Hello, I'm new in this forum
I have got a totally unknown China phone (Growing LION GMQ5712) with the CPU chip MTK6589.
There aren't any custom ROM's for it, just beacuse it's so unknown, so I have decided to make it myself.
I have contacted the help center and they can send me the stock ROM...
Is there any way to take my stock ROM, a "base" version of AOKP, CM, (or whatever) and mix them to make a ROM that works fine in my device?
Maybe taking the kernel from the stock to the custom? (I don't have much knoledge in Android :laugh:... )
Regards, viper

Pardon for the foolish question
So many ROM dedicated for Optimus One, stock, custom, or AOSP, even Custom from AOSP....I can't remember them all.
I presume there must be some connection between them, like ROM A1 is a custom rom from ROM A. ROM B2 is combine from ROM A1 and ROM B....and so on.
Perhaps someone can explain this ROM universe better, by drawing a family tree or something like that, so we can see how those ROMs have resemblance and inheritance with each other.
Just a thought...
The AOSP ROMs are the original ROMs, they are released by google, and our devs make it work for our device... we can't have the perfectly original on our device, they are made for the Google Nexus S, it is the only device that can run AOSP... it is made for it...
Stock ROM is the ROM made by our device's manufacturer to work perfectly on our phone(AOSP only work bug-free without any modification on google devices, nexus one, s and galaxy nexus)
Custom ROMs are the one's modified, UI, apps, etc... eg CyanogenMod, MIUI, Oxygen etc...

Friends got this phone and hes tired of waiting for ICS. I told him id put a custom rom on there, but i want to make sure its stable because i dont want him to have many bugs.
Which ROM should i go with? Im guessing he would probably prefer a samsung based rom over a AOSP rom.
Your title of the thread and your question posted do not match. If you want the most stock and stable ROM then here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1731382
If you want something else then 10 users will give you 10 different recomendations. Then they will say its great and pefect but blahblah don't work and the ROM will only FC a few times daily.
Link to the stock ROM above should be the way to go unless you and your friend want to sit down and do some reading on your own.
Hi guys, I'm new in this forum.
I would ask some question... I have buy a few days ago a clone of SGS3, maybe the better clone ever made. Equal cover(i use an original cover on the clone), equal battery, microsim, brand (front, back, battery, battery compartment, start and off), equal theme etc... Have a good hardware, I play on this phone with many game like subway surfer or gta vice city without problem... Now I would make a custom rom for this device, for me is a good phone and deserves a good custom rom to fix small problem and improve the performance (on the antutu 2.9 the score are about 11 thousad, antutu 3, about 5 thousand). For start, which are the things to make/modify a rom? Is possible to backup the original rom to modify that without problem? Now I don't remember other question XD
Thank you all and thank you for the answers...
yes, you need the phone rooted
Yes, you need the phone rooted, have a copy of your rom via CWM recovery and check if your device is AOSP based (no idea what that means) there are many threads about how to port your rom into a custom rom (CNM9 and Paranoid Android)

Hi friend, thank you for your answer and sorry for the delay... Is dangerous install the CWM? Is possible brik the phone? However, you can send me the link of the threads about the port of a stock rom in a custom rom?
thank you
Hey, i've flashed cwm on my tablet recently but i dont know what to do now. I have the android 2.3 installed and i want to install ICS, my device is not/was not supported by the recovery, can i install any ICS on the forum? Do i need a specific one? Should i make my own port?
Also, i was able to root the device (the gingerbreak reboot) and i have access to / and was able to install CWM but most apps say i dont have root, is there anything i can do?
First rule is u never ever, ever install anything not for your device. Doing so, probably a hardbrick is waiting along the corner.
So, even if i install CWM i wont be able to install any ROM? Cant i just pick a ROM for other device and port it?
yes u can port a rom from another device if the the original device got almost identical hardware to yours. but that is not an easy job.
or u could build rom from source if u capable of, more chance of fixing bugs than ported rom. cm source is freely available on github, cm9 to be precise if you're looking into getting ics rom. cm7 (gb) would be easier because u already got stock gingerbread rom.

How to make YP-G70 custom rom?
Please help me!
making a rom is not that simple. you need experience with linux (an OS) android building and time (lots and lots of it). also it is a matter of building a rom or porting it.
FYI there is development for you device. so no need for building a rom unless you really want to.
