I am new to rooting.
0.-By upgrading this hardware to Android 7.1 I try to benefit from the latest tech. standard.
But I have no idea whatsoever what s feasible at all. -- Oh, please don't reply: "You can do everything." What is everything? Where can I learn it?
1.-Is this software compatible with Rom CM14.1 Nougat Android 7.1 Night Owl Alpha 6, I downloaded from here?
2.-I downloaded ClockworkMod.
3.-I saved instructions like "How to Root Android 4.1.2 with KingoRoot.apk

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

ive had issues with my mic on samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0 after installing cm 10.1 nightly. the person im calling cant hear me using the mic of the headphone. Someone found a solution but did not elaborate enough on the steps. im new to android. maybe you guys could help me. heres what she said----- "I've fixed the problem with flashing the baseband\modem from the latest firmware matching exactly to my device and region from sammobile.com.
You can flash the complete stock firmware image via odin and than reflash your favorit custom rom via cwm,, or you just extract the modem out of the firmware and only flash this by keeping your actual rom." ----
i dont get what she means, maybe someone could help. here's the link to the solution. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=40218465#post40218465
PLEASE HELP. thank you.
this has been the closest for me in solving this issue. i hope someone can help. any tutorial and download links will be helpful, i dont know what to look for in google since i dont know what i should be doing. thank you.

Dude, i'll try to help but i'm having my tea right now so bear with me!
1. don't bump your own thread - XDA rules states you can't bump a thread for 24 hours! Learn the rules!
2. Go to 'about tab' take a screen shot and upload it here so i can see what version of the tab, modem, build you're using etc,
3. you ever thought of reverting back to stock ? 4.2.x Roms are no where near stable enough (in my opinion) for daily drivers!
i cant find a tutorial online on how to go back to 4.1.x from 4.2.x. my stock rom was 4.0.4 and i dont like the UI of ICS. its very lousy. there arent that many tutorials about android. and most of the tutorial arent step by step.

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. ?
Dear all,
I have tried in the past to backup and flash roms on some devices using Windows with some success. Now I have completely switched to Linux and have not been able to find a guide that would allow me to get started.
I have a Lenovo mobile (A806) that comes with good hardware but a crappy version of Android 4.4.2 that makes the user experience very unpleasant.
I am trying to figure out how to root my device, backup the rom currently on my device, find a custom rom (possibly based on Android 5),
flash it, and eventually troubleshooting common problems one might have. It might as well be that there are many other things I need to know, so please just let me know: I am here to learn.
I have no idea where to start to do this from Linux, so I would really appreciate if you folks could point me to the right tools/resources,
and help me getting started.
Thanks a lot in advance to all of you

Unfortunately, there is not much about your device on xda.
You can check this thread: Lenovo Golden Warrior A8 (A806) root.
There are some users which have managed to root this device.
Maybe they can help.
Good luck !

Hi Luca,
here is a thread about flashing ROMs on LINUX: Flash Rom under Linux.
And here another one: step 1 and 3 under linux ?
... but they are originally for another devices.
Here is a better guide: [ROM][DEV][REF] Heimdall Firmware Packages S4 LTE+ I9506 ... as you can see, it's for Samsung devices.
But it's a good read anyway.
Many thanks
I hope I can flash something soon!
Cheers,
Luca

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.

Hi guys
I'm looking to update the firmware on this old tablet as it's a bit out of date and a bit sluggish it's been a long time since I've rooted or flashed anything android. I own a Linux satellite receiver and have flashed firmware images bootloader etc so hoping this will help me. I'm basically looking for a guide from start to finish to bring this tablet a bit more up to date, hope somebody can point me in the right direction.
Thanks.

Check if these 2 ROMs are enough stable for you: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...11-cm-14-1-based-android-4-4-4-7-1-2.3648887/
Thanks matteo I think I'd like to try your build I've read quite a few of your post and you seem to know quite a lot about these tablets all I need to know now is what to download and how to flash it
Thanks

What to download is in the thread (rom, gapps and twrp), and you can find instructions all over the internet. I've wrote something in my thread of lineage 16 and twrp on how to install them (lineage 16 has the same instructions as the other ROMs I've linked you) too. What I advice you is to understand well what you have to do before doing everything. Otherwise, it can happen that you'll come back and say: "device doesn't boot anymore, what to do now?"
Yes I'm trying to gather as much information as I can so as to avoid any problems when I actually try to do the flash process. I will read up some more.
Thanks again

Hey Matteo- do you think this ROM is still the best option for those of us with a SM-T230 / DEGAS ? There isn't a proper LineageOS build is there? Appreciate the knowledge, thank you.

Hi, I will ask maybe stupid question, since knowledge is 0 in terms of android, but is there a possibility to upload some ROM with android 9.0 to T230? (I even do not know if I haven't made mistake in question )
Anyway I need 9.0 for app and already rooted device following step by step instruction.
Thx in advance

No, since there aren't any devs with enough interest/knowledge to make them.
Hi there. I have found an old SM-T230. I need to install some apps, which require at least Android 7. Will the above Custom ROMS work in that way, that i can install apps build for Android 7 or higher? I fear, i have to find some GApps but thats a other story... if someone can assist to find the right ROM and GApps, this would be nice...
