[GUIDE]How To Port Different ROMS to Your Device (Simplest and Fastest) Many people have requested me to share the method which I am using to port roms..

THIS IS THE SIMPLEST AND FASTEST WAY TO PORT ROMS!!!

This is the method which I use in porting Roms-
Things Needed- Winrar, Notepad++

This is For Same Resolution Mobiles and You can use this Method to port roms From armv6 to armv7 devices but I dont know about the method used to port roms from armv7 to armv6 devices..

Quote:
What is base Rom:
Quote:
The ROM which is Developed For your Mobile..

Quote:
What is Port Rom:
Quote:
The Rom Which you want to port to your Device.

Quote:
STEP1;
Quote:
Take any clean CM9, AOSP, CM7, CM10 ROM which is running on your device as Base ROM.

Quote:
SREP2:
Quote:
Extract it Using Winrar.

Quote:
STEP3:
Quote:
Take the ROM you want to port. This Port ROM. Extract it also using Winrar.

Quote:
STEP4:
Quote:
Delete app, Framework, Fonts and Media folder in System Folder of Base ROM.

Quote:
STEP5:
Quote:
Now copy app, Framework, Fonts and Media folder in System Folder from Port rom to base rom system folder.

Quote:
STEP6:
Quote:
Now open etc folder in both the ROMs folder.

Quote:
STEP7:
Quote:
In etc folder of base ROM open permissions folder and copy the extra permissions in Port rom to your base ROM folder.

Quote:
STEP8:
Quote:
Now open buid.prop file using Notepad++ and make changes to these of Base Rom as you wish. Quote:
ro.build.id=
ro.build.display.id=
ro.build.date=
ro.modversion=


Quote:
STEP9:
Quote:
In build.prop file change these to same as Port Rom build.prop values. Quote:
ro.config.ringtone=
ro.config.notification_sound=
ro.config.alarm_alert=


Quote:
STEP10: Quote:
If You find any extra file or folder in system folder of PORT rom than copy them to your base rom system folder.


IF YOUR BASE ROM HAS ISSUES LIKE CAMERA ISSUE THAN YOUR PORTED ROM TOO WILL HAVE ISSUES.

NOW ZIP YOUR ROM AND POST IT BUT DON'T FORGET TO GIVE CREDITS TO THE DEVELOPER OF PORT ROM..

You can't port ICS ROMS if you don't have an ICS base........

I am looking to see if i can find a source....going to some china sites to find stuff for this build. He he wish me luck..brb

I have the LG src for the Splendor, but the android patch never compiles.

I may use the kernel src to make the esteem a 3.0.x kernel after I get the basic issues I have not fixed.

"compiles as a msm7x30."

????

Umm can you use a source from the g2/desire z. It compiles with an msm7X30, has an ics cm9 source, and similar hw

(But its not going to work) it uses a v6 arm cpu

Man I feel so frustrated.
