It is indeed gingerbread.

Great news! My cygwin setup waiting for this. I have Linux but do something with different way always excited

i've dowloaded it... how do I install this?

You don't install it, The source code is needed to build a custom kernel, but either enable overclocking or generally tweaking it to improve performance. You need the Android SDK to compile a kernel.

But, can we get the OS from this source or it's just the kernel?
Sent from my GT-S5830B using XDA App

Install Linux eg Ubuntu, down it, build it directly or git AOSP source then build.
My computer is unstable, or I can use it to port CyangenMod. But I have git AOSP source, I might try to build one. However, how to flash the built is a big trouble...

been trying to dowload this for a whole day. each time only got 10kBps speed, and resulting in timeout. also cannot resume. wth samsung????

Went well for me so here's my upload

progress of my version of rom
progress:
[kernel:-]
partially working kernel
ramdisk work completed need to compile and test
[rom:-]
have two versions
1)bootable and botanimation working with some cm11 libs
2)bootable but no bootanimation but going so far till package parser
[currently working on:-]
kernel(ramdisk)

Can anyone ask for the log of the s3 kernel to see what does and charge at boot ?

I had made a installable package
its installing perfectly
but no boot I guess the problem with the kernel
preload is also perfect
I don't have a perfect tool to edit kernel

I can say for sure when galaxy s2 get a successfull port
then it is easy for our device to port because s2 and note share

I'm rebuilding the rom now
I asked for help in kernel setup
he told
1)decompile both kernel
2)zimage(base kernel)------->replacing(port)
3)change some /dev/block
etc.....
I'm doin it now
I'm using archi port

No, forest is making it with JustArchi github, it isn't finished yet. I think you won't have to merge forest and n2 kernel because he will make it too

This is a kernel version with modified ramdisk.

I probably should work for TW-KK port.
At least it will boot and has adb working and recovery working.
In case port rom not working you can adb reboot to recovery and get back to your backup rom.
I have also enabled logcat so u can take logcat to debug the port rom.
No guarantee through:laugh:. GL.

Let us know the rezults

suggest me some thing
what to do next
one good thing is that i guess kernel booting
got logcat so
if there is kernel related thing
then it is work for @forest1971
else you tell wat to do
i have not seen logcat...sleepy

I will work more on it. Cheers.

[HELP] Porting G2's L to G1 [KERNEL]

Yo peeps,
Code:
[COLOR="Red"]For people who say I will wait for official update STAY OUT![/COLOR]
So i was trying to port the G2's Lollipop update to G1. Many of you may think itz quite useless, well i just decided to try because i am a big dev here to compile AOSP or CM12 roms without a proper device tree. So while we wait for Official Update or until CM/AOSP becomes stable i thought maybe i could try porting. So i managed to get the system and boot.img made a zip and now the problem seems with the kernel. I get a fall through to fastboot mode when i use their kernel and when i use ours it gets stuck on bootlogo. Both the kernels are of 3.4.42 and i am not good at kernels like the way i am at kang so if someone could help me with the kernel part maybe we can get L earlier.
This thread is for only people who can encourage and try helping! Others please excuse.
I unpacked both the boot.img made a zip of it and uploaded so that it would be easier for people to help. I dont mind testing it numerous times. Willing to listen and try anything and everything that can make it boot. So here are the kernels.
Hope to find help!

I think it is impossible without kernel source... This way you can play with Ramdisk only. Moto g2 has little bit different hw..

only difference is screen size and camera, the processor, graphics chip, ram, battery and sensors are the same. so it is possible to port g2 update to g1.

The ROM itself-yes
Kernel-no.

I know almost nothing about kernels and all related with it things and even do not know why I was mentioned by OP
But I have a question. Can we just flash firmware from G2? Can it brick our device completely in a worse way?
Why am I saying such a bool****? Read first line in that post again
Never the less I remember guys who flashed android 2.3 on samsung galaxy gio from galaxy ace and phone booted and even hadn't critical bugs...

I have flashed ZTE warp cm10 on ZTE v9a with kernel built by myself and it was also working... But with warp kernel there was no chance to boot v9 device up.
I think with flashing g2 lollipop over g1 shouldn't brake your phone permanently, unless you are not flashing modern etc. (just flashing system and kernel). But I cannot promise nothing will be broken

Try using a CWM flashable version of the G2 rom along with the CM12 kernel? You might be able to get some kind of result from it?

@S0bes i thought you may know something so kinda tagged u bro btw i tried flashing g2's stock firmware image it doesnt brick or anything but since they have a different kernel it still goes to fall through to fastboot mode even on g2's stock roms. the main difference is that 5.0 uses ART and ours DALVIK and hence i believe that what the issue.

I do not believe so. Neither Android 4.4.4 Moto G LTE nor, Moto G (2014) Kernels (or ROMs) boot on Moto G (2013.)

