hey guys,
im trying to port a rom for Lenovo a1000 t I found this rom for a device called lava iris(with similar MTK 6577 chipset) which is a lollipop themed rom.
need some assistance in editing the build prop.
Since you are porting from a lower processor to a higher , you'll have to edit the build.prop a lot.

like, I edited the permissions section in the updater-script, I also made some changes in build-prop.
when I flashed it, it got flashed but it was stuck in a boot loop...

* The dpi ( if its more or less than your device's dpi , the ROM won't boot).
* Re-check if you have edited the systemui.apk or the framework.apk such that the values don't match.
* Check if the port has ' update-script ' or ' updater-script '. many new recoveries now don't support the amend format.
* Confirm that the updater-script values are not obsolete.
* Make sure you have an updated recovery.
Good Luck

after too many test i finally made a patch for porting ics stock roms from arc/s (and maybe other xperia 2011 devices) to pur lovely xperia play
it will install all the things that you need for fully working rom on xperia play and deletes the cybershot camera(because it not working on our device)
installation guide:
there are 2 ways for installing
1-if the rom has armo installer
2-if it doesnt have armo installer
if it has armo installer its very easy to use this
here is the instruction
1-open rom zip and ics rom porter.zip files with winrar
2-find the device section in rom zip file
3-drag all the files inside system folder in the ics rom porter.zip to lt28i(xperia arc) folder of rom zip
4-now simply flash the rom zip ans choose xperia arc as your device and everything will be fine
if the rom doesnt have armo installer
do the same thing as i said for the the roms with armo installer but instead of draging the files to lt28i folder drag them to system folder
bugs:
1-no touchpad. i need help for this part.
2-flashable.zip is broken. i need help for this one too
3-build.prob will be replaced with xperia z v5 by markphyton so you wont see the original tweaks after the port
4-some of the roms will give bootloop because they have more space than our system partition. if some one can repartiton a kernel with more system storage it will be great
to do list:
1-making an armo zip with all build.prob form popular roms and the requested roms
2-adding touchpad fix
tested on(working):
1-anzumi : by myself
2-4.1.b.1.13(arc version by jader) : by myself
tested on(not working):
xperia ray 4.1.b.1.13 (touchscreen had some problems)
download link:
http://d-h.st/eJv
thanks to:
1-markphyton : i have taken my files from his rom
2-all the developers of xperia arc :for making roms(that gived me the idea of this patch)
3- xda: all of us know why
4-dev host : i use it for uploading my files
5-xperia play users : for not giving up
reserved
please help me for fixing the bugs
i will start working on gb and jb patch as soon as i get time
waiting for reports now
that all i can do now
if you want to help for completing this patch i need help for these things
1- someone with good knowledge in making armo installer and update.zip files
2-someone for helping me in making build.prob files of requested roms
3-(the moost ipmortant) helping me for fixing touchpads
Smokerman is good in porting roms, you should ask him for touchpad fix
I have basic knowledge of aroma installer and build.prop editing, if i can, i'll help
touchpads
@smokerman
can you help me for fixing the touchpads?
i will release an update soon
things that i changed:
1-fixed the flashable zip
2-im using 4.0.4 ics build.prob instead of xperia z rom by markphyton
jb patch is being tested now
for now i only get bootloops
but im trying to solve the problem
i aslo wanted to make an gb patch but i saw that we will get a little problem in gamepad after porting gb roms from arc
(always open game pad. you cant use touchscreen for gaming anymore in ported gb roms.)

