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.

Hi people,
With the recent announcement of @pedestre (creator of apolo kernel) that the development of apolo kernel comes to an end and Gustavo kernel does not be updated since a long time, we have no costum kernel for the many 5.1.1 roms that are coming to our phones....
Many people uses bln, cpu and gpu voltages control etc.
I want to ask someone with skils who can compile latest cm kernel, witch i think that will be compatible with all newest 5.1.1 roms, with basiclly feautures like bln and others... and if its possible, keep it update with lates cm realises....
Thanks, i hope some dev can help us
Yes, we need kernel developers

Always been considering to build a kernel, especially porting dorimanx to lollipop. Having trouble on ubuntu with dorimanx's instructions, so I will try bbqlinux instead and see how it goes.

I can develop if @pedestre can give me the permissions to let me continue Apolo. Although, I'll do that and all the other ROMs' building stuff after 6th of June.

I'm sure he would give you persmission to do that.
Right now I'm cloning my repo of dorimanx kernel. Have made a few changes like chhapil (except no uber tc yet). I'll see if I can release something next week (however will be very busy with exams). I'm still very new at building kernels so expect a few quirks with the kernel.

Should be alright since android kernel is open source.
This thread is already awsome!
Yes please LL Kernel! CM sourced RR for galaxy s2 gt i9100 needs kernel!
Developers please come forward we beg you!
@warrior1208 Instead of continuing a Kernel, why not make and develop one yourself and name the kernel yourself as well? It would be nice if there's a new kernel name in our device. Just suggesting here...

Let's see. I'll try. But first, I have to update all the three ROMs and then a custom kernel. Although, as I stated, I'll be able to do that after 6th of June.

I vote for gustavo's kernel since last version of it was just everything i needed. Miss it's colour control very much
I would love to see a TWRP kernel, as I use the file manager to delete unwanted system files on rom updates.
I do think it has a more friendly UI too.
We need 2 type of kernel. One like gustavo_s' and other is like apolo.
One for full control
And other is daily usage and more stable
Or maybe one based on apolo with CPU and GPU OC

I'm pretty sure there not much work needed to get Gustavo's kernel working on newer lollipop builds. Right now, I've made changes to io schedulers, TCP algorithm, supersu. Still have no clue how to get build started, at least there's progress. Change of mind. Will be busy with exams.

Hi guys i need you to test the performance of this kernel i've made
ONLY DECEMBER CM12.1 NIGHTLIES COMPATIBLE

Please tell me how your Phone performs,if better or worse.
NOTE : I don't know if this is the right section as i'm not sure if this is actually "worth" putting in development section.(waiting for user evalutation)

Of course it boots.
I Have tested on mine and it's blazing fast.I Just wanted make sure it's the kernel and not the mods that i applied to the ROM ^^
The perform with your kernel is the same has cm 12.1 stock kernel and when i install your kernel my wifi dont work im using moke open source rom up to date with the cyanogenmod sources and you can add some cpu governors, faux sound control, simple gpu algorithm.

If it is a kernel, then dont create a normal thread. Create a DevDB project for testing it. Or I will make a DevDB project and give you the credits.

I think it doesn't "reserve" being a project because this is just an experiment i made with a toolchain,also i'm not going to add any feature to it anytime soon.
yes it's working fine and make things better.
Overall a decent kernel to try on.

Well, that's not really a reason to not make other kernels.
E.g.: take a look at the famous Google Nexus 5 development section. I can see 6 kernels just on the first page. On second page there are another 4 kernels.
Kernels are different and that also depends on the developer, how much knowledge he has and what's the purpose of his kernel.
Franco.Kernel (by franciscofranco) and ElementalX kernel (by flar2) are two of the most famous kernels. Those two devs are famous devs with high knowledge who gained trust and respect from people.
In the Google Nexus 5 section, Franco.Kernel thread has not less than 7,4 millions views and ElementalX 4,6 millions. I believe there might be people who even buy a phone just because it got Franco or flar2 as devs.
On other hand, if devs would collaborate, they would only make awesomeness.

Then you have to wait, because I saw that the H variant developer Vince is experimenting the cpu oc to 1.6Ghz and gpu oc to 650Mhz, if it will satisfy him he will include it in his kernel. But all this is for H variant I don't know if he will give support for other variants...maybe SoUnd001 will work with him or he's already working and he will release it:good:

Hi!
I am relativelly new at XDA. I think i read somewhere that pledging cash for help to get a certain thing done is allowed but am a bit unsure. So excuse me if this post is perhaps slightly against the rules or so. Moderators can of course in that case delete it. But i would in that case also appreciate the advice on how to make this inquiry more in accordance to the rules of the XDA.
-----------------------------
And here's my question:
I own a Samsung tab A with the S-pen (2019), device with model number SM-P205, and i really love it. The most practical thing i ever owned; the size, the pen, snappy enough, pretty much everything about it ticks all the right boxes for me. I understand there are few other people here that also find it practical and want to make the most of it. Which would be much easier with at least a TWRP. There was a brave attempt to make it, but the dev abandoned it.
I am thinking that perhaps some of us that own the device are interested enough in this that we could perhaps cough up some dough to make it worth some developers while to make the TWRP.
I for one could pledge at least $100 for this purpose.
Anyone else with me?
do you need twrp for p205/p200 new?

Did you try it yourself on your device?
Is it just TWRP or is it kernel too and do you flash it some other way than usual (Odin)? I don't really understand.

Actually I never did get to it. I have other tablets with newer versions of Android now so I think I will sell the p205.
And I tried to find that user you suggested on Telegram but he's no longer there, as it seems.. I guess no further development for this tablet?
