[Question] How to share a rom based on a stock ROM

Hi All,
After buying a chinese telephone version DLI-AL10 - Honor 6a, I searched a version with google apps and did not find.
Then I created one based on the official B151 (EMUI 5.1) version. The rom is not rooted (I do not like it) and almost all chinese applications are removed.
I do not yet success to add other language. If someone can help me to do it with EMUI 5.1. I am interested.
I'd like to share this rom but I don't know how to do it.
thank you in advance for your help.

The only thing that I do not success to do is to add another language.

Samsung j7 2017 (SM-J730F, normal version) root with custom rom LineageOS and knox

Hello everyone,
I'm new to this community and I own a galaxy j7 2017 phone with Android 7.0 running on it. As we know the j7 2017 pro will get the oreo uptade I wonder if the classic version will have it. 5I've searchd a lot about this and it seems that it will, big question is when). So I wonder, if not, would it be possible to root and flash the phone with a unofficial LineageOS rom running oreo without breaking the knox warranty bit and if there is any side effect if it's broken (like banking app impossible to use, issue while charging the phone,...)
Thanks

Can I get LineageOS 16 (or a more updated Android ROM) for SM-J100VPP?

I have a Samsung Galaxy J1 (SM-J100VPP), and I want to update it from Android Lollipop. The only ROM I found that might be usable was for the SM-J100H, and I don't know whether it compatible or not. Does anyone know of a ROM (preferably LineageOS 16) I can use for it?

Stable Lollipop or Marshmallow for GT-N8010

Hi Note 10.1 2012 users!
I am looking for a custom ROM which would have decent stability without serious bugs. I need to use my gt-n8010 with an app that requires at least Android 5.0. The Bluetooth connection must work without any problems as well. Could you recommend something of a decent quality?
I have been trying to google but lots of links do not work these days. Bliss seems not to publish lollipop for 8010 anymore.
My Note is already rooted and with custom recovery software so I am ready to install a custom ROM I believe
Please help

Answer none really on this old product .
You require working link first and try .
Start by finding rom with working links then read rom s thread and use search thread bluetooth etc

I got installed this 20200105 Lineage 14.1 with Android 7.1.2 from secretwolf98 - thank you mate!
https://github.com/secretwolf98/project/releases
The only problem I have is that the most wanted app that I have I cannot see videos played. Could it be due to lack of some video codecs?
I have been trying to install some different videoplayers like MX player and VLC player but this does not help.
Any idea how to fix that?

Link on how to root with TWRP please. I'm planning to do this on my N8010 as well, because of Quarantine. Lol

Building Android 11 from source, need help with some questions.

I have been into installing custom ROMs and rooting Android for many years now, used many mid range Android devices, never tried to build one from source (did not have good enough hardware or broadband), now I have got both and want to try building ROM from source and got many questions, any help would be appreciated.
Important questions:​(Need these answers before I start downloading Repos)
Is it possible to create any Android version Rom for any device? like I used to have Moto G2, if I can get it's source code, can I build Android 11 Rom for it? or am I missing something here?
I own Realme 5 Pro now, if I build Android 11 and flash it, is there any chance it could hard brick my device?
If I'd built Android 11 for R5 Pro, how would I know it's for my device? can I flash that firmware on another device? or vice versa? I know that flashing other device firmware can hard brick your device.
What are the chances of getting bugs after flashing? like ril not working, or maybe settings wont open, camera wont work etc. and how can I fix them for my specific device?
How can I ensure that the specific build only works for R5 Pro and not other device? like do I have to sign it with specific code or anything like that? any idea?
Not so important questions:​(You can answer it if u know)
How much download is necessary to build from source? If u have built, is there any specific download size or different for specific devices?
Also if I want to build TWRP recovery for R5 Pro from scratch how would I go about doing that? and what about giving it a different theme style?
How long will it take for my specs pc to build? any estimated idea? (specs: 16gb ddr4 3600mhz ram, Ryzen R5 3700x, Nvidia 2060 Super, and lots of space)
Can I build this Rom to be flashed via recovery or is it has to be fastboot specific?
Can I build Android Kitkat or something old for newer devices?
So these are the initial questions that comes to my mind, I am posting this thread on some diff forums too, if u have any experience regarding this please do share, any help is appreciated, Thank you.
