Super BUMP!!!

Hello again peeps, I hope you're having a wonderful weekend so far.;) The long awaited announcement is here that I have now provided a new porting guide for Samsung Galaxy roms from two of their OMAP 4 phones: the Galaxy S2 and the Galaxy Nexus. This guide is on post #3 of the OP along with notes of what to expect from these type of roms.

One other thing I should mention about them is that their vibration level is higher than Moto roms so even with their default keypad, don't have butter fingers! lol.:laugh::D
[Motorola Atrix 2] sameerm02:
Hi Ace

I tried to port one of rom from Galaxy S2 I9100G forum http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1814532

I used method 1 to do the changes and used your mirage rom as a base rom

I did the changes to build.prop & updater-script as per this post http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1908008

But when I flash the rom its bootloops (just flashed rom no gapps)

I am attaching my build.prop here, can you check and let me know if there are any mistakes/modifications req
[Motorola Atrix 2] Aceofzeroz:
Greetings sam :) I'm glad to see that you're taking greater interest in porting more and more, but when it comes to these roms, they need a tad more care.

Before anything else, just to let you know that I've actually already ported that very rom recently and it was very challenging. One thing about porting from the Samsung Galaxy phones is that you need their corresponding rom bases that are available on our A2. They won't work with just any old base and the methods I have in the OP are incomplete for all of them. For RootBox, you will need either a nonkexec AOKP or CM10.1 by alteredlikeness.

Just for the sake of helping you port it, you need to take a look at the first porting method specially for Samsung roms in post #3. It includes following the steps in method 2 and afterwards, replacing the storage_list.xml in framework-res.apk.

Firstly, you need to tell me if you have any of those 2 roms I stated before and if not, you need to get them. Let me know through a PM, then we'll continue through there. ;)

Can I port kitkat roms for Galaxy S2?
[Motorola Atrix 2] Aceofzeroz:
Unfortunately nish, no one on the A2EPT has successfully ported KK roms from any of the Galaxy phones yet. For some strange reason, they won't boot past the boot animation without suddenly resetting with using any method I've come up with thus far. :(:confused:

So the only kind of KK porting you can do for them is the method in Post #3 of this thread.

i ported jellyvanilla ex(4.2.2) from xperia arc s to xperia neo v ,

using 1st method, rom was fine bt had FC

with 2nd method, everything is perfect, but wifi is not working,

is there anything i missed?

i have ported many roms but wifi issues, first time i have encountered

Thanks and Regards
[Motorola Atrix 2] Aceofzeroz:
Hey and thanks for using my guide for your Xperia device! :) If you aren't able to get Wifi then you need to copy these additional files below to your already ported rom:

bin/wpa_cli and wpa_supplicant

etc/entire wifi folder

lib/libhardware_legacy and libwpa client

That should do it. :) It may require another reset to get it turned on properly after reflashing your fixed rom, but you should be good now. All the best and share my Method 2 with your friends interested in porting. ;)
[Motorola Atrix 2] Saatvik Shukla:
Actually. I did that too

If i am not mistaken these are in post 3 also.

But no luck wifi still not working,

Although may be i would have missed it at some point so i will try again to port.

Thanks for this super awesome guide and especially the second method, it is great ;)
[Motorola Atrix 2] Aceofzeroz:
Now that's very strange. o.O if it boots on your device then by right, Wifi should work especially if you're getting baseband, etc. There's another bold method you can try where you can use your base to replace the entire bin, etc, and most of the lib folder except libandroid runtime, libandroid server and libmedia jni.

Also, check your build.prop as well to make sure you didn't leave any lines from the original port rom that may obstruct wifi from working. Give it as much trail and error as want/need and I'm sure you'll have a breakthrough! :D

Ive ported 2 KK roms from gs2. Just need sound and they will be ready to use:D
[Motorola Atrix 2] Aceofzeroz:
Another Rom Porting UPDATE!

This is in fact true for our progress as the A2EPT so far, one day for sure we'll find a way to get all components working!:good::cool:

For now, I've updated Post #3 of the OP again with all the methods the A2EPT has found to port many varieties of roms from not only the SG OMAP4 phones, but even a few from the Motorola Defy and the SG i9003. :D

A major thing about these non-Moto roms is that you NEED to use similar roms from the same source or the source rom itself (e.g. Slim, CM, AOKP, PA, etc.). Read the OPs of their roms carefully to see which rom is their main base!

