Star B92M Kernel Development

Dear All,
I'm also looking to customize the kernel for overclocking and maybe CM10.1. I have found the kernel source for other Chinese phone TSL S600, TCL S710, TCL S800, which has similar spec:
CPU: MTK6577 ARMv7 Cortex-A9 Dual-core 1.0GHz
GPU: PowerVR SGX531 Ultra
Memory: 512MB
ROM: 4GB
Dual SIM
The source file can be downloaded here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/alca...?source=navbar
Maybe we can port the kernel to B92M and from there develop on the kernel.
I'm have experience in C programming(in my academic days) but no experience in kernel porting. I'm think of trying but don't know how to go about porting it. I have already setup a Ubuntu development environment and trying to compile the Kernel now.. Please feel free to try it out if you have experience with Kernel development. Please contribute and share your experience / problems here!
Let's breath life to this great device!

Cheers.

[Q] Xiaomi MI-2s // Jiayu G4s Port

Hey everyone, I am very new to porting ROMs and this is my very first attempt at it. I am trying to port Cyanogenmod 11 (4.4.2) from a Xiaomi MI-2s to a Jiayu G4s. I've been reading as much as I can from different sources and from what I've understood. When porting a ROM, you mainly just need both ROMs to be the same CPU type (In this case: ARMv7). But other sources and information around suggest that doing such a port isn't that simple at all?
- Xiaomi MI-2s
CPU: Quad-core 1.7 GHz Krait 300
- Jiayu G4s
CPU: Octa-core 1.7 GHz MTK6592
Could someone please explain, because I am starting to believe that my little project is impossible..
Can I port the Xiaomi MI-2s ROM to a Jiayu G4s?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I would start by using a source phone that already has MIUI support and the same MT6592 System on Chip.There is already at least one MIUI ROM for the G4S in the forums at this link http://www.592zn.com/. Use Google Translate to read the forum if needed - I certainly had to.

[Q] HTC Desire 620G rom?

I searched everywhere for a rom compatible with my rooted HTC Desire 620G,but there isn't even a section for it in XDA.
Anyone can help me and this poor boring device? A lollipop style rom? A Cyanogenmod unofficial port?
Phone specification:
OS Android OS, v4.4.2 (KitKat)
Chipset Mediatek MT6592M
CPU Octa-core 1.7 GHz Cortex-A7
GPU Mali-450MP4

can you guys please tell which ios rom is suitable for my phone .
it is very laggy because of its rom.
Hi,
There's no apple product development or sections on XDA. You would do best finding an apple or iPhone Forum. :good:
Good luck!

Build LineageOS for Amlogic M3

Hi guys!
Wanna build something fresh for my JXD S5110(Amlogic M3 8726M ARM Cortex A9 1GHz CPU, 3D graphics acceleration ARM Mali400 hardware GPU, 512MB DDR3).
All current firmwares have kernel 2.6.34, but I found kernel 3.10.33 with that chip support, which I suggest can be used to build at least KitKat: openlinux.amlogic.com:8000/download/ARM/kernel/m3-2015-03-25-901e2d54cf/
So my questions are:
1. Is it really possible to build KitKat with that kernel?
2. Is it possible to use that kernel with newer Android releases?
3. Is it possible to somehow adopt newer kernels for that chip?
Don't have enough comments to post that to developers' forum, so writing here.
Thank you
