Building your own ICS 4.0.4 for Dell Inspiron DUO(Inspiron 1090) ONLY

[Gerhard Smith]

The following is for Ubuntu and it assumes that you have followed Chih-Wey's instructions on setting up the build environment (pre-requisites)


Set up the build environment as described http://source.android.com/source/download.html

You need about 25GB of free disk space.

Once the build environment has been set up:
1. Create a directory where you want to do the build (buildir)
                            mkdir ics-x86
2. cd <builddir>
                            cd ics-x86
3. Initialise repo:
                            repo init -u http://git.android-x86.org/manifest -b ics-x86
4. Get the projects:
                           repo sync
You might have to do this several times if you have a bad broadband connection. Keep doing it until it completes successfully.
5. Download the patch files(in a tar ball).
6. Extract the tarball. This should put all the patched files in the correct directories if you are in the root of your build directory(ics-x86)
                          tar -xvf ics-x86-DellDuo-patches.tar
7. Compile the iso:                 
                          make -j4 iso_img TARGET_PRODUCT=duo
You can leave the -j4 off if you only have one CPU or set it to your number of CPUs.
8. Go watch a movie or football match or have several beers.

To create a bootable USB:
1. Get unetbootin from ubuntu repository:
                        sudo apt-get install unetbootin
2. Run unetbootin
3. Select the USB stick where you want ics-x86 installed(at bottom)
4. Select the duo.iso in out/target/product/duo(next to Diskimage)
5. Click OK
6. Click Exit when it has finished.

When booting make sure that the USB is the first boot device in your BIOS setup.

Enjoy!

I know this is an old thread/post,... But would these Dell Duo patches work on a more recent version of Android (4.4, 5.0, 6.0)???
