How to connect debug serial cable

  • WARNING : WATCH CABLE DIRECTION !!!!!

5420 serial con.png

Host Environment for Android

First of all, there is a need host PC to build android. The host PC recommended installed linux or mac os.

  • We recommend that you use Ubuntu Linux. Ubuntu 10.10 will use to explain about the below.
  • Build environments tested various platform of ubuntu distributions. But as we mentioned, we recommended ubuntu 10.10 because it is the best solution until now.
  • To build ICS(IceCream Sandwitch) or higher version, You must install based on 64bit host system.

Installing required packages (Ubuntu 10.04 -- 11.10)

You will need a 64-bit version of Ubuntu. Ubuntu 10.04 is recommended. Building using a newer version of Ubuntu is currently only experimentally supported and is not guaranteed to work on branches other than master.

$ sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential \
  zip curl zlib1g-dev libc6-dev lib32ncurses5-dev ia32-libs \
 x11proto-core-dev libx11-dev lib32readline5-dev lib32z-dev \
 libgl1-mesa-dev g++-multilib mingw32 tofrodos python-markdown \
 libxml2-utils xsltproc 

On Ubuntu 10.10

$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib32/mesa/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib32/mesa/libGL.     

On Ubuntu 11.10

$ sudo apt-get install libx11-dev:i386

Installing required packages (Ubuntu 12.04)

Building on Ubuntu 12.04 is currently only experimentally supported and is not guaranteed to work on branches other than master.

sudo apt-get install git-core gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential \
  zip curl libc6-dev libncurses5-dev:i386 x11proto-core-dev \
  libx11-dev:i386 libreadline6-dev:i386 libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 \
  libgl1-mesa-dev g++-multilib mingw32 openjdk-6-jdk tofrodos \
  python-markdown libxml2-utils xsltproc zlib1g-dev:i386
$ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libGL.so

Configuring USB Access

Under GNU/linux systems (and specifically under Ubuntu systems), regular users can't directly access USB devices by default. The system needs to be configured to allow such access.

The recommended approach is to create a file /etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules (as the root user) and to copy the following lines in it. must be replaced by the actual username of the user who is authorized to access the phones over USB.

# adb protocol on passion (Nexus One)

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTR{idVendor}=="18d1", ATTR{idProduct}=="4e40", MODE="0600", OWNER=""

Those new rules take effect the next time a device is plugged in. It might therefore be necessary to unplug the device and plug it back into the computer.

  • After you modify, the udev rules will be activated with restarting Host PC or "sudo udevadm control --reload-rules" command.

Environment for Bootloader/Kernel Build

  • Download toolchain GCC Version 4.4.3 (arm-eabi-4.4.3) from Developers Forum of Insignal
  • Unzip the downloaded toolchain into /your/own/directory/ (ex> /usr/local/arm-eabi-4.4.3)
  • Set the toolchain path up to your PATH environment like 'export PATH=$PATH:/your/own/directory'(ex> export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin)

Installing the JDK

Installing Java6

Please download from Oracle web site and select JDK(Java SE 6 Update 3X).

Download 64bit type

  • Download "Linux x64 (64bit)" jdk6u3X-linux-x64.bin

Run "jdk6u3X-linux-x64.bin" in download folder

$ cd ~/download
$ chmod +x jdk-6u3X-linux-x64.bin
$ ./jdk-6u3X-linux-x64.bin

Move to ~'/apps/'

$ mkdir -p ~/apps
$ mv jdk1.6.0_3X ~/apps/

How to Download Source Tree

Installing Repo

Repo is a tool that makes it easier to work with Git in the context of Android. For more information about Repo, see Version Control.

To install, initialize, and configure Repo, follow these steps:

  • Make sure you have a bin/ directory in your home directory, and that it is included in your path:
$ mkdir ~/bin
$ PATH=~/bin:$PATH
  • Download the Repo script and ensure it is executable:
$ curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo
$ chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
  • For version 1.17, the SHA-1 checksum for repo is ddd79b6d5a7807e911b524cb223bc3544b661c28

Initializing a Repo client

After installing Repo, set up your client to access the android source repository:

  • Create an empty directory to hold your working files. If you're using MacOS, this has to be on a case-sensitive filesystem. Give it any name you like:
$ mkdir WORKING_DIRECTORY
$ cd WORKING_DIRECTORY
  • Run repo init to bring down the latest version of Repo with all its most recent bug fixes. You must specify a URL for the manifest, which specifies where the various repositories included in the Android source will be placed within your working directory.
$ repo init -u git://git.insignal.co.kr/insignal/arndale_octa-jb_mr1.1/android/manifest -b jb-mr1.1
  • To check out a branch other than "jb-mr1.1", specify it with -b:

A successful initialization will end with a message stating that Repo is initialized in your working directory. Your client directory should now contain a .repo directory where files such as the manifest will be kept.

