You may need to get ROM first.

So it works standalone? There should be a HDMI interface, right?
If so, maybe you can try to find RK2918 compiling environment to build your image.

There's an HDMI interface but when the module is stillconnected on tv, else there's an 46 pin.
If I can reflash it with the hdmi or USB on interface, kindly tell me

Changing your build.prop (and more exactly, your build information) won't really help you too much in this case; you're running an Intel-chip Android build, and most of the apps in the Play Store expect an ARM-chip based Android build. While the majority of the Apps rely on only Java (which is cross-platform) for their main code, if they need any ARM-only Native Code libraries they simply won't link on an Intel-based Android.
Now that you have a GNote build.prop (and you REALLY shouldn't change any of the lines except the ones that start with "ro.build."), please report back and let us know if my suspicions are correct, though.

You were right.Some apps worked but not much.For example dropbox worked but chrome didn`t.I think i will stop right here and install ubuntu.
Edit : Of course i didn`t changed any of these lines except ro.build.

These are pre-built & cannot be decompiled - you might be able to reverse engineer them but unless you know what you are doing & and an expert coder I wouldn't bother tryin
Google reverse engineering lib files

You will need to build an alsa audio lib & a new kernel most likely
Google is your friend - I'm not a coder -I'm a repair tech

You will most likely need ida pro - it retails over $1000 usd
https://www.hex-rays.com/products/ida/index.shtml
Like i said - unless you are an expert coder and actually know what you doing - forget reverse engineering
And there's plenty of guides to building alsa audio libs and kernels but again unless you are an expert coder & know what you are doing you won't get very far

You really need to do your research
Kernels are built from source - you will have to obtain the source code from github.com and also any commits from other branches and then commit your own changes and build the kernel
Please Google search for more information - can't give spend anymore time on this

Why does't this app run on my device?

Hi all
I have a Jadoo4 stick that runs on Android, similar to Chromecast with HDMI. It has an app to watch live TV from East Asia.
I made an APK of that app, but whenever I try to install it on other devices (like my phone), it fails.
I think because it is because of I need to port it to my phone (oneplus 3t), but I'm not sure of that, nor I'm capable of porting it.
The specs of the device (Jadoo4) that runs the app are the following :
Quad Core Processor
1 GB RAM
8 GB Flash Memory
Android 4.4.2
HDMI Video Output Supports [email protected] Hardware Decoding Supports Micro SD Supports USB
On my phone I run Android 7.1.
This is the link to the apk:
https://mega.nz/#!E4UhWZDR!woA6mmng5O7iPYUBSUasqw0bMTsZSpxP7zpwAePi2zE
I would gladly appreciate it if someone could help me out.

Hey,
As a start point, it would help, if you tell us, how did you create the apk?

Hi first of all, sorry for the late reply.
As a said, the stick runs android so it has Google Play Store tire on it
I downloaded an app called apk extractor, and made the apk with it.

So, I can successfully install the app on my phone with LinOS7.1. But when I start the app I got the error message. "Device not supported"
The only way to remove this warning would be to disable the check in the compiled code in the apk.

Thanks for checking it out. I know that that's the error. But unfortunately i don't have the skills to disable the check.
Do you have the necessary skills to do so?

Jeter/Aljeter Pie Kernel Sources

G6 Play Sources​
A huge thanks to the anonymous user who sent this post to Motorola. This issue is fixed. We can now clone all the Jeter kernel sources in one shot!!!
For Oreo:
Code:
git clone -b oreo-8.0.0-release-jeter https://github.com/MotorolaMobilityLLC/kernel-msm jeter
For Pie:
Code:
git clone -b pie-9.0.0-release-pcp29 https://github.com/MotorolaMobilityLLC/kernel-msm jeter
This will clone the kernel sources into a folder named "jeter".
Deprecated Information:
In an effort to combat Motorola's anti open source practices, I've collected all available kernel sources for the G6 Play and placed them into a single zip. Inside this zip are 43 gzips which contain all parts needed to build the kernel for our device.
Back story:
For those of you who don't know, Motorola has split the kernel sources into many parts. There is no easy way to grab them, sync them, or pull them. GitHub also lacks the ability to search for specific release tags.
Example: You can't search for "MMI-OCPS" in all of Motorola's repos, and you can't search like this inside of a single repo either.
So you have to manually open each repo one by one, and scan every page for the tag that matches the release you need. Sometimes there's nothing. Sometimes it's 5 pages down. Then you have to unpack all the kernel parts you found, and some of them need to be merged into the same folder. There is no explanation on what gets merged where. You have to try building it, get an error, then find the part you're missing in one of the zips and add it. Then repeat the process.
This is the most anti open source practice I've ever seen. I'm hoping this spurs some development for our device.
Link is now void.

Nice work putting all of these together.

I almost have a tree going! I clobbered one together so I can rebuild twrp using Omni 9.0 sources. I'm stuck at 99% but I'm slowly chomping the bit. It seems like I can easily build a 64bit twrp if I get the last kinks out. A complete build is slowly inching closer and I can finally taste it!

Well boy howdy this is just grand news

Good news and bad news. I finally got the build to complete. However, it's not booting because for some reason, it's not building the ramdisk. I can't figure out why. No amount of searching has helped me with this. I can't find any information about it. It shouldn't even be possible as far as I can tell. It produces a recovery.img, kernel, and dt.img but no ramdisk. I'm really lost on this one.

Can you link me to the kernel source? I'll repo sync and try it on my dev machine

At this point I'm willing to pay someone ? 20-30 bucks to whoever gets us a decrypted twrp that ain't bugged out and works for all variants and models lol

They don't exist in a single location on GitHub. There's literally no way to sync their sources that I'm aware of. I had to untar all the files that I have zipped together in the OP, into a rudimentary tree I found. Here's the closest thing we have.

Right tbh that's why I even stuck with Moto is because of his work. I just popped over at the g7play forum and there doing slightly worse because the g7play is a/b partition and all they have is a dirty port of twrp for the g7

Did the g6 play start out on Nougat? I have been out of development since i got sick last year. I wish between us all we could get this mess sorted out. I'm bummed Moto doesn't have an open source website besides github where we could just download the source code and build from scratch.

No. It came shipped with Oreo which means its treble compatible which is why you don't have to do the stuff people with phones before oreo need to do to "make" there phone treble compatible so they could flash gsi
