            REPLACING FILES FROM STOCK TO PORT

*Under system/lib copy the following

 -libaudio.primary.default.so

 -libMali.so

     

Copy these if your camera shows greenish or doesnt work at all.

 -libcamera.custom.so

 -libdpframework.so

 -libfeatureio.so

 -libjpeg.so   

 and paste in system/lib of port rom

*Under system/hw copy hwcomposer.mt65xx.so and paste in port rom.

STEP 10

Changing mount points.

In changing mount points you need to have your Stock META-INF, but if u dont then use Mtk Droid Tools.

Locate block maps and change the mount points of system and data respectively.

Find the line that looks like this

mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p7", "/data");

mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p5", "/system");

This means data is mounted at 7 and system at 5.

so using Mtk Droid Tools check the mount point of your data and system and change respectively.

ENJOY your ROM... if you experience any bug lemme know with the comment section and i will make a bug fixin guide.
