SoC
MT8125/MT8389 is almost the same as the MT6589. The Wi-Fi version is equipped with the MT8125, while the 3G version is equipped with the MT8389. The kernel source code for MT8125/MT8389 is the same as that of MT6589.

How to enter flash mode
+ + -> Select Fastboot
Installation
Using pmbootstrap
Work in progress.
- download latest release
- build latest kernel
- unpack
boot.img - replace kernel with latest kernel
- replace busybox with busybox-static and remove bin (symlink), mv usr/bin bin (hack)
- replace around
/bin/busybox --install -sin/initwith:
export PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin /bin/busybox --install -s chmod +x /lib/ld-musl-armhf.so.1 /bin/* /sbin/* /usr/bin/* /usr/sbin/* rm usr/bin mv bin usr/bin /usr/bin/busybox ln -s usr/bin bin /bin/busybox --install -s /bin/busybox-extras --install -s
(CarlivImageKitchen seems to strip the execution permissions from /lib!?)
- repack_mtk
fastboot flash boot boot.img- show login prompt
boot.img packed by pmbootstrap seems to be broken...
Kernel
The official source code (JellyBean, KitKat, Raw archive ) is fake/broken, and didn't boot after building, (GPL violation XD), so mainline and near downstream forked from aquaris-5 are the targets. You can find out about porting status here.
U-Boot
Boots. But the port is incomplete. You can check the progress of the port here.
Development is stopped until the kernel exceeds the size of the boot partition.
