Porting cyanogenmod 12.1 on fire hd8 2017 - Fire HD 8 and HD 10 General

I'm experimenting with getting the cm 12.1 to work on my hd8 2017.
One of my college friend suggested to try replace part of the folders in the system partition with the one in the cm and today i've tryed and to my astonishment it reachd the cm 12.1 splash screen and from there i'm getting a very nice bootloop
I know this is probably the worst way of porting a rom ( seems to me so, im not an expert) but if some rom-porting expert can tell me what is wrong with the boot process even just for the sake of knowledge.
in the attachments a splash-screen image and a partial logcat (the logcat was capture when the tablet was "dirty" and still had FireOS data and cache)

I know @Rortiz2 was looking at doing the same thing.
Maybe you two can coordinate.

oh my god!! What rom used as base!!??? What folders did you replaced? More info please! Also you need to wipe data and system before flash a ROM.
Send it to me please, I will take a look.

Dude you need to use a ROM from an mtk 64 bit device!
I suggest this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/elephone-p7000/development/rom-t3355842
Let me port it using that guide and I will send you a .zip for flash it using flashfire.

Libraries on hd8 2017 are 64 bit too (lib64 folder). And yes, it's very important. You can't port a ROM from an Snapdragon device to an MTK one lol.
I'm surprised that the bootanimation started.
Did you used flashfire for flash it?

nope i've patched the system image from the ota
but excluding the libraries (that i didn't touch) i know that you can't port a rom if the apps are odex at least until you deodex all of them becouse the odex contains the compiled code specific to the processor, correct me if i'm wrong

So you mounted stock system.img, replaced that folders, unmounted it and flashed it tought fastboot? Very interesting. IDK why bootanimation started if you're using stock boot.img that doesn't starts the bootanimation service from init.rc.

You can try if you want. I'm porting it too for see if it works, the problem is that I will make a zip so you will need to use flashfire to flash it..
PS: your hacked fastboot allows to flash boot.img's that are not from amazon?

well last night i switched to the cynogenmod 12.1 port for the hd7 (i know 32bit) this time i copied also part of the 32bit libraries (when an import error on a library occurred i replaced the library with the hd7 one ) slowly advancing in the android boot before a bootloop

I am doing a new build at this time i think i did something wrong the first time, so im going to add another unsigned file in a minute if you or someone else could make it a flashable zip and do a logcat when you do to save time would be good help, ill edit this page when it goes live on dropbox.
BTW this is how im trying to port it if anyone else wants a go - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1994503
For making flashable zip just select meta-inf folder system folder and boot.img and add them archieve, there is nothing extra to do.

Is old hboot 2.09 supported ?
can we flash this over 4.0.3 or do we need 4.0.4 as base ?
Paint in more detail information on ROM.
From what device port that was done, lay out screenshots, competently issue a post, write the detailed instruction. That works that doesn't work.

[GUIDE]How to build CM12 for flamingo

Hello all,
since we have unofficial nightlies but we don't have any tutorial how can we build our own package, I've decided to make one.
ATTENTION: I am not responsible for any damage you may cause to your phone. I MAY be wrong on this guide.
This guide is useful for those who:
1.) Want to learn building basics and get a bit into android development
2.) Don't like waiting for another nightly (I assume not, they come quite often)
3.) Want to contribute to our community by making custom ROMs
Prerequisites
1.) Linux computer 64-bit (I will use Ubuntu as example)
2.) Reasonable hardware (at least 4 GB RAM)
3.) At least 50 GB of free space on disc
4.) Reliable internet connection
5.) Patience and a bit of intelligence :good:
Instructions
1.) Follow this guide up to "Initialize the CyanogenMod source repository" step (don't execute this step).
What it does? This will prepare all the build packages and set build environment.
Yes, I'm aware that it is for Xperia T, but this part is pretty much the same.
2.) In the command window type
Code:
cd ~/android/system/
repo init -u git://github.com/CyanogenMod/android.git -b cm-12.1
What it does? This will initialize empty repository in /android/system directory.
3.) Add local manifest for flamingo device
Code:
mkdir -p ~/android/system/.repo/local_manifests
Copy sony.xml (in zip atteched down the thread) to the directory above
What it does? This step assures you'll download device-specific repositories.
4.) Download the source code
Code:
repo sync
What it does? This will download every single repository of CM12.1 (about 20 GB), takes long time, depending on your internet.
5.) Hack to compile sepolicy properly
Code:
cd external/sepolicy
git revert 79ff523ac99b339914ccaa754e068072d64da542
What it does? This reverts a commit causing a build error with our (not only our) device.
6.) Setup the build environment & prepare the device-specific code.
Code:
cd ~/android/system
. build/envsetup.sh
breakfast flamingo
What it does? This magic command sets up all needed commands and makefiles for build. See this page.
7.) Build
Code:
brunch flamingo
What it does? Simple - builds the CM. Speed depends on your hardware. Don't expect less than three hours for the first time.
Zip with kernel is ready in out/target/product/flamingo ready to install, congratulations :good:
If you have any questions, suggestions, errors, feel free to ask.

