[Q] How can build a custom kernel without source code ? - General Topics

I have a clones phone of CHERRY BURST / XOLO A500 / CROSS A28.
TeamBURST is working hard to make perfect cook roms, and I thanks to them.
But, I have some small wishes like TV out, OC,... my device, which need a custom kernel.
My friend have asked some developer about it but they said that they need a source code of my phone.
My phone is a Chinese phone and I can't find any source code of any clones have roms working on my phone.
Anyone can help me ? Please !
(Sory for my bad English)

[Q] CyanogenMod and Lg source code

Hi everyone!
I tried to find information or if someone have just write before...but i think i can't find the way..
My problem is: i have the sourcecode of my Lg device and i have sync the cyanogenmod repo...how can i merge the code?
My device is LgC550, unfortunately is not supported yet but i want to develop custom rom..can someone help me?
Sorry for my bad english!
I don't think that that's as easy as you think. As far as I know Cyanogenmod isn't build from the norman android OS and so you can't just mix them and have a new rom But Maybe I'm not right.

Finally the Kernel Source Code

Hi I am user of ZTE Racer II and,

hi.. i'm already started make some modifications on ROM with other Brazilian DEV's for "Evertek S.A - SKMtek Genesis Tab GT7305"... we already found the source kernel from another Netbook or Development Board PC who uses the same SOC... but nothing already have been maked to kernel, we use the provided kernel from stock (Kernel 3.4.5+)... and about the ROM we already have two custom ROM's... One is Stock Modded (4.2.2) and another is KitKat Ported ROM from another Evertek Device... *Portuguese-Brazil Language Site/Forum
And we already make some modifications to this KK port...
- ROOT
- BusyBox
- Init.D support
- Build.Prop Mods
- SuperUser
- zipalign apps after boot
.. and other mods.
we already make too much on ROM but nothing about kernel... we want make a better kernel with optimizations and a better TCP/Clock Table, More Governors , More I/O Scheduler and maybe Overclock to 1600mhz to start after have a custom Kernel booting...
Now we need someone who understand about recovery's like CWM or TWRP and Kernel Compilation better than me to we can start make something awesome =D i think this can be used to another company's/Chinese tablets too, using the same SOC (WM8880) evidently... . . . (Found^^Working^^Recovery's)
i can't start testing here because if i flash this kernel using the Stock Recovery (WonderMedia Recovery tool) maybe i can possible brick my tablet... so if someone understand about CMW recovery to start would be nice =D

wow there's only a handful on and off development going on for this SoC, I still keep my WM8880 tablet just in case somebody made a breakthrough in doing Custom ROM or even getting real ubuntu/debian to boot natively... are you still on this?

just a few Brazilian and Malasya Developers still make progress with this SoC... if you want to try install the custom ROM´s i have shared upper topic.. it will be by your won and I am not responsible for bricked devices...
i´m already started make progress with Custom Kernel but i need found the touch screen driver source and re-work the sound driver(Alsa Drivers...) and compile the recovery with kernel too.. to than have some trust on my work to flash it on tablet =#

meh, its my rom testing ground anyway not really worried .. i actually have the tablet connect directly from the battery wires(the battery removed) to the adapter(usb)... anything is better than nothing for the development hehe...wait by Malasya do u mean Malaysia? whos that developer lol..

i mean Malaysia.. the country... because i don't have found the real developer.. only the Facebook's group where it have been shared... i write too fast and don't check if i write it correct too...

i Already compile the kernel with CMW recovery and flashed on tablet ... but i need find the Touchpad driver to make he work properly... i stay getting some other minor issues on logcat/kmsg reports...
but i already test four touch drivers and anyone works... only OTG stay working.. that is the problem on developing the kernel without the official source release by the producer company... maybe i will need close this developing project because that =/

man... i just don't want blame anyone but... to we can do something to your tablet we need the kernel source and that don't stay open to developers... on this Chinese tablets we have some little configurations to can work with... but the custom kernel project i need to abandon for two reasons... first i don't have much time to can work to create a stable and functional custom kernel to everyone... second i don't have a kernel source compatible with tablets... what i found is from a electronics engineering Project computer Board ... and to it can fit on tablet is missing too much drivers compatibles with to can work smoothly and functional... someday if i found a new source maybe i can try comeback developer something to that =#
please continue developing this project
I use a genesis 7305 his kernel is very poorly optimized would like to make this usable tablet sorry for my bad English I use Google translator ;-;
2021... I tried to put a Chinese rom, but I brick the tablet, it only responds to fastboot, when I put the sudo command fastboot flash:raw boot uzImage.bin ramdisk.bin and plug in the charger and press power it appears a genesis screen.

It is so hard for MT6589 devices to use KK.But I have successfully got kernel sources from ZTE.I think it impossible for me to make a KK kernel alone,I need help.I know I may not get full sources,but I just want to have a try.
Can who help me?
I am in China,so it is difficult for me to upload sources to github
You can download sources from here.

my phone's model is ZTE U956.
Many Chinese are using the same phone as mine,all of us are looking forward to use KK.
Thanks very much.

Lol, You call Rs. 8000 budget a tight budget??
That's more than enough..
Nowadays, most devices release their kernel source including device trees (Though not proper)..
As far as I can remember, I'll suggest you to buy Yu Yunique, which is quite new as of now and has very less custom ROMs as of now and has sources released..
Or you can choose any other device as you wish.
All you should do is search hard if the source is released for that phone. (All u need to do is Google to find out)
And, there are many tutorials in XDA which will easily help you learn about ROM development.
Note:
ROM development needs some/little Android knowledge depending upon what you're going to do.
To build CM from source, you need a hell lot of knowledge.
You also need a hell lot of time and patience.
To build a custom ROM based on CM, you more or less just need to follow the instructions given in that custom ROM's website.
Also you'll need a fast internet to download sources which will be like 13-16GB (this is for each ROM base)
But, porting a ROM can be quite easy compared to building from source..
So, if you're kind of new, better learn something about Android and how it works, before you buy a phone simply for development purpose, to avoid repenting in the future that you've wasted your money..
