[Completed] Looking for a guide on custom roms or for porting roms. - XDA Assist

I own OPT. I am currently setting up to build CM for OPT using sources from few awesome devs who have finally made a bootable CM13.
Right now i am looking for a guide which can show me how to build other custom roms using those CM sources or other available sources.
Like if i want to build slim rom. There is no slimrom source based on marshmallow. So a guide regarding this.
I tried searching but all guides that i found were on how to build roms which were already available.

I haven't done it before but i'm a pretty expert at porting apps and theming stuff so i can try building a cyanogenmod rom for this device
but all i need is some testers.
My dad has this phone and it's very laggy so i know why people want a custom ROM
P.S.:My dad won't allow me to root his phone
so i need some testers and some more developers will start my work next month stay tuned and pm me if you want to join hands!
yes Bro I Am Ready For Testing Your Rom Just Build It

Thanks for help. If you build your ROM, I'll test it on my S7390 - I should only change model number in build.prop and some info in updater-script. S7390 is just the same as S7392 - the only difference is the fact S7392 has 2 sim card slots - that's why its name is duos.
PS. I'm counting on you, I think you can do it!
i am up with testing and developing
I want to test your ROM as soon as you have it

Seeing that there is no kernel source, you need to build your own kernel, look at the HTC One (M7) L Preview rom and you will see that a heavily modified kernel was used to make it boot. Anyway, you would have been better off building it from source generally, AOSP. If a kernel dev was to help me with a working kernel, then I would gladly build Lollipop for the One S

[Q] Are Cyanogen devices tree compatible with AOSP ?

Hi all,
I've a question for you guys.
I've a SG3 (i9300), I'd like to know if using the cyanogen device tree for my device (located here) is possible to build AOSP source code.
if yes, then it looks like that would be possible to compile Lollipop AOSP for my device.. am I right ?
Thank you very much.
Cyanogen IS AOSP... Lol. Its AOSP with added features. If that's not an Android 5.0 lollipop kernel source, then it won't boot out of the box. Your best bet would be to get some Android 4.4 kernel source and do ramdisk edits and what not needed to get an Android 5.0 ROM booting. Alternatively, if your device is CM supported, I know they were talking about releasing CM12 soon, you could just hold out to see if your device is supported. Outside of CM, many custom ROMs (AOKP, Pacman, etc.) Take it upon themselves to release ROMs as well. Example: PACman had a 4.4 custom ROM out and in circulation, even before cyanogenmod, so u never know!

Hello, thanks for your answer.
I'd like to know this only for learning purpose, I'm not going to compile the AOSP
What I don't understand, is why adding the device tree to the lollipop AOSP is not sufficient to boot out of the box, can you please explain this in details ? Many thanks.

[Q] Question about ROM building.

Hi,
I have some questions about building ROM.
I'm new to all these stuffs but I'm kinda used to porting ROMs. I'm trying to build SlimRom for my MTK device. My question is where do I get a guide on how to build a ROM from source code or MTK devices. Or anyone out there ready to help?
Thank you.
