[b2g] can we build Firefox os on lollipop base ?
I saw on the building page only upto android KitKat is supported to build Firefox but I found some phones on githib b2g repo using lollipop base. Can we use lollipop base for building Firefox os. I am currently building it for my phone redmi 1s @https://GitHub.com/b2g-armani I forked the device repos from unoffocial cm 12.1 repos of our phone. ___ dev-b2g mailing list dev-b2g@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-b2g
Re: [b2g] can we build Firefox os on lollipop base ?
You can use whatever base you want to when you're doing your own porting. :) Having said that, we are trying to migrate over to lollipop. So far the only port that has been successful is the nexus 5 and there has been testing done on the nexus 5 lollipop base. If you want to look at a lollipop firefox os base, I would suggest looking at that repo. We are currently working on porting flame over to lollipop.

But why I am getting repo fetch errors when included base-kk-aosp.xml. can you pls check the armani.xml in manifest repo of my project and suggest. ___ dev-b2g mailing list dev-b2g@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-b2g
Re: [b2g] can we build Firefox os on lollipop base ?
Are you trying to go to lollipop? If you're trying to migrate your own device to lollipop, I wouldn't suggest including base-kk-aosp.xml. That's for kitkat. Perhaps you may want to take a look at the b2g-manifests and mimic from there : https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/b2g-manifest I believe you should be using either : base-l-aosp.xml or base-l.xml if you want to switch to lollipop. Take a look at the nexus-5-l as an example: https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/b2g-manifest/blob/master/nexus-5-l.xml Regards, Naoki On May 21, 2015, at 7:03 AM, Sai Karthik wrote: > But why I am getting repo fetch errors when included base-kk-aosp.xml. can > you pls check the armani.xml in manifest repo of my project and suggest. > ___ > dev-b2g mailing list > dev-b2g@lists.mozilla.org > https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-b2g ___ dev-b2g mailing list dev-b2g@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-b2g
Re: [b2g] can we build Firefox os on lollipop base ?
I should also mention, do you have the base for having lollipop android for redmi 1s ? If not, then I think that may block you from going to lollipop, because I think you may need to pull the blobs from the android version. If you don't have the base for lollipop android on the device, I think you would have to stick with kk? Also to note I think you may have to pull the blobs from the android version. I would recommend backing up your android version before you do any of flashing. Regards, Naoki On May 21, 2015, at 7:15 AM, Naoki Hirata wrote: > Are you trying to go to lollipop?

Re: [b2g] can we build Firefox os on lollipop base ?
As far as I know, it's being worked on at T2M/taipei office. All I know, from the people that are working on it, is that it's not usable yet. I hadn't dug further into it as there's a lot on my plate and I was going to ask more when I had a little more bandwidth. I am not sure the ETA at this point in time.

What do you mean by base ? Since unofficial cm 12.1 dev is active for my phone @ https://GitHub.com/armani-dev Base means the device tree ? Or kernel ? ___ dev-b2g mailing list dev-b2g@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-b2g

What do you mean by base ? My device has unofficial cm 12.1 dev at https://github.com/armani-dev You are talking about device config ? ___ dev-b2g mailing list dev-b2g@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-b2g
Re: [b2g] can we build Firefox os on lollipop base ?
Kernel/drivers/libraries/configs… Nexus is different because google has licenses and such to distribute their stuff so we pull their stuff from their repo, if I recall correctly. There's a few other devices that are treated differently. For most other devices, we pull files from a base build (fxos or android), since we don't have the license to distribute nor have it open. For example for the flame: https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/device-flame You can see the https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/device-flame/blob/master/extract-files.sh That's the files that gets pulled the first time you try to build. [ Note: this is also why we can't distribute a full build, we can only distribute the gecko/gaia levels ] Regards, Naoki On May 21, 2015, at 1:38 PM, Sai Karthik wrote: > What do you mean by base ? > > Since unofficial cm 12.1 dev is active for my phone @ > https://GitHub.com/armani-dev > > Base means the device tree ?
