Initial sync of the Android source tree can take a lot of time and fail in between. Just try running the repo sync command again the way you did, try it a few times.
If it’s still failing, it could be that something got corrupted during initial sync (that sometimes happens, just because of the amount of git projects and data in them). If that’s the case, it might be easiest to just delete your workspace and try again.

Hey, i am new in ROM development and interesting in to how to build stock firmware for my new Fairphone 5.
In official documentation Fairphone 5 - Android Source Code — FAIRPHONE open source documentation i found how to fetch FP5 stock source code, there are two repos. qssi and target. i fetched it successfully. But i didnt found instructions how to build this from source.
This two repo are so confusing me
I have try to build both repo separetely
When im building fp5-qssi i see this lines
~/fp5-qssi$ source build/envsetup.sh
including vendor/qcom/opensource/core-utils/vendorsetup.sh
~/fp5-qssi$ ./build.sh

Can you give me some ideas how to build the firmware from two repos?
Moved your post here maybe read above else maybe @karsten or @MaartenD can help with a tipp

Dear all,
Thanks for you patience, unfortunately it will still take some time for us to wrap up this topic properly, say Q2-Q3 2024.
To clarify things, the currently published source tree is as complete as it gets, we published everything we legally can, everything that’s not proprietary in some way. The major change we’ll need to do is to restructure the source tree in a way that it can be built without proprietary dependencies (toolchains, headers, etc), and move those proprietary components into a blobs package, as we’re doing for the previous devices already. This is complex, because the source tree as it comes from suppliers is typically not set up in a way designed for open sourcing.
Meanwhile as @MaartenD said, if we can support you on some specific topics on the currently published source tree let us know

Hi. I think that I can see a Device Tree Source.
It appears to be fp5-kernel/kernel/msm-5.4/arch/arm64/boot/dts/vendor/fp5
However the Makefile refers to a code names of devices (rather that fairphone5), which I know is normal.
Which of these codenames is the fairphone5 and is the DTS actually there as I suspect it is?
thanks
Soooooo about that. How’s it going?

Hi!
Since Android 14 for Fairphone 5 has been released, we are now happy to announce the release of the corresponding source code, like we did for Android 13.
The instructions are now updated for Android 14 on code.fairphone.com in the Fairphone 5 section.
Thank you.

We’re are also still working on publishing a source tree that you can build complete images from. There’s progress, but no timeline yet.

Hi,
We’re happy to announce that as of today the ODM Android Source Code for Fairphone 5 Android 15 is also now available on code.fairphone.com ! The buildable sources (“public-build”) will follow at a later stage since we wanted to get the code out as fast as possible.
Since we didn’t link it here yet, the buildable sources are available for Fairphone 5 Android 13 and Android 14, for more details see: Fairphone 5 Android 13 and 14 source code build
Thanks!
