build. if it uses CM based building (which i think they do here, then do

select the find5 entry (if it;s not there, then do lunch, select find5, mka)
wait for it to fail. read error message. fix error message. repeat last 3 steps .. Google is your friend... learn to love google

use google and your own intuition to help you (this is why you should build the Cm10.1 ROM first.... the knowledge you gain will help you)
most likely either github is down, or the path referencing it is invalid, or something......
but the question is, do we need htc-msm8960? most likely no, since the oppo kernel is self contained

I've only started playing with android source code in March/early april... and these are things that I've learned/picked up since then.

make: *** wait: No child processes. Stop.
That is the last fine before it gives me control of terminal again.

a few tips
typically, compilers only stop when there's an error, not warnings (unless you set flags like -Werror )
compiling is parallelized.... let's say you have a quad core, you can compile 4 projects simultaneously... when you have an error on the first make file, it stops.... but the other 3 projects will continue compiling and outputting logs until they're done (then the scheduler sees the first make file has an error, doesn't execute any more make builds and halts), so the last log file/line might not be showing you the error
For CM10.1, find5 is official now... you can just use brunch instead of breakfast/lunch & mka

In essence, I scour the log for errors?
I just presumed as CM10 already existed on the Oppo Find 5, it would be an error-free compile.

you could source the log for errors
or just run the compile script again and again.... the scheduler will continue building other packages, but it'll come to a point where it can't build anything else without that broken package.... and hence, the error in the log will be obvious(since everything else is already built, no logs from them)
it should be an error-free compile, but sometimes things could happen (a small tweak in package/A gives some problems when compiling with package/B)
I would say, most likely there's some build package incompatibility in your system.
I keep getting this sync error:
Code:
Unexpected end of command stream
Fetching projects: 99% (415/419) fatal: Couldn't find remote ref refs/heads/android-4.4.2_r1
error: Cannot fetch android_frameworks_opt_mms
error: Cannot fetch TheMuppets/proprietary_vendor_htc
also, if i have a working cm official, what can i pull from it that would work with omni?

The error is incomplete... I have no idea WHICH repo it's looking for that branch on since it's failing on multiple repos.
My guess would be a malformed omni.dependencies or a bad manifest in .repo/local_manifests/
I can tell you that syncing TheMuppets will result in broken builds 90% of the time.
What should I do for device props instead of muppets? And malformed omni.dependencies? That can affect it?

Yes, because what's in omni.dependencies gets synced as well. So if it tells repo to sync something that isn't there...
So omni is like building other ROMs? Just like building cm but change the cm parts to omni and adding twrp?
On the HTC one xl (Evita) and I really liked the multi window and thought we were overdue for an Omni build, so I wanted to try building it myself instead of waiting for one

In essence, yes. And I applaud you for being proactive and starting to compile for yourself.

everything is syncing beautifully now...just one quick question...
for omni, should i add to the sync the CyanogenMod/android_device_htc_evita git repo with the build? i mean, with the build, the only thing that's really specified is the kernel and thats it, so there has to be more variety than just that, isn't there?

Nope, not really. I'd try to sync only Omni's repos (and Google's), and leave other ROMs out of it. Assuming you're trying to build for the evita, and Omni doesn't have one for that, then you're best bet is to:
1. Fork (or create) a device tree
2. Make sure it's omnified
3. Add it to local_manifest
4. Once you have it up and running with minimal bugs, request to have Omni fork your device tree so it can be supported.

Omnified? This always confuses me. How do users have twrp if they have cwm installed? Will it overwrite?
And for the Evita tree, its basically me downloading cm tree locally and changing it to comply with omni? And then uploading it to my git so it can be added to local_manifest with that?

They don't. It's either one or the other.

If you install it, yes. You don't have to, but it's recommended.

More or less. If you haven't seen this yet:
Porting Omni To Your Device
everything is synced and i followed the guide about the .mk files and vendorsetup.sh
at the beginning of the build, it showed these issues and i was wondering what they meant
Code:
build/core/product_config.mk:241: *** No matches for product "omni_evita". Stop.
WARNING: Trying to fetch a device that's already there
EDIT: the build died:
Code:
build/core/product_config.mk:241: *** No matches for product "omni_evita". Stop.
** Don't have a product spec for: 'omni_evita'
** Do you have the right repo manifest?

