Hi, first off I'm new to xda, new to developing, flashing, what not.
I want to keep the 5110 as is, but the 5210, I want to put a custom rom on.
was looking for opinions or tips from you all that actually know what your doing. any help would be greatly appreciated.
Edit: ive looked at two other custom roms off of this site, but I do not know how to turn the .zip into a .tar.md5

Hello all, brudis1 here. I'm starting to experiment with some custom roms. I'm running Fresh 3.4 and I just flashed the custom theme (KumaStyle_Beta_v1.4) I don't want to brick my rooted evo by doing something wrong. I've researched the forums for the last two days havnt found anyone asking about this topic. do i just go into es file explorer and delete it from there or into recovery? I honestly have no idea of how to do it. I would appreciate any kind of help on this question. in the meantime I'll keep searching. Thanks a bunch.
Sorry in advance if this should be in Q&A (mod please move if inappropriate) but my question has to do with development so....
Anyway.. was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of any guides or helpful threads that would help teach me how to port a rom. I am wanting to start to learn how to make custom ROMS and figured this would be a good place to start as the heavy lifting has already been done by the real devs...
Specifically looking to port lets say a nexus S rom for use with the NS4g for now.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give!
I was wondering the same thing. It seems like so much good is coming from the Nexus S section, that I would like to help bring it to the 4g side.

Yes, I know. Me too as well, but there's no guides on porting or I just can't find any. If anyone knows any guides on porting, point us fellows in that direction. thanks!
Man... kinda sux... no one can help at all?
First, this belongs in Q & A, hence no answer , second, it should be pretty easy, nandroid, switch out rild, and rils, make correct edits to build prop, and a kernel for ns4g and you should be good to go.
Are there any guides out there that perhaps detail this process a little bit, I would like to start porting some ns roms over to ns4g. I followed the steps provided by the previous post, and got most everything booting for the new miui rom with ICS however the wifi still doesn't work and it will not allow me to flash a different kernel as afterwards it refuses to boot. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Hey everyone, My first post on here so please bear with me as this maybe in the wrong thread.
I purchased this tablet from eBay and it arrived with some form of custom KitKat 4.4.2 ROM installed on it which is all well and good all though i would like to:
Install Stock ROM
Root Device
Reason for wanting the stock ROM is because in theory it should be a lot more stable than what the device currently is but following both set of instructions on their website proves to not work at all (unless I'm doing something wrong as not found out how to enter download mode yet!).
Is there another way of installing these files at all? Also any help on getting into download mode and recovery mode properly would be of great assistance!
At this point could i also ask if there is a really good KitKat ROM for this device that will support the rockchip?
Then last of all i would like to root the device, Again any help would be greatly appreciated and all info regarding this device can be found on their website as i can't post links yet.
Thanks for taking the time to read this and hopefully someone can help.
Hi everybody,
I decided to create this new discussion because I have some questions about this device. I have already rooted it, but I have something that I'm not able to do. I tried to find custom recovery for this device, but the only way I found was via Odin. Is any other simpler options? And I was even looking for a custom ROM, because the original one is incredibly slow, but I didn't find anything. Thank you for any advice and help

Flashing most custom recoveries to a samsung phone requires Odin, to be honest it is the simplest method. I know it looks confusing but after a few attempts it becomes seccond nature.
Thank you for this advice. So I think I'll use Odin. What about a custom ROM? I haven't found anything interesting yet

Try all of them, my personal favorite is Paranoid Android
Just try until you find one that you like
OK, thank you for the advice. Does anybody have any advice for a gt-s6790n ROM?
There are no custom ROMs for the Fame Lite...
There is a TWRP recovery for it though. Worked fine on my S6790L

Hello ? I'm frustrated so much, I've been trying to download custom roms for my mobile for almost three days now with no luck. I honselsty don't fully get why they're so important after a root, I mean if didn't install them would I be risking bricking my phone in the future? I'm a kind of a noob at this, so any advice or pointers would be so helpful and greatly appreciated ? Thanks.
Also I've seen all the threads on here concerning HTC desire 728 and custom roms, tried the methods there but they didn't work. I know starting a new thread about an old issue is a kind of a drag but I hoped someone would see this and answer me.

Greetings and welcome to assist. If you are happy with just root then staying as you are is perfectly safe and there is no need to flash a custom rom. Most people flash a custom rom just to get the latest updates or a couple of new features.
If you have the dual sim version then most of the custom roms on xda will not work for your variant as it is different hardware. I did find this thread that I think has a custom rom for your variant
https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-desire/general/urgent-help-htc-desire-728-malfunction-t3388534
Please always make certain that you only flash a custom rom that is compatible with your variant or you may brick your phone
Good Luck
