Is there a good tutorial on how to compile CM10 (or any CM) for an unsupported device? In particular, I have a MIONE_PLUS phone manufactured by XiaoMi, which is not officially supported by CM. I'd like to experiment with creating a CM10 port to my device.
I've synced the CM10 repo, but I'm confused about what the next step should be. In terms of proprietary binary files / configuration files, how do I know what files are necessary? And how do I compile CM10 with an existing Linux kernel grabbed from my stock ROM?
Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!
first you need to get the propietary files for MI-one (wish i dubt that miui give it to the comunity).

MI-ONE is msm8660 so he can look to similar boards like HTC sensation , Samsung galaxy s2 T989 ( Hercules) , ATT samsung Skyrocket as an example
I've seen Android (presumably honeycomb) running on notebook computers alongside windows 7 or vista basic, and now that I've freed my second partition I'd like to try either android our ubunto on it, and if JB our ICS are possible I'd love that since I love JB on the phone.
I run I3 with 4gb ram on an acer aspire.
is there any way to do this?
cheers, D

Nice one mate Trying now
As long as it is a 64 bit system It should work. Won't work on 32 bit system

There wasn't a version that was compatible with my laptop afaik , I'm fairly noob though.
I installed Ubuntu on the dual boot instead in the end as it looks potentially amazing even if simple things like wine or Skype Dont work (apparently this awesome style interface broke compatibility with many apps?)
I'd never tried Linux before so its an experience , and android is loosely based in a Linux kernel right?
Looking forward to the Ubuntu mobile os now

I already have the device, like a lot of ppl.
I have never used twrp but heard it can sometimes take a very long time to do certain things. (like 10 min to clear cache)
Can anyone who uses this tell me how well it works on the device.

I have used TWRP for over a year now and ask I can say is that it's the only recovery i will use. I have used a few on my devices.
If there are delays like you suggest that may be device related.

Not speaking for the N5 yet( mine will be here Monday ) but TWRP does almost everything faster than CWM IMO.

Just used this to successfully create a backup, seemed to work fine. Doesn't seem to detect system time correctly though (shows the date as 1970 and the wrong time even when selecting the correct time zone)
love twrp so much. Thank you

Have you tried flashing a rom or something yet? I'm a bit wary about using new versions of recoveries after things that happened on the N4 in the past..
Guys....
Dunno if it's just me, but after flashing this recovery - I lost GSM
I've just had to flash the Stock firmware from scratch to get any mobile signal back!. Hopefully just an issue with me(?)
Works perfect thanks!

I lost GSM yesterday too but that was after I unlocked the bootloader which was strange. All I had to do was a factory reset to get it back.
I have come to Expect weird things like this to happen when flashing, especially on new versions of android.

Good to know. I wasn't too alarmed - I knew I'd always be able to get it back to "OTB" state.

This is a request of moving this thread of moving this thread to the Original Android Development Section.
As stated in one of the purposes of the section, it is a section for all the work done originally or from scratch in which a official release should be.
Also as stated : " Official releases/development of such original ROMs, perhaps posted by the maintainer or their nominated person."
There is no word of recovery but official recovery builds always go to the original section.

Title says all. Comment with something under here if you have a GP 4.2. I'm making a ROM for it but, due to my network speed (slooooow), I want to know how many users will download it. Thanks in advance!
PS. If you know other users that have this Player tag their names into your reply!
I have one, but I've since replaced with with the 5 inch model. I still use it on occasion to test apps and things.
I have one, so does @SerkTheTurk @lets_zock and @ChaosChris
Sad that this is a very unsupported device (both by Samsung and developers)
No. I have not it. I leaved it to the samsung center with the latest hard brick. For now i only have a note 1 but i want to sell it to buy an iPhone 4 or a SGS 3.

I only have some questions:
1) Is it true that I need to have a 64 bit CPU? If yes, I have not, but in a VM is it possible to have it?...
2) What Linux OS is the best to get a fast compilation time? (My VM: 2Core, 1.5GB Ram, HDD USB 2.0 to host it (only used for the VM), 128GB of virtual HDD)
3) With Mint 15 64bit VirtualBox crashes on boot, is this a problem of the "64bit" version or is a problem of the small quantity of RAM?
I have it! It will be really, really, really great to have a new ROM, since we've got a few numbers of developers for this device. A CM7 or CM9 ROM, like u said u're going to try to do, would be really great for future developers and a future Jelly Bean ROM. ( Nowadays, I'm using ChaOS ROM v1 + S3 Modpack made by @ChaosChris )

1)I believe you can build CM7 with a 32 bit OS (that requires only a 32bit processor) but for CM9 onwards you need a 64 bit version of Linux (which requires a 64 bit processor)
2)You can use Ubuntu 10.04 (as recommended on the official Android developers website) for maximum compatibility and less compilation errors.
3)Yup, you cant use 64 bit OS'es on 32 bit processors, neither with VMs nor by actually installing it on another partition.

1) So for 3 or 4 years (I haven't enough money for a new pc and my parents will never buy another one only because "the cpu can work with the double number of bit in the same time" (Yes, my father were born with the "linux inside" signature, but with a 16/32bit brain))
2) Ok, I'll try
3) Damn!
4) With this post I can now post in the dev section! So when I'll fixed all bugs with current rom I will open a thread for it! Thanks!

I think you can compile cm7 with 32 bit Ubuntu because AFAIK, @SerkTheTurk has a 32 bit CPU (intel centrino) but he has compiled CM7 (though not booting ) successfully for our device...so you can try

Ah. I will try. Thanks! For now with my rom I am at the same point of 3 days ago. Bootloop, bootloop and more bootloop. I think that I will restart from 0 adding one feature every flash and then when I will have enough features and stability I will relase it.
I have it, I love it and I heavily use it everyday... I hope this device can get more support, but it's wishful thinking...

Great idea! Building a ROM in this way would be really useful to have more knowledge about what you're doing. This will help you to, if there is an error, find out exactly where it is, so you can fix it. Good thinking. Good look, maybe we finally got a sucessful CM7.
I am talking about my modded stock based rom... the cm one will wait because i need to fix some errors with the vm.

lol Got it. Will you try to develop themes for your custom ROM?
Yes. But not now. I'll make themes after I have modded all the Rom because if I mod a part of the rom i need to mod all themes so when i end the modding-time i will start with all done and the theming process will be more faster.

I can make themes for you if you want. I an currently working on a KitKat theme, and I've managed to do some statusbar mods like transparent mod, jb clock etc. I might release it for the stock XXLF1 ROM but I can do it for you too.

Hi everybody in the Nexus 6p forum!
Today I want to present you my (actually Work-in-progress) port of MIUI v7
It's based on the stock build MTC19T and the MIUI itself it was ported using this guide (which I don't know if it's right, i used 2nd e 3rd post method) from the Mi Note (not pro) cause has similar specs of our beloved device.
The rom doesn't work at the moment, and I'm still working on to make it bootable and usable. I'm asking for a little bit of help doing this, since it's my first public rom, and my first port!
ADB shows up in device manager on windows, but no device is there when I type "adb devices". So I need to start fixing that first. Also, the rom bootloops forever, ATM.
I invite any developer or non-developer to try it and help me get this adb working, so I can debug it.
You can reach me here on XDA or on hangouts at cappy95 (at) gmail.com

Download files:
Download from Mega.co.nz
Note: you need at least WinRAR 5.x or 7zip to extract this file.
Please do not mirror this rom without permission, just ask, if mega it's a problem for you.
Instructions:
Code:
0) You need a TWRP recovery installed
1) Put your Nexus to bootloader mode
2) Open a command prompt where you have your fastboot located
3) Type "fastboot flash system" without quotes and drag onto the terminal the system.img file
4) Type "fastboot flash boot" without quotes and drag onto the terminal the boot.img file
5) Reboot to recovery
6) Do a factory reset
7) Go to Mount and mount Data and System partitions
8) Flash or sideload the additional file
9) Wait forever at the bootanimation, it doesn't get past it.

It would probably be a faulty ADB setup or something similar.
Should've really went with the first method. Its a bit more difficult at first but you will end up with a more finished product. The method that you're taking will involve you having to hack together fixes.

Patchrom is only for 4.4.4 Kitkat. There's no kitkat for our device, nor will never be. That's why I had to use the third method, is the ONLY way to get MIUI on marshmallow.
I also prefer compiling over hacking things together, because you mess up things, but there's no source of MIUI whatsoever, especially for 6.x...
Wouldnt it be easier to try porting from nexus 5 rom? http://en.miui.com/extra.php?mod=rom/download&r=232&mobile=no
Or no difference whatsoever since it has different cpu?

It does use 4.4.4 KitKat.
Don't look at the version, because MIUI has 3 indipendent versioning systems, as far as I understand it.
1) The android version (which can be anything from 4.4.4 to 6.x)
2) The UI version (v6,v7,v8)
3) The rom version (6.5.12 atm writing)
All of those are indipendent, so I can have a MIUI v7 (latest) rom version 6.5.12 on android 4.4.4, 5.x or 6.x.
So yeah, it does have a different CPU and ALSO, a different android version.
So, by the first rule of porting, you CAN'T port roms with different sdk versions.
There are unfortunately no shortcuts... I searched the whole intenets to a better and different way of doing this... No luck. It could become easier once they release MIUI on 6.x on Mi Note pro, but for now, the closest device we can use to port is Mi note (Snap 801 - 32 bit processor).
Also, I tried to port also from Mi 5 (which should help, since is 820, 64 bit) but surprisingly, that didn't even made past the boot.
So yeah, I'm running out of ideas, I tried nearly EVERYTHING, last thing I can do is debug by kmesg, but it will take months to just get past that bootanimation. But I guess is the only way out...
Thanks for clarification, and sucks to hear that! Yeah appears there are no sd 808 or 810devices running miui 7 based on marshmallow, this is best shot and its a long one
Maybe this can help, mi note pro is snap 810
