AndroidOpenDevelopment is meant to be an AOSP/CAF base with hardware support for various OEM chipsets such as QCOM OMAP Tegra, etc, without any additional feature support.
It is hoped that various community ROMs will submit patches from upstream sources for basic hardware support eliminating the need for each ROM to do all the extra work, thereby bringing COMMUNITY back to android
Patches are always welcome! Please submit your patches via AndroidOpenDevelopment Gerrit! You can do this by using these commands:
(From root android directory)
. build/envsetup.sh
repo start lp .
(Make your changes and commit)
repo upload .
Note: "." meaning current directory For more help on using this tool, use this command: repo help upload
Make your changes and commit with a detailed message, starting with what you are working with (i.e. vision: Update Kernel) Commit your patches in a single commit. Squash multiple commit using this command: git rebase -i HEAD~<# of commits>
To view the status of your and others' patches, visit AndroidOpenDevelopment Code Review
