[REPO][DEV] CyanogenMod 12 for GALAXY Grand Prime

[Nonta72]

</> Developpers Only </>
As you may know it, GALAXY Grand Prime is powered by a 64Bit Entry-Level Quad Core CPU, that makes developpment on this device VERY HARD It's like Intel Atom Processors
Anyway, I tried to make a repo for building TWRP GALAXY Grand Prime by refering to Huawei G620S' Repo by GitHub member "EloYGomeZ" BIG thanks to him.
If you're interested in building TWRP, you can use this repo. Feel free to use it, but please remember to give credits when done.
The Repo isn't yet done, it may contains many bugs and errors; plus I can't test it or test a TWRP build since I don't have my hand on that device (should have one in 2 weeks).
Update as of 18/6/2015: TWRP has been compiled for Grand Prime

Wow great,
IMO, its not about 64bit chipset, as we know, lenovo a6000/k30 have the same chipset 64bit.

But have development, we have CWM, Phillz recovery, cm11, MIUI rom

The main problem to devevelop grand prime is qualcomm secure bootloader that protect the device. We need to disable the secure bootloader first. CMIIW

I didn't see Lenovo a6000 CWM/TWRP and Custom ROMs yet.
About Bootloader on Grand Prime, I never heard about this
Maybe we should start unlocking this 1st
I can't do anything as of now, since I don't have the decice yet.

If you think you can be tester and don't care about flashing your phone at least twice a day, then you can help!

 

[nilimahona]

What's the problem with the BoardConfig ?
PS: I also don't own the device yet.
The board config should be in KK Kernel source.

I'll test extensively I have 8 sm-g530az (cricket USA)
All rooted with cwm philz recovery

The device already have CWM.
All you need now is CyanogenMod.

[recoman]

The you can building kernel from source code boeffla working with grand prime ... kernel boeffla is 1 of the famous kernel. if you are building is too good. I very much hope into you. Thx you

Can you share your update-binary?

I don't think Lord Boeffla does support the Grand Prime.

Can you share your update-binary?

I'd love to, but I don't have the device yet. That's why I even stopped the project.

Suggestion: try to find a similar device (same chipset) that have CM or a CWM ROM, download that ROM and replace your binary with the one in that ROM. I heard the Huawei G620S (with MSM8916) have a working CyanogenMod, you may want to check that out.

Suggestion 2: make sure your updater-script is well formed, I can help you with that if needed, just upload that file.
