why do you use breakfast at all?
pac gets build with the build-pac.sh you dont need to run anything at all
sorry if i missed something :>

I dont know, i just started, im a noobie so i dont understand too much about it, I tough I would need to use breakfast a select my device codename to make it work, and about what you just answered, I'm completely lost lol

PAC rom imho is the easierst rom to build from source.
have a look at
https://github.com/PAC-man/pacman#getting-started
basically you have to
init a repo
sync the repo
run build-pac.sh
thats it.
make sure you have all needed programs installed for this but you should be able to find tutorials of which software you need to build android on ubuntu.

But what about the device codename? Don't need it at all?

have a look at the link i posted.
yes you need the device codename
if your device codename is ks01lte then you have to run:
build-pac.sh ks01lte
but please read the tutorial i posted, its <30 lines of text and explains ~99.9% of the build process

Thank you, if i still having trouble ill PM you

you're welcome.
Sure do that

Just a little question, is there any chance that my device isnt supported? I'm afraid of getting an error as it did when I type breakfast command.

I'm almost positive that is not supported by pac yet.
If it is supported by CM it shouldnt be a problem, iirc the script will get the needed files by cm.
If there is only an unofficial build of cm you can add the device like it is explained in the tutorial i posted.
so i think you are just hours / days away of your i9506 port of PAC.
if you've done everything correct you can be the maintainer of this rom, and then it will get official supported in nightlies ....

Souds good sounds good! Thanks once again

i just did a test run:
http://jenkins.pac-rom.com/job/volletest/device=ks01lte,label=volletest/71/console
so its not working out of the box and there seems to be no official supprt by cm yet.
you will have to add the device manually, for this the tutorial will help you.
have a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2590142, thats an unofficial port of cm that might help you.
i haven't done this yet so i cant help you anymore sorry... but is is possible and you'll learn something by doing it. you can drop a message in the g+ community, maybe some out there can give you a hand...

Thanks, you already help me a lot dude

[Q]How do I compile android from Epsylon's github?

I've prepared everything in Ubuntu and installed git but I don't know how to retrieve the files and build them. I'd really appreciate an answer. Thanks.
P.S. Please do not point me to the XDA TV guide because I've already seen that and have followed the first few steps to set up the building environment.
Bump. I'd really appreciate an answer.

Updating Custom ROMs

I am using Purity 4.4 + Matrix 11.5 right now.
Now my question is how do you guys update your respective ROMs instead of flashing newer versions through recovery? I tried GooManager but it didn't work for me :-|
You should ask in thread about your rom. If devs do not do OTA update you must use recovery to update rom
I think most use recovery
Sent from my Nexus 4
Download updated ROM zip file and flash through recovery (TWRP for myself).

Well being a new member, I am not actually allowed to ask in ROM threads, that's why I asked here.

not for Purity. You must update through custom recovery.

It's not hard but sometimes you get too lazy
Simple. Set up VM environment there are simple walkthrough video and once your set up you can pull straight out of the devs or any branch. I do my own when I feel I need to add a feature I do. There are a major variety of bases to choose from. Its much easier than many think. In my opinion its safer as I know exactly what I'm getting. Not to mention an addiction lay within too. Lol Have fun bro. Welcome to the machine. Many new devs are so stoked when the first ROM they build is complete they can't stop. Lol peace.

Hmmm...its either bad build or flashing the wrong version for you S4...you need to get in touch with the dev/maintainer of the rom and tell them your problem and make sure you download the right one since S4 has 4 different model....
Thanks for your reply. The thread below is the thread I used to follow, but it has since been locked. So who do we contact please?

They yet to release official PAC 4.4 cause they need to make sure that PAC 4.4 is stable enough for daily use...
I also believe that they are planning to release official PAC 4.4 on all supported devices in one day...

Nope, I recon things will change once the ROM release on server changes from pac_jfltexx-nightly-20140210 to something new.

Nope...there have stop building nightly build in order to prepare and push 4.4 into their server....so whatever nightly build in the server right now will probably the last build for v4.3.1....

Right, no more nightlies. So once the build on the server changes it's reasonable to assume PAC OTA update will work, and that 4.4 has been deployed, no?

[Q] ubuntu touch?

Does anyone know if its possible to get ubuntu touch working on the new bootloader? If i cant is there anyone who would help me port it ( im new to porting and building roms but willing to learn) ?
I couldn't even get the old one to boot... Every time I tried I had to rsd back and start over as restoring a back up failed... timpohladthomas is a good man he tried teaching me how to build there for a while till my olé lady got tired of me fooling with it you may be to see if he can toss a little advice your way if he's not busy

You (you may be able to but this was the advise given to me) can't build on windows duel boot your PC with Ubuntu read over this a few times... this tells you were to grab the files from...I barely scratched the surface of building I'm sorry I can't offer much help I wish I was allowed to tinker