Actually cm-11.0 should be the same, just init with -b cm-11.0.
But I can't recommend it, because cm11 has never been fully finished for E3 and it was abandoned long time ago. Developers now focus on cm12.

Only for this reason I can forget to create a CM 12 rom :/
If someone could create one for me, I'll donate for the hard work

I will not communicate the ammount, it will be proportionnal to the ROM quality, cheers !

Mimimimimimimi i can pay! Ohhh rich boy, why don't you buy a better phone? You'll get a official cm12 not this junk who "developers" are cooking. Eat me, eat my meat and drink my blood, i love you sweet killer.

Hue? Why I don't buy new phone?
Because I'm not that rich that you think
Why I want this ''junk'' devs are cooking?
Because Devs (if they are noobs or experienced) stay developpers, and we need them. Any
I'll not judge anyone if he's rich or poor, I just don't have the possibility to install linux on my computer (already running 2 versions of windows and a smartlaunch on linux), that why I'll reward people working on a ROM for E3 with money (only thing that interrest most people...)
About that:

What is happening with Open GApps?

Does anybody know why Open GApps still hasn't added support for the Pixel and Pixel XL?
After playing around with my new Pixel XL all day, I don't entirely see the problem stopping Open GApps from working. Can they not just tell the installer to install to /system/system on Pixel devices? I know one of the major issues is that there is no easy way to tell which slot to flash to, but I feel like if someone is flashing GApps, they are probably competent enough to switch slots in TWRP, and if they don't, it'll just install GApps to the other slot, which shouldn't hurt anything.
As a side note, does anyone know if it's possible to build an Open GApps package of our own that would flash to /system/system of the currently selected slot? BeansGapps aren't customizable and don't contain all of the apps I want.

But it hurts ppls brains when they have to answer the question of "Why are my gapps not loading" kinds of questions people raise often because they dont like following directions.
Also, I'm not sure. I think there is a modified OpenGapps installer floating around the forum somewhere that can be used to install to Pixel. I thought I read a not to long back, but not 100%.

I cannot find any either, and I wish there was.

I want an easy way to flash the Google apps and replace them in the system partition.

I actually figured out how to mod it myself and could give you a modified package if you want. I don't even use the flashable packages anymore because I started building my own copy of Lineage with a bunch of mods and Open GApps included and configured exactly how I want.

Wow, that be wonderful.
I basically want stock packages if possible. That replaces the aosp and lineage ones. If that's what you have or could give it would be much appreciated. If you have a guide or cheat sheet on how you did it, that would be ok too.

Give me like 15 minutes to do it an upload it and then it will work exactly like a normal Open GApps package and you can use a gapps-config.txt file to configure it exactly how you want.

No worries
Here you guys go: https://mega.nz/#!4owiRa5a!j4hbQrGlK0Ugz6HoTn33kcKpkaauajKeMcXkzBVxz9g
It's the stock package and it will work on the Pixel and Pixel XL (and theoretically any other A/B device). You can use the standard gapps-config file to configure the installation. Also, it needs to be flashed on which ever slot the ROM is on, not the opposite like TWRP.

