It clearly states it only works on a select group of phones but someone could test it. It might work but i doubt it

Don't think so. Modules or kernel must be made for that.

Yes, it still stands, but i found out that CM10.1 is currently impossible to make, so you can try with MIUI V5.

so how did you make the nexus rom for it?
The issue is that I do not own the phone, but I am looking at porting CM to MTK6589.
MIUI porting is a bit different, it would not involve kernel compiling per se I believe (CM either, but I would like to).
To give it a go, I would need info from here:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro
So your ROM version, partition info etc.
When I manage to port to a device I own, I can give it a go.

It's not really Nexus ROM, it's just stock ROM modified to look like stock Android.
I have Android 4.2.1
I will PM you the partition info.

i compiled my first recovery based on cm 10.1 for Thl W8.
I have no easy way to push the image to the phone to test.
If it works, I can start to create a recovery for this phone based on sources.
I would need that info I requested.
Are you able to post the build.prop file and the partition dump?
Look at the page with instructions I posted earlier.
Meantime I look for an easy way to flash that recovery, somehow sp flashtool does not read the scatter file created by mtkdroidtools .
cheers
managed to flash it, but it does not work , just a black screen .
Harder than it looks.
Can't promise anything, but I'll post if I get further.
Compiling on an old C2D now, so it takes time .

So, like I requested before, please :
- post your build.prop file
- post identification stuff of the device, like screen resolution, memory and recovery.fstab (or the recovery image)
- in general take a look at the link I posted before and read it, so you know what info is needed :
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro
The reason I ask is because there are at leat 2 different versions, 1 had 960x480 screen and 1/4gb ram/rom, the other 1280x720 and 2/8.
They obviously at least have different partitions and displays and perhaps even other different hardware.
You can also post a full working ROM on dropbox or something.
thanks
P.S. for the needed tools, see here:

This is a CWM 6.0.3.3 which works on my device.
Use SP Flash Tools 3.13 something to flash.
My scatter file is attached, please compare it with yours.
Needless to say perhaps, but still: this is on your own risk.
You may damage your device if you do not know what you are doing.
Bricking it is not my fault!
So think before you act.
If you try: please give feedback if it works.
If does it is the same device: N9389 5.3", 960x480 (qHD) , 1 gb ram, 4 gb rom.

Hi,
Well I am partly motivated by your offer, but I enjoy Android and Linux hacking.
Let's hope those attempts will lead to something.
How about LewaOS? There are good porting guides for that.
I will try to look for MIUI or CM in the weekend.
Initial CM would miss dual sim support.
Maybe MIUI is easier, because some work has been done.
Well, I'll see.
Don't overestimate the complexity, if you have CM 6 and made it yourself, porting a rom is doable I suppose ?
cheers

[Q] tv overal

Hello

There is an app that allows you to deactivate root for a certain time if I remember well, whereas can't remember the name of it at the moment.

Can someone confirm this adapted version still works with a rooted phone ? I need at least to be able to record programs in the TV guide, as I use this a lot. This is the only thing preventing me from rooting my phone (SGS 4)

No sadly it says tv overall has stoped. It would be needs if someone find a solution for that. Because I want to use it to.

Hello
I've tested it out on different versions. It's always the same problem. You can see tv but you can't go to the tv guide. It's loading and than it says application has stoped. What i do now is using an older version. Version 2.6.1. With this version you can see the tv guide and record programs on your decoder.
With the newest version the xprivacy is not working. You still have the rooting message. I think you have something in the tv guide when you open it , that it also checks root. I really hope that someone can find a good solution for this problem.

Xposed Installer with module Rootcloak works also. First you have to add the TV overal application in the rootcloak list.

Huh, all the partitions are different on mine. Guessing because of different variants?
Finally, someone starting to get into this phone. Hopefully more Devs will get involved with creating Roms, Recoveries, etc... Hope this thread blows up too a high popularity so we could start flashing fever!!! Sucks that ATT has the exclusives on the phone. Bad choice by Samsung. Would of given the phone a better chance of being more popular if it were in other service companies. Ordered my phone today and should get it soon. Let's hope enough Devs get this phone so we can have a nice choice of Roms. Crossing my fingers!!!
Does this Root work for the ATT version???

CF Root doesn't work for AT&T devices because AT&T locks bootloaders. To be blunt, unless the Note 4 community finds an exploit that applies to the Alpha as well, we're SOL in terms of root and custom ROMs.
I've started to setup the first git repositories and imported the kernel to build the twrp recovery. I don't have the phone yet but probably will get one soon.

Huawei Ascend Y6, do any ROMs exist?

Hello, so I've bought a Huawei Ascend Y6, and it's on its way. I didn't realize that there seems to be a lack of support for third party OS's before I've bought it. I see threads about other devices that have lots of work built around them, some of them being Huawei products, but none seem to match this exact model. I'm finding nothing either here, or through search engines.
So if nobody's written a ROM for this Huawei phone, am I out of luck and just stuck with the stock OS? I'd appreciate help very much, thanks.

Yes, I believe the phone is also just called the Huawei Y6! My model is the SCL-L04, so I could also give you some details on that if you need any, and if it would help you. Do you have any links to your work on this? I'd love to try finally installing a new OS on this phone, (though I'm not sure how to do it with this locked down bootloader).
