Jiayu S2 : MT6592 : Customize rom with source ? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi every developers !
Now I have used mediatek phones for some years, I saw some mediatek kernel sources were leaked. I would like to customize a rom from scratch and from a very stock/basic rom.
The GPS gets turned off when I turn off the screen, I need an app to avoid this.
I would like to improve the GPS behavior and make some changesin the theme etc...
Just for learning and trying something new.
I found the MT6592 kitkat Kernel source in XDA but is it enough to make what I want ?
Thank you, I'm going on reading topics.

I need devices to develop for!

Hey guys! After a long time of taking a break from the Android world and focusing more on school I am finally coming back and coming back strong! But before I can start my big plans I need a device or two to develop for. I own a Galaxy Note 3 but I really do not like developing for it since we do not have an Unlocked Bootloader yet.
I am a Samsung Fanboy so I know TouchWiz inside and out! I also have plenty of experience with the stock Android OS. I currently do NOT make source builds but if you have the source code then I will be glad to!
All of my builds will be built on my Dedicated Server and uploaded on a fast 1GBPS port! I will develop for pretty much any device as long as it either has source code or is compatible with the Kitchen.
I can theme, build ROMs, and very little Kernel work. Let me know what devices you want me to dev for and what you would like to see in a ROM. I can start working very soon!
Thanks for your time!

So, I want you to port 4.4 to the ZTE V985
Here is the kernel source https://disk.yandex.ru/public/?hash=BWwRVJxvd/ByYk9Ec3R6qwIuNE8rSJ2sB4LjsUucVi8%3D
Hope you will help me with this device
@Droid Premium what about the Note 10.1 2014, WIFI only model, P600? Don't know if youv'e made any roms for tablets but it would be good to have another rom for it because it's been a bit quiet so far

rk3026 Custom Rom

Hi
Welcome to what im hoping will become a popular project amongst owners of Rockchip devices. Over at rkDroid we are aiming to create the first custom rom for the rk3026.
We really are starting at the bottom with this one as there is so little info available about these devices. The aim will be a 2 stage project :
Stage 1 : Cooked stock rom
Stage 2 : KitKat
We want to get as many people involved as we can. This means addressing ALL levels of skill. This is why there are 2 stages.
Stage 1 :The 'cooked rom' - This will be for beginners to contribute to. It could be themes, app suggestions, tweaks, etc. They all go into a custom rom and no one is better than another. Anyone can get involved, even if they dont have a Rockchip device. Icons, Themes, etc. They ALL count.
Stage 2 :'KitKat' - I have the source for the kernel and Android build for KK on the 3026. This means we can (in theory) build KK for it. Rockchip released a press release a few months ago saying the 3188 & 3026 WILL get KK. So far the 3026 has been lacking in this. rkDroid aims to bridge that gap and get a KK build out there for these devices. Im no pro when it comes to building Android or kernels. Ive done a few but im in no way a 'guru'. Im also not stupid. This stage of the project WILL require people with some knowledge of building Android, etc.
Overall, the aim of rkDroid is to bring Rockchip device users together to share info, solve problems, build roms, etc. Our site aims to be a popular resource for Rockchip tablets (No TV sticks or Mini PCs yet, sorry guys).
We dont only support the rk3026, We also have info/roms/etc for the other Rockchip devices like the rk3066, rk3188, etc. We will be aiming to create roms for these too once we get more support.
The bottom line is that if you own a Rockchip device and want to be involved in creating a custom rom for it then get involved with us. Whatever level you are at you can have an input in this project and we welcome everyone. n00b or bo$$, its all the same to us, There is a place for everyone at rkDroid.
Let us know if your interested in this project and lets see if we can beat Rockchip by getting our own KK build out before them
did this rom can change size storage sytem
in fact on rk3026 MD706B tablet 8GO/1Go
we have
1 Go for system
1Go for internal sotage
and 5.6 for internat SD : nand flash
can we use 1 giga from those 5.6 to add them to internal storage like on samsung 16g tablket hey have 3G for internal storage

I flashed your ROM from rkdroid here with 3.0.36+([email protected]) #69 kernel. Rom is really fast but only problem is that wifi doesn't work. If I try to turn wifi bar on it will automatic slide to off position. It says that "turning wifi on" but nothing happens. I can't flash my stock rom back because my TWRP backup is corrupted (system part is missing).
Can you help me?
Solution: Turns out that that my wifi is actually Atheros AR9271 so all I need to do was flash Oma Cube U25GT2-H JB v1.0 rom with my genuine kernel. Everything is working now!
please help me...... i have supertab r10 rockchib rk3026 i flashed him then it become working whithout screen...... do you have any soluation?????!!!!!!
You should flash original firmware if your tab is bricked. Which firmware did you flash? Seems to be kernel related.. Did you make a backup before it got bricked?
i tried every flash at "wwwrockchipfirmware.com ..... and still the same problem ...... whait screen ore black screen ...... i did not make a backup ...... do you have an original firmware ore any solution for this problem
Hi all anyone can help me please? i have an INTENSO TAB 734 "7" inchs ARM, Processor Cortex-A9 with Rockchip RK 3026 Risolution 1024 x 600 Pixels, RAM type DDR3-SDRAM ,ram memory 1 gb......................

[Q] Top ROMs for Mediatek devices

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,
It's the wrong place for this type of questions, u should post it in the corresponding sub-xda topic instead of.
To answer you without going into too much detail otherwise my few lines will turn into paragraphs with several kilometers long...
In a very simple way and in just a few words: the task can very quickly get complicated even for experienced developers, and i don't say that as kernel developers because i've never ventured into it, but in the meantime it's a custom and kernel ROM developer who told me that it's very complicated to adapt a kernel for a new phone from scratch, and i suppose that the task is even more so when the phone is an MTK because the kernel originally had to be designed for devices equipped with arm or mips processors..

It has been a looong time since I knew about those things but if I remember your base ROM should have that same Android version as your port ROM.
And if you want an advice, please consider building a ROM from source. Troubleshooting is hell with ported ROMs. Building ROM is scary because it has commands that you don't know yet, but it's way more easy than porting. Trust me.
Here is a guide on how to build ROM from source :

@XdaNeko
It's NOT the version of Android what does matter. If that would be the case then an upgrade via OTA never would be possible.
A Stock ROM always at 100% matches phone's hardware ( CPU, GPU, RAM, storage memory, etc.pp ) - it's built by OEM's / Carrier's R&D department, the guys who know best of.
Whereas a Custom ROM necessarily does NOT because it gets built by 3rd-party companies/programmers associations - who think they can do it better, but don't always have the specific Android device at hand.
