PHONES CAN BE LIFE SAVERS. THIS DEVICE IS NOT SUITABLE AS YOUR ONLY MEANS OF COMMUNICATION AND HAS NOT BEEN TESTED TO SUPPORT EMERGENCY CALLS. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ANOTHER PHONE WITH YOU!!!

CyanogenMod/CWM is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed.

This is a rom for Wiko Stairway. Do not install on any other device than the Wiko Stairway - I have not tested it on other clones (e.g. the Canvas4 210). If you do it anyway and it works, please report here.

What works:
- SIM1 for phone calls (incoming/outgoing) and SMS, data (2g, 3g)
- SIM2 is a WIP
- Audio (microphone - now also outside phone calls, loudspeaker, headphones, OK google)
- Sensors
- Wifi (not wifi direct)
- GPS (no A-GPS yet nor EPO assist files, so the fix can take a bit)
- hw composer
- camera for taking pictures (not video)
- wifi and usb tethering
- battery usage stats (expect the usage for Display to be very unprecise)
- bluetooth
- candy crush, facebook and twitter

What doesn't work, known bugs:
- 2nd sim card 3G switch
- Dual SIM is a WIP, not has some bugs (data connection instability, etc.)
- camera for "movies" does not work
- (hw) video en/decoding not enabled
- FM radio not available
- A-GPS does not work, GPS works though but slowish
- rest of MTK specifics (what?)

- ... you tell me

Credits: many thanks go to the omnirom project as they have done lots for mt6589 already (https://gerrit.omnirom.org/#/q/topic:mt6589,n,z). Esp to xplodwild and drshadow, pawitp, dhacker29, arcee.

Installation guide:
- Install new CWM linked in this thread (for installation see in: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2440304) - if you don't have it yet, make sure you backup recovery.img
- Make a backup with CWM - you will want to go back to stock, don't blame me if you don't have a backup!!!
- copy the cm_stairway-otaXYZ.zip to the phone and flash the zip with CWM
- copy the gapps to phone and install the zip (see: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps - this is CM11)
- Wipe

Thanks to pawitp, dhacker29 for making such stuff possible (and I took some patches from pawitp from the http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2563557)

great job, looking forward to this although i have another mt6589

i cant replace my boot img in this one and expect it to boot on my device, can i?

 

[superdragonpt]

Another awesome project.
I assume this build is upstream with the lastest OMNI patches?

B.Regards

This build has his own patches.

They should be submited to gerrit (for omnirom) in some weeks.

Actually, you can but you will get bootloop

So you need a custom kernel with patch for binder.

 

[chrmhoffmann]

Hint: the kernel source is available in the op.

Is kernel source updated with android binder patch ?

 

[kashifmin]

Great work sir. Will try the same porting method on this. I have already patched binder.c
Thanks a lot

EDIT:
Is it possible port the recovery? Or I would have to compile it from cm source?

can this work without this kk recovery?

You need kernel with SELinux for recovery (or a compatible recovery which doesn't need SELinux in kernel if it exists)

 

[Abhiroxx]

Woah, Way to go dude
Good luck with bug fixing.

 

[EnerJon]

or a compatible recovery which doesn't need SELinux in kernel if it exists)

I Think TWRP v2.6.x Has SELinux Support

 

[chrmhoffmann]

Bug in CWM backup

The backup did not work with CWM and filled the disk by backing up boot forever. Please remove the backup folder that it created and update to the 0.2 version.

The other CWM for the stairway did not work. I got SELINUX errors with set_metadata_recursive and I had to compile kernel with

CONFIG_EXT4_FS_POSIX_ACL=y
CONFIG_EXT4_FS_SECURITY=y

Use the 0.2 recovery from the OP. That's supposed to work.

Chris

 

[Dr-Shadow]

I Think TWRP v2.6.x Has SELinux Support

SELinux is a kernel feature so if you repack a recovery with a non SELinux kernel capable. You get what's happening here ^-^

 

[giaur]

MTK6589 - what about other mtk devices? Lenovo A820, A830, GoClever etc all of them is on different kernels, incompatible which each other. I assume I need to repack with kernel from my device (Lenovo A820) - both recovery and rom?

Anyway, good luck, I hope we will finally get full working CM on Mediatek some day.
