Hello, and thank you for using XDA Assist!
Short answer, no.
Long answer, there has to be a lot of similarities between two devices in order for them to be capable of sharing the same firmware (or ROM). Bare minimum, they must have the same chipset and partition layout, or you will end up hard-bricked (something noone ever wants). The rest of the hardware has to be the same (or similar) too, or you will get a bootloop after installing, or less often, a feature that won't work.
The only time I have seen a ROM closely matching two devices is when two models are made by the same manufacturer, and even then, there are subtle glitches in the function of that ROM for the other device (such as auto-rotate not working).
At any rate, you can create an account, and post a thread in > Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting asking if there are any ROMs, or plans for ROMs for this device.
Hope this helps, and good luck!

I have a motorola atrix 4G (Olympus) and no official update for this terminal beyond android 2.3.6. I then thought maybe the firmware of a Motorola HD can be flashed in this terminal. But not if it worked or not please help. I found many roms as CM or PAC-ROM but no stable. and more stable version Cyanogenmod is what brings android 2.3.7 ... so I thought maybe if it works put a motorola HD firmware upgrade would have to CM11 ... .and sorry for my bad English.
Hi!
I will start with a huge NO!
Its never a good idea to flash another phone models firmware, it can break your device permanently.
That said, I'm no expert with either of those devices.....so I suggest you ask in your devices section, here....
>*Motorola Atrix 4G*>*Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Don't try anything like you've suggested without getting info from the guys that know your device best.
Good luck!!

Hello,
I have an MTK6589 phone GFive G9 phone with 4.2.1 Android version firmware custom added on the phone (not part of the settings coming with the phone). More information about the version is in the attached screenshot.
Generally, the phone is working fine but I have been experiencing issues with random restarts when using the phone. This happens approximately once a day, the phone freezes for around 10s and then restarts and continues working normally.
I believe that this is relate do some of the apps I have installed on the phone, but I am uncertain which ones or if this assumption is correct. I would like to get to the root of the problem, could you help me determine what is causing this issue? Is there any log files that could help me with this?
Do you have any suggestions on the best approach to determine the reasons for this happening?
Hi,
If you are able, you could try clearing cache in your recovery . Otherwise it could be an app possibly ...but the only way to track that down is the process of elimination .
Also, custom roms can often have some glitches.
Feel free to ask for help here though,

Hello, and welcome to XDA!
I am going to use an analogy. Porting a ROM is like transplanting a kidney. The donor (base phone) and the recipient (phone to port to) must be very similar. Having a chipset in common is like having the same blood type. It's only a 1 of 6 match, and the recipient will undoubtedly reject the kidney no matter what. Which is why you bootlooped with ROM's that have only the chipset in common with your device. Luckily you are still getting to boot logos, a wrong ROM could overwrite your bootloader, or modem, and it'd be lights out, forever.
For a Huawei clone (that isn't really a clone, since it has a completely different chipset than the Huawei), there isn't much love for this device. As in you may be the first to ask about this device on this site.
My recommendation at this point, is to restore your stock backup (hopefully you made one). If not, you will need a stock ROM, and that will be like asking for a kidney. If this is the case, this is where to ask:
> Android Development and Hacking > Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > [Ask Any Question][Newbie Friendly]
Please note, you will need to register for an account to an XDA account to do this.
Once you are back on stock, you can look for a 4 of 6 match (or better) by looking at teardown websites and comparing the chips. The more chips in common the better. I don't imagine you will find anything usable, but one can dream until the possibility of someone creating native ROMs for the device. If you do find a device that fits the fill, and it has a custom ROM, be sure to fix the updater script to flash boot to the right partition.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
I searched more sites for rom but didn't find
Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
If you want a ROM to be made for your device you have 3 options
1)Wait for someone that has your device and the knowledge to build a ROM.
2)Find someone with the knowledge that has your device and get them to build the ROM.
3)Find someone with the knowledge and donate a device like yours to them so they can test the ROM they build.
4)Find instructions for how to build or port the ROM yourself(you will probably get a ROM faster this way than waiting for or finding someone else to do it).
Most of the time a device must be a popularly used device to have custom development for it. Low end, low spec, unpopular and cheaper devices usually don't get any development unless a normal user decides to develop for the device themselves. If you like being able to customize your devices then I suggest you research the devices you buy before you buy them, that way you can find the custom stuff available for it before you buy it. Never assume that there is something available for every android device out there be cause that is not true. There are many android devices that never get any development of any kind.

Hello people,
So I've been using this phone for quite some time(HTC desire 700 dual Sim) it's running on stock Android which is 4.1.2(it sucks, I know) I am not super good at phone and stuff but I am quite interested and I have already rooted this phone. The problem is that I cant find a custom recovery and custom rom (I would like any new ones, like android 6.0,which obviously will never make it officially into) so yes, I prefer 6.0 or similar ones... I would like to request you guys to help me in this. Would like detailed step to step instructions. I know my phone is stupid and I should replace it but atm I am not willing to buy anything since I have to pay rent. Thank you all. Sorry for my bad english.