[Motorola Atrix 2] aldiandrew:
hi any update to port rom from galaxy nexus? i tried the method but still stuck on bootanimation, are the problem from resolution different between 2 phone? hope will made tutorial with image, thx sir
[Motorola Atrix 2] Aceofzeroz:
Hey aldi, if you're speaking about galaxy nexus KK roms, then I still don't have a guaranteed way of porting them since the KK file structure has been getting more complex lately.:rolleyes: The resolution isn't stopping us from porting them or any compatible phone from what I've tested, but other factors seem to make getting them to fully work difficult. :/

My only suggestion for now is to use SGPM1 to test if you can boot the rom, though you'll be unable to actually use it without audio, etc.
[Motorola Atrix 2] aldiandrew:
thx for the quick reply sir :) yes i try on galaxy nexus KK rom and still unlucky, wanna ask another question, can you made a tutorial to made a pure AOSP rom with base from any kitkat rom? example : base from cm 11 or Slimkat but without additional setting like themes,systemui mod etc etc just like pure google nexus KK rom with modding the apk? i think it will fun to learn, so omap 4 have a pure KK :) (just think about that) sorry if i am ask too many sir :) thx
[Motorola Atrix 2] Aceofzeroz:
Well, I can't really write a guide on that as I've never ported pure android roms before, only slightly modified ones like Nexus Experience. I personally usually aim for feature-filled hybrid roms anyway, since I find plain stock AOSP uninteresting so it would be something that you'd have to try on your own aidi, sorry. Good luck if you do try it and possibly one of my guide's methods can help you out.:highfive::)
[Motorola Atrix 2] dtrail1:
Maybe this helps: All our roms are based on CM (Slim, PA, Aviator, Avatar, etc, etc). If you look at the devs Github pages and check manifests for source links you'll find tghat erach rom uses the main CM parts, like device tree, kernel, proprietaries, etc. In fact (at least for me) porting roms is easier with sources directly. In the best case you just can use "mixed" source links to get your ported roms manifest. That means you use the roms modified Android framework sources on top of CM device parts.

Sometimes they need to be modified a little.

But in most or many cases you will have to use a clean CM source, then cherry-pick changes from the rom's devs into your CM Android framework (base).
[Motorola Atrix 2] Aceofzeroz:
Very useful info there dtrail :D I'll have to take note of this for the day I finally get a chance to build my own rom ports. Thank you kindly! :cool:;)

A Video Tutorial has Arrived!!!

It's finally here aldi, I updated the OP with the video covering both MPM 1 and 2. This should clear up all the confusion, but I can't guarantee it WILL work depending on your device, but I hope it helps everyone!:)

Heya fantasy, it seems like my guide has been helping you, which is great to see :). Porting can get funky like that at times, one time you think you did everything perfectly, then boom, surprise!:laugh:xD Honestly, but it's fun stuff and educational for persons who want to get to really know android more.

Personally, I find this more fun to do than building roms because you're actually able to do it in much less time (after a while) and you only have to put up with bootloops or FCs, while a built rom could possibly not boot at all after all that damn waiting!:silly::eek:
[Motorola Atrix 2] Uzayr:
haha i get what your trying to say,

after all that porting we did get to know what each lib...files did and their functions..

but it can get really hard at times...when these guys get stubborn.. :silly:

Port from atrix 2 to razr

Hey ace I had an atrix 2 but it was stolen :( and i couldn't get another one so i went for the next closest thing which is the razr (gsm). I really loved the roms here and it has more variety than the razr's.

I just want to know if you need to do anything special to port the kk roms form edison the the razr other than the given steps and changing the storage_list.xml

Thanks :)

Thanks for the awesome guide :D :D :D
[Motorola Atrix 2] Uzayr:
okay...hmm..

did you completely replace the kernel files?

system/etc/kexec.

modules folder.

and replaced your baseband files?

one thing i would suggest is try flashing the lastest version available of jbx for your phone and check if there are still drops.
[Motorola Atrix 2] davidjumani:
It seems its a problem from the base rom. The cellbroadcastreceiver.apk causes the problem. I deleted it and now its stable. Thanks :D :D
[Motorola Atrix 2] Aceofzeroz:
Well done David, you're probably the second person I'm aware of who has attempted porting from the A2 to the Razr.:D I'm sorry to hear about your original A2:( but you've successfully turned those life lemons into lemonade with your efforts.:):cool:

I honestly have no idea if anything additional is needed for porting from the A2, so you've proven its possibilities.;)

Can i port a 4.4.4 rom using 4.4.2 as the base if the devices are very similar????

