Done a little research and I think I found the issue of the sim card.. It's not go do with the baseband (well kind of..) But more with the actual ROM. The TCL M2M does not have the same bands as the Umi Emax does..https://www.frequencycheck.com/c ... -dual-sim/countries
The M2M does not support UMTS. So we need to find a way to incorporate that into the ROM.
Just to let you know that the other family bought 4 Elephones P8000 instead of UMI because the Emax was suposed to have an update to Lollipop long ago and never did. On the other hand, this Emax also had a serious touchscreen issue from the beginning that comes and goes every few days and has never been properly solved by Powerplanetonline store and owner is very unhappy with this phone.
guys I found that the Alcatel flash plus is identical to our own devices, with exception of the display resolution, we could try the rom available for this device http://www.gsmarena.com/alcatel_flash_plus-7190.php
the display resolution is not important in a port, I have personally made many ported to MT6582, to change the resolution just change the dpi in build.prop
Well, when porting, you have to merge the ramdisk of the porting ROM with the kernel of the base ROM. However, that's not possible to merge the elements of a KitKat ROM with a lollipop one. Do you know what 'dpi' means?
That's a TCL M2M ROM, not something that's created for the eMAX.
Check this post. That would be even easier to place the camera driver into the system as a module than using a completely incompatible (Alcatel) ROM as a base. With the proper camera driver this TCL M2M ROM would be complete.
what you are saying has nothing to do. the problem is finding a modem working with our emax for lollipop, for the cam just insert the drivers in the kernel. The cam is probably the same as the TCL. The dpi has nothing to do in a port.
