I want to port as I like these two ROMS but their Nougat versions not avaiable for my device . I have seen a few guides of porting and seesm they are not much difficult.
I have no clue how to build it from source ? any guide on that

If you're a newbie you should learn a lot of things from Google itself.
First of all you should consider building a CyanogenMod ROM since that's going to be good and better for you. Also see the things on AOSP.

that's a huge leap if you don't know coding. Even sometime CyanogenMod got to update few times to fix hardware issue

Android Lollipop 5.0 ROM on Low and Mid End Devices

I have an idea. My idea is a Custom ROM for Mid end and Low end devices based on Android Lollipop 5.0 but I cannot Port Roms. I Need You. I Need People who can Port Roms.
First I think that the Rom Must have very many stable Performance tweaks because the Rom should be Runs speedy like a SlimRom.
The kernel are a normal custom Kernel with dualboot options. I am still working on a Kernel what Runs with no lags, no bugs and it Runs very speedy and who can works on unlimited systems (dualboot,quadboot,...).
I have Not many ideas, please give me ideas who can idealized.
We can be a large and a good Team :highfive: .
Sorry for my Bad english.
Thanks from Germany
P.S Android Lollipop have Google Not bring it out but When it bring it out then We can porting the rom. We Need many ideas. Please share that on all people who can porting Roms or have many ideas
For kernel build you can ask airidosas252

Porting CM12 Using 4.4 as a base

There are Lott's of threads for porting for Rom's to any device..
But most of describes to use same android versions for base and port...
But i want try porting CM12 for Galaxy Core...
I am not a developer but still want to use Cm12 on my device .. So instead of asking some one i would love to port it by myself:thumbup:

That is hard to do without a background in building from source and knowing some coding and kernel stuff. You don't have lollipop yet on that device so it will be even harded. You can't just copy some files. You need a device tree and modify the kernel and then build cm12 from source.
Thanks for taking time .. But i would if i can port CM11 at least

Well I don't know about your device (it's basically the same for all Qcom device, I don't know about MTK). Porting by copying files is less reliable then building from source (well it's way easier). It's very very hard to solve bugs when copying files and if the base has bugs the port might be even more buggy.

actually i had tried doing that.but on my broadband connection syncing from git using the tutorial at google was very difficult.went on for many days and still i couldnt get source downloaded and syncd.used command to pick up latest branch.still failed.that why i thought about this way.Do you think the porting as i mentioned above ia possible.specially the cross porting using 5.1.1 base to port a marshmallow aosp made for nexus 5x or even one plus one bacon

To what I know.. It's not possible.. You've to sync git for sure.. That's how every dev is working here..

this was the reason
sorry to disturb but i go this idea based on this video here
How to Port a Custom Rom to your Android Smartphone
would have posted the link but i am not being allowed to
Well try syncing some source and build.. You can't just port it.. Maybe the tutorial is about different kinda ROMs like MIUI
Try slim.. It's little less.. Still you've to spent 20-30GB
Send from my OnePlus X
the video i spoke about was to port pac man rom uaing cm as the basefor galaxy grand 2.however the guy said that we need the porting rom to be of a similary spexed device.
that had got me wondering if i can port aosp and that too cross porting where the base remains a 5.1.1 cm made for one plus x.
i would have loved developing from source but my crappy internet will never allow me to
Try OxygenOS as base.. It's completely for OpX and you can add features etc.
Send from my OnePlus X
ok so i will use:-
1.aosp 6 marshmallow made for some device ,or nexus 5x rom
2.oxygen os 2.1.3-x as base
i hope thats fine.will update here if i succeed
you will definietly not succeed.

LMAO!
Have to give him points for trying though. Good luck sand87ch
I am in a similar situation. I read infinite articles, millions of videos (not literally) but I still didn't get my answer. I am trying to build AOSP from Source for onyx, already synced Source code but now I want to know what changes I should be making in order to get working device tree, kernel tree, vendor, common and other things for AOSP 7.0? I have sources of CM14 but I don't know what exactly to do and no one seems to like helping out noobs with potential to learn (at least I think that about myself but again, sorry if this question is stupid)

Android Oreo for mi pad?

I'm not sure that will mi pad get android Oreo unofficial though it's capable of running smoothly and google has already given the source code so let's hope to get it on our beast. Support this thread and hopefully the developers would read and help us. ?
Like your enthusiasm. But first let us get a proper build of Android N. I am sure once we get everything going for N, developers will shift their attention to O as I believe our hardware is plenty capable to run the OS.
I don't think android n stable?
The UI of android n is glitchy and some laggyness is there. ?

lol the android N in our tab is still on beta stage, don't hope for an android O.
this kind of thread shouldn't make at first place though
Developers are working with shield kernel once that is finished you can hope for Oreo

Need help creating a custom rom

Hello,
I would like to know if anyone could tell me how to create / port a custom rom to update (and maybe optimize) my Asus ZenPad 7.0 Z370C P01W to Android Oreo or Nougat.
I know there are many guides but there are too many so if someone could tell me which one to follow, if it is better to port a rom like LineageOS, a stock rom of Samsung or Asus or create my own rom and if it is possible to test the rom before installing / do not brick the tablet.
Thanks for your help
