Uhm... Nobody has actually addressed the lack of Mali drivers yet AFAIK
That might be something to start with

haha nope..just noticed that the drivers are needed and needed addressing like you told me the other day...hence why i think people will find it hard to work on the port cause even with the source drivers are still needed if i am correct. anyway whatever happens i hope you guys make this happen....
sure some ninja droid out there will work his magic on it
EDIT: since no one has taken the courtesy to make a thread in GENERAL section to keep all NON dev posts there i will be creating one...once i have the thread up and running if someone can put the link in big red letters so people can see and keep this thread clean i would appreciate it..hope you devs dont mind
EDIT 2: Thread is now up and running for anyone who wants to ask questions and just wants to leave posts regarding ETA and stuff like that which is for general talk...Lets keep this thread for pure ICS port only related posts thanks...

I'm not sure if this is correct...... I think they had a driver but needed the AOSP dump in order to get it working..... (see below)
"It is possible for us to do it, but not within a reasonable timeframe. By the time we are able to complete the port, AOSP would already be released.
The userspace Mali driver from Galaxy Tab 7 Plus had too many incompatibilities with the kernelspace Mali driver. Malidevelopers does have a newer driver, but it takes a long time to be able to integrate that into our current kernels. That's our motivation for abandoning this project. But we'll pick it up once AOSP gets released, really soon
Thanks for all the support guys."

Yes there is a difference between the AOSP and Samsung ROMs, the Samsung ROM (when it comes) will come with the Mali 400 driver fully integrated into the kernel. Until that ROM comes out, any attempt to get ICS working will involve hacking a honeycomb Mali 400 driver into ICS in order to get it working. Apparently this is easier to do now the AOSP for ICS has dropped, easier that is than trying to port from the SDK. Obviously it would be much easier if Sammy released an official version of ICS but then this thread would be obsolete and we'd all be using some flavour or other of the official Samsung ROM.
Bottom line is, any chance of us getting a working ICS ROM before the official samsung release is down to these guys hacking a driver, probably the honeycomb one from the new Galaxy Tab 7 plus, into AOSP ICS.
If I am wrong on any of the above points please feel free to correct me

Ehm, you still use galaxy nexus drivers?
Galaxy nexus drivers doesnt work on sgs2

I think he uses the tab 7 plus drivers... correct me if I'm wrong.
Why is the Ui crashing.. that is the question...
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App

We still have a very early Alpha build, ICS just boots and we still have to add the Galaxy S II sensors etc. I'm working on this now.

Which one is the best? (There's a twist to this question - read inside) :)

Hello everybody,
To be honest, I haven't been reading the rules recently but I realized from one other topic that asking for ROM recommendation here is the forbidden thing...
Therefore, dear moderator and/or admin, before you pull the trigger and delete or lock this topic, please read this post till the end. Who knows, maybe it survives...
Having in mind that P7500 and P7510 had very limited official distribution of ICS for some reason, majority of users of Tab 10.1 are still at Honeycomb (yours truly as well).
I have definitely decided to make a move and do something about that but I need a bit of a help. A guidance, clarification and simplification of what are my choices.
Is it possible to make a kind of overview of the current Android versions offer for this specific tablet? What I'm aiming at is the short summary of which functions/features are buggy/unavailable under which Android versions. So, I am not asking for recommendation of the particular ROMs, but the version of Android I should pursue.
To summarize: Could you help me select the appropriate version of Android (v4, v4.1 or v4.2) for Tab 10.1 by pointing out what does not work (properly) in them?
Thank you very much for helping!
Bye!
We hear you.I will not delete it or lock it.
But hey look how the... we are moving as we speak incredible
Sent from my GT-I9300
I'm researching this exact question for a frend who just recieved one of these tablets. I'd definitely be interested in seeing something like this. (Actually, it'd be awesome to see a comparo/feature list for Roms for all the individual devices here on xda)
I ABSOLUTELY hate it when developers writes "You tell me" in the Bugs section of the first post of ROM threads. The only way to know if the ROM suitable for me is to try it out, and this is hard for some people who are always pretty busy in their lives. Of course, you can read the posts to find out the bugs, but sometimes that doesn't help much. It would be much easier if the developers just list the bugs in current version of the ROM (these are often told by users), and update the post when the bugs fixed.
Suggest a suitable ROM
Suggest a suitable ROMs, that are available for my TAB 10.1 (WiFi + GSM) in 4.1.1 / 4.1.2/ .......
I really do not understand the abbrv... P4, P4wifi, p4tmo, p4vzw, only for GSM or only for wifi
Now I am using "JellyBeanRom ICS v7 + A1 Kernel V1.8.3 + Voice Call Enable Stock ICS 4.0.4 ROM Build 1
Thank you for allowing us to ask such questions

p4 = WiFi + 3G (some call it the international release / global release version of Tab 10.1) aka P7500
p4wifi = WiFi only version aka P7510
p4tmo = T-Mobile version
p4vzw = Verizon Wireless version
Suitable ROMs depends on u mainly... I am using the same ROM as what u are using right now.

