Hi XDA,
I got 4 months ago a new smartphone: Allview P5 Mini, running Android 4.0.4. It seems Allview isn't going to make us "happy" and make a firmware update to Jelly Bean and no developer wants to make a custom ROM for it, so I want to make my own one. The problem is that I don't really know the Java or C++ Language so I am worse than a noob.. I don't know how to start and I am very scared about my device getting bricked after I am going to root it or after I will flash the Custom ROM or Kernel. All I've "worked" on Android until now is editing the build.prop, rooting my TF101 and flashing a custom ROM and Kernel (got it bricked 4 times) and that's all ..
So again, all I need is someone helping me to start, code, edit, design, create etc. for my first Custom ROM for my Allview P5 Mini.
Thank you very much for helping me!

Dear All,
I am not a technical expert in this field. I have a Custom ROM, (MT6572 Scatter file) which runs fine on a chinese android phone (similar to samsng S3 mini) . I need to run on a campatible Samsung, huwawei, Qmobile or Gfive phones.
I need some urgent help, or if you can refer someone in Pakistan (or abroad) who can tell me how to fit my custom ROM on the compatible models.
Please help, your experience and expert suggestions can make a difference here
Looking forward to hearing from you
Hello everyone, I purchased a HTM M1 riding a SoC MTK6572, but unfortunately are not available cooked roms and so I wanted to try to make a port from a device with the same soc, here I found this guide which is quite clear:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701283
Now I have some doubts, for one thing I do not have a decent stock rom of my phone, but I have backups made with MTKdroidtool and a Nandroid backup of my stock rom, can I use Nandroid backup to do the porting?
Do you know tell me a device that has cooked rom with MTK6572 from which to take a rom for porting?
There is a risk of brick the phone with this simple procedure?
Thank you
anyone can help me?
Hi i am a beginner in Porting ROM (or should i say completely 0) .. i have had no experience in porting or modding, but i am on my way to doing so
i have a Firefly S120 [Cubot C11] MT6572 Device with me, and i am trying to port some ROM for my phone, i'm following some TuT i found here
first i tried porting a LeWa OS v5 for Micromax A77 to my Device since they are both MT6572 Devices, so i followed the "Porting From Same SoC" Guide, after i compiled my ROM, i Got a Corrupted Boot Logo, like a line of distorted colors or so and no boot animations so i think it is bricked
second, i tried porting a Non-LeWa OS Custom ROM for Lenovo A830 so i followed the "Porting From Different SoC" Guide, after i flashed the ROM, a Lenovo Splash Screen Appeared, it tookabout 2 minutes and then i was stuck on a bootloop .. i think it has something to do with the boot.img since i didn't understand that part clearly
a friend of mine told me that my kernel was outdated and that was the reason why i am failing on my ports, but the other one told me i have the one and only kernel for Jelly Bean (v3.4.5)
so i posted this here, hoping someone can help me out where did i go wrong here .. thank you everyone :fingers-crossed:
