<![CDATA[Trouble when trying to port to TB-X505F]]>I am trying to port Ubuntu Touch to the Lenovo TB-X505F, but there isn't an official port of Lineage OS in GitHub, but there is an unofficial one made by TBX505-Dev right here: https://github.com/TBX505-Dev/device_lenovo_X505L

I tried hooking it up to my build environment using this XML config:

<manifest>
	<project name="TBX505-Dev/device_lenovo_X505L" path="device/lenovo/X505F" remote="github" revision="lineage-17.1"/>
</manifest>

and also this one:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
	<project path="device/lenovo/x505f" name="device_lenovo_X505L" remote="device_lenovo_X505L" revision="lineage-17.1" />
	<remote name="device_lenovo_X505L"
    fetch="https://github.com/TBX505-Dev"
    revision="lineage-17.1" />
</manifest>

Everything works fine with both of the XML files until I try to run the breakfast command with my devices code name (X505F), which results in this error:

including vendor/lineage/vendorsetup.sh
build/make/core/product_config.mk:234: error: Can not locate config makefile for product "lineage_X505F".
14:48:59 dumpvars failed with: exit status 1
Device X505F not found. Attempting to retrieve device repository from LineageOS Github (http://github.com/LineageOS).
Repository for X505F not found in the LineageOS Github repository list. If this is in error, you may need to manually add it to your local_manifests/roomservice.xml.

14:49:01 dumpvars failed with: exit status 1

** Don't have a product spec for: 'lineage_X505F'
** Do you have the right repo manifest?

When I try to run brunch without a device codename specified, and select lineage_arm64-userdebug, I get the error

ninja: error: '/home/user/halium/out/soong/host/linux-x86/bin/d8', needed by '/home/user/halium/out/soong/.intermediates/frameworks/base/packages/EasterEgg/EasterEgg/android_common/dex/EasterEgg.jar', missing and no known rule to make it

Breakfast says something about roomservice.xml, but I can't seem to find that file anywhere. Also, sidenote, lenovo hasn't provided the source code for the kernel for the Lenovo TB-X505F, so the Lineage OS port by TBX505-Dev uses the already compiled kernel.

Is there a way to fix these errors, and if so, how?

I have tried porting postmarketOS to this device too, but the kernel I used is broken. I don't have the files for the port anymore, but I will restart development and try to port this device.

./halium/devices/setup DEVICE

replace DEVICE with your device's codename. This command will sync the required files for your device as specified in the manifest file. I would also recommend reffering to the actual Halium porting guide at Halium Porting Guide by Halium team themselves. But for some reason the ubuntu touch porting guide never mentions that step, even I have ran into that same problem while porting to Redmi 3.

P.S. : run the above command before running the breakfast command.
