Req. Unified Teclast/Mtk(Mediatek) chipset support? TWRP/CWM? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello All
Just asking around, wondering if there is a unified thread or devs working with MTK socs, or Teclast based devices. I am aware of Riley Rom, and that a lot of the dev may be Asian or Chinese based from the Baidu released with Teclast based firmware/ROM.
I have a Teclast P98 4g (A8H6), I've been able to root, but trying to install a custom based ROM or CM or AOSP rom..... first I would need to get a functioning TWRP/CM recovery to work on this device.... let alone drivers for adb....which I am able to get the tablet into adb. It's just been a headache reading through all these different sites and forums for other devices, trying to find a way and tools to get it to work for my device.
I see some support for Cube T7 and T9, and Teclast T98 4g (which is almost the same exact device, different camera and clock speed) and some other similar devices with a similar SoC/chipset as this one. Just wondering if there are eyes or ears anywhere that may have more information or a dedicated thread. I've come across some German Dev sites, for Cube T9, but wondering if any know Devs here in XDA or other links with similar work that we may be able to reference.
I've also commented on this one link for the Review of my device but seems there isnt much feedback there.... not a dev thread.
link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/teclast-p98-4g-updated-mtk8752-octa-t3065247
Req. Dedicated Mtk/Teclast Threads/Subforum ..... maybe possible to centralize all the info based on these Tablets , phones and chipsets and have a unified dev or tool set....
Updated thread for SP Flashtool or other similar tools for flashing/root....
to Admin and Dev..... not trying to spam or request anything otherworldly. Just asking the forum for tips, pointers.... maybe someone has answers or solutions I am looking for.... please move to where appropriate.

[Q] how can I help with this project?

*edit* sorry, didn't notice general warning, please move to Q&A
I migrated from SGS i9000 to a huawei G700 phone featuring a mtk6589 chipset.
Sadly, the android version limits the possibilities of the phone really hard: it's oriented towards users who play nicely with their phone, not towards me!
so, to keep a long story short, I'd like CM to be ported to this device. this is not a top-of-the-line product, so I'll certainly have to do it myself.
I already got the complete OS image, kernel properties, installed applications, and so on (boot.img, uboot.img, ...), locally installed here.
the question is: where to go from here? In your guides, I can follow what the developers explain to do and why they are doing it, but I got no idea how to convert this OS image into a CM image ...
Also, as there are apparently developers waiting for mtk6859 roms, should I send them a message asking for their help? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2375957
the only issue here is that I can't contact them yet because of the noob limit.

KitKat on custom device

Hello,
I am pretty sure this is a fairly common question and everyone would like to have kk on his device. I can use google to find out most of the tasks i am about to do, but i have to ask first.
I have a pretty anonymous device, a Chinese phone, rebranded in Europe. It features a hardware similar to this: mediatek MT6577
However the manufacturers only released a 4.0.4 ICS Android for it, and the comunity managed to develop a 4.2.2 JB. It is important to know that other manufacturers have rebranded this phone as well.
It is known as Allview p5 duo, Fly IQ441, and other brands.
What would i need to make a kitkat image for this model? How hard is it to "port" a 4.0.4 kernel to 4.4? What tools would i need, and also what knowledge?
I hope some dev sees this post, sheds some light over the issue and points me in the right direction. I really want to learn about Android OS developement and i feel this is the best way.
Thank you !

[Q] Rom Development for T-Mobile Prism 2(U8686)?

I've been looking around to see if I can find any roms but have only found flashable stock and stock with no carrierID(which i'm on). There was one major thread i found here on XDA that had to deal with development for this phone but it looks as if its been abandoned.(It started as a thread just introducing CWM to the device but it broke into a discussion on development of KitKat). Here's the link to the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2616299 ...........On that thread a (beginning)developer posted a MEGA link that included some device files. Here's that: https://mega.co.nz/#F!QdcSmZoY!sdjlIrp0Q2VlDdYB2CGTMw ...................... They also said that you could use this repository(link below) for development due to the phone also being a Huawei msm7x27a device. Here is the link to the github repository: https://github.com/Dazzozo/android_device_huawei_msm7x27a-common ............................... So........that's all ive found out so far about rom development for this device. If someone with developing experience can guide me and deal with my noob ways then i will be happy to develop KitKat for this device as it is wanted by me and many others.

NE**FLED AndroidTV Custom ROM Development

Hello Community Members,
I have been searching around for any custom ROM that is compatible with my SmartTV but was unable to find anything. A little more search around Google revealed that the brand of my TV is not official, just a re-branded Chinese TV set wich comes in many names as:
Spectrum
Neon
etc..
The model number is NE50FLED (NE**FLED) where 50/40/32 is the size of the monitor..
Software Information:

It has a custom android ROM but with limited capabilities, and I was wondering if any developers would want to give it a try and develop something more usable for these devices. Maybe, there is already something out there that I am not aware of, so please advice.
Regards,

Looking for ROM for X96s w/ S905Y

Hi,
I am looking for custom ROMs for my Pendoo X96s which seems to have a X905Y SoC. I looked around and haven't really been able to find anything.
If one doesn't exist, I was wondering if there are any instructions as to ROM hacking for this chipset? I have some, albiet, outdated experience with ROM hacking for much older android phones, but haven't really tried that with Android sticks or boxes.
Thanks
AM
look here may be it will help you:
