Hi guys, i have experience with custom roms, but i got confused by these treble projects as well.. i want to know if this will make my j5 prime (armv8 - 32 bit mode) fully 64 bit, and i really need to go back to the stock rom to flash this?
One more thing, the treble info app says my phone doesn't support treble, but I've seen people using treble in the same model, when flashing create vendor does that change?

Hello all!
First time poster, just getting into rom porting and android dev.
making this thread, due to the serious lack of information / boards about these tiny china phones that are flooding wish/aliexpress and are stuck on android 6.0/7.0.
I've tried to use a few different roms as ports (where i patch select files from etc/lib and all that good stuff) using a guide found here specifically for mtk chipsets. I've only tried x32 to x32 same SoC, and patching kernel from stock rom in. This was without any kernel changes, still patching in my 3.18.19+ kernel over mostly 7.1.2 roms built for 3.18.19. I'm guessing the + makes it completely different like mt6737 vs 6737t or 6737m.
My goal is to port an MTK kernel to my current device (soyes s10, mt6737m android 6.0 kernel 3.18.19+ 3/32gb model) that supports android 7.1.2. I've found what I believe to be an almost the same version device tree, and I have ubuntu and windows and am rather well versed in both.
I'm not sure how to discern the kernel version (linux ver) of this download, but my "custom build version" is looking very similar, alps-mp-m0.mp1-V2.84_bd6737m.35g.b.m0_P81.
I'm mainly wondering:
1. Who else has some of these tiny china phones (only band 41 us support!) melrose, ifosa, soyes, unbranded, etc? I've ported over TWRP for this device also if anyone is interested. root was simple enough with mtk-su. It flashes zips but it wont boot roms. it's TWRP 3.2.1.0 or 3.1.2.0 I'm not 100%.
1a) could my whole problem be solved by porting a newer version of TWRP for the device?
2. can I port newer kernel 3.18.35 from source above?
3.MTK's whack implementation of fast charging, PE+ 2.0 support for my mt6737, they send 15w (5v3a) motorola branded charging brick with phone. but it seems to charge at random rates, not fast charging. Not sure if it's even worth it to try and find a brick that is listed as MTK PE+ compatible. anybody have any advice there? it would be a dope phone if the fast charge was reliable. maybe I can mod the kernel to force enable it in the future.
4. why won't any of my ported roms boot? I can't find a modules folder in my stock fw's lib image(s) where it should be in order to port. are these maybe just located in the root of /lib and very specific files I have to cherry pick and port over? i'm thinking android -all modules = no booting. not really sure where i'm going wrong but it's a million questions in one so if you can answer any of them, please chime in
I forgot I can't post any links, but like I have links to stuff
Thanks guys, I've been lurking these forums for near a decade.
It's nice to meet all of you, looking forward to some good learning

Hi mate.
First off, I'm really sorry -but I can't answer any of your questions...
I'm looking at the Servo S10 for myself, though ; how did you go with everything -any progress?
Also, how is the battery life? Sounds like it's not a deal-breaker. Sorry again that this isn't an answer to your questions, but I'd appreciate the feedback.

Hello, everyone!
I just got a J4+ from a family member after my iPhone stopped working, I've been an iOS user for over 4 years.
Before moving to iOS in 2017, I used to be a Samsung/Android user and I also used to install custom roms on my phones but I see that things are a bit diff now.
What is the best custom rom for J4+? I need less lag on apps like Instagram (specially in the camera section), TikTok (videos lag a lot on One UI) and on games.
I see that nowadays you need to unlock the bootloader in settings and then flash some unlocking stuff on TWRP before being able to install roms? I'd need quite a guide, if anyone can help
Thank you!!
phhusson's GSIs.
This link always points to the latest release.
This link points to v313, (maybe) the last version that will work on J4+ since it is an A-only device.
Remember to use the arm-aonly image. Either Googapps or Vanilla variant is fine, it's up to you.
See here for instructions:
How to flash a Generic System Image (GSI) on Project Treble supported devices
So your device supports Project Treble, what does that mean for you? It means you can flash a Generic System Image such as LineageOS or Resurrection Remix! Enjoy AOSP-based custom ROMs! Here's a guide on how to install these ROMs.
www.xda-developers.com
This is my first Xiaomi and i come from a long history with Sony devices
Download Custom Roms For Xiaomi 12 [Android 12] | The Android Space
How to Install Custom ROM on Xiaomi 12 Stock Rom, Firmware, Android 12, XDA Developer, TWRP Recovery, Custom OS, Bootloader Unlock.
theandroidspace.com
Does anyone did this? Is this legitimate?
Unlock process is clear
TWRP is something i need and did not found much on XDA
Custom ROM like LOS, nothing (except some GSI that have many issues)
Since development for this device is basically none/inexistent here on XDA for this device i`m very suspicious about that site....
Maybe a particular variant, not all the Xiaomi12s are breakable. Reach out to the OP on that site and maybe can elaborate an answer.
Did a little digging on that site and it is not legit. It has correct instructions but files for Xiaomi 12 does not exist.
There is no TWRP for Xiaomi 12
The ROM is just a generic AOSP
It is just a scheme to get more site traffic !!!!
Hello everyone,
i want to install a custom rom for my device tecno spark 8c because the stock rom is so trash like ads limit apps i hate it i tried to search for a custom rom for my device and i didnt find any resource or link for existing custom rom for my device does any one know where i can find or if there is one i will be greatfull and thanks
While there is no custom ROM's for your device, your next bet should be GSI's or Generic System Images. These are ROM's with a one-size-fits-all design. Maybe you can search around for a custom ROM you like and see if they have a GSI available.

Here's a tutorial that I used before: https://www.xda-developers.com/flash-generic-system-image-project-treble-device/
Also, here's a minimal ROM that has a GSI available: https://havoc-os.com/
Do note that you need a GSI that matches or is a higher android version than the current system.

ok i read a little about gsi and project reble so the rom is basicaly a rom that run on anydevice because the vendor or arcitecture kinda separate from software didnt quite understand what i need is that my device to meet the terble project requierments so i am able to install it.
ok so here i found this link
https://www.getdroidtips.com/android-12-tecno-spark-8c-kg5k/
i find it before i create this thread and it shows gsi first i didnt want to use it because the rom source unknown for me i didnt know gsi and anything else i was not trusting it
ok so now if i want to search a good gsi rom compatable with my device other than this i want to know if my device compatable with project treble where can i see that and what famuos roms are have this kind like lineage ,and similar to havoc so i find the i like its features and compatble
i need some much needed enlightenment, i've noticed through the years security rom devs don't like the pensteting subject.
but if im lucky someone helps me find the balance, im coming from multi boot nexus 5 where i had a secured CopperheadOS, Nethunter with nexmon internal wifi monitor/injection support, and a third OS on my OTG (bootable) with just tor services. all fully encrypted i was very happy.
Now im trying to find a balance with a Pixel device.
Main Rom would be CalyxOS or GrapheneOS or any other secure rom.
Second rom would be Nethunter with internal monitor support, injection support is a plus.
OTG boot is a plus also.
any suggestions would be much appreciated.
P.S. im not a n00b
