NEWCOMER here . Please help.. - General Questions and Answers

Hello everybody ,
Since I'm new in here, I'm just starting this thread here in this General Section because I just want to say a hello to all and I want to ask some questions also.
I just bought a new LYF Flame 7 phone with Lollipop(v 5.1) and this is my first Android phone ever.That means I'm new to both Android and Android forums like this. Now I want to learn about it. Not just the basic stuff, because I want to be a developer in this field. So this basic budget phone is perfect for learning. Before I'm buying this phone I was using Nokia C6 Symbian phone which I bought about 3 or 4 years ago and I utilized it in every way(except programming) . I'm always a tech lover but I was unable to stay updated with it because of financial problems I had (and still have). Luckily, now I got an Android phone (even though its basic model) and its time to learn about it. So friends please direct me to helpful threads here. From basics of Android to intermediate to advanced to etc etc etc ......... I wish to learn about rooting,ROM backing-up,customization,changing ROM,app development and so on, and you know....
I'm using computers since 6th grade and I'm very friendly with Windows but not Linux. I don't know much about Linux,only basic things,I mean very basics and I heard Android is based on Linux core I think I have to learn about it too. So please help me about it too.
With a few days usage I learned something about it but i also had some issues.
Issue No 1: I can't customize menu and I asked some of my friends who already using Android for a long time about it. they told me the Android I have is basic Google release and it doesn't support customization. I have to install launchers.
No. 2: I Can't properly tether with Windows 8.1 PRO 32 bit.when I thether Windows freezes and Internet is not fast enough. (Its Jio 4G LTE)
No.3: I can't uninstall many useless apps that consumes RAM.
AND MORE ISSUES WILL BE COMING AS I USE IT MORE.
PS :-
"" I tried to express my wish in a language other than my my mother tongue, so i don't know how many of you understood about what I mean , but honestly I tried to share it with you,even though we don't know each other. But what I believe is if somebody want to express something,and their wish is good enough, then language is not a barrier. And I think you understood me. So please help me. And once again I repeat,I'm a newbie in Android.
If anybody need more detail,I can explain again .""
Once again HELLO to all and thanks to all.

Are you sure?
I'm a little afraid to do with Kingroot because one of my friend's Xperia was bricked after he tried to root with that app.
So are you very sure that Kingroot is safe?
And did you find a way to backup your current ROM ? , Because I didn't yet.

Hello Vikrant . Welcome to XDA.
I think you are also a newbie like me.
And yeah, we need to solve the heating problem.
But what I think is first we need to root our device and uninstall all of that useless factory Google apps and some other apps.
And , if still there is problem, then we may have to work on kernel.
But in order to work with kernel , we must have deep knowledge about Android and Linux's core.
And of course we'll learn( in fact,we are already learning).
We'll also help each other.
One question, have you backedup your ROM ? And did you Root your device?
Asking because I haven't done both yet and I'm currently planning to do. But there are some little confusions.

Easy

First of all root your device
make backup of stock recovery :laugh:

now go to recovery nd take backup of your stock rom

I think now I can Root. Because my phone now have another rom . I got this new rom from official Jio Care . I went there because I bricked my device when tried to flash a recovery found from the internet. I tried this flashing because the 'factory test mode' was gone after I tried to root with king root .it was showing a 'no command' error when I am trying to go to 'factory test mode' I did that flashing only to restore that. But it ended in a bricked device. So I had to go there and they helped me. I also asked them for stock rom but they didn't give me. I didn't check king root yet with this rom.

it is same file as for x98pro.
2.Enable USB debbaging in developers option.
3.Boot to safe mode by choosing in menu option Power off and holding for 2-4 sec.
4.Now connect USB cable to your pc and Teclast mini port.

Teclast x16pro has exactly same software as x98pro so this video will be exactly what you should follow:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVZEkrVbm2I
I'm having terrible touch response with my X16 Pro. Are you seeing this and is there a way to fix it with another ROM? Also, the default resolution in the stock ROM seems to be wrong @ 1920x996. Have you been able to adjust this?
Point 3 in your instructions confused me a bit. But I finally understood what you meant:
"3.Boot to safe mode by holding down the power key and then tap and hold in the power menu option "Power off" for 2-4 sec. until you see the safe mode boot option."

I try to root my X16 Plus and I want to know if the methode you used (from Igeekphone) is valid for me, cause I'm french, and there is only spanish and english roms.
Can you help me ?
Thanks!
Reno.
I try my best rooting this tablet. But all attemps failed.
English rom should work also, it's android, you can change the language once you install the Rom.
Please, please, if you find some method to root our tablet, let me know. I just lost my hope.

Hi every one,
I'm using Obi SF1 and since no update is provided by manufacturers, I want to install custom rom. I googled for the same but did not find any thing useful. I read a thread about porting a rom to a device with similar configuration and I found a device Vivo x5 pro that is exact same to obi sf1. There are steps to port but Its not easy. I know I can play with android kitchen and all, but its messy and need a hell lot of time.
Please help me you brilliant minds out there. I'm really hoping something good from this thread.

Im thinking about buying this phone and i want to know if you have made any progress in gaining root access. Iv been searching for a root method for the past 2 days and the only thing iv found was that srsroot was now compatable with s727vl. but i havent been able to find any confirmation of srsroot working on this device. also is there a oem lock option in your developer option.
I dont know if it will help but there is a root method for s320vl on the xda form.

Thanks for the feed back, I have seen tutorial on rooting any j7 and it's variants. My problem with trying the root method is that I can't seem to find my stock firmware to reflask my phone if the root method fails and leave me with $150 paperweight
I found stock firmware for the galaxy j7 sky pro(SM-S727VL) since cant post links message me for link
Thanks for the feed back on the stock rom. I found it the other day. Just so you don't waste any time I have already tried srsroot and dr. Phone with no luck. Srsroot did return a successful root but after running root checker it returned no root access on this device. There is a standard adb root method that I want to try but it may be a few weeks b4 I have time to try it. I'm sure this phone will get rooted. It's very nice low budget phone that's gaining a lot of popularity. I also checked out twrp website and the did give a guid to build or code twrp for your particular device but that may be out of my league. I forgot to mention that also was desperate enough to try king root and it also failed to root my phone.
I also tried Kingroot and it also failed... hehe well it was worth a shot. I wish I had something new to report but unfortunately i do not...

If I can at least find what I need for a recovery i can let you know how I fare using adb on hiemdall with my Kali linux os. I can post any information about my success or failer afterwards.
