前面多篇文章介绍到如何下载和编译Android或者CM源码，不过一直都是放在《拓展系列》里。
随着学习的深入，android源码是非常有参考和学习价值，强烈推荐大家都去下载，编译，学习，所以把它提到《学习系列》专讲一章基础篇。
刚装了UBUNTU14.04，所以尝试在新环境下编译一下android源码。
因为和谐原因，我临时买了个VPN，推荐一下（还算稳定）：Http://a.wy002.com/34750 或者云梯
1、参考链接（官方）：
环境：http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html
下载：http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html
编译：http://source.android.com/source/building-running.html
2、Ubuntu14.04(x64)+ OpenJDK7
最新的代码用默认的openjdk7就可以编译通过，反而用jdk6无法编译。
安装openjdk7：
$ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jdk $ sudo update-alternatives --config java $ sudo update-alternatives --config javac
安装其他组件：
$ sudo apt-get install git gnupg flex bison gperf build-essential \ zip curl libc6-dev libncurses5-dev:i386 x11proto-core-dev \ libx11-dev:i386 libreadline6-dev:i386 libgl1-mesa-glx:i386 \ libgl1-mesa-dev g++-multilib mingw32 tofrodos \ Python-markdown libxml2-utils xsltproc zlib1g-dev:i386 $ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/mesa/libGL.so.1 /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libGL.so
我这里安装很快(我配置了163的mirror)，一切顺利。
3、连上VPN
直接参考这个VPN官方说明：
https://www.51jsq.org/setting/ubuntu.shtml
4、安装repo
$ mkdir ~/bin $ PATH=~/bin:$PATH $ curl http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo > ~/bin/repo $ chmod a+x ~/bin/repo
为了方便，你可以继续配置一下repo：
在.Bashrc中添加：
alias repo='~/bin/repo'
5、开始下载
$ mkdir android $ cd android $ repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest //下载最新
上面是初始化（init）repo版本库，真正的下载：
$ repo sync
也许是我命好，FQ之后，下载一切顺利，没有以前碰到的和网上说的的一大堆问题，唯一的一个尴尬的问题，下载的过程中经常断。
早上醒来的时候断了，继续repo sync，下班回来一看，断了，repo sync ...
大概断断续续的花了2天2夜在今天晚上加班回来下载好了。
提醒一下，如果你下载出错了，请务必仔细看看是什么错误，不是一味的repo sync,我这次这么顺利简直“不科学”～
下载好了！！！！
6、开始编译
初始化一些参数和变量：
$ source build/envsetup.sh
定义设备类型，我们使用模拟器（aosp_arm-eng）：
/*

定义好了后，开始编译（是最新的4.4.3的版本）：

编译完成。
7、运行模拟器
在前面 souce build/envsetup.sh中已经添加emulator命令了：
$ emulator
就能跑起一个模拟器了：
8、修改和编译系统应用代码
我们修改一下系统应用Mms的标题：
使用mm命令编译：
/* xxx@ubuntu:~/Data/android/packages/apps/Mms$ mm ============================================ PLATFORM_VERSION_CODENAME=REL PLATFORM_VERSION=4.4.3.2.1.000.000 TARGET_PRODUCT=aosp_arm TARGET_BUILD_VARIANT=eng TARGET_BUILD_TYPE=release TARGET_BUILD_APPS= TARGET_ARCH=arm TARGET_2ND_ARCH= TARGET_ARCH_VARIANT=armv7-a TARGET_CPU_VARIANT=generic HOST_ARCH=x86 HOST_OS=linux HOST_OS_EXTRA=Linux-3.13.0-24-generic-x86_64-with-Ubuntu-14.04-trusty HOST_BUILD_TYPE=release BUILD_ID=OPENMASTER OUT_DIR=out ============================================ make:进入目录'/home/xxx/Data/android' target R.java/Manifest.java: Mms (out/target/common/obj/APPS/Mms_intermediates/src/R.stamp) warning: string 'menu_insert_smiley' has no default translation. target Java: Mms (out/target/common/obj/APPS/Mms_intermediates/classes) 注: 某些输入文件使用或覆盖了已过时的 API。 注: 有关详细信息, 请使用 -Xlint:deprecation 重新编译。 