Alcatel OT992D rom porting? - Miscellaneous Android Development

Hello guys, i am having trouble porting roms to ot992d.
I followed the guide in mt65xx rom porting thread but it seems like roms need additional modifying because of Alcatel's /custpack partition.
Everytime i try to flash a ported rom i mess up that partition and i have to completely reflash firmware. It would be great if someone could help me

Hello Sh0m1, I've been in the same part than you and haven't found a solution... I've seen a possible solution with 3 "thanks" so, maybe it would work... I can't say if it does because I just found it with your own thread. Other possible way to work this is to consult with other ROM developers that have been working with alcatel phones, I was thinking maybe the guys from Ewra project.
I'm citing that so thanked possible solution by yuweng:
i don't think any other ROM will ever boot on Alcatel except for Stock ROM b'cos it uses a totally different partition layout & format...
Further more, /custpack partition contains app, framework, JRD_custres, modem, usr & etc which is totally different from standard MT6577...
If you are adventurous enough, delete /custpack & /mobile_info from your scatter.txt, edit it with reference to standard MT6577 scatter, download it, port CWM/ TWRP to standard MT6577 format then you can port any MT6577 ROM to it, theoretically...
If you don't understand a word i'm saying then don't do it or you will end up like them here...

In my experience, Chinese android phones are very fragile and easy to be bricked. Those recovery are tailored for popular models only. You need to learn how to port them for your device if you really wanna install them. Otherwise, I would not suggest trying anything on impulse (speaking of own experience )
The brand of the phone is Qcom huh, and the android is stock Google right? i mean there are no customisations like in Sony, Samsung or HTC.
As my fellow member said, the process is risky and you may brick your phone(just a warning).
You have to flash recovery into phone using Odin, but i am not sure the device will be compatible with Odin.
These threads may help. but make sure you know what you are doing. Proceed only if you are 100% sure of what you are doing as the risk of bricking your phone is very high.

[Completed] custom rom noob help needed

Hello I'm new to this forum and I'd like to ask some questions.
I have one of the most unknown phone on the market I guess, it's a Nuu Z8.
I believe there isn't a single thread about the Nuu Z8. Anyway to my point I was looking for a custom ROM (like CyanogenMod) but of course it doesn't support my phone.
Then I started to ask myself and now you guys, could it be that I can use a CyanogenMod ROM that isn't meant to be for my phone but possibly could work because it is made for the same architecture and stuff? (I found a few ROMS made for my architecture)
further specs:
cpu:
- MediaTek MT6752
- ARM Cortex-A53
- 64bit
- ARMv8-A
- 1700MHz
- 8 cores
GPU:
- ARM Mali-T760 MP2
- 2 cores
- 700MHz
RAM:
- 2GB of LPDDR3 800MHz single channel RAM
storage:
-32GB
DUAL sim and sd card
5.5" screen with 1080x1920 pixels
if more specs are needed you have to google:" NUU Moblie Z8 - Specifications devicespecifications . com
Edit: There also isn't a cwm or twrp custom recovery menu made for my phone but I can flash ROMS and ZIP/OTA files using flashfire.
I believe this also means that when I brick my phone I can't install the default ROM because I don't have an custom recovery menu.
Hi Gimly161
Thank you for using XDA Assist
I was able to find only one XDA thread regarding your device:
NUU Mobile Z8 Unboxing & First Impressions - Budget Phone - Great Specs (Joshua Bane)
CyanogemMod as well as every ROM, Custom Recoveries and Root scripts are developed regarding each targeted device. It would be difficult (dangerous indeed) to use other devices development onto your device.
So, as we do not have an specific forum dedicated for your device yet, our experts at the below forum may be able to help you. Please be welcome to post over in there.

Nice regards and good luck.
