OmniRoms Nougat. An elusive dream of mine is building OmniRoms for my devices. In the past I just couldn’t seem to get them to work. Well, I have decided to give it another go, and here was one of my first errors:
[CODE]
build/core/Makefile:34: *** Prebuilt apk found in PRODUCT_COPY_FILES: vendor/lge/g4-common/proprietary/priv-app/qcrilmsgtunnel/qcrilmsgtunnel.apk:system/priv-app/qcrilmsgtunnel/qcrilmsgtunnel.apk, use BUILD_PREBUILT instead!.
[/CODE]
So, I took a look at g4-common-vendor-blobs.mk:
[CODE]
vendor/lge/g4-common/proprietary/lib/libloc_ds_api.so:system/lib/libloc_ds_api.so \
vendor/lge/g4-common/proprietary/lib/libalhdri.so:system/lib/libalhdri.so \
vendor/lge/g4-common/proprietary/priv-app/qcrilmsgtunnel/qcrilmsgtunnel.apk:system/priv-app/qcrilmsgtunnel/qcrilmsgtunnel.apk \
vendor/lge/g4-common/proprietary/vendor/firmware/libpn547_fw_C9.so:system/vendor/firmware/libpn547_fw_C9.so \
vendor/lge/g4-common/proprietary/vendor/firmware/BCM4335_003.001.009.0117.0620_LGE_P1_EU.hcd:system/vendor/firmware/BCM43…..
[/CODE]
Here we can see that the file in question “qcrilmsgtunnel.apk” is being copied over with the vendor blobs. The error is telling us that we need to install it as a prebuilt app, instead of copying the app over as a normal file. So, I edited out that line in the g4-common-vendor-blobs.mk file, and edited g4-common-vendor.mk by adding it like so:
[CODE]
PRODUCT_PACKAGES += \
qcrilmsgtunnel \
qcnvitems \
qcrilhook
[/CODE]
Notice that I did not move the apk file around, just redefined how to get it moved into the rom. Well, that took care of that error! 1 down, untold dozens to go!
Linux – keep it simple.
