A set of debos recipes for building a debian-based image for mobile phones, specifically targetting msm8974 Phones.
The default user is mobian with password 1234.
To build the image, you need to have debos and bmaptool. On a debian-based
system, install these dependencies by typing the following command in a terminal:
sudo apt install debos bmap-tools android-sdk-libsparse-utils xz-utils f2fs-tools
Do note that the debos provided in Debian 10 (Buster) is not new enough (it will error out with "Unknown action: recipe"), the one in Debian Bullseye works. If you want to build with EXT4 filesystem f2fs-tools is not required.
The build system will cache and re-use it's output files. To create a fresh build
remove *.tar.gz, *.sqfs and *.img before starting the build.
If your system isn't debian-based (or if you choose to install debos without
using apt, which is a terrible idea), please make sure you also install the
following required packages:
debootstrapqemu-user-staticbinfmt-supportsquashfs-tools-ng(only required for generating installer images)
Then simply browse to the mobian-recipes folder and execute ./build.sh.
You can use ./build.sh -d to use the docker version of debos.
Connect your phone on fastboot mode into your computer, and type the following command:
fastboot flash boot <boot>
fastboot flash userdata <root>
Note: Make sure to use the actual image, not
<root> / <boot>.
CAUTION: This will format the device!!!
