[Q] Porting ROMs - HTC Desire X

I'm about to give it a go with ROM porter tool
but I wan't to ask something initially,
if my phone is android 4.1 (custom rom) , can I port and use a 4.3 rom from somewhere else?
I am also aware that I need to make sure the phones specs are similar, what specs should be similar (pixel density, processor, screen size/resoloution, etc).
Can I use a custom rom for DX as a base?
If anyone knows any similar phones to the DX i will be very greatful
I also asume if I fail miserably I can simply boot into recovery and restore my backup too

I don't want to be rude but if you don't know how to update stock roms, how you can think porting roms?
You have to know how are working libs and decompile apks/jars.
And with Rom porter tool if you click a button the Rom is not ported.

No offense taken,
I have updated my stock rom ages ago btw , it was reverting back using ruu that was something that I wasn't clear on (wasn't sure if the hboot changed) because i didn't make a back-up.
This is gonna sound really naive of me but I watched the video with the rom porter tool and it seems complicated but the steps to port in the software seem fairly easy to follow too, plus if it doesn't work, I simply restore my backup :victory:
I don't think I have much to lose tbh...

I didn't stop you doing it but if we don't have a stable CM how can people use your ported Rom without Bluetooth and WiFi working?

I wasn't aware of that tbh, but what if i base my rom off something like fulmix which does not have bugs, i'm sure that there is a stable version of cm on another handset that is able to be ported or am I missing something?

You miss something. If you want to port AOSP-based Roms you have to use CM as base, if you want to port Sense-based Roms you have to use stock sense 4+ Rom.

I think i understand now :cyclops:
because there are no stable versions of cyanogenmod for dx, the possiibilty to port a rom is not going to be as good as you will carry the bugs from the base cyanogenmod over to the ported rom.
Now, if i use cm9, does that mean that I can only use ported roms that support ics or can i use a ported jb rom on cm9 base? im talking about this cm mod http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2265338 (i am aware of the several bugs btw
-Bluetooth
-GPS
-Video recorder
-Internal memory
-Wifi tethering
-USB tethering)

You cannot port JB roms over ICS roms and viceversa, this because the kernel won't boot both of them.

Ouch,
So the main issue is trying to find a stable version of CM that runs JB or higher to use as a base to port roms over. But trying to fix the bugs are difficult because it is hard to find the problem and the CM website have not even released CM for dx.

ROM port request...

Hey all...
Now that the official ICS has seen light of day, can I request some dev to make an official AOSP ICS ROM port from the GNEXUS devices...
In fact, I don't mind doing it myself if anyone can just point me in the right direction...I went through the guide here to port ROMs, but the thing is, all the downloaded stock ROMs are .img files and don't contain folders I can edit...
Who can help me...again, I don't mind making an attempt myself...any1??

If you are on cdma (i don't see you are american so i doubt it) on droidhive there is a cm9 based on ics so camcodere hw accel etc, if you are on gsm there is only the miui. The dev have some problem making the data working with the gsm patch on ics. So you can use the miui or wait the dev can fix the gsm patch (or if you are good on this help them fix it )

[ROM] JoyOs 1.2.2 (Clean Port) [GB][UBL] 66mb! + Kitchen 'The Port Hub'

Hello People of XDA!
You may have seen this ROM before, but the ports have been messy with files that our device does not use. I have rebuilt this ROM myself using FXP125 Base ROM and the latest JoyOs 1.2.2
During my porting adventure, I ran into alot of problems getting things to work. But after about 20 fresh installs, I managed to get a fully working clean ROM.
The ROM however has one issue. The two lights between the bottom buttons do not work. I don't know why, maybe one of you could shed some light on the subject.
I have NOT Kanged this release BUT feel free to modify and distribute better versions, after all it is open source
Link to download: http://www.mediafire.com/?2dw7h70s2l1u4pe (66.12MB)
Install Procedure: Unlocked Bootloader Only
*Use the backup/restore feature in CWM Recovery to avoid loss of data.
1. Download Ckernel CM7 from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26638116&postcount=51
*Credit lies with Championswimmer for the Kernel
2. Download this ROM & copy to your SDCard
3. Flash Ckernel CM7 using Flashtools (will add links later)
4. Boot into Recovery and format dalvik cache, cache, data & system
5. Install .zip using CWM Recovery
6. Reboot device and wait for cache to rebuild
7. Do a second reboot for all apps to display. (torch, filemanager)
8. Enjoy
I will probably try and port other ROM's if requests are made.
PLEASE READ OP BEFORE ADDING NOOB COMMENTS. If you dont know how to flash a Kernel or unlock your bootloader, search the forum because its all there.
Bugs
-no hw LED's
-low fps recording on video camera. Photo camera works perfect with auto-focus
-waiting for reports by testers
Thank you for trying my version of this ROM.
NEW KITCHEN!!! Introducing... The Port Hub
I have made my own little basic kitchen to help port roms. If you like porting roms, this maybe useful to you.
http://www.mediafire.com/?31r3wz0z35sgwg4
You dont even need to download base rom, files have been included from FXP125 base, just put your port in the PORT folder and use the One click.bat
If it does not zip the rom, install 7zip before zipping!

nope you cnt use ,use FXP kernel or posted kCernel (link) in OP.. :good:
I am not sure, try it! but make sure to flash wifi modules. Otherwise, try CKernel, it is one of the best kernels.

