HOW-TO BUILD:

This short guide assumes you're on Ubuntu 10.10

Getting the (right) source

Ensure that you have repo installed. Download and install repo like so:

$ curl http://android.git.kernel.org/repo > ~/bin/repo

$ chmod a+x ~/bin/repo

Now, we create our build directories and pull the right source:

$ cd ~/android/system/

$ repo init -u git://github.com/yuri-wei-cn/android.git -b gingerbread

$ repo sync -j16

Extract necessary binaries and proprietary files

We will need to reuse some proprietary files. The best ROM to obtain these from is a build of CM7-C8600 (05012011 or later). The Tapout ROM can also be used:

$ cd

$ cd ~/android/system/device/huawei/c8600/

$ ./extract-files.sh

Building CM7

Once thats done you can start compiling.

Follow the aosp instructions on setting up the build environment. - http://source.android.com/source/download.html

When the environment is setup, we need to grab a copy of Koush's ROM Manager. This is necessary to build CM7.

$ cd

$ ~/android/system/vendor/cyanogen/get-rommanager

Now, we build:

$ cd ~/android/system

$ . build/envsetup.sh && brunch c8600

Installing CM7

If the build was successful, you can now take the update zip found in out/target/product/c8600/ and flash using a custom recovery. Make sure to grab the latest Gapps to complete the experience.
