Before you read this theard:
There isn't any rom which you can install.
This Development Thread is for users who have any idea, something to share.

As we know our L9 has locked bootloader. We can't flash boot.img and recovery.img, but we can load custom ramdisk and recovery through 2nd-init.
What is 2nd-init?: Read there: http://cvpcs.org/blog/2011-06-14/2nd-init._what_it_is_and_how_it_works
My CWM Recovery for L9 is also loaded through 2nd-init, so we have ready 2nd-init scripts. Where recovery and custom ramdisk will be storied:
boot.tar (custom ramdisk): /system/bootstrap/boot.tar
recovery.tar (custom recovery): /system/bootstrap/recovery.tar
So, we have 2nd-init script, we can start porting rom to our device (I have P760 variant). We have to port rom from Prada 3.0 and Atrix 2 (very similar devices) or compile from sources. For now 1st option is better because we haven't got any sources expect 10a rom.
At the end I attach full 2nd-init script. You can test it on stock rom, it works. Only need to edit ramdisk and port some files to get working CM9/10. Link to ramdisk is in second post. In the most part it is playing with the files and ramdisk (like editing the lg prada, 4x was edited stock ramdisk), because we can not run custom kernels. There are many specific files, which ramdisk, kernel checks md5 checksum of this files (drm files).
IMPORTANT INFORMATIONS ARE ALSO IN POST BELLOW (2nd post, links to important files).
This is the end for now. Theard will be updated.
What can you do:
Post something useful for us
Have an idea, write there
Links to useful websites/theards
Share some info about porting roms to L9
Notes about the idea, porting roms, very important information
Please don't:
Ask for ETA's & Troll
Edit: Now. Cyanogenmod 9 is working. If you want to port roms use this rom as base. Ramdisk is storied in /system/bootstrap/boot.tar
For now I don't neeed tester, It don't work for now. I and persons who help me are working, but it isn't easy as porting with unlocked bootloader.
For devs. Some informations and links. I add some important links. Some of them are from Optimus 4X. I added it, because In 4X CM10 ramdisk is fixed drm conflict (everything I will write in this post).
LG Prada Cyanogemod 9 (uses 2nd-init, stock LG kernel, easiest way to port): http://goo.im/devs/milaq/p940/cm9/cm-9-20121126-NIGHTLY-p940.zip
LG Optimus 4X CM10 (there is fixed booting, drm conflict). Important files in this rom: /system/bin/netd /system/bootmenu/boot.tar (also I upload it without rom), /system/drm, system/drm2, /system/lgdrm.tar: http://d-h.st/ivJ
10b (branded 10a) P760 system and boot (ramdisk) dump: http://www.mediafire.com/?9b4oywl94j0bp
Optimus 4X Stock boot (ramdisk): http://www.mediafire.com/?k48h27ln4xnygrh
Optimus 4X CM10 ramdisk (you can compare with 4X Stock ramdisk, see what's changet, try to do this on L9, also included in 4X rom /system/bootmenu/boot.tar): http://www.mediafire.com/?fia0d72cs93cy71
Stock P760 ramdisk with ro.secure=0 edited to work with 2nd-init (bootable, working, to boot install cwm recovery and copy boot.tar to /system/bootstrap, it's base to port cm9/cm10). Only one bug is soft button light:http://www.mediafire.com/?ra5itp818uijpk3
CM 10 for Atrix 2 (similar device to L9): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1869692
Important theards/posts:
Similar devices to L9:
LG Prada 3.0 (The same platform, manufacturer, different screen resolution, similar ramdisk, also similar some files specific to platform, phone model)
Atrix 2 (the same resolution, platform, other manufacturer)
hi,i have a P760,if you need testers count with me.
have you recovery installed and i know how to flash kdz and everything else.(install zip and create backup).sorry for my google translate..

