Keep always in mind that onto Oreo something is different (compared to the previous Android versions).
For example : there are "default.prop" and "prop.default".

Good luck

Any news ???

Hi Cleopatra,

I have phone with MTK6735m chip and could unlock the bootloader but could not root the phone. When I try to flash the TWRP rom via SP Flash tool it is unsucessful.

I did flash the twrp rom via "fastboot flash recovery "location:\recovery.img" and it seem flashed with success. But the phone turn-on and stuck in the logo its all.

I try to boot in recovery and it is nothing also stuck with the logo only.

I think that maybe the problem about the recovery image file that there are something wrong. Can you help me to look its and cook for the me right TWRP ROM for my device? I can send to you the original file of Recovery and scatter file.

Thanks.

Hi everyone,

I have two OFFICIAL builds for my device:
- the first one, based on 3.10.65+ kernel, with Lollipop 5.1 and
- the second one, 3.18.35+ kernel, with Nougat 7.0

1. The first build, has the bootloader locked, and in FastBoot, the volume-UP button doesn't work (for confirming the fastboot oem unlock). So, it cannot be unlocked for further mods.
   
2. The second build can be unlocked (the bootloader) - and thus custom ROMs can be booted.
   

I want to port some ROMs with 3.10.65+ (because all ROMs with 3.18.35+ have some problems on my chipset, MTK6753: gps problems).
I have changed the partition names (in boot.img), and TWRP works great in flashing the new build (3.10.65+), but when booting, it stucks at logo.

Porting ROMs with the same kernel (3.18.35+) works great.
Porting ROMs with the 3.10.65+, even after changing the fstab, kernel (from stock 3.10.65+ boot.img) + partition layouts, cannot be booted. In addition, in the second case, I have changed from boot.img: - all occurrences of
/dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc0/... with
/dev/block/platform/mtk-msdc0/11230000-msdc0/... (fstab, .rc files, update-script, etc.) according with the newer partition layout.

I have tried just to do this with my stock official 5.1 3.10.65+ ROM. It doesn't work (with the preloader+lk.bin unlocked from 3.18)

The question is: Is it possible to have the second build flashed (which has another preloader + lk.bin) from 3.18.35+ - whos bootloader can be unlocked - , and then, using the files from the first build to port a ROM with kernel 3.10.65+ ? Or I am trying the "impossible" ?

In fact, I am not mixing "kernels" regarding boot.img. I am "mixing" a preloader+lk.bin (from one build, which runs Nougat, on 3.18.35+ kernel) with boot.img+system (based on 3.10.65+)
Thank you!

Hello,

In my view, you are trying the "impossible"  

Great work!

2) Unzip Carliv.zip and click on carliv.bat ... please see the next screenshot :

4) Type R (and press enter), then type 1 (and press enter) ... please see the next screenshot :



5) Type 1 (Unpack image) and press enter ... and see what happens ... please see the next two screenshots :

 

6) Now you can see the next message : "Your image is unpacked in recovery folder". Open the "recovery" folder (inside Carliv unzipped folder) and you will can see with your own eyes the "ramdisk" folder and the other 10 files ... please see the next screenshot :



7) And this is the content of the "ramdisk" folder (of my unpacked stock recovery) ... please see the next screenshot :



8) Create a folder on your desktop and rename it "stock" ... then copy the entire content of "recovery" folder (the "ramdisk" folder and the other 10 files) and paste them into the folder just created on your desktop (stock folder).
9) Delete your stock recovery.img from "recovery-resources" folder (inside Carliv unzipped folder).
10) Delete all files from the "recovery" folder (inside Carliv unzipped folder).
11) Copy the custom recovery.img (the TWRP that you want to port for your device) and paste it into "recovery-resources" folder.
12) Now repeat the steps 3, 4 and 5 for the custom recovery.img.
13) Create another folder on your desktop and rename it "port" ... then copy the entire content of "recovery" folder (the "ramdisk" folder and the other 10 files) and paste them into the "port" folder.
14) Delete all files (unpacked custom recovery.img) from the "recovery" folder (inside Carliv unzipped folder).
15) DO NOT DELETE the custom recovery.img from "recovery-resources" folder.
16) Open simultaneously the stock folder and the port folder (on your desktop) ... please see the next screenshot :



17) Copy the "recovery.img-kernel" and "recovery.img-kernel_offset" from stock folder ... and paste/overwrite them into port folder. Please see the next screenshot :



18) Open simultaneously the "ramdisk" folder in both stock folder & port folder ... please see the next screenshot :



19) Copy the "fstab" (in my case "fstab.mt6752"), the "meta_init.modem.rc", the "meta_init.project.rc", the "meta_init.rc" and the "ueventd.rc" from stock folder ... and paste/overwrite them into port folder. Please see the next screenshot :



20) You should be able to see the port folder ("ramdisk" folder) like in the next screenshot :



21) Now copy the "ramdisk" folder and the other 10 files from port folder (on your desktop) ... and paste them into "recovery" folder (inside Carliv unzipped folder). Then type 2 (Repack image) and press enter. Please see the next screenshot :



22) "Your new image was repacked as recovery-date-time.img. You can find it in [output] folder". Open "output" folder (inside Carliv unzipped folder) ... and you will find your TWRP ported img. Please see the next screenshot :



23) Now copy the "recovery-date-time.img" from "output" folder and paste it into a new folder on your desktop. Then, rename your ported twrp img like "recovery.img". Copy the scatter file of your stock rom and paste it into the new folder on your desktop (together your ported recovery img). Then, flash it with SP Flash Tool. Please see the next screenshots :

 

24) Restart your phone in recovery mode ... and see what happens. Please see the next screenshot :
