1- you should port other phone's rom to your phone and then flash it.. only then will you be able to use that rom on your phone..
2- Google stock rom/original firmware <your phone 'name> .. if its available on the internet then you will find one.. or else you will need to do a nandroid backup or extract it..
3- there is no general rom which works on all phones rightaway.. there is cyanogenmod which is by far available for all phones (don't know about Chinese phones) .. but you will have to do some tweaks or modification to work on a specific phone because different phones have different hardwares..
4-4.1.2 is jb and not ics.. you will have to put cm10 or probably delete the bloatware installed by your supplier..
5- as i said before you need to port cm9 for your phone.. there are many noob friendly guides on xda to help porting roms.. check out

Best thing you could do is find a similar device to your phone's spec's and find a Rom you like from that phone and then port it to your phone using the many noob friendly guides in chef central

try srsroot,unlock root,z4 root.. if you're not getting your Rom you extract it yourself. I think before porting any Rom,you have to figure out root for your phone because NO CUSTOM ROM WILL WORK WITHOUT ROOT.. try srsroot, it has rooted many unconventional devices also.. Google srsroot,download it from their official website and try..

so i tryed all thos methods...

does your phone has locked bootloader or UNlocked one?

I have a same problem...any ideas?

How good are these phones?

very good phones

A suggestion...
I'm not 100 % you can do it but there is a slight chance you can root your phone through fastboot ! Maybe pushing the su binary and apk through adb and giving permissions or maybe flasing a custom CWM Rrecovery through fastboot and flashing an SU flashable zip through that recovery !
BUT be awere BOTH of these methods are BIG MAYBE ! I can not test and I can not ensure you any of these will work !
You can get a flashable SU package here :
1) Superuser : http://androidsu.com/superuser/
2) Super SU : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053

you can
yes you can
i know page on Facebook that support me to root my device and install cmw
Chinese smart phone support

I used this to root my i9400, hope it helps!

What should I do if any thing happens after I rooted my phone ?

I am using samsung galaxy trend duos(s7392). There is no custom rom for the mobile. But, my phone is very very slow. Thats why I should root my phone. But, as there is no any custom rom,, then what should I do if I had any problem with my phone after root ? I mean ,, mostly when anything wrong happens, then I factory restore my phone. But after root , how can I restore my phone ? Thanks.

I think, you better make full phone backup before doing anything. there are many post regarding software with which you can make backup etc.... i think Odin is used for that purpose.... I'm not samsung guy.
gather information, read about "Rooting", "Custom Recovery (CWM or TWRP)" and "ROMs Custom/Official" topics. take interest in reading so you understand more about functions/features, benefits and risks.
as i mentioned above i'm not using samsung, so i don't know much about it's tools. Phone/Stock ROM Backup or download original too for safety reasons and don't take any step to modify phone settings etc.... until you have collected enough information about it and you are aware of your actions. this will keep you mostly safe for issue/damages.
i hope you knew that to install Rom your phone need to be rooted and bootloader unlocked i think. so read about them and how to flash etc....
well, about problems after rooting.. it depends on problem and then the solution.... and regarding restoring phone after rooting it is only to flash official rom or unroot from tool/method used to root the mobile in case option available, i think.
well, here a link for you.
LINK: Rooting Samsung galaxy trend GT S7392
well, search and read about root, custom recovery, flashing room. and Do not forget to make full phone backup. hope someone reply with better solution.
that's all i can share. hope you get the idea.

[Q] rooting lg volt virgin

ok lets get this out ot the way i have a lg volt wich is updated to the zv4, ive read other threads on how to root.
so far i see that it must be flashed back to the old stock rom to root, my issues are as follows.
1: would prefer not to flash unless installing cyanogenmod or simular rom.
2: have seen issues mentioned with radio(cellular reciver) after flashing mentioned.
for a guy who has flashed a update on 2 phones after roothing and has rooted 5 previous devices i can say this is the first root process that actualy worries me.
im looking at the programs below free and paid.
oneclick root
rootgenuis
and this wich was on androidforums link below working no flash one click root according to the post.

as always thanks in advance for all help provided.

[Completed] [Q] Start to finish guide

Hi, my name is Anthony and I have a T-Mobile S5 running the latest version of android (I think it's 5.0.1 or 5.0). I'm kinda a newb with flashing and rooting. I had my phone rooted using towel root a while ago, but I lost that root in an update and it is no longer supportive of my phone.
I'm looking to install custom roms but before I do so, I would like to make a full backup of my current stock touch wiz so I can revert to it in case I don't like the new rom. I also would like to root my phone. Oh, and before anyone tells me that I need to install Odin, I have a Mac running Yosemite.... A lot of people have told me that I need to install clock work in order for this whole process to work.
Recap:
1. Make backup rom
2. Root phone
3. Teach me how to flash roms using a Mac.
4. Include any other important info and links for downloads.
I mainly want to install CM12, but I still want a backup rom to revert to later
Thanks, and please don't post any hate

Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. Some pro tips, figure out how to use Odin. You'll need it eventually if you want to root and flash roms. Either in a Windows vm or heimdall. If something goes wrong you'll need to flash the stock firmware.
There's a whole forum for your device,http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s5. And the best place to ask your specific question is here,http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s5/help

hipstreet 7DTB25 custom rom

Hi everyone ,
I have a hipstreet 7DTB25 i manage to root it using kingo root (1 clic tool) and to remove the kingo super user to replace it by SuperSU. But now im facing a problem i want to install a custom rom but even after searching google ,xda and cyanogen website im still mystified. I got a couple question :
1) Is there a compatible rom with my device ? If yes, how can you tell?
i've looked to CM 11.0 M7 it is build on android 4.4.2 which my device runs on now (btw i dont trust it to be a clean install since there was a lolipop sticker covered by a kit kat one on the box ) ive search about it but it dont say nothing on my device, i try to look at cyanogenmod site but i've found nothing. And since i have really slow download speed and dont want to break my hardware for nothing i want to get informed before doing anything
2)Did using cwr (clockwork recovery) is correct to flash something on my device (if i could find anything to flash)
i've install it once was running great and making reboot in recovery so i suppose the answer to be yes but i dont really know ,the only weird thing i noticed was that i cannot back up anything
3)How can you tell if a website that offer custom rom are reliable? (Except xda, i know that one :laugh: )
4)If im not able at all to flash a custom rom is there a possibility of changing a stock rom to another?
Thanks

Hi, I bricked mine.. are you able to tell me where to get the ROM and twrp? Thanks.
