ROM Request - General Topics

Hi Developers, you all are awesome. I have been following xda from last 5 years. All the devices I owned in the past have beautiful custom roms. Recently I have purchased Lyf Earth 1. But there's no custom rom for this device. I request all the developers to port a Cyanogen rom for this device. This device is beast when it comes to specifications having 3 GB ram and 32 GB internal storage. Can any developer Pls port a rom for this device. I guess it's not that hard for you awesome people out here in this community. Please help.

My reply to this, as a former device maintainer: What's stopping you? We'd all love for a developer to jump in and create a build for our favorite devices. The truth is though that not everyone has a device in hand to do it and, contrary to popular belief, a device is necessary to do a proper bringup.
If you'd like to find out how you could get started on this on your own I'd be happy to offer some tips. Pretty sure other devs would as well. But beyond that, my friend, I'm afraid that's not what this site is for... and will be closing this thread. I wish you luck and hope you'll consider taking the initiative in bringing some goodness to your own device!

[Q] Android roms for Samsung Focus rev1.3..?

Hello,
I am new to xda-developer site and this is my very first thread on this site. First of all I thanks all the developers for providing us such a useful things for our phones. I am really enjoying using my samsung focus after upgrading it to custom rom which ai got from this site.
Now, If anybody have information about Android rom for focus then please tell me I am eagerly awaiting for Android rom. Please tell me when it will come? I read from some source over internet in the thread of 'Cotulla' that they are preparing many roms for focus only for future.....Please tell me about Android rom........
Once again thanks to all team of xda-developer site and all the developers....I hope I would also become a developer in future..

What ROM do people want to see most for this phone?

Now that the bootloader can be unlocked, and full rooting is on its way with fully supported TWRP, it will be possible to have a large choice of ROMs.
What do people think will be the best for this -tablet-, er, phone?
Resurrection Remix 5.8 Rom
Thor Galaxy S7 Style Rom
Even as it is the device is very well built and with only rooting I am sure we could do a lot of customisations.
KANGVIP pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeease!

Hi Everyone!
I must have stated this many times before in different threads but let me repeat. Whilst the ZF3U is a very capable and really useful device, the developer community has abandoned any work on this device. Root is available, kernel unlock is available but no attention from developers. I really cannot understand this. Even the Sony Xperia Z Ultra with its lack of features such as a basic flash and dual sim got more roms and customizations than our ZF3Us. ZF3U definitely deserves more attention, in fact it deserves more attention than the Note Series due to its size and base features. I have been wishing for a proper Paranoid Android style rom for a long time but there is not even one credible rom for this device. Very disappointed on this aspect of the device.
CAUTION! In my opinion, and as many have learned the hard way, I would strongly advise that you do not unlock the bootloader and/or root unless you really are prepared for risks. Until decent support becomes available use the device in its original factory state. I am currently on my 2nd ZF3U and have no trouble at all. I even,suspect that the current root method and TWRP may even be corrupt that some users are having these issues. My 1st one died after so many software issues and then root related issues so be cautious is my advice.
@AWFRONT, Thanks for sharing.
There are just no dedicated 'developers' for most of the phones in the market on custom ROMs. All the them are users and volunteers like us. You can always step up as a developer.

I agree but think that Samsung phones seem to be getting the most attention than ASUS and Huawei. As someone who has been following the developments on Custom Roms, I think since the move by most OEMs to bring their UX on their devices closer to stock Android, most developers do not think it is worth any attention apart from Root and may be Xposed mods etc… .
IbwishvI could step up as a developer but, lets say the preessures of life make me stay for the time being as an enthusiastic user but you never know.

[Completed] How to port a Rom or build one from source?

I've been an XDA dead member for nearly six years now yet I've never made a post. I'm tired of waiting for a custom rom to be ported to my phone. I guess what I'm wondering is can anybody link me a post describing the step by steps of how to Port a custom rom from one phone to another. If someone can do that for me I promise to port as many ROMs as I can, to help expand the open source projects, giving credit where credit is doing. Thanks so much. :victory:

How can i get started on android custom ROM and kernel development

Hello i have been a long time user of XDA and been installing custom ROMs and mods on all devices i owned and even few devices of my friends. I was amazed how developers make amazing ROMs and kernels for us which work even better than stock almost all the time. I am a college student with a fair bit of programming and linux knowledge but never got around to android development (except making apps which i have done). Can anyone suggest how can I start developing or from where do I start (the little bits) ? I currently own poco x2 and mi A1. Or if there's a good guide to it can anyone link it ? If the developers of Poco x2/k 30 can help guide me to the path of developing it would be amazing.
Thank you in advance ?.
I am no expert on this subject (am ok at searches and found this), may be these are good steps to start:
1. XDA resource - https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/guide-how-to-build-custom-roms-kernel-t3814251
2. Pray , so that more devs will join with you on custom dev for this device.
Edit: BTW, am already praying since we have been able to unlock bootloader.
check here: its already started
collab with others who are already onboard

Android 8 ROM for Micromax Canvas Mega 4G

Hello readers. Although I am not quite new to XDA, it is my first post here.
I have a Micromax Canvas Mega 4G (Micromax Q417) device on which I want to enable treble support which can only be achieved by installing Android 8 ROM. And I cannot find it anywhere for this model. So, I decided to post a thread on XDA in the hope that some developer is kind enough to either make me a custom rom or to at least tell me where to find android 8 rom for my device as I cannot make it myself because of limited computing power.
You can find the information about this device here.
If you are kind enough to make a rom for me then I will be very grateful to you.
If you don't have so much time and effort then even a link to the site from which I can download the working rom will be greater than enough.
I am more focused on LineageOS but any other AOSP 8.1 rom would be ok.
I hope not to get disappointed by the community.
Thank you for reading.

Sorry brother, you should have asked a little earlier. I already gave my phone to someone else a few months ago. You might want to search on e-bay for the phone or it's parts.
