Resolved compiling issues
ANDROID_MAJOR_VERSION
Solved with a patch from another Samsung device.
"(vendor file) not found"
I got help from a user on XDA Forums by typing this in the APKBUILD on top of the make command:
objcopy -I binary -O ihex firmware/exynos7885_acpm_fvp.fw firmware/exynos7885_acpm_fvp.fw.ihex
There are no seperate lines, just spaces. |
Things needed to run this faster
Vendor kernel
Files for it are important but I can't understand which are for the vendor kernel and which are for the normal kernel.
