I have made a custom ROM, with additional API's and patches using stock ICS source - Downloaded from source.android.com.
After modifying, patching etc, I built the ROM using 'make' on my Ubuntu machine.
I followed the steps here to build the ROM: http://source.android.com/source/building.html
The output of this procedure is attached as a screenshot
(I copied the folder to windows hence the screenshot shows a windows OS)
Now I have a ROM I am asked to flash it using'fastboot flashall' per the instruction here:
http://source.android.com/source/building-devices.html
My device doesn't seem to support a Fastboot mode.
The output folder of the ROM is attached as a screenshot.
A> When I try to use CWM, it fails to flash - MD5 Mismatch:
Also I am unsure how CWM flashes and which of the folders are to be included. A CWM recovery generates:
1. boot.img
2. recovery.img
3. system.ext4.tar
4. data.ext4.tar
5. cache.ext4.tar
6. nandroid.md5
Clearly my output folder is not aligned to this format. So I'm a bit lost here.
B> Odin takes on tar file. I am not sure if simply making the folder a tar will work.
C> Heimdall doesnt support this tab I guess...
Any ideas on a solution would be appreciated.
Thanks & Regards

Downloaded & Installed a custom ROM zip, it worked. How can I make mine into a zip?
Most of the custom ROMs have a boot.img, system folder, data folder and meta-inf.
What is Meta-Inf?
Also If I zip my ROM (created as mentioned above) and try installing it doesnt since I dont have a Meta-Inf & I cant use the other meta-inf.
This is the ROM I installed: Worked fine except USB-PC connection didnt:

Requirement to make a custom rom
*java jdk installed on your pc
*windows xp or 7.
*package given in download section
Who is this kitchen for ?
Those who are brand new to
creating custom ROMs and
want an easy place to start
learning
Those who just want to modify
shipped ROMs or someone
else's custom ROMs to their
liking
Those who are confused by all
those scripts and complex
commands required for
building and extracting
This is NOT a tool to
automatically turn you into a
full-fledged ROM developer.

to fix camera.
I assume you use dsixda's kitchen.
Set up working folder for stock rom
Go to advanced > tools for boot.img
> unpack boot.img
Navigate to the folder called Boot-extracted.
> rename it to something else (for now: stock boot)
Set up working folder for port rom.
Go to advanced > unpack boot.img
Do a google search for 'winmerge' > install program (free).
Open winmerge, for left navigate to the 'stock boot' folder, and select init.rc (about 40kb)
For right, navigate to the port 'boot-extracted', and select init.rc (about 40kb)
In winmerge find lines like this
Chmod camera blablabla (on the left pane you will see where there are differences)
Chown camera blablabla
If there are differences in those lines, copy the stock lines, and overwrite the port ones
Save the files (crtl+s)
Navigate to boot extracted folder, you can close winmerge. Copy stock Zimage (from 'stock boot' folder) to port, and overwrite the Zimage there with stock one.
Go back to kitchen, > advanced > tools for boot.img > build new boot image.

MTK recovery porting method
Difficulty Level – Medium
Requirements –
1. Developing Skill
2. .img unpack-repack tool ( kitchen or other tool)
3. Notepad++
4. Brain
5. Little Respect
So Let’s start.......
Step 1 : Unpack both ( stock and port) recovey.img
How to Unpack-Repack without kitchen? Follow this tool/guide -->
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tools/general/tool-boot-recovery-img-tools-windows-t2839670/post54644719#post54644719
Step 2 : Now open the default.prop file with NotePAD++ from the Extracted “rmdisk” FOLDER.
Open those build.prop file do all Changes the all changeable things what you can just like that we do when PORTING ROM.
Then COPY the ueventd, meta & factory files those are in (.vc) FILES from the STOCK “rmdisk” FOLDER to PORT…
Step 3 : FROM rmdisk>etc FOLDER open recovery.fstab FILE with NP++ .... REPLACE the from your Stock block with PORT mmcblk ……If you want replace with StockRecovery rmdisk>res>recovery.fstab or with workable RECOVERY. JUST replace the emmc block . If you dont know your phone’s emmc block then dont do this. It maybe harmful.
Step 4 : Now all the works for POTING is now Finished..... Repack the port recovery .img . Flash it. Enjoy.
NOTE : works with CWM based Recoverys like- CTR, COT. Other may not work.

