      @tchan @tchan I dont think specs is the problem here since Galaxy Tab 2 was supported by Canonical when they're still the one who manage Ubuntu Touch and someone actually already ported UT for this device that boots and works with UI

        @applee I don't have it, I think there are some files missing even though repo sync completely

          Alright, so given the error message and the fact you don't have the file I guess you'll have to create it.
          Given the .mk extension I bet it is a makefile hopefully an autogenerated one or you'll have to manually create one.

          Best of luck.

            Looking for mention of gpg on default.xml at https://github.com/Halium/android/blob/halium-7.1/default.xml for Halium 7.1 shows up nothing, is that normal?

              Hi,
              I'm not an expert of porting but maybe the device is a bit too low of specs.
              I have a Galaxy tab 4 and it's also too low (1Go) of RAM.

              Good luck!

              That is not an issue, I have had successfully built halium and ubuntu touch for the device, the issue is missing files

                  @mighty hey its you, thx for helping me with this but there's another problem. So I downloaded the master branch of gpg here https://github.com/ubports/android_external_gpg and paste it on the external folder. Now when I execute mka mkbootimg I got this error

                  build/core/base_rules.mk:183: *** external/gpg: MODULE.TARGET.STATIC_LIBRARIES.libdl already defined by bionic/libdl.
make: *** [build/core/ninja.mk:167: /home/yxles/halium/out/build-aosp_espresso3g.ninja] Error 1
make: Leaving directory '/home/yxles/halium'

                  So I thought maybe it conflicted with bionic/libdl so I removed that and execute the command again and now I got this

                  build/core/binary.mk:1253: external/gpg/g10/Android.mk: static_gpg: Unused source files: filter.h
build/core/binary.mk:1253: external/gpg/util/Android.mk: libgpgutil: Unused source files: assuan-defs.h

make: *** [build/core/ninja.mk:167: /home/yxles/halium/out/build-aosp_espresso3g.ninja] Error 1
make: Leaving directory '/home/yxles/halium'

                  How do I fix this?

                          Where does it say that removing device/sample is gonna fix it?

                            @mighty the line

                            device/sample/frameworks/PlatformLibrary/Android.mk:37: build/core/java_library.mk: No such file or directory

                            I guess when it tries to build the device/sample, it looks for that file but since it doesn't exist for me it just errors out and stop the building so I just deleted it (temporarily) to see if it fix it and it did build without errors
