Hi, I was wondering if you can help. I currently sell some MTK based phones. These phones do not have many updates.
What I am looking for is someone who can make me a custom rom for them, and then update them whenever possible via OTA, this way my customers can get security updates etc...
Obviously I am willing to pay for this. I have SP-Flashtools firmware images for the phones. They are currently based on MTK6735 and I was hoping that someone could port a Android 6.0 rom with OTA faciility.
Could you point me to the right forum to find some professionals that can help me please?

I would like to install something like cyanogenmod on my phone. There are no builds specifically for any kyocera phones that I can see. I was wondering if I could use an image built for another phone so long as it ran the same version (4.4.2), build (kvt49l), and kernel (3.4.x)
The phone was easy enough to root, but would like some of the benefits of an aftermarket os.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
Hi!
First...no, you can't use a rom not made for your specific device. Not without a very high risk of bricking your device. Definitely not a wise idea.
I found a thread on rooting, http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/rooting-roms/root-guide-kyocera-hydro-vibe-t2831228
But no roms for your device on XDA that I can find. Feel free to ask here if you want though....

I searched more sites for rom but didn't find
Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
If you want a ROM to be made for your device you have 3 options
1)Wait for someone that has your device and the knowledge to build a ROM.
2)Find someone with the knowledge that has your device and get them to build the ROM.
3)Find someone with the knowledge and donate a device like yours to them so they can test the ROM they build.
4)Find instructions for how to build or port the ROM yourself(you will probably get a ROM faster this way than waiting for or finding someone else to do it).
Most of the time a device must be a popularly used device to have custom development for it. Low end, low spec, unpopular and cheaper devices usually don't get any development unless a normal user decides to develop for the device themselves. If you like being able to customize your devices then I suggest you research the devices you buy before you buy them, that way you can find the custom stuff available for it before you buy it. Never assume that there is something available for every android device out there be cause that is not true. There are many android devices that never get any development of any kind.

Hi!,
I'm planning to buy one second hand phone for learning things related to Xposed framework and developing my own tweaks.
Since different manufactures are implementing their own custom ROM, can anyone help me which phone to buy.
I'm from India. There are deals for Micromax phones running lollipop 5.1
Want to know if there are stable releases of Xposed framework for this, before I buy.
Thanks in advance

My smartphone is a Blu Life Pure Mini with mt6589t SoC.
I was reaserching ways to port and install a custom rom with Android Kitkat at least in it, because I want to be able to play Pokemon Go. (please, you must help me haha)
Anyway, I found that I need to update not only the rom, but yet to Root it, to update the Kernel and to install a kitkat compatbile custom Recovery. THEM, I will be able to port and install the rom in my phone.
As far as I know, Blu released a kikat update for Blu Life Play, that uses mt6589 SoC, but not for Blu Life Pure Mini (mt6589t ... is it compatible with a mt6589 rom without the T?).
I was able to install custom roms before in popular old phones like Samsumg Galaxy S and Ace, and a random Sony device before, but because everything was almost premade by some mercyfull souls arround the internet. The problem is that Blu Life Pure Mini is a not a very popular device, so nobody did that things to make my life easier yet.
Then I decided I could go arround and, maybe with a lot of help of cool guys of the android community, make it for this device and help other people that have it and can't update their phones.
So, what do I need?
- A mt6589t Kernel compatible with Android Kitkat or higher;
- A custom recovery. To make it faster and easier, I found a topic of a guy that did some work arround it in 2014, but I can't understand how to port it by myself very well in his post. And to do it his way, I must have the kernel that I can't find anywere.
His topic here in XDA forums: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/guide-how-to-port-custom-cwm-based-t2970004
- A root tutorial for Blu Life Pure mini. My googling habilities are failling on me, then maybe you could help me doing it faster and better. ><

I recently bought a Moto X Pure from an XDA Member which should be here at the beginning of next week.
I used to own a GS5 which as you know is pretty locked down. Locked bootloader, hard to root, if you updated you're screwed, ect. So! I've been out of the rooting game for a while now and only really dipped my toes in to begin with.
My question is, can anyone explain the basics and benefits of a rooted device? Specifically, Xposed Framework/Modules, Root detection with Android Pay, and maybe some things that i've gotta try out with a fully unlocked android device. I plan to install an AOSP ROM but im gonna try out stock Moto X first and see how i like it.
Another short question I have regarding Android Pay, i've heard that some root techniques make Android Pay not work, some are fine, some custom ROMs wont work, AOSP roms will, can somebody clarify all this for me?
Thanks guys, you're always helpful. Glad to be back.
