would someone like to test this on the spirit? i made this for the motion but since it doesn't contain a base rom i thought it might work on spirit. basically it's just the changed and added files required for paranoid port in a flashable zip.
this requires that you have cm10 installed already and just flashes over it. will not work on stock rom.

How safe is this? Dont need any paper weights
 
worse case scenario you have to reinstall cm10 to remove the files added or restore backup. might bootloop worse case.
 
if it boots the buildprop will need to be edited for density and this line changed.
ro.pa.family=pa_mdpi because i believe spirit is hdpi. correct me if i'm wrong.

this has a motion buildprop in it. so if it boots and someone in spirit community wants to edit it or change out to spirit buildprop,and repost. whatever is needed. then thats fine with me.

if it doesn't boot but someone thinks they can make it work. go for it.

it does boot and works great on motion cm10.

i'm positive this can be made to work if it doesn't already but as i don't have a spirit i can't test and edit accordingly so i'm turning it over to spirit community to do with as you please.
 
have you tried this?

IF YOU ARE HAVING BOOTLOOP THEN COPY THESE LIB FILES TO BASE ROM FROM PORT ROM:
Quote:
libandroid_runtime.so
libandroid_servers.so
libmedia_jni.so

copied from the guide i used.
this bootlooped on motion until i copied those lib files.
 
Yea thank you for trying. The status 7 was a permission error i think. So maybe just messing with the updater script will do something. If not a modified kernel will get passed morning call.

I wonder if that's why I had bootloops....probably...I was building from source, used the regular updater-script that's used in CM10...I gotta get a new phone ASAP.
 
I've got a new one I'm testing...what should be the density for this?? 160 is too small but when I change to 240 I lose the phablet style..
 
looks like i left telephony provider and a couple other motion apk's in the system/app folder. try switching them out with spirit files. or maybe upload what you got and let someone else try.
