ROMs are pretty device-specific, so if you only find a ROM for your device, then you can flash, otherwise stay away as it can easily brick your device.
Many Chinese forums do custom ROM development works like here in XDA, you may have to ensure which is your device first of all, and then search about it in Google.
As with your questions:
1 - Yes, have to determine which is your chipset (Can get all infos by using Quadrant Benchmark app)
2 - Install the ROM if you only find anything for your device.

Well, it would help if you could post some pictures of the device. Maybe someone will know what it is.
But anyway, basically you have to find out what chipset it has (CPU architecture, SoC etc.) and compare it to some branded devices so that you know what kind of ROMs and kernels you should be looking for.
Another option is to pull out any information about the currently istalled ROM and kernel and search a little to find out for what devices those are.
Good luck btw

I highly doubt because the hardware mentioned over there is pretty much unknown or I've not heard at least. If it was Qualcomm it starts with MSMxxx , Mediatek starts with MTxxx, Rockchip with RKxxx so I'm clueless.
The nearest bet you could do is, somehow find the device Model name and search for it, maybe some Chinese forums does development of that device, but don't give much hope.

Galaxy S4 Copy

Hi people!
I've chosen this section because I really don't know if there is any other section that is appropriate for this thread. Please let me know if there is !
I've received recently a Galaxy S4 as a gift and I was terribly disappointed to find out that it was just a copy...
So my device is an MTK based device, here are the tech specs :
Hardware :
CPU : Mediatek MT6577 x2 1Ghz
RAM : 512Mo
Display : 5.0 inches, 540x960, 240dpi
GPU: PowerVR SGX 531(Single core GPU)
Smartphone type : HDC I9500 (Galaxy S4 layout)
Software :
Android Version : 4.2.2
Kernel Version : 3.4.0 (eng.rooter.1372857005)
Rooted? : Yes
So the phone is rooted by default, but I want to know if i can install CWM Recovery, dump the current ROM or anything else? (especially to install CM10.1 ^^)
Thanks in advance !

If it was a gift than why you're disappointed? Sounds you're spoiled.

Somewhat, maybe because it was not the "real" S4, but it's way better than my old Galaxy Fit ^^ !

You can't just dump it. The fake Galaxy S4 is totally different spec-wise from the real thing. The userland software (which is closed source and cannot be modified) will be broken as it relies on hardware capabilities which simply do not exist on the fake one and cannot be emulated in the kernel.

kernel source are avaible

so you can try yo build cwm the try to port cm

Great, I don't know if it really worth the try but I'm going to check out all this. Any idea how I will flash the patched kernel then? Odin or something else?
EDIT: Oh nevermind, I've found something on google, I'll try to check all this and do my best! Thanks !

Any differences you can spot inside the "touchwiz ui", those mediatek s4 copies are sold as low as MYR 468 per unit @ USD 146.25. The body part is an exact copy of i9500, which looks exactly "Genuine". The thing that I notice it's fake because the status bar clock is not grey ( Samsung default) but instead it's Google Blue. And also there aren't much to set up under the device setting tab.

With an ancient copy, those little details were spotted, but with the version I got, they've made a lot of changes in TouchWiz UI to make it look like the original one, even the settings tabs were modded so we can choose them and navigate as if we're using a GS4. They've even made it possible to fake Antutu results, and a part of CPU-Z infos .
The funny part is that the phone emulates gesture with the proximity sensor (only from right to left xD ) !
@ivkos I saw that some guy uploaded a dump of the ROM, that's why I asked if it was possible, but he's not saying anything on how he did that :/ !

Bro, what is the black outline?

Update my phablet BQ Elcano2 (MT8393)

Hi everyone! This is my first post so..first of all I apologize for my grammar, I'm Spanish.
A few days ago I found at home a BQ phablet model Elcano 2 Quadcore. After charging and turning on the device I realized that it currently runs android 4.2.2. I managed to root my device so that I could update it to a more current version of android. The problem comes when I can't find any TWRP recovery or support on Lineage OS.
I have read that you can use the recovery of another device with the same specifications as mine but I have not found anything on the internet either.
Hope you can help me update my phablet. I don't need the latest version of android, by making my device useful I'm satisfied.
I downloaded the Aida64 application to know what processor I have:
MediaTek MT8389
4x ARM Cortex-A7 @ 1508MHz
1Gb Ram
32Gb ROM
7inch
Thanks dudes

First of all thanks for your reply.
Could you tell me how to do it or where to find it? It's the first time I've done something like this.
Thanks for your help

SD 870 low clocks

My Lenovo Xiaoxin Pad Pro 2021 has a Snapdragon 870 with very low clocks.
During gamecube emulation it hovers around 1ghz on cpu and 300mhz on gpu at 30C.
OS is Android 11. I looked through all the settings and notification bar. Cant find a way to enable any higher performing modes.
Is there anything i can do?

Only if you can root the device and install a custon kernel that has overclocking support, stock kernel does not support overclocking and the only way to "add" the ability to overclock is to add it to the kernel during the kernel building process.
If no one has made a custom kernel with overclocking support for your device, you will have to build it for yourself.

I dont need to overclock it.
I wouldnt need or want a higher clock than default to be honest.
I just want the regular clockspeeds the snapdragon 870 should get, you know?
