[ROM][Development/Experimental][Micromax A70][CyanogenMod from Source]

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 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.

You meant Micromax right
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.

Sure I will check it out. It will speed up the development.
--------- edit ------------
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.

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 .

Request to ALL DEVs.................. Request for Guide for ROM Porting

Dear all Dev
I am a noob. but i want to learn.
I want create a ROM for myself, and like me there must be many user with the same desire of building there own ROM but the problem is lack of information.
I tried many guides but want's successful.
So i request all the Devs to create a Tutorial for porting different ROM to our device, this tutorial should be device specific and OS specific.
There are many Dev who could contribute to this like
 @SuperDroid-BOND, @ibshar, @sagarwep could contribute in guiding the rom porting from MTK6589 device to MTK6577 device.
 @mufti.arfan, @anand_mmx could highlight on porting Lewa ROMs
@Akhilendra Gadde, @Ak****banta on porting Miui ROMs
@Dark4Droid, @khan_frd2002, @jigarmpattani, @dhiarya, @bsuhas and other great dev could help also in their respective field of specialization.
This would be the greatest contribution for our section if we could create a thread like this.
This just a thought and a request.......

Using windows is advised as you need to download a program called notepad++ on it. But you can use Ubuntu too.
First of all, make sure that you have two rom.zips that are
Base
The rom that was originally developed for our canvas 2 . Basically cm roms
Port
The rom that you want to run on our phone. That is developed for other phones. The android version of base and port roms have to be same.
Must have
Notepad++, base rom, port rom
Step 1
After you're done downloading both base and port roms, extract them into two different files and rename them as base and port.
Step 2
Open system folder in the base rom folder and delete
App
Fonts
Framework
Media
Open system folder in the port rom folder and copy
App
Fonts
Framework
Media
Then paste the copied files into system folder of base
Step 3
Open system-etc-permissions in both port and base folders. Delete every permission in base EXCEPT platform and handheld_hardware.
Copy all permission except platform and handheld_hardware and paste the copied files into the permission folder of base rom.
Step 3b (if there is an tweaks in port rom)
Go into system-etc-init.d in both port and base rom folders.
Copy everything from init.d in port EXCEPT banner and paste them into init.d in base
Step 4
Go to META-INF-com-google-android and open updater script using notepad++
(In both port rom and base rom folders)
Delete all the lines that has set perm or setperm recursive in base rom updater script
Copy all the lines that have setperm or setperm recursive in port rom updater script. Paste the copied lines into base rom updater script, where the original setperm lines of base rom was.
Step 5
Save the updater script and zip the contents of base rom.
Step 6
Flash and test
If Rom is having a bootloop then go into lib folder of port Rom and copy these files
Libandroid_runtime.so
Libandroid_servers.so
Libandriod_driod.so

Thanks for the info, but i want devs to develop a device specific Tutorial / guide.
I tried the procedures to port ColorOS ROM from A116 to our device but stuck on boot. i dont known which files do i need to edit to get it boot.

Porting is basically very much same for most of the devices,and there are many threads for that ...

This one is most basic and easy.

I like this idea. This is a great idea. There should be a nice guide which describes the steps, methods, exceptions etc. that are involved in ROM porting.
Maybe a more MTK oriented guide since there are already many generalized porting guides. A guide that acknowledges do's and don'ts, a guide that informs what we can and can't do.
However, this guide should also, preferably, detail on the "why's" and the "why not's" and not just provide a copy-paste tutorial seen in profound quantities throughout xda...
Now, this is a theoretical idea and not possibly/necessarily a one-man job. Therefore, the devs could perhaps collaborate on this hypothetical guide also giving their personal experiences on android development (tips, tricks, pointers, notes and stuff).

How about a guide on porting mtk 6589 Rom to mtk 6577..

All Guide are Some How Same Bro.... You can port MT6589 AOSP easily but other one like color os, sony etc are hard you can only port it by debugging...

[GUIDE]Building Mediatek boot.img{Appending headers}

Guide to Mediatek Building(Guide 2:=boot.img)
A common misconception on XDA is that mediatek devices have boot.img similar to qualcomm.. I'll try to explain why it isn't and how to make one.
Mediatek appends a header to its Ramdisk(initramfs) and its kernel so that the board can figure out that its a ramdisk/kernel. Without these headers the boot.img you build will won't work; If you've been getting bad results when making a boot.img this could be one of the reasons
Requisite
Any Linux based system
the mkimage i've attached in the post
Adding the MediaTek header
A executable named the 'mkimage' is needed for this(attached in post). If you're one of the kernel devs or for the ones who have the mediatek kernel source, this file is present in the kernel_source/mediatek/build/tools/mkimage.
What does it do?
it appends the mediatek header to the first 512 bytes of your ramdisk/kernel
Adding the meditek header
For the kernel,
Code:
mkimage kernel KERNEL > kernel_with_meditek_header
For the ramdisk,
Code:
mkbootfs ./root/ | minigzip >ramdisk.gz
mkimage ramdisk.gz ROOTFS > ramdisk.img
Removing the MediaTek header
If you want to remove header from kernel,
Code:
dd if=kernel of=kernel_without_header bs=1 skip=512
If you want to remove header from ramdisk
Code:
dd if=ramdisk of=ramdisk_without_header bs=1 skip=512
the bs tells dd how many bytes to read and write at a time.
the skip tells it that how many bytes to skip at start. here its 512 since the mediatek header occupies 512bytes. we can use count if you want
Here's how you manually pack boot.img after adding headers
Code:
mkbootimg --kernel zImage_with_header --ramdisk ramdisk_with_header.img -o new_boot.img
You can now use this boot.img to flash to your phone
Modules!!
Modules are very important, Read previous guide(Building kernel) about how to build modules(Guide attached to signature). Modules are very kernel specific and the rom wont boot if you don't push these modules to the /system/lib/modules replacing the ones currently there.
Extra Information!
to delete parts of file from the end of file which is 100 bytes. for example:
Code:
dd if=file of=file1 bs=1 skip=10 count=85
/*count=filesize-startsskip-endskip*/
here,count=100-10-5=85.
Hope this guide helped you.
All questions are welcome in the thread
Regards and Good luck

Nice guide
... but that was already explained on this thread
The thread was for the MT6577, but concerning this issue (and others) its also valid for the other's MT65xx ; MT81xx ; MT83xx SoC's.
Also this thread is the best resource on @xda concerning Mediatek kernel / issues , etc.
But this should help, the users that are new on the "Mediatek" Platform.

Yes, you need to push the modules to your phones since they are kernel specific. To reduce size strip them off of unneeded assembler messages.

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

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.

I dont' know if there's a custom kernel for this device. But you can download the source code form here https://www.nokia.com/phones/en_int/opensource to compile it and add features by yourself.

To compile a kernel from source you can follow this tutorial.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/ultimate-guide-compile-android-kernel-t2871276
There are more threads, this is an example.
The build number in your screenshot (5_180) tells the number of the kernel version you need to download (i want think so ), in this case is the Nokia3_V5.180.tar.bz2 file.

With having a linux environment you can build a kernel from source reading the guides. Adding features is more difficult because the main reason: this device has mediatek SoC.
