Porting CM7 to LG L3 E400 - Optimus L3, L5, L7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone!
One day i was getting tired (? of using stock rom in my L3, so i decided to try other roms . I rooted my phone, installed CWM and flashed cm9 nightly, of course. but it had various bugs. a friend of mine made a stable version of cm9 with a lot of cool features and i was using it but battery just lasted 1 day! so i was considering to back to stock so then i found LGUI v2 based in stock... i installed it and loved it, it has a beautyful UI and cool features . It had a good battery life but no as good as the stock one .
So i was wondering how will be the L3 with cm7 on it... And i said to myself: why you don't port it??? and aswered to myself : yeah! why not?
Then i started searching for tutorials and guides to learn porting. i've found some and tried .
The first attempt was using the last nigthly cm9 for e400 as base and a stable cm7 for htc wildfire as port. I "ported" it and flashed it to my phone. i rebooted it from cwm adn the lg logo appeared. :fingers-crossed: . then the cyanogenmod bootanimation appeared too!!! i was happy and thinking "i did it!!!" but no. i got a bootloop and an infinite bootanimation . so i made a logcat (i have a lot of them rigth now in the whole computer )
i tried using others stables cm7 for other devices, but it always was the same. bootloop.
i tried using stock rom as base too, but that "portings" didn't pass the lg logo at boot.
i've tried different porting methods but nothing changed...
I'm starting this thread to ask for help. to help me porting cm7 and get a stable cm7 for our lg optimus l3. :cyclops:
If somebody want to help, just answer here. every contribution will be really appreciated :highfive:
I have several logcats, so if you need one just ask me for one! they are free!!! :silly:
Thanks in advance!!!

To start porting a different CM version, you first need the correct sources. I mean, if you use CM9 sources it's not going to work on a CM7 based rom
*EDIT*
Here you got a reference thread, hope it helps

How i can port ICS AOSP?

Hi everybody.
Who tell me , how port ICS AOSP rom from this http://maclaw.pl/?page_id=180 . I think AOSP will be good speed and smooth on this device. I used some guide's to ''Fastest and simples port...'' , but any don't help me port THIS ROM (stop on boot image).
I used Miroslav build - CM9.
PS. Don't post comment: ''that device is too old for ICS , check AOSP 2.3.7 bla, bla'' . Everything is possible if u want!

If we tell it to everybody that ICS & JB projects are too heavy for our device, is true. We have to understand that, I want a working ICS or JB, course I do! But we have to put our feet on the earth and see that LG Swift cannot run even 95% functional ICS or JB rom.
Sorry if I didn't help you, but the reality is that.
@up I don't need thats posts...wait for realy help.
HQ mpeg4 movie without QComm decoders it was incredible...it was.
Naaa this types of cheap and dirty ports will never do. Go check out xda-university.com great guides by devs on how to build aosp ROMs kernels etc.

[Q] LG E400 - Need information |Rooting|Installing rom.

Hello I have an Lg E400 And I am planning on rooting it, I have rooted it before but I am planning on installing CYANOGENMOD does anyone know if everything works like wifi I know they have nightly builds but they do not have any recent or stable builds
The last build was posted on 2013-05-05 08:50:12

ROMs suggestions
I installed SDMergE400 Mod by gellmaR & cRaZyByte, which was posted here by f3tus, two days ago. So far so good. It's working pretty well.
I was with AOKP E400M6 (Stable and unstable) by yayakuya for a few months, and both of them where very good and very stable, but because of a big issue with the internal storage (lack of storage) I moved to SDMergE400 Mod, which gave me 1.1GB of internal storage.
It's pretty awesome.
BTW, JellyCast-e400 3.0 by emokeizer was also considered by me because it seems that emokeizer give a great work and effort in it, and it also has the SDMergE400 Mod 1.1GB storage solution, but it seems that it includes way to many apps for me, while I prefer a clean ROM (as much as possible).
Hope I helped you a bit.

[Q] L7 - Stock Jelly Bean Root / Stable Rom Recommendations

EDIT: Used Framaroot (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2130276) and it seems to have worked fine. Think I am also happy with this stock rom. Sorry for making this post without taking enough time first.
Hi,
Just got an L7 (P700) today and been looking around at Roms but nothing really grabbed me. Installed CWM but then decided to just update to JB using the LG Support Tool.
Firstly I can't seem to find any details on rooting the JB update. Is it just the same "What you desire!" tool or can I not find it for a reason?
Secondly, I can't really find any decent recommendations for roms because the people asking are normally incomprehensible. I would like a rom that is going to be stable with everything working and will not need updating. Ideally it would be CM but any JB rom that is stable I would be interested in. Most of them seem to be in quite heavy development with frequent updates and I would feel I was missing out by not getting them.
Sorry for wasting peoples time with these simple questions and thanks for any responses.

