Firefox OS for Huawei u8160: is it possible ? - Firefox OS General

Hello guys ! i was looking for a port of firefox OS on my old device(huawei u8160/Vodafone 858 smart). We 're talking of an old low-end phone, whit a 600 MHz armv6 processor(i think the same chipset of HTC magic and similar) and about 250mb of RAM. Could the hardware be enough for a porting ?? What do you think ?? :what:

I think the problem will be the architecture. The project for the Galaxy Gio failed because of the architecture (ARMv6).

[Q] Porting Roms to I9500?

Hey guys, this is kind of a silly question knowing that the two devices (i9500 and i9505) have different processors and graphic cards but is it even possible to port the i9505 custom roms to the i9500?
Developer Question: How hard would it be if possible to port it and how hard would it be to make the rom compatible for both devices?
Thanks in Advance
Stay Cool:d

i guess its possible
compatibility might not be a big issue cause u r just going to port apps,media frameworks and lib files
But u can only port ofiicial 4.2.2 based roms of i9505 to i9500
Which guide r u referring to while porting?

I would say it's nearly impossible, as i9500 and i9505 had different processors, camera sensor, GPU etc. Talking about processors, the Exynos 5 Octa and Snapdragon 600 is a big difference. Those ROM files like lib.so and framework files had already built in for their hardware.
However, I remebered that someone wants to port HTC One ROM to Galaxy S3 International version (Exynos 4 Quad), it worked. But with lots of lots of bugs including lags. When he gaveup he finally stated that it's hard to port ROMs on different hardwares.
Hope this helps

BBM is already available on Android and has been for a few months
It requires android 4 or above AND your phone must be armv7
Galaxy y is armv6
The app cannot be ported as the libs used are for armv7
The only people with the source codes to make an armv6 version is Blackberry
Please stop spamming xda with requests for bbm for galaxy y and go contact Blackberry instead

no as some require you to have an armv7 processor - galaxy y is armv6 therefore only apps that are armv6 compatible will be able to be installed

What do you people think, will we ever have Android L on Galaxy Y?

Very possible now when we are a part of Androidarmv6 development
Since it runs on ART which as far as I know isnt support by the armv6 architecture the answer will be no

[request] lollipop rom for samsung galaxy core 2 sm-g355h

Please any dev try to make custom rom Base on lollipop for this low end device There is no such custom rom even it can handle lollipop smoothly but it's ignore by many dev as its flag as low end Samsung device please anyone try to build a Ron for core 2 sm-g355h thanx in advance [emoji20] [emoji17] [emoji53] [emoji52] [emoji55]
Sent from my SM-G355H
I join this request. Currently I own a SM-G355M. It seems that we have to wait until Samsung delivers the lollipop update.
Still No Lollipop !!!!!
Android 6.0 is gonna come out
but still no lollipop for our poor SM-G355H/M(Samsung Galaxy Core 2)
Feeling So Sad
I have some porting knowledge and im ready to sacrifice my device for it, is there a phone that is close to the g355h hardware-wise?

Quite good.. defenitely going to try porting the 5.1 from the Core Prime.. my first guess that we'll run into Camera issues since they have different cameras, we might need compatible G355H (or similar) camera lib for 5.1 if the older libs will run into compatibility issues.

Ok I will search and see if I find one
I didn't found any Android device with L ROM/Firmware with the exact same Camera specs as the GC2. One question: The Moto E (1st Gen) has the same Camera specs but he hasn't Front Camera... Is it possible to use the lib from this device and make front camera work? [emoji4]

Well, i've looked through some forums and i found this..
As per samsungs database core 2 (SM-G355H) & Core prime (SM-G360H) have common camera.

so i think we're good, will be easy to port.
Update: Well... i've done some more researching and it seems like only the G360F is getting the Android 5 update and the device specifications differ..
G355H: http://www.devicespecifications.com/en/model/c7bd2c38
G360H: http://www.devicespecifications.com/en/model/9ea92fe9 (No difference from G355H)
G360F: http://www.devicespecifications.com/en/model/18f33232 (Differs from both G355H and G360H)

I saw this and i dont know if Samsung will really release that phone ( 4 Month old post and its not better than the normal prime )

Pretty good catch there mate!
I've poked around in google and found the firmwares: http://samsung-firmware.org/model/SM-G531H/
Will definitely mess around with it asap.
Update: Oh i just checked the specifications of that model and it seems that the G531H isn't the Grand Prime VE.. emm.. hopefully we'll see that model out..
Update 2: It's confusing.. i can't find some solid info anywhere..
Update 3: Okay.. found something useful and it seems that the SM-G531H is the correct model that contains the same SoC as the G355H.. so we're good.

Sorry but hardly. G531 has 8 GB of internal storage(system reserved aprox. 1.6 GB because system image for G531 is larger than 1.4 GB ) and our G355 4 GB (system reserved aprox. 1.1 GB) so I don't see that fit.

well, porting already working rom from one device to another is one thing. But what rom (device) would you use?? No one build cm-11.0 for any device similar to ours. I have been searching a lot...
Building from source is totally different thing. A lot of time time to find needed proprietary files, setting up device tree, patching if needed and than building with no errors. And finale is it rom bootable or not.
I build cm-11 rom for g355hn but all I got is cm boot logo and 50-60 lines of logcat where I could seen successful loading wifi modules, loading MALI libs and some display drivers and than boom. Logcat stop and I'm in boot loop where I can't see anything else what cause phone from booting.
So if anyone can help my sources are right here:
