CUstom ROM - Ascend Mate 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

no custom rom available? sucks

However, what makes KangVIP.

sucks
+1 on sucks :/
Hope soon some good devs will make us happy. The stock UI often gets crappy and slow, needs reboot.

Hello Guys,
I'm also very dissapointed about the availability of custom roms.
I'm not a rom developer but I have some programming skills (websites etc) maybe we can do something with other members to bake or own custom ROM instead of waiting for a developer with a Mate 7.
Who like my idea? Just want to check it.

Do not question. As it is difficult to implement. Is little information on the structure. The Chinese forums can it not look at the cards. Have the contact already tried, unfortunately no answer.

[Q] MIUI for Bravo/Desire exper opinion

Hi guys
hope this first post of mine will not upset anybody ... i did as much research was possible before asking this but maybe my search skills are limited.
i will try to be short
1. can someone expert put light in MIUI ROMS jungle i understand that is eVeek, XJ.., MIUI AU, MIUI cn ? Can those be put in a table with versions and maybe XDA link to forums?
2. What is N1 table? if i install this i will be stuk with miui or i can flash other like Ginger Villan, CM7.. etc
3. Is there an advantage in stability/speed if i have 3 or for partition? with many partitions can I experiment issues with other roms than MIUI?
I am from east europe, but I allways use EN as phone language. I am not interested in swype , word suggestion ..etc
Thank you if an expert can spare 3 min to answer this. I wanted to ask on MIUI thread but impossible for noobs to do so. Good protection i guess
Have a nice weekend,
Alex
Hi man, i think you need to look for the latest Miui build, if i'm not mistaked until today it is 1.4.8. and than you need to flash a gingerbread kernel....but i am coming from vibrant so i am not sure about the desire...but i asssume it is mostly the same progress.
Anyone with desire?

[Q] How to check custom ROM compatibility?

How can I check if a custom ROM is compatible with my phone?
Is it only compatible on a certain phone?
I have a Cherry Mobile Burst, And sadly I can't find a custom ROM for my unit. So I'm asking if there are other custom ROM that I can use??
Thanks!!! :crying:
The only real way is to make sure it specifically states that it IS for your device. If you cannot find one for your device, then you can try to develop one. Even the identical chipset will have different hardware that make the ROMs incompatible.
If it does not say "This ROM is for XXX device" then don't flash it, that's my advice.

I doubt it because there is a lot of work that goes into developing a ROM, like hours and hours, so usually phones that not many people have don't really get it, because why develop for a phone that 20 people own when you can develop for one that thousands or millions of people own.
Keep looking, there may a custom ROM out there, does your phone go by another name? Like an actual model number?

There are no developers that own that device, if they did then there would be ROMs for it.
There is no point in asking or waiting for developers to make ROMs for this device because it will never happen.
You've got a low end device that no one is interested in developing for, you'll have to learn to do it yourself if you want ROMs, that's the only way you'll get ROMS for this device.

[Q] Custom rom

Hi guys!
I have been really interesting on creating a custom rom, and I don't know how to do it, I've read a lot of tutorials but I just can't do it.
I was hoping that you could give me a tutorial, or even open a thread to help who is trying to build a rom and doesn't know how to do it.
That would be extremelly good for ace plus, because we would get more developers to our phone, and who knows they could get really good at developing, that they could help devs to fix the bugs on their roms.
Best regards,
kaeOzZ

LineageOS for BLU Pure XL - Discussion/Q&A

LineageOS for BLU Pure XL (MT6795)
Discussion and Q&A Thread​
This is a Project Thread for LineageOS for BLU Pure XL. Project files and releases are hosted on SourceForge's servers.
Here you can ask for help and get fresh info about development status.
This project focuses on getting working LineageOS 14.1 for our phone. This would also work for other clones like Allview X2 Soul Xtreme, Condor Allure A100 and Gionee Elife E8.
LineageOS for BLU Pure XL - SourceForge
Here you will be able to review (Git integration) and download files. Also, there I will upload some screenshots. When the project reaches "Alpha" status I will create a development thread for the ROM itself in the Android Development section.
There you are also able to download the latest working TWRP 3.1.0-0 (the same is in this thread).

Hows the fight going? I'd REALLY like to see a custom ROM booting on this phone before it becomes so old it doesn't matter anymore...
Keep us informed on the progress Belmolx, we appreciate your hard work!
Hey I have a Blu Life One X2. I am a developer and have made some really good findings. I also built some tools (autoroot, toolkit, etc..).
We have an unofficial website here: http://www.blox2.com
I made my own rom, and so have a few others. We based it off the stock roms, as we cant get any other rom booting (except CM13; lots of bugs)
If possible, can you assist us? Like:
1. Did you port lineage or compile it? What guides did you follow (links please)?
2. Have you compiled the kernel? Our kernel will not boot no matter what (compiled with a ton of different toolchains too);
3. What device do you use for porting?
4. Do you have a /system RW crash (crash when mounting system as RW)?
Thanks!

