[Q] Custom ROM for Alcatel 6030x

I recently acquired an Alcatel Idol OT - 6030x and would like to change its ROM. I've already rooted the phone, how do I know which ROMS are compatible with my phone? I've tried a bit of searching, but I've found no concrete answer.
Thanks!

Actually some guy from Poland made 3 custom ROMs for Alcatel OT Idol 6030x. I think he ported them.
The first is 4.1.2 based and I think that pretty much everything on that ROM works.
Here it is:
http://forum.android.com.pl/f916/android-4-1-2-jb-beta-4-alcatel-ot-6030x-397643/
The second is 4.2.2 based and pretty much everything works but has one bigger issue. The microphone doesn't work. So if you use your phone to talk to somebody often then I this won't be your daily ROM.
Here it is:
http://forum.android.com.pl/f1006/a...zebni-testerzy-388635/index6.html#post3415953
The third is MIUI 4.3.20. 4.2.2 based. But the Microphone and FM Radio don't work. And seems that you can't enable root permissions on this ROM. Do not try to do a system update because it will install a ROM for the ZTE phone from whom this ROM was ported so it will brick you phone.

root HTC One ME (OPLA 130 M9EW) with HTC One Plus files ?

Hi Nerds,
I just get my new HTC One ME from China and I wonder that there is still no specific way to root it. The hardware is allmost from the M9 Plus. You can compare the ME to M9+ (gsm arena website) sorry not aviable to post links yet ^^. the difference between this two devices is, the ME got no aluminium case and there is no 2nd Camera on the back side. And unfortunately no USB 3.0. but the same chipset cpu and gpu.
my question is, can I root it with the common HTC ONE M9 PLUS files. I really dont want to brick it, so i better ask =)
thanks!

Well, i think there's already a recovery for m9ew, but in chinese:
http://bbs.mgyun.com/thread-44535-1-1.html
someone here with good Chinese might help you to download it and upload it to somewhere easier to access.
It may be tho' in Chinese inside TWRP so you'll need a dictionary possibly. Or you can try extract it with https://github.com/xiaolu/mkbootimg_tools and replace the ui portrait resources with english inside twres, then repack.
And to answer the question: I wouldn't try it with m9pw (m9+) recovery, very high chance of failure, at least not without a full RUU zip to make sure you can restore phone to stock.

Yes,the hardware of ME is almost same as M9+. But don't use the same recovery for it only if you already have a RUU.
Bellow is a english version recovery for ME from http://bbs.gfan.com/android-8014295-1-1.html
download：http://pan.baidu.com/s/1kTs0fNh
password：8ft8
and then you could flash root file.
Reminder:
1. You’d better have a RUU .
2. flash the recovery and initially go to the recovery will break your system from OTA. If you would,try to repack it.

Unless you have a unmodified system image backup, you won't apply OTA from original hTC update. If you can get the OTA file somewhere and extract the firmware. Flash it manually and follow the ROM chef to flash custom ROM.
I didn't find out any custom ROM released on the above website. You need to join their QQ group to get one and I don't have a QQ account ( china mobile phone number). I am happy there was a XDA forum to share information for M9+.

hello, i have m9ew with radio 1405. can anyone guide me into installing GAPPS ?

I got mine from HK so it came with gapps. where did you find yours in China? i could not find anyone who had the ME in China. With regards to Gapps, did your phone come with HTC market? if so u can usually get gapps directly from there. its an app called gms or gsm, i cant remember exactly. then you run that app and it will install gapps automatically, just follow the onscreen instructions. That was the case with my M7 dual sim.

any updates on this? solutions?

Hello,

Hi
I didnt dare to root it yet because Im not in Chinese language and I didnt want to break from OTA so short after release
( flash the recovery and initially go to the recovery will break your system from OTA. If you would,try to repack it.)
so far my m9ew is still complete stock without root
sorry

First of all thanks for prompt reply, I can't read Chinese myself so I didn't dare too but I unlocked the bootloader officially in case I figure out root method.
The phone is doing great though I miss rooting tools but I face a serious issue which is overheating which is so frustrating for me.
It makes it lagging and slow and I have to let it cool down to regain its full power

Any udate regarding this topic. Successful root/recovery....?

Is this device compatible with a TMOUS SIM card with LTE coverage?
Thanks,

HTC Desire 620G Dual Sim

I recently came into the possession of a HTC Desire 620G Dual Sim (it was my father's) Android 4.4.2, Kernel 3.4.67, Chipset Mediatek MT6592 (Online is liste as android 4.4.4 but that is a lie). After days of searching the web and reading countless forums I came to the conclusion that this is a very unpopular and abandoned smartphone. I really want to change the android version on this phone, I know how to root, I learned from this forums. The only problem I have is that I can't find any android versions ported for this phone, I need anything newer than 4.4.2, I would like 4.4.4 or lollipop as i heard it runs better. I checked all custom androids none has support for this device, I cant even find this phone on the clockworkmod and TWRP list of devices. What do I do now? If I can't even install a custom recovery on this phone? So to sum this up, I need a custom recovery mode for this phone and a ported android version newer than 4.4.2. I would appreciate any help.

Hi, even if my answer has nothing to do with what you asked, you seem to have the abilities to make a backup copy of your stock rom, that's waiting that you still have your stock rom in that phone and it's european model.
Could you please be so kind to make a backup copy of your rom?
And by the way, there's at least one russian guy that has cooked one rom for this phone, even if it seems to have some issues yet.
Thanks in advance

Hi, I'm very sorry I flashed MIUI v5.8.27 Beta, a rom found on these forums ported by a guy, maybe the same guy you speak of. I regret it now, I need the stock rom back, I liked it better. I did found something over the web a stock rom but I'm to wuss to try it because there is a chance I'll brick my phone and this is the only phone I got. Do you want to try that stock rom? I'll find it again for you.

That's very kind of you. I have in fact found also a stock Rom, but is not the same the version as my phone's, plus is a Rom for phones sold in India and I bought mine at in Europe, so I prefer not to "risk" this time.
There are some sites that really have all the roms, but they want money to let you download anything, is quite "strange" and I will not say anything else about that.
Sadly, HTC doesn't provide free download for any of their devices, like they used to do and I am not sure about what could happen if I download and install one of those branded roms that can ba apparently downloaded.
Finally, what I want is simply recover the "normal" functionality of this phone, because after rooting, I lost the camera function, the whole system became absolutely unstable and getting worst, so now it resets itself without warning just like that and it's not providing any acoustical messages anymore, so I know I will never root again a phone with any of those "tools", I will do it old style, connecting with a command line terminal.
So maybe that Rom you're using may fit the bill for me, but I couldn't find a way to install cwm or twrp on this phone to install any cooked Rom and I've been really out of this chores for quite some time to know enough to find the right way to do this on my own.
So thanks for any help you can provide and I think it would be really nice to provide this Rom here because it's more than one person who needs it and apparently no one really cares about this phone, there are several people with these problems.

[Completed] Rooting Xiaolajiao LA2-S

Hi all! I recently purchased a Xiaolajiao LA2-S from China, and didn't realise that you couldnt install Google Play onto it. To get it installed it seems I need to root the phone. I've tried several methods, including the paid version of One Click Root, with no success. (their support told me it couldn't be rooted) Has anyone got one of these phones and if so have you managed to root it?
It is currently running Android 4.4.4.
Regards,
Dean.

Further to this here are the basic specs:
Operating System: Android 4.4
CPU Processor: Marvell PXA1908 Quad-Core 1.2GHz
GPU: Marvell PXA1908
