Go to reply no.

Choose Custom ROM from a device matching same resolution to reduce App
Sizerelated bugs
Get. Set. Go.
Step 1 : PatchingSystem Folder for the port patch.
First of all make a folder named "Port_Patch" andsetup all the folder as shown in
the images below.

1. Now,in Port_Patch make system folder in which make folders, "bin""etc"

"lib" "usr" "vendor""xbin" (without ")
2. Infolder "bin" copy pq & vold from your stock rom
3. Infolder "etc" copy "bluetooth" "firmware""wifi" "apns-conf.xml"
"vold.fstab" "vold.fstab.nand"

1. Infolder "lib" copy files as shown inthe image

2. Infolder "usr" copy usr/keylayout/Generic.kl

3. Infolder "vendor" all the files

4. Infolder "xbin" copy "libmnlp_mt662x" (x - '0' or '8')from stock

System has been patched, copy this /system to patch the /system of port ROM.
Step2: Patching the boot.img of the port rom.
This is bittricky but can be done easily.
1 So,first of download this little tool, to unpack & repack your boot.img-
MTKbootimg.zip- tested on Windows 7 & aboveplatform
2 Extractthe Tool and you will get two folders named "stock"& "port"
3 Copyboot.img's respectively from stock rom in"stock" folder & from port
romto "port"
4 Unpackboth boot.img repectively and they may look like this.

1 Fromstock copy "kernel" to port folderand just replace it.

2 Now,repack it, new file named "boot-new.img" will be generated.
3 Copy"boot-new.img" to port Rom Folder.
4 Deleteexisting "boot.img" and rename "boot-new.img" to "boot.img"

Now, your boot.img is patched, proceed to last step.

Step3: Modifying updater-script to install ROM accordingly.
1 So,it's the last step before flashing the rom. Now lets fix it.
2 First,you have to know your device mount points, that can be trackedusing
MTKDroid Tool or check them in stockrom updater-script.
3 Ihave my flashable stock rom so I willget mount points from it.
4 Asshow in the image, my stock updater havedifferent mount point for system
& data while port havedifferent.

In updater-script
Openupdater-script using notepad++ from "port ROM\META-
INF\com\google\android"
Remove wholelines contain assert word at the beginning of the file like this line
assert(getprop("ro.product.device")== "cancro" || getprop("ro.build.product")
=="cancro");
Verify/system should be mounted in "/dev/block/mmcblk0pS" & /datashould be
mounted in "/dev/block/mmcblk0pD"

What is S andD?
S SystemMount Point
D DataMount Point
To know thesemount point values
- Open MTKDroid Tool after connecting your phone to PC.
- Open BlockMaps.
- Check theselines.

1 Now,replace "mmcblk0pX" (X - no. for the mount) from stock to port as

designated for the partition.
2 NowSave the updater-script.

Finally, the ROM is ready toflashed.

Step4: Compressing & Flashing the ROM.
1 Now,the rom is ready to be packed and flashed.
2 Simplyget to the main directory with META-INF, system, boot.img, etc files.
3 Selectall the files and compress them to zip. Select the compression ratio as
youwant.
4 Aftercompressing copy the ROM into root of sdcard
5 EnterCustom Recovery, wipe data & Cache
6 Flashthe ROM.zip wait till it completes.
7 Waittill it boots, or else take log using ADB logcat. (Hint: If LED light
blinks,the rom is booting)
FOR Fixes Proceed to nextpost and find out the way to tackle and
fix the bugs.
Let'sget started:
Bootloop?
Replace following files(from stock to port):

libandroid_runtime.so
libandroid_servers.so

If possible try modifying framework.jar "\smali\com\android\server" (copy from
stock)

one.Replace vold.fstab from /etc folder
USB not mounting your device?

Unpack your boot.img replace init.usb.rc from ramdisk by stock boot.img

init.usb.rc

Networkrelated issuea? (3G)

Replace from /etc folder, mddb then replace agps_profiles_conf, apns-
conf,epo_conf, spn-conf, virtual-spn-conf-by-efpnn, virtual-spn-conf-by-efspn,
virtual-spn-conf-by-imsi

For high audio volumeissue

Replace libcustom_nvram.sofrom /lib

For flash light notcoming from camera

Replace libfeatureio.so from /lib

To fix compass
Replace libsensorservice.so from /lib

To fix video showing pixels andglitches

Replace libvcodecdrv.so from /lib

Showing wrong ram info in task manager

Don't change ro.product.device value in the build.prop.

For green camera/ lag / no wallpaper /no status bar (important file for
mt6582)
Replace libdpframework.so from lib folder
Any resolution problem
Add this line to build.prop
ro.sf.lcd_density=your phone screen dpi
ex- ro.sf.lcd_density=480 for FHD devices

Touch screen problem

(Sometimes screen behaves weird ..means for example if you touch bottom left
effect on top right ...almost opposite response)
Replace libinput.so from /system/lib folder.

Wifi tethering problem

Replace dnsmasq from /bin folder

Screen is upside down

In build.prop find this line
ro.sf.hwrotation=0
change the value 0 to 180.
ro.sf.hwrotation=180

Problem with Proximity Sensor

Replace nvram.so, nvram_platform.so, nvram_daemon_callback.so
