ROM from COOL1 on LeRee Le3 - Miscellaneous Android Development

Can I install ROM from Cool1 on LeRee Le3? I was looking for custom rom for LeRee Le3 and I didn't find. This phone works very slow on stock ROM. I have Letv X526 with the same parameters and it works fastly.

No one who didn´t try can answer you for sure.
As a rule No 1 you can´t flash a rom from other device onto a similar not even almost identical device.
Stock roms contains critical files from sensitive partitions that can perma-brick your device but with custom roms could be slightly different although a kernel from other device can soft/hard brick yours.
Despite you could install it you may expect a lot of issues cause it was builded for other device.
Said that if you want to take the risk you need to do the next before:
- Backup most important data.
- Download a stock/factory rom for your device if you need to restore it.
- Unlock bootloader.
- If you are going to flash a stock rom, flash only system, userdata partitions and the boot image you need to port it and keep the same kernel to avoid brick it.
Best you can do is search for a custom rom from a similar device and learn/read and try to port it for your device at least in the case that you can´t build it from the source for various reasons..

Yes you can

Doubts regarding installing custom roms ?

i finally got my phone rooted and bootloader unlocked. Now i wanted to get started with installing custom roms.
Some questions i have are:
What kernel to use for roms like Glade 2.0 or any other android 5.0+ roms . why can i not use the stock kernel
Which is the fastest ,cleanest available rom for this device.
Is recovery already present in all kernels.
IMPORTANT:If i install an ota from sony after unlocking my phone's bootloader, will it brick my phone permanently..?

1. Stock kernel is for Jellybean 4.2. Therefore you cannot use it for 5.0.
The roms already have the kernels , you just need something to flash these roms. Go to the development section and download the one click recovery installer app. Use philz touch recovery from that.
2. All these roms have their own advantages and limitations. It would be better if you read the reviews/bug reports in their threads. You'll get a better idea.
3. If you're talking about the above roms, then yes. They already have recoveries.

Questions before switching to custom ROM

Hello,
Since it doesn't seem that note pro P900 will get marshmallow, I am thinking of changing to a custom ROM. I have a few questions since I'm pretty new to this. I have a Note PRO 12.2 SM-P900.
1. Will I lose the S-pen function if I change to a custom ROM?
2. Which ROM is the best and it has to be stable? - as I'm using my tablet for school.
3. Is there a guide how to install a custom ROM?
First off I'm not sure what marshmallow has to do with going to a custom rom in your mind but just so you know, in order for a custom ROM that is based upon TouchWiz to exist there must be a stock ROM available for it. That is to say that if you want a marshmallow based custom ROM that has TouchWiz functionality baked into it then a stock marshmallow ROM needs to be released by Samsung. Just figured I'd make that point clear.
Secondly, technically S-Pen function isn't lost with AOSP based ROMS but the standard baked in functions are. Stuff like, the pop-up menu when you pull out the pen, action memo, smart select, image clipping etc. Those things are in TouchWiz so if they are important to you then stay away from AOSP based ROMS and look for TouchWiz based ones instead.
Third, there isn't a ton of development for the SM-P900 so options are limited as is support.
My suggestion is work on getting custom recovery with root first. If you're successful with that then consider going custom ROM after that.
The thing I said regarding marshmallow was more in the way that since Note Pro is not getting it then I have no reason to stay on the stock rom
Is it possible for you to suggest me a TouchWiz rom then? Since I use my S-pen and must be stable.
What happens if I fail getting a custom recovery with root? Will I brick the device?
Well to be honest I believe there's only one custom lollipop touchwiz based ROM for the SM-P900 right now and that's CivZ's ROM.

As far as where to start, like I said start with the basics which is custom recover (TWRP) and root. The reason root is needed is to retain the custom recovery, otherwise booting into stock system after installing the custom recover can often result in loss of that custom recovery. You need that custom recovery in order to install the custom ROM.
There's a guide to custom recovery and root here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...guide-install-official-lollipop-p900-t3154362
Worst case when trying to do the root and custom recovery is having to restore the device using a factory image and Kies so be prepared for that.
Most common issue with doing the custom recovery and root is missing the buttom combinations or a step in the instructions which can lead to boot loops and getting stuck on the boot splash screen. As long as one can get back into download mode though a custom recovery should still be able to be installed. As long as a custom recovery can be installed a custom ROM can be installed on the device. Of course this all assumes the ROM being downloaded is confirmed to be compatible with the device to begin with . . . try to install a wifi only ROM onto an LTE tablet or vice versa . . all bets are off.

