Building a new ROM for the Optimus V. Got a ROM built, but I would like to test before flashing to device. I've got AVD and when I set it up using the system.img it will not load. I notice I cannot select abiearm-v6 (or Neon) and wonder if that is the issue. I've scoured Google to no avail. If any of you guys out there have a link to a tutorial or some hints to get me going in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks in advanced!

Alrighty, so I'm attempting to port something for the first time here, and I've managed to get into the System.img with no visible setbacks... but now that I'm messing with the Boot_signed.img, I'm running into some difficulty.
So here are some of my bigger questions:
1) Ramdisk. Merged. Solved.
2) Kernel. Located. Solved.
3) Libs. Copied and renamed. Solved.
4) Build new boot.img with ramdisk and kernel. NOT solved.
Anyone that is willing to lend some guidance here, it would be really appreciated. I've got GMichaelow, the developer of Uber-Z helping me, but I feel bad bothering him so much. Besides, anyone that helps out will get to enjoy the surprise, as well as bring a new rom into the community, and who knows, maybe even a new Dev!
Thank you for your time.
Edit: At this point, I only need to know how to build the boot.img. Google is not helping search-wise... Is there even a simple way to do this?
I've put up my code for reference. Hope it helps.

Greetings,
I've just begun to delve into Android Development and I've begun to make my own ROM. My main problem is that my computer runs on 32-bit and I need a 64-bit computer in order to build my ROM and to make sure all features are working. I was wondering if any more experienced devs or anyone else would be willing to help build the ROM and help me test features? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

One option is VirtualBox. *Virtualization technology has to be available and activated for this to work. *Here's a link about virtualbox and VT.
Here is a good link for building a ROM.
If this info is not useful maybe someone else has a better suggestion.
Ok I'll try it out.

I would love to begin working on cm11 for the VS985! I have some android experience and used to be active here as Backwards1979 but I am completely locked out of that account. I used to work with visableck on the Samsung Galaxy stellar.
I just need to know where to begin to port the cm11 to VS985. Any help or push in the right direction would be greatly appreciated!

It's already been ported to the VS985 man. Posted yesterday:

Great to see another dev on here for the VS985 though! If you ever need help with anything let me know. I'm pretty Android and Linux proficient and I'm not afraid to do some low-level modifications to my precious G3! Adb work and leveling LAF to do fastboot work is no problem and I've even had success compiling images from source and making slight modifications to allow porting to similar variants. I'll be glad to test anything you need as well! Best of luck!
Thank you! I have been looking since bump hit and I have not been able to find it!
That includes last night and today... I don't want anyone to think that I just wanted a handout and haven't done any of my research.
I've got a working development set-up and have compiled the Lollipop files and kernel for the vk815 with it. I've installed the SDK but using the 'emulator' is less than easy. I could use help with creating a vk815 config so I can bounce my outputs against it. I would also like to compile TWRP and run that through the 'emulator'. The pre-compilation for that isn't going well and I need some hand holding. Once I'm finished, I'll be happy to share but I really need some help with this last half of the project.
Thanks,
Jim

Yeah I can't help you with that one. It's over my pay grade but I do want to say thank you and applaud you for this. I've been really surprised no one has stepped up to the plate for this. Thanks for this
Any progress on this?
Hi guys, I'm a new one here at the N7 forum, so I was wondering if have a chance of porting remix OS to the N7?? Some Dev want to try?? well I'm studying software engineering and maybe this can be a project, let me know what you guys think
PS: sorry about my English, still studying it[emoji14]

I gave my hand at attempting to port it when it came out but I'm not sure if I was doing something wrong as I could get the ROM to boot up to the boot animation, but the OS itself would not start the UI. I used some of the tutorials on here to attempt porting, but most of the tutorials are for 4.1 and below, so I'm not sure if I was missing something like SELinux contexts on files or something. That said, if you can get further porting it I'd be happy to test, been using PhoenixOS but would love to try RemixOS on my tablet.
