HI GYz AFTER A BIG EXPERIENCE ABOUT PORTING I GOING TO SHARE MY EXPERIENCE ABOUT PORTING ANY CUSTOM ROM
BEFORE PORTING YOU NEED SOME TOOLS
1. cygwin and kitchen
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
or
2.
MTK DROID TOOL
7zip
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
NOTEPAD ++
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
(needed or any other text editing software )
THATS IT
Now start porting
At fist make two folder take name as port-rom and another folder as stock-rom
Extract the port rom into port-rom folder
now make a folder for Mtk dorid tool or if you are using kitchen then learn how to use kitchen from another thread
Now extract the stock boot,img using kitchen or Mtk droid tool cut every thing extracted into the stock-rom folder
Now extract the port boot.img
copy the stock kernel or zimage into the extracted port boot.img
Now copy the init/uventd.so file from stock boot.img and copy it to port init/ folder and replace it .......
now repack the port boot.img and pest it to port-rom folder and replace it
now boot.img is ported now time too look into meta-inf folder
Open META-INF/com/google/android
And look for updater-script
open it using notepad++
and look for two line format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p6", "0", "/system");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p6", "/system",
"max_batch_time=0,commit=1,data=ordered,barrier=1,errors=panic,nodelalloc");
Change the red marked line according to your device mount point or else use this line
/[email protected]
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If you are using "/[email protected]" this line then flashing process is
wipe every thing and format dara
reboot to revory and install the zip
Now all doen zip the port rom and install the zip
TADA the Rom ported for your device
CLICK ME TO learn HOW to make patch
GIVE a thumbs up :good: if it is help full
What should I do if this is the line of my Meta-Inf
"format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "0", "/system");"
"mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "/system");"

I want to build an own ROM, well at least try.
After few experiments -with different success- I modded existing custom ROMs.
Now I want to release an own modded ROM and for that I need a CWM-version of Stock ROM OR -better- Ho I can convert StockROM to CWM-zip.

I think after you extract and mod system.rfs you should use dsixda kitchen to make the rom and add the boot.img file to zip file created then use CWM to Install the rom
The most important thing is after u have created your system,boot.img and other folder if u added a new folder in your base rom then u need to make a updater script .B-)
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
Yea but still if I place extracted system rfs AND boot.img from CSC how do I get a running updatescript, respectively what has to be in such an update script?
Don´t tell me "just place metainf folder from out of any other rom into it", cuz in that early dev-phase the metainfs of all other roms are useless, cuz they are almost ext4 and the "just extracted stock" isn´t ext4 so the metainfs of the other ROMs won´t work. ^^
Anyone else to help here?
from some Update-script i think you should do those step:
Remember end each script with ";"
Code:
unmount ("/system")[COLOR="red"];[/COLOR]
1-Format all system like you install new Windows
Code:
format("[COLOR="red"]ext4[/COLOR]", "EMMC", "/dev/block/stl[COLOR="Red"]12[/COLOR]")
Change the red with right values: rfs,ext2,3,4(file system), 12 or 13 or 14( system,data,cache partition)
With ext4 you must have a kernel support ext4
2-After format you have to mount them to copy files
Code:
mount("[COLOR="red"]ext4[/COLOR]", "EMMC", "/dev/block/stl[COLOR="red"]12[/COLOR]", "/[COLOR="red"]system[/COLOR]")
3-Extract files from zip to ROM
Code:
package_extract_dir("[COLOR="red"]system[/COLOR]", "/[COLOR="red"]system[/COLOR]")
extract system folder in ZIP to /system
Do same thing to data, cache if you have them in ZIP.
4-Fix permission
nah i dont know to much about this
You have to change permission to right state if not i dont know what happen next
Code:
set_perm([COLOR="Red"]0[/COLOR], [COLOR="red"]0[/COLOR], [COLOR="red"]0777[/COLOR], "[COLOR="red"]/system/bin/a2sd[/COLOR]")
Set permission to one file or one folder(not its contain)
Code:
set_perm_recursive ([COLOR="red"]0[/COLOR], [COLOR="red"]0[/COLOR], [COLOR="red"]0755[/COLOR], [COLOR="red"]0644[/COLOR], "[COLOR="red"]/system[/COLOR]")
Set permission to it and all thing in it
5- Link file
ahh hard to know
You should ask someone else but me
Code:
symlink [COLOR="red"]busybox[/COLOR] [COLOR="red"]SYSTEM:xbin/zcip[/COLOR]
6- Unmount partition
Code:
unmount("[COLOR="Red"]/system[/COLOR]")
And if you have your own boot.img
Code:
assert(package_extract_file("boot.img", "/tmp/boot.img"),
write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot"),
delete("/tmp/boot.img"));
This is really basic. So may be it wont work

Hi all,
Not sure whether anyone ever created this, whether it already exists, or even whether it's useful, but nevertheless I **proudly** present to you:
Building an ODIN package using a cwm-installable script!
If you want to do it using ADB (either through dos or cygwin), please go to this topic:
The making of ... an ODIN installable package
Simple, single step, effective and based on the original files of XXKPS (adsp.mbn, amss.mbn, cache.img.ext4, preload.img.ext4) running this zip will create an Odin package.
It takes only 6 to 7 minutes to build the file!
It does not include the cache or preload of your ROM (so your data is safe when distributing these files as far as I know!!).
This way you can easily share any ROM you have created by combining parts of other ROMs. For instance, if you installed Cranium ROM, added Feamod to it, did the 14-button mod and added the ICS mod too - build the Odin md5 zip with this package and share your custom modded ROM with the community!!
Download
XXKPS or XXKPS - thanks broodPlank!
XXKPU - thanks broodPlank!
XXKQ1 - thanks broodPlank!
XXKQ7 - thanks broodPlank!
XXKQB or XXKQB - thanks broodPlank!
XXKQE - thanks broodPlank!
XXKQI - thanks broodPlank!
DXLD3 - thanks [FONT="]somboons!
[/FONT] ** Please upload this file to mirrors and post them when available
Instructions
Please make sure you have installed Feamod Recovery
Build your ROM, add all mods, make it the way you want to share it
Check whether the internal sdcard has enough space (at least 2 GB)
Copy the zip to your internal or external sdcard
Reboot into recovery (Poweroff, then press Vol-Up and Poweron)
Select "install zip from sdcard" and browse to the location you used in step 4
Select the zip... it will start building the Odin package immediately
Please allow the system to build the zip in step 7 - this will take several minutes!
Other Stock ROMs
Like broodPlank did, you can also make a CWM installer for Odin packages that create other Stock ROMs:
Download BuildOdinCWM-noBaseRom.zip
Download the Stock ROM of your choice
Extract the following files from the Stock ROM:
adsp.mbn
amss.mbn
cache.img.ext4
preload.img.ext4
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Zip all files and folders back up and ready
If you want to use another name for your new Odin package, please replace "MyOdinpack" with whatever name you like the following files in the scripts folder:BuildOdin.sh
MD5Odin.sh(make sure to use a text editor that can handle Unix files like Notepad++ or UltraEdit)
Please share your new creations, like broodPlank did
Enjoy!!
Regards,
Nika.
If anyone has an idea how to check from a shell or cwm script:
* Check for free diskspace
* Check for files already available, to avoid overwrite (preferably with choice to remove or backup files)
It would be much appreciated. If you have seen cwm script on other devices that can do that kind of stuff, just let me know and I'll check them out myself
Regards,
Nika.
that's very helpful and should save time spent on transferring cwm backup to pc and doing everything manually but u should've just added it to the OP of the other "making of an odin file" thread, we'd still pump up ur thanks meter u don't have to worry . opening new threads for every lil thing just causes pollution (no hard feelings)

I really don't care about the thanks meter, trust me. I decided to do it this way to avoid making the other thread too complex. Will add a reference in the OP of the other thread though and one in this to make sure others know where to go if they want to do this through adb...
Very nice! This will save me allot of time . Very nice post again nikagl, you make allot of handy scripts!

