Android 5.1 for 64bit EU Desire 510 based on Desire 626 - HTC Desire 510

As described in the thread title, Is it possible do to so?
The new EU HTC Desire 626 comes with Android 5.1 and features the same snapdragon chip and the same wifi/bt/camera driver stack.
There is a custom rom with Android 5.1 from September 2015, fully working for Desire

It's not possible to just flash the 626 rom on the 510 unless you want to have bootloops? You'd need to make modifications and port it.

You musst be port some kernel settings

I've recompiled a kernel for linux many times but never for an android phone. wouldn't it be as easy as replacing the kernel .config file for 626 with the one from 510??

lony test it yourself

Nope.. it's much harder than just a basic Linux kernel compilation... You'd need to download over 27GB worth of CyanogenMod sources to a Linux/Unix machine to even begin working with the kernels or roms. You may be able to shorten that by a few GBs but it's still not as easy as grabbing another boot from another device. It's also a boot.img not a .conf..

It will be fantastic to see it on our desire 510

I guess its gonna be harder. Have to wait for the Mash (Cyanogenmod 13) that is if it will work too.

It can be hard or it can be easy... It all really just depends on the person that's doing the work and how much they know about it. It's definitely not as easy as grabbing another boot from another device because you would have to go through the entire kernel/boot.img to change all of the settings to be able to work with a different device. You'd have to extract the info from the boot.img in order to get to all the configuration files and even then it doesn't mean that when you go to rebuild it back into a boot.img again that it's gonna work.. It might and it might not, it really depends on what you know.

[Help] Porting Razr I CWM/TWRP to Acer Liquid C1

Iam sorry if my post out of topic here.
I dont want to be rude by PM any devs here, so I just ask here.
I sold my xperia mini, and choose something new and unique.
Acer Liquid C1, relatively cheap for me as a student.
Its pack an intel z2420 chipset, nearly same like Razr I.
The bad news is this phone only sold in asia.
So, currently no development so far until now.
I have got a hand on an OTA update file, and decrypted it.
Its a JB update, stock boot.img and recovery.img dumped.
Any developers here can help me to make a working custom recovery?
I cant sync CM repo because of connectivity problems.
And my old notebook powered by amd and nvidia, seems cant get along nicely with linux os until now.
I will upload my stock boot.img and recovery.img, if thats needed.
Maybe if there is a working recovery, more developments available.
So sad to see a phone quickly disappear in market, because of no development goes on.
Thank you
lol

Before flashing any custom ROMs, you need to root your phone, unlock the bootloader, and flash a custom recovery. After doing this, you can flash moto msm8960 ROMs for jbbl.

How exchanged with external memory "sd-card1"?
The phone has 8 GB of internal memory but some of it is used by the ROM and apps. 5.5 looks right.

Stop being afraid and use the basics of ROM flashing. Just try it out, but make a backup of your current ROM before flashing that ROM.
Edit
did you read the last post in that ROM's thread? Someone posted about 7 hrs ago that it was NOT compatible with our JBBL, and that it requires the KKBL. you posted your last post on this thread about 6 hrs after this was reported. Why are we asking about this when we know that it will not work? Contact Motorola and request that they release the KKBL to us.

I've obtained the v1 official MM soak test for xt1540 US 16gb/2gb variant. I've had the links posted elsewhere here for a couple days, but I wanted to give this better exposure so more devs can make use of it.

v2 fixes storage mounting. To get it working you must enable developer options, scroll to select usb configuration, then select mtp. Even if MTP is already selected, you still have to check it again. As soon as you click it your device's storage will automatically remount and the files will be visible from your computer.
v3 enables storage mounting switch via the notification shade. Click the "USB for_____" notification to switch.

