[HELP] Port CM10 to Pipo M8 RK3066 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I need help and guidance to port CM10 to my tablet.
I have setup everything needed (Ubuntu with the source code and so on).
I built CM10 for my Phone (Xperia Mini Pro) without any problems (FreeXperia source), am using it right now.
If someone can point me in the right direction to port CM10 for the tablet. The tablet is rooted, I have all the system files backed up.
I followed few guides, but it fails at unpacking boot.img, do I need a custom boot img? I found one for another tablet with RK3066 cpu, how to add it to my project? Which files do I need from the tablet? The whole lib dir and etc or what?
Any help would be appreciated.

Porting ROM from Source to Unsupported Device

I'm trying to port this ROM from this git to the Desire HD. I have ported a ROM before by replacing certain system files but this seems to be a lot more advanced. I am currently here but that is only half of what I need to do. Could anyone give me some advice or a place to begin?

You have to add a source for building for your device. Look in my signature for gingerbread compilation and go the bottom of the guide. Just change names of directories as needed. It is easier to port a ROM that is already compiled. Look in the supported device forums of that ROM and port one.

[Q] [CM] Question regarding CyanogenMod development

Hey, I've been working on porting CyanogenMod 9 to my phone (Sony Xperia E - we already have CM10, but stock ICS is faster than it, and I decided to try CM9). I'm trying to follow the guide here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro I've already built CM10.1 for the Nexus 7, so I'm okay with all the breakfast nanhu and stuff.
My question is this - to make the device and vendor folders, I can use mkvendor.sh, but it says it works only for devices that:
use a standard boot.img file, using the standard Android conventions and headers. It won't work for devices that deviate from this standard (Nook Color, Touchpad, etc.).
Click to expand...

Since the Xperia E doesn't have a recovery mode, the recovery has to be built into the kernel, ie. the boot.img. Does this mean I can't use the stock ICS boot.img file for this?

Fortunately, I have a similar tablet too, but with 4.4.2. I have started working over it, to compile CWM. If you have link to working CWM or Sources, kindly do let me know. Will help me to speed up the compilation.

Hi, I have been working on Q8H A23 table for the past few weeks, but have not yet been able to compile a proper hwcomposer. Could you let me know you progress on CM for A23?

I had to stop the work for personal reason. I hope to start it again soon. BTW what sources you are using to compile? Can you share your CM Device tree for A23?

I am using cm 11 to compile. I got things to boot into lock screen, apps and so on. Got the touch screen to work just now (by turning LEGACY_TOUCHSCREEN on in InputReader.cpp, after a lot of code digging). As for the device tree, I will be happy to share it once I have everything tidy up. I use the same device tree from polaris-p1 in the A23 source code, however, with all the libhardware removed since they keep crashing with the cm11 (ie. hwcomposer). As well with blobs modules and some /egl libs . Also tried to compile hwcomposer from a13 or so source (on Internet), it runs, but much slower than without hwcomposer.
Rotation sensor also works.

Any chance of sharing that device tree?

Any help is greatly appreciated!
I have set up a ubuntu box and got the cm sources.
I followed the instructions to build the device files from boot.img
Tweaked the BoardConfig.mk and can build recoverys from source now using the stock kernel.
Only problem with this is the 'dtb' part of the recovery.img.
I use Android Image Kitchen to copy the original recovery dtb to the ones i have build.
[Q]Can anyone tell me how to build dtb in the recovery at build time?
I have downloaded the android and kernel source from LG for D620.
Source from LG
[Q] Can anyone tell me how to merge them with the CM source?
In general i need some help to build the kernel from source, the instructions in the LG source don't work for me.

Sony Z3 Tablet Ubuntu Touch WIP need your help.

Hey guys,
i'll try to get an Ubuntu Touch port running on my Tablet.
I've taken UbPorts 5-1 branch and synced it with cm12-1 cm sony source. The cm files build fine.
For the ubuntu files i removed ant-wirless to build the files.
After build finished sucessfully i added the ubuntu specific kernel configs and build again. Without any erros
Now i want to boot that baby but i don't get past the Xperia Bootloader screen.
I can't enable last_kmsg to debug the deivce because i get build errors otherwise.
So what i think of at the moment is that there are some wrong parameter for the sony boot.img ... but not sure about that.
Maybe somone of you can help me bring up that baby for us all.
Cheers
Moritz
