HandsomeMod Alpha

Devoloping now happen in HandsomeMod 21.03

IOT Freedom For End-user!

Development in this branch is now discontinued!

19.07 is too old for some features in HandsomeMod.

Warning!!

This Project is unstable and un-fully tested right now!

HandsomeMod is Not A router-only distribution.

Right Now Router is not Our Mainly Support Target.

This is the buildsystem for the HandsomeMod Linux distribution.

To build your own firmware you need a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported.

You need gcc, binutils, bzip2, flex, python, perl, make, find, grep, diff, unzip, gawk, getopt, subversion, libz-dev and libc headers installed.

1. Run "./scripts/feeds update -a" to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default

2. Run "./scripts/feeds install -a" to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/

3. Run "make menuconfig" to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages.

4. Run "make" to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system.

Thanks

The orginal code comes form openwrt 19.07.

Project Goal

• Create a ready-to-use lightweight linux distribution for single-board computer and IOT devices.

• Bring package-manager to devices that has lower memory.

• Maybe the first mainline-based IOT Solution?

• A Simple distribution for IOT devices with screen.

The Main Target Support By HandsomeMod

• Allwinner Socs （Sunxi）

• Freescale I.MX6ULL Family

• Hi35xx (EOF)

• MSM8916 (Planing)

• Samsung Exynos 4412 On samsung i9300(planing)

What is Moded?

• Change some source mirrors (Build faster in China).

• Add some basic modules to support gpu and drm.

• Add rt-linux patches.

• Add Fbdev Based mali blobs.

• Add lvgl Support.

• Include Socs not yet in mainline(eg. Allwinner V3s F1cx00s and HiSilicon hi35xx).

• Update the kernel backport driver to 5.8(better wifi signal).

• Ipcam soc support(Hi35xx) EOF

• Non-free feeds for Allwinner cedarX and HiSilicon libs and modules.

• Some Tweaks in usb gadget .

• Tweaks to support some device with screen.

• Use eudev instead of the orginal one in openwrt.
