Then the easy way is impossible for me. Betw thx for the answer.
why don't you develop your own rom there are all the resources out there that you need just make good use of them .... instead of saying press the button instead that way it counts

hey guys. I would want to install Android on a Samsung S5380 Wave Y that runs with Bada in the present if could be possible. It's a smarthphone but i don't really like bada and i would want to install android on it, but i can't really find a tutorial how to do it. Did someone done this task, it is possible? Thank you

No, you can't because it designed to run bada and you need to make android rom yourself for your phone, which is not possible as it requires high technical knowledge like compiling a rom, compiling kernel for your device using source of another device! You should have good knowledge of soldering pins or wires to flash boot loader on main board by opening the phone! The results may not be guaranteed, you might also brick your cellphone.

Yes, it still stands, but i found out that CM10.1 is currently impossible to make, so you can try with MIUI V5.

so how did you make the nexus rom for it?
The issue is that I do not own the phone, but I am looking at porting CM to MTK6589.
MIUI porting is a bit different, it would not involve kernel compiling per se I believe (CM either, but I would like to).
To give it a go, I would need info from here:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro
So your ROM version, partition info etc.
When I manage to port to a device I own, I can give it a go.

It's not really Nexus ROM, it's just stock ROM modified to look like stock Android.
I have Android 4.2.1
I will PM you the partition info.

Wow, it seems that you have alot of money to order it just because you want to develop ROM for that phone.
Good luck man, if you need any help message me

Well, not really, but I like to spend money on those things.
When the ROM works I'll sell it .
Well dump info and the stuff on the CM porting page is still usefull.

i compiled my first recovery based on cm 10.1 for Thl W8.
I have no easy way to push the image to the phone to test.
If it works, I can start to create a recovery for this phone based on sources.
I would need that info I requested.
Are you able to post the build.prop file and the partition dump?
Look at the page with instructions I posted earlier.
Meantime I look for an easy way to flash that recovery, somehow sp flashtool does not read the scatter file created by mtkdroidtools .
cheers
managed to flash it, but it does not work , just a black screen .
Harder than it looks.
Can't promise anything, but I'll post if I get further.
Compiling on an old C2D now, so it takes time .

you are welcome .
I do still need the information I mentioned once I get it working.
Especially the partition info is important.
You may always hit the thanks button when you are happy .
I am currently working on CWM 6 to get working.
I'll post when I have progress (or when I quit ).
You can always give it a go yourself:

So, like I requested before, please :
- post your build.prop file
- post identification stuff of the device, like screen resolution, memory and recovery.fstab (or the recovery image)
- in general take a look at the link I posted before and read it, so you know what info is needed :
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro
The reason I ask is because there are at leat 2 different versions, 1 had 960x480 screen and 1/4gb ram/rom, the other 1280x720 and 2/8.
They obviously at least have different partitions and displays and perhaps even other different hardware.
You can also post a full working ROM on dropbox or something.
thanks
P.S. for the needed tools, see here:

This is a CWM 6.0.3.3 which works on my device.
Use SP Flash Tools 3.13 something to flash.
My scatter file is attached, please compare it with yours.
Needless to say perhaps, but still: this is on your own risk.
You may damage your device if you do not know what you are doing.
Bricking it is not my fault!
So think before you act.
If you try: please give feedback if it works.
If does it is the same device: N9389 5.3", 960x480 (qHD) , 1 gb ram, 4 gb rom.
Device identifier: v89_gq2002s
Baseband v: MOLY.WR8.W1248.MD.WG.MP.V6.P2, 2013/03/26 12:42
cheers!

Hi,
Well I am partly motivated by your offer, but I enjoy Android and Linux hacking.
Let's hope those attempts will lead to something.
How about LewaOS? There are good porting guides for that.
I will try to look for MIUI or CM in the weekend.
Initial CM would miss dual sim support.
Maybe MIUI is easier, because some work has been done.
Well, I'll see.
Don't overestimate the complexity, if you have CM 6 and made it yourself, porting a rom is doable I suppose ?
cheers
Did you guys notice that the LG L7II and the Huawei Y300 has the same specs
Wow, amazing! On my way to try out some huawei roms in hope of getting it to work.
It IS the same chipset afterall...
Nice find. Did you manage to find any ROMs? All I found were 4.1.x ROMs, which basically returns us to square 1...
Awesome, but this is not even nearly any close to development. Put this thread ro general.
Also installing a huawei rom just like this is a nice way to brick your phone...

Che, tried once to port, but instead of working phone, I got a bricked one.
They are pretty different inside, because all the circuitry is different, only the chipset is the same.
sorry

Hah, I tried to flash it but CWM didn't let me. It just throws bunch of text at you and aborts the installation.
Tried to port with the classic port rom base rom method but with no success.

Most Often you can't. There would be issues with drivers and other stuff. Issues might not occur if the both the processors are a lot similar and maybe share same drivers. Since you are trying to change to a different brand this is not the case.