hello @bemolx thanks thanks thanks sooooooo much for youur TWRP
I have the Allview X2 Soul Xtreme with LL 5.1 and i want to know if is possible to install thie lineage rom or a custom kernel.
I would like to optimize this phone can you help me?
What do you suggest me?
thaks so much
Looks promising, I'll wait ...
Thanks for the effort
@bemolx has forgotten about this device and has moved on to other devices and in the process has left all of us hanging he pays more attention on other devices just look at his profile @bemolx has made huge promises but has lied to us uploading half ass things which are buggy and literally **** he's forgotten about all of us who were looking towards him but he doesnt care I understand that he's not our slave and doesnt have to do anything but making false promises and playing with the feelings of other people is also not a good thing

I understand your disappointment.
However, it's not that simple as you may think. As a student I have to focus on school subjects and it really takes pretty much my whole free time. Also, this school year I have to defend my diploma thesis and this is my main task to focus on as for now.
You've mentioned my work on other devices too - yeah, I have couple of them to play with. But it doesn't mean I forgot about Pure XL. Other devices are just easier to deal with than this freaking Chinese clone. All of them have been maintained at the same time. Source code is always available on my GitHub profile, wanna try yourself?
If I have been paid (don't mind, just an example) $1000, I would have made a working custom ROM in a week! But I'm not and this is only my intention to do so. As for a freelancer dev it's not that important thing. I promised the custom ROM, you'll see it, in the future, not now.
Anyway, what the hell you've been expecting with MTK-based Chinese clone from the company that doesn't care about their customers and has made one, maybe two OTAs...?
You´re completely right. We thank you for your time and effort put to make this phone be more awesome. BLU is the big liar here. I don´t even use my phone as a Blu Pure XL, instead I use the X2Xtreme rom fully.
Take your time @bemolx and don´t mind what non-developers say in the forums, they´re always asking for ETAs and to make things better just for their daily use and dont know the effort put behind every custom thing made.
I really hope you succeed on your thesis (good) cheers man!

Well for now focus on finishing the university, we'll be rooting for you and maybe in the near future or so after you finish with all, when you have free time and the spirit to start working on a custom rom for this phone we'll see you post an update. I personally would love if you could make a version of android that is the latest like Oreo is now...until then I hope you're having a great day.
Info
Any update on the progress of this rom?????
Hi guys,
I'm working on implementing CLT for Pure XL to get a booting GSI Treble image. I'd say it will be a semi-Treble ROM rather that pure Treble or custom ROM. I hope I will post some update soon.
Who knows, maybe even Pie will boot, who knows..
Cheers
Can't wait to test this rom on my Allview X2 Soul Xtreme and of course give you feedback.
I don't know if it's because of the stock rom or not, but the phone just freezes from time to time(making me force restart the phone), especially when it get hot. Maybe... hopefully this rom will help with that.
Besides, being unable to update from 5.1.1 makes it that some apps are incompatible which sucks.
Thank you bemolx for all the time and effort put into this rom and we all wish you the best.

Android Go :V

There is still any dev for janice? :silly:
As some of u know, Google is going to release Android Go based on 8.0/8.1 which should work fine on 0,5GB devices, maybe second life for janice?
Official site
I think Janice still have some devs on, there was someone working on a 7.1 ROM, maybe we can have hope

I understand, don't worry. :good:
I am disposed to take part in the collect, considering how much as now an s advance costs, wouldn't be so hard to get quickly the money and with very little effort for all.
I think that is a good idea and can really give a new life to our device.
Obviously a spare s advance of a willing and generous user would be the best thing we can hope in, but seems really hard to happen, however, my hope isn't died yet
Maybe on weekend i'll look into what changes are needed to run atleast nougat on it (from source), if this'll work then we'll think about Oreo xD

If you're really interested, I'd suggest to look at the Oreo rom of Chrono:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-ace/ace-2-develop/rom-lineageos-15-0-t3678722
and to look at the Chrono Kernel (compatible with janice but with some bugs):
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...tom-kernel-t2793420/post74179403#post74179403
Ace II has the same chip of S Advance (with some code differences) and the dev is very helpful to explain how it works.
Two guys in the same project would be better than one guy on a single project.
As far as I know @sm_adil doesn't reply to any PM and Epirex is busy on his Moto phone.

Yes I agree two or more dev contributing to the same project will be good!!
However if you consider me as fully fledged dev you're wrong I'm more of web developer than android or java. I did build couple of kernel's for testing my skills but than again they were not so stable and I didn't had time to debug it!!
So yeah if get the time I do want to build a ROM for Janice :fingers-crossed:
I've got a Janice right here that I don't use. I'm actually looking right now for a way to root it and install whatever superior than the Gingerbread ROM it currently has, but the point is that it's available for testing purposes. Btw, is it possible to leave a phone number here?

Hi Isaak,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S Advance. I have been looking if anyone developing Android Go support for it. Found your post on the thread, https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s-advance/general/android-t3714953/page2
I want to learn how roms are built and I would like to support in developing Android Go rom for S Advance, if possible. Can you please guide me where I can start?
As per my experience, I have built a modified linux kernel with some modified device drivers and was able to boot it with a debian root filesystem on Freescale SabreLite board. But never built an android rom earlier.
Thanks

You could start from one of these tutorials:
https://nathanpfry.com/category/android/
I'm not good at compiling, I tried it and didn't like it. So I can't help you more than that.
For this reason, with the help of some xda users, I have donated a S Advance to @ChronoMonochrome.
Currently he's actively developing a new kernel and a new rom in this section:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s-advance/development
I think we could expect more roms with higher android versions, so your feedback is important.
