Hello guys I am a rom porter. I want to work with any Developer/Modder/Porter/Themer as a team to make more and more roms for Galaxy Y / Galaxy Ace s5830i / LG P500 / Galaxy Mini. We can easily port roms between these devices without any general bug. If we would work as a team we would get more motivation and knowledge from each other. So, we would discuss about such things like any rom to port or solving bugs. I request people to tag such members who can help us. Let's start PORTING now

We would use only this thread for common discussion.

As for now cm9 is buggy. We would try only cm7 and cm11 roms. A developer is also building cm10.1 for Ace s5830i. So, in future we would get more options.

I tried to port roms from Armv7 devices and rom booted up successfully like PacMan Rom Crdroid cm11 Pagerui with every feature working but only problem is this - Browser crash and every single app which uses internet crashes too. Only Whatsapp was working

It occurs because I am porting from armv7 to armv6. It's obviously a webview issue. And am little closed to it as I realize that it's a issue relating to framework., I tried to baksmali framework.jar file then founded a webkit folder which includes some different smali files than of my base rom. My base rom as of an armv6 device has classic webview but port rom of armv7 device has experimental chromiuim webveiw. I can port and give a good featureful experience to many device users if this bug could be solved as it is not only causing native Browser to be crashed but affecting Play Store too, It's not allowing to add a google account as it crashes showing Google Account Manager has crashed. Some help regarding this issue is really appreciated.

Well nice to see that someone is trying to make our galaxy y alive. Well i can help but in limited range.
I think developing a ROM from source is much better than porting


For which device you have ported pac rom.
If Galaxy Y than give me LINK

Bro don't mind but I would like to tell I want to make a porting team i.e we will work in unity I need help I would post here and if you or someone need help then they are supposed to do same. See it would work great if we all work together with all our knowledge basically I want everyone's initiative in it, not only to help me but to build/port rom and make stable/bugless yourself too.

Okay I have tried from three devices with each device every feature was working except I mentioned above. I tried from Xperia Mini ( smultron ), Htc Explorer and Galaxy W. I found Htc Explorer's most suitable for performance. Here's the link of rom on xda - http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-explorer/development/rom-pac-rom-kk-rc-3-t3190572

And I have tried Build 2 - here's downloading link for that - https://basketbuild.com/filedl/devs...o-UNOFF/pac-pico-4.4.4-UNOFFICIAL-BUILD_2.zip

While developing Cyanogenmod 12 Rom from source i come to know that there is a lib
libwebviewchromium
inside the webview apk and. It only for armv7 devices so i don't think so it is possible to use this lib for armv6 devices...........

But wait for a while . I have cm12 experimental zip for totoro (jenkins build which was not successful) i will try to find if androidarmv6 has made this lib for us......

cm11 which we are commonly using already has classic webview but the roms that i am trying to port have chromium webview as they are of armv7 devices. So, we just need a way to remove chromium webview and integrate classic webview in those roms.

Practically it is not possible even androidarmv6 team can't do this. I think there are some limitations for all the developers.

To do this you have to modify the android huge source code .

Yeah, I saw that but I had a confusion that when I port cm11 using gingerbread parts will it work? Besides you can Google "dzb cm11 y duos" and there you can find an almost bugless rom but the hw, visual artifacts and the lag was making me go mad. I wonder if you guys can do anything. It would be a great help since I know nothing about programming. And thanks(I clicked thanks).
