Hi every body. I wonder why there is no custom rom for Nokia X2 although there are dozens of custom roms for Motorola Moto E. I had a comparison on GSM arena, and I found that they are almost the same cpu , ram , camera , screen size : http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3...&idPhone2=6383
. I like Nokia , but I'm starting to get frustrated because of this very weak and simple android introuduced in the Nokia x platform. I have been using android for over 4 years now. Nokia , in my opinion is a great phone manufacturer , but in terms of android, they are Newbies.
So, this is a request only addressed for Real Devs.. Is it possible to port a custom moto E rom to Nokia X2 ??
If Not , would it possible to replace the drivers in the Moto E custom rom with those of Nokia x2 to make it a working rom. I used to have a Huawei smartphone with lots of custom roms, and i managed to cook a miui rom from CM7. I'm not a dev, but I don't think it will be that difficult to do if some dev just guides me on how to do it.
For the devs interested in that, Here's a link on Moto E 4.4.4 Rom

and you can find more on:

Who would earn the title of the first X2 Android Custom Dev in the history of Nokia ??!!
Waiting for your reply ,devs every where !!

Dear Gods and Mortals,
I've just joined XDA a few minutes ago, and am about to post for the very first time.. Please be gentle to a certified n00b..:angel:
Anyway, I've learned a lot reading articles here in XDA, and I think it's time I give back, and hope my 3 cents worth would be of any help..
I'm using an Atrix MB861, and just like you guys, am frustrated with Motorola for not sharing ice cream with us..
I have also read that the ICS ROMs of Samsung Galaxy R i9103 and LG Optimus 2x are not useful in the effort of improving ICS and JB efforts for the Atrix.
After sifting through some Chinese websites, I've come across ZTE U970 (Mimosa, Grand), which may have similar specs with the Atrix. Maybe some dev can try disassembling it for some usable kernels or whatchoo-choos.
They have posted on their website a JB/ICS ROM update. (Sorry, as a n00b cannot post links)
So, is it of any use? I really someone checks it out whether it's legit.
Thank you for your time and for bearing with a n00b post.:silly:

PS: presently using epinter's (THANK YOU:good CM10.1.. fast, stable, very usable.. just no mic and poor cam.
PS2: Also, can anyone tell me how to click the so-called "ThankYou" button? I use IE10 and FF Beta, but I see no "Thank You button"..
This has already been discussed, the only kernel that passed the tests to run on the Atrix was the kernel of the Galaxy R that is currently being ported by our devs.
Hi,
I have localy almost all tegra2 devices kernels. Also ZTE Grand's one. I'm using them as reference. ZTE uses same method of lcd panel init, LG has similar method of tegrapart use (mmc partition offset), Xooms has similar (older) PMU. Each one is helpful, yet none is compatible enough to be used on it's own. Since getting JTAG uart we can work on any kernel, so galaxy/xoom only kernel is no longer valid (just for clarification).
If you check the website download, they have the NEW TEST ROM 4.1 JB version. As I reviewed the old XDA posts, it only points to the old 4.0 stock ROM with 2.6 kernel, NOT the new Test ROM.
Maybe we can download the NEW 4.1 ROM and see if we can analyze it for stuff we can use or modify, as Atrix and U970 comes from the same AP20/AP25 Tegra2 Family. Who knows, they might have a working 3.x kernel on their NEW test ROM..
Still hoping ang believing...
Reading the much older posts (Aug 2012), many (readers, not the Devs) seem to shoot down the idea of using the built-in drivers in these ROMS without actually trying to crack or use it first.. Better try NOW, as Moto ICS upgrade is a dream. Now, because it's a matter of principle. Now, because the longer the time, the more new powerful cheaper phones arrive to distract us away from our principles..:crying:
Anyway, enough of the yada-yada. If anyone is interested in the latest Jelly Bean ROM of U970 (Nov 29 2012), and the latest updated ICS ROM of Hisense T96 (Sept 2012), here they are:

Hi everyone,
Hope all of you are doing great. I'm just a noob and am having a heard time to find a good informative source for customs ROMs made for Mediatek devices. I understand that people are still trying to make CM mod for Mediatek devices but I use a MT6592 device and have not found a good custom ROM for it. Can you guys suggest which ones are good for it and where can I find them?
Hello , i have 1 question can it be work if i port a Sense rom to my honor 8 ?
beacouse i love the Sense ui and the look i will be great if i see a sene rom for my phone
When you know the HTC HD2 and they have done to make a windows phone to an android phone with a lot of roms like Sense,Miui,AOKP, or PAC man rom then
at can be done with another one
The problem is, that it is really hard to build ROMs for devices with Kirin Chipset, because Huawei won't release any helpful source code. We can be lucky that they released some Kernel sources for several devices. Some honor and Huawei devices are nearly the same and ROMs that are build for one device, work on others with the same Chipset as well, so go and look if you find any, I think the OpenKirin released something for the honor 8/ the Huawei version. Just search your Chipset here on xda, you should find something. But there won't be a Sense ROM, I'm pretty sure.
EDIT: There is RROS available for your device!
You have to follow every single instruction, or some features won't work. That's probably everything you will get for that device.

Simple answer is no. Sense like TouchWiz and all other oem distros rely on their own frameworks files that are closed Sourced and only compatible with their devices.
As for the HD 2. That was the last great device of its kind with a really open bootloader.
Hi, I'm in need of some advice about Android development/device to purchase,
Since the devs here are far more experienced than me I would ask some advice,
I started recently 'making' my own AOSP but I needed slow down after discovering I need to have the binaries(kind of: the drivers of the hardware?). So I spent my last 2 days searching about it and devices I could use
I came to the following understanding, I need the AOSP + kernel(as long as I have the kernel I don't need worry about the binaries from the vendor ? since the kernel takes care of it)
I'm thinking between a Moto C Plus or Xiaomi Redmi 6A, since I discovered there are currently ROM's and both have their TWRP. On the case of Xiaomi even the kernel is available. I also noticed the Xperia are good for development, but my problem is the budget I have available
Any piece of advice is welcome, thanks :good:

Hi there,
The best phone that I recommend is the Moto phones as they are easier to port custom versions of android. However, since the Moto C Plus has a MediaTek Processor, I suggest you look for other versions of the Moto Series phones that has a Snapdragon Processors. For example like the Moto E 2nd Gen LTE version, though it has a 1gb ram, I've seen many developers developing their own custom ROM.
I played around with MediaTek Processors the one thing I really don't love about them is that they are not robust like other processors. I had a Lenovo S820 with a MediaTek processor, the one thing I find annoying is that the MediaTek Processors use SPFLASH Tool.
But hey it's your choice like, just make sure the phone that you choose is able to port your custom ROM easily and won't brick the device.
Thank You
