The kernel does not implement the dtd format sadly, but we are working on a device tree as well as a better twrp.
Thats a good news.
Thank you!!

Try this my nice guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1935162
You will need you're recovery.img and boot.img from you're device.
Those files are used to make a device tree/github for you're device.
You should first try the recovery builder site from the link. This gives a nice bit of info! Even might build a working recovery for you. And it give you the files for the device tree to! You will than have to add some info to the files in the device tree. Info about the cpu, gpu, kernel, recovery and others. Goodluck
Hi there,
I have a chinese phone Haier W718, as I buy it to make ROM modifications and learn how to compile and edit Android ROMs. I have the system.img dump from the original ROM and now I want to make the following.
1. Decompile the system.img file
2. Add new system languages
3. Compile and flash the ROM
So my question is how to properly decompile it and add the language that I want? I search for some tools in XDA but I am not sure if the things that I found are the proper ones. Can you please give me the right links for tools about this whole process. I also want to find some more information how to properly add a system language. Thank you in advance! By the way, I am using Linux so it will be better if the tools for compile and decompile are Linux compatible.
Cheers
Hi.
Im going to build CM 11 for my unsupported device LG Optimus Lte2. I need help with many steps as im a newbie.
1) First of all are the steps explained here all which i need to do or do i have to do some extra steps with my mobile's boot.img as my mobile is an unsupported mobile.
2) i am very confused with making the local manifest for downloading my mobile's device tree, kernel and vendor.
To be honest idk where to get these three files from. I found a link on github but i dont know to recognize a device tree so can someone please tell me if this is a device tree? https://github.com/zcop/android_devi..._d1lkt?files=1
Please also tell if i download the kernel and vendor file found in that link or any other?
I would be very delighted if someone can make the local manifest file for me using the above link or atleast explain to me in noob-friendly way about how to make it.
3) After that i have to make device tree compatible just by changing the name and some contents of some files as shown in this post. Am i right? But in the post it was shown for slim rom. I replace slim with cm, right?
After that i compile the rom.
Is that all?
