WTF ! No Replies
Well just wanted throw a shout here.
I want to ask why P350 repo is used to do this? It is as same as performing a binary port with lots of data payload.

hehe lol it is not binary port p350 is having same chipset as a60 namely msm7x27 and it is nearly same device so device config is ported to a60 !! first understand what is device config and what is compiled from source. can you tell me in what sense it is binary port ! device folder is open source ! checkout on my github : github.com/keyur2maru you gotta need to check boardconfig then you will know what is compiled from source first understand and then reply Regards , Keyur maru

Oh well don't tell that to me.
Same chipset doesn't mean that you just sync it from someones repo and build it?
Some common sense is needed to be used, you should have recommended him to build from CyanogenMod sources instead of pimping yours, and help him configure from scratch.
If this is the matter(and extent of your knowledge) why don't you mention what things you modified in the source in order to adapt for Micromax A60?
heehee lol first open my device config and check everything is modded ! for a60 and yeah you replied Rohan that Im copying ron stuff hehe !!
CM7 is Really Done by Drap and Pax0r not by Ron G
and about copying who said im copying I was the man for cm9 and checkout device config it is like written from scratch only checkout nothing is there related to p350 and if similar hardware is there ! it is ofcourse that we will port that device config to work with our device it is like RMCC ( LGE DeVICES MAINTAINER ) also do the same It is No need to write full from scratch i think you need to learn more not me

This is where the noobish step was taken.
Boardconfig is meant to be constructed from scratch by analyzing the kernel configuration(Don't keep on shooting device specs are same)
Device specs doesn't mean you can grab the device configuration from it.
The location from where the source is synced doesn't matter(provided that its unmodded) but the Configuration matters a lot. Compiler analyses the configuration and readily modifies the source code and initializes compilation.
And this is why major functions are not working in your buid.
I saw your github repo of A60 and as it is a initial commit I cannot see what configurations you changed.
Can you mention here the modified lines?
And for "you need to learn more than me"
I would say no one is perfect, I agree that I have no experience in building a ROM from source(as I lack a good network connection) but that doesn't mean I have no knowledge in it. And for that statement you may receive a infraction from a XDA moderator These are fundamental aspects which are needed to be understood before proceeding with a build.
See bro I don't wanna fight but just i want to say that it is my own work it is not copied if you don't understand what are changes done how can you say im copying I don't fight It is my Own work Not any copied one
---------- Post added at 02:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:48 PM ----------
and if you want to see edits just have a view at boardconfig can check nothing is related to p350 i just want to prove that it is my official work and not copied work and about i said
You need to learn more rather than me
I said that because you're statement is totally wrong ! i know im right so i said that

I don't have anything to do with if you copied or didn't.
But the approach Guided by you to Rohan is way tedious and will end both of you with nasty unremovable bugs which will point to binary port again!
You know this very well configurations play a vital role and are meant to be constructed from scratch instead of base them on other device
Yes you can use it for reference, but not use it for compilation as it contains device specific configurations.

What should I do with boardconfig? To see what's changed I need commits with those changes.
And how was I wrong?
Prove it pls.
See bro I don't think i should recieve infraction and about fixes it is not like in the first build we will get everything working even steve kondik will not able to do this our first aim was to get it booted and then fix bugs and about fixing bugs that are not fixed in rom ! they are fixed in device folder ! and about my way even RMCC do the same to get cm7 or cm9 on any new lge devices ! it is not written from base ! and check device folder most things are written from base and edited boardconfig and fixes will be done by adding new lines removing unnedded lines and all !

just compare p350 boardconfig from cyanogenmod repo and compare with my a60 boardconfig and even compare whole device tree everything is changed and edited and that's the way we get cm7 or cm9 on new device and about p350. our cm7 main dev drap also ported p500 device config
Alright! I will see what's done and send a pull request too if needed
Good luck!
Thanks Bro See I Don't wanna fight !
I Just wanna Prove that I was Right And If you want further Proof Wait i will first fork p350 repo and then do edits in further commits so you can see commits and check what's edited As right now im busy in releasing my ics weekly #1 for p350 and did i got infraction i think i should not
Good to see cm7 for a60 ! Congrats guys

