Okay, Hello to all!
Here's my story:
i have a ZTE Blade III Pro and there isn't kernel source for that phone or roms, only "make up" roms .
But there is CM10.1 for Blade G who has almost the same specs as Blade III Pro, so i ask developer to port for Blade III Pro and he told me that the only way for me is to rewrite his device tree on blade g for my blade III pro, so my questions is how do i start? from where i dont have any skills programing or something else, and i really wanna start doing this

But I think without kernel source, this could be a risky venture. Definitely make sure there is a good tool to return your phone to stock before you get started.
You might find some more general info here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1598713
I am not a developer, so can't offer any direct help. Good luck.
Thank You!

Hello Everyone.
I have had the Samsung Galaxy Pro running rooted gingerbread for some time now and have waited for some development but it seems there is not much interest in this device. I want to try and give it a go myself. What i need is some help in creating or porting a custom recovery first. Any help is appreciated. I need someone to point me in the right direction.
Info about the device:

I am also interested in this, if any developer can port it would be highly appreciated.
Until then I have this one useful link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1561133

Hi,
Before I say anything, let me tell you (and the mod) that I know there are several posts on the same topic (and an excellent one on Unite 2) already but I am so new to this that I can't understand anything in any of those posts. So, dear mod, please do not delete my thread.
Now, I just want one thing and I would be very, very much grateful if I got a brief and exact answer.
1. Which are the best custom ROMs for Micromax Unite 2 and Samsung Star Pro?
- I know people have several favourites. I'd still like to research before trying them. Google gives me too much info.
2. How to root and install ROM on both the devices. (detailed guides) Please provide links if you can.
3. I personally love Cyanogenmod but last I checked their website, they had nothing for the phones I'm looking to root. Please help!
One stupid question: Is it in any way possible to install ROM without rooting? I'm desperate because
a. Samsung Star Pro is slower than a lame tortoise.
b. Micromax Unite 2 has a shorter memory than a goldfish.
Help PLEASE!!!
No one has anything to say? No help?

Well had you followed the rules you would know there is no best rom.
There is no such thing as too much info. What you are doing could very easily leave you bricked with no warranty so it's best to understand what your doing first. Even if it takes days or sometimes weeks of reading before hand.
First things you need to know is if your bootloader is unlocked. If it is not then you won't be able to flash anything.
Also you need to know if kernel source is available for your device. For the micromax most likely not as it is just a rebranded China device and they seldom if ever release Kernel source for their device.
That will get you started. Now take a few days and do some research.

Thanks for telling me this! I really don't know anything. I'll read up on all that you said. Once I get everything, I'll repost here. Thanks again! :good::good:
My roommate is going to begin working on getting this device rooted. He told me to do that he needs the uncompiled kernel and source code (I believe, if that doesn't make sense please correct me). I have rooted my phone before by myself so I have a little experience, and can get temp root so far on the phone. Would anyone know how to acquire what he needs? I have the device in question and I'm not afraid to risk breaking it to get this done.
Also if anyone has any general advice I can pass along to him please let me know. Thank you!
TL;DR
Friend needs source code for Samsung Galaxy J3 to work on custom rom/kernel. Where/how to acquire this?
Here are the source manifests for msm platform. Choose msm8916_64
https://codeaurora.org/xwiki/bin/QAEP/release
Here is the repo instructions.
https://codeaurora.org/xwiki/bin/QAEP/WebHome
Here is the closest kernel sources I could find.
http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=j3
Good luck.
I think this is what we need, I forwarded him those links and will find out probably tomorrow if they are what he was looking for (but from the sound of things it should be). I can't say thank you enough! I had -no- idea where to even start looking!
any news?

Late reply, but yea, there's a A4, an A40 and an A42 forum. Not sure why there's no A41 forum.
and is there any Custom ROM for this model or is it better to forget it?
I was using different search engines and tried to look on 4pda russian site and some german site with no luck
i also have this model and want to root it. i've found a few sites that have a how-to but i do not trust them.
Seems like A41 and A51 are taking off here, I know at least 5 people with them, they got them last year, but yeah, not much on the techy web about it.

Are you rooted now?
It is pretty easy with Magisk.
Base thing is to have original software, that you can download from https://www.sammobile.com.
BTW:
Some folk, me included, requested to add this device to inventory but so far not much success.

In the end I did not do this. I've gotten a new phone, sorry.
F
I drive my rooted A41 since months.
If something is not broken - don't repair it - this is my rule and I don't have time to follow all new trends.
Besides - I have other, backup Galaxy, M12, which was rooted with help of this forum, too.
How to root A41?
Reading this forum to learn.
Everything I did was taken from here and while I don't have it till hands as rooting happened months ago surely all this is here, newer software & ROM hints including.
I have built a kernel if anyone wants it @F308
Also TWRP has been developed on Telegram and waiting for testing