And do you have any idea how to port a rom form gsm to cdma phone???
[Motorola Atrix 2] Uzayr:
I'm not sure about using different versions for base and port, as i always stick to the same version when i port.

gsm to cdma...i think there are specific files and the few build.prop adjustments should do the trick.

you could compare spyder and umts_spyder roms with winmerge and note down the differences.
[Motorola Atrix 2] davidjumani:
I'll do that but do you have any specific suggestions???
[Motorola Atrix 2] Aceofzeroz:
If you want specifics, then for your first question it's better (and less painstaking) to stick with the same versions for everything you port.:)

It was nice when I found out back then that converting from CDMA to GSM was simply by replacing all the ril and other baseband files (eg. apnsconfig.xlm) I've listed in my guide. In the build prop, the safest thing to ensure full GSM conversion was replacing all the lines in the middle from where it says system prop down to additional build properties, ensuring all the lines with ril and phone type are replaced.;)

That should do it, and give my video a watch for exactly what I mean.:cool:

[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] RockinRita:
So i did something stupid right after rooting my Relay. I deleted basic stock files that are necessary for the phone to function properly. I was able to copy them from my current phone (rooted T-Mobile G2/Desire Z) onto an SD card and in turn push them back onto my Relay. My problem is that I still get error messages constantly after boot up and the simplest tasks can take hours (not to mention I can't use phone, contacts, messaging). I have seen all over the web (and XDA) about unrooting the phone and retuning it to stock. I was thinking that I could unroot, then reroot my Relay and that will solve my problem.

I was all set to unroot when I encountered yet another issue. Samsung-updates.com and sammobile both direct you to download the firmware files from hotfile. Hotfile has been shut down due to copyright infringement. Where I can find the stock firmware files now that hotfile has been shut down?

Please help me as I anxiously await using my new phone without the extra bloatware!

Thank you,

Would Samsung's Kies software be able to restore it to stock, or is it too far gone for Kies to work?
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] RockinRita:
Without the stock files wouldn't Kies be pointless?
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Magamo:
The easiest way I've found to completely revert to stock, is to get a CWM flashable version of the unmodified stock rom (From the straight system image, not an update.zip reformated image) and a CWM flashable version of the stock recovery. Flash those in. If you want to reset your flash counter, make certain to also flash a su binary of some form (I personally prefer SuperSU, since it's so easy to clear out, run triangle away, then uninstall your su app properly.

[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] RockinRita:
I copied the files from my rooted HTC Desire Z/ T-Mobile G2 to a spare SD card I have and then I inserted that card into my Relay and started it up. It took me a few hours to get passed all the error messages that constantly pop up. And then I went into my files, external SD and moved the files over to the system folder on the Relay. After several reboots, the error messages still are coming up which I why I need to unroot it and reroot it.

You may have just saved me, Magamo! Thank you for saving them to Drive! Once I get on my old slow Dell laptop (i'm on my Chromebook now- which unfortunately doesn't support most things) I'll try to flash your files and update you here since I cannot comment on your post as I have not posted enough myself.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] furboom1240:
Stock ROM Restore Method I Used

You could also use Odin to flash a md5 sum of T699UVBMC5_HOME using the download mode of the Relay. Place in PDA, and tick off the Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time and hit start. Make sure you have the drivers required to do this. I think they're included with Kies. In my case, I used CWM to format /system, then I used download mode. However, I had to reset my device. AND CWM (plus root access) was erased after the stock restore. I didn't miss an important detail, did I?:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Magamo:
I'll be honest, you've got me on this one. I've never used ODIN, and am not well versed in its use. But yes, this is sounds like a more technical way of doing it without the CWM flashables I've mentioned. -- Impossible in some situations. For example, my fiancee's phone's USB port has died for all purposes other than charging, So if I'm to send it in for a warranty repair, I'll have to use the method I posted.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] RockinRita:
Confused here

Magamo,

I'm sorry, but I'm still totally confused here. Not sure how to flash the files in. I downloaded Kies and both of the zip files from your post. Successfully updated the firmware and my error messages are gone, but I don't have CWM on it. I extracted your files, but now what? I'm not very technologically inclined so this is all Greek to me.

furboom,

What is T699UVBMC5_HOME? How do I get the md5 sum of it? How do I use CWM to format /system? How do I get to stock restore? Again, I'm sorry for asking so many questions, i just have no clue what I'm doing here.

Thanks,

Rockin Rita
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] Magamo:
If you don't have CWM, or some other custom recovery running on this, how did you get root in the first place? The easiest way to get root is to use heimdall or ODIN to flash CWM or another custom recovery, then flash Superuser or SuperSU using your new custom recovery.

The .zip files I linked are only meant to be flashed through recovery. Not Kies, not ODIN, not any other method.
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] RockinRita:
Got it!!

With the help of this site (http://www.celldekho.com/how-to-unroot-samsung-galaxy-s-relay-4g/) and the file it linked to on rapidshare, along with your tip Magamo, I was able to unroot my Relay successfully. I'll reroot it later when I have the time and make sure not to delete important files LOL Thanks so much for the help! :D

Hi everyone. I completely apologize for this question as I am absolutely new to Android and to unlocking a phone. I just bought a R800x Verizon Xperia Play for the sole purpose of being able to play emulators. I will not be activating it to use as a phone. I have read as much as I can and am still a little confused in regards to being able to unlock the bootloader and install roms.

If the bootloader message says No, am I not able to unlock it or install roms at all?

If it says yes, can I install any rom, or am I limited to what I saw as Cola and a few others?
