Hello,
I read alot lately about porting Lollipop (CM 12.1) to my device (Allview V1 Viper which is basically a rebranded Gionee Elife E3) but i have some questions:
1. As far as i understood, there are some problems with CM and Mediatek devices. However i saw some posts with people succeeding to boot CM 12.1 on these devices. Can this be achieved ?
2. If yes, can i use KitKat stock kernel with a Lollipop build ? (my common sense says no, but who knows ?) If no, how can i build a kernel for Lollipop for this device. I saw that Mediatek released kernel source, can that be used ? Also, can i use the drivers from KitKat ? If no, which and where should i get the drivers from ? Can i use any files from KitKat stock rom for a Lollipop port ?
This will clear some things for the beginning.
Thanks in advance
Hi, I need help in porting rom. My device is Lenovo A858(MT6732), Android version 4.4.4 , Kernel 3.10.48. I tried porting Lollipop rom to my device but no success got stuck in bootloop. But when i tried to port 4.4.4 it booted. and the only bug it has is camera. I am trying to port lollipop rom to my device. Some says it's possible to port Lollipop to kitkat. I have seen lollipop kernel versions are 3.10.67. Is that because of my kernel version? I have seen one cm13 rom that it has kernel version of 3.10.48 but different chips(MT6582) Someone guide me thx a lot

so ive been thinking of porting LOS14.1 or cyanogen for it ive searched the internet and i found some methods they said i should already have rom working for my device as base rom i already one (CM13 ) and port rom (not from other device) woking for me also so if i have already lineage os working for my device why ill think of porting it? can someone tell me a method for porting from another device ?
Hi! I wanna ask you if it is possible to port touch-wiz rom to mido? I've found the device with similar soc and camera resolution. If yes, i can try, but I need help
So as the Q says.
If you still don't get what I am trying to ask:
Suppose there are two very similar devices one has jellybean for it and the other does not so how do I port that ROM to the other device without a base ROM. AND IF I CAN'T. Then please tell how to build ROM from source to a UNSUPPORTED device.
Thanks in advance
