Folks I am going to try N push as many roms out for this device as I can, only because we didn't have a lot of optional roms with kk, but now that I have learned more I will do the best I can. If anyone here wishes to take over one or some of my threads and maintain the device just let me know Please? I'm in NO way trying to push anyone out, I just want there to be options for you! My Candy5 rom is mine tho, SlimLP as well, I'm not willing to let them go just yet. Also as soon as PacRom has released their nightlies I will release my Pac build for this device! Again, if you wish to build, I will turn my thread over to you because I can't maintain every thread/rom as often as I'd like. This is just a heads up so everyone knows what to look forward to.

Know how you feel man. I need 64 bit computing to build and only one of my dinosaurs runs 64 bit but its sadly lacking in the memory to complete the builds. I came thiiiiiiis close to my test build completing. So I just flash other people's efforts.

Well if ever either of you, or both, become ready to compile I'd be happy to help you get started. I'll also give away some of my threads. When that time comes just hit me up with a message here or on Hangouts.
My builds are going to be less supported as I do not have the time to maintain so many roms for one device. I'll really help someone get started if they wish but please don't expect updates from all of the roms I have here. You can do this!

I'd like to help with this but as my PC is slightly antiquated my last attempt at a build failed. I may try a dual boot with ubunu or bbqlinux so I can max out my limited resources for one more try. Can't say when yet...life keeps getting in the way.

I definitely understand about life getting in the way. I have a house full of kids and my android addiction gets in the way at times. Let me know when/if you try to build again and I'll for sure give a hand working out errors and whatnot.
Step one completed. Now have the old Vista dual booting with BBQ Linux. Removed virtualbox client packages as it is installed properly and set it up with a beautiful grub splash. Even defaults to windoz for my wife.

Step two done. Built cm10.1 as a test and it is flashed on my phone and working.
BBQLinux apparently works out of box as was said on their thread. First attempt at build stalled out after about 10 minutes complaining of a missing shared object library. Version in folder was one off from the one being asked for. Renamed a symlink to match version number and build completed in about 2 or 3 hours. (64 bit Vista/BBQLinux dual boot with 4GB actual ram and a 12GB swap file)

We are starting a new thread as we enter a new phase of development.
We are beyond confident @ this point that we are where we need to be. We are now working on new init.rc and init.mapphone_cdma.rc that will be able to boot a cm7 atrix nightly.
As of now we only have aceoyame working on these and wish to solicit ideas from those who may be more experienced or who have a keen eye for the obvious.
We will be test flashing this first run shortly. Lets keep this thread clean. We are expecting only comments relating to the new .rc's or pointing out obvious shortcomings of our method.
Expect a test flash to be posted here shortly so others can try along.
So without further ado... here are the initial versions of the inits as modified by aceoyame..
init.mapphone_cdma.rc http://pastebin.com/N3CFNrBX
init.rc http://pastebin.com/KdpL6eKC
Help and comments are welcome...
If you apprecieate our work please hit THANKS on the appropriate post to let us know you guys care and to keep the thread un-cluttered. So far with the other threads it seems we only have about 20 or so users who are looking forward to this.
There is an excellent thread here.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1372293 started by ashclepdia that can be used for speculation, thanks, etc...
Thanks again to the many users here for helping during the sbf flashing phase.. we may need your help again soon.
And last but not least thanks again to dragonzkiller for taking the time from his busy schedule to get us past the last hurtle.
So fu$king excited! Thanks guys!

While reading init.mapphone_cdma.rc i noticed like 3 mount points referencing yaffs2. From what I understood, yaffs2 isn't supported by the X2. That was the only glaring thing I saw so far.
Keep up the great work
Edit: Everyone, Please lets keep on topic. If you have any questions or you want to say thanks please use this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1372293
We need to keep this topic clean for the sake of development.

This is me asking for all of the x2 devs to pitch in and help with CM now that we have 2nd init going. The thing holding us back atm is our init scripts, the one were using bombs out shortly before boot animation (before adb runs) any help would be awesome!
Do you have link to CM7 including 2nd init you are testing with?
I want to push it into my phone when I get a chance this weekend and see whether I can help.
Thanks.
Well its a new day.. and i begin my holliday break.. Gonna spend a good bit of it working on this. I have some new approaches I am going to try today. Hopfully we can get some good information from the upcoming tests.

We intend to release a testing package shortly, once it is logging some sort of usefull data for us. In its current conditions it is not very informative. Rather then spending time getting people up to speed on it.. i am gonna try to get it to a point that it is more useful and self explanatory.
Ideally someone with more experience booting on second init devices will come along and give us a nudge to speed things up
In the meantime i have re-written our hijack to work along side our current X2 bootstap so that will save us some sbf time.
Hang in there.. We are getting close. Thanks for everyones support.
Probably should've posted this earlier, but I have a fairly powerful system. I could compile for you guys.
(I'd need to know what to install, since I haven't compiled a ROM before)

So I take it the script I sent you over helped a lot? It's good to see that! If you're guys' init script works I can patch them into an actual CM7 build for the X2 (So that we can have a device config, and eventually nightlies for it).