@yeshwanthvshenoy I know you stated you are a big dev, but since you are, you already know kernels can't be ported from an image. You need the source code. Unless you have a magical way of changing code without needing to decompile.
Still... if you are having fin making zips, go ahead, don't let my words discourage you. But... this is a dead end.

Agreed with @fermasia
if porting kernel without source was such an easy task by this time we had so many kernels
Only way is directly flash 2nd gen kernels to try our luck if some things work
All the best [emoji4]

I dont think there will be any luck since G 2014 has a different MSM board and that has to do with the result you will get. So if you manually flash XT1064 firmware on an XT1032 just expect a beautiful soft brick in the best of the cases... Just wait for official OTA, there are just days left for it!!! Next week we will se some news.

for this you need a new kernel for G1, which we dont have. (and even if we had it then we had the ROM too)
you will have to use the old kernel with the new ROM. which will obviously create tons of error.
have you tried CM12 kernel with the ROM?

For the kernel, try following and check if there is some progress.
Decompile both the kernels with dsixdia kitchen. You will get ramdisk and Zimage for each kernel. Try following combination.
4.4.4 Zimage (G1) + 5.0 Ramdisk (G2) + Modules (G1)
If no, try using init.rc of G1 and give another try.

I'm not planning on helping you do this, but the g2 and g1 use the same kernel. You only have to enable certain things in the defconfigs...

You don't really need it, decompile the boot.img and replace the zimage inside with a compiled one.
I don't recommend doing this. Porting in this case is pointless.
By the way, kernel source was released a while ago.

Good luck on the kernel. Though I highly suspect that Motorola will give us Lollipop on the Moto G before anyone is able to come up with a working port.

thanks for the info and help all of u are extending i know maybe this may not work out but itz just a try. and @Somcom3X can u please a little more of the above statements u said about changing defconfigs and few other stuff. Should i use G2's zimage and G1's ramdisk or any file that u think would make it boot? Can u specify the file name if so.

Get the basic source of the G1. Match the changes made to G2 for the L. Best to getthe old G1 kernel source and modify the things needed for the L. Test and Go.
Unless its creating changes in filesystem its good to play with.

Test build

Hello everyone.
http://download.jgcaap.xyz/files/bullhead/cm-13.0/
Would like to request if possible if someone could test this build
This build is based on CM device tree kernel and blobs, which shouldn't cause any issues on flashing.
As a test, please remember i'm not responsible to any damage which might occurr.
The worst thing might happen is not booting.
This rom is like flashing a CM nightly.
I'm interested on expanding my work between diferent devices. So please let me know how it goes.
Please list the bugs.
F2FS is compatible with this device?

The only thing considered stock is direct from the manufacturer, LG or Google. CM is not a stock OS, therefore if you are distributing the binary (boot.img) in your link then you must post a link to the kernel source compiled to make it. Otherwise you need to remove the boot.img and let people get their own kernel.
Thanks

done Thanks for clarifying.

Hello @jgcaap
i will test and report back
thanks for supporting 5x and 6p (i have both)
edit: i'm using F2FS and un-encrypted. I've had to change the kernel to jolla's, to make it boot. It does not boot on stock kernel.
everything else seems to be working fine.

Neptune Pine - Custom Rom Infomation and Testing

I'm looking at the Neptune pine to see what I can do with it.
so far I have obtained the kernel config
Configkernel3.4
This Thread is for sharing information and Q/A
My goal is to have a custom android rom compiled and then to try port different O/S's to it.

Nice! What's the status of your efforts?

How to the testing .....

Ok, should have read it better. Are you able to just compile a kernel for testing. Once you have a working one, that would be a good base for updating rom.

Any update on this?

Guess this is not going to happen. Just wish I still had the time I used to. I would have had a go my self, as the vanilla kernel is what kills this cool bit of kit.
I managed to get it to a usable state with google play installed, by installing SkyNET. Which tweaks the system on the fly when needed. Helps keep as much memory as possible.

Would the kernel source of the Nokia X help? as it uses the exact same hardware.
I have it downloaded, so if it will help, I can link.

I have given up on anyone doing anything with pine. So I tweaked stock rom as much as I could, got it running very nicely even with my 130GB storage (link2sd). I also modified the ramdisk image to support init.d on boot. Im also using kickarse kernel script.

I used rom kichen to mess with ramdisk (it was very risky as messing with boot image can brick pine). I manually added init.d support. Then repacked it. Luckly it worked fine. I even flashed it to my sons.
I extracted stock system.zip and tweaked it the way I wanted (debloated added apps I owned), then flashed that. As I added init.d, I could use scripts on boot to alter running of pine.
Im currently using Project skynet vr4, which runs very nice.

@fol What is skynet? Do you have a link?
