[Q] HELP Porting KitKat ROMs? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been trying to port the latest PA build for my Galaxy Note GT-N7000. I looked up the guides on xda forums, but I keep getting stuck at boot.
I tried porting using the PA 4.0-ALPHA and Omni-4.4.2-NIGHTLIES as base, but no results...
Can anybody help me with this??

BTW, maybe I should clarify...I want to port from zip, not source(as I don't really know how to work with source and don't have the time to learn right now... )

No one? Guess I should install ubuntu already...

New SGS2

Hi guys,
I'm new in the Samsung scene, I've Always used HTC phones before. My question is not how to flash (i'll first search for it myself), but if anyone could recommend me a rom with the look and feel of the SGS3 software.
I've searched but couldn't find anything i think works 99%.
thx

Try Resurrection remix 2.6.1. Based on ICS and stable as a rock. I'm pretty new myself and been using it for a while.Easy to install and no issues whatsoever. :good:
First of all, are you sure you have an i9100 and not an i9100G, a skyrocket (AT&T or Rogers), a Galaxy S2 LTE HD, etc?
If you do have an i9100, this is the forum for you. If not, try and find your right forum...
I'd look in the SGS2 android dev forums and not the Original Android Dev forums. Alot of cooks have ROMs with SGS3-like themes... And there's possibly a touchwiz5 mod in the themes section. I know the ripple lockscreen was ported too...
To be honest, alot of ROMs exist but it's a question of taste... I know Resurrection remix is a popular one. Alot of people switched to Cyanogenmod when ICS hit though, as ICS wasn't up to par for Samsung's implementation...
Your best bet is to flash a custom kernel with CWM recovery in Odin (Alot of guides to do this) like CF-Root and then grab ROMs and flash them through CWM. If you want a kernel that's able to dual boot, you can use DreamKernel, Siyah, etc. That way you can get one ROM going and test a second ROM as a secondary. Dual booting can be achieved because we have a 500MB partition on our phones that isn't used for anything... Fun, is it not?
And The other rom is pfittech ics rom and is also stable and he is working on stable jb rom as among other devs

wow guys really thanks!!! I'm really happy to get so much information! I can do everything myself now thank you a lot :')
I think i'll wait untill a port of the new JB update for the S3 gets ported
I've always used Slim ICS, very light weight and customizable.

Agreed i'm a big resurrection remix fan, the dev updates his rom uber frequently, more than most others. Respect!!

I'd go with rootbox. Just because the dev updates more frequently does not mean it's a better rom. The ones who don't update frequently just mean they don't have bugs to fix...

New Rom builder - how to include Trinity Kernel when compiling

Hey guys. I've started compiling AOKP roms for Toroplus and Maguro recently and I'd like to start including Trinity Kernel in my Rom.
I know it can be flashed after the rom but I'd like to have it come installed with it.
I've searched but cant find anything to help.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Anyone have some insight on this?

[Q] Thinking About Rom Development..

I don't know if i've posted this in the right section, but at times on and off i've thought about doing rom development. When I had a Nexus S 4G I made the attempt of being the first to compile ICS from source for that phone. This phone needs roms, I also can't afford to switch phones. I don't know alot about development, but where could I start so I can begin to learn how to build roms? How difficult would it be to get a rom compiled for this phone that'll boot, being that it has a locked bootloader? If someone can help me so I can at least try to do some type of development for this device. I have to flash some type of custom rom on this phone, lol.
imo the best is a port of cyanogenmod with sources of phones similar to optimus l9 and for sure versions like 4.1 ++
this version of android excisting in optimus l9 ics is working fine. it would be nice porting of newer versions.
Finally someone...first.

Glad and happy to see someone (first one) a developer is willing to work on Source Codes. May be for you only I did collected all the resources.
Source Codes here,
Unrooted Stock Roms here,
Flashing and Rooting here and
Rooted CWM Backups here.
See already collected so much of information so some developer will start working. Did this because the LG links were rapidly dying and still are.
I am not developer, but I will be happy to become a tester for you and would like to try to help you in any way you may want. Happy Developing, BIG THANKS and Best of luck.
I'll start after I get a new ethernet cable for my computer, Ubuntu doesn't work well with my wifi usb adapter. Works fine in Windows and was working ok in Linux Mint, abeit kinda slow. I may have to ask someone for help or for guidance, but i'll try to do something. Better than complaining about no roms but not doing anything to help bring one. I don't know how difficult it would be but I was thinking about building JB from source for this phone?

cm for trend plus (GT-S7580

Someone please make CyanogenMod for Samsung Galaxy Trend Plus GT-S7580. I and other guys who owns that device would be very happy about it. If someone does that post the recovery install package here and post it to cyanogen mod so they add it to the easy installer. I want CWM recovery for my device too but its not so important.

Hi! I could get an CWM recovery with this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2621087
thanks for the cwm
gonna try that i think it works but the cmod is the most important to me
cwm works fine
i tried the cwm and works fine but if the cyanogen mod is for my device post a link so i can get it
All should post here to add support for trend plus http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49806727 . Goodluck
Too much pages getting it for this device will take very long time

The only way you will have an cm, I tried diffrent version and no one worked. Do u have an big sdcard? If so, go to the cwm and backup your rom. put it on a zip and send to the cyanogen mod crew, so they can port it.
My sd card is very small but i know someone knows how to make and mod roms because i know a little bit how it works but not much

I can port cm if someone can make the kernel compatible with cm we will have a custom ROM. It's easier to do then most of u think.
UPDATE: I will do needed edits in our stock kernel to get it to boot into cm10.2. However we will still need a proper kernel compiled to have it fully working. Doing it this way will break some functions but I will do my very best to fix bugs. I will get it to the stage of making calls SMS and data working then I will pass the ROM on to other developers to take over. That's best I can offer. Thanks
If you know any kernel developers please get them to PM me thanks

Hey mate, I've just got a Galaxy Trend Plus (GT-S7580) and I started to look for some custom ROMs, but I can't find much about it, do you know something about any development progress with custom ROMs for this device?
Thanks in advance!

I'm also interested in some CM ROM for this phone. Unfortunately it looks like no custom ROM is available yet. I'm afraid I have to learn how to create one
+1
Is there anybody who can port CM for this phone? I would very appreciate it. I own this phone so if there is someone willing to do this I am ready to help him if he will need something from the phone - files, etc. ( I do not actually know what is needed for porting the ROM.)
WE WANT CyanogenMod FOR Galaxy Trend Plus GT-S7580L
Yes me too
I have a samsung galaxy trend plus and i want a CM for it :angel:
I have the knowlegde of porting roms but it really won't be easy..
I can start porting it after 2weeks (im at vacation now) and trust me guys i really going to start with it will also take alot of time because its very hard and im also busy with projects for the Trend and Galaxy fame

Unfortionally its not so easy

I have some friends ( @SeannyM @wulsic) who also ported cm to their device without any sources so i can ask their help when i start with it.
