Join forces to port CyanogenMod and TWRP Recovery - Samsung Galaxy Alpha

Hi,
I'm modpunk and some know me from porting CM9 to the Wildfire S. The Alpha will be my next phone and I plan to port CM to it. If someone is interested in collaboration, let me know.
Some of my previous work is documented here:

I thought you can just install a recovery. So that would be the first step

Can you install this?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cls.partition&hl=en
and list the partition details (as in image number 7 shown on the google play page) - in the app it's under advanced
I'm interested in what partition boot is?
I have a rom built but need the info to mount the kernel in the script

Sure thing, the list was pretty long but i I presume you only needed info about the mounted partitions?

Kernel isn't mounted - I know weird, right?
i.e for the Galaxy S4 mine is
mmcblk0p20
10.0mb
boot | xx | Not Mounted
This is the partition I'm interested in
the one that says
boot | xx | Not Mounted
at the bottom
If you could post all the pages it would help future devs
especially those who make custom recoveries

Huh, all the partitions are different on mine. Guessing because of different variants?

Finally, someone starting to get into this phone. Hopefully more Devs will get involved with creating Roms, Recoveries, etc... Hope this thread blows up too a high popularity so we could start flashing fever!!! Sucks that ATT has the exclusives on the phone. Bad choice by Samsung. Would of given the phone a better chance of being more popular if it were in other service companies. Ordered my phone today and should get it soon. Let's hope enough Devs get this phone so we can have a nice choice of Roms. Crossing my fingers!!!
Does this Root work for the ATT version???

CF Root doesn't work for AT&T devices because AT&T locks bootloaders. To be blunt, unless the Note 4 community finds an exploit that applies to the Alpha as well, we're SOL in terms of root and custom ROMs.

I've started to setup the first git repositories and imported the kernel to build the twrp recovery. I don't have the phone yet but probably will get one soon.

I downloaded the zip, but stopped there. I've never messed with a system dump before, so I didn't know what direction to move in. I don't have time to mess with it now. It's standard fare...system.img, boot.img, radio.img....etc...
I'll try and get to it tonight.
Where's the download link? I missed it.

Anyone know how to get Unyaffs working on Windows 7 64bit? I would like to extract the system.img
Thanks!
it's not yaffs, it's just a standard loop image.
in linux.
mount -o loop system.img /mnt/system (assuming of course you've made /mnt/system)

Yes, it still stands, but i found out that CM10.1 is currently impossible to make, so you can try with MIUI V5.

so how did you make the nexus rom for it?
The issue is that I do not own the phone, but I am looking at porting CM to MTK6589.
MIUI porting is a bit different, it would not involve kernel compiling per se I believe (CM either, but I would like to).
To give it a go, I would need info from here:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro
So your ROM version, partition info etc.
When I manage to port to a device I own, I can give it a go.

i compiled my first recovery based on cm 10.1 for Thl W8.
I have no easy way to push the image to the phone to test.
If it works, I can start to create a recovery for this phone based on sources.
I would need that info I requested.
Are you able to post the build.prop file and the partition dump?
Look at the page with instructions I posted earlier.
Meantime I look for an easy way to flash that recovery, somehow sp flashtool does not read the scatter file created by mtkdroidtools .
cheers
managed to flash it, but it does not work , just a black screen .
Harder than it looks.
Can't promise anything, but I'll post if I get further.
Compiling on an old C2D now, so it takes time .

So, like I requested before, please :
- post your build.prop file
- post identification stuff of the device, like screen resolution, memory and recovery.fstab (or the recovery image)
- in general take a look at the link I posted before and read it, so you know what info is needed :
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro
The reason I ask is because there are at leat 2 different versions, 1 had 960x480 screen and 1/4gb ram/rom, the other 1280x720 and 2/8.
They obviously at least have different partitions and displays and perhaps even other different hardware.
You can also post a full working ROM on dropbox or something.
thanks
P.S. for the needed tools, see here:

This is a CWM 6.0.3.3 which works on my device.
Use SP Flash Tools 3.13 something to flash.
My scatter file is attached, please compare it with yours.
Needless to say perhaps, but still: this is on your own risk.
You may damage your device if you do not know what you are doing.
Bricking it is not my fault!
So think before you act.
If you try: please give feedback if it works.
If does it is the same device: N9389 5.3", 960x480 (qHD) , 1 gb ram, 4 gb rom.
Device identifier: v89_gq2002s

Hi,
Well I am partly motivated by your offer, but I enjoy Android and Linux hacking.
Let's hope those attempts will lead to something.
How about LewaOS? There are good porting guides for that.
I will try to look for MIUI or CM in the weekend.
Initial CM would miss dual sim support.
Maybe MIUI is easier, because some work has been done.
Well, I'll see.
Don't overestimate the complexity, if you have CM 6 and made it yourself, porting a rom is doable I suppose ?
cheers

[TEST] [ROM] CM10.1 for D802?

Test ROM for the LG G2 D802 - Can someone test?
Ive tried to make CM10.1 for the D802 but I am not sure on how it would work due to me not having a G2. Can someone with the G2 test this please? I am uploading now
Please make a backup of current ROM and flash this.
Done
All testing complete. Sources will soon be available. Now the porting will commence
Thanks
No one? No wonders the D802 development wont pick up
i'm waiting on my D802 too! when is yours coming? would be sick to have some custom tweaked roms. You a kernel dev too?
Does it have to be the D802?
I have a stock D802. I haven't done this before, but can take a look.
We'll get there just need time. Im waiting the phone allso. mayby theyr relaxing its weekend after all.

I have done a factory reset, backed up just the System using TWRP and then restored a full backup. If I send you a link to the "System only" TWRP backup, will it help, and is that what you need?
If so, I'll start uploading now and I'll send you a link via PM first.
EDIT:
Just noticed that I'm software version D80210b-EUR-XX, is that OK?
Attached an image of what is backed up.
I have sent links to two devs. Lets see if we can get the ball rolling for D802.
If the devs come back and say its ok, ill put links up for anyone that wants them. I just want to make sure im not sharing anything personal first?

@chronicfathead, forget wat I said on PM. Can you do this as well. Sorry for being a pain. I will credit you for your help XD
Connect your device to PC
Go to platform-tools folders where you have installed adb.
Make a folder system in this folder.
Open Command Prompt in that folder and type
Code:
adb pull /system system
It will take some time.
If you find this too hard then do what I said on the PM
Edit - It's missing a few things actually...

Huawei Ascend Y6, do any ROMs exist?

Hello, so I've bought a Huawei Ascend Y6, and it's on its way. I didn't realize that there seems to be a lack of support for third party OS's before I've bought it. I see threads about other devices that have lots of work built around them, some of them being Huawei products, but none seem to match this exact model. I'm finding nothing either here, or through search engines.
So if nobody's written a ROM for this Huawei phone, am I out of luck and just stuck with the stock OS? I'd appreciate help very much, thanks.

Yes, I believe the phone is also just called the Huawei Y6! My model is the SCL-L04, so I could also give you some details on that if you need any, and if it would help you. Do you have any links to your work on this? I'd love to try finally installing a new OS on this phone, (though I'm not sure how to do it with this locked down bootloader).

I don't have any work ready yet and I only have the SCL-L21 libs ready to work with. Could you send me a backup of your system.img? I could work with that.

I would like to, but so far I can't find the file you mentioned. Whenever I search for it, I only get results on how to unpack it, but I can't locate it in the mtp client. Any help?

You'd have to create a TWRP backup, then they will show up in the backups folder of TWRP.

Ah okay, that makes sense. Looks like the device isn't supported, so I'll have to take a look into this guide tomorrow. Thanks!

partition table

Is there a way to get the devices full partition table without root? Also are the partition locations the same on all variants of the Reno 5g/10x zoom
Forget it. Development of oppos devices is so poor like gypsy.

Sounds like a good start.
Someone trying to do TWRP ran into some issues regarding partition:

Maybe that will help?

It would be a good start to inspect a Chinese firmware AND inspect an international firmware.
I doubt it would be encrypted...pretty sure that's illegal as Android is open-source

Decrypting the ROM is not difficult, as we already have the key for PCCM00/CPH1919.

So is there a lot to do if we wanna install custom OS ?

As @winxuser said "I have kernel source but I'll have to make a device tree.."
It will be done I'm sure as he seems determined to find a solution for custom ROM. A tall task, but anything is possible.
I came from Samsung A5 (2017) and it took a long time to get that going.

I have my Oppo bricked (flashed twrp for android 10 above android 11 beta) and moved to Samsung )
So you don't have the actual stock image for this phone if you do I'd really appreciate it if I can get it from you. And I guess I don't understand what you're saying are you telling me that I need to upgrade TWRP or you use that and that's what bricks your phone. Thank you in advance
