Partition Basics - Android General

I decided to take some time and make a visualized representation of what's inside of our devices, generalized with who but it there and possible outcomes.
I hope it is user-friendly and noob friendly, since I've seen many questions about "whats a full wipe", "whats a ROM", etc. and cant explain it with mere sentences.
So, without further adieu, behold:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Let me know what you all think.
I might add more pictures with more in-depth visualizations in the future.

[Q] Differences between CustomRUUs?

What are the exact differences between the CustomRUUs for each device?
How easy is it to make a CustomRUU for another or new device?
Can someone explain me that in detail?
Regards.

Rather than ask to be
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
You should try searching and reading the hundreds of informative threads on this site.
All the answers you need are here http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=613
I think my question can be misunderstood:
I don't want to cook another ROM but i want to know whats the "secret" behind the CustomRUU tool.
How is the flashing done by the tool. What commands are send to the bootloader. Are these commands are very different from one phone generation to another or are they similar?
How is every CustomRUU tool build?
That's what i want to know. How a ROM is build is not of my interest.

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

[Q] how to suggest something to google (or any custom rom developer for a general fix

ok, so the thing is as an end user, I have no idea who to bother with this (whether they will listen is a whole other thingymagig)...
but well general discussion, here we go:
A thing which has been annoying the crap out of me in android is the checkboxes in settings not displaying the full text. Mostly the detailed explanation gives enough info to guess what it actually is about but sometimes it's anyones guess
for example:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I'm guessing in the first screenshot "up..." stands for "update" seeing how it is referred to in the details, but the second one... ehm.... miniplayer? microphone?... milk!?
I am using a galaxy s2, not a giant screen but definitely not the smallest either, anyone an idea who or what we can inform about this annoyance?
Thanks!

Help with "X20 PRO" Pirate

Hello community, I hope you are well, I have an issue with a pirate phone, has no mark anywhere, or on the plate, or the battery, anywhere, the phone has a housing with 3 cameras, but in reality the phone only has one, in short, with that introduction, I leave some attachments with information about the phone. I would like to change the operating system, any good, it happens that the one that brings the phone is mined of junk applications, advertising all the time, and applications of dubious reliability, the truth serves any system as long as you get rid of this, I have searched like crazy but I can not find anything about this phone, I wanted to install the same version that has but clean, but I do not know which method of flashing proceed, I hope your answer. Thanks in advance.
