An advice, make Full Backup of current ROM/Firmware before doing anything with device you are willing/thinking to try.
I'm using Huawei Ascend y511. so can't do that, but i believe "CN" stands for Chinese and "EN" sure for English. regarding recovery language, for me i get two different modes, recovery and factory setting i believe. Stock recovery for my mobile is in English and the other is Chinese. But, in case you get chinese recovery, i think it can be replaced with "Custom Recovery (English)".
Once Stock/Custom ROM is installed/flashed, you sure can change language option to English or Chinese as mentioned about ROM languages (Not for recovery).
Point is that; once ROM is installed/flashed & you are satisfied with it and you also got backup of current Kitkat ROM and you find recovery is in CN. You can restore ROM to Kitkat or in case you don't care about warranty and can flash/install Custom recovery(English language) without going into CN recovery. then i think it shouldn't be a problem.

this rom work fine with my device

Porting Nougat 7.0 from Motorola Moto G 2015

Is it possible.Moto G has same pixel density and same screen resolution and chipset
Please do it it would be great

CM Actions , Kernel Selinux Changes where will they go its better to compile from source

I am a begginer i dont fully understand the whole concept of building or porting roms.But anything will work

You can give it a shot.Same kernel and chipset,should work.I will test it for sure.

Well im not good at porting i would need some help and mentoring but i would like to see Nougat run on Lenovo a6000

How about Yu Yuphoria? Same everything there too. And they've got a working build already too.

Redmi2 or prime also got nougat. Mostly ported roms frm this phone also. Pls cjeck it out...

Yes,indeed.I can check it out,there was a tutorial how to port roms somewhere here.Redmi 2 ports are usually pretty stable.

Allright,thats the nougat for redmi 2.Its not public yet,but seems quite promising.Guess we will have to wait until its uploaded,but if I get some free time before that I might try to port the moto g3 build(just for fun,of course it wont be as stable as redmi 2 port).

I would also try porting it using mshoaib7s guide but question is which rom to use as base

*Request* Someone Please Port the given ROM for Our Harpia , would be of great use :)

MIUI 8

There are several problems with this base ROM:
It's built for ARM64, and, while our devices support it, Motorola have decided that it's better to run 32bit Android (don't know why but ok)
Its base is Android 4.4 KitKat. The G4 Play ships with 6.0.1 Marshmallow.
A much better choice would be the Moto G3 (2015)'s MIUI ROM here (base 6.0.1/CM13, 1GB RAM/8GB storage variant) since it is based on Marshmallow and runs 32-bit. I have tried to port it but it is stuck on the boot logo.

You can also try porting this https://forum.xda-developers.com/yu-yuphoria/development/rom-miui-8-global-version-6-9-29-t3479996
also check out Yu Yuphoria's Custom rom section it has several 32bit and 64bit ROM'S SOC is Same and hence Porting can be Done .

Thank you, I will definitely try, but it probably won't succeed because it is based on 5.1.1 while the Moto G4 Play ships with 6.0.1. I will let you know if it works.

AOSP 7 for GIONEE S6s (Blu Vivo 5R) MT6753

Guys please, i need help for camera not connecting, and when I port camera LIBs by following guides, the zip wouldn't flash, and if it flashes it goes bootloop or stuck on bootanimation, so please help me.
the bugs I found are:
- Camera
- FingerPrint
- MADs Gestures file not found
- Gapps ARM64 7.0 or 7.1.1 not installing

Dude Keep Going!!!!!!
I wish i could be more help to you, but i am not very good with this stuff. I do know that the guys over on XDA Vivo 5 have a working port of mm 6.0 and now a mostly working AOSP 7. I think they hang out on Facebook. Maybe you could work with them and get this port working for us. I will gladly be a tester for you.

Any progress on this?

lineage OS for phab 2

has anyone tried to install Lineage on Phab 2 yet?

Yup I've tried the Russian version. I've tried all four of thier rooms listed on thier Lenovo forum. All are for the PB650M all install and run perfectly with one critical fail. No sim services. No IMEI and no Baseband. Epic fail.
It appears to be an issue with the mediatek CPU. MTK devices all tend to loose thier connectivity after flash a rom. Two weeks I've tried different back up tools for Baseband, imei, radio, modems and kernels. So far nothing has worked.
It was super easy to root super easy to install twrp 3.02 and upgraded to 3.03. so far tats as far as I can get it to go. I've learned that PB650M ROMs and recovery images all install on our device. Now if I can beat the MTK issue we are in.
The hunt continues.

are you tested this ROM?? works for P650Y? What is the base? Because the last OTA for 650Y is 650Y_S041_181101_ROW, but is interesting.

I've tested it on my pb2-650m. it works smoothly and 3x speed than stock. everything works fine except flashlight, camera (focus error) , screencast. thats all I've found. it should works on 650y also cause they both have same specs kernals and hardware. if you get error "this is for pb2-650m" , remove assert get prop lines in the updater script in rom file. then flash it. backup your current rom using twrp. have a good day.

Is there a updated version with fixed flashlight and camera? Where did you find the ROM?

does anyone have this reuploaded?

Any change?
Is there any change from posting this topic? After latest update of the phone, it is slow and after restart initializing of system takes forever. I would like to install Lineage OS, but I can not find any good tutorial or any legit download link at least.
