[Q] Works on Lenovo? - PAC Q&A

Hi, quite a simple question really, but would Pac Rom work on the Lenovo TAB A10-70 (A7600-F)?

Check here if your device is listed. If not, start here to learn to build/port it for your device.

Well, my device is not on the list...
Guess I'll have to go about and compile my own version of Pac.
Lucky me I got Ubuntu installed on my EHD.

Ubuntu Touch on Note 10.1

Anyone planning to port Ubuntu Touch to the Note 10.1. It seems like any device that can run CM 10.1 can run Ubuntu. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting
I think we need a multi boot boot-loader maybe the method like on the nexus 7 IT Rocks can mutiboot several os ..
I have ran ubuntu on nexus not tried touch yet. Maybe i will today later..

A multi boot would definitely be nice but you should be able to backup and restore to previous Android as it keeps the custom recovery.
There's a how-to guide for porting on wiki.ubuntu if someone is capable of doing it:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Porting
Ooo this sounds very cool. I tried to read the wiki but my head almost exploded trying to understand the first bits. So I doubt I am the one to get it. lol!
Ok! According to Ubuntu post on nexus 10 forum they discovered that the Ubuntu touch is actually a Cm10.1 rom with Ubuntu over it and they say that porting is as simple as porting cm to other devices

Trying to port JB ROM

Hey guys.
I am new to android developing.
I started by porting the CM10.1 ROM from HTC Desire, but my phone is stuck at the Huawei logo when it boots up.
I can still flash another ROM, but that is not the problem.
I want to know how to fix this. I want it to go past the Huawei Logo.
By the way, I used this procedure: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1598713 and I used Aurora ICS 5.0 for the base ROM. I know it doesn't have the same version of android, but there is no reason I shouldn't be experimenting like this.
Can anyone help?
Thanks.

Need to ask something
Hey again.
I haven't had time to do anything to my phone yet.
I am replying to ask if there is an awesome tutorial out there that could help me with this porting?
Currently, to port my ROM, I replaced files in port ROM from base ROM. Should I replace files in base ROM from port ROM?
Thanks for the help.
Hi Again
Hello.
I found out that there was a problem with the base ROM.
I have ported CM10.1 from U8800! Yaay!
But there are four things that are not working:
- WiFi
- Bluetooth
- Cam Recording
- Sound
Can you guys tell me how to fix the audio? In the logcat, it says that there is no sound output.
Thanks

Hey guys.
I've got the log attached to this reply. Have a look at the audio events and see what is wrong. I can't figure it out by myself.

I have just ported the Jelly Bean from u8800pro to u8800non-pro, so I will be working on this ROM.
Seriously, I have no idea when I will be releasing a fully functional ROM. Because I have my studies as well, so I don't get much time to work on the ROM.
The audio is working in this ROM (wasn't working in the previous port),
The things that are currently not working are:
- WiFi
- Bluetooth
- Video Recording
I will try my best to do as much as possible.
I am new at building android ROMs, so please don't expect too much from me
I will be needing some help from other developers as well.
Do you think I should make a thread for this? or is there already enough not-fully functional JB ROMs there?
Thanks.:good:
Lololololol ridiculous!
Another porting, same issues...
How many are now? 4, 5 Jelly beans?
Ooo man, some times is just better to stay quiet....

I know how you feel. I also feel that way.
I would like to build Jelly Bean from source, like Blefish is doing right now, but I need a 64bit computer for that (mine is only 32bit. Unless there is a hack for this, I can't build from source.
I think everyone is going to start porting Jelly Bean ROMs until one starts working. :silly:
Everyone is porting the rom with the intention of making ir fully working and then abandon development. Why don't you and others continue the work that is already done instead of making a new port which will end up like the others.
Like your are having compatibility issues due to your 32bit computer, perhaps our device is incompatible with JB...

Our device will remain compatible with every new android untill android will be using some new architecture of processor, so "sometimes it's better to stay silent".
OP, abandon your trials of getting a working JB using copy-paste ports. It can be only ported from source.
P.S.: just install ubuntu x64 and try to build something like CWM recovery out of forumber's source. If it builds, you can build anything you want. Today's computers know how to emulate x64. I'm myself using an old pentium d 820 (i386, sse2 and that's all) and I can build.

That I don't know for sure but I believe our is. But why 4 or 5 JB around, all with exactly same issues
Now I and others also pick up a JB Rom, mod it here and there and then instead of 4/5 roms we can have dozens. Then again non working well. This makes sense?

It's still same ROM with other features.. It isn't simply fix Wi-Fi without source.

Because most of devs or those who like to be called developers don't have required knowledge and then leave the project as an excuse.
Honestly I have no hope that we can see a JB rom fully functional.

So I can install ubuntu x64 on my x86 laptop? Are you talking about a virtual machine or installing ubuntu x64 on the actual laptop?
And as for others: Instead of saying that JB is not compatible with our device and all that sh*t, why don't you encourage me and give me some solutions.
Anyways, I am not posting this JB ROM until it's fully functional, because I might stop development as well (getting interested in firefox os).

First of all,your CPU must support x64,If it supported,you can install x64 to you computer.
If you want install x64 system in virtual machine (like VirtualBox),you CPU must support VT-x or AMD-V (virtualization).
You can check virtualization and x64 support via SecurAble;

then u can download PA source and u can manually build PA for s2 by adding kernel and device files...

if u have the device specific code(like kernel source and it varies device to device) for your device then u can surely build rom for yourself..
first u need to download the PA source code ,,, just follow these steps to download from the below post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1863547
this post will also tell you how to add device specific stuff in the PA source code and compile it all together..

Any updates on SM-T230 Android ports?

This poor device has been stuck on touchwiz 4.4.4 for a very long time, it would be great if somebody tried to port a good rom to it.
Please reply with updates, if there's any.

Android 10 should work with some optimization- porting the kernel to a relatively new version would likely be the hardest part.

How complicated is it to slim down the builds as much as possible?
I don't see needing all the extra TouchWiz crap that this device barely supports and had survived using Link2SD for storage. Something stable supporting at least basic apps is all I need, and most of those (Gmail, Chrome, etc) are now available from play store.

Hi, my advice is starting by taking sources from other variants (you can find them in GitHub S3NEO organization) and editing sources by starting from that base. For the kernel, it shouldn't be difficult to make a defconfig by always looking in matisse and millet ones. I advice you to start from Android 9 (lineage-16.0 branches) since they are the most stable. If you are really interested to work, you can write me in Telegram (same username as xda profile) and I can write you something more about what you should do.
Android 8, 9 or 10 will be nice, but right now I will be happy with Android 5. Are there any ROMs for degas higher than 4.4.4?
Are there any true Android 5 or Android 7 ROMs for this device?

Newer Android for Galaxy Tab S2 10.1

@Android-Andi could you please provide a guide for building a ROM for this device to compile and create an Android Go version or keep updated your excellent job? I would like to contribute, thank you.
Firstly this isnt Galaxy Tab S2 this is Galaxy Tab 2
Next he isnt obliged to do that! There are tons of tutorials available on internet as well as on XDA
Iirc Andi left development and we should be thankful to him for keeping our tab alive
I myself am trying to upstream kernel if i succeed we might get new android versions
Well this is great news! I have minor problems on my tab 10.1 and 7.0 like it being sometimes very slow which is common for android 7 unfortunately. I wish both of you the best of luck!
