Requirements:

* A Brain
* Patience
* Windows XP/7/8
* 7-Zip
* Notepad++
* Bootimg Unpack/Repack Tools for Windows!
* Stock ROM
* And a Little Respect!!


So now Lets Begin...

PORTING For Same SoCs ( Ex: MT6572 to MT6572)

* Replace these from your Stock ROM to the ROM u want to PORT!! Lets Call it "PORT"

FILE LIST FOR REPLACING:

*system/vendor
*system/usr
*system/lib/modules
*system/lib/hw
*system/lib/libncurses.so
*system/etc/firmware
*system/etc/vold.fstab
*system/etc/vold.fstab.nand
*system/etc/bluetooth


For Fixing Problems...

*system/etc/permissions
*system/etc/security
*system/etc/audio
*system/etc/wifi
*system/lib/drm
*system/lib/egl
*system/lib/soundfx


* Now Replace the Stock Boot.img to Port ROM!

* Now Open The Port ROM folder and go to META-INF/google/android and open updater-script in Notepad++

* Do the same for the Stock ROM

* Now In the Port ROM's Updater Script, find a line that starts with this...

format(".......

and only replace the mmcblk0p.. with the stock one!

* Do the same for this line...

mount("...
Example:

This is the PORT one!!!

format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p5", "0", "/system");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p5", "/system");


This is the Stock one!!

format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p3", "/system");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p3", "/system");


Now just Replace the "mmcblk0p3" from STOCK to PORT!!

It should look like this:

format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p3", "0", "/system");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p3", "/system");


DO NOT REPLACE THE WHOLE LINE!

* Now go back to the Folder of Port ROM and You'll see 2 folders & 1 file named

-META-INF
-system
-boot.img


* Now Select these three and Click Right Mouse Button and Click on 7-Zip ->> Add to Archive

* Now a dialouge box should appear!

* Configure the Format like This:

Archive format: ZIP

Compression Level : Normal

Compression Method: Deflate

Dictoioany Size: 32k

Word Size 32


* Now Start Zipping and Push the ZIP to your Memory Card

* Go to Recovery >> Install ZIP & Wipe Data

Finished!!

Now was that so hard?? Its a Really Easy thing to d0!!
