Hey, I have a Micromax Canvas 2 Colors phone. And there are very less developers or porters for this phone. I've seen a couple of threads in XDA about porting roms and stuff. I wanted to know is it possible for me to port a rom from Moto G II Gen to my phone? Every spec is the same except for the processor. I've got a Mediatek one while the Moto G has a qualcomm one. Both are Cortex - A7. I'm new to XDA as well as porting and stuff. Any help will be really appreciated.
I do not recommend trying this if you`re not experienced. However a good place to start is here
That is full of information you can check out
Good luck

Hello all,
does somebody is working on a CM ROM for the Acer Liquid Gallant duo E350 (duo for dual SIM) ?
It's an incredible and cheap middle class phone, under ICS 4.0.3 with a MTK MT6575 single core processor. The OS is very closed to the original one with a very thin overlay from Acer.
The modaco team has already rooted it, BUT ... I'd love to use a Cyanogenmod ROM for him, it seems that your ROMs are the best
We are a lot of happy owners which are waiting for it, and we are just answering if it could come a day, .... or not.

Hey guys. I have done some porting ( im a new to this stuff btw ), I tried to port the CyanogenMod from HTC Desire X because that phone has the same hardware as my ZTE Blade III Pro ( i mean Chipset, CPU clock GPU and same screen resolution with the same size and same pixel density)
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=5425&idPhone2=4951 there's a comparison. The CyanogenMod rom from HTC is unnofficiall but when i flashed the rom via CWM it got bootloop. It didn't brick my device which means some is going good but still there are problems. I followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957219 , i know that there's just copy-paste on this guide but i'd be thankfull to those who would help me. If you need some more info just tell me.

I am using a windows pc 7. i found outdated material, unfinished tutorials and limited source for my sony xperia E dual c1604. the phone is cheap, but with its snapdragon msm7227a , its supposed to compute instructions faster. would any developers be kind enough to give me guidance or point me in the right direction.

There are many different rooting methods available.
Here is one tutorial for rooting nearly every MTK device: Android Development and Hacking > Android General > [TUT] MTK Root and CWM Guide (Really Easy)
Hope it works for you too.
If you have questions, please ask in the rooting thread.
Or in the Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum.
There are many pros and cons about rooting ... you may have a look at this thread: What the benefit for rooting a tablet? ... although it's about another device.
How can I get lollipop or kitkat or cyanogenmod 12 or 11 on my Blu Studio 5.0sii?

It has a MT6582M and runs JB. There are other phones that use MT6582M and run KK and LP like ZTE Blade L3. Please can someone help me! I don't want to brick my device im not sure how it works. Can the kernel of another phone be used on mines if they both have the same MT6582M chipset?
Help me please!
Hi,
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist.
There's nothing else to say...
Chances are you will have to be patient or you can develop your own custom rom.
