@harvey186 thank you for your support. I also have a samsung A5 (2016) not supported that i wish to install /e/ to.
@Anonyme thank you for these links. I’ve read them. I understand how to prepare the toolchain to build /e/ (well i think i understand)… the resource i’m looking for, is what code and where in that code i should modify something to target my “special” note 4. If i pass branch v0.2 and ‘treltexx’ device to the building script, it will prepare a version of /e/ for note 4 with exynos (not for snapdragon). So i’d like to know where to change the target platform in building tools and there is probably code in /e/ to add or modify to target snapdragon, no?
I think we are an good way to build for unsupported devices. One user has a successful finished build and my is running at the moment. I hope it will also finish successful. If yes, we will publish the way / how to
By the way, i’ve tried to build /e/ for note4 trltexx and it did not work. I believe it’s because i’ve tried oreo and i should have tried nougat. A new build is running
Here are the error logs from yesterday:
build/core/product_config.mk:238: *** Can not locate config makefile for product “lineage_trltexx”. Stop.
and one hint: I prefer building first for a supported device to check if your setup is working well.
And if there is a supported device which is similar to yours. try this first.
For example: my oxygen is very similar to mido and tissot. So I first build for tissot. When build works fine, I try building for my oxygen
I agree with @harvey186’s suggestion.Building for a supported device first gives you the confidence that your build works and secondly if there are errors there would be help available on the net to fix it. This makes the second build on the unsupported device relatively ‘easier’ .
Thanks for the advice. I’m gonna try that tonight. I’ll try for trletexx.
Last night the process failed because there was not enough space on drive… my v1-oreo try and the v1-nougat take more than 150GB. I have to extend disk.
Hello, anything new? I’m interested in this topic because I have the same mobile and would like to have /e/ as my operating system. Regards and thanks.
