LiquidSmooth Source

To get started with LiquidSmooth, you'll need to get familiar with Git and Repo.

Create the Directories

You will need to set up some directories in your build environment.

To create them run:

mkdir -p ~/bin
mkdir -p ~/liquid

Install the Repository

Enter the following to download the "repo" binary:

curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo

chmod a+x ~/bin/repo

You may need to reboot for these changes to take effect. Now enter the following to initialize the repository:

cd ~/liquid

Repositories:

Before you continue --> run this in the terminal

repo init -u git://github.com/LiquidSmooth/android.git -b lp5.1

repo sync

Building the System

Build LiquidSmooth with the following command

./build-liquid.sh {options} {device}

Use the following as options...

Options:
-c# Cleanin options before build:
        c1 - make liquid
        c2 - make clean
        c3 - make dirty
        c4 - make magic
        c5 - make kernelclean
-d  Use dex optimizations
-i  Static Initlogo
-j# Set jobs

-p  Build using pipe
-o# Select GCC O Level