i can help for sure..what is the rom? send me the link..i will look into it on the weekend.
well im making a patch for all of the roms
i need to know the way so i can support all the roms that xperia play users want
do you use farenheith's patch for fixing the touchpad in stock based roms?
update coming in less than 30 minutes
im doing the final test
changelog:
1-you don't need to do anything yourself now. just flash the rom + the porter package and everything is finished
2-build.prob replaced with 4.1.b.1.13 for xperia play (made by myself)
3-updated most of the files
to do list:
1-building a 410mg system partition kernel.(i really need help or this one. i don't have enough experience)
2-fixing touchpads (i really dont know how to this because i never fixed touchpads for stock based ics roms. please help me )
also i saw project lard remover script
it can remover build.prob lines
if i can remove xperia arc lines and replace them with xperia play lines most of the bugs will be fixed
but my problem is with different build.prob lines like 4.1.b.1.13 or 4.1.b.0.631 and these things
for now i will add a guide about how to make the build.prob yourself for activating the build.prob tweaks of the rom after applying my patch(for better speed)
update: i got bootloop using the new zip although its working with the old way of porting (extracting the files to the system folder)
i will release it when i fix this problem

Dear Friends / Dev / Vistors.,
I am looking for a long time for cm7 without no bug.. Finally CyanogenMod 7.2 for Galaxy Y (S5630) Has been released By bieltv.3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=4686683 With CM Specific Kernel :good:
But FM radio and usb tetherstill have a bug
other than
RC 4:
Fixed al 3g and Data issues on EXT4
My FIX.zip integrated on the ROM zip
IMEI is showing on EXT4 data partition
RILD is now prebuilt and updated last LibRIL.
Broken WIFI hotpost os wprking again
Icon of Wifi Hotpost is working well
ethd back again
RNDIS and USB0 are initialized in USB tether (still not working)
Added all offline charging files
Fixed offline charging using my 3.0 #7 kernel
NOTE: No format is needed, update-script has been modify to format the partition automatically
many dev have created hundreds of there rom on "CM 7 RC.2" which is most nicely theamed :good:
I Decide to use there Rom on Rc4.
LIKE PORTING ROM
Simple method
1, RC.4 Rom as base rom
2, Any rom based on cm7
3, Open base rom zip with Winrar (or other) ( pls not exctact zip file) and open system folder.
4. Delete app folder, font, framework, build.prop (" dont delete media because it consist offline battery chargering animation files")
5, Open Rom u need to Port to Rc.4 copy those folder and files (app folder, font, framework, media, build.prop)
and directly drag into base rom /system/ (If you can work with build.prop to change ver info) but i am lazy :silly:
6, on base rom open system/etc/ and delete init.d and permissions
7, copy those folders from other cm7 rom and drag into the base rom system/etc/
8, last META-INF on base rom just go into Meta-inf/com/google/andriod then delete updater-script
9. darg updater -script from port rom to base rom RC4
"the flash as per Insturction given by Mr bieltv.3"
"And please do it with your own risk"
By this method I Ported many CM7 rom..
And for MIUI, lewa some more files to be copy like media, and libs etc.... i have some doubt on that so let we decuse about that later
and this is my 1st post so Any mistakes please tel me.. thanks
My porting method is a little bit quick and faster.

