Hi,
I have a moto E and want to build a custom ROM. But I'm new in building the ROM.
I read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2762685. But I wasn't sure
where to put the device/kernel/vendor source. Should I put it the root of ASOP tree?
Is there are more detailed guide in the building?
Also, I managed to build the official kernel sources https://github.com/MotorolaMobilityLLC
into a zImage file. How can I flash it to the stock ROM?
Thank you!
Hey there, I am using an msm8610 quad core device (China) and it is now currently running 4.4.2 and running 3.4.0 kennel version
Now the moto e is running msm8610 with dual core, and some developer managed to port some custom Roms from from moto e.
And my question is, if I want to port some Roms from moto e, like cyanogenmod, or paranoid android or pacman (CM is already available, I just want to know), do I need to work on kennel?
And if I want to port android lollipop from moto e, is there a new version of kennel is needed or we can normally use the kernel of stock KitKat ROM?
BTW: I or we don't have any kernel source or device tree available for our device
And another thing is, an Indonesian developer managed to swap the SD card to internal storage in KitKat (by editing kennel, he just uploaded a boot.img patch on a recovery zip, we flashed it, and sdcard turned to be the primary storage), anyone knows how to do that?
:good: thanks :good:

Hi, I m having 900T device and I want to know can install this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/unified-development/rom-tipsyos-4-1-t3393668 and select - Rom klte: TipsyOS Rom v4.x ?
And currently I m on PhoeniX ROM V12.6, so can I simply wipe and install TipsyRom/CM13 or shud I start from the Stock ?
Thanks
I am unfamiliar with Phoenix ROM, but if it is CM based,
you should be able to do a simple wipe and flash it.
If Phoenix is Touchwiz based, I always recommend
starting from scratch. Hope that helps.
Yes Phoenix is TW based and I understood, but I also gave the link and asked which link to follow, klte ? Klteusc ? Etc
I know klte is for g900f but I m bit curious, and want specific advice so I dont brick my device

You will get performance close to deodexed KitKat stock rom .. No problems so far .. surely upgrade your device to cm13 :good:

I am also thinking in flashing CM13 rom based on android 6.0.1 on my Moto-E (1st Generation) XT1021...
I am currently using the following 5.1 ROM:
Retail US 5.1 ROM (Optimized) v1.0a (311mb)Non-Deodexed:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=14437
That I Found in the following post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e/development/rom-stock-motorola-lollipop-rom-t3167111
So, I would like to know if I can safely flash directly the CM13 ROM, on top of my current v5.1 ?
And if anyone here could give me the correct link to download the CM13 ROM that works best on the Moto-E XT-1021 ?
Thanks in advance for helping me !

Yes you can directly clean flash cm13 .. make sure you use gapps 6.0 .. and flash cm13 and gapps in a single session
https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=condor
Here is the link to official nightlies

ABSathe, 1000 Thanks for the quick reply, for letting me know that I can directly clean flash cm13 over 5.1 and for the link to official nightlies !
Please confirm if this is the correct method to flash the CM13 ROM:
1) Boot into latest TWRP and Format Data: Wipe > Format DATA > Yes
2) Transfer ROM to SDCARD or Internal Storage: CM13 ROM + gapps 6.0
3) TWRP > Wipe > Factory reset and flash CM13 ROM, and then Flash gapps 6.0 (flash cm13 and gapps in a single session)
4) Reboot.
However, since I have already installed in my Moto-T, the version 2.8.7 of TWRP ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...recovery-twrp-2-8-6-0-touch-recovery-t3100879 ), I would like to know if is better and also you recommended me to install first ( using fastboot flash recovery) the cm-13.0-20160810-NIGHTLY-condor-recovery.img (instead of TWRP 2.8.7) ? :
CyanogenMod Recovery:
https://download.cyanogenmod.org/get/jenkins/173585/cm-13.0-20160810-NIGHTLY-condor-recovery.img
And then the:
CyanogenMod Build
cm-13.0-20160810-NIGHTLY-condor.zip (322.76 MB)
https://download.cyanogenmod.org/get/jenkins/173585/cm-13.0-20160810-NIGHTLY-condor.zip
And Finally - Flash gapps 6.0:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/gapps-gapps-6-0-1-minimal-t3276606
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24533103863139560
One last question, since I know that the CM13 is not based in an official Motorola release, I would like to know what is working flawlessly, and what is not working with in the Moto-E if I use this CM13 ROM ?
Please excuse all the questions, but I will like to be fully sure of the method and the correct files, that I have to use to successfully flash my Moto-E to CM13, to avoid future problems.
Thanks again for all your help !!
@ulises.rodriguez
I would recommend following steps
1)Download latest twrp (3.0.2) from twrp official website
2) Reboot into recovery and choose downloaded recovery image and then select recovery partition
(Twrp updated .. u can reboot for file transfer)
3)Transfer rom and gapps6.0 to sd card
4)Reboot into twrp and wipe /system,/data,/cache,/dalvikcache partitions (internal storage is optional )
5)choose rom zip (latest from cm downloads)
6)after rom zip is flashed successfully .. choose gapps zip (use open gapps Pico)
7)After successfully flashing both files .. reboot into system and enjoy new rom on moto e
Cm13 today's nightly working flawless for me
(And regarding your first sentence of post(1000 thanks ) .. I can't see them on my profile XD (Just joking .. hit thanks only if u want ))

ABSathe, thanks again for your fast response and also valuable help !
Is this the open gapps6.0 Pico that you have installed in your Moto-E ? :
open_gapps-arm-6.0-pico-20160810.zip
http://opengapps.org/?download=true&arch=arm&api=6.0&variant=pico
With regard to my question about how well it is currently working the CM13 in the Moto-E, and what is not working yet...
I was asking because I've heard that as the CM13 was not based on a official version of Motorola, some features of the Moto-E did not work very well...
So, I would like to know, if the proximity sensor, Phone Signal Bluetooth, Camera, Gyroscope and all other sensors, if all of them are working well, or if any have some limitations ?
Are there any features that you have found that work best with the CM13, than with the official ROMs from Motorola for the Moto-E ?
Thanks again for helping me and always answer all my requests !

Hello there,
I am trying to build a rom from scratch for xolo black device. The problem is that they have uploaded only kernel source.
Therefore, I can't figure out how to build the device tree and other things to make a working rom package. If I want to port cm12 to my qualcomm device (unsupported), then what I need to download and the order to executing the commands. I downloaded cm 12 sources but after that cant figure out how to compile other sources and libraries when all I have is kernel source code.
I want to use normal official google version of lollipop/marshmallow as the stock firmware UI is laggy and full of bugs.
I just cant seem to get a straight guide to make a rom from scratch with custom apps and launcher while using the kernel provided by the vendor.
Please help me out.
Thanks.
