How to extract a very weird qualcomm rom format ? - General Questions and Answers

Hi guys, I have a qualcomm device with a Snapdragon 410 MSM8916 SoC. Stock rom isn't available and I wanted acces to source code to sart some stuff. So I asked the brand directly, they gave me a file as "source code" but i'm not allowed to share it.
Stock rom is not yet available for this device.
You may think i'm stupid if i can't even tell the name of device or brand but I think it doesn't matter so much as I think they didn't do so much work on the rom, it's just AOSP 5.1.1 and it runs quite smoothly.
However, when I opened the file, it was very weird, you can take a look :

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
What I think they gave me instead of source code is the stock rom ready to flash with some special program (like flash tools for mediatek), my question is how to extract this !? I tried one of the system.img in Android Kitchen but no way it would do something :/ And Im pretty sure, there is no way at all to get source code from this as there are no readme or makefile...

CUSTOM ROM for DOOGEE MIX

I know MIX is pretty new, (or else they did not like it like me)
but I've already done a lot of research, and I was quite fooled by websites too ... is there no custom ROM for it?
The same is still true of Android 7.0 ...
### Is it possible to convert a ROM from one device to another? ###
### Is there a problem with MIX being MediaTek? So no ROMs yet? ###
*** Sorry if I'm doing the post in the wrong way ***
*** Sorry my english ***

As i've understood mediatek has some propietary code thats a backache for some developers, so that's why probably there aren't roms yet.
I'm propietary of a Samsung Note 3, with an open Snapdragon with a really good support for roms and also I have a Huawei P8 that really lacks of good support, all because of it's propietary Kirin processor.
Probably if someone is developing a rom for this phone, they wouldn't like to publish something like this(my channel XD): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkaoRIfagg0

Custom ROMs for Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Lite 7.0 SM-T110

I was looking for a custom ROM for my tablet and I found some links for Lineage OS 14.1 ROMs but all the links are dead. I was wondering if there are any more links for that version of Lineage OS specifically for my device that are still working. If there aren't any, could anybody help me find a ROM based on a newer version of Android? I know this is an old device but I want to keep it up and running with a newer OS. I also want to know if SM-T111 ROMs are compatible with this device because I saw that it's just a 3G version of the SM-T110. I don't want to do anything yet because I don't want to risk hard bricking my device. Thanks!
I think this link may work, sorry for the two years late reply: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767126057

Confusion regarding firmware model.

Hello there guys. First of all thanks for this wonderful website/forums. I've used rooting tutorials for my phone in the past here and also regarding some bugs that I had on my phone. Thanks!
Anyways now onto my confusion regarding my Android TV Box. I'm trying to understand what is the exact CPU model number of my Android TV Box as I need to flash the stock firmware.
In order to do that I need to know correct CPU model number or else facing the risk of bricking my device.
I used the app droidinfo and others, but I keep running into a confusing. On the device tab under 'Model' info it mentions the CPU firmware as 'rk3318_box'. While under the build fingerprint it shows 'rk3328_box'.
Even on the device factory reset boot menu it shows rk3328_box. So I'm stuck with confusion whether it is a Rockchip RK3318 CPU or RK3328.
The manufacture website says RK3318 but then this device info apps has thrown me into uncertainity. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

GTX Jaculus Unisoc T618 tablet

Hi All,
As usual, I put myself in trouble by purchasing something nobody knows and looking for help. I got a tablet containing Unisoc T618 chip but it seems like it is rebranded I can't find who the manufacturer is and if it is possible to flash a new ROM that can enable phone functions. The link to some details of the tablet is here GTX Jaculus. It is in Turkish but specs are obvious. Is there anybody that can help me identify who the manufactırer is and if it is possible to enable VoLTE on this device? I want to receive calls and be able to use my SIM card to call others. Currently, only the data plan works.
Thanks in advance