I want to build MIUI V6 for my GT-P3100 but only thing is that it's an MDPI device.
I still tried something and here's what I did -->
1) setup patchrom on my Ubuntu.
2) downloaded the miui v6 repo from github
3)used slimkat as base rom for my device ( thank you @Android-Andi)
4)got stuck after issuing the "make fullota" command. I got error regarding multiple configurations while installing framework-res.apk to put folder.
5) I changed the lcd density in build.prop to 240 to at least get a flash able zip although it might not work.
But I still got the same error.
I am following the guide available on github.com/MiCode/patchrom
It is written in broken English but still is quiet clear.
Then to check if I am doing something wrong, I built miui for nexus 5 using the same method and it worked flawlessly.
Could it be due to using slimkat as my base.?
I could use some help here as its my first time with miui and I have never built from source although I will surely build from source if I get enough time and a good guide?
You could try my CM build as base to cross check.
Hi,
I am talking about those custom rom here..
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j7/development/rom-a5-2017-rom-galaxy-j75-t3531018
A recompiled kernel that is permissive would ber really great. The one currently provided there is a user version with no compile time modification to allow any existing methods (like setenforce command or a boot time script to set from file) to toggle it.
Also i wonder how can i use samsung radio with this. I found the library files all right. Tried to manually introduce the apk with proper permissions. But system logs kept throwing errors with fc. A5 has fm too. Why can't we use it then ?
Is it possible to use j7 kernel with this rom?
I know it's a lot of questions. Hope the devs would kindly respond. Thanks.
Ps. The colour inversion works which is great really. Thanks for all the hard work.
A Series 2017 Marshmallow and S6/S7/S8 Nougat framework has an interesting feature of icon masking. I thought that A Series 2016 Nougat update will bring slightly reduced framework from flagships. However in A Series Nougat framework icons are left in border instead of masking
View attachment 4207957
Is it possible to implement that feature on Ax 2016 Nougat framework (especially A3 2016 Nougat)?
Custom Marshmallow ROMs (2017 Ports) successfully masks the icons. Do any custom Nougat ROMs have this feature already implemented?
I think that feature is hidden (or deleted) in "android/app/ApplicationPackageManager" class because this only file that links to masking image, but I dunno how to edit .smali code and i dunno which code I need to copy from flagships' .smali
Can you give me a link to Nougat ROMs that already have masking icons or help me bringing that feature to our framework.
Advanced seven rom already has that.. i ported it to a3 and of course it has icon masking, but the framework.jar of advanced seven has problem for a3, power menu wont appears if hold power button and phone will reboot itself, so in my ported rom im using other framework.jar which is doesnt have both power menu issue and icon masking feature. The thing is i tried using applicationmanager.smali from advanced seven but still got nothing

How about to port it from "Arrived Sapphire ROM" (Adv. Five)? A5 is more relative to A3 than A7, as I think and Sapphire has masking as I know

Of course it does, but i tried its framework in my ported rom, still has power menu issue, someone has already ported arrived sapphire anyway, it called UnderWorld rom

Is there any way to try UnderWorld framework on deodexed stock Nougat? I just know that is not simply "adb copy framework to system", need more files and something else, but I want to try it.
Also I try to import ApplicationPackageManager.smali to stock framework to see.
UPD: I've copied all of UnderWorld's ApplicatonPackageManager$****.smali files, but icons still not masking. I am still trying to find a way to unify icons (csc/appresource is not working on Nougat)
UPD2: I found that .smalis in Underworld almost same except for ".line vXX" strings before every method in stock framework
UPD3: Copying .smalis from Sapphire crashed my installation again, I have dropped my idea and got upset, now I am just waiting for man that can port S8 framework to A3 2016 that already ported to A5 and A7
P.S.: I have already bootlooped my phone by simply copying framework.jar and -res.apk via adb. I got bootloop and after I returned my stock files I got "Unfortunately stopped" and black screen (but reboot menu still works). Wipe data helped me, but I hate that long restoring data procedure

I see that advanced three has been updated and I see on screenshots that icon masking has been implemented. How did you get this? How to port it to stock rom?
Using DiffMerge I compared both of frameworks - stock deodexed and advanced three 3.5 and I see that ApplicationPackageManager has much more differences than others (other classes just adding multiwindow feature). I found that PackageIconHelper used to draw custom Play Store icon and ApplicationPackageManager used to mask icons. I cannot just copy that class from adv to stock because class could link to resources that does not exist on stock
Another way - I should replace framework.jar, framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk to make this thing works. Or not?
Please help me. Maybe there is another way to implement this feature on stock ROM?
P.S.: I have another question. To install and mod deodexed system app on odexed ROM, I just replace apk and remove odex/oat file. What I need to do with FRAMEWORK, or I need fully deodexed ROM for modding framework? I just dont want to play with custom ROMs because Android Pay and I dont want to install Magisk for that
