Hi !
Elephone want help of developpers, for working on android source code for recents MTK socs, because Mediatek source isn't open to the public, and Elephone want port Android 5.1 on them devices (and CyanogenMod, Miui...), and release the source code for the public.
Elephone said:
Glad to know Android 5.1 is released. We'd like our customers to get the lastest update on their phones. However, we understand that there're a few developers working on MTK devices because the source isn't open to the public. It's tough to work it out without the source code.
So we want some of the best developers to help us out, and the payment will be substaintial and favorable.
We need Android 5.1 ROM for the following Soc:
MTK 6582
MTK 6592
MTK 6732
MTK 6735
MTK 6752
MTK 6753
MTK 6795
If you dare to accept the challenge, please tell me your experience and send me the works you've done before. Email: [email protected] or send me PM.
If you don't know ROM development, you could still help us spread the message in the Android developer forums, so that you may experience Android 5.1 ASAP.

The complete kernel source, along with all the drivers are available through Wiki CINK 5, a french company. The Android sources are still at large so no dual SIM support, but with this kernel source, Cyanogenmod or AOSP can be ported to mt6589 based drivers ? Can a dev do it, (with only support for a single SIM alas)
The CM source tree is huge, I am downloading, it's gonna take days, can anyone else please look into this ...

Hello, am was wondering if there is a Custom Rom for Android Phones with the 1.5GHz MediaTek MT6589T processor.
I use a Tecno Phantom A3.The device shipped with 1gb of ram and Android 4.22.Am sick of Jellybean.I tried intalling cyanogenmod but it says my Device is not supported.Please help.Thanks
Hi @donniemceduns
I can't seem to find a 4.4 Build that is compatible with your device specifically. I have however found a thread which has Kernels compatible with Kitkat. ( Kernel 3.4.67 ) - Source is also released. Also found this: complete MTK6589 source code is released!.
I would think that you could build your own Cyanogenmod 11 using these guides:
[GUIDE] Compile CM from source, source basics & FAQ - Very detailed
How To Port CyanogenMod Android To Your Own Device
On a side note, it is definitely possible, 4.4 was released for the following MTK6589(T) devices:
Lenovo S939 = MT6592 (Received)
Lenovo S930 = MT6582 (Received)
Lenovo S820 = MT6589 (Received)
Lenovo S920 = MT6589 (Received)
Lenovo S960 = MT6589T (Received)
Cheers!
I, on behalf of the owners of the Karbonn Titanium S5 Plus device, based on the Mediatek MT6582 chipset, need some help in building a kernel source (not a kernel from source) for this device. I have a few fully working custom ROMs, a Github Account, some forked repositories of other devices having the same chipset but minorly-different hardware, and some time. What do I have to do to get to building a kernel source for this device?
It is a dual-sim device, based on the Mediatek MT6582 SoC, having a prebuilt kernel version 3.4.5, with no kernel sources even for its clone, running Android Jelly Bean 4.2.2 . @superdragonpt had created some new kernels for some devices(eg. the Wiko Darkmoon, MT6582, he created a new kernel source and a new kernel) having no previous kernel sources, how can I do the same for my device?
The Android One devices (Indian) are based on the same chipset, and have the same features. But, the difference is that they have a smaller 5MP rear camera and a locked bootloader, while ours has a 8MP rear camera and an unlocked bootloader. Can their sources be used for my device?
Also, after creating a Kernel source, how can I create an AOSP source for this device? Please help me out with this.
Hi there,
All things about your device is in this thread:
[ROMs and Recoveries] Karbonn Titanium S5 Plus/ S5 + - All Things And Dev.
Take a close look there and see if you find an answer there.
Good luck
I know, I started that thread.
It contains many Roms for my device, but there are no updates for them because it does not have a kernel source. There are no new kernels for the device because a kernel source was not released by the company. So, I asked it here.
I forked the kernel source from another device having the same soc, but I wanted to know how to create one specifically for my device.
One more thing. How do you build a kernel from a kernel source? Please help me out. Thanks in advance.
You can learn more about kernel development here:
[GUIDE] Build Your Own Android Kernel{Easiest and Fastest Way] [Using The NDK]
[TUTORIAL][VIDEO]Build your own Android kernel
I suggest reading a couple of the relevant kernel tutorials found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/chef-central/android
Good luck