I can't think of any reason there would be any other difference. I honestly think that is the only difference at all among any of the variants, which would explain why roms are universal. The radio isn't flashed with an aosp rom, so you're not changing one of the few things that define that variant.
I would bet even the bootloader and all are identical, 100%.
This is how Nexus devices are, and we basically have that, with the one exception of Moto's sparsechunk system images, which are just a split standard system.img....and that's what I've posted above...so, in theory, a diligent user who knows a little bit about this kind of stuff could split that system.img posted above into sparsechunks set to our default maximum sparsechunk size (which is somewhere around 260mb, I believe) and have a working factory image. All you would have to do is replace the radio with each region's own proper radio and it would be universal.
I'm no expert, so I can't guarantee...I'm only theorizing based on my experience as a Nexus tinkerer for many many years. But if you are comfortable with this stuff and want to give it a shot I do have some resources I dug up a few days ago before I sort of chickened out and stopped before I got myself into a situation I didn't know how to get out of.
I've had a chat with the tester last night and v2 should be on its way soon. I just wanted to let you guys know so you can plan your work accordingly. I should have it dumped and uploaded by Wednesday.

I was thinking of maybe flashing the system.img, not through fastboot, but using the command dd if=sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p(whatever) then hopefully i can test it then and report back to you, at least if it works that way then we have some sort of means of installing it

I miss the fast paced Nexus forums so much. I still have my N4, but there isn't as much activity as there once was. This is basically a Nexus, for all intents and purposes, so maybe we can get a few more of those great devs to build for us if we can show them that there's movement happening here.

To the best of my knowledge, the leaker doesn't mind anything resulting from this being posted, as long as the original signed OTA isn't shared publicly, and I'm the only one in possession of that. So everyone may feel free to use anything I've posted here for any project...just please remember to say thanks! Without our friend, none of these files would be available.
Also, in the interest of open information, this is the post I spoke of earlier to split a system.img into sparse chunks, usable by fastboot. The app does run for me using wine on debian 8 jessie, if anyone is interested in that.

So everyone may feel free to use anything I've posted here for any project...just please remember to say thanks! Without our friend, none of these files would be available.
Also, in the interest of open information, this is the post I spoke of earlier to split a system.img into sparse chunks, usable by fastboot. The app does run for me using wine on debian 8 jessie, if anyone is interested in that.

+1 if uploaded! ( I know it can be a bit huge so you may reconsider. ) either way, today has been a crazy busy day I'm just glad to finally be able to sit down and see you guys are progressing amazingly!
I'm getting the second release now. I have some time to work on it tonight, so I'll have the dumps up a little later
Soak test v2 is uploaded and added to the OP. The only thing we don't have dumped is the updated modem.img. We're working on that but I don't have the signed ota for this one, so this part is out of my hands.

I think I will be better off getting a TWRP backup of this soak test and just leaving the TWRP backup of the first soak test because I was playing around with the backup and I corrupted the files , but Ill get this new backup to you asap
OP updated for soak test v3
I also posted v2 a while back...forgot to post here to update everyone on that info, sorry
All v5 stuff is posted in the OP

Does Android 6.0 require a different version of TRWP than CM12.1?

Why do you need Android 6.0 as a base for CM14 (Android 7)?

cause you need to start somewhere... and if i would have a nougat base i would use it xD but this phone doesnt have one... so starting with android6.0 and going forward by adding changes necessary to bopt cm14... then adding fixes...
but firstly i need to know if twrp is fine ( would mean kernel is ok )

The requested recovery.
Is so hard to search? I find it here too!
@voidzero Can you add it to your site?
https://basketbuild.com/devs/Captain_Throwback/One (M8S)/Recovery
The 3.0.2.1 was not starting! Maybe because of so much compression.
Just 3.0.2.0 was booting fine!

I was not being rude, I was asking why you are on a subforum for a phone completely different hardware wise to yours, thus making anything you post about the phone irrelevant on this subforum.

Take care that from MM the firmware don't allow anymore to just use "fastboot boot ..." U need to use htc_fastboot and it have to be flashed in order to use it.
Also the other phones from HTC like M8 is A9 or other do the same, U can see in there specific threads.
I will like to help but mine is also in service (broken lcd).
Respect !

nah it doesnt must be flashed to use it... if you htc_fastboot boot recovery.img then the recovery.img will be loaded to ram and then booted.... not flashing anything ^^
