I don't know much about porting and all that stuff (the only times I tried, I failed...) but if you wan't you can ask for my help. I won't have much time right now, probably for the same reason as you, but I will do my best to help you, and it could be nice to discuss stuff on our own language ;)

Just ask for anything that you need
Good luck with the port :)

Quick question: Is there any way of put stock CM9 kernel with ARMv7-a libs, bins and xbins in boot.img?? Guess libs, bins and xbins are in there too (besides the ones in /system/libs)...and this stock CM9 where can I get one that works with HTC Explorer, bacause Htc explorer don't have cm9 based rom :S

    Help needed

    I have doubts of what to do with this files I upload above. Now i'm trying with Stock rom and golf rom...the files are: build.pro, build.img, update.bin and update script,i'll update a folder with theses files from both roms! I guess this files are giving the problems because the rest of the tuturial is easy

    So, Golf ---> Explorer, can someone with experience edit theses files so the rom dont have errors in booting up??? I made arrangents as I say below, but no sucess :S

    -> build prop must have where is device and all...pico instead of golf!
    ->boot image must be of golf with bootclasspath line edited with stcoks'
    -> Update binary (can i copy paste the stocks one?)
    ->Update script: this is the trick one, i dont know much :S

    http://www.mediafire.com/?51v448c5d8hbu1z


    Advice would be good too and take action in the port too, let's talk about it in this thread, let's make it a "Explorer's Community Rom" :)

    1)‎>>>>BLUEMOD_ZIP: FOR STOCK ROM AND JAGGY ROM!<<<<<<<<


    >ZIP for install mod, and.....BIG NEWS: zip for remove mod (yes remove and back to before mode!!) :D

    >Back story: I applied the blue-mod theme (see original thread) to my phone but not manually, i tried as dicribed but still getting error in android commander so i make a zip to flash. I creat bluemod_zip based on the mod by user jinjamal in xda (great mod sir!!!)
    I sucessful created a install zip, but how to unninstall? I didn't know..I started to think and I came with a way to do it!!

    Ladies and gentelmen I present you the files:


    >>>Download (it says green but is the blue mod!)<<<<<

    >To those who have stock rom: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?6w7m9b2lrx8gs87

    >To those who have jaggy rom: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?z06ue2ur76s393e

    How to install/unninstall: zip of the folder in download (mod ou unmod) in sdcard, then just enter in recovery and "install zip from sd card"...Enjoy!! How simple is that???

    >>>>Thanks friend Prasanna Chandra, Ashish Garg, Aabhas Lall and many more that replied to me in facebook group!! And of course to the creator of the mod jinjamal of XDA)

    Friends I was in contact with some devs of XDA about the problems I was facing porting the golf rom to our explorer and after talking with some I achive this, unfortunatly, conclusion:

    We can not port cause Port rom is 4.0.3 and our explorer 2.3.5..well we can port but only with cm9 you can but you should compile a kernel and modules(vey hard work)...So as I said earlier, as we dont have ICS kernel made for ou explorer is next to impossible I think :(

    Sorry to bring bad news, but guess it's reality, and for mor work we do in updater script or boot.img (believe I've made at least 40 builds of this mother ****er!!) it wont boot :(

    I hope someone mange to fix a "workaround" for this problem or maybe someone makes cm9 for our explorer :)

    Best regards!

    dont lose hope man ;)
    i've fixed the status 0 error
    i also managed to boot up a ics rom (one for the galaxy mini its cm 9)
    but its very unstable hope it would work :need help :eek:

    Get boot.img tools from here- https://github.com/sakindia123/kernel-htc-pico

    Split both Htc Explorer and Desire C boot.img's
    Code:
    tools/mkbootfs boot | gzip > unpack/boot.img-ramdisk-new.gz
    mkdir -p target_img
    tools/mkbootimg --kernel unpack/boot.img-zImage --ramdisk unpack/boot.img-ramdisk-new.gz -o target_img/boot.img --base `cat unpack/boot.img-base`
    cp target_img/boot.img output

    COmpare bootclasspath and init scripts and take care of permissions,esp. ril and radio