Android version

I wanted to know if it is possible to change the version of android
By cyanogenmod or custom rom
If you could, could you give me a tip
How to do or tutorial something that helps?
First what is your device ? I think everybody have to start somewhere, so I have to know what is your device and see what is available for it.
But similar process for most of the cases ; root your device (try one click root like king root app or if it doesn't work try other methods for your device) then flash a custom recovery (TWRP) , into it you would be able to install (flash) custom Roms , and when it's done, just download the custom ROM , the Gapps according to the custom ROM Android version and your device architecture and then boot to recovery, make a Nandroid backup (backup everything in TWRP) then wipe system,data,cache,and delavik cache , flash the ROM, flash the Gapps and reboot.
But all the process (rooting, custom recovery etc) depends of your device
Is the galaxy lite 3 wanted to put the version
4.4.2 or +
Only that it does not exist nowhere, this custom or cyanogenmod
That's why I came here.
Way of having and making one or modifying it

CUSTOM RECOVERY FOR GIONEE F205, MT6739 CHIPSET

Hi,
I can't seem to find any custom recovery for gionee f205 with mt6739 chipset. So I tried porting similar mt6739 unofficial twrp img but it is also not working. Any custom recovery would be alright. Please help

You has experience flashing Custom Recoveries?
Share all specs from your device and let me know how you tried Porting.
Maybe need this? Gionee F205 / F205 Pro DA & Auth
Thanks, I have zero experience and have only started. I have already ported the custom recovery to my device using carliv image kitchen tool from here. The TWRP custom recovery is working perfectly but I can't confirm it as I have been searching for a week for a custom ROM(Oreo or later) to flash for my gionee F205(nougat) and can't find one. I have started trying to port the stock ROM of GIONEE F205 PRO which is Oreo and also treble enabled. Both have little differences but the same chipset(MT6739). But as of now nothing has worked. Could you help with that?
Or is there any custom ROM I can flash? Can I port from this non-treble device to an treble enabled ROM.
Also I tried Flashing the Stock rom of F205 pro excluding the Preloader using SP Flash Tools. But it return a error "PMT changed for ROM, it must be downloaded". So I tried to format except the bootloader and it too returns an error "ERROR : STATUS_SEC_WRITE_DATA_NOT_ALLOWED(0XC002000C).

You not need Custom ROM to test Custom Recovery. Now you need confirm that your file work good as you confusing here: "The TWRP custom recovery is working perfectly but I can't confirm it as.."
If you know that your TWRP work "perfectly" so the "issue" SOLVED. LOL
About Custom ROMs MT6739 stock Nougat:
I did a quick search in some places I know and the news is not good. I didn't really see any custom ROM for MT6739 with Nougat kernel.
Without a kernel upgraded to Android 8.1 you will not have much chance of installing the GSI ROM.
It is not just installing the stock ROM of another similar device or of the same company! It is about something that will take time and may have many errors to correct because companies that sell MTK devices do not provide all Source Code files to make a new kernel. So you can usually even ask someone with experience to do something, but without the full Source Code, then the chances are -100%.
So you can even have a Custom ROM from another MT6739 as long as it is with the Nougat kernel. Obviously there will be items to be solved for your device or suddenly not. As I have not seen any MT6739 Nougat with Custom ROM, then I cannot help further in this context.
If I had an MT6739 with Nougat then I would look at some MT6737 with Nougat because there are a lot of Custom ROMs for these. But remember that the MT6739 can have 32 bits (arm) or 64 bits (arm64) and that will influence something.
I myself have a 64-bit Nougat MT6737T that has RRMix Oreo 8.1 and works great!
So everything will depend on you and your time to do the PORT and the necessary tests because it will be a learning experience for yourself!
Good Lucky!

Can I flash persist.img of another rom?

When I'm in stock rom, auto rotation, auto brightness & sim card doesn't work. Maybe sensor problem.
But when I use custom rom , they works perfectly. I searched on internet and found that sensors are related to persist.img . So can I flash persist.img of custom rom on the stock one? Custom rom is android 10 & stock is 8.0.

This doesn't make sense. Have you tried flashing stock rom the official way? Perhaps you missed something.

Obviously! My device is moto e5. I used "Rescue & smart assistant tool" from official lenovo website(Motorola was owned by lenovo). That tool detected my device in fastboot & downloaded the official firmware automatically, also flashed it. Before using that tool , stock ROM was fine. Actually I used it to go back to stock condition. So I lost my first ROM(Sensor working one), and there is no way to get it back.
I also tried clean flash(By wiping the system, vendor,data etc. & trying again). That didn't help. Then I tried flashing the ROM with commands in platform tools. Still that issue.
This device is 2 GB ram. So lenovo people don't care. But It's my daily driver (As I'm 14)

Have you tried this custom rom?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-rom-for-moto-e5-play-james-xt1921-5.3806530/
If it works on this custom rom as intended, I would say it is a pretty good guess that this ROM persist image would be compatible with your original version of the stock rom.

That stock ROM will hard brick my device. Because that's for "play" variant. And my model number is XT1944-6 (Rare one). But yeah, I will download the stock ROM from outside the official tool. Thanks for the idea. But 1 question, can I flash rom of another build number? Because in internet, my device's stock ROM build number has 3 at last. But my build number's last digit is 6.