注: 某些输入文件使用了未经检查或不安全的操作。 注: 有关详细信息, 请使用 -Xlint:unchecked 重新编译。 Copying: out/target/common/obj/APPS/Mms_intermediates/classes-jarjar.jar Copying: out/target/common/obj/APPS/Mms_intermediates/emma_out/lib/classes-jarjar.jar Copying: out/target/common/obj/APPS/Mms_intermediates/classes.jar Proguard: out/target/common/obj/APPS/Mms_intermediates/proguard.classes.jar ProGuard, version 4.10 Reading program jar [/home/xxx/Data/android/out/target/common/obj/APPS/Mms_intermediates/classes.jar] // ... ... target Dex: Mms Copying: out/target/common/obj/APPS/Mms_intermediates/classes.dex target Package: Mms (out/target/product/generic/obj/APPS/Mms_intermediates/package.apk) nothing matches overlay file ic_contact_picture.png, for flavor ,,,,,,,,,,,,mdpi,,,,,,, libpng warning: iCCP: known incorrect sRGB profile libpng warning: iCCP: known incorrect sRGB profile warning: string 'menu_insert_smiley' has no default translation. warning: string 'menu_insert_smiley' is missing 19 required localizations: az_AZ en_AU en_CA en_GB en_IN en_NZ en_SG en_US eo_EU hy_AM ka_GE km_KH lo_LA mn_MN ne_NP si_LK zh_CN zh_HK zh_TW dex2oatd I 21424 21424 art/dex2oat/dex2oat.cc:1082] dex2oat: out/host/linux-x86/bin/dex2oatd --runtime-arg -Xms64m --runtime-arg -Xmx64m --boot-image=out/target/product/generic/dex_bootjars/system/framework/boot.art --dex-file=out/target/product/generic/obj/APPS/Mms_intermediates/package.apk --dex-location=/system/priv-app/Mms.apk --oat-file=out/target/product/generic/obj/APPS/Mms_intermediates/package.odex --android-root=out/target/product/generic/system --instruction-set=arm --instruction-set-features=default dex2oatd I 21424 21424 art/dex2oat/dex2oat.cc:252] dex2oat took 1.189425041s (threads: 8) Notice file: packages/apps/Mms/NOTICE -- out/target/product/generic/obj/NOTICE_FILES/src//system/priv-app/Mms.apk.txt Install: out/target/product/generic/system/priv-app/Mms.apk Install: out/target/product/generic/system/priv-app/Mms.odex // ... ... Install: out/target/product/generic/data/app/MmsTests.apk Install: out/target/product/generic/data/app/MmsTests.odex make:离开目录“/home/xxx/Data/android” */
主要是生成了两个文件：
out/target/product/generic/system/priv-app/Mms.apk
out/target/product/generic/system/priv-app/Mms.odex
9、安装到手机
因为是系统应用，为了重启有效，使用push命令把两个文件push到模拟器中对应的位置：
// 注意现在一些核心的应用的位置由以前的system/app调整为了system/priv-app，不要push错了 /* xxx@ubuntu:~/Data/android$ adb push out/target/product/generic/system/priv-app/Mms.odex system/priv-app 2893 KB/s (2085348 bytes in 0.703s) xxx@ubuntu:~/Data/android$ adb push out/target/product/generic/system/priv-app/Mms.apk system/priv-app 3315 KB/s (1785258 bytes in 0.525s) */
看下模拟器效果：
标题被替换了。
类似了，你可以修改framework，替换内核，不过有些需要重启模拟器，有些需要重新编译相关的所以模块，这里只是简单的介绍，以后有机会再细说。
10、小结
有了源码，可以学习优秀的代码，可以从历史提交看看它们是如何改进的，可以定制自己的系统样式，可以做的事情很多...