L5 and l5ii are different smartphones with different hardware
You CANT use l5 rom on l5ii.
However this is the forum of FIRST lg geneation, for l5ii like l3ii,l9ii you must search/ask in SECOND lg generation forum...
The link that you posted is for l5 e610!!

Smoother jellybean mini project(4.1.2) everything work exceft battery charging while phone is off
Cute and updated cm11 by mr. Plamb1r(4.4.4) everything work except sometimes phone screen freeze and you need to reboot
Stabler where everything work is stock by lg, you can root it and delete some bloatware
I hate lg design(4.1.2) so i moved to cm11 v5 by plamb1r after about 1 year on an other cm11 by pecancm.
This is my experience, and these are the best roms that i found, i tested everything on this phone

Really really thanks for your answer, right now I´m trying CyanHacker ROM V 2.0 ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/optimus-l3-l5-l7/orig-development/rom-cyanhacker-rom-1-1-t2894511 ) it has a lot of features but it works really bad on my father´s phone (very very laggy and poor smoothness), also the ROM have a lot of apps that my father don´t need and when I delete it, for example greenify, the apps are back after a reboot.
I also hate LG design like my father, so I´, gonna find the ROM that you are using actually ( cm11 v5 by plamb1r) and give it a try!!!
Again thanks for all the info that you provided for me (and others )
EDIT: This is the ROM that you are using actually right? http://forum.xda-developers.com/optimus-l3-l5-l7/orig-development/unofficial-cyanogenmod-11-t2919279 and the other JB ROM that you recommend to me is this right? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2619607
uhm... For me, CM11 SBP v5 by Mr.Plamb1r is the best kitkat rom, everything PERFECT but sometime screen freezed ( i know all kitkat rom have this problem )
Jelly bean mini project is very good but it based on CM so sometime random reboot, this problem make me uncomfortable
If you want a stable and smooth rom, try SBP project from Mr. Plamb1r like AVATAR rom(4.1.2) http://forum.xda-developers.com/optimus-l3-l5-l7/development/avatar-rom-t2947042 (remember flash all the fixs )
and CM10 http://forum.xda-developers.com/optimus-l3-l5-l7/development/l5-cm10-sbp-rom-edition-t2927217
Everything work PERFECT for me and remember don't charging phone when it shutted down(AVATAR and CM10 rom, if you don't want to get a white screen and must putting out the battery )

Which is the best ROM you guys have discovered for REDMI 2 PRIME

Hello guys !
I have been a new member of XDA . (**noobie** tho ) . I own a REDMI 2 PRIME . I have flashed many roms and kernels on my device suggested by xda but until now i have not found anything i.e. any ROM that i might stick onto. I always flash a new rom and within 3-4 days seeing the battery consumption i revert back to MIUI ROM . Please suggest me with links to the ROM and kernels that i should try on and can hold on to a particular rom.
Thanks Guys !
Look....devs are tried or trying to make ROM that is suitable for us .So be greatful to them.
I am using cm 13(official) and du by dual boot and I am happy.
BTW ...u can't get everything work perfectly in anything in this world.....
In my experience if you are going for bugless you should go for stock which is pretty good and especially on prime much smoother compared to 1gb variant.
On other hand any custom ROM come with trade off,most stable ROM on r2 is DU but it won't support Jio,then there is Orion by same dev which is minimal and excellent ROM in itself ,if you are new to custom Roms then you should stick to CyanogenMod which offers AOSP looks with its own set of features and is reliable,

Reply 1 :Your review was awesome ! Will surely try this beta rom !
Reply 2 :The phone is awesome and i dont see a chance that i might be changing this phone because of its compact size and its battery life on stock rom . The wierd thing that happens is that i have seen many people say that a particular rom say CM13 official nightly build is the best stable rom for redmi 2 prime but i used it and saw a pretty lag even when the phone booted up for the first time that is no new apps installed for a day and then i would have to revert back to my stock rom !
Hehe that is what going on from all the roms i have tried . I havent tried tesla rom latest build for miui redmi 2 prime which users say is the best rom until now ! So lets see what happens next