GB 2.3.7 port to karbonn A1
Hey friends i have successfully ported a rom based on racer rom on my Karbonn A1 or Zte N721 or Zte Racer or MMX A60 all have same specifications .the base ROM is racers ROM based on CM 7 . If i flashed it as it is it does not boot earlier. Then i used android kitchen porting tool . Now the rom the booting on my device but the issue is that My WiFi, Bluetooth and No service with sim. Idnt understand whats the problem is i guess it is dude to drivers but i dnt know how to change them.I need suggestions so that i can start working further .
here is the link to ported rom .

I was wondering if you guys would be as much helpful in making a CM based ROM for Micromax A57, which is a simple midrange model. But we have got a large community of users, and small-time developers. It would be awesome to see CM booting up in our phone Please help us

Hi All.
I am Abhisek and I am trying to build CyanogenMod from source for our Micromax A70.
Micromax A70 is quite popular in India as a budget phone, but this device is stuck with Froyo. No more updates from Micromax as well as no kernel source from Micromax. So I am trying to build CyanogenMod from source for Micromax A70.
I am choosing CyanogenMod over AOSP as CyanogenMod supports more devices and have many patches over AOSP. So building CyanogenMod will be easier than AOSP. If successful, I will port a Oxygen/AOSP build.
I was about to give up hope until I found out how to enable ADB on Micromax A70. So I have successfully enabled ADB & obtained the system dumps. Now I can start on this project.
Current Status:
1. ADB is working perfectly.
2. System dump obtained.
3. Hardware info obtained.
4. Firmwares obtained.
5. CyanogenMod sources download in progress.
6. Currently creating the device & vendor folders.
I will keep the progress updated here. Lets hope for best.
P.S. Mods if this thread is inappropriate or in wrong forum, please do the needful. Couldn't find a better place to post this.
Reserved for future use
Reserved for future changelogs
I will provide the adb tutorial in case anyone is interested ( that is how I got the system dump ). All credits go to mastermind1024 of androidforums.com. It's not my work, so if you have to thank, thank him. He is the one did all the adb working stuff. You can read the original post Here.
Update:
mastermind1024 is here on XDA. You can see the tutorial Here.
For me, I have to manually run /sbin/adbd from Android terminal emulator to get a working adb connection. You also have to give permission for adbd in SuperUser. FYI I use ubuntu.
If you need the boot.img & recovery.img You can follow the tutorial Here

you mean this rom is under development? I don't have a70 just asking. And you are on right place. Also microsoft needed to open kernel source.

Yes the ROM is under development. The repo sync is taking forever. I have a pathetic BSNL BB Connection here.

Yes AFAIK if I succeed, this will first GB ROM for A70.
------------ edit -------------
I have tried to run ADB with root permissions. It works, but somehow adb remout does not work.
P.S.: I found the problem, the system was already r/w.
I would say NO bcoz i m from a secret team and we had ported GB to A70 and touch doesn't work in any of the Ports
Moreover u will wonder that touch doesn't work in Android 1.5,1.6 which i had ported from HTC G1 also it doesn't work in 2.1 which i ported from Micromax A60
So we need to build ROM from source which u r doing. Moreover that is not enough because as soon as sync completes then we need to enable touch drivers in BoardConfig.mk

Great!! I had no idea A70 had a GB port. If you can share the details It would be easier to compile for A70.

This seems like a binary port using kitchen. Right?
Binary port?
Its ported using kitchen which involves replacement of kernel.
And when sync completes, inform us here,a we will make two roms.
One with unchanged boardconfig.mk and second with modded boardconfig.mk
Sent from my Micromax_A70 using Tapatalk
Replacement of kernel includes replacing binary files including so ko and firmware files. Which are all binary. Only recompile includes a output which is not binary replacement.
Download is still at 93%. I will come back when its finished.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA
I am also at 91% since a week..i am getting fatal errors on sync now n then..project downloads upto abt 86%(abt 650mb) n then I get error...i had to do all again..still no luck.i wish i can finish it tonight.we (me,varun,akshay) eager to lunch rom from cm source as we have hope that changing boardconfig will give us working touch.let's see.
extract-files.sh
I have completed sync & also made extract-files.sh
I want others to examine & complete it if I have missed something.

the script doesnt have adb pull for the binary akmd2.without which sensors wont work .
and in a70 there is also a file called Focal touch.kcm and this is used by the kernel at boot i checked in dmesg .
so add this two files two ..

Got it now. Thankyou
Please post source code. Else thread is going to be closed
Regarding special kernel features... Exfat, f2fs... It's totally useless because this is integrated on rom side (fuse - Filesystem in userspace) already. And kernel implementation is not even been used, although being present, if one does not force initramfs to use it (which breaks adoptable storage).

Why you may be 2 years to spread the firmware and the kernel without the source code, and I can not? I'm not ready to shell out possibly a month.
We were not allowed by jiayu China.
You forked our gpl kernel. Yours has to be gpl as well because of this.
The M.A.D. Team
hi, how about twrp that also supports and read f2fs?
When I put the kernel to 5.1, Report response was exactly the same. Why you are allowed to upload 5.1 without source, but I do not? Double standards? =)
(When I uploaded my kernel 5.1 on the forum moderator said, too, that you why he will not say the same about the 5.1? Double standards? =) )

Also, we never released any kernel on xda, because we were not allowed to. Some people are just too stupid to read xda rules.
If you are going to release vernee kernel without sources, your thread gets closed as well.

Actually he was simply stating what XDA rules demand for development threads ...
Also he was actually helping out the guy when he said his "commits " of adding exfat and all on kernel is useless .
Xfat,and this file systems...are not mandated by kernel , but at user level ...
Verevka seems not to understand very well MediaTek environment
( understandable, we all need to learn at some point ), he was actually helping the guy out.
The "rudeness" was simply a legitimate statement if we look at :
- XDA rules concerning GPL, and development threads.
- And, GPL rules and code of conduct , how to use commits, rebasing on an outside sources , cherry-picking, keeping git credits , and keep a git history.
This are all terms that you are most likely not familiar with
( understandable your not a kernel developer )
But its something that verevka will sooner or later must embrace, and follow this rules on future works like vernee, or simply on community based works .
His first reply was due to lack of verevka's source. Since there was only a link to M.A.D. repo of github, that did not reflect the source used on this kernel...
Our GPL is up, enyone is free to use it, and PLEASE USE IT.
But there's guidelines to follow...
Cheers
Hello there!
Many of you want to get a nougat working rom for our Xperia E3. We have kernel sources, vendor files, device... So if you wanna try to make the rom this guide is for you.
Prerequisites
64 bit computer with 64 bit Linux OS installed (or virtual machine)
At least 4gb of RAM and about 100GB of free storage (more if you enable ccache)
Much patience (the process will be long)
Getting started
Android SDK
You can setup android SDK by running
Code:
sudo apt-get install adb fastboot
Installing required packages
For that you can follow the steps on https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/nicki/build#install-the-build-packages
Setting up directories
Create a folder in which android source will be downloaded
Code:
mkdir -p ~/android/lineage
Note: "~/android/lineage" is an example, you can create whatever folder you want, but in the next steps be sure you change paths.
Install the repo command
Like before you only need to run
Code:
sudo apt-get install repo
Initialize the LineageOS source repository
Now we can start to prepare sources download. Enter the following to initialize the repository:
Code:
cd ~/android/lineage
repo init -u https://github.com/LineageOS/android.git -b cm-14.1
And we need to prepare local manifests:
Code:
git clone https://github.com/rmnhg/local_manifests.git -b cm-14.1 .repo/local_manifests
Download the source code
To start the download of the source code to your computer:
Code:
repo sync
Note: This process will be long (over 30gb are going to be downloaded) and can be longer if your connection is slow so be patience.
Prepare the device-specific code
After the source downloads, ensure you’re in the root of the source code, then type:
Code:
source build/envsetup.sh
breakfast flamingo
This will prepare flamingo sources to be compiled.
(Optional) Turn on caching to speed up build
You can setup ccache if you want to speed up subsequent builds by running:
Code:
export USE_CCACHE=1
and adding that line to your ~/.bashrc file. Then, specify the maximum amount of disk space you want ccache to use by typing this from the top of your Android tree:
