Porting Guides?

[NeoMustain]

Could someone put up a skeleton of a porting guide so we could try to port MIUI to our devices which might not be having MIUI ports? Would be wonderful to have rough guidelines. Or even complete ones

Do that with your device's files instead of epic.

Nice little guide. Actually helped me out with some things as well regarding CDMA and GSM.

Thanks

Can anyone help me with this logcat? Never had any problem before, only now with 2.3.9.

libandroid_runtime.so appears to be something to look at.. at first glance anyway!

 

[dekkyy]

No it's not libandroid_runtime.so. If i keep that file from my base, the phone stucks at bootloop. But if i copy that file from MIUI ICS, the phone doesn't even come to bootanimation.

there's a library / permissions issue from looking it over.

Wich one?

That's the question.... not sure at first glance but it looks like an issue with the loading of the libs or the wrong libs being found? Don't know how much that helps

 

[dekkyy]

Thanks! Need to try few more things.

You could go to mi-code.net and download the PatchROM guide, its still in Chinese but you can translate it loosely with google translate.

I am working on an English guide at the moment but there is a A LOT to write and i dont get a lot of spare time to look at it.

Thanks,

Mark

Can you send me that file in chinese, or give me a link? I will try to translate.

Mark is pretty far into translating, but I guess you could give it a shot as well.

[dekkyy]

ramdisk / framework.

off hand i dont know, i dont know your device and dont have it to test anything here which makes it hard. You'd need to ask other porters for your device.

Looking at the guide, one thing I notice is the android-runtime.so don't replace this. You won't get a boot.

OK. I managed to boot 2.3.9 and have few issues. Superuser doesn't work. I added liblbesec.so, libloader.so, libnativecache.so, libservice.so and add 0755 permissions. Is anything else needed in that version?

Try the standard Superuser.apk and see if that is working first of all.

What do you mean by not working? Is it force closing when requesting? If so go into permissions and go to apps then choose the app and give root permission that way. It should work then.
