Hi everyone
I bought lenovo legion duel a month ago, I was surprised to find out there is no custom roms available for this phone.
I am not a pro developer i did build few roms so i will need other developers help who are interested into bringing custom rom to lenovo legion duel.
There is no device tree, i did manage to get the kernel source and i have it on my github, If any devs willing to work with me please do pm me.
I am not responsible for any damage caused please backup before testing.
Port twrp 3.6.9-2 i need testers to test it since my phone is not rooted for now as its my main device.
Thanks to @Augustoandro for the guide which I followed.
Create twrp without source
Download
twrp-3.6.2_9-0-moba
Kernel Source
https://github.com/Syn7ax3rror/android_kernel_lenovo_moba
Where is the device tree & kernel source?
@notnoelchannel ,
kernel source is here and I believe there was reference when glancing through a repack of the kernel of the device tree being very similar if not the same to zippo (Z6 pro).

There is no device tree yet but kernel source is on my GitHub https://github.com/Syn7ax3rror/android_kernel_lenovo_moba
If anyone know how to create the Device tree or can guide me please pm me so I can build custom ROM for our device.

I followed this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-porting-twrp-without-source.3843473/
I think you should repost this in development instead of here as news discussions and guides. It might get more attention for those willing to test it.

I don't have this device, but the following 2 scripts/tools might help generate a barebones device tree with the basic information to help you get started.
I have used to generate TWRP device trees

but not

Here's the various device/vendor repos generated from his script

If you search for Lenovo, you will see some samples.

Thanks bro I really appreciate your help
I will check it out
Tested with the CN model, unfortunately the phone would stuck on first screen with TWRP flashed to recovery partition.
I know this will probably sound rude but did you test it yourself? I mean there's no screenshots nor guides to flash it on the device, seems to be a really strange release imho.

No hurries, and I wasn't trying to blame you for that issue. Things like this happens in development, and maybe I didn't flash it correctly. Anyway, it'll be most helpful for you to update OP to include a guide.

I will do that later today it's 3 am over here.
Lenovo is doing a really really bad job at not providing at least security patches let alone new android version, We are stuck at A11, People with way older devices got A13.
I will definitely look into it as soon as I finish my exams.
Thread locked at author's request, as this project is now discontinued.

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.

Hello
Do you know DeckerSu ?
He have developped AlcatelFlasher, a software that can read/write any partition on Idol3.
So, with this app, you can flash TWRP on Idol3.
Look at here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/development/tool-sahara-firehose-test-alcatel-t3454855
But now, he make a version for Idol4 (6055) and a TWRP recovery for this one !!!!
Look at here: http://www.decker.su/2016/09/alcatel-idol-4-6055k-twrp-recovery.html
But nobody are interesting on his work so he don't share it.
Please, look at his work and comment it if you want this amazing work.
DeckerSu will be very happy to your interest.
Thanks for him
Greeting to Decker su
Always Great Work

Even if google translate is the worse translater in the world, I'm pretty sure you can manage with this non understanding english...
Ready the same decision as a binary recovery_twrp_3.0.2-0-decker.img for Idol 4 and "Murzilki" (walk-through) his flash - I decided not to spread. If the topic you are interested in at the moment, you can:
Try self-assemble TWRP from me lined wood -based repository OmniROM (the repo the init -u https://github.com/omnirom/android.git -b android-6/0), good manual on TWRP recovery assembly for the Qualcomm platform from source on the Internet abound. Plus the opportunity to learn something - it's always good.
Follow the development of the project Sahara & Firehose the Test , and perhaps even to support him and help him grow to full flasher for devices based on Qualcomm, well, or as an alternative - to find their way to fill in the recovery unit.

This is what he said. I'll try to build a working vesrion of TWRP, if the guide is correct.

Hi! At this moment Sahara & Firehose Test Tool app officially support only Idol 3 6039 and Idol 3 6045. I have Idol 4 6055 in my own, and already add it's support to app, but not released this version yet. I plan to add Idol 4 6055k later, if users will interested in this project and make some donations. Work on this was really hard and took more than a month of hard work. It continuing now, but new releases will be available in public after i collect some donate. It all depends on the users themselves. This is free, but project need their support.
If you interested in donate, you can use this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/dona....php?u=5660972 . Donation is completely voluntary initiative. If you wanna support project - make it, if don't - no additional actions required.

