Upgrading Ported Custom ROM
Hello everyone here,
By following this thread so far, I've managed to port a custom ROM successfully for my device from existing Base ROM. Kudos to ArjunrambZ for this helpful thread for noobs like me. But both the ROMs are Android 4.1.1 . Now can anyone help me how to upgrade the version(Example: I want to upgrade to Android 4.4.4) of my Ported ROM? I googled a lot but I couldn't find anything useful/understandable for me. Thank you and thanks to KJ for pushing me in the right direction :cyclops:
ROM structure
Nice guide I haven't actually tried this yet but I have a few questions
As far as i knw porting means running a rom on a device for which it was not created
If this is the case why do we copy only specific folders (apps, fonts, media, framework) . from port rom to base rom? So there r still parts of original rom in new ported rom what is work of those parts? And what is work of parts we copied from port rom?
At 1st i thought the remain of base rom which we didn't replace is device specific i.e it contains drivers, etc am i correct?
Plus i have one more query what if i want to port a completely diff version port rom
For example i have a note 2 and i knw there won't be any lollipop release for it
So what if i want to port lollipop to my device since i have base rom as kitkat and port rom as lollipop, is it possible cross version porting?
Thanks

I tried your method and there were a few problems.
I took cosmic rom for galaxy s duos as the base rom.
I didnt see any set perm files in this base rom , so i could not copy.
Not many files were there in init.d of Omnirom 5.1.1 which i used as port rom as compared yo what you have shown in ur tutorial.
I still continued and zipped the rom and it was installed but ,NOW ITS STUCK ON BOOT!!!!!!
Its bricked , right ?

No you cant flash any rom. It has to be for your device. You Re mostly out of luck with knock off devices
Hey there,
I've previously ported MIUI to my MT6582 device but I still consider myself a noob especially when it comes to CM.
My device is called Innjoo Note E and running stock Kitkat..There're no custom ROMs available for it so I wanna try to port CM 11.
What exactly do I need apart from my Stock ROM? What're the correct procedures for porting?
btw I stumbled upon this while googling around.. is it legit?

I am also on the same track. Did you get anything useful?
Hey guys... First of all, beware, I am a Noob. Like seriously, don't ask me to compile a new rom from the source codes...
I have a tablet from IBall called IBall Slide 3G Q7218 and as far as I know there are no developers for it. I wanted to be one myself but I found it difficult as it required Linux command knowledge.
So I am here to know that if I want install a lineage os (or any other rom) can I use the rom built for other device with similar hardware and change the details in build.prop to make it boot??? I asked this because my daily phone Micromax a311 and a similar a310 both have same rom and I tHink it is because of the hardware similarities..
So guyz pls reply fast and let me know wheth er i am moving in the right track...