Thx. I am uploading it to my drive. I am currently using RR. Next time they update their rom, I'll do a clean install and let you know how I made out.
Thanks again!

Hi, was wondering if you could share how you modified the zip?
I downloaded a new aroma package and would like to be able not to bug you if I ever need a new one lol.

I also have the same problem, I want to install Dirty unicorns on my Pixel , but I hate ASOP apps, but I am. not able to install OpenGapps after flashing the ROM, in order to remove ASOP apps from that ROM. So I have to use Pure Nexus....

Wow, that be wonderful.
I basically want stock packages if possible. That replaces the aosp and lineage ones. If that's what you have or could give it would be much appreciated. If you have a guide or cheat sheet on how you did it, that would be ok too.
I have a Pixel XL Google Store Edition 128GB

I've never modified the Aroma one but I assume it's similar. All you have to do is open the install script and replace "/system" with "/system/system", but you can't just replace all because there are several instances of "/data/system", where it would change to "/data/system/system" incorrectly (you could probably stop that with regex). Also, there were two lines with "/system" in regards to mounting that don't need to be changed (I don't remember the exact line numbers but you'll probably know as soon as you see them).

Well, I can not find it for the life of me if a modified version exists. I spent most of yesterday searching.

thanks, I actually found a super simple way while I waited for your reply, I assumed it was the installer file, so I tried just overwriting it with the one provided with your package and it worked lol.

That will work so long as file names remain the same, but if they ever change the name of a file or add/remove an app it will probably break.

Ok thx, if that happens then I'll go your route with tweaking the file with /system/system

So,
I think Open-Gapps finally put support in for Pixel and all other A/B partition devices. I found this in the Installer.sh code for their latest (5-28-17) super package for ARM64
# Detect A/B partition layout https://source.android.com/devices/tech/ota/ab_updates
if [ -n "$(cat /proc/cmdline | grep slot_suffix)" ];
then
device_abpartition=true
SYSTEM=/system/system
else
device_abpartition=false
SYSTEM=/system
fi
That is something I could not find in the Installer.sh file you modified. Unless you took that out and manually changed system/system?

Yes they did. I actually posted about it in the news/announcement forum when the devs told me they added it on their Gitter chat.

[HELP] Features Missing after unlocking bootloader

Well although I planned to unlock bootloader after a few months I decided to grab the opportunity when unlock page started working and with the ultimatum by Huawei about providing unlock codes, but ever since I unlocked and fixed multiple boot loops I noticed few apps and features are now missing such as
HiFi Huawei sounds in Settings is gone
Unable to change or apply themes
smart remote Control is now gone,
Phone no longer stay awake while looking at it
There might be more stuff missing which I haven't noticed
I mean it feels absurd I just unlocked bootloader why are these stuffs missing this makes no sense to me, all I did is installed twrp, installed magisk no modules nothing, in fact, my favorite mods are giving boot loops anyway but that aside I do need the above things back please help out a friend, anyone else faced this ?
I have a theory like Miui had a "region" option and apps changes according to regions set. So does something like this happens in EMUI as well, I don't remember exactly but I believe I set region/language as the UK while completing the setup, if so how can I change it back(PS: I live in India)
or its the side effect of root perhaps?
PHONE: HONOR VIEW 10
Current EMUI ver:8.0
Varient:BKL-09(C675D2)
Current Version of Update:8.0.0.140

Wow well I expected a better response from the community or some response for sure.. Well turns out these all apks were in data partition, so they got removed when phone storage was formatted, makes sense now
Extracted the apks and pushed them myself... Features are back

No idea what kind of issues you had, but none of those vanished after unlocking my bootloader.
I've been able to use themes just like before, the display stays on when I look at it and those Huawei sounds in settings are still there as well. No idea about the remote since I never used it anyway.
So idk what went wrong on your phone but it doesn't look like that's anything "normal"
Help please !
Bro, can you please please please extract upload C675 system.img stock so that I can come back on stock?

I am guessing it as per different variant, perhaps in mine these apk were in the data partition, Microsoft translator was missing as well
I pushed those apks extracting from firmware to the system partition and its back to normal
You are a savior then !
Yes bro, please upload it. It would be a pleasure for me and several others. I'm dying to get that.