Don't worry about trying to compile anything yet. For a few reasons:
They're only patching an ATRIX build, not compiling yet
We don't have a full device setup for the X2 (i'm working on that now)
My computer is more than powerful enough to start releasing office DX2-Dev-Team betas from the repo, so don't worry about compiling yet
I will be on irc @ #X2-AOSP all night for the specific discussion of this thread.
So after a late night in IRC we managed to past 1 of the 2 hurdles we were trying to solve. Thanks to all that helped.
We were able to get some logcat action going!!
One more hurdle to pass and we are going to be VERY CLOSE.

Has anyone tried porting the stock, rooted, or otherwise Rom from the Nexus 4?
If no one has I will give it a shot. The two phones aren't all that different ours has the LTE on the chip set activated but I believe they have basically the same Qualcomm chip set.
Also if anyone knows more about it than I do feel free to inform me. I'm always up for a hacking adventure but I don't want to start something I'll never be able to finish.

I believe I've found a sort of attempt at what I'm looking to do.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2099784
This essentially turns the phone into a Nexus 4 so that essentially the firmware is tricked into thinking that our phone is the Nexus 4. It appears as if in order to put vanilla android on here I'll need to take pieces of this hack, and sort of finish it. Like getting the Capacitive buttons working, which will require a bit of kernel hacking. It appears as if reflashing the modem, which I think after I take apart the original firmware I can sort of shove in there, will fix the LTE, so says the post, and the issue of the SD card. This method may be more intensive than is necessary. However it's looking like this is all I've got to work with as of right now.
I'm going to try and make a Rom that's still ICS and as close to Vanilla as is possible, then I'll give moving it up to Jelly Bean a shot. Also this may take a while as I am in college, and I've only got a small amount of experience so this will sort of be a learning experience for me.
Also I'm not too familiar with using IRC. I'm used to doing stuff on my own. For my original Android phone, the HTC Inspire. The dev community over there was awesome, they're probably still going, but I'm more used to taking a base like CM 9 or CM 10 nightlies and making them my own for my phone. So this will be a hacking adventure. A hackventure if you will.

Is there anybody working on this or does it have to be a Dual-Core device?
I know of OS'es that require a Dual-Core device but runs on a Single Core...
I know this one is meant for ARM devices

but this page might be of service as well...

I think it would give users a new toy to play with even if it doesn't do anything but just boot.
No point since Ubuntu touch needs cm10.1 as a base. Plus it is pretty much a useless os since it isn't made as a daily driver yet.

I think it's safe to say, any of us working on getting Jelly Bean functional right now:
Are doing so on a rom base that might actually work for us after all our efforts.
Maybe once that's to a more complete stage, (released), then maybe efforts can be made on side projects from it.
Just my 2 cents...
As Disconnecktie said, it uses CM10 as base.
No point in putting the cart before the horse.
CM10 should be completed first.

Just an update guys! My i777's charger port F***ed up. I'm awaiting another, I'm going to replace it when it gets here(This Friday or next Monday hopefully.) I've set up my build environment, but as you no some crucial files needed to build UBUNTU TOUCH can only come from my phone Via adb! I know there's other ways of retrieving these files, I'm just to lazy! Anyways all I need it my phone back to life!!!!! Then I will begin building and porting UT to our i777. If I can't find a fix for what I'm taking as a BIG SCREW UP ON CANONICALS PART(Love ya Canonical!) regarding some Bugs or something not reading a locked SIM I guess. Ill go ahead and begin instead building and porting Firefox OS.

What we miss is a truly unique rom.

Yes most of those ROM ports run off cm cause of its compatibility with so many devices, that doesn't make it a step in the wrong direction though as it's a completely different OS with repos required from cm that can probably be replaced with their updated lineage fork. Even if not I guarantee people would still use it if it was 7.0 as it's totally new os for people to play with

CM12 is latest "stable", some folks seem to be kinda working on CM13, but it's still using a lot of CM12 stuff (looking at Github, anyway). Again, this is just for porting to "New" devices. It's been a few months since any repos were updated...
From what I gathered on the KDE site, you need to run MutliROM and get Ubuntu Touch working. Then you can try to port Plasma Mobile, kinda like using the KDE Desktop on your Ubuntu install with a PC. I haven't even looked at Ubuntu Touch yet, lol.
I'll keep doing research, anyone that wants to chip in, feel free :good:
Well I was working on a project long time ago, was not for this device, it was a port for the "Download Booster", when it was cool, and then I failed to do so.
If you can port it to a rom that would be great IMO

As stated, I'll keep researching, right now, I'm really enjoying ScrewdAOSP ROM on my 6P
Must be faster.
The "quick send to" feature doesn't work well. I would like to quit Twitter from there and telegram etc don't show the chats towards you send more files, just the last ones that received messages.
Configuration tool of RR is a must have. No ROM acceptable without that.

You don't really need to port Ubuntu Touch per se to get a Plasma Mobile port working. Just getting an Ubuntu 16.04 rootfs working should suffice for a base to build on. Additionally, porting Halium components should be enough to get the ball rolling.
I was working on a port of PM with someone else a couple of months ago until Halium started and more stuff started piling up for me. If you want to have some of the files we worked on, PM me.
EDIT: I have a thread about porting non-Android OSes to the Nexus 6P if it piques your interest.