Hi,

Thanks. I wonder if there's not a difference in SIM numbers too. I think mine has only one SIM slot.
I tried to install the drivers on Windows 7, but it fails to recognize my phone when I plug it to my PC.
Mine is 6055u (US maybe)
Has he provided the tools to root this phone as well?
Thank you for starting the freedom of our idol 4. I know this phone has massive potential. I absolutely love it and will love it more rooted.
Are the required tools available yet? @DeckerSU

When I went there I didn't see anything though. I did however use Russian translator so perhaps the translator was wrong????
Is there going to be a flash tool?
I have the 6055u and i need root to enable the hospot.
Guys, if you want to increase the chance to see root, custom recovery and custom roms for the 6055, maybe you can show your interest to @DeckerSU, or even better, donate to him. It's easy to to donate through PayPal from XDA.
/////IMPORTANT READ MEH PLZ\\\\\
I have given up.
There, I said it.
Stop asking for builds.
I tried major best but mah best ain't good enough...
However not all hope is gone!
Here are two other threads of people working on lineage is 13/14 and also ressurection remix to the j3 that have nothing to do with me:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...geos-13-samsung-galaxy-j3-2016-t3621950/page1
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...m-resurrection-remix-mm-v5-7-4-t3635573/page1
So, as you may know, Cyanogen mod is has been killed after copyright issues with CyanogenmodInc. However, it has been replaced with LineageOS. This thread is for any information on lineage OS for any models of the Samsung galaxy j3. Feel free to add any info you know!
So far, we do know that there probably will be one as it says so on geek warning's list of supported devices, which is all good news. I will try to see if I can port one from some device that already has it, and I will update you on that, but it might not work.

I found another website saying that the galaxy j3 will be supported! So I really hope it will happen! Also, I really hope that they make one for the j320fn, as that's the one I have!
Progress Update:
I cant find any device with the SC9830A chipset that has lineage os supported, which just makes porting it harder,as that is the one the J320FN has. I will try to use an application called 'android kitchen'. Meanwhile, please comment any devices that have the SC9830C chipset,as it would really help me out with porting this!
Speak to ya soon!
Progress Update 2:
Hi guys! I have been working on a port for lineage OS for the SM-J320FN. However, I have one big issue. The stock ROM I have downloaded is a .tar.md5 file, so I can't use it in the same way as a flashable zip. I searched all over the place, but I can't find a stock ROM for this device. Here is where you guys come in!
IF ANYONE KNOWS WHERE I CAN INSTALL, OR CAN MAKE A FLASHABLE ZIP FILE OF THE STOCK ROM FOR THE SAMSUNG GALAXY J320F/J320FN, PLEASE PROVIDE ME WITH A LINK/DOWNLOAD, as if you want this port to happen, a flashable zip stock ROM is required.
Please help me out, to bring us one step closer to creating the first ever stable custom ROM for the j3!
Thanks, speak to ya soon!
Progress update 3:
Hi guys!
I Ported a lineage os unofficial rom from the Samsung S5 to the j3 by deodexing my stock rom of the j3 and porting it through android kitchen. I the placed it on my phone as card, booted into recovery ( TWRP), wiped Dalvik Cache, Cache, Data and internal storage. Then I tried to flash the .zip.
Straight away, it came up with an error:
Could not find META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary. I took the sd card out and checked the rom on my pic. Strangely, I did find that exact file in the correct place in the rom, and it wasn't corrupted. Hmmmm...
Any ideas on what the issue might be? If you have any ideas, please comment them!
Thanks!
Speak to ya soon!

Were these models you couldn't unlock? Us997 latest TWRP is 3.2.x it does have orangefox but it doesn't say what sources they use. What's the biggest difference between TWRP and this? Also the v20/g5 are pretty close to this, I think there were some orphaned unlockable v20s at least. Either way protects like this are neat and I appreciate the effort even if it doesn't help me. Also does it have kdzwriter like the TWRP builds?
How about for the H870DSU? Is it available?

It would be great to see the device added to list of supported devices. Also, create a thread here in development so that people can easily find it.
