TARGET_SCREEN_WIDTH := 540
PRODUCT_AAPT_PREF_CONFIG := hdpi

Are you trying to build for cm11 or cm12?
for a device you should have /device/samsung/codename/
and also /device/samsung/codename-common
you'll also need the kernel
/kernel/samsung/codename/
then the proprietary vendor
vendor/samsung
It looks like you guys can root and install twrp?
can you guys build a test kernel for kitkat and flash that through twrp?
what are the repos you guys are using for the device, device-common, propietary verndor, and kernel?

We're (you're, cause I'm a nobody) saved!
They can indeed root and TWRP is a thing.
Everything you see thus far is in the OP.
And guys - you have a PROPER developer here. I am a n00b who got nothing. Let me know if I can change the OP (I'll still be around, but now I'm about as useless as a bucket of spoiled milk), or whatnot.

But... But I've not yet given birth to a child before!!!!! (no really, I am such a newb... I'm always trying to learn though)... Anyways, are these files I need to grab you from the source?

Are all your files for kitkat? Is that what you guys have been working on?

I figured we should work on CM11 before moving over into CM12 because the last firmware for the device is 4.4.2, and that's what we have source (from Samsung) for.

Can you get cm11 to build, flash and boot?

No. We're stuck on a build error. I believe it has something to do with the vendor blobs and them not extracted correctly

By using CM11 for another device (github for everything currently), it fails to boot. There was a DMESG posted on page 4

PS, that device has nearly everything the same BUT the resolution (I know, this is a big thing), camera, and POSSIBLY radio

What were the build errors?

Are you talking about the boot verification message? The bootloaders are unlocked?

If the device is nearly the same then changing the resolution to the advant resolution should fix that.

Right now just concentrate on getting the ROM to boot up and get some video going.

That was what I was thinking. No, I was talking about this:
I think it refers to the screen... As the errors mentiones that an IO isn't working. Seems to be related to the graphics part of the kernel. I could be wrong

Which is what I tried to prioritize

For sure a display driver issue.

Are you using the kernel for kk that Samsung provided?
Now the question -
Is this easily fixable?
