Put parts togheter

Now you need to put all the parts for your device togheter, and since our tree is based on Cyanogenmod you can use the device files they provide.

Parts that is needed:

• device
• vendor
• kernel

You may check the "cm.dependencies" that is included in every cyanogenmod device repo.

Build

Initialize

Choose you target

Now we need to choose the target to build using the lunch command;

The output of this command will look something like this:

Here you need to choose your device cm[your device]-userdebug, example if you were to build the oneplus one you would choose cm_bacon-eng or 7

Building your device

Here comes the fun part, building the device it self using the command make

for building faster, you can use the -j[n] option for doing parallel operations. it's common to use a number of tasks N that's between 1 and 2 times the number of hardware threads on the computer being used for the build.
