Hey guys,
I recently bought the cheap, but pretty fast "Dragon Touch X10" from TabletExpress. However, I had some troubles with the Android 4.4 installed and I was thinking to give it a try with a custom ROM. I have to say, I have been reading here for some hours, but I am kind of lost. I realize that most of the tutorials here are speicifically adressing more well-known models like samsung etc.
I think, what I want is something like the "Kangapop", a ROM which is basically like the plain android stock version from google.
Can I find somewhere instructions of how to flash such an unknown model?
Unfortunately, I cannot post the link for this tablet as a new user... The brand is "TabletExpress" and the Model is Dragon Touch X10.
Thanks in advance!
Does anybody have at least a hint where I could read or learn to figure it out by myself? I am a bit overwhelmed with the information out there.
Thanks!

Hello dear,
ROMs is specific for every device model, that means that you can't use rom from other devices for yours. :/
Thank you

Hi
I recently bought a vibe x2 from a guy in aus who flashes them with a rom so they can run andriod. Long story short my brother updated the lenovo ui so its back to CU operating system (chinese) the guys overseas for the momeng and tried to walk me through reinstalling the rom he uses but i cannot get it to work. Im going to send it to him when he gets back.but during my trawling for lenovo drivers i came across this
]https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/products/phones/vibe-series/vibe-x2/downloads/DS101342
According to the guy its a complete ROW rom, it has everything youd need to use it but its beyond his skill level.
Ive looked around here a bit but have never seen domeone use this. Does anyone know how to??
(I am a complete noob by the way when it comes to this sort of thing, hardware i can do a little not software/programming, so layman terms appreciated )

I'm a complete newbie in the Android world (iPhone user), so I'm so sorry in advance if I'm asking a stupid question. So today I bought an Alcatel Hero 2 from Amazon. The device hasn't arrived yet. The device has Android Kitkat on it and from some youtube review videos I knew that the customized Android version installed on the device is chubby so I thought if I can upgrade to vanilla Lollipop then the performance will improve.
There is very little information on the web about the Hero 2. I only found a webpage (can't post a link here because I'm new but google for "upgrade alcatel hero 2 lollipop" and you'll find it) that says one can upgrade to Lollipop, but it seems to be SCAM. Thus I thought it's better to ask here to get trusted answers since I don't want to get into security problems.
I know what ROMs are and have a little background but I don't know where to get trusted ROMs or if it's possible at all to upgrade my phone. I appreciate any answers.
Many thanks in advance!
Probably not, unless Alcatel comes out with its own Lollipop update or more threads appear here for Hero 2 ROMs.
The Hero 2 isn't very popular, or at least well-known, in the US. I'm surprised you even found it for purchase. Was it on the US Amazon site or a foreign version? Got a link? I was interested in a Hero 2, too, but I could never find it, and now it's getting a little long in the tooth.
Sorry this isn't the answer you wanted. Is it an all right phone overall, though? Reviews were generally favorable.
I don't think there is Lollipop rom for your device.
Hi guys,
any news about lollipop update? Im choosing between Hero 2 and LG G3, but Hero 2 is cheaper for me and it has little bit bigger screen. Any advices please?

My Hero 8 D820X is bricked (tried to factory reset and sth gone wrong) system crushed, i need to flash anything but can find nothing.
Hero 2 has same CPU, so hopefully it would work

This is weird, I looked all over and cannot find any links for original flashing files, not even 4PDA.
But, the rom I ported has no sound (unless you wear headphones), and camera is not working. This was basically just an experiment on trying to port it for first time, but sadly I do not have the device anymore so I won't be able to help much. If you still want to try it, here's the link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/rooting-roms/resurrection-remix-5-8-5-alcatel-t3913051
Meanwhile I'll try to keep looking for the original stock ROM for your device, there has to be something.
I'll let you know if I find anything.
Hello, guys. Newbie here. I just bought a few weeks ago a Huawei Gplay Mini (chc-01) with the ideea to install a custom rom and use it day by day. But, suprise, my favorite place with custom roms, xda, don't have anything for my phone. The phone is very good for the his price.. But i like to try some custom roms, but no one is developing one . Can anyone help me? Maybe the moderators can make a special category for this.. I don't like the roms made my huawei, but the phones are good and cheap. I had a huawei, and after that samsaung s3 + s4, and now again to huawei. The samsung phones are broking too easy. So anyone can help me with a custom rom light (maybe clean android) and maybe a special category for the phone? I know they are many guys who owns the phone, so xda please, do something. I'm watching this forum everyday for something for my phone., but nothing. Sorry if i post in wrong category, or my english sucks.Have a good day, greetings from Italy.