I used DoomKernel a while ago, but now to me it feels outdated so I use Ckernel. But DoomLords Kernel is very stable and it may run on this version but I cannot say that I have tried it. but yes, as I am using a FXP base, an FXP based Kernel is needed
Just installed it and soo far soo good I would love to see lewa OS port from you, thx for this rom, smooth and fast, so far no bugs found.

Great news, this joy rom is fasta and everything but i really dont like its UI so i cant wait to change it with your lewa

[Request] Port of CDMA MIUI JB Rom

As you can see here, there is an nice JB MIUI Rom for CDMA with Buttered Toast Kernel inside!
Is someone able to port this to GSM?
Nearly all little Bugs are fixed, so it sounds good that this can be a nearly bugfree daily driver!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1942898
I will start trying it myself but i have no experience in Rom development or porting! So maybe someone says that its easy for him to do! Or maybe there already is a new port of 2.10.19 that i don´t know yet!
A) its not easy to simply port over a rom
B) miui has already officially started working on a jb build which can be found in the thread in general
C) THIS SHOULD BE IN Q&A
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515m using Tapatalk 2
The official builds are also just ported as far as i know or build by some devs, thats the reason why i ask for that, i don´t know how many work it is to port a rom! But there has been some ports of older version, but they have some bugs which make them hard to use as daily driver!
I know that this maybe should be in Q&A but its an GSM Specific thing, thats why i asked for it here or maybe showed some GSM users how far Dev is in CDMA!
GSM dev is also Far and very very good and i really thank all the devs for thier nice work! without them i would be really unhappy with my phone!

EDIT: There's no point:
1. As already said, official builds are out.
2. MIUI is a pain to port and by the time I get it to boot the official build will already be a daily driver.
I already have a port from Sensation miui JB but it has some bugs, i will try to port this and hope to get it working.

I flashed your ROM and my first impressions are that it's very good. I've noticed a bug though. When you change the workspace to Tablet mode the phone is stuck at the boot animation, and I've had to do a full wipe to boot it up again. Apart from that, everything is good for now, and I'll continue testing it.
EDIT: It's in tablet mode after the wipe. I guess the configuration files are in the system partition..
EDIT2: The same happens when I change to other modes as well.

[Q] Change screen colors on CM 10.2

Hey, first of all thanks alot for all the development and crazy amount of information going on in here
I have searched but unfortunately I couldn't find a solution to my problem so I'm asking here. I recently installed official Cyanogenmod 10.2 stable release on my i9300 international S3 (since CM11 gave me some bugs) and it's pretty great so far, but I've been searching a way to change the color settings of the screen. On CM there are some built in ones but I don't really like those. On the 4.3 Stock Samsung ROM there was "Professional Photo" or something like that that I did like. Does anyone know what I can do? If I understood correctly kernels can do that sort of stuff but I didn't find a kernel to suit my needs.
Thanks in advance

Yes you understood it correctly If your Planning to run a ROM based on CM Screen modes like Dynamic, Professional Photo etc Are available only through custom Kernel.
In Sammy as v all know you can change it under settings but for CM unfortunately you have to stick to Kernel Settings to do that.
Almost All popular Kernels Have that option under Screen>MDNIE mode
All you have to do is select the right kernel
Unfortunatly You asked a Question in this Thread and Also Gave an answer for the same.
Just remeber that for CM ul have to stick to some Externel Kernel as these options wont be available with stock CM 10.2 Kernel as well
Just as a recommendation give GoogyMax , Boeffla, Agni a try as these gave me really good results(Special Thx to Dev's of the same )

I've looked into GoogyMax and Boeffla but as far as I could tell they don't support color changing. If I do install them what can I do to change the colors?
And I have yet to install a kernel, does it come in a zip file that I can install in CWM?

Yes CM is definately Smoother than TouchWIz( Thx to Free RAM ). But Try out the ArchiDroid Stock Sammy ROM. You Might Like it for its smoothness
Rom recommendations are not allowed on xda. You have to try out and search for which rom suits u the best same goes with kernels

[Q] What would you like in a Desire X custom ROM

I have a Desire X and upon looking for a custom rom for it I saw how little there were on XDA I put this down to the fact that the HTC Desire X isnt a very well know device. So i decided to make my own. I have made three ROMs before all for the Nexus 7 2013 edition. All of these have had a lot of success and very good feed back. They were full of tweaks and they all had optimized custom kernels. So I feel that i stand a good ground to make one for the Desire X. I know what I want in the rom but what I want to know is what does the community want in it. This may take some time to get all the information from the community and to actually build the rom so please be patient while i make it. Please leave down below what you guys would like to see in the rom and whether or not you would like a custom kernel built in or as an added extra you could flash after the rom if you wish. Leave below any suggestions you want and any tweaks you may want me to integrate, if there is a certain aspect of a rom you would like me to add again please leave that below. Again thank you and I hope I can make a good rom that you will all like.

