Hello devs.i have been on the forum for a while now and have been searching for guidlines on kernel porting. i am trying to port the thunderzap ics kernel for the micromax a110 to my device.my device have no development or source support,.it is of the same SoC as the a110 (mediatek mt6577) so it has sone compatibility.now here is my progress.
i have been able to dump boot and recovery images, port cwm 5.x(quite old), extract the boot.img and zimage. got the initramfs, can read peggy and other related files in the initramfs and i am able to identify most device drivers. now i have the source code for the custom kernel, but i need help locating those drivers from different sources on github, changing neccesary files, finding where to place the drivers and creating some sort of build profile or setup so that i can upgrade the source to newer versions,
thanks

Hi,
I can't move your thread, because you need to read read read before posting questions in the following section. The members there will help, but only after someone has educated themselves as much as possible... There's many guides and tutorials to look through here, and if you get stuck on something after doing your homework, then you can ask for help...

I am wanting to port the latest cyanogenmod to my tablet the 'Amicroe tts' see picture for specs (the pictures what i could find in the book). What I am wanting to know before starting this project I am wanting to know if this is even possible and also if the latest cyanogenmod wont work what version would be best for my specs. Also there are no custom roms for this device that i know of so that is the main reason of wanting to do this.

[Completed] [Q] How to create ROM for a particular device?

Hello Everyone,
I am Ireen. Last few weeks I have been trying to build a custom ROM and I finally did it. But most important and confusing thing is how I flash this ROM to my device. I am not using popular device like HTC or Samsung I am using a Chinese tablet (MTK). So from this step what I have to do to flash this ROM to my device. On some tutorial they suggest to download kernel source code from HTC or Samsung website. If I manage kernel source code for this device then how I marge it with my ROM and prepare my rom perfect for flashing into my device.?
I just need some guide lines. Any tutorial or thread link will help.
Thanks in advance.
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. I'd suggest you start by having a look at the following section of XDA:
Android Development and Hacking
Within it you'll find some very helpful sub-forums, in particular:
Miscellaneous Android Development - For ROMs, kernels, tools and scripts only (devices that do not have a forum on XDA)
And if you need to ask any questions regarding your development you can do so here:

[Completed] Kernel Modem

Hi guys, I want to ask a question.
I want to make a custom kernel for my device. There are no exsisiting custom kernel, but there are custom kernels for a very similar device. The only difference is their modem/baseband. I have the source of the stock kernel. I want to ask how can I merge the modem within the kernels.(files to replace, lines to change, etc.)
Thanks.