I just realized the firmware on firmware finder seems rather incomplete, update.app is just 300 MB or so, no way it contains full system.img
so am gonna have to take twrp backup b ready for 3gb download, anything else u want other than the system?
From LOS to Stock
Thats not a problem bro, have a 50mbps 250gb monthly plan in broadband. Wanted you to know that I am coming from LOS to stock as much as I know it would require only system.img. But if you think anything else would be required, then please upload that too, as I have only the stock recovery and nothing else.
Thanks for your help !

paste it in the twrp folder of the phone and use restore option of twrp

Mate, thank you for this upload. I am also having the same problems(C675). You are a life saver.
1. Could you please elaborate the steps in detail, where to place system.img in twrp folder(In Internal or sd card)?
2. Also what is the version u have uploaded mate(8.0.0.140/8.0.0.151)?
3. Also can you upload ramdisk, kernel, stock recovery also?
4. Is there any way to get FULLOTA-MF for India as provided in other regions?
Thank you.
I flashed it bro but no network.
I think I need radio/modem files.
Could you please upload? I'm waiting.

here you go , rest of the partitions
Do the same unzip in PC- Copy all these files inside twrp backup folder, go to twrp and use restore option hopefully it will work
this is 140 update backup I haven't received 151 officially due to unknown reasons, but I had made changes to my system partition so it contains almost all new features and fixes of 151 except the 3D creator cam,
3D creator is in my data partition which i did not backup
Hey, Are you sure taking restore of this one alongwith previous one will do the job ? I guess imei resides in efs partition which I cannot see here. Can you confirm this once please ?
and thanks for your time and effort bro

Hey, could you share how did you manage to extract the apks? I downloaded the firmware using the Firmware Finder and found the HwRemoteController.apk but when I try to install it via adb I get a signature failure.
Mate, thank you for this upload.
1. Is there any way to get FULLOTA-MF for India as provided in other regions?
2. How to install the latest update with root?. Is there any solution available?

U need to place them directly in /system/app
Or /data/apps and give permission rw-r--r--
Or try signing the apk it should work I guess if libs are not there

Take your own backup first... Try installing only one partition at time... To be honest this EMUI is very new to me... Dont know y they made so many different partitions
Or maybe it's a kirin's thing... I should have just gone with Op5t like rest of the world... Its just chaos and confusion here

The latest unofficial doesn't seem to boot, seems there is a problem with the bootloader. I will try the first unofficial and see if it works. The uploader of the Rom has made previous roms for other devices so there is hope finally for our Galaxy S8
Omg this is real? Pls work on g955f too
Crossing my fingers !!!
Can any dev check the validity of this rom?

I have the same issue. The problem seems to be with the bootloader, i might be completely wrong. Is there any dev that can check the rom?
---------- Post added at 03:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:33 PM ----------
The same dev also uploaded 2 AICP nightlies for our device. Or the developer confused code names for devices and this is not meant for our device
This is indeed for our device because dev has mentioned it is for "Galaxy S8" but highly doubt it is any different from the ROMs we already have that are not in a condition for daily use
I kept playing around with the rom for the past couple days and I pulled a tombstone file and it seems there is an openGL error. I have attached the tombstone file below. I'm not experienced enough to know what all of that stuff means lol

It seems there are other problems with the ROM, not just the OpenGL thing
"dlopen failed: library "/vendor/lib64/egl/get_process_name.so" not found"
You can try finding that file and placing it into the .zip file manually, unfortunately I can't test it because I have S8 plus, but no guarantee that it'll work

What about copying the whole of the vendor folder?
And placing them in the rom after the installation through the Twrp file manager?

So I just tried it and nothing changed which was weird. Then I go back to twrp and check the files and they're gone. They seem to get deleted every time the phone reboots for some reason I believe

Yeah, that's why I usually like to replace/add something from/to the .zip file itself, nothing like that will happen

The zip has inside it a system.new.dat.br where all the system stuff are and I can't open it. Would I be able to just place the vendor files in the root of the zip and just update the updater-script?
