Liquid JB 4.2 Rom Droid 4 XT894

Well I am not doing anything special here but syncing up the source and running a build. So if hashcode pushes the new commits anyone can run up a build. All of the omap4 devices are using the same kexec kernel.
 
If I knew how to run a build, I would. But my understanding of android development quickly tapers off when we start talking about making builds.

I have no idea how to 'sync up the source' and 'run a build'. Can you give me the very basics? I'd love to learn and experiment. :)

Try reading this: COMPILE From Source For Any Phone On Linux Distros [BUILD ENVIRONMENT TO COMPILE] - xda-developers I suggest that you dual boot windows or if you have/buy a second harddrive then make one for linux. Using a vm is just too slow. Do 64 bit install only and when you get to part two don't load the cm repo but use liquid from here: https://github.com/LiquidSmooth/android and you need the local add on mainfest from here: https://github.com/LiquidSmooth/android_device_motorola_omap4-common/blob/jb2/kernel_manifest.xml
 
Hash made those changes overnight. Before I ran the build this morning.

is rotation working for anyone? I've tried both Liquid-JB-v2.3.1-OFFICIAL-maserati.zip from jsnweitzel and Liquid-JB-NIGHTLY-May-08-2013-03.11.42-Maserati.zip, and neither one gives me working rotation on my droid 4...
 
I'm using the latest build by Jsnweitzel. Rotation does work after turning auto- rotate back on

interesting. doesn't work for me. tried wiping the slot and re-installing. tried turning auto-rotate off and on. are you using the nova launcher? my phone says kernel version

3.0.8-g38569e4 jsnweitzel@jsnweitzel-NY428AA-ABA-p6110f #2

Build number

liquid_maserati-userdebug 4.2.2 JDQ39E eng.jsnweitzel.20130506.070547 test-keys

is that what you're running?
 
Same build as yours, and I am also running Nova launcher. Nova doesn't rotate, and I assumed it was some setting that needed modified but I didn't look too hard as I don't intend to have a rotating launcher, but I went into my messaging app and sure enough got it into landscape mode without opening the keyboard.

Hah! that was it. nova wasn't set to auto-rotate by default. that can be changed in 'nova settings', 'look and feel'. and auto-rotate has to be on in the phone settings, too. thanks!
