Replicant

Edit:

We have now a temporary git repository at gitorious:

http://gitorious.org/replicant

== Before starting ==

 * root your phone

 * Backup your current system!!!

== Setup the build system ==

Let's say that our build directory is ~/replicant

Check out the Dream Android repository :

{{{

 mkdir bin

 cd bin

 wget http://android.git.kernel.org/repo

 chmod a+x repo

 cd ..

 mkdir replicant

 cd replicant

 ../bin/repo init -u git://gitorious.org/replicant/manifest.git

 ../bin/repo sync

}}}

== Each time you want to build something ==

 * open a new console

 * Then type:

{{{

 cd ~/replicant

 export ANDROID_JAVA_HOME=$JAVA_HOME

 lunch htc_dream-eng

 make

}}}

 * The files to flash are in ~/replicant/out/target/product/dream,flash them and then clear the cache

 * boot and push the wifi firmware if you want it

== If you want to build a particular project ==

 * open a new console

 * build everything if it was not done before

 * Then type:

{{{

 cd ~/replicant

 source build/envsetup.sh

 export ANDROID_JAVA_HOME=$JAVA_HOME

 lunch htc_dream-eng

 #go into the directory containing an Android.mk

 mm

}}}

== Status ==

 * ril works more or less:

 * * calls should work(in/out)

 * * sms should work(in/out)

 * * hearphones not supported

 * sound works even with headphones(beware calls's sound don't work with headphones)