It recently sent Official Marshmallow update to G Play Mini devices to Asian countries. But sadly there are no custom ROMs for this device.
ROM Needed
Wow, we sure have no update on this one. Any one working on custom ROM for Huawei G Play Mini, i.e, CHC-U01?
Hello everyone,
I'm new to this platform and to be honest a bit overwhelmed. Apologize if this thread is in the wrong section.
I should also mention that I'm not too familiar with technical points.
I own an old Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (P5110) which claims its Android version 4.2.2 is still the most recent one for this device.
So I'm looking for a way to update to a newer versuon, at least Android 6.
My first question is which Android version you suggest?
Second one, how exactly do I do this (is there a step by step tutorial)?
Third one what are the risks? I read something about data loss and completely broken devices?
Thank you in advance.

Mate, I'm on the same boat. Same tablet, also overwhelmed The only response to your post points to some custom ROM page but the instructions are not detailed. I thought I had to throw my tablet but it seems like it still has some life to breath if I can get it a newer ROM (many apps are not supported anymore with Android 4.2).
I think the first thing to do is root the device but where to start? I'd prefer using linux with adb, etc.
There is a lot of stuff here. Is there anyone that has taken the time to write a detailed step by step guide somewhere?
BTW, my intention is not only to revive the device but to ditch all Google crap apps. In an ideal world, I would have installed a ROM from /e/ Foundation, but they do not support the device so I guess my next best bet is some custom ROM that uses LineageOS?
Hi,
First you need to root your device and install TWRP recovery:
More info here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...final-root-single-step-twrp-recovery-t3404779
It's an old thread but you'll get the idea.
See this one as well:
https://www.getdroidtips.com/twrp-recovery-samsung-galaxy-tab-2/
You'll need to find the correct version for your model otherwise you'll and up with a nice paperweight.
After this, you'll be able to back up your current ROM and install new ones. Unfortunately, I have a different model of Tab 2 that has no available custom ROM's so I can't say which ROM is better than other. I would read more in the link provided for slim roms.
To get rid of the installed bloatware and even Google apps I used SD Maid. See my thread below with what's left on my tablet (Disclaimer: it's a barebone setup and not all things work so I don't advise going that deep unless you're willing to take the risk of having a bricked tablet. You were warned!):
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...recting-samsung-tab-2-10-1-att-i497-t4079993/.

Complete Guide to Root and Update Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1
Hi all. Complete noob here - just wanted to document my journey for resurrecting my daughter's Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet to make it usable again. It had stock rom on it (android 4.0.4) ICS and would not update. Consequently, none of the...
forum.xda-developers.com
So recently I found an old Orange Roya in my drawer and thought that it's not that bad of a phone and maybe I could revived with a custom ROM as now it's running Kitkat (4.4.4). Now I've never flashed a custom ROM on my phone and I don't know much about that kind of stuff but I saw a video by Budget Builds where he managed to get Android 10 on a Samsung S2 so I thought as my phone has similar specs maybe a could do the same. So I searched far and wide and actually found an XDA thread about a custom ROM for my phone but than there are no instructions whatsoever in there, only a couple of dead links (Here it is, if that helps with anything: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...tel-pop2-ot-5042x-root-recovery-roms.3224875/ ). Besides that there was nothing at all in terms of any kind of ROM for this phone not only for android 10 but for any android it just seems that it's such a niche device that no one cares for it. So is that it? Is it just stuck running an ancient version of android basically acting as e-waste or is there anything I can do still to make it useful?
(Sorry for my English and lack of knowledge in terms of any of this but I really hope that something can be done to revive that phone.)
