Hi,
I am not sure if this is the right place to ask, also not sure if I may sound logical or not!
The phone is released with KITKAT on it and the manufacturer is not going to update the firmware on it. I want to upgrade to Lolipop/Marshmallow, which ever is possible.
1. Is there any ROM available for Infocus M530 ?
2. Can I use ROMs for other phones on this?
3. If nothing works, can I modify any ROM to suit this phone?
Thanks In advance for any and all responses.
Please Note:
All kind of remarks, including negative are welcome though.
Please do not post offensive replies. I want this thread clean.

This belongs in Q&A not general, for future reference. I have reported this to the MODS, so they can move it.
if you're planning to flash jellybean then you need the boostrap from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19355021 , with that installed, go to dev section of the forum and d/l a custom rom and flash following steps in the op , remember always to make a backup of your current rom
sent from the gray stuff inside my skull
There are only two roms based on JB. And both have a guide to install.
Any links for some good n stable roms are appriciated.. Kindly help

So, you're not "lazy", just apprehensive. There's nothing wrong with that. However, what we do here on xda isn't to spend time explaining all the pros vs/ cons to all ROMs available, nor is it anyone's assertion as to what the "best" ROM may be -as this is all very subjective to the individual. There's a hefty ROM list of threads in the development section, so it's your responsibility to read over each one (that may strike you as interesting) and make your own assessment to which you may choose.
Also, each ROM thread by our dev team has explicitly detailed installation instructions, so there should be no reason as to why you would run into trouble -so long as you read, re-read, and fully understand what you're getting yourself into.
Also, there's a handy little help thread that I started for any and all questions, problems, etc. So, if you happen to run into anything, feel free to post there. Myself and a few others maintain that thread, so you should expect an answer without the need of posting a new thread each time you have a problem.
Device info: http://www.bidwelltec.com/nb7850-s/
Will you please help gather support from developers for the NB7850 S. I couldn't find any sites supporting this device by independent developers. I have already sent an email to the site email form, so please don't overload them with requests, just wondering if we could gather interest and support for this device, the stock ROM is already laggy and hard to root or even using sometimes with the way they have this ROM set up. Please help, I am in stock ROM H.E.Double hockey sticks.
Thank you to anyone who can help me root this device and get a recovery flashed and !maybe guide me on developing for this device. I am so lost when it co!es to Android developmemt and would appreciate any help I can get to demystify this. I like to write easy to follow noob related articles so help me, to help you. LoL thank you everyone. ?:good:

Hi, sorry to say but it appears to be a bit of a white box brand so it's unlikely to gain support due to it being unknown and present in many variants of the device.
You would be better to look around for ROMs that support specific components in the device in order to have better luck as their will be similar devices using the same components with one of them probably having a ported ROM such as CM
Hope I could help and good luck

root genius worked for me literally just rooted a few minutes ago took me forever to find one that worked
http://www.shuame.com/en/root/
Root Genius worked for me also
Lot of applications that require root access work fine. Now, how do I do a Nandroid backup? Also, anybody know tried a custom ROM on this device? Hesitant to "just try it" until I have a full Nandroid backup.
I have one of these. Got it for $59.95 on sale via Staples website. A curious thing is that none of the preloaded apps show under My apps and the Store won't automatically update any of them. I had to look them up on the Store and install the latest versions.
Hi,
I'm sorry if this is a dumb question, but this forum is just so huge that I don't really know where to start.
So I bought a Moto G this year, rooted it and got xposed installer on it etc etc..this was a few months ago.
It's also been a long time since I've really been into getting more out of my phone. My question now is, is xposed still the
"big thing" to have on your rooted phone or is there something new/better out there now? I don't need anything super sophisticated,
just something that has a few options like changing your interface etc.. So yeah..Am I still good with Xposed or is there anything new
and if there is, how do I "uninstall" xposed and install this new software/app/..
Thank you!
Kind regards!
Hi,
Usually the best options are custom roms with their extra customization options on some, or stock and xposed. You don't see anything on customizing stock rooted other than xposed.
You can ask for other opinions here, or use this section for any future questions or issues,

Hi,
Thank you for your reply, I found a ROM that I would like to install, but I don't really know how to get started? And if it makes a difference that I already have xposed on my phone?
Just read the rom flashing instructions usually in post one.... Or first couple. Or else you need to ask in the thread I linked. ?

Ok, thank you alot for your help, I know these are some newbie question. Just one last one, I'm looking for the offical Cyogenmod, I've used the search function, but I only seem to find unofficial ROM versions of it?

You can ask in the unofficial thread. But usually if there is no official version, it's cause CM doesn't officially support the device. But a Dev created one for your device anyway. ?
Hello everyone,
I'm using "Alcatel One Touch POP C5 5036D". The problem is, this phone is so slow that it takes about 30+-seconds to open up any app or function. i tried some custom Roms but all have some bugs or i don't like them. i searched many times but couldn't find an easy way to install stock rom but an Official Tool that installs stock firmware from their server & it takes so long. Even couldn't find a single rom that's fast enough & works everything perfectly. As i have mentioned earlier returning to Stock ROM is such a pain.
Now i'm asking for help to all you Developers, please can you make it easier for this phone users to install stock firmware like we download the Firmware package & install it with SP Flash Tool or something like this? Please it's my heartiest request to you all if you can, make this thing simple or make some ROM that really works fine for this phone users & oblige us.

2.-I downloaded ClockworkMod.
3.-I saved instructions like "How to Root Android 4.1.2 with KingoRoot.apk
4.-I saved "How to install ClockworkMod."
Do I need more items to download? Which ones please?

Greetings and welcome to xda. The rom you want to install is this one yes ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note/development/rom-nightowl-preview-t3455847
The rom will be pre rooted so you will only need to install your custom recovery and then flash the rom. Most of the users on xda are really friendly and helpful so do not be frightened of asking any questions in the the threads and the experts will help you (if they don't just threaten them with me haha). Anything you are unsure of just ask in here

I can not find alpha 6 but alpha 7 is nougat the other 2 night owl threads are mm and kk which I can link. Please note though it is only the operating system you are changing so your hardware will be the same but will have new feature
As long as you have installed the correct recovery you can back up your current rom and then try any of the 3 and return to your current rom safely. If you ask in this thread here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note/help
the experts there will be able to assist you better as they have your device
Good Luck
