According to several sources, 918A, N, M are the same hardware, D has dual sim support, but the roms should work. Just make sure you run a backup of your actual setup before any tryout
On my side, i'm about to try a 918d rom, i'll let you know how it goes.

Alcatel ot-890d custom rom request

Hello friends,
This is my first post. I am a newbie and I am not too familiar with many technical details. I rooted my phone (cheap alcatel ot-890d) recently and want to overclock it from 420Mhz to 600Mhz . I came to know that in order to be able to overclock, a custom kernel is required before which flash recovery should be present. Now no matter how bad the phone is, I dont want to brick it. I wanted it know if flashing a custom recovery from ROM manager has a chance of bricking the phone or if it is unique for each phone. I downloaded Kernel manager only to find put that there are no compatible kernels (on clicking load kernel list ) Moreover I don't think that there are any custom ROMs for this phone.
Please help me......
I will be really grateful,
Thank you

if you root the phone (use motochopper if you havent already) you can remove chinese apps and edit build.prop to adjust gps

I don't think you can find a 'universal' ROM because every device has different hardware and stuff. What you can do is find a device with specifications similar to yours (screen resolution, CPU etc) and then port a ROM from that device to yours. There are many good guides here that tell you how to do that.
try cyanogenmod they are pretty universal at this point
Anyone here using P970 with Avatar ROM?

A custom rom must be created / ported specilly for your specific device. It must be compatible / fitted for with ALL of your phone's components.
so rom like this one here

won't be compatible with my phone ?

You can't install it without further modifications I suppose. I haven't found any confirmed to work custom roms for your phone Have you already rooted your device and installed a custom recovery?
what further modification are we talking about here?
i didn't rooted nether installed any thing

I found this link for the Afterlife 6.0 rom --> CLICK ME
Your phone is listed as "needs to be ported". The point is that there are just some poor informations from different blogs but not a single thread in a forum which provides any reliable informations.
There are many tuts on XDA on how to port a rom. One of the main issues is that cheap chipset that these devices use. They never release the kernel source for the device so porting at best is what you get and most of the time there are issues that cant be fixed
any easy tutorial on how to port a rom
and porting a rom will that Ensures that dual sim will work and the 3G ?

It isn't a popular devices, hence less development. You're more than welcome to learn how to make a ROM and give it a go.

There are two at the moment, how could you miss them?
If you like testing and playing with a rom, there is an AOSP version, however, not final and has some bugs.
Otherwise there is one other custom rom based on stock Oreo. I recommend this one as it's the closest one to stock only being de-bloated, pre rooted and also has TWRP custom recovery, ready to use.
