[Q] Can some one help me port a recovery?

Hello.
I have a Samsung Galaxy W I8150 aka Samsung Ancora. There are now forums for this phone yet, and no custom roms, etc. I've managed to root it with zergRush. I am not a developer (yet) but I have quite few computer skills. I am IT beginer (working as system administrator), but I have some programming skills.
Now I would like to give something to the community at XDA forum. So I've decieded that I will try to port some of the costum recovery (CWM, AmonRa, or some other) on my phone. Well my first problem is that samung has this Odin instead of recovery like HTC, so I would need some instuructions (or links with instructions), that will help me started.
PLEASE if any of you could point me into the right direction, and explain me the bascis, how this recovery stuff work, I would really apreciate that!
Have a nice day all of you!

beginner help to porting ROM?

I've been trying to port a ROM from the Nexus S to my Motorola Photon and I keep getting either error 7 in CWM or bootloops in recovery before actually loading boot animation. I'm pretty new to porting and Android in general. I understand every ROM/phone is different when porting ROMs so there is no set guide of exactly what files to move, but is there any generic list of what to try to work from to atleast get it bootable? Both ROMS are ICS based, using CM9 as a base and tried many combinations of moving files into the base but they all seem to result in bootloops or CWM errors.. I can't seem to find a list to work off of to some degree or a way to figure out whats wrong and why I'm hitting bootloops. There must be a way to diagnose this and I just haven't found it yet? ANY insight or advice is appreciated, usually a quick learner but I'm just at a wall here and not sure where to turn. Thanks in advance.
Edit: Figured out the status 7 in CWM was caused by my updater scipt, so it flashes now but still gets stuck in bootloops at bootanimation and I cant find a way to logcat it.
Here is a step by step procedure: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1598713
I am also trying to port cm7 to ace plus but bootloops... If you find some way plz tell me too... I teied almost all gguides none worked....i tried to port from galaxy s and galaxy ace none worked....