I hate that too...but sometimes, not everyone face the same problems/bugs. Not everyone have bugs. Some may have the bug that u have, some may not be having it. Unless the devs themsleves are facing it then it'll be listed. If not, then it should be fixed. But, if u are facing any bugs even when in the OP says there is no bugs, just ask for assistance then. Hence. the "You Tell Me" statement in the bugs section. :good:

[Q] need BBM for Atrix 4G Android 2.3.6

Hello i am new on this site on android & on forum. kindly can any one help me? i need BBM for android 2.3.6 i tryed to install BBM from this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2496483
but its not working & pop up window open saying Sorry! The application BBM (process com.bbm) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. Fore close.
Can any one help me please.
No, you need to ask the developers, but I highly doubt they will listen
All force-closes create a logcat entry. It would be nice if people would provide the extra information found therein more often...
Ok, reading the post provided, the op sais you need to extract some libs and push them to /system/lib. did you pushed them?

I've tried that and it didn't work. It needs more development or wait until we have a complete functional Kernel and update to the latest Android version available.

"wait until we have a complete functional kernel"....so we don't have a complete functional kernel for GB (2.3.6, like your thread states you have and are looking for help with)? i'm sorry, but you have no idea what you're talking about and clearly haven't read anything. a 30 page thread and countless complaints about fc, no activity since October. go post something like this over in that thread or contact the dev directly. on top of that, the dev's account has been disabled, which pretty much means drop it and move on.
"latest Android version available" - officially for us 2.3.6 rev 145, unofficially 4.2.2 (stable)/4.3 (semi-stable), 4.4 in idk what early stage of dev (contact epinter for update, but not an eta)
I have no idea what i'm talking about? Excuse me ohh allmighty lord who knows everything. I have a question for you. What is the minimum android version required to run BBM? 4.0 right? Do we have that officially? No, so we have to flash custom roms. Maybe he didnt because he wants everything working at 100% and sticks with GB. The dev of BBM for 2.3.6 isnt developing the app anymore so we need yo wait until that app gets to work on GB or wait for a complete and functional kernel for the devs bring to us a fully functional Android ROM based on 4.3-4.4. LEARN to read before treat someone like a stupid 5years old kid.

D803 Rom "porting" requests, please write them here!

Mods, if this is in the wrong section, please move it.
*sorry for the bad english*
Alright, the purpose of this thread is simple. I made this with the intention of uniting all of the d803 users, and give them the opportunity to post a request for a rom they would like to see on their d803's that is available for other variants such as the d802. At the moment, I've found a way to "port" only d802 roms to the d803, and by port I mean making some slight changes that allow the rom to boot in our devices without any or with the least issues possible. These two devices are very similar hardware-wise, so software wise it doesnt change much.
If there's any D802 rom that you would like to see on our D803, feel free to leave a reply and I will do my best to move my gears and upload it so you guys can have it! As we all know, the development scene for the Canadian variant isnt as active as the d801 or D802, and with this I aim to end that barrier by trying to make those roms available to our device
Too long didnt read version:
If the rom exists for the D802, post a reply and I will try to make it available for the D803
Disclaimer:
I am in no way a developer, I simply edit files and put them in the right place so it boots for us. I do this to help fellow d803 users.
If I helped with a file, always make a nandroid backup just in case things go haywire. Anything that happens to your phone is your responsibility.
Everything I submit gets tested rigorously on my own G2 before being posted to ensure its working, but we all get different results, so the experience might vary. Just a heads up.