I have P765, fit for all your requirements, but don't have much free time. In any case, I will try to help if I can.
I can test the rom on a P760
Hallo guys, finally we have our sub forum, for me to begin will be also good to have one clean and deodexed stock rom with some advance, like script for kernel OK and........
Also agree to port cynogen 9 and other rom:thumbup:
Inviato dal mio LG-P760 con Tapatalk 2
count me in... P760... had a lot of android based devices. so i know to flash via recovery, also flashed P760 several times via kdz..
can test for the p769. I'm well versed in cwm flashing and have reflashed this phone using kdz several times.
P-765 user
Let me try it
i will test as well, got an lg l9 P760 thats the reason we are here. to support and try :highfive: hope it works and to go forward even more with CM 9,10, 10,1 ....
I can also help test with p760 , can do all that you ask and have alot experience in device modding/testing
Hi man! Im a developer for three lg phones and have p760! Do you know how compile cmX for phone that have locked bootloader?
Inviato dal mio LG-P760 con Tapatalk 2
P769 here.... happy flashing etc.
Sorry saw the post very late. I am here for...
P765 Indian (Asian) variant.
Excellent write up on 2nd-init at http://cvpcs.org/blog/2011-06-14/2nd-init._what_it_is_and_how_it_works
Thanks it explained many things and hijacking booting sequences.
I know its really early, but do you think its possible to have a touch led notification feature built into a rom? Thats the only thing missing from this phone I dont like. I miss having a blinking light telling me if I missed a call or message.
I know theres an app on the store but from my using it, its pretty buggy and doesnt always work. And it seems to eat up the battery too.
Would be difficult to compile the original KDZ 10E with root after install?

Not only that app but this feature itself is battery consuming. Tried this on O2x and removed after noticing battery drain.

ICS Source code for all L9 variants (except 765) are released. Should it be a problem for devs to compile rooted KDZ from source? Just curious to know this from devs.
One more thing, now as CWM by Artas185x is fully working, is it possible for sharing restorable zips with rooted roms? Again just curious to know.
well as of now i have set up a petition for lg to unlock the bootloader of all L9 Variants maybe if we get enough signatures they will do as they are doing with the 4X and the optimus G in my signature below hopefully they get a hint

I guess its because the cpu gets woken up each time the leds go on? Is there a way to toggle a low brightness blinking or pulse when a notification is received that will shut off again once the screen is turned back on? I wouldnt think one or both of the leds blinking at low brightness by themselves would take up too much battery power?
I've just signed the petition and i'm ready to test with P760
hey guys, just wondering how difficult it would be to do this and keep the finger print scanner. i (with no android developing experience) tried following a few tuts to try and port a 4.3 rom with little success, i managed to get it to start installing in cwm then to give a permission failure or something similar so yeah just a quick question

Permission failure? Noob here too
I am guessing the ROM you tried to port checks for the Model number of the phone before flashing. What ROM did you try to port to and if you could post the instructions here we will make this the porting thread
Given that HTC One has all the custom ROM's and kernels we need devs or someone like us who can follow instructions to start doing it. I am sure we will get help from one another and end up with custom ROM's for the MAX.
I was also thinking of doing this but just to start with i don't want to look at the fingerprint scanner and may be later we could get it working.
I am certain most people would be willing to not have a working fingerprint scanner, as a trade off for a few custom roms/kernels...
Well to start you need to make sure your Meta-Inf directory is one from the Max, you should be porting from something with the same board as well which would give you less headaches in the long run. The One would be a good starting port since they use the same boards (msm8960 Snapdragon 600) The updater script in Meta-Inf needs to be pointing to the correct device. For example and this is just an example in the beginning of the updater script which is really the instructions for flashing the rom in recovery shouldn't say something like "get prop blah blah m7vzw" the m7 being the model # should be t6vzw if you were using a Verizon device etc etc.. All mount points need to be exactly what the Max's mount points are otherwise it will never flash.. The original One mount points aren't the same as the One Max. Also the kernel from the Max is a must, plus in system/lib you need the modules as well as hardware. In system/bin you need vold, vold is device specific. In system/etc you need vold.fstab again device specific stuff. The you need the hardware directory, which is touch capacitive buttons and LED's and what not. Those may be the same as the One since they are laid out the same.. The audio should most likely be the same but you would need to remove all the Beats Audio crap from system/etc since the One Max isn't a beats device.. GSM to GSM may be an easy port, CDMA to CDMA may be a little more difficult. Although they use libril-qc-qmi-1.so I think it is, that may be a typo but that's something like what the lib path will point to, the code may be slightly different in telephony for CDMA LTE devices. That would be found in framework.jar if applicable framework2.jar..
I could most likely easily get a port done, I'm just very limited to time.. Some of the tutorials out there are very generic and would kind of work well if you have 2 very identical devices with minor changes and manufactured around the same time small example would be like the HTC Desire and the HTC Thunderbolt.. That's a pretty straight forward port with some minor audio tweaks since sound image in system/etc is different and that as well are devices that would require a RIL hack as stated above with framework.jar... That right there would be strictly smali/baksmali hacking which I have some knowledge with but by no means a master of it lol... That is unless we had source for certain things but that isn't likely by no means... If anyone is interested in getting to work I'm more then willing I just sometimes have a hectic schedule... There is more to porting then just a few quick changes if you want a clean solid daily driver port... I started to port MIUI V5 just haven't really had much of a chance to test it. I have 3 MIUI ports built all slightly altered to eventually test different hacks..
The reason I chose MIUI V5 to port is because a good deal of HTC MIUI ROMs are based heavily on Sense.. Not many of them are AOSP based anymore which to me is kind of a shame.... The Chinese must have gotten tired of so many ports popping up with a lot of broken stuff because they all use to be AOSP based and to get them ported required a ton smali hacks and now when you decompile an actual source built official chinese MIUI rom and you diff out lets say services.jar from CM and services.jar from MIUI for every line of code like cdmareceiver.smali in CM in MIUI it's i.smali then cdmareceiver$1.smali in CM in MIUI it's 23.smali.... Those aren't actual lines those are just examples but they made it damn near impossible to properly diff stuff out.. You'd literally have to go through thousands and thousands upon thousands of lines to figure out which matches what and then make the changes you feel like need to be made and then hope you didn't break something in the process.... It sucks lol...
So yeah most of the HTC devices are now MIUI converted Sense based builds and I'm hoping are a little easier to port with less changes!! But I guess we'll see?!?!
Like I said, anyone wanting to work with me I will be more then glad to lend my knowledge of Android! I need someone to get me motivated again. I really miss working on Android and building stuff porting stuff whatever.. It's just fun! Plus we desperately need some form of a custom Android really really bad.... All of us do... I mean I'm Verizon, but Sprint, the International crew, all of us....
Lets pool all of our knowledge together and do some work!!! To all reading this if you are down contact me in this thread or PM me and lets get busy!

