[Q] Porting no popular Phone

Hello users. I have one Question about Porten rom.
I have Android OT-908 and i Have Android 2.2 . This phone haven't update to 2.3.
If I ported my phone guide from guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1598713 there is a chance to create Custom rom Android GB 2.3 from phone with the same CPU ( G1 , Xperia X10 mini pro etc) ?
For Example - I'm download Android 2.3 (CM) at G1 - and I'm editing from guide to My alcatel.
Hey buddy..
As far as I know yes..
But the thing is that you need to have a custom recovery to flash it on your phone..
So you need to look for a custom recovery port too for your device...
And good luck for your efforts..

You should try to port CM from source, starting from the device files from a phone similar to yours (same cpu, you, drivers...)

Making custom ROM for Samsung Galaxy Ace II ("codina")

Hello everyone!
I'm trying to port Kali Nethunter for my Samsung Galaxy Ace II (codename "codina"). I followed Kali Nethunter porting instructions and finally got zImage file.
After that I was trying to make a boot.img file by splitting CyanogenMod 11 boot.img into 2 parts, replacing 1 with my zImage and repacking it. But the problem is that I can't get ramdisk from boot.img.
If I use boot.img from CyanogenMod, I get error
Code:
Android Magic not found in boot.img. Giving up.
I tried to get it from the official ROM, but it is packed in tar.md5. And I don't know whether I can use that ramdisk with CyanogenMod's files.
How can I finally get working flash zip that can be installed using CWM?
I can't use links yet, so I attached them in links.txt (links to sources, ROMs and instructions that I use).
Thanks for help!

Acer E600 flash with another firmware

Hi all! Is it possible to flash the smartphone with the firmware of other vendor? For example, this Acer has CPU Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 400 and Samsung galaxy Grand 2 also has this CPU, GPU is also the same Adreno 305. I suppose something may not work, but what i have to do to flash this firmware for at least to boot? Acer is rooted, CWM is installed. What the issues could I have for flashing and booting?
The second option is to build Cyanogenmod custom firmware.
Any help is welcome
Flashing anything not made for your device will likely brick it. So that's not a good idea. :good:
It would be easier to build your own CyanogenMod than it would be to try to get a Samsung rom to boot on another device.
not possible

Hy! Sorry for my bad english. I tried to port a MIUI7 from the ZTE V5 RedBull (from original miui page) rom and the system is booted up but the wifi, the sound, BT, rotation doesnt worked (not hard to fix, but the miui rom had a security by the original developer so if I modify something in system, I got a popup after restart that this is a pirate version of this rom :S
Thank you for replies!

Could you tell what the sequence of activities you have done? You also have Acer E600 and just flashed MIUI7 from ZTE V5 or the firmware need some changes?

I also have an E600 Here is everything what need:
First you need a stock E600 flashable zip rom. You can do this with dsixda kitchen from the system and boot image.
Download the ZTE RedBull MIUI rom: http://en.miui.com/download-243.html
Rom porting how-to: http://en.miui.com/thread-70745-1-1.html (do every step except the boot.img editing)
Then comes the boot.img
1. Unpack the e600 and the zte boot image with Android Image Kitchen
2. Open the split_img folder in the unpacked E600 boot image, copy and overwrite everything except the boot.img-ramdisk.cpio.gz to the ZTE unpacked boot split_img folder.
3. Repack the ZTE boot image
Reboot the phone to cwm, install the ported zip to phone then flash the modified ZTE boot.img
any update on the custom rom?
have the issues fixed?
thanks.