To port any ROM to any version just download your devices patch from dr87's Mahdi ROM thread then all u gotta do is change out the boot IMG, a few lines in the build prop n updater script then flash ROM, gapps, the patch then your good. We had a similar patch for toro on the gnex forum and I was waiting for the day someone put one together for us seeing as all g2's use the same mainboard. The days of worrying about whether your variant will get support is finally over, for aosp Roms at least. I'm gonna try doing it w a stock ROM to see if that works cuz that's something I'd really love to see. Cuz as a vs980 owner I can say from experience that our stock ROM development is lacking compared to the d802 or f320

Well I meant it more in a way for those who don't understand much about editing the updater script and exchanging the boot.IMG. with what I'm offering all they have to do is ask the ROM and I'll post it online with said changes in case they don't know how to do it. Something like a small favor for everyone, but thanks for the reply!

Could you possibly make a quick tutorial on how to do this? or possibly direct me to where i could find one?
Hi, I was looking at your old thread about how you could port d802 roms to d803. I was wondering if you could port cyanogenmod 11 snapshot m12. http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=d802 i would really appreciate it. and it seems like u are good at what u do so you should maybe consider building for d803 for cyanogenmod. thousands of d803 users have been waiting for cyanogenmod support but to this day have recieved none. anyways if u could port it i would really appreciate it! thanks!
can you make lollippop rom pls

[Request][Info] MIUI 8 for Angler - Resource thread

To start off...
Im aware this question has been asked before. But instead of leading with "does someone want to do this for me" while I make zero contribution is not my aim.
I have compiled what seems to me a valid course of action to Port MIUI 8 to Angler and am looking for a couple Devs/Hobbyists that want to hop in with me and get it done.
Dont like MIUI?
Think it's a waste of time?
Cool, There are a ton of Xposed and Stock rom threads to go and spend your time trolling on.
Now, on to the data...

}
There have been a lot of setbacks in the last couple years when it comes to MIUI. The OS itself was dated and based off of 4.4 Kit Kat. There weren't many advantages to porting MIUI 7 to Hammerhead. And since Hammerhead shipped with 5.0 out of the box, it also was an uphill climb that no one wanted to take on, Understandably.
But now with Angler and Hammerhead being 6.0.1 as well as MIUI 8 being based on 6.0.1 the process becomes a lot more clear.
How Clear? There are even SnapDragon 810 devices now (Mi Note Pro) that are OEM MIUI 8.
I have made some progress in porting MIUI 8 to Angler based off of CM13 but have ran into some snags and need some Dev's/Advanced users who are much smarter than me to get it done.
Following this thread:
http://www.osbusters.net/2015/11/how-to-port-miui-7-rom-to-qualcomm-smartphones.html
I have been making headway and just got my Macbook Air formatted with ubuntu and got the kitchen and various other tools installed to start making needed adjustments. But honestly I feel like what is needed to get this project off the ground is some simple optimizations and changes through linux that I just truly dont have experience with.
So, you do?
And you want to lend some time possibly?
Let me know.
Thanks, AdA.

Hi, I recently made an attempt at porting it from the Yu Yureka and could not get it to boot. I would be happy to share my work with you because I would like to use this rom on my Nexus 6P.
I would be extremely happy to see that happing. Don't know if I can contribute (always failed when trying to port previous miui versions) but I will mark this thread !!!
-As far as I understand there is no miui 8 global beta for xiaomi note pro, or did I miss anything?
-I tried the suggested JoelDroid Lollipop Batch Deodexer tool with MIUI 7.5 and it failed at "Boot.oat Extraction"
-> so I am stuck at the very beginning...

There's currently an alpha for the mi note pro (I'm running it on my note pro) however it's based on lollipop not Marshmallow

You should use the same Android version, otherwise it will be too complicated or impossible at all.
how far did you get into the process? looping boot animation? Splash screen? does it boot into the OS? Have any logs? I would be willing to help in this process.
So turns out skw5115 is correct. The Xiaomi Mi Note and Mi Note "Pro" are completely different chipsets. The Note "Pro" being Snapdragon 810 and the Regular Note being 801. After looking more deeply into my extracted port rom it became very apparent that I had over looked that minute but critical piece of information.
What is strange is that the 810 is running 5.1 Lollipop and from what I can tell from some digging that the 801 is indeed running 6.0.1?
The Snapdragon 820 is in the Mi5/Pro.
Anyone have any input on whether it would be better to try and make a stab at porting the Mi Note 6.0.1 Rom or the Mi5/Pro 6.0.1 rom?
Thanks, AdA