Thanks, i just installed it via virtual box without disturbing my system.
Just got android kitchen up and running, on prting sides of things got further this time, into aroma installes but error 7 which suggested earlyer is to do with mount points, if anyone could happen to help with theese it would be fab ))
Ok this is good start, i am proud of us here
I have got Android Kitchen running on my Ubuntu via virtual box.
I tried to set my working folder and tried tried to import my TWRP stock ROM backup. It seems like Android kitchen will require a CWM backup and TWRP does not seems to work.
With the TWRP backup i got this error
NON-YAFFS/NON-TAR FILE FORMAT DETECTED IN ROM

So i have just restored stock ROM on my phone, flashed CWM and now backing up my Stock ROM to COOK ANDROID
@[email protected] did you miss this thread just kidding, I know you have got a hectic schedule.
Again i am extremely happy to see ppl starting to develop ROM's!
Thanks for your encouragement @Murrda
No problem.. I'm home from work already and I'm off for the next 3 days so I'm actually going to get back to working on some ports. Anyone need a hand with anything as far as questions or setting up Linux or a dev environment please feel free to hit me up!

heyy i could use some help doing this part in android kitchen. straight from android kitchens page but i can't seem to get the recovery.fstab out anyway! im on t6ul verson of the max by the way thanks
/HIDE (sorry dont know how to get this to work (forum noob here too)
Create a file under the kitchen's /tools/edify_defs folder, with the name being the same as the value of ro.product.device (found in your device's /system/build.prop file).
If the stock ROM images for your device contain the recovery.img file, extract its files from the kitchen menu: Advanced --> Tools for boot image --> Extract from boot.img/recovery.img in any folder. Then, open up its ramdisk folder, and look for /system/etc/recovery.fstab or /etc/recovery.fstab or similar FSTAB file location. Open this file to find the mount points.
See the template file in the edify_defs folder to see how to set the mount points inside the file you created. Look at the other files in that folder for examples on how to do it.
managed to flash something and get mounting things sorted ))), getting an interesting navy green screen when booting now, will let you know on further developments. its a vanilla android rom i tried insertcoin-m7-google-edition_5.0-1 to be exact

Yeah I've been trying to port gpe over to the max but I think I need the gpe kernel ported too.. I used the Max Sense kernel for it and I get a bootloop or frozen boot logo after install with no hope of getting a logcat. I didn't move the Max sense update-binary but don't think that would be an issue, both since Its gpe and I'm using aroma..

Got to exactly the same point as you, reading several tutorials online i came across this interesting line "To port Sense you have to unpack the boot.img of your base rom and edit the init.rc to change the bootclasspath and match it with the port one" which is what iv done but also got stuck in a bootloop, looking at the two kernels are are a few differences in them. I think that might be they key.

Yeah, i know for the kernel, without being able to mess with the zimage, the sense max kernel lacks the init.environ.rc from gpe, the fstab file is different(at least file extension), and there's a few things that point to sense files or folders that don't exist on gpe. Currently there is no released source for the max yet :'( so unless someone knows how to do it manually and hasn't shared HOW to do so, I just have to wait.. Hopefully it won't be too long.

