I don't know, if this is the right category, to post this. If it isn't - I'm sorry for spamming wrong category's.
I found a rom (CM 10.1) universaly made for MT6592 from mtkroms.com. I really want to port this rom for my chinese MT6582M phone. I followed this guide, in order to successfully port from MT6592 to MT6582. Thanks @[email protected] for his awesome guide. The problem is, when I try to flash the rom, it pops up "symlink: some symlinks failed (Status 7)". One time I somehow managed to install the rom, but weren't able to get past boot-animation. Also, I can't take a logcat, while device is booting, because adb isn't detecting my phone on boot. Please write, what files, or the rom itself, I need to upload, for you guys, to try help me.

why you porting cm 10.1 ? (there is no cm 10 for these mtk)
though you can port Cm 12.1 buggless from other Mt6582 device....using ur stock kk rom.....for rom link check on xda and for guide check my mt6592 cm12.1 porting guide
cheers
The problem is, that I don't have KitKat. I have Jelly Bean 4.2.2, and I'm stuck in it, because I have kernel 3.4.5, and no kernel sources for this phone. So no KK for this one.

All known clones has Android JB 4.2.2 too. So, nu luck for this device. . I wanted to get CM 10.1 on it, to get the taste of CM, themes, and many more awesome features of CM.
You will never get a fully working rom. Just the way it is with devices using these sub par chips

Upgrading Ported Custom ROM
Hello everyone here,
By following this thread so far, I've managed to port a custom ROM successfully for my device from existing Base ROM. Kudos to ArjunrambZ for this helpful thread for noobs like me. But both the ROMs are Android 4.1.1 . Now can anyone help me how to upgrade the version(Example: I want to upgrade to Android 4.4.4) of my Ported ROM? I googled a lot but I couldn't find anything useful/understandable for me. Thank you and thanks to KJ for pushing me in the right direction :cyclops:
ROM structure
Nice guide I haven't actually tried this yet but I have a few questions
As far as i knw porting means running a rom on a device for which it was not created
If this is the case why do we copy only specific folders (apps, fonts, media, framework) . from port rom to base rom? So there r still parts of original rom in new ported rom what is work of those parts? And what is work of parts we copied from port rom?
At 1st i thought the remain of base rom which we didn't replace is device specific i.e it contains drivers, etc am i correct?
Plus i have one more query what if i want to port a completely diff version port rom
For example i have a note 2 and i knw there won't be any lollipop release for it
So what if i want to port lollipop to my device since i have base rom as kitkat and port rom as lollipop, is it possible cross version porting?
Thanks

Can i port Omnirom 5.1.1 made for samsung galaxy s to samsung galaxy s duos
I tried your method and there were a few problems.
I took cosmic rom for galaxy s duos as the base rom.
I didnt see any set perm files in this base rom , so i could not copy.
Not many files were there in init.d of Omnirom 5.1.1 which i used as port rom as compared yo what you have shown in ur tutorial.
I still continued and zipped the rom and it was installed but ,NOW ITS STUCK ON BOOT!!!!!!
Its bricked , right ?
Where did i go wrong?
SAMSUNG GALAXY S DUOS AND SAMSUNG GALAXY S SEEM TO BE ALMOST SIMILAR IN SPECS.
So i still beleive i can port it.

AICP ported rom : >> https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B3S-0kdB3QdGaGc1Nlg2Vk1VMVk&usp=sharing
Verified "NOT WORKING"
Though any developer interested the link is provided download the rom modify it and do whatever you want
Well, aicp is based on cm. If u have ported this ROM, then in that case cm12.1 should also run on quattro
Unfortunately, we don't have a stable cm11 build too. So how's that possible?

Well I am a big fan of AICP and thats the only reason to port the rom and about cm11 almost all the stuff is working apart from some unfixed bugs ...... So as it is 4.4.4 kitkat I thought we could move a bit higher and port 5.1.1 lollipop rom . So just because of my curiosity and enthusiasm for AICP I ported it . Though I least expect it to work . And even after this if you are interested you can definitely head over and give it a try . :good:
How is possible bro this is high chip set phone rom??????
Are you sure this will work...!!!
Not working installation aborte error [status 0]
Give try soon as i m running with high speed when unlimited get started i will download

@amin4568 on telegram
Hi guys,
I'm here to ask you a good MT6592(m) porting guide. I just bought my new THL 5000T, a MT6592m Octa-Core with 1GB RAM, 8GB ROM and 5000mAh battery! It's a monster. It has 4.4.2 stock firmware and I saw someone ported MIUI 7 for it, on NeedROM. But I also saw LolliPop and CyanogenMOD ROM ported to MT6592.
I searched over Internet and I discovered that porting MT6592/T ROMS on MT6592m works flawlessly, so MT6592 (1.7Ghz), MT6592T(2.0Ghz) and MT6592m(1.4Ghz) ROMS are interchangeable.
So I started trying to port some ROMs like OctOS, CM12.1 and even KitKat Roms like AICP or CM11. I searched obviously the porting guide. Well....Here's the problem
Over internet there are thousands of guides, all differents each other, and NO ONE WORKING GOOD
I also tried to mix them by copying as many files from stock as possible. No luck. The only ROM that booted to launcher was OctOS but no network, no sim, no 3g, no nothing. I tried to fix them by "Bugs fixing guides" over internet, but they result in bootloop.
I'm here to asking you, my favourite and main Android modding forum, if someone has got the definitive guide for porting MT6592(m) ROMs.
Thanks in advance, and sorry for my english, I'm Italian
No one?
I can not help you about your problems, but I'm interested in, how you were returned to stock rom after installing a custom ROM. I also have problems with the installation and instructions on how to install ROMs on mtk

It's easy to return to stock rom after installing a custom rom.
You just need to flash your stock rom through SP Flash Tool!
Hello guys
I am litle bit confused
I find a AOSP 5.1 rom for Lenovo Tab 2 A8-50LC
My question is: Will it work if i flash it on 50F?
They are same device, same specs, only chipset is different. 50LC is running MT8735 and 50F is running MT8161. Only thing they are not same is that 50F is Wi-Fi only, no sim card.
I saw a thread about porting roms to MTK devices but i am not sure if it works with this chipsets. Should i try to flash that rom or port it by swaping files from stock to aosp rom like in thread? Help is greatfull, thanks :fingers-crossed:
Dont flash with that rom,it will brick your device.
Sent from my Lenovo A7020a48 using Tapatalk
But see this
Will this work? Because it say almost any mediatek device https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701283
EDIT:Guys i did a litle research about this thing and all i see here what is needed is rom porting.
How do i port rom in situation like this? It have almost same specs, only chipset is different.
So any tip or link to thread for rom porting in simmiar situations? Thanks alot!!!
No one?
I flashed this rom and it bricked my device, you are right..
But how do i port a rom on MT8161 from MT8735? Is there any chance? Thanks!
