Build Replicant 6.0

This page explains how to build Replicant 6.0 for supported devices.

Prerequisites

Before building, you must make sure that:

Warning

Do not build as root, always build as user.

See the build tips if you are facing issues.

Before building

  • On Debian stretch, building the toolchain will fail. See Replicant60BuildTips for how to workaround that and make the build succeed.

Building

All of the following build commands need to be run in the source tree root folder.

Building the toolchain

First, the toolchain needs to be built for replicant 6. To do that open a new shell and run the following command:

./vendor/replicant/build-toolchain

Building a Replicant image for a device

Once the toolchain has been built, we can now open a new shell and prepare it for building a Replicant image for a device. To prepare the current shell, run the following command:

. build/envsetup.sh

You will then need select the device you want to build for.

To do that, you can use the following table to find the command you need to type to select the device you want to build for:

Command Device(s)
lunch replicant_i9100-userdebug Galaxy S 2 (I9100)
lunch replicant_i9300-userdebug Galaxy S 3 (I9300)
lunch replicant_i9305-userdebug Galaxy S 3 4G (I9305)
lunch replicant_n7000-userdebug Galaxy Note (N7000)
lunch replicant_n7100-userdebug Galaxy Note 2 (N7100)
lunch replicant_maguro-userdebug Galaxy Nexus (I9250)
lunch replicant_espresso3g-userdebug Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 (P3100)
Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (P5100)
lunch replicant_espressowifi-userdebug Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 Wi-Fi (P3110)
Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 Wi-Fi (P5110)
lunch replicant_n5100-userdebug Galaxy Note 8.0 (N5100)
lunch replicant_n5110-userdebug Galaxy Note 8.0 Wi-Fi (N5110)

For instance to build for the Galaxy S3 (I9300) you need to type the following command:

lunch replicant_i9300-userdebug

When this is done you can start the build:

parallel_tasks=$(echo "$(grep 'processor' /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l ) + 1" | bc)
make -j$parallel_tasks bacon

The -jn argument indicates the number of parallel tasks during the build. You can remove it from the command line to have only one task at a time.
$parallel_tasks holds an optimized number of parallel tasks for your hardware. You may want to reduce this number if e.g. the computer runs out of RAM during the build.

Finally, you will need to sign the resulting images for replicant 6.

To do that, you can use the following table to find the command you need to type sign the images for the device you are building for:

Command Device(s)
./vendor/replicant/sign-build i9100 Galaxy S 2 (I9100)
./vendor/replicant/sign-build i9300 Galaxy S 3 (I9300)
./vendor/replicant/sign-build i9305 Galaxy S 3 4G (I9305)
./vendor/replicant/sign-build n7000 Galaxy Note (N7000)
./vendor/replicant/sign-build n7100 Galaxy Note 2 (N7100)
./vendor/replicant/sign-build maguro Galaxy Nexus (I9250)
./vendor/replicant/sign-build espresso3g Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 (P3100)
Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (P5100)
./vendor/replicant/sign-build espressowifi Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 Wi-Fi (P3110)
Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 Wi-Fi (P5110)
./vendor/replicant/sign-build n5100 Galaxy Note 8.0 (N5100)
./vendor/replicant/sign-build n5110 Galaxy Note 8.0 Wi-Fi (N5110)

For instance for the Galaxy S 3 (I9300) you need to type the following command:

./vendor/replicant/sign-build i9300

The first time you run the script, it will ask you a few questions that are needed to generate the necessary signing keys.

Output files

For the built host tools, the produced files are at: out/host/linux-x86/bin/

For the built target images, you can use the following table to find the directory that has the produced files:

Output directory Device(s)
out/dist/i9100/ Galaxy S 2 (I9100)
out/dist/i9300/ Galaxy S 3 (I9300)
out/dist/i9305/ Galaxy S 3 4G (I9305)
out/dist/n7000/ Galaxy Note (N7000)
out/dist/n7100/ Galaxy Note 2 (N7100)
out/dist/maguro/ Galaxy Nexus (I9250)
out/dist/espresso3g/ Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 (P3100)
Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (P5100)
out/dist/espressowifi/ Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 Wi-Fi (P3110)
Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 Wi-Fi (P5110)
out/dist/n5100/ Galaxy Note 8.0 (N5100)
out/dist/n5110/ Galaxy Note 8.0 Wi-Fi (N5110)

For instance, for the Galaxy S 3 (I9300), the built target images are in out/dist/i9300/
