PLEASE DONT FORGET TO HELP OTHERS AS I AM TRYING FOR YOU


lots of people ask... how do you port roms... so here you go... I hope now the thread is started the people posting can help each other as I have other projects working on... Maybe someone learning will help me later with my other roms

lot of chatter of people saying that the structure of my rom is from other x10 so for you all to see I give you basic instructions (that I ported and posted first with almost everything working) so here is all the basics on getting a bootable miui rom for beginners..  first download the formels newest release.
then download a stable gingerbread 2.3.3 version that is compatible with the files. ( I always use the great z and j for sources).  

the next step is to get the formels rom ready by deleting the boot image and the data folder.  Next step is to go to the etc folder and delete firmware folder... also delete ap2sd init script from the init folder)  

then go to lib folder and delete hw and modules.

now it is time to add files.  I know the miui files pretty good now so the list has shortened greatly.

now use your stable gb rom source to replace the folders I had you delet above

you may have to change other files depending on the rom i.e. bluetooth/dhcpd and others.

to start in the etc folder you need to add
apns-conf
dbus
dualmic
gps
hosts
hw-config
init.bt
init.gold
init.local
mediaprofiles
mke2fs
profile
resolve
sensors
sysctl
vold

now to the lib folder all files start with lib
cm
dll
dsm
dss
gsl
miscta
oem-rapi
pbmilb
qmi
diag
mmgsdilib
nv
onrpc
queue
ril-qc-1
wms
auth
sdi-exp
wmsts
mmipl
oemcamera
mmjpeg

there are other files but I think that is enough to get bootscreen... if not let me know and I will list the other misc ones.

now the bin files
akmd2
am
bmgr
bmiloader
chargemon
charger
compache
eeprom
fixpermisions
gdbserver
handlecompache
hciqcomminit
ime
input
monkey
pm
port-bridge
qmuxd
recevent
svc
sysinit
updatemiscta
wlanmac
wlantool
wmiconfig

here is the update script you will need to use in meta folder

you use a kitchen to convert the updater script and change it to our rom.
I had to add recovery perm... I forget the other stuff but the beggining is usually edify so you have to change yaffs lines to compatible lines.
for those without a kitchen below is the script... make sure you delet updater and update binary from folder and replace with update-script

[rdannar]

also change the lib egl folder change all of them except for gles android.so

next you have to change the build script. you can get by with using cm7 build script but should adapt the original to fit


ps don't forget to add ramdisk, kernel folder, recovery folder to system

and don't forget to use the correct chargemon file for the bin folder... I would recomend using the one with working kernel for beginners.

rdannar, on Jun 18 2011, 22:08, said:

now to the lib folder all files start with lib
cm
dll
dsm
dss
gsl
miscta
oem-rapi
pbmilb
qmi
diag
mmgsdilib
nv
onrpc
queue
ril-qc-1
wms
auth
sdi-exp
wmsts
mmipl
oemcamera
mmjpeg

there are other files but I think that is enough to get bootscreen... if not let me know and I will list the other misc ones.

now the bin files
akmd2
am
bmgr
bmiloader
chargemon
charger
compache
eeprom

hciqcomminit
ime
input
monkey
pm
port-bridge
qmuxd
recevent
svc
sysinit
updatemiscta
wlanmac
wlantool
wmiconfig

This is enough for booting; This method you use doesnt involve compiling but this is where everyone starts i guess.

This is what you need.

lib
---------
libgsl.so
lib/hw/*.so


bin:
---------
chargemon
charger
port-bridge
ramdisk.tar
xrecovery.tar
sh (not always NEEDED)

edit:
vold.fstab for sdcard..

Last time I used this method was with Froyo 1.0 half february... lol But this should be enough. I have zip files for almost every rom out there so in that time i ported a rom with a batch file in 10sec.

Every port is different but this is a guide to get you going on the right direction.

Last time I used this method was with Froyo 1.0 half february... lol But this should be enough. I have zip files for almost every rom out there so in that time i ported a rom with a batch file in 10sec.

Thanks for the input trip.  Froyo is easier in my opinion than gingerbread.  You will.have to smali jar files and edit them to get more stability.  

I also have huge library of roms.  Have ported a lot of them also.  I don't claim to be a big developer.  But a majority of my ports are put together and edited by me.  Not huge coding changes but enough to make things work.  I wish some one helped me wit a post like this thread last year so I made this for others.  Also shows u how I ported miui gingerbread.  And should show you I know how to make a build prop.  If I used a line of a file or mixed a file it shoes how many files you have to work with so my bad if I mess up a file or accidentally use a wrong build prop.

Lets consider it as not happened then.

The problem that occurs often is that files that are being used by (D)VM appear to;
A - incompatible with xperia
B - incompatible with port (JIT etc)
C - incompatible with each other

Also when you want a somewhat good running port the following is important, please know that;
- libskiagl.so needs to match phone
- libskia.so needs to match rom
- libsurfaceflinger.so needs to match rom
- libsurfaceflinger_client.so needs to match phone (fixes camera issues)
- libm.so needs to match rom
- libstagefright*.so needs to match phone
- libmedia / libmedia_jni.so needs to match rom
- libc.so needs to match rom
- libwebcore.so needs to match framework and sometimes libssl.so
- libdvm.so + relations needs to match each other and rom (most of time)

Well I basicly know all files in my head so I can type till morning but its to much. lol

Fantastic information, thank you very much. For enthusiasts this is  a gold mine.

Unfortunately this is also a pathetic display of immaturity, from both of you!

Your talent is overshadowed by this incredible "feud". I will absolutely not get into "rights" and "wrongs", I just love playing with my x10 and will not comment on merits.

PLEASE
Love not War

If something good comes out of it

Such as a thread like this.

Then I am pleased...

This isn't new information from me... just reposting this thread from different forum

i hate you guys but I LOVE YOU guys .. *HUGZ* not gay :| sheesh

Oh this is awesome. Good to see the devs working together to bring this to the masses.

Quick question:
So does this mean the basis for building a ROM is just moving around files and then going in and making tweaks here and there to the code?

I know this an over simplified explanation, but thats kinda what I was going for lol

Only if you have stable files.  I mainly use Js and z files
  If you don't have files you have to do much more.  Its a little different editing jar files.and with 2.3.4 not all files back smali right so you have to edit 2.3.3 files to work with 2.3.4 files

I'm slowly learning code as I keep working on roms

Thanks for the guide, I'll pin this topic so it does not get lost.

Might want to change the title to say MIUI isntead of miii

[maverickmanny]

finally good to see the 2 (T & R) making out   making peace after all these days.  
Nice work everyone.

Thanks R for a good writeup.

and thanks for clarifying my doubt i was under the impression that all ROM DEv's are highly skilled in terms of JAVA and C.

however by the quick look at your method it looks like i can also give it a try.

Note : no disrespect to any developer. just a self confidence boster statement above.

any plans on writing a guide to mix match the two gaints CM and MIUI. also would love to see which file is what.

[yesterday]

Great tutorial, Will give it a try

That statement definately wasnt a disrespect to any dev (speak for myself of course).
About the question about mixing cm and miui that will be another question cause in that case youll need much more knowlage to do that;)

Cheers my old IMBER:)

I use notepad ++ to create/edit update-script. But I only use cwm scripts since we have dualrec in doomkernel. In the future I think we should forget xrec (of course we don't forget what z has done with it for us) and use only cwm, cause it's much more powerful than xrec.
