I can’t find a clear list of what files needs developer’s attention when i’m building a new Android image.
All the guides that i have found until now are way too generic or really old.
I’m supposing that i’m not interested on customize the platform, i just want a vanilla flavour but for my device only.
The answer is a bit complicated. You probably cannot build a vanilla Android for your device, unless your device is one of the google developer phones. Here is a list of the devices you can build Android for. The reason being that the manufactures usually does not publish all the parts needed to actually build Android for their devices.
But do have a look at the cyanogenmod project, and see if they support your device. They are kind of trying to make a “vanilla” android source for the devices which the manufactures themselves does not support. And they are doing quite a nice job, in my opinion. I have a custom build of Android 4.0 for my Galaxy SII running for months now, and it is working perfectly fine.
If you update your questions with the devices your are using, I can probably provide specifics on how you can build cyanogenmod for your specific device.