First question: You will make a Sense based ROM I presume. Which base do you want to use, Sense 4 or Sense 5? For the requests, I would like to have a good sound mod for sure (I listen to a lot of music).
Adding music tweaks.

Yes I will make a sense based rom I am still trying to decide on which one to use because I have never made a rom for a HTC device, which sense would you recommend. I love music to so I will update the beats audio drivers that are pre installed to some higher quality ones I will also make sure that the music is a bit louder when coming out of the speakers, I will also have a different stock music app with a built in EQ so that you can change the frequency's and make your music louder. I run an EQ on my Desire X now and there is a noticeable difference in quality and volume when the EQ is used so I will tie that in with the rom. Thanks for your feed back I hope can make a rom that will please you and many others. How would you feel about a custom kernel with overclocking and underclocking.

OK I can make it look similar to AOSP obviously I would have to try and find the codes for the build prop from that ROM would you want a custom bootanimation? And what do you mean at 2.20.405 I'm confused.

With 2.20.405 he just means the latest Sense 4 build available, just take a look at the Android Developement section and search for it. You'll find the base made by ckpv5 there.
AOSP or Sense 5
Should I make a AOSP based rom or a Sense 5 based rom. I am going to start making a nightly version of my rom tonight it will be a Sense 5 based rom. There will be a 1.4ghz kernel that you can flash along side the rom in the future I will make the kernel part of the rom so you don't have to flash it separately. I hope to have the rom out by Sunday or early next week but this will be very early nightly so there won't be much on the rom but it will just to see how stable the rom and kernel is. Thanks you everybody for helping me. The rom will be 4.2 which I think is gingerbread. I hope you enjoy the nightly and I hope you will enjoy the rom as I slowly do more and more development on it.

Seriously? 4.2 is JB as well, Gingerbread was 2.3. Also, what base will you do? There is no 4.2 for us yet...

I'm sorry I only run kitkat on my nexus 7 I was unsure on wheather it was jellybean or gingerbread I'm sorry I am sorry for my mistake. I know that my desire X is running ics but I thought some were able to run jellybean. I will use a ics sense 5 base. Well for the nightly I will.

Thank you for expressing interest and thanks for the luck. I would need some alpha and beta testers because my desire X as of this moment isn't rooted and so I can't test the rom my self. When I finish the nightly I will make a post in this thread about it, at this point I would need people to test it. If you find any bugs problems or want to give suggestions please PM me or post your feed back in the thread. Thank you guys for your help and thank you for being interested in my rom. Again thank you willing to test the rom in such early state.

Now you're mixing things again. Just for your record: 2.3 - Gingerbread. 4.0 - ICS. 4.1 - JB. 4.2 - JB. 4.3 - JB again. 4.4 - you know this one. Sense 5 won't run on ICS, only on JB.
Thanks for the help.

See that's what I thought I am runnig 4.1.1 which I know is ics and upon asking around people wanted a sense 5 rom for the desire X but I am running sense 4 my self. I was getting confused my self. Ok what I am going to do is use my own devices stock rom because it is non rooted so what I will do is add superSU as a system app so that all you people who have root(obviously you do to flash a rom) can have superSU ready. Ok thank you for your help you have helped my become in confused and as I have said I have only ever made 4.4.2 roms on pure android so this is my first time working with ics and sense 4. Thanks again for your help.
Ahmm. 4.1 is JB and you are running sense 4 on stock, but there are two 4.1 roms with sense 5. I think you will get this now xd

Maybe a 4.4.2 KitKat ROM for our DX?
Kitkat 4.4.2 ROM for DX
i would like to see a Kitkat 4.4.2 ROM for the DX with Google launcher and Google dialer
Kit Kat ROM
I could try and make a kit kat rom or more to the point i could try and port it across from another device. I also own a HTC one X running 4.4.2 with sense on top obviously and so i could try and port kit kat from that rom to our Desire X. I have never ported a rom before so any help you could give me would be massively helpful. I can try and teach my self and try and learn how to port roms but if you know how to port roms could you please help me. Thank you and sorry the sense 4 rom is running late i haven't been able to work on it due issues at school. I hope to have that out soon i am adding UI tweaks and trying to find a good stable kernel to include in the rom, give me time to to work on this and i will release the rom soon. After i have released my sense 4 rom i will start work on a kit kat port with google launcher and the correct dialer, so yeah port the rom not just make a custom theme. Thanks for all your help i will try and make some good roms for you and have a kit kat port out within the next few weeks and months. Thanks again.