I had not tried to flash anything quite yet I was going to submit my current Port Rom to someone who wanted to take a look at it before I pulled the trigger on a flash.
The internet was down for pretty much the entire state of Florida from 10am till about 4pm today so once I get home tonight and get a chance to get in front of my desktop and ubuntu machine I can't send you what I got. But I will.:fingers-crossed:
Appreciate it,

So you are not willing to flash it but want others to? You really need to test it yourself. What kind of snags did you run into? Also, Linux is not required for porting miui. All the tools you need are available for windows

Wow, No. Never said that. just never ported any stuff 6.0 related. Thought someone could look through it and see if they see anything that I might have messed up on. The .Dat files are all new to me as well so decompressing and recompressing them was a new treat.
I appreciate your willingness to get involved but lets keep from jumping to conclusions...
Im not a Dev. Just a guy trying to get this done in his spare time, following a guide, running into snags, researching them, and now that I felt like I had a better grip on what I was getting into I decided to reach out for some second opinions/guidance. I have bricked enough phones in my lifetime, so sending what I got to someone with some more knowledge to look it over before I pull the trigger isn't unreasonable...
Any input on whether I should try to make a new build based off of the Snapdragon 820 or 801 based 6.0.1? Instead of the Mi Note Pro 5.1...
Thanks,
AdA

Sorry didn't mean to sound like a douche. Im not a dev either but miui does not require a dev to port it. The Mi5 with the 820 would be the one I would try first. Where are you getting your miui Roms from? You shouldn't have to recompress the day images either, unless you want to. Do you have a Windows PC? Hit me up on hangouts [email protected]

I have found a Fastboot image for the Mi5 but no recovery .zip yet. But miui 8 for mi5 sd820 does exist.
http://www.xiaomidevice.com/blog/miui-8-china-alpha-rom-download/
I don't think it is a good idea to port a ROM bases on a different Android version AND/OR CPU chipset.
It's late, way later than I thought I would be up messing around with this project but I have it bootlooping! Have it uploading now, will post the link in the morning if anyone wants to mess around with it. Tomorrow ill run some logcats and see where im at and post a more detailed update of what needs to be done.
Gnight ,
AdA
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?a=show&w=files&flid=18823 this is where I get the miui roms from. these are already decompressed and easy to edit.

Not getting an ADB connection or any connection for that matter when it is at bootscreen and plugged in.
Is there another way of getting a Logcat? Not too familiar with that process...
I attempted to port MIUI v7 from Mi5 using CM13.0 nightly. I got adb running at boot, it is clearly in bootloop mode throwing some sick fatal codes in logcat. Could be something I did, could be numerous things. I'll post the boot.img, the flashable ZIP I created, will also post a logcat shortly.
Boot.img (flash using Fastboot method):
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-XY4f_OwITFc2tKNExjb2tSbE0
If you want the zip I created send me a PM I'll send the link, I'm pretty sure I know what happened but then again I could be wrong. I might just try to get v8 alpha for Mi5 and port it using stock mtc19x...
I have flashed both worst thing that happened was my phone got encrypted again but simple fix.
**BUT SERIOUSLY CANNOT EMPHASIZE THIS ENOUGH MAKE A BACKUP IN TWRP AND TO BE SAFE COPY IT TO YOUR PC**
Just to be clear I am not responsible for your device messing up in anyway, I am not a developer just followed instructions from another forum.
______
UPDATE:
Ported using Mi5 6.7.11_v8-6.0 ... good news is yes it flashes but still getting bootloop logcat shows LESS fatal/errors than my previous build but still not booting up fully... I'd be happy to share the zip with anyone who wants it again just PM me. Logcats will be available later gonna try to narrow it down myself... we will see how that goes.

No logs, no detailed descriptions, no support. I've asked for someone to test the build on the DualSIM variant a few days ago. You were among those who answered but didn't provide any feedback. So i went ahead and released a version that is tested on the SingleSIM Variant and now there's 4 people complaining about DualSIM support?
less than 12 Hours of creating this thread I already regret touching Sony devices again...
Also, did you really have to quote all of the OP...?

It was 3 days ago and all you ask was how did it work regarding the dual sim, in your other thread, but with all do respect not to many are willing to or for that matter going to down grade to Android 8 , I guess that's the last version to test something that is a bit vague in detail.. so that alone pretty much kill your lack of feedback..
Now take a second and look at where most of your so called issues and questions are coming from ..our newer members due to many a lack of details on how to flash, which gapps to use ect.
which to be honest should be in the op but mainly their lack of experience and an allergic reaction to the search button..
Sony may have it's faults and nobody here twisted your are to release the rom but your lack of information is more than likely the reason for half ass answers and or problems.

