[Completed] From stock Android to ROM

Hi everyone, as first: thank you for making android as rich as you are making it .
I've a GT-I9070 with stock android , i can boot in to recovery mode holding down volup/home/power and i have the option to install zip files and wipe data so i wanted to install one of theese roms: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2578599 OR http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s-advance/orig-development/rom-mahdi-rom-2-7-t2869985
Questions:
Is as simple as downloading the zip packages, putting them in to the SD Card and install them with the recovery mode?
Some users can't install the roms becouse of the wrong recovery mode(?), in many post is written to install an app from play store and use it to replace boot.img, will be the phone still booting after a faild attempt of flashing a custom rom?
Thanks very much for reading and sorry for the english, i'm Italian and i'm still studying :laugh:

Hi,
First thing, is are you rooted? You need a custom recovery to flash a ROM.

Thank you very much! I was wandering if i still need to root it and install a custom recovery even if my recovery allows me to wipe cache/partitions and to install zip files
If someone confirm that i'll give cyanogen 4.4 a shot with my phone since it's full of customization by samsung that i don't like and cyanogen if full of customization that i DO like :laugh:
EDIT: In this post someone use odin to flash the image and then uses stock recovery to clean up(if needed), can i follow the same procedure?
Thanks for the link and the answere!

You definitely need a custom recovery to flash a rom. And the rom will be rooted anyway. If you want to unroot after, that's your choice. Read up on that, or ask in Q&A section link I gave you.
As far as flashing a rom with Odin... Never heard of that, only stock firmware. Yes, you also flash custom recovery with Odin. Not roms tho.
Anything else, please use the Q&A section for help. ?

Sounds like a soft-brick.
Maybe you flashed a corrupt file, or a firmware which is not compatible for your device.
You may have to flash another firmware which is compatible with your device ... or restore stock firmware.
Here you can find a nice guide: [GUIDE] Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 OR 7.0 Rooting/CWM/Restoring To Stock ... "E" is how to restore back to stock.
For further help, please register on xda and ask in the Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting.
Good luck !

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
I'm sorry to hear about your trouble. There is no forum specifically for the Lenovo A7000 at this time but I suggest that you ask your question with all relevant details in the friendly general Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help. That's a good place to start where members familiar with your device might be able to advise you. You could also ask wherever you downloaded your ROM from but I see a number of references to your model from a tag search at http://forum.xda-developers.com/t/lenovo-a7000 which might be worth reviewing.
Good luck!
EDIT: Member has now posted in the suggested area. Thread closed.

Hello, and welcome to XDA!
If there is no custom recovery (like CWM or TWRP) for this device (and it looks like there is none), then the chance of ROM's would be shot out the window. Sorry.
If you are curious about either, can ask in this thread:
> General discussion > Questions and Answers > [Q] Lenovo Tab 2 A10-70F --Root??
Hope this helps.
