My smartphone is a Blu Life Pure Mini with mt6589t SoC.
I was reaserching ways to port and flash a custom rom with Android Kitkat at least in it, because I want to be able to play Pokemon Go. (please, you must help me haha)
Anyway, I found that I need to update not only the rom, but yet to Root it, to update the Kernel and to install a kitkat compatbile custom Recovery. THEN, I will be able to port and flash the rom in my phone.
As far as I know, Blu released a kikat update for Blu Life Play, that uses mt6589 SoC, but not for Blu Life Pure Mini (mt6589t ... is it compatible with a mt6589 rom without the T?).
I was able to install custom roms before in popular old phones like Samsumg Galaxy S and Ace, and a random Sony device before, but because everything was almost premade by some mercyfull souls arround the internet. The problem is that Blu Life Pure Mini is a not a very popular device, so nobody did that things to make my life easier yet.
Then I decided I could go arround and, maybe with a lot of help of cool guys of the android community, make it for this device and help other people that have it and can't update their phones.
So, what do I need?
- A mt6589t Kernel compatible with Android Kitkat or higher;
- A custom recovery. To make it faster and easier, I found a topic of a guy that did some work arround it in 2014, but I can't understand how to port it by myself very well in his post. And to do it his way, I must have the kernel that I can't find anywere.
His topic here in XDA forums: http://forum.xda-developers.com/andr...based-t2970004
- A root tutorial for Blu Life Pure mini. My googling habilities are failling on me, then maybe you could help me doing it faster and better. ><

Hello there.
I recently changed my device from a Xperia X8 to the new LG L4-II (E440), but i noticed that development for these new LG devices is almost nowhere to be seen because of its Mediatek hardware (at least that's what devs complain about)
I used MiniCM10 on the X8 (JB 4.1.2) and noticed that both of these devices have the same resolution (although the LG has a bigger screen), so my question is:
Since both devices have the same resolution, and both Roms are Jelly Bean 4.1.2, is it possible to use the UI files from the custom Rom in Lg's stock rom, (SystemUI, framework-res, stuff like that) without bricking the software?
LG doesn't have a custom recovery and both phones have very different hardware, so porting the Rom for me is out of the question, i'm no developer... but since they have the same resolution, it would be fun to merge some CM flavour into the stock rom.
Thank you guys in advance.

no..bro yu simply cant copy the ui files for another rom...dey wont work... U may end up soft bricking or bootlooping ur device...
Yu must port it for ur device
and another thing yu cant simply port cyanogen from another phone to a mediatek device...it will never work....(may cause hard brick also)
only roms of mediatek can be ported for mediatek devices dat also the chipset should be same (like mt6577 to mt 6577) or (mt 6589 to mt6589) not from (mt6577 to mt6589) and vv
hit thanks rather typing
Anyone can change the UI without root, just install nova launcher, sun beam live wallpaper and a custom notification bar from the play store.

http://www.gigabytecm.com/en/goodscontent.php?id=308&type=1
with a android official rom 4.4.4 and my device is already rooted
I need a custom rom
5.0 Lollipop
( portuguese language Pt-Pt, not Brazil Pt-Br)
with recovery, root and usb otg (if possible)
Sorry my bad english
Can anyone help me ?
Tanks in advance
ZTE Blade S6 Plus is similar equipement?
Maybe I can use same custom recovery ?
Help me please
It's a very good phone. I think it must be featured here on XDA developers. The phone has Android 4.4 and no upgrades are planned from Gigabyte. So, it would be nice if someone start developing custom Lollipop ROM for this wonderful device, it's well worth it! I'd definitely buy beer for you or something
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!
There is no custom ROM available on whole internet. Can Some kind Hearted Developer Can Make any Custom ROM for the Infocus snap 4, As it will Be For All Snap 4 users searching For It. The Phone Has 4Gb ram and 64 GB internal Memory but Performance is not Up to the mark, It Works Like A 2-3 GB phone. With Custom Rom, It would Be optimized to Deliver A Better Result.
Hi bro same problem i havent find custom rom for infocus snap4 i think XDA should look after it
Though, I'm not a pro, I'll try rooting and porting a ROM from similar device, probably one with stock android and update *iff* I succeed. Looking forward to your support.
Thank You
