HELP!!! [ How to build or port kernal for android kitakt ] - General Questions and Answers

Hhi, idk if this is right forum but ya this is my question and please answer me.
so, i have my old mtk6582 phone based on jelly bean. (also it is my first ever phone i got)
always since childhood i am trying to have it upgraded to al least android 4.4.4 (kitkat) but i also know it is not possible because it would require an upgraded kernel.
i manage to find similar phone with similar specs but problem is phone boots up and but touchscreen doesn't work and require to be used using mouse.
so my question is, is there any ways to make or porte kernel for aosp based stock ROM (android one) phone.
if method is for Linux (ubuntu) system it would be grate. thanks for help.

[Q] How can I root this phone? (Oplus/O+ Android 8.7)

So I bought this new phone from (what I think) is a new company, O+ (O plus, whatever).
I've tried lots of possible methods to root their Oplus 8.7 Android phone but alas, that's not happening.
I'm a bit inexperienced when it comes to ROM and builds, etc, but if it would be any help, here are the details that I can find when I checked Settings > About Phone.
System updates: Oplus_A100ALPS.GB2.MP.V2
Model number: O+_8.7_Android
Android Version: 2.3.6
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7
Build number: Oplus_A100ALPS.GB2.MP.V2
I really hope someone can help me here. Thank you.
I also have this phone. Tried using different Rooting software to no avail. The farthest I have gone to "semi-rooting" it is to change the default installation of apps and games to directly go to the SD. This phone has really bad internal memory size. Anyway, let me know if you discover a way to root this. Cheers

how can i change the default installation of apps and games to sd card. I also have this phone and the only problem that i have is the size of the internal memory. pls teach me how to do the semi rooting.. tnx..
rooting
yep, have the same phone with same problems as with you guys.. though i found a different way to boot up the phone towards its "factory s
et-up" : turn off your phone, then after a while, simultaneously press volume down key and power button, it should bring you to the set-up i mentioned..im quite hesitant to tweak at the settings for it might break my phone, though i never found the "download" setting which ive seen in other phones has that setup which you could upload certain files in relation to rooting the phone.. Again i turned off the phone, this time i pressed volume key up and power button, and the Triangle sign with the exclamation point inside it (most known as the warning sign) with the android mascot beside the warning sign appearing on the screen, may be this leads to that "rooting" enigma we have.. hope this helps, im not a hacker but hope this leads to something.. keep me posted you guys.. thanks

[Q] Need Help with any Compatible Custom Rom for Measy TV Box

Hi all,
I'm new to the XDA-Dev Forums... and i'm desperate :crying: .
I recently purchased a Measy B4K android TV-Box / Stick. I want to upgrade this to at least android 4.2.2 or 4.3 if possible as it came with 4.1.1, but I cant find any custom roms for this product anywhere. It's supposed to support up to 2160p output, but for some reason even if i set it to a 1080p display setting it still looks like its just upscalling from 720p. Would really like to get a true 1080p kernel on the device.
Is it possible to use a "Generic" 4.2.2 or 4.3 android build? I unfortunately don't have a lot of experience with custom rom builds or installations, but i really want to learn if ANYone can assist I would REALLY appreciate it so so much!
i know this an old thread but i'll answer anyway as we just found some intresting stuff & upgrade that helps a lot
also to be sure it's this a31 device we have and i'm guessing your talking about the same thing : http://www.measy.com.cn/product/showproduct75_en.htm
not a custom rom but we've gotten hold of a developpers 4.2.2 RC3 firmware for measy b4k. We had trouble getting installed but another person found a way to do it. You need phoenixcard 3.09 (http://www.freaktab.com/showthread....S918S-firmware&p=131526&viewfull=1#post131526)
this rom https://alimail.alibaba.com/alimail...eb961&[email protected]
burn the rom as product using phoenixcard, install terminal app, erase nanda then, insert phoenix burned sdcard in measy b4k box, reboot. because the boot is gone (nanda) it will try to boot from sd card and start the firmware upgrade the normal methods using the hidden reco button on the left did not seem to work. but this did, i did as well as someone else.
To give you an idea with original firmware that came with the device i had around 10000 - 11000 antutu score with this dev build firmware i have 19000 antutu score and everything feels a lot smoother & faster.
1st succes upgrade

how to erase nanda on it
http://www.freaktab.com/showthread....S918S-firmware&p=132947&viewfull=1#post132947
do note if you fail at doing something but you erased nanda your device will not boot ! it's a bit risky but worked without a problem with me
Thanks for the info!

[Completed] Custom Huawei U8666E Fusion 2 rom Bluetooth error

So I decided to take my old AT&T Fusion 2 and upgrade it to android 4.0.3. I installed clockworkmod 6 and flashed the ProFusion rom with CyanogenMod 10.1. All went well, but bluetooth isn't working and the site that the rom originally came from, no longer exists so the bluetooth fix method that is used to fix the issue isn't available for download. Is there a way (and I'm new to android development, but willing to take any steps necessary) to rewrite the bluetooth code so that my phone is compatible with bluetooth again? This rom is the only rom compatible with my phone

Hi,
Thank you for using XDA assist
It looks like there is no dedicated forum for your device. However there is a general forum for android here http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help where you can try to ask to get the expert's help
Good luck.

What to do? Preparation before creating new ROM for Zopo ZP990+ (MT6592)

So basically i got a little bit tired of being stuck with my good old Zopo ZP990+ and it's stock Android 4.2.2 and want to do something about it.
I dug a little bit through xda and other sites and found out that there are lots of official KitKat ROMs and custom Lollipops (Marshmallow even) for devices with the same processor (MT6592).
Some info about my model:
Zopo ZP990+ running slightly customed Android 4.2.2 with kernel 3.4.39. Got myself a TWRP so no problem with custom Recovery.
Wherever i go i see that in order to port ROMs i need to upgrade my kernel to 3.4.67 (or smth like that) so:
1. Do i really have to update kernel in order to flash custom 4.4.4 or higher? (Might be stupid question for some of you, but i just can't let go of hoping that it might run with 3.4.39 as well)
2. If i do have to then is there any way to know HOW can i update it? (Or mod it, whatever is fine with me as long as i will know how to do it or where to find info about it)
3. I also found a guide which shows how to create completely new CyanogenMod, so i was wandering whether i should go in that direction and then maybe just update that?
It seems like there is no official release of kernel source code (found something on github, but it's not official and i think it's for ZP990 not ZP990+).
Simply put i just want to ask about modding kernel, how to and what to do with it in order to get it working with better firmwares.
Thank You all for any kind of support given. If nothing is possible, then don't worry. I'll somehow deal with this harsh truth.

Can I install a newer version of android on a Fly IQ4514 phone?

I'm new to the whole android world, so please forgive me if my question is sorta stupid I'm not exactly sure how this whole installing custom ROMs of android works, but I researched a bit and seems like you gotta find a custom ROM for your device first and then install it. The device I want to try is a Fly Eclipse 3 IQ4514 with 1 GBs of RAM and MediaTek MT6582M processor, running Android 4.4.2.
I might be a long shot, but I'm just curious to know if it's possible to force a higher version of android on this device? If there are any custom ROMs out there that I could use.
