Hey folks I’m new to this forum, sorry if this was posted on wrong place.
I have searched a lot on “how to enable KVM on android devices” until I found a tutorial (by Limbo Emulator) that has guided to:
Modifying the file “sourcecode/arm64/configs/*****-defconfig” and adding some other parameters and compile.
So my question is basically can this be done on our MTK devices? Because that tutorial was made for galaxy s8 exynos processor.
I could ’ve tried that instead of asking but we need to download gigabytes of ubuntu and tools to compile such kernel.
Can someone please answer?
Note; kernel sources of MYA-L22 are downloadable from official huawei website.
Thanks

Hi everyone,
I’m using CM7 for a month now and very appreciate it ! I’m a bit of a noob in the Android & Linux world and so I wanted to have more information about a few things that I’m reading regularly. I’m looking for papers, blog posts, wiki sources or your personal tips and tricks about :
- In what consist porting a ROM to a device ? I mean for instance in what consists the porting of the ICS sources to a mod as Cyanogenmod 9 for a specific device ? (I’m using the Motorola Defy)
- What is building a ROM? And what are Nightlies ?
- What are the main difficulties in porting sources to other devices?
- How does rooting of a device works? What is modified in the device?
- How is the bootmenu installed ? What is modified to have access to that menu during the booting ?
I’m asking because I was looking for technical information and found nothing !
So, if you could help with all kinds of information and sources, do not hesitate !
Thank you everyone !

For boot menu, the logwrapper binary is changed to a new file. That file is one of the first things run by the kernel, and this binary is used to hook in and light the blue LED, and listen for a button press. It then starts the boot menu for real if you press the down button, and displays it on the screen.
Rooting is exploiting of a vulnerability in the device, in order to gain root (superuser/administrator) access, and thus full control of the running system. You then leave a binary in place to allow further access as root without issues (su binary), and Superuser.apk to control root access on a per-app basis.
Thank you for answering.
Do you know what kind of vulnerability is exploited ?

Yes. psneuter is the standard root exploit the one click tools use
Hello guys, :good:
I just started yesterday on building a aosp based custom rom for note 3, but I'm stuck somewhere and I'm here to ask something about my port session.
Firstly in the guides I've readed there says that I have to find the device tree and vendor propietary files. I have found something on git hub:
https://github.com/sibeveyh/device_samsung_hlte
https://github.com/sibeveyh/vendor_samsung/tree/kitkat/hlte
found these two binaries what do I have to do with these? Which one should I use? Where do I have to place it?
Thanks for the help
some help??
Hello friends,
I am new to this forum. I hope I'm not duplicating a thread here.
I have been Google-ing around to find a way for installing a custom recovery on my SM-T531 and a rom for 5.1.1. but have been unable to find one. I currently, have 5.0.1.
i want to do this for being able to install Kali Linux on my tablet. can anyone shed light on this?
Regards,

Use this post to root and have a custom recovery. I don't think anyone's succeeded porting Kali or Ubuntu to this tablet

it just run in a chroot environment, yet. but iam working on getting it native.
check this android xserver:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=x.org.server
and linux deploy
sometime back this was posted
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63556533&postcount=135
unfortunately moonbutt closed his thread just when I and another member posted boot image etc on the board..understand he may have moved on to better things
not knowledgeable here but appreciate if someone can take this up or redirect this to some dev who can make a rooted kernel since the source has been published
thanks
SM-T237P
Would love to root my 5.1.1 tab , so I too would be begging for another developer to step in to fill this need. I need a kernel with UVC video support.
OKAY so now I know my posts were getting deleted when I asked for T235 kernel root

yesterday or may have been on Sat night, on the T533 thread I tried to catch moonbutt's attention by pointing to the T235 source (when apparently he was saying the T533 had no source but was addressing that kernel) and now that post has gone like on his closed thread (just when it seemed he was taking an interest thanking me for providing boot.img and other files)
anyway...need some dev who can volunteer to work on this and at least someone who would respond yes or no (deleting posts maybe to avoid a side conversation)
I pulled the source started to look it up and looked up on how to modify kernel..looked doable to a point but this is from a total novice (all i know is to mod some apk, compile/re-compile but no building stuff)

mac,
i had your post removed because it was interfering in H's thread. I tried with this device a little while ago but testers seem to think they are at liberty to not follow instruction, or just change their minds mid-stream like they haven't just wasted my time and resources. . The upside would be if you have the source and the setup to compile it and thereby test your own work then, i can absolutely run you through what you need to do, The tricky part is knowing which tools you need for the packing/unpacking of the ramdisk.
If this is a qcom/msm device you will need AIK which is the best solution.
If this is a marvell variant you will need ketut's degas bootimg toolkit which is the best solution.
You need [likely] to apply the patch mentioned in my thread to security/selinux/selinuxfs.c
Be aware that samsung's source releases are usually incredibly sloppy and the defconfigs for devices are usually somewhat off, missing config settings.
Check for sdcardfs xattrs, virtual xattrs, etc . you need to make sure those are selected in order for your internal and external storage to mount.
Find the correct defconfig for your device and post it as a zipped attachment. or check my thread and look at my sources on git, specifically the commit history [msm devices mostly] to get an idea of what you need. You can get a linux os running in a virtual machine and compile just fine as long as you have all the pre-requisites installed. The getting started link in my signature is a rough/general guide to help get you up and running.

ps, my thread is just locked, not closed, i was getting too many OT/non-dev postings. I open it when/if i have something new and then close it again.
thanks moonbutt74...totally understand...appreciate the links in your signature and other resources...will start looking into it (long long journey but gotta try)

mac,
no prob, recommended step 1, get your linux distro set up, stongly recoommend kali/debian 2.0, either in vm or better as 2nd os in a dual boot scenario.

Hi everyone,
I was very excite when I saw this post on TRWP site: https://twrp.me/site/update/2020/12/31/twrp-3.5.0-released.html since it would add the so much missed support for native android 10 devices like my 1+7tp mclaren, but to build this twrp you need an android device specific for 7tp mclaren I belive (similar to the ones found in https://github.com/TeamWin/?q=android_device_oneplus) (the android 10 branch)
Are there any guides on how to do this? I'm more than willing to give it a go and share it back if i manage to get it working.
My whole point in getting a OnePlus device was that I could dual boot (it would be really nice to be able to dual boot nethunter for work since I constantly need to do simple security assessments on the fly. Having that possibility on my mobile would be a huge time saver for me)
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
And congratulations to all on this forum. It's always great to see the coding communities at work!

do we have any TWRP version possible to stall ROMs ? I tried 3.4.0.2 and 3.4.0.12, none of them works