Hi,
I synced the CM10.1 source last weekend. I mucked about with the kernel. I pointed it to Christopher83's custom toolchain. I built it. It works. I'm content.
However my plan was to revive 4.2.2 and actually ADD to it, otherwise you could just go and download the zip which the Andromadus team uploaded. Unfortunately I've discovered that I'm completely incompetent when it comes to firstly finding things to add, secondly finding the commit, and then thirdly trying to cherry pick and apply the commit so it works. I haven't really got to stage 3 yet.
So here's my suggestion: could someone please work with me or if syncing sources etc. is not possible, at least help me by being knowledgeable enough to know some good features, point me to the commits, and help me fix conflicts so that I can apply them successfully. Therefore I either want a team, the 4.2.2 revival team as it were, or someone or some people to help me if they can't directly interact with the sources. Don't worry if you can't build for whatever reason: if you can sync specific repos, e.g. settings, frameworks base, and modify them, and push them, so that I can build the ROM, that's fine. Anyone who helps at all will be deemed equally if not more important than myself, as I expect I'll ultimately just end up being the builder.
Thanks very much for your support.
I can help you with that. Tell me when you start your project and what errors did you get
Best Regards,
MarcoMarinho

Thanks firstly I thought a simple thing to do would be to add the recent app screen ram bar from SlimBean, but I can't find the commit anywhere in the SlimRoms github. Perhaps you know where it is or can find it for me, then I could cherrypick it and we could fix the conflicts together and we'd have our first unofficial CM10.1 ROM with additional features!

That looks interesting, but it's for KitKat... I'll try later once I'm confident. In the meantime, how can I get this to work: https://github.com/SlimRoms/packages_apps_Settings/commit/fb2ea42468bea20f09b99048c9e7535b6cde643f I'm OK apart from the very last bit in UserInterface.java, although I'm applying that code to SystemSettings.java anyway. Thanks
@demkantor @_MarcoMarinho_ I've synced the PA source, can you help me at all setting up the vision.adds file? Thanks
Sure thing, assume this is for 4.2 android right?

Yep, as you know I synced the CM10.1 source a while ago so I used repo init --reference to sync the PA jellybean-legacy sources. Thanks for helping
paste this in a folder and title it
local_manifests
then add it to your .repo folder in ROM directory
I commented out a few things you may need to add, and there is possibly more but i dont have time to look into it all right now. just start with this, repo sync, and then build and check for errors
best of luck!
damn.... giving me uknown file, had to zip it first, so unzip the contents!

Thanks, do I only need to add these to the vision.adds file then, or do I not need a vision.adds file at all now?

cant say I've ever used a vision.adds file in a source build, I just find the files i need in github, download source, create a local_manifest, sync, check errors for somethings to add to manifest, build, check for errors, google how to fix, fix, fix, fix ,fix, then bam, got a rom that works.
but I can look into this vision.adds business, I don't think it will be necessary as this will place need files in the proper directories in your source code for you, I assume that's what the vision.adds would do?

Here's the bit from their guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30958881&postcount=2 I'm not sure what it does though. I'm completely clueless about that whole post actually. I think it just syncs stuff after a sync.. or something. I don't know why though, isn't that what a local manifests file is for?
hmm... it looks like there will be a bit more to make than just the local_manifests
but i would attempt this first and if it doesnt work than follow the direction in that post as there me be a special way needed to build for pa, which i never have tried to build
most of what they are after will get pulled from local_manifests folder and placed appropriately. but at the same time... never used ./rom-build.sh before so this may be specific to pa, as in you need to follow their steps....
eh, just give it a try, if it doesnt work ill help you create those json files and build it the way laid out in their guide!

Isn't easy, you need to add more repos to configure it for our phone.
This is very diferent:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45827346&postcount=3467
As I said before, you need extra repos than CM needs. You can talk to the dev that made the SlimBean for our phone, as it's based on AOSP he needed to configure it as well.
