so i have been trying to play around with setting up a development box for just playing around wiht the source for this phone. I googled it and found this guide --> Howto: Compile Your Own Kernel V. 0.1 - Thunderbolt Development - RootzWiki i get this i terminal when i run the first command listed Code (Text): mattholly@mattholly-EL1352G:~$ sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential zip curl zlib1g-dev libc6-dev g++-multilib lib32ncurses5-dev ia32-libs x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev lib32readline-gplv2-dev lib32z-dev libgl1-mesa-dev git Reading package lists...

The above should be all you need for most things besides the toolchain.

In the root of the kernel source go to the make file and look for this line CROSS_COMPILE ?= arm-eabi- Change the after = to point to your toolchain. Keep in mind to use 4.4.3
every time i point it to my toolchain directory i get the same error might be the tool chain im using? im using the ndkr8 now. was using r5
I haven't a clue what toolchain you are using. I have used two from sorcery I think that is spelled close enough to the official one in aosp. So based of what you posted I am not sure what toolchain that is. I assume it may be something with sdk though but your issue is likely how you are pointing to the toolchain. Paste what you put in the makefile otherwise I will be playing guessing games. As I can only help you if you want to help yourself, in turn posting more details.
Ya sorry about being so short with info. I'm tryin to help my self out but I'm hitting a brick wall with this. When I get out of work ill look into it more. Thank you guys for all your input.
You understood me wrong, I wasn't saying it like that. But if you want help you need to help yourself and supply more info. Things can be done different from person to person. Where I have no idea what you may be doing. Rest assured it will work though as I have been building it fine.
ya thanks i got it working. Now i just need to figure thinks out. I tried to enable all governors but when it went to build it gave me errors. Im sure i need to do more than just put Y in the menuconfig. Also just wondering how to apply patches?
You got the error? All the governors should be in the source I put in so there should be no issue building them. As for the patches there is a few different ways. It depends on if you want to keep the commit or not.