Your post is an in depth explanation of what is wrong with the Sony community. The OP design is the exact same used on ALL CarbonROM XDA Threads, yet the Xperia XZ Premium and XZ1 community are the ONLY people complaining about it. Surely this is a me issue. Perfectly outlined by your assumption that the builds I released were Oreo. Heck, I even attached a picture of the XZ1 and XZP running those VERY builds I linked that said Android 9. I'm not obliged to do anything. I release those builds because it's a fun hobby. Constantly spoon feeding people because they refuse to do their research is not on that list.
There is no such thing as "which gapps to use". Ever. On any device. Go to any stupid GApps website and download the GApps that match YOUR taste. If you need advice on arm vs arm64 and which android version then you're wrong in this forum.
less than 24 hours into the thread creation and I consider closing it again. Thats gotta be a new high.

Pictures.. where as there aren't any posted on the but the logo for the rom on the lab app.. I personally haven't look at the rom on other various devices but have glanced at it here, as you said and posted the format is the same simple copy and paste, no screenshots, no flashing instructions no mention of a bug list if there are any.. so maybe the format may need a tweak or two for us slow xz1 and xz premium folks..and if the lack of info in the op causes a few questions to be asked ..then feel to take you ball and go home..

Yah I believe lack of info cause some issues. Like if you came from lineage 16 dsds and have the dsds twrp you can't flash this rom. You need to flash the single sim xz1twrp in the lineage16 thread.

It's not only this one, but in my case I run a stock rom with existenz patch, with one twrp, then to flash beetle84 ( excuse the spelling) add on, I need the aroma trwp version , then to flash j4nn's kernel you need to flash the DS twrp.. but that's another story.. but the only.point I was trying to get across lack of info in the op , your going to get questions...

Screenshots can be found on our website on this thing called Gallery. Cool huh?
Theres no buglist because theres no need for any. Our official builds have to pass fairly strong criteria before going official and are tested on the devices before going official. I never announced or claimed the Dual SIM variant would be supported.
As for flash instructions I expect users to be capable enough to use Google and do their research. If they are unable to do that, they shouldn't bother messing with Custom ROMs to begin with.
Literally the first Google result for the query "flash Android ROM" is a detailed guide from XDA which would work just fine.
However, thanks for pointing out yet again how fitting your username is. Seeing you're not interested in using Carbon nor are using it right now I'd kindly ask you to refrain from further posts in this thread.
Thanks.

Here's a random thought. What if a zip that doesn't install on the Dual SIM TWRP with an error saying its for the Single SIM variant, is actually for the Single SIM variant?
My offer still stands. I'm willing to look into Dual SIM support of someone with a Dual SIM device volunteers testing. Until then and from now on I'm either going to ignore each and every complaint about the Dual SIM support or value it with some kind of sarcastic reply depending on how I feel.
I spent countless hours working on these devices in my own free time using my own Money to pay for PC Hardware and other expenses. Yet, instead of some kind of appreciation, even if its just the simplest "thank you" post, I get people like @lilbrat *****ing at me for not spoon-feeding people with results from Google queries or worse. Too sad the Sony community hasn't changed in the last two years.
Thankfully, due to multiple reasons, the XZ1 and XZP were my last Sony phones ever, with the community being one of the biggest factors. Shame how the old Sony community turned into this.
I knew I should've left the phones in that dusty corner on my desk instead of putting any time into it.
Thanks so much for your efforts and remember you are here in xda to develop and help each other and others not to debate or criticize or show muscles. thanks again and i think carbon rom is one if the best so don't close the thread and keep up the good work

Screenshots can be found on our website on this thing called Gallery. Cool huh?
Theres no buglist because theres no need for any. Our official builds have to pass fairly strong criteria before going official and are tested on the devices before going official. I never announced or claimed the Dual SIM variant would be supported.
As for flash instructions I expect users to be capable enough to use Google and do their research. If they are unable to do that, they shouldn't bother messing with Custom ROMs to begin with.
Literally the first Google result for the query "flash Android ROM" is a detailed guide from XDA which would work just fine.
However, thanks for pointing out yet again how fitting your username is. Seeing you're not interested in using Carbon nor are using it right now I'd kindly ask you to refrain from further posts in this thread.
Thanks.
