I would like to build for a couple devices I currently own. ( iconia A500, G2X, vibrant, SGS4G, Thrive, and MB300 ) I was wondering if anyone would be interested in helping me out. I have compiled from source for a couple existing devices but I would like to learn how to build for unsupported devices ( CM7 and AOSP ) Also I am interested in building kernels. I am not looking for anyone to hold my hand through the process but do need to be pointed to quality learning materials and someone how can answer questions for me. I learn very quickly and have a pretty good base. Thank you in advance.
SGS4G: krylon is working on currently you can talk to him on twitter @krylon360
its still not working so its sort of an unsupported device.
MB300: is already supported in cm7 and is built just like cliq, so anything you know on cliq will be the same (Cliq, Cliq XT, and backflip were all identical)
For kernels i use this :)
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Building_Kernel_from_source
its a basic overview on how to build a kernel in general, changes with device but its pretty spot on for most.
try spliting the boot and use a froyo kernel and put it with a gingerbread ramdisk-folder and there you go. gingerbread boot.img.
