Did you tried compiling or building the ROM? Any success with the Provided sources?

I haven't done it before but i'm a pretty expert at porting apps and theming stuff so i can try building a cyanogenmod rom for this device
but all i need is some testers.
My dad has this phone and it's very laggy so i know why people want a custom ROM
P.S.:My dad won't allow me to root his phone
so i need some testers and some more developers will start my work next month stay tuned and pm me if you want to join hands!

yes Bro I Am Ready For Testing Your Rom Just Build It

Thanks for help. If you build your ROM, I'll test it on my S7390 - I should only change model number in build.prop and some info in updater-script. S7390 is just the same as S7392 - the only difference is the fact S7392 has 2 sim card slots - that's why its name is duos.
PS. I'm counting on you, I think you can do it!

i am up with testing and developing

I want to test your ROM as soon as you have it

[Q] Building stable rom with kernel sources

Hi, may I ask somebody experienced with ROM building, if it is possible to build fully functional and stable build from AOSP sources if i have kernel sources for my device from vendor?

Hi, yes. I've compiled lollipop nexus4 from aosp in ubuntu 14.04.1 x64 in vmware.
I've downloaded the source, included the proprietary files, and compiled android, compiled with make and make otapackage to generate the zip.
After that i've rooted the device, installed twrp.
Finally, i've downloaded the source kernel and compiled to generate the .img. I've flashed this to the device with fastboot, and
yeeeeeeh perfect!!!
obviously, after this, i've downloaded the gapps and installed.
But, which version would you compile? And which device? All the sources are available and open source?

i wana make AOSP build for Huawei Ascend G6, I have only kernel sources from vendor... I suppose that kernel will work with any version of android or not?

Ok, you have the sources, very good.
mmm, i'm not sure that every kernel + android combinations work perfectly together.
For example, on my nexus4 i've kernel 3.4 and lollipop. Now, if android lollipop requires some modules/functionalities/"other magic stuff" to work properly from the kernel, and you install kernel 2.x.x without this feature, probably you'll have problems.
I mean, i'm not sure, but is only a logic hypothesis.
You can solve this problem using the latest official version of android from Huawei and your compiled kernel from Huawei sources. If this works, try to update android to another version with a custom rom. It works? Perfect!, It not works? Damn, restore the backup and use another older android version
To build android/kernel you must transform into a researcher :laugh:

[Q] Are Cyanogen devices tree compatible with AOSP ?

Hi all,
I've a question for you guys.
I've a SG3 (i9300), I'd like to know if using the cyanogen device tree for my device (located here) is possible to build AOSP source code.
if yes, then it looks like that would be possible to compile Lollipop AOSP for my device.. am I right ?
Thank you very much.

Cyanogen IS AOSP... Lol. Its AOSP with added features. If that's not an Android 5.0 lollipop kernel source, then it won't boot out of the box. Your best bet would be to get some Android 4.4 kernel source and do ramdisk edits and what not needed to get an Android 5.0 ROM booting. Alternatively, if your device is CM supported, I know they were talking about releasing CM12 soon, you could just hold out to see if your device is supported. Outside of CM, many custom ROMs (AOKP, Pacman, etc.) Take it upon themselves to release ROMs as well. Example: PACman had a 4.4 custom ROM out and in circulation, even before cyanogenmod, so u never know!

Hello, thanks for your answer.
I'd like to know this only for learning purpose, I'm not going to compile the AOSP
What I don't understand, is why adding the device tree to the lollipop AOSP is not sufficient to boot out of the box, can you please explain this in details ? Many thanks.

[Help] Building Rom

Hello people I wanted to help make a custom ROM CyanogenMod for my galaxy trend lite (duos).
I already have the source 12.1 and the sources of my device, and when I try to compile my terminal displays an error saying that I do not have the sources of my device
Note: I put in the right folders
I wanted a help to you I compile my custom rom for my device
Sometime after I exclude the source of CyanogenMod and when I went down again in the terminal lock 99%.
I am thinking it was the sourcefui try to download the source of (AOKP) but also of the same error
I am grateful for the responses
