Hi there
The first thing you have to do before even start to look at how you want your mobile to look like is to Root it. By Rooting it you'll open up heaven's gate's in the Android world such as installing custom Roms, top notch apps, control your mobile and not your mobile control you, etc.
You really want to have a look at this link especially at what MoH21 comments and teaches for he is showing you how to Root your mobile. I cannot stress enough for you to read and read and read very well until you're sure of what you're doing.
Here's the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1727636
After that you can then start looking for proper custom Roms for your mobile and do the next steps like *Bootloader Unlock *CWM Install
...all of them are important and sometimes depending on which method of Root you choose (or have available really) the CWM comes included...
TIP: search in the Forum for a method to see if your Bootloader is locked or unlocked as that's crucial to know.
*for you to Google search.
Don't forget to thank me and MoH21 also for his tutorial

Yes you can!
CyanogenMod 7.1 & MIUI ROM.
Search in Google: "android for jet"
(I can't post direct links thanks to XDA < 10 posts limit)
Your first hit should be from code dot google dot com, that's the one you're looking for.
It has plenty of videos explaining what it does and how to flash it.
Thanks Buddy for the quick reply. I'll look into it.

Got a QiKU 360 N4, tutorial to unlock bootloader is in chinese. Halp!

I hope this is the right thread.
Hello bois, I got a QiKU 360 N4 which is a pretty sick phone for the money I paid it.
It came out recently on the chinese market and its bootloader is locked.
I googled a bit and found some tutorials tho unlock the bootloader and install TWRP, because somebody compiled that already! Awesome, right?
Too bad are in chinese, yeah.
Google translate doesn't help that much, it is incomprehensible, and even if it did help: I am required to sign up to the chinese forum to read the whole tutorial (which requires me to understand how to sign up) and from what I understand the procedure makes use of a software running on windows to enter the bootloader and such software is in chinese only!
So I am looking for some kind soul who could translate the procedure and, if possible, reupload the necessary files somewhere so people like me wouldn't have to sign up to the linked chinese forum to get them.
In exchange I can offer some tips on health and fitness for I have a master in sports sciences. Or, I could offer you a beer?
P.S. sadly xda does not allow me to post links, can link in private... I guess.

I've sent you a message however I don't think you'll manage without knowing chinese
The tool they use is to unlock the bootloader and it's a proprietary tool.

I'm sorry but I did not have time yesterday. I don't have access to a proper computer so I am using my raspberry pi to do all this. Since it does not have a photo editor I am working on a google slide document that will be accessible by link. I'll post it here as fast as I am done

Here is how far I have come. I assume you have to download a bunch but at least the company gives you information. I've heard numerous people who buy Chinese phones and are stuck with whatever software they offer.
Yeah there is no chance to write a custom rom because the kernel source is never being given by Mediatek.
However having the ability to backup and play around with the stock firmware is great.

True, I like how it has become a meme that "I'll die before mtk releases their sources".
Any more news on this? Loving my N4 so far, but would like to install TWRP and gapps, but not quite sure how. Have read somewhere that Kingroot has worked on other Qiku/360 phones but haven't got that far myself. Any chance you could send me that link to me too, your googling skills are clearly far superior to my own!
Hi.
I wiped my data from the stock recovery and now i am stuck at boot logo.I don't know how that happened.but i think i have to flash stock firmware which i cant find anywhere.
Qiku forum is unresponsive and there is no other place with info of this rare phone.
Help me out here please
help me please! I.want to unlock my QIKU N4S, but i can not download from chinese forum. thank you a lot!
Bootloader unlock - HERE
Found some ROM's also .... Althought, You'll Need TAMPERMONKEY and Baidu Download Script for Tampermoney
ROM'S - HERE and other Tools + rom's HERE
There is a whole Qiku N4 forum but it's in chinese .... didnt have time to bother with it,
since it requires to be registered ...
And, as bonus ...
I found Russian modified ROM's ....
HERE for HW version A01
and
HERE for HW version M02
TWRP Recovery - HERE
Check HW version of your phone, if you want to flash roms and BEFORE screwing it up.
Hope that's enough for now ....
p.s. Be carefull what are you doing and flashing into phone. Links I posted are from third party sources,
people reported they are working, but all you do - you do on your own responsibility.