can the backup of the recovery used instead of stock recovery(couldn't find it anywhere)
HOW TO PORT ROMS TO YOUR MTK WITH ANDROID DEVICE
Most of us have always wanted to use custom roms but there just no custom roms for our devices so we just use different app launchers and uninstall some bloatware to make our stock rom feel good.
Rom porting makes it possible to use a custom rom on your mtk device provided in this tutorial they have the same chipset (example: mtk 6582 ported to mtk6582).
THINGS NEEDED :
1. B1 archiver / ES FILE EXPLORER
2. Root Browser.
4. A rooted device is also needed but not much important if you have CWM INSTALLED WITHOUT ROOT.
PROCEDURE :
1. Make a backup of your current rom, preferably CWM backup. You can either use MTK DROID TOOLS or ROM MANAGER...
The location of the backup will be at clockwork/backup/"date and time of the backup ". This is very important since we will need stuff from the back up and we will also use the backup to recover the phone should the ported rom give any problems.
2. At this point I presume you have already downloaded the apps needed and the custom rom you want to use which is in a zip format( this was not important but I had to bring it up cause I know zombies could be reading this.
3. Now extract the custom Rom with Root Browser. if you extracted with Root Browser then the location will be "speedsoftware/extracted/"folder with the name of the custom rom "".
4. Now open Root Browser and open the folders side by side "custom rom which will be ported at one side and other side will be used for searching for the location of the things needed for the custom rom.
5. Delete the following from the Custom rom:
Boot.img
logo.bin (You do this only when you like the Your current logo.bin)
system/vendor
system/usr
system/lib/hw
system/lib/modules
system/lib/libncurses.so
system/etc/firmware
system/etc/vold.fstab
system/etc/vold.fstab.nand
system/etc/bluetooth
6. Now that you have deleted them from the custom rom replace them. You will find the boot.img at clockworkmod/back/"folder with date and time"/boot.img. The rest of the files and folders will br located in the Root /system. Just copy and paste
7. Now at the custom Rom panel go back to where you find the "META-INF" folder,open /google/android will now long press on "updater script" and tap on open with then select text editor.
8. Check The mount & format point check something like this mmcblk0p. A number is always written after the "P" replace the number of your BASE to PORT.
9. Check multi select in B1 archiver Select ( do not archive the folder the files are in but the individual files in the folder containing the extracts)
10. Compress to ZIP file wait till the process finished. Now boot to recovery and flash your ROM
Good luck in porting Your Rom... I have used this method to port 5 roms including AROMA ROMS. and I have never ported a Rom with a pc before
MAYBE U NEED TO EXTRACT THE BOOT IMG TOO IF THIS DIDNT WORKED
DO IT AS FOLLOWS
Requirements:
-- BusyBox (cpio, gunzip and gzip is mandatory)
-- /System Write Permissions (Does not need to be a modified kernel)
-- Terminal Emulator
-- ES File Explorer (or similar)
-- Hex Editor (or use of DD)
-- Open up your android terminal emulator.
-- Now go ahead and pull your boot.img from your device (or use another one if you wish)
-- Open up your boot.img with the Hex Editor and look for: ANDROID!. Remove everything before it so that the ANDROID! header is the first to be read then save it over top of the boot.img. NOTE: This is only required if you are using a stock boot.img.
OR USE THIS IF U DIDNT UNDERSTOOD THIS
Hello Everyone, I’ll show you how to Unpack and Repack your Phone’s Boot.img & Tweak Karnel. Lets start.