Getting the files

To pull down files to your working directory from the repositories as specified in the default manifest, run

$ repo sync

The Android source files will be located in your working directory under their project names. The initial sync operation will take an hour or more to complete. For more about repo sync and other Repo commands, see Version Control.

Download proprietary for Eyxnos5420

Download proprietary -->>archive, vendor_samsung_slsi_exynos5420_jb-mr1.1_20131030_xxxxxx.run to root of android source tree.

Make it executable and run it:

$ chmod +x vendor_samsung_slsi_exynos5420_jb-mr1.1_20131030_xxxxxx.run
$ ./vendor_samsung_slsi_exynos5420_jb-mr1.1_20131030_xxxxxx.run

Download proprietary archive for other peripherals, vendor_insignal_arndale_octa_exynos5420_jb-mr1.1_20131205_xxxxxx.run to root of android source tree.

$ chmod +x vendor_insignal_arndale_octa_exynos5420_jb-mr1.1_20131205_xxxxxx
$ ./vendor_insignal_arndale_octa_exynos5420_jb-mr1.1_20131205_xxxxxx.run

It show license of it's contents. After agree it by typing "I ACCEPT", proprietary files will be extracted under vendor/insignal/arndale_octa/exynos5420/

Building the System

The basic sequence of build commands is as follows:

Initialize

  • Initialize the environment with the envsetup.sh script. Note that replacing "source" with a single dot saves a few characters, and the short form is more commonly used in documentation.
$ source ./arndale_octa_envsetup.sh

or

$ . ./arndale_octa_envsetup.sh
  • Environment initialization is complete, the following message appears.
including device/generic/armv7-a-neon/vendorsetup.sh
including device/generic/armv7-a/vendorsetup.sh
including device/generic/mips/vendorsetup.sh
including device/generic/x86/vendorsetup.sh

- fastboot_fmt_sd:    Erase SDCard via fastboot
- kernel_make:        Make kernel
- mkgrep:             Grep *.mk like jgrep

How to change the BUILD_VARIANT and BUILD_TYPE

  • Change the TARGET_BUILD_VARIANT, do the following:
$ choosevariant

the following message appears.

Variant choices are:
     1. user
     2. userdebug
     3. eng
Which would you like? [eng]
  • Change the TARGET_BUILD_TYPE do the following:
$ choosetype

the following message appears.

Build type choices are:
     1. release
     2. debug
Which would you like? [1]

Using ccache

ccache is a compiler cache for C and C++ that can help make builds faster. In the root of the source tree, do the following:

$ export USE_CCACHE=1
$ export CCACHE_DIR=//.ccache
$ prebuilts/misc/linux-x86/ccache/ccache -M 20G

You can watch ccache being used by doing the following:

$ watch -n1 -d prebuilts/misc/linux-x86/ccache/ccache -s

On OSX, you should replace linux-x86 with darwin-x86.

Build the Code

Build everything with make. GNU make can handle parallel tasks with a -jN argument, and it's common to use a number of tasks N that's between 1 and 2 times the number of hardware threads on the computer being used for the build. E.g. on a dual-E5520 machine (2 CPUs, 4 cores per CPU, 2 threads per core), the fastest builds are made with commands between make -j16 and make -j32.

Building the Bootloader

You should be use following cross-compiler to build the boot loader.

$ cd < WORKING_DIRECTORY>/u-boot/
$ make clobber
$ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=< TOOLCHAIN_DIRECTORY >/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin/arm-eabi- arndale_octa_config
$ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=< TOOLCHAIN_DIRECTORY >/arm-eabi-4.4.3/bin/arm-eabi- 

After the build, < WORKING_DIRECTORY>/uboot.bin is being made available. And < WORKING_DIRECTORY>/spl/smdk5420-spl.bin is being made available.

Building the Kernel

Setting up Arndale Board¡¯s configuration. and after build.

$ kernel_make distclean
$ kernel_make arndale_octa_android_defconfig
$ kernel_make -j8

If you want to use the kernel menuconfig, type the following command.

$ kernel_make arndale_octa_android_defconfig
$ kernel_make menuconfig

Building the Android

  • Before building Android, you must build Kernel. Otherwise, you can cause unexpected building problems.
$ make kernel-binaries
$ make -j8

Please run 'make kernel-binaries' without -j option

Building fastboot and adb

If you don't already have those tools, fastboot and adb can be built with the regular build system. Follow the instructions on the page about building, and replace the main make command with

$ make fastboot adb

Build code for SD/MMC boot

device/samsung/arndale_octa/BoardConfig.mk
* change BOARD_USES_SDMMC_BOOT set to true. (default value is false)