Thanks! Added it to OP. Just wondering, would it make a difference? What are these files for anyway (adsp.mbn, amss.mbn, cache.img.ext4 and preload.img.ext4? There's hardly any difference as far as I can see (mounted ext4)
Still thinking of making a tool that converts the actual cwm files others post (ie. the actual system files) into an Odin package directly but didn't yet find a way to create an ext4 file other than by dd-dumping it

I have no clue what adsp.mbn, amss.mbn and preload.img.ext4 are for but I know that cache.img.ext4 has the CSC Configuration inside, I tweaked the sec_csc.zip file and inserted custom apps, it worked
Changed the updater script to this (commented lines because this is a test)

Installs CSC and 2 extra apps
I will test it first after a stock install but if it works fine I will integrate it into broodROM RC3, so I can add extra apps without having them to be system apps
And for creating .ext4 files, if you use DiskInternals Linux Reader you can save it as .img but if you just choose .img.ext4 and verify the file afterwards it seems to be an correct file (haven't tested it tho)

Well... I guess it should be possible, but it will take just as long and you'll need to move the files, rename them, replace some with the stock (empty) files to avoid data into the odin package, and add the others. Then tar/md5 them and in the end you'd have the Odin package... sounds to me the cwm-method from this thread is much easier

You can manually put it in the ZIP and modify the updater-script to flash this to /dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/LNX.

I have make 1 build...... And now i'm going to made some modifications and one is the kernel...... I hope put my rom over here..... Thanks my friend for the answer
You can put it in the ROM ZIP too if that's what you were asking.
But how?? Thanks

Just put the boot.img in the ROM ZIP and edit the updater-script to include these lines:
Code:
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/APP", "/system");
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "grouper" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "grouper" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "tilapia" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "tilapia");
run_program("/sbin/sh", "-c", "mkdir /system/etc/init.d");
set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, 0755, "/system/etc/init.d");
unmount("/system");
assert(package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/LNX"));
That's how Franco does it. You could also try dd'ing the contents of boot.img to /dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/LNX, but I don't know the exact syntax for that. You can check other kernel ZIPs and see how they install the kernel in recovery. Add the boot.img to your ROM ZIP and then edit the updater-script to include the required lines. That should do it!
Thanks you are great!!! I think that if a want add .apk is something similar??

Yes, but for apps you don't have to change anything in the updater-script.

i hope don't be a fastidious man..... but you know some build.prop tweaks?? i'm copy a few tweaks for internet but......tweaks(build.prop) really makes better the performance and the battery? or just are lie?
to edit the zip of cm10, i will uncompress and edit and compress again?
thanks!!
If you are on Ubuntu, just drag and drop the files you need. And I don't think tweaks really help a lot. Just my opinion though.

Hi!
I have a problem with my update.zip. Now my zip file has a jar file, xml file, and an apk file. in meta-inf folder : com/android/google/ updater-binary and updater-script. I copied the updater-binary from other rom for my device. Now, I wanna put my jar file to system/framework, put the xml file to system/etc/premissions and put the apk file to data/app. I wrote script but it only puts jar file to system/framework, not all files.
I flashed it in all recoveries, no abort. so how to fix ?
here is my updater-script file :
Code:
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
package_extract_file("com.playstation.playstationcertified.xml", "system/etc/premissions");
package_extract_file("com.playstation.playstationcertified.jar", "/system/framework");

First download a custom rom for your device then open the updater script.The updater script will show a line called format('ext4'...... Dev block/.......) which is actually for your device recovery mount points and write the line in your own updater script with the reference of the other updater script.
