[Please help] CUSTOM RECOVERY FOR MI-A500S
[Please help] CUSTOM RECOVERY FOR MI-A500S
(08-01-2019, 07:59 AM)ryfoz Hello boss(es) I am back on this project and I need a working Custom recovery to flash Custom ROM
Noe where Xenon helped me to get to the last time was a working 3.0.0 TWRP but the internal storage isn't showing and he made mention of something about my scatter file not leaving enough room for a working recovery to work above 10MB
My stock recovery is 7.28MB
Pls any new method to port one? Be it philz or cwm, or twrp
My device is lollipop and rooted

oh good, so you can copy your custom rom zip to sdcard and flash from sdcard
(09-01-2019, 10:20 PM)ryfoz Okay, nice but now the ROM I want to port wasn't built for my device but for a similar device with same Chipset and kernel
Now I want to replace the files but from YouTube tutorials they keep talking about META-inf which I don't have. What I have is a full STOCK ROM and the PORT ROM.zip
I have Assayed Kitchen, Android Image Kitchen, MTK THAI DEVELOPER, and Carliv kitchen
How do I use them to produce META-inf for my device before using the mount points inside of it for the PORT ROM
pls help and I would be very grateful
But I was think if the META-inf is produced when packing images as zip then perhaps if I first do a TWRP backup in zip
Then.extract it afterwards then I can get META-inf as part of the zip file and it will be compatible for my device
But what I don't understand is how can I create that nandroid backup without my internal storage and system not mountable?
(10-01-2019, 12:13 PM)freshtyt META-inf is always in custom rom flashable zips, the port rom you have there should contain this as its a custom rom
this topic should be on a different thread btw
(10-01-2019, 10:23 PM)ryfoz I guess you didn't read my post carefully. When porting I have to come files from META-inf/com/google/android/updater-script of STOCK to PORTrefer to https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-20497.html
