You need to find also the specific libraries and port them.

But I think you can port it with this replacing only if its android 4.4.2 version because the 4.4.2 boot image cant boot up the 4.4.4 or higher

No, you have an ARMv7 CPU. Ours is ARMv6.
Also, our wpasupplicant isn't binary compatible with your other rom's libs.
I know that there are actually LOTS of "How to port ROMS" in this forum now.. but I would like to share a certain source I found that is actually fool proof
Here it goes!
find a ROM that is designed for the same CPU type and the same phone manufacturer. Any stock Gingerbread, ICS, or CyanogenMod 7/9 ROM should work, but you’ll have to make sure your phone can handle the ROM – no ICS for an HTC Hero, for example. Also, your Port ROM's original Phone should have the same RESOLUTION with that of your phone's.
You will need:
**Notepad++
**a compression program (WinZip or 7zip and etc)
**the ROM you want to port to your phone (let’s call it the "Port ROM")
**a ROM designed for your phone (let’s call it"Base ROM")

This guide may mention some files or directories that aren’t present in your particular ROM; don’t worry, just carry on.
On your PC, extract the .ZIP files containing the two ROMs, and navigate to /system/app in your extracted Port ROM and copy stk.apk, vpnservices.apk, camera.apk, and bluetooth.apk into a temporary directory somewhere else on your PC.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now, delete the following folders from your Port ROM and replace them with the ones from your Base ROM: /data, /system/app, /system/framework, /system/fonts and /system/media.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
From your Base ROM, copy /system/lib/libandroid_runtime.so to the system/lib/ directory of your Port ROM, overwriting the file.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Next up, move the .APKs you copied earlier back into the /system/app directory of your Port ROM.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Open up /system/lib in your Port ROM and copy all the files and folders. Paste them into the Base’s /system/lib directory, replacing all. Then go back to the Port ROM and delete the /system/lib folder, and replace it with the /system/lib folder from the Base ROM.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Next, navigate to the /system/etc/init.d folder in the Port ROM and do the same copy-from-Port, paste-to-Base, delete-from-Port, copy-from-Base, paste-to-Port shuffle as before.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Navigate to /system/etc/permissions and do that same copy-paste dance one more time.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
open system/build.prop from both the port and the base ROM in Notepad++. Update the Base build.prop to match the values for “ro.build.description=” and “ro.build.fingerprint=” from your Port. Now save the Base build.prop, exit Notepad++, and copy the Base build.prop into the Port ROM, overwriting the Port build.prop.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
In Notepad++, open \META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script from both your base and port ROMs. Edit the Port’s script to be like the Base’s updater-script: specifically, change, edit, or add the sections for permissions, ui_prints, asserts, run_programs, and installing the kernel. Don’t change any of the symlinks. In the Port script, make sure that the ‘format’ values are appropriate for your device (compare them to the Base script).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Finally, make sure that your kernel is specifically for your device.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now, if you desire, you can update any apps you require, or add any tools like BusyBox or SuperSU.
And that’s it! Your base ROM is now ready to be zipped and installed on your device via Clockwork Mod!

Hello I Wanted to port Cm7 On a New cpu named as - MediaTek 6573 ! it is an armv6 one ... any suggestions from where to start ....etc ?
I will definitely give this a try.
Great guide. Subscribed!!

Okay, question: what is the point of porting a ROM made for a device with the same CPU and same manufacturer?? there is VERY few phones that are made by the same company and the same cpu!
Click to expand...

Well that is to ensure "safety" when porting a ROM.. the guide i posted was a beginner's guide on how to port.. as you can see, almost 80% of the procedure is just basically copy&paste..
however, if you have a good background now in codes and porting things, i believe you may not follow step-by-step the procedures i stated above.

What about dual Sim ph?
Does anyone have any idea what would cause a "Modem Crashed Forced Upload Mode" on a port for SGS3?
I can't seem to pinpoint what causes that (I think it's a kernel panic but I could be wrong)
Looks like this would work on International Note 2 and Tmobile Note 2. They have the exact same hardware and everything. I was wondering about the last statement about kernel. Can't I just copy the boot.img from tmobile note 2 to international note 2 ? would that work ? I am not familiar with kernels and stuff. Need advice.
Thanks

How to use it:

3. Now open the terminal and type the following:
Code:
./port.sh
In some cases this might not work so try this:
Code:
bash ~/port.sh
4. Now follow the on-screen instructions and done. :good:
5. You can find your ported ROM in ~/PORT/ directory.
6. Enjoy and press THANKS.

hey what it exactly do?
I tried to have fun with patchrom but have too old laptop ( has not enough ram ).
So it just copying all the files or also patching frameworks?
You know what I mean. That we need the same manufacturer rom with the same base not?
For example rom is based on cm10 and I want to port to base AOSP. So will this work or not?

Hi Guys,
I have been looking into porting of Galaxy S5 toolbox for Note 3.
I have decompiled all the S5 files (SecSettings, Framework-res, SystemUI) and found that it is possible to port it to Note 3 (I might be wrong);
But I don't have fluent knowledge of .smali files, Somehow I manage to understand something by converting .smali files into .java..
So can some dev help me, so that we can work together for porting toolbox to Stock firmware of Note 3.
Thanks.

that mean your system wasnt writed.
so! install it again, before flash it do an advanced wipe: data, cache, dalvick-cache, system and then flash the rom.
if the rom boot and get bootanimation that mean the system was writed.
if not, reboot it in recovery and try to do a backup, here you will see if the system has some size(xxxMb).
if system is 0 or a very small size that mean it wasn't mounted on instaling process and do the next:
-restore your working rom
- do a wipe data factory reset(not advanced)
reinstall the rom and it should work.
if not again, then you should make a reviev of "updater-script" in Meta-inf folder and correct the mistakes