Code:
prebuilts/misc/linux-x86/ccache/ccache -M 50G
where 50G corresponds to 50GB of cache. This needs to be run once. Anywhere from 25GB-100GB will result in very noticeably increased build speeds (for instance, a typical 1hr build time can be reduced to 20min). If you’re only building for one device, 25GB-50GB is fine. If you plan to build for several devices that do not share the same kernel source, aim for 75GB-100GB. This space will be permanently occupied on your drive, so take this into consideration. See more information about ccache on Google’s Android build environment initialization page.
You can also enable the optional ccache compression. While this may involve a tiny performance slowdown, it increases the number of files that fit in the cache. To enable it, run:
Code:
export CCACHE_COMPRESS=1
or add that line to your ~/.bashrc file.
You can also change ccache files path by running:
Code:
export CCACHE_DIR=[COLOR="YellowGreen"]<path of your choice>[/COLOR]
or add that line to your ~/.bashrc file.
Configure jack
Jack is the new Java compiler used when building LineageOS 14.1. It is known to run out of memory - a simple fix is to run this command:
Code:
export ANDROID_JACK_VM_ARGS="-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -XX:+TieredCompilation -Xmx4G"
Adding that command to your ~/.bashrc file will automatically configure Jack to allocate a sufficient amount of memory.
Start building
Now you can start compiling LineageOS. You can start running:
Code:
croot
brunch flamingo
NOTE: If terminal tells you "croot/breakfast: command not found" just run
Code:
source build/envsetup.sh
and try again.
NOTE 2: If you receive the error "SSL error when connecting to the Jack server. Try 'jack-diagnose'" check this post for a fix.
This will finally compile LineageOS for flamingo :good:
If it finishes succesfully, you will have in out/target/product/flamingo two files:
recovery.img, which is the LineageOS recovery image.
lineage-14.1-<date>-UNOFFICIAL-flamingo.zip, which is the LineageOS installer package.
You have to flash ano and copy installer zip into the phone.
Then reboot into recovery (Power+Vol down) and install this zip.
You can flash flash recovery running
Code:
sudo fastboot -s 256M flash recovery <pathtorecovery.img>
Thanks to @infus for his trick (-s 256M) with fastboot commands for big images.
I hope this guide has been useful for you

UPDATES
[06/13/2017] Guide successfully builds Lineage, but we have to fix kernel becouse it's not booting. I've also updated my local_manifests repo, so you need to run in android/lineage this
Code:
cd .repo/local_manifests && git pull origin cm-14.1 ;
cd ../..
[06/23/2017] Booted! But there are some bugs, we will upload ROM when that bugs are fixed
[07/25/2017] After a month we got this working for all variants, with basic hardware working (no camera yet) and with latest TWRP working . I'm working now on getting camera working and other small projects (on Xperia E3 also) but I am being slower to release new things because I have not much time and internet to work, I'm sorry.
[09/01/2017] Camera driver is now working! I have ported stock camera driver to renaissance kernel (LA.BF.1.1.3.. CAF) in another folder with the tag CONFIG_MSMB_CAMERA_FLAMINGO
Camera is still not working because of the HAL but it is nearer
[12/15/2017] I'm sorry we paused releasing updates for the compiled ROM, but I've changed much code and worked hard on camera (which is published on another branch named cm-14.1-cameratesting). Soon I will get some things finished and continue some other projects I had for this device. By the way I wish you a merry Christmas!
Reserved.
First of all I'm thanking you that at least you started to create the ROM for our device...
I really want to help you but I can't, due to internet connection, I don't have much data that I can download those sources (over 30gb)
But I really appreciate your work and hope someday you develop the ROM....
Hello! First of all, this version of Lineage is a very good thing for the Android Community ! I saw in the title that you are facing some difficulties, I'll try to help you. I have a friend who have the phone you talk about. We will probably try it on Wednesday. Did you need a log or something after you did ? Do you have the phone, or do you want my friend's one to test it ? Do you think that your ROM is compatible with your variant ? Or mine ? Thanks for passing some time on the gid build ! Have a good day !

The problems I have are related to system libs when compiling. Some of them fail to compile and I have to fix them manually, becouse of that system.img is not ready. All I have are LineageOS recovery and boot img files for LTE variants (for me that is not working but maybe for your phones things go well). On friday I can upload that imgs for you for test (remember that I have not system compiled so you can install recovery, boot.img may not work with other roms.
With my friend (who owns the xperia e3 d2203) we have started the step currently on the step of 30gb download
You can make a group with telegram to avoid polishing xda to speak and try to solve the problem encountered if you want it by giving the invitation link

Good idea! I'm going to do that
EDIT: Created a telegram group. You can join here https://t.me/xperia_e3
Hello ! After trying to compile the build, it stops and says that the error 1 has occurred. I tried many times but I always got this error (the only thing that changed is the time before the error occurs). I maybe didn’t correctly write the part with java and jack, but I just started to rewrite all from the beginning, I will keep you informed !?
I will prepare a computer to do this. It is almost done, just need a mouse I will download all these sources and start asap. Any help is much appreciated
EDIT: I have a Xperia E3 ready to test anything you want to. Just PM me for better contact info.. I'm here to help the development of this ROM.
I'm still using CM11 ;-; (can't live without camera)

@jpzex, @infus38, @rmnhg, I think you all have D2203. So, will you Port this ROM for D2212 after development of this ROM?

Yes, that is not difficult. I think that a little kernel change and some build.prop tweaks could do the trick, but first we need to complete a single build for D2203, which is the main model.

Which source that you used as device and kernel tree? And are you building nougat? I'm D2202 user
anyway, for D2202 only available source for cm12.1 when i see from @hell_lock. Will our device run with that device tree?

We are using this kernel with this device tree. That sources are mainly designed for LTE variants, but in yukon repo there is more support for D2202/12 devices (see this commit).

Okay, thanks sir. I was recently trying to fix for D2202 too. i'm using different source code, this for device tree device tree & this for yukon platform yukon tree. anyway for kernel itself i don't know which source that i must using it, i'm using xperia open kernel device by jerpelea and using yukon codename. but i'm still not compile it yet since i've problem with los 13.0

and anyway, when i check your kernel source that is for D2203 mode (arima_8926SS) for single sim. can we use that kernel? since i'm using same config too?
I'll try to using your source and report it back

oh ya, and vendor source? when i saw from themuppets. Flamingo only updated until cm-12.0 and after that in cm-13.0 until cm-14.0 flamingo doesn't exist in that branch?

For vendor I'm using https://github.com/kj77/vendor-yukon on cm-14.1 branch
I think you need to include some device tree files for D2202/D2212 in kernel, since as you said that kernel is specific for D2203. I could try to make basic support for it.
The source code for Oppo RealMe 1 is released with that of RealMe U1.

Can expect some nice Custom Mods and ROMs now. :laugh: :happy:
I guess no one is going to create a rom for our device

Actually its hard to work on a totally new architecture devs need time to be used to it
also because no other devices like oppo gave kernel source on their f9 which has the same p60 processor which comes to conclusion devs have to work right from the scratch to build roms for this device
Have patience until someone notices the actual easyness of porting rom to this device and the probability of a developer getting a mediatek device is rare
Can any one provide me with the device tree for our device, I am working on a Custom Rom for RealMe1? Follow the steps for extracting the device tree. Or use your Google Skills and extract it.

Actually, I'm a dev from Moto G5 community. And a friend asked me to make one for this device and I came here after searching for a while. Now if someone can extract the device and the vendor tree I surely will build one. I can't do that myself as I don't have the device and I'm busy with school so can't bother downloading the factory image and extracting.

There is nothing like new architecture. Porting ROMs is a bad idea and best is compiling from source
