Can we flash a branded phone with an unbranded ROM ? - General Questions and Answers

Hello !
This is just to clarify the situation.
I know the root is non permanent and we can't flash with custom Roms, but with an official ?
I want to take a phone with my operator (Vodafone France = SFR), and they used to make a disaster in their ROM.
I know what is a goldcard, is thos works ?
Thanks for the answer !

Yes you can by means of a goldcard

Thanks for the answer.
Ok I see, is that the same thing to do for the original HTC Desire ?
Any tutorial on the net maybe ?

Have a look here:

Thanks, I am gonna try this.
Is there a list of Roms we can flash on a branded phone ?
If not, we should create it !

I tried this one on my HTC DHD and it fail with "error 131" "ID client..."
Tatou26 do you try?
Have you an explication or response for the fail?
Thanks.

I did not try yet, I am waiting for feedbacks .

No, as I still can't find enough reason to take the risk. And I am waiting for a more complete guide/tutorial in fact.

[rom] HZT S810 - dual sim - MIUI

hi guy!
i bought 5 days ago a china-phone dualsim HZT S810.
it's a good phone but is very difficult to find custom rom. i have alredy rooted my phone and i also installed CW recovery.
at the moment this phone has a Cyanogen rom. I'd like to install a MIUI rom; anybody can help me to do it?
if someone got this phone and know any hack or mod, contact me please!
thanks to all!
Nobody can help me? Someone that got this phone? Thanks!
Sent from my T9199+ using XDA App
help! me please!!!!
is possible to install flash player into a deviece not certified from adobe?
If you are looking for a MIUI rom your best bet is to go to the miui site. My best advise would be to search the internet as most roms are not for China based dual Sim phones.
Thank you! I've just try to send a note on miui facebook page!
But... for flash player? Any solution?

I would check the MIUI site as no development for those roms are done here due to GPL violations. All the roms here are only translations

Get ahold of the OEM and have them release the kernel source code and see what they say
hold the oem
can u give me a tip for how to do that ? should i ask the kernel via the terminal ?
thanks for ur interest...
Yoann
To hold the OEM..
Do u have a tip for holding the oem of a phone ? should i do that via the terminal ? do u know a website with good tutorial for that kind of things
thx for ur answer....
yoann
Who makes the phone? They are the only ones that can release the source code for the kernel. And under the GPL they have to release it.
looking for the brand !!
So we can't extract the source code by ourselves ? but the problem is that i don't know who makes this phone, anyone knows that ? here is a link of the phone in a e-shop : android-sale.com/touch-s810-android-phone-4-3-inch-touch-screen-3g-dual-sim-wifi-gps.html i just know it run a mtk6573 processor... anyone have more infos about this product ?
Happy new year @Zelendel and @all peoples on this forum !
No you can't only the OEM can release the source code for the kernel.
and a backup ?
and is it possible to make a backup of the rom before trying other one ?
S810 original firmware find...
I finally find the original firmware of this phone if someone needs it i can send of course ! Just send me ur email in pvt and i will send u a link via dropbox Can someone have a look on it to tell if we can use others rom or simply root it ?
thx all,
Thanks a lot
I will tray it this weekend.
Share our experiences
Hello guys,
I spent a lot of time searching original firmware for the s810 and i think now can be the start of many things on this device...
Something that would be nice is to write on this "thread" all the things we do on this device (installation, rooting and improving)
I will try during the day to find a place to host the original firmware...
Ps: A hint from russian forum : Cyanogenmod rom works for this device ! cool !!
so i wait ur comments....
