Editing Building Replicant 6.0 on the N7100

For some reason, replicant 6.0 on the Galaxy Note II (GT-N7100) is not documented anywhere for the phone and there are many build issues that are encountered before compiling. 

==Installing Debian Stretch==
Starting with replicant 6.0 Debian Stretch is a build requirement. Fortunately, you can just install a Debian chroot and compile from there.

There's a good guide for how to do this on Wolfgang Wiedmeyer's blog: https://blog.fossencdi.org/debian-stretch-debootstrap-replicant.html


==Downloading the replicant source code==
Before you download the sources to any android build, it is always important to remember that you'll need to have a ton of free space, '''60-70gb''' is the '''minimum'''. 

===Installing the repo tool===
The repo tool here comes from Google and is required to sync replicant sources to your system.

 wget https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/git-repo-downloads/repo
 chmod a+x repo
 cd ../

===Downloading the sources===
If you're using repo for the first time, you will need to put basic information down about yourself. Downloading sources may take a long time, depending on your network speed. 

 mkdir replicant-6.0
 cd replicant-6.0
 ../repo init -u https://code.fossencdi.org/replicant_manifest.git -b replicant-6.0
 ../repo sync

===Building toolchain and adding fdroid===
Building the toolchain may also take a while.

 ./vendor/replicant/get-prebuilts
 ./vendor/replicant/build-toolchain

===Adding device specific changes===
There is a strange issue with the git repository for device_samsung_n7100 that prevents repo from downloading it, the work around is just to download the device specific code to the build location manually. 
 
 cd device/samsung/
 wget https://git.replicant.us/replicant/device_samsung_n7100/repository/archive.tar.gz?ref=replicant-6.0
 tar -xvf device_samsung_n7100-replicant-6.0-a1ae70bdae481f5a09f527b8e49995677132b357.tar.gz
 mv device_samsung_n7100-replicant-6.0-a1ae70bdae481f5a09f527b8e49995677132b357 n7100
 cd ../..

* Note: The filename for the downloaded tar may be different from the name listed above

===Compiling the ROM===
First, prepare the build environment then build the ROM. I'm also opening up another shell to prevent problems from occurring after building the toolchain. 
 
 bash
 . build/envsetup.sh
 lunch replicant_n7100-userdebug
 export ANDROID_JAVA_HOME=$JAVA_HOME

 parallel_tasks=$(echo "$(grep 'processor' /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l ) + 1" | bc)
 make -j$parallel_tasks bacon
 
And finally, sign the resulting images.

 ./vendor/replicant/sign-build n7100
