iphone 4 mt6575 need help porting cyanogen mod

hello guys, I got this iphone 4s clone mt6575. since then, ive always wanted to get a new rom for this phone. i've worked on porting some CyanogenMod 7 on this device but it doesnt boot. please help me im just a newbie and im sorry for my bad english:crying:
this is the backup of my stock rom
www dropbox com/s/mma4wgc1n6uw1jr/NastyJeax_build.V1.0.0.rar
dont be bothered with the build coz i made some modifications of this. lol
hope you guys help me with this. PLEASE.
you cannot get cyanogenmod running on your particular device at this time. a cyanogenmod based on this chipset is in work, but is barely working yet. (just SystemUI starts, everything will FC).
ouch.. . that doesn't sound good.. anyway, can u give me links to the cyanogenmod development of this chipset? please

They are gonna need it as without the full and proper kernel source code for each and every device that runs that chip it will never work completely. This is the reason CM doesnt support cheap knock offs.

I had CM10 on my Jiayu G3 with the 6577. I'm sure it could be done someday. It actually ran quite smoothly. It just had a few bugs with some apps and had a battery drain but was otherwise rock solid.
think its possible for this chipset (MT6575) coz i found some posts proving that they have sucesfully ported CM7 and i actually tried to port using thier ROM with no luck at all. why my system apps starting with "BR" like BRMms.apk?

[Help] Port Color OS for Huawei G700-U10

I am using Huawei G700-U10. I got a fully working Color OS of "Micromax A110Q" which have the same chipset and GPU of my device. and i have my Stock rom too. Can i port the rom to my device? The rom is jelly bean 4.2.2. If it is possible to port someone please help me.
If the micromax is a clone of your phone or vice versa you can port the ROM grabbing some files from your stock ROM to the custom ROM you can use this method also if the phone are very similar. Otherwise if the phones aren't similar you need the source of your phone and the source of the ROM to port.

Thanks for your help. i got many ways to port rom for MTK devices from many sites i tried all of them but it stuck at the starting logo or at the boot animation. I realy like color OS. I found one ported rom which is perfectly working on my device But it shows
"com.phone.apk force close" error while incoming call. But it happens only if i sync google contacts otherwise no problem. Do u have any idea how to fix it?

You can try to change the phone apk in the ROM with another phone apk, for exemple from your stock ROM

Stock Rom SystemUI on CyanogenMod

Hey xda comunity. First of all, sorry for my english. I'm Peruvian, and spanish is my main language. Second, i was thinking of getting CyanogenMod 12 on this device, because is my daily driver and since I have the 8GB variant, android 6.0+ runs really bad. But I wanted to know (more like a curiosity) if i could use the lollipop stock rom system ui on the custom rom. And if not, is there any way to port it? Thanks in advance!

well actually you cannot use system ui app of another rom in some another rom because resources are located in different places and if you try to do so you will just make your device crash everytime you boot it

Custom Rom Deveopment for the Lenovo P2

Hello everyone, I got this device about two months ago and am going to start trying to port over some roms from the redmi note 4.
I'v noticed that ROM development has been very slow recently, and even though I'm still a student its the holidays and I want this device to have a better future.
Here is the discord server for the P2 development and general chat.
https://discord.gg/K28XqCU
These devices have similar specs, which is one of the main reasons why I am trying to port roms from the redmi note 4 and not some other device.
I'm going to study more about custom roms, and if I may not be successful in porting one all the p2 community should give it a go as well. Everyone seems to be asking for roms and not many people bother to build/compile them.
I'll post any I find working on here as I go, and if anyone has advice/suggestions I'd be happy to take them, being new to custom roms and all.
If you guys could inform me about other devices with same cpu, screen resolution and camera specs that'd be great.
Currently the base rom I'm working on is AOSP extended v5 and the port rom is lineage os 15. I'v managed to port the boot.img over so far.
If anyone is interested on carrying on or continuing, all files will be uploaded on mega. You'll need android kitchen and other basics to continue development.
Make sure you have a device with unlocked bootloader, twrp recovery and a nanodroid backup in case anything goes wrong.
I am NOT responsible for any bricked devices, ect but I will try to help.

Please do tell me if I'm doing anything wrong, as I am in no means a expert at this, just another p2 user wanting to give our devices a new life.
Thanks,

Wish you a best of luck, just make it happenāœŒ
Haha thanks. Any advice/ things I should watch out for?
With you mate
I too was thinking of porting from Redmi note 4.
Could you kindly share the methods of porting. I am a noob in custom ROM porting.
Also suggestions on which roms to be ported.

I'm currently attempting to port Lineage OS 15 from Redmi note 4, with base rom as AOSP Extended.
I'v ported the boot image over but can't find the "system" folder. If anyone would help with this it would be appreciated.
Thanks,
B50Corei5
Hopefully we can kick this thing off and get some other people involved, that way rom development for the p2 will speed up lots.
I myself am a "noob" at custom rom-ming, trying to follow youtube tutorials for porting roms. If anyone else with a bit more experience jumps on,
we should be able to get this finished quicker.
Let's do our best

Requesting help from experienced developers in finishing the ROM.
BTW are you using highwaystar's lineage os as base.

I'm probably messing up trying to port lineage os 15 while using AOSP extended v5.0 as base,
however you have to port roms that are the same os as your base.
You can't port a 8.0 rom with a 7.1.2 base.
Let's give a shot.
Don't expect for expert developer, because he/she can be already busy

Haha, thanks. I created a discord channel for it, link is all the way at start of thread.
Anyone willing to contribute can do so, I'll post updates on here as we go, don't expect
anything too soon though.
It is easy to get system dump and modify it cuz most of the files can be replaced easily by using the base rom.
Do you have any idea of creating update script and creating the final dat package? In my opinion this is the tough section i think.

Hmm. I just started developing roms so I'll look into it. It does look quite complicated. If you haven't already, go ahead and join the p2
development discord as it'll be easier to comunicate.
