[HELP] Good MT6592(m) Porting guide - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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!

What do I need to port Cyanogenmod to my device?

Hey there,
I've previously ported MIUI to my MT6582 device but I still consider myself a noob especially when it comes to CM.
My device is called Innjoo Note E and running stock Kitkat..There're no custom ROMs available for it so I wanna try to port CM 11.
What exactly do I need apart from my Stock ROM? What're the correct procedures for porting?
btw I stumbled upon this while googling around.. is it legit?

[Help Needed] Porting CM 10.1 from MT6592 to MT6582

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

Lenovo Tab A8-50F

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.

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!

[Q]Need idea/suggestion in flashing Custom Rom for Cloudfone Thrill Plus

Hello guys,
Need help for a custom rom compatible with my device. It runs on MediaTek's MT6580, i already flash TWRP v3.0.2 but have not rooted it yet since I need to flash a custom rom, my reason is to remove bloatware and solve my flickering screen. I understand that i by running on custom rom, I would be able to stop my screens from flickering. I would like to install CM13.1 or Lineage OS but I want to ask some experts here first if there's much better ROM that I can use from your recommendations.
Thanks,
Another inquiry regarding porting custom rom, I found some roms dedicated for MT MK6850 devices i flashed it directly to my phone (stock rom) but I get an error 7, my question is do I need to port it to my device? If so, I understand that you need a custom rom compatible for my device as Base and the custom rom I want as port, how to do it if i am from a stock rom?
Thanks,
