Hi.
Sorry if my thread seems noobish, but I'm not really proficient in making roms, programming, coding etc.
But how difficult is it to port a 4.4 rom to a 4.2 base?
I have an Ulephone P6 (mtk 6582, 720x1280, 1/8 Gb) and it runs a 4.2 stock. Since not so long ago there appeared a 4.4 update rom for Lenovo s930 which is almost simmilar to my phone except some slight features, and it has the same kernel in both 4.2 and 4.4 roms - it is a 3.4.5 kernel. My phone has a 3.4.5 kernel and pretty close specs, so I'm wondering if I could make a port rom from lenovo's without any specific troubles - I mean assembling/deassembling and so on?
Can anyone give some pro-advice or point to a descent tutorial? I have already read some threads about making ports, but still it is not clear if I can just use the simple "copy-paste" method or is there a deep hell of work and it is not so easy?
Thanks.
Hi, i have purchased an MXIII-G with lollipop but i want to try custom roms, but all the roms are for 802, why no custom roms for 812?
I need support for the webcam logitech c270 on skype because is not full compatible with the stock rom and I have read about that webcam is fully compatible with some android sticks and tv box with custom kernels and roms.
The other question is if the roms of m8s or other amlogic s812 tv box are compatible among them or i can brik my device?
Thanks and sorry for my english.

some other ROMs are compatible - most S812 devices based on Netxeon boards will work. I think there is a Finless ROM plus others built by the community at freaktab.
I have both S812 and S802 devices and use the S812 ROMs on all of them.
No advantage with lolipop on these, the later KitKat roms seem to be better.

My device comes with lollipop and some apps like skype don't work very well with my webcam and i have downgraded to 4.4.2, and some people says about lollipop isn't the best rom for tv boxes.
All i need is lean back launcher on my box

Any recommendations? I have been using ROMs on my phones for ages, but fairly new to these boxes. I have 3 MXIII G and am happy to go to Kitkat. Looking at Freaktab, I am struggling to be sure which ones I can even try.
Thanks

@javiko_bcn - You are in luck! @ABDUL-pt over at Freaktab has created a custom Rom for the Minix X8H-PLUS, which is indeed running S812! This Rom is very stable, light, is prerooted, and includes TWRP. Cheers

Error Retrieving Box. Message: E: footer is wrong E: signature verification failed
I've been with Box bricked for some time. I have tried several roms but none works, however in every attempt when installing a new rom the message "E: footer is wrong E: signature verification failed" appears.
Can anybody help me?. How do I get this signature check when installing a new rom ?. It looks like there's a script for this. I do not believe that to solve the problem I have to spend several hours trying different roms.
Follow the box PCB: M8S AP6330 CS 812M8 v1.3 20150921.
Thanks for the help.

Hello,
In order to create a ROM for my p201 old box (T95M 2G 4K), it would be nice to have some roms from Android 7.1 & more compatible with that chipset.
Can you give a hand ?
Thanks in advance for your help