Hi guys, so soon my cousin will be getting himself a nexus 5 and he asked me for help. I'm looking for a way to dual boot CM11/PA/Stock with Kali PwnPhone Community Edition. Now I know that multiROM exists but since that it isn't the process of a regular ROM flashing, I thought it might not work (might work too, that's why I am here for help). So I wanted to know of that will work and if it won't is there any other option, maybe with Ubuntu touch dual boot installer? So that's it hope I explained the situation well and thanks for helpers.

According to this: https://rstforums.com/forum/86853-build-your-own-kali-linux-pwnphone-pwnpad.rst Multirom supports this mod. Don't have any experience with it myself, but have multi booted quite a few phones including CM, FF OS, and Ubuntu Touch on the N5.
Just A Clarification.

So what I have to do, is:
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Flash TWRP
3. Flash CM11 ROM (zip file)
4. Download MultiRom Manager and install MultiRom
And then, what?
The installation process of the PwnPhone FW is different that the guide says. Instruction in attached PDF.
So how do I combine this process with multirom? Maybe have a cm11 primary ROM and stock secondary ROM (which I also don't know how to do) and do the process on the secondary? Thanks for helpers.
Does anyone know if a cyanogenmod rom for mipad 2 is available?

Dear Developers and Hackers of XDA,
I just bought this tablet. I looked around on the MIUI forum for MI Pad 2 and see that there are ways to root a developer MIUI ROM for this tablet. I also see that there are also instructions to unlock the bootloader and install a custom recovery. I am big fan of Cyanogemod and am hoping to have it on the tablet. Has anybody tried and/succeeded to port Cyanogenmod to this tablet?
Hoping for the best
Sincerely
dspati
Hi dEvasEnApati I'm in your situation! I hope to recive news as soon as possible because i want to install cyano!
Xda dev have you got some news?
Hi,
Following the instructions from the miui forum I managed to unlock the bootloader, root , install TWRP and AOSP rom. I was wondering what are the requirements to have a cyanogen mod for it? Are there CMs for devices with intel x86_64 hardware?
I'll get my mipad 2 soon! I think in a week or two then I'll Start heavy development on it ? i think of aosp is possible cm will be possible too :] I'll keep u guys updated
Hi Nailyouh,
Thank you very much for doing this!
Maybe this may help: As paul_ro21 mentioned, a working AOSP rom, which was most probably developed by Xiaomi is available on the miui forums. I have it on my mi pad 2 as well and it's working fine. I am looking forward to a CM rom for this tablet and I will be happy to help with testing!
Sincerely
dspati

Im too tired with stupid MIUI on this awesome tablet :
Stupid ram management, it has 2gb ram but it cannot run multi-tasking !
Im facing a big Problem i was not aware about..the Kernel of the MiPad2 is not open source so we are pretty f**ed by xiaomi. In fact the Kernel source has to be released but xiaomi don't care about Copyright infringements. I regret the decision buying this Tab. I like the Dualboot thingy and the aosp Rom runs smooth as butter but without the source we'll stuck on 5.1.1. really sad if you ask me, the Tablet is really beautyful and I love the outstanding Display. I'll try to figure around with the kernel from the aosp Rom next week I'll keep u informend and will make a thread if I suceed.
Cheers

Im facing a big Problem i was not aware about..the Kernel of the MiPad2 is not open source so we are pretty f**ed by xiaomi. In fact the Kernel source has to be released but xiaomi don't care about Copyright infringements. I regret the decision buying this Tab. I like the Dualboot thingy and the aosp Rom runs smooth as butter but without the source we'll stuck on 5.1.1. really sad if you ask me, the Tablet is really beautyful and I love the outstanding Display. I'll try to figure around with the kernel from the aosp Rom next week I'll keep u informend and will make a thread if I suceed.

Kernel source is now out on github. Any thoughts about it?
According to @Feherneoh 's posts in @m11kkaa 's EFIDroid thread, EFIDroid which might be the best Dual Boot(Multi Rom) solution in the past cannot support arm64 and Android 9.0+, and somebody seemed to have begun to rewrite. No news about rewrite for a long time.
DualBoot Patcher also doesn't support Android 9.0+. And its author @chenxiaolong announced that DualBoot Patcher was no longer being developed 2 months ago.
Other solutions, such as MultiROM stopped being developed even earlier.
Can anyone offer some useful informations or suggestions about dualboot for new devices and Android 9.0+ ?
Thanks.
Any help?
