never try to install other phones firnwares
every phone has a specific hardware and software.
never try to install other phones fiwares, it may cause your device dead or sth. if you are a programmer edit your own firmware.
if you want gingerbread rom go through cianogenmod7 or kyrillos10.
those two roms are in alpha stage but stable.

porting..

It would be possible, but it's harder than porting it from source.

I said it is impossible because it is VERY difficult, not really impossible.
However ther will not be any significant improvement to our GB stage:
1) When you port a rom you will need at least to replace original drivers with your device ones => If the driver for GB is still not ready that particular feature will not work even if it used to in the original rom (ie: b/w preview in camera in CM7)
2) Performances will be surely lower compairing to a rom that was compiled from source
At last i suggest not to ask developers to start porting a rom because they are pretty busy with lots of projects right now.

iphone 4 mt6575 need help porting cyanogen mod

hello guys, I got this iphone 4s clone mt6575. since then, ive always wanted to get a new rom for this phone. i've worked on porting some CyanogenMod 7 on this device but it doesnt boot. please help me im just a newbie and im sorry for my bad english:crying:
this is the backup of my stock rom
www dropbox com/s/mma4wgc1n6uw1jr/NastyJeax_build.V1.0.0.rar
dont be bothered with the build coz i made some modifications of this. lol
hope you guys help me with this. PLEASE.

you cannot get cyanogenmod running on your particular device at this time. a cyanogenmod based on this chipset is in work, but is barely working yet. (just SystemUI starts, everything will FC).

ouch.. . that doesn't sound good.. anyway, can u give me links to the cyanogenmod development of this chipset? please

They are gonna need it as without the full and proper kernel source code for each and every device that runs that chip it will never work completely. This is the reason CM doesnt support cheap knock offs.

I had CM10 on my Jiayu G3 with the 6577. I'm sure it could be done someday. It actually ran quite smoothly. It just had a few bugs with some apps and had a battery drain but was otherwise rock solid.

think its possible for this chipset (MT6575) coz i found some posts proving that they have sucesfully ported CM7 and i actually tried to port using thier ROM with no luck at all. why my system apps starting with "BR" like BRMms.apk?

"CM is going to make official rom."
not CM team,but we push a request.., rohan is the reviewer aka maintainer, everybody can contribute to it, and rohan review it.
no updates??, hey man i am student , and this is just for a hobby
"im searching every day for new rom for mi4i specially android N."
please, i know you like to use or test a new rom, but remember to read the thread...
all bugs is remain the same
i guess you're not read the thread..., all source (tree, kernel , and vendor) came from ferrari-dev-team github repo
i will say
sensor and bluetooth will not working at CM official build
to be honest, somebody push a request to CM official ... and didn't know we made a dirty changes at msm8916-common,this is the reason sensor and bluetooth works in unofficial build ... ,
back to topic
mokee just Copy and paste ferrari device tree from CyanogenMod repo, (with unworking sensor and bluetooth)
we're working on it
the chellenge is, we're not allowed to modify msm8916-common
so we must load sensor at init.target.rc
i already did an attempt( more than 10), and the results is "nothing"

Flash and try for yourself. Most all can be a daily driver. You have to decide for yourself.

I'm using DU from January & never get a single force close. Yes it has less customization then other Roms but most stable.

Good Morning .... first of all y This thread there is also a thread name " Daily Driver rom " where u will find details regarding the N based rom as per user views and Y according to them the particular rom is best. U could have checked that .... In my opinion Pure Nexus Osprey is the Best cz it gives u the stock nexus Experience and it Also smooth and fast with good battery back , no FC and Good point about this rom That it has lot of options for customisations . U can give it a try ... But every one has different opinion so better is Try it ur self ... Happy Flashing and dont take my words as offense ok im not meant to Hurt ur feelings Bro

Custom Rom Deveopment for the Lenovo P2

Hello everyone, I got this device about two months ago and am going to start trying to port over some roms from the redmi note 4.
I'v noticed that ROM development has been very slow recently, and even though I'm still a student its the holidays and I want this device to have a better future.
Here is the discord server for the P2 development and general chat.
https://discord.gg/K28XqCU
These devices have similar specs, which is one of the main reasons why I am trying to port roms from the redmi note 4 and not some other device.
I'm going to study more about custom roms, and if I may not be successful in porting one all the p2 community should give it a go as well. Everyone seems to be asking for roms and not many people bother to build/compile them.
I'll post any I find working on here as I go, and if anyone has advice/suggestions I'd be happy to take them, being new to custom roms and all.
If you guys could inform me about other devices with same cpu, screen resolution and camera specs that'd be great.
Currently the base rom I'm working on is AOSP extended v5 and the port rom is lineage os 15. I'v managed to port the boot.img over so far.
If anyone is interested on carrying on or continuing, all files will be uploaded on mega. You'll need android kitchen and other basics to continue development.
Make sure you have a device with unlocked bootloader, twrp recovery and a nanodroid backup in case anything goes wrong.
I am NOT responsible for any bricked devices, ect but I will try to help.

Please do tell me if I'm doing anything wrong, as I am in no means a expert at this, just another p2 user wanting to give our devices a new life.
Thanks,
B50Corei5

Wish you a best of luck, just make it happen✌

Haha thanks. Any advice/ things I should watch out for?

With you mate
I too was thinking of porting from Redmi note 4.
Could you kindly share the methods of porting. I am a noob in custom ROM porting.
Also suggestions on which roms to be ported.

I'm currently attempting to port Lineage OS 15 from Redmi note 4, with base rom as AOSP Extended.
I'v ported the boot image over but can't find the "system" folder. If anyone would help with this it would be appreciated.
Thanks,
B50Corei5

Hopefully we can kick this thing off and get some other people involved, that way rom development for the p2 will speed up lots.
I myself am a "noob" at custom rom-ming, trying to follow youtube tutorials for porting roms. If anyone else with a bit more experience jumps on,
we should be able to get this finished quicker.

Let's do our best

Requesting help from experienced developers in finishing the ROM.
BTW are you using highwaystar's lineage os as base.

I'm probably messing up trying to port lineage os 15 while using AOSP extended v5.0 as base,
however you have to port roms that are the same os as your base.
You can't port a 8.0 rom with a 7.1.2 base.

Let's give a shot.
Don't expect for expert developer, because he/she can be already busy

Haha, thanks. I created a discord channel for it, link is all the way at start of thread.
Anyone willing to contribute can do so, I'll post updates on here as we go, don't expect
anything too soon though.

It is easy to get system dump and modify it cuz most of the files can be replaced easily by using the base rom.
Do you have any idea of creating update script and creating the final dat package? In my opinion this is the tough section i think.

Hmm. I just started developing roms so I'll look into it. It does look quite complicated. If you haven't already, go ahead and join the p2
development discord as it'll be easier to comunicate.
