Hey Everybody,
Has anybody tried using Android Kitchen by dsixda to port roms to our device, the one sv?
According to the Kitchen's thread it was built for Htc devices....
I am new to porting and porting to htc devices seems much harder than porting to Samsung devices?!
I have tried using ViperSv.. It's horrible.. I mean it's really laggy .. I am currently using the stock rom with many Xposed mods.
What exactly do you expect it should do for you?
Porting other roms will need either very much resizing to resolution of SV or finding drivers/files that work with its hardware (in simple words).
In both cases the kitchen will not do the work for you.
I thought you left! Welcome Back
I thought porting is just copying kernel files/drivers and using a rom from a device with the same res. #noobinglikeaboss

Well, if it would be that easy....
I don't want to discourage you, but at least some basic knowledge is needed.
I tried to port Desire 500 dump, but it didn't even boot, so i think you need a good guide, to do that.
Awww.. Well I thought it would be easy since Cm gets ported instantly to every new device

Hi everyone! We are currently in the middle of porting the MIUI ROM to our mdpi devices (g1, hero, magic).
We have successfully ported ALL of the pngs in all of the apks to be compatible with our devices. This was a huge undertaking and it was keeping a lot of devs from wanting to get involved. Now that this big "hinderance" is out of the way, I'm hoping some talented devs will be willing to get involved.
I have posted all the semi-ported apks (by semi-ported, I mean the images are all mdpi now) in a zip file that can be downloaded by any devs who are willing to help get the MIUI rom ported to our devices. If you'd like to download the MIUI mdpi apks, you can visit our thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=858935
I don't have any dev skills, so I can't help beyond what I've already done. It is officially now in the hands of the community to take the next necessary steps to a full MIUI port. I hope that our two groups (hero and g1) can cooperate in making this happen!
That is my reason for posting here.
Hope we can get this thing working!

Question is how are you gonna get it to boot on our arm6 ? with out GPU and all ><
Could you please post a video on YOUTUBE showing how you flashed SPL 1.33.0013d SPL and 2.22.28.25 Radio. It might be very simple for you but for many noobies and mid-level flashers ,its quite troublesome. The links and everything else is there on the web but flashing in fastboot has been challenging. Flashing through rom manager has not worked after several tries. Kindly help in anyway you can. Thanks in advance. My email is [email protected].............

what do you mean? they( official android developers ) say gingerbread should run faster than a phone running froyo
plus hes actually going to start on it pretty soon according to some tweets...
but ontopic a port miui would be pretty cool to mess around with.
The majority of APKs don't work
I really want a MIUI port :|

Not sure thats why, i think its mostly lack of will Lox already submited the Hero code for instance. For dream/sapphire wouldn't be much harder, either way, it dosen't matter all that much, we will have builds based on the AOSP code.
So I take it this has been forgotten and moved beyond? MIUI would be really nice... /sigh
any devs working on this.. can someone explain to me if this is possible or not and why?
Hi guys im new to XDA but not new to Android development i used to have Cricket service (which sucked) and signed with T-Mobile and got this phone for free After spending all week reading all these threads i can say im one of the lucky ones since i got the good chip and good screen and rooted my phone and im running Sysnthetic_Aospx great rom btw. Any other good roms that i should try? Anywho im rooted and this isnt another "which rom is better" im actually a developer and i want to get my hands dirty and try and compile kernels any guides out there for me to start compiling and building my kernel environment?
I know my way around developing roms and wanted to know what developers develop for this device im willing to give you guys a hand if u need it or just be a tester.
Btw my name is Mr. Iffy ill try to help when i can hopefully one of the devs can help me with an Ice cream kernel to develop for this device. If someone can also tell me what devs are here i only see like 4 of them Synthetic and elginsk8r and awesome and cnote. Thanks guys hopefully i can be more of help around here.
Welcome! It's great to have another dev among us. Unfortunately, we have lost many of our devs to other devices, but a few talented ones remain. Hopefully you and the remaining devs will be able to bring a fully functional ICS Sense ROM to our little community.
Again, welcome!

Kernels are difficult, i dont really know enoguh to teach you but there are plenty of guides. It tooks me 3 hours to compile 10% of a kernel and the process failed due to one of the files. We should collarborate.

The OP in that thread says:
4. No ports based on my ROM zip file, manifest.xml will be updated regularly and feel free to compile from source
Start elsewhere, unless you want to learn to compile. Come back with a ROM you're allowed to port and post it here. Then we'll help you

trying to port a rom also still working on it
Porting can be easy or hard depending on many factors.
First of all, if the rom type the you are porting (AOSP, Sense, AOKP, CM7/9/10, Touchwiz, Motoblur, etc.) already has similarly typed ROMs for your device your life will be much easier as you will have a base to work with.
The general idea for an easy port is to use the boot.img, keylayout, modules, and many libs from a similar ROM that already exists for your device. Also, the build.prop and updater-script will need edited (updater-script for most, but not all, ROMs).
If you are on an HTC device and you go grab a Touchwiz ROM to port, you're most likely going to have a bad time. Start with something that exists in large quantities for your device. AOSP ROMs are usually a great place to start.

I am wanting to try my hands at porting Sense ROMs for my Shift and was wondering what I should use as the base. I found a thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=934313, that has the stock ROM from the Shift that has just been rooted and nothing else. Is this what I should use as the base for it and then find another Sense ROM, ideally 3.0 or above, and use it as the porting ROM? Thanks for any answers, I am hoping to become a help to those who are wanting to get into this field by not being afraid to ask these questions, because I myself would love to become a dev and figured porting would be the best jumping off point and then working my way into building whole custom ROMs.
This would be an updated base for Gingerbread Sense ROMS http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1873472
To port Sense 3.6+ ICS is going to be some work. Porting Sense is more involved than just moving a few files and getting it to boot. It's honestly easier to use the dsixda kitchen to turn a system.img and boot.img into a ROM than it is to port. I've been messing with Android for a good year now and I've just learned to port aosp, and Def can't port Sense.

So most of the "porting tutorials" I have seen out there are full of bs and not as easy as they make it out to be then lol. I have read through ones using dsixda kitchen, I will go that route, thanks for the advice and answer.

In all honesty they were that easy, but with every new version of android comes new files, or renamed files ect.
Porting aosp is as easy as the guides, megaghost is who started teaching me how to port aosp, then a couple guides later I noticed that there were libs I never moved over from port to base.
Dsixda kitchen is just a tool for me, I use it to sign apks when I don't decompile them in android-utility also if I'm leaving the house and need something deodexed, or to simply cook an ota into a flashable.

But there is always something with AOSP ports that you have to go back and fix and that is not always easy... In fact it is sometimes mind numbingly difficult to get some stuff to work. Trial and error, and don't be afraid to ask questions if you get stuck.
Yes just post up. People in the Shift forum are more than willing to help each other out
Just found this tablet and have started using it!
Although old, it can run things smoothly.
My question is how do i make an oreo rom for it to bring new life in it??
I will have to make it or can i port it from other devices like Nexus 7?
For porting roms, u require a base rom and a port rom(u must have done some research, but still).. for oreo, its a clear no... I think this forum will be dead soon, you can try porting nougat... But it will be difficult as hell! Theres a lot of guides on xda just search for them... You could try king babasula's porting tool, once you have deodexed the roms. Btw, the most difficult thing is to port the boot.img, but its not impossible (gonna take a month or two, but still no guarantees)... Anyways we still have good nougat roms here... Known bugs cant be fixed without modifying the source but andi is gone, everyone is gone... Nothing can be done now, goodbye GTab2!