Hello Alex,
Those links are sadly down.
Do you know any other link to a stock N4 image and scatter file that I could use to factory-reset a pattern-locked N4 ? I got my hands on a discarded one, but the factory reset option in recovery mode requires that cloud account be first deleted, which I can't to because of the pattern lock.
Thanks !
EDIT :
Sorry, I spoke too fast. I gave another try and the links are up, though in chinese. I'll try to get what I can. Thank you !
I am Chinese

Is the cell phone on your hand 360n4? This cell phone has two versions of 360n4 and 360n4s
Yes, it a 360N4, not a 360N4S.
What I'm trying to do is follow that howto : http://www.cnroms.com/360-n4-061-unlock-bootloader-install-twrp-recovery.html to downgrade it, then factory reset it and install TWRP.
However, I can't read chinese (can't even tell whether it's cantonese or mandarin). Google Translate helps, but most link seem to be broken, and when they're not, the download speed is abysmally slow (several days…).
Is there any way you could help me ? Maybe get the needed files and reupload them somewhere faster ?
I see

[Completed] How to root an android device and get super su

Hi guys I know this is a very simple post but since I'm new to forums I thought I would just start with this.
So let's get straight to the point you will only need to download two apps to get root access and have ultimate control over your Android device these apps are all you need:
•Root all devices = I'm a new user and can't post links so just download in play store.
•Supersu =
I'm a new user and can't post links so just download in play store.
•And that's it all you need and if you guys want to help me code a exposed module contact me @0823254209 on whatsapp thank you.

rooting any android device will be different than rooting a certain device. every device differs, and they are made by different manufacturers. rooting a nexus will be different then rooting any samsung, for example.

Where do I learn about rooting on these forums?

PROBLEM:
1. I need to find a forum where I can learn about rooting in a general way, not just a phone specific way. There are too many overlapping problems with my phone and issues that I am too undereducated to pinpoint. I thought learning how to root and flash stock-roms might be the best place to start. Book references or YouTube channels would also be wonderful.
2. I would also like to be pointed in the direction of what the problem might actually be if I am out in left field, and where to find that on this site as well.
HERE'S SOME OF WHAT I WANT TO LEARN IN THE FORUMS:
What is the difference between Rooting and Unlocking the Bootloader? Are they the same thing?
Will re-locking the bootloader resolve the certification issue like I read?
How do I lock the bootloader again?
Can you fix UI crashes by re-flashing a phone's stock ROM?
How is a Factory reset different from a fresh stock-rom flash?
If factory reset doesn't stop the UI Crashes, will re-flashing the stock rom have a different effect?
Etc.
DETAILS:
I purchased a Razer 2 Phone and unlocked the bootloader but it was a long time ago and I don't remember what I did. I did some research and it looks like when I did that my Google Play Store lost its certification. I think that it is causing app bugs and failures but I am not sure because the phone's UI sytem, bluetooth and Wi-fi have been crashing before I tampered with anything when I first bought the phone online. Bluetooth and Wi-fi don't stay on and toggle themselves off. There is also no Bluetooth or Wi-Fi address in the system info. It makes me think that my Door Dash app bugs might be more than one thing.
I work for Door Dash and it's my main income so I need my app to work and I think that the bad certification is causing problems with my Door Dash App. But the Razer also needs a software repair.

Welcome to XDA,
I would recommend this>
1. Type your desired device for rooting
2. Hit search
3. Once located your device, head to Upgrading and Modifying sub section
4. Be prepared to read a loooot!
5. Practice in your device (try not to brick it)
6. Done!
For this questions there is no general rule you can apply, it will always depend on the device you try to root

Is there Android higher Android ROMs on Samsung Galaxy Young S6310?

That's my question basically.... I REALLY want a newer android than Lollipop (the highest android mod I found here). Is there? I found this webpage https://tweakdroid.com/lineage/samsung-galaxy-young-gt-s6310-royss/ that says it's possible, but they don't have the ROM available, so I'm skeptical. I really want a ROM like that to exist because I want to move back to my old phone, as I'm addicted to my current one, but I still want to be able to use WhatsApp and Google Maps.
Thanks for reading, and any help would be greatly appreciated!

The newest android version u can install is 4.4.4 kitkat, the lollipop download links are broken but i think there is a mirror avalible, tweakdroid is the fakest android rom site ever, they say u can install it (which u cant since of it low storage and ram amount) and they dont even give a download link.
This is so fake that when you copy the download link it shows
