thanks for that great help

If there are English recoveries out there, just flash one over your existing one. I think that's the best advice you'll get without us knowing what device you have.

htc one x clone
android version 4.1.9
baseband 4.0
kernel 1.28.708.10
build 4.12
custom build htcextention-403-1-ga-7
thanks for a decent reply and i hope this will help you to help me
many thanks

Ah. If it's a clone, that's gonna be harder, as there's no way to know beforehand that a certain custom recovery .img will work. I think you have 3 choices:
Find out from someone else who has your same device
Try flashing a custom recovery designed for another device (such as the real HTC One X)
Stay with what you've got
If you choose #2, the changes could be irrecoverable. That's just part of the deal when you buy a clone, unfortunately.

I will be a much excited as you if we can get more community support for this phone, I have the same one got a few weeks ago... right now a current issue is that I flashed and screen is gone blank, even though it seem to be fine, I just cant see anything on the screen. no ideas what to do or what ROM to flash again or even how to flash when you cant see the screen come on.
It seems that some Russion people made a custom rom for it, but it is still not based on ICS.
Mediatek did not made their source public, so it will be difficult to port ICS to our phone.
So lets hope a developer buys one
Cheers
I have made a custom rom for B63M with dt a2sd support.....but it is gingy......
@Degogar:
Custom rom's can be found here, but you have to register first to download them.
They are also working on a ICS version.

Having some trouble finding a ROM

I am still on the stock 5.0 ROM and was looking to change it up. I have not been on Android since the original EVO 4G so I am a bit lost. I already have root and TWRP recovery on. I am looking for an optimized ROM that is close to stock. I have looked at LiquidSmooth but it looks like that is only 4.4 and I saw xtrasmooth but could not find the download link. Could someone provide a link to good stable ROM that is easy to flash? Also should gapps be flashed immediately after flashing the rom? Thanks in advance.

Every ROM is easy to flash. Just look in the Development or Original Development section, there's plenty to choose from. Also, the first posts usually state whether you need to flash Gapps or not.

I know how to flash, but I am just not sure which ROM to use. So many of them have a bunch of different acronyms in the title that I have absolutely no idea what they mean. Also some of them require you to also flash a kernel or a radio which would complicate things a bit further. Just looking for something that contains everything I need. Also for gapps, my question was if I should be flashing it immediately after flashing the ROM while still in recovery or if I should reboot first then go back into recovery?

Kernel or radio shouldn't be needed anywhere, maybe just in case of F2FS. There are many great ROMs to choose from, just pick one and try it out. Just be sure to read the OP. Also, you won't be able to boot into the system properly if Gapps are missing. Some ROMs have them included, others don't.

Thanks for your help. I have been looking at this rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...v3-0-hammerhead-t2616300/page713#post58172446
In the title it states 4.4.4/5.0.2. What is meant by that? Which one is it? Is it as simple as booting into recovery, wiping all, flashing the ROM, flash gapps, and rebooting?

It's best if you read descriptions of roms at their thread. Also is good to read some feedback and reports by people who allready flash it. But the best way to figure it out, which rom is best for you, is to flash it by yourself.

I do read the descriptions, but there are some things that I don't understand being new. A lot of those threads already assume that you should know what these things mean. I couldn't figure out the liquidsmooth rom since it looks like they stopped development in December and the only gapps I found is for a different version. So I got kind of confused as to what I needed.

Understand that. But if you ask something like you, you will get a lot a different answers which can just confused you a little more. Also, you will get the answers by people who do not have same taste/expectations like you. So, best way is to figure it out by yourself.

I would suggest Cyanogenmod. Its very easy to install and very customizable, its close to stock as you wanted, there are stable versions and nightlies(can be unstable/bring small updates/improvements), cyanogenmod version 11 is based on kitkat,however cyanogenmod 12 stable version is in the works and it is based on lollipop, but there are nightlies out now.

Custom recovery and custom ROM for Samsung Galaxy fame lite (gt-s6790n)

Hi everybody,
I decided to create this new discussion because I have some questions about this device. I have already rooted it, but I have something that I'm not able to do. I tried to find custom recovery for this device, but the only way I found was via Odin. Is any other simpler options? And I was even looking for a custom ROM, because the original one is incredibly slow, but I didn't find anything. Thank you for any advice and help

Flashing most custom recoveries to a samsung phone requires Odin, to be honest it is the simplest method. I know it looks confusing but after a few attempts it becomes seccond nature.
Thank you for this advice. So I think I'll use Odin. What about a custom ROM? I haven't found anything interesting yet

Try all of them, my personal favorite is Paranoid Android
Just try until you find one that you like
OK, thank you for the advice. Does anybody have any advice for a gt-s6790n ROM?
There are no custom ROMs for the Fame Lite...
There is a TWRP recovery for it though. Worked fine on my S6790L

[Completed] Lenovo A820 - Custom ROM

Hi. I would like to have a custom ROM on my Lenovo A820 device. It has stock rom with S147 kernel but there's no CWM for S147. I was looking for a full pack ROM (S135, S150) so I could flash it via SP Flash tool but I found packs for recovery usage only (except the S147 > no CWM). Do you have any idea how to solve this?

Hello, and welcome to XDA! I can't actually find much development for your device on XDA, much of it is outdated, but I would suggest you ask here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/help, just in case someone can point you in the right direction. You will need to register in order to post. The only CWM recovery I can find for your device is two years old and I wouldn't recommend flashing it.
Good luck!
Does it support the S147 kernel? At the moment I can't call to anyone, because the IMEI is missing in the device. Google Play store is missing too and the phone can be only in Chinesse or English. If the CWM recovery that you found support the S147 kernel, then I would be really happy, because I don't know how to move from the S147 to any "normal" ROM with root.
But thank you for the reply!

Hi! Normally, CWM supports any kernel as long as you choose a version that is meant for your phone.
Best wishes

Hi. CWM worked fine year ago for me when it has a S135 kernel, but now the phone always says "FACTORY MODE" even if I flash it by different versions of CWM for A820. It's interesting because there is CWM for all types of kernels for A820 except the S147 so I thought it could be the problem.
Thank you again!

Digiland DL1036 root method?

Good day all!
I was looking for a budget tablet to replace my Amazon Fire 7, and stumbled across the Digiland DL1036. I'm very pleased with the quality for the price. It's fast, clean, and has a great and responsive screen. Anyways...
I did manage to unlock the bootloader. Now I am looking for a successful root method that way I can install a custom ROM should one become available. I am ADB capable, so if someone has been successful with rooting this tablet, I'd love to know your process so I can complete the root. I thought about trying Magisk but I'd rather not use a spoof. Thanks!
To flash a Custom ROM it's NOT required tablet's Android gets rooted before. All what is needed is a suitable Custom Recovery like TWRP.
