I have a bootloader unlocked Sprint 7 Pro 5G on the way. I was hoping there will be any ROM support or maybe even a custom kernel? Are there any that work right now?
I can be be of some assistance in testing and helping debug if any developer wants to take a stab at it. My Pixel 2 XL will be my daily driver for a while so I don't need a working device while we debug.
We have quite a lot of progress being made, yes.
Check your PMs.

I did the official chevron unlock and I still can not put custom roms on my arrive. And i cant advance configure it. Is any one working on this? I hurd there was a rom being developed called gold C for this. But i have not seen anymore about it. Any one working on the Arrive.

I believe the gold c rom is for the gprs htc pro 7
I have the sprint arrive here in the us its a cdma device
At this time theres no custom bootloader to flash a custom rom
Ansar is one of the few who works on cdma wp7 devices
Thanks jaygriggs
Thanks for answering my question. Hope someone works on this soon.
DFT - the people who made the original HTC ROM flashing capability for WP7 - are working on support for CDMA phones. Give them some time. The work is already in progress, and may even have reached a working prototype stage. It'll take time to test beore they publish it, though.
Well, I just spent 6 hours trying to root my .629 droid global 2, I did it. I was wondering where can I get a list of kernels I can use with stock 2.3.4? OR can I even do this? Sorry I spent hours looking online for kernels and I couldn't find anything. I did own a optimus 1 and have some experience with this stuff but is it much different than going into recovery and flashing the kernel?
In fact if someone would be nice enough to convince me to get a rom, this would be much easier. but after looking into it, it seems ridiculously hard to put a rom on these things unless someone can tell me different? I'm looking for something like CM 7 because that was what I was used to on my LG O1. Unless the stock rom on this right now would get me better battery than the CM 7? Thank you in advance.
Nowhere.
There are no custom kernels.
The bootloader is locked and encrypted.
You cannot install a custom kernel.
There are custom ROMs though and they don't really need a lot of work to install.

isnt the bootloader bypassed by boostrapper/rom manager?
I was just about to install CM7 after reading your post and another member was saying it won't work because I'm on GSM and I need to flash to froyo and then to cm7?
if you need to band unlock http://forum.xda-developers.com/sho...d and Band unlock Droid 2 Global with 629 ROM
if you just need a rom that works well, with gsm
I'll add link http://rootzwiki.com/topic/8951-gsm-data-status-for-various-roms/

Hi folks,
I have HTC 8X that I got from AT&T. Is it possible to flash a custom ROM or international ROM to it? It is very annoying to wait for the portico update. International ones gets the update faster and have internet sharing enabled by default as far as I know. Is it possible to flash international or custom ROM to such phone? My phone is developer unlocked if that helps...
Have a look in the development section.

there is no custom ROMs yet, right? I was looking for anything that can be so called Custom Rom but I found only unlocking stuff on so on. I need something to see folder system of my phone and to be able to install XAPs. Any ideas? is it even possible for future?
There are no custom ROMs yet. However I've seen wp8 running on the HD2, I've seen some progress made by our awesome devs here in 8x dev forums and wp8 dev forums.
If you'd like things to go faster, however, you have a couple of options now, you can start with downloading the wp8 emulator, a few stock roms from this or the nokia lumia forums, mount with ImgMount Tool from AnDim (wp8 dev section), and start improvising a way to make your desires work! Good luck!
There is hope

This guy is awesome!
In my understanding (correct me if I am wrong) sgs7 us version with SD820 have locked bootloader and anything custom is really hard to do. People need to hack phone to do anything. With International Exynos version on other hand it's not as bad. We had custom recovery on first day and I do see ROM out there but it's slimmed down version of stock.
So it is possible to install custom Roms, but why there is none available. For years I've been using cm and I would very much to start using it again.
Thank you.

First of all, there are a few roms already available for the exynos variant, but they are all TW based. The reason why there are no other roms, is that the Qualcomm s7's bootloader is locked and it will stay that until samsung decides to unlock it. As for the exynos variant, the source code is not open which makes it very difficult for developers to build a rom. So before buying this phone, you should have done more research, because even if developers are able to build a cool rom like Cyanogenmod, then there is a very little change you will be able to use it as your daily driver. So this means that samsung is not developer friendly and it won't change until samsung decides otherwise.
This is the Development forum, not your own personal Q&A. Put threads in correct sections. Reported.
Lol it is q&a section buddy.
Thank you for your answer. I've gotten new Exynos Variant from work and I was thinking putting some custom ROM on it. Thank you for explaining this to me.
Cheers

Supposedly our device can be bootloader unlocked right? I mean I tried going through the process on Nokia's website and it allowed me (tho I didn't go all the way cuz my device is registered and I'm afraid they'll void me the warranty as soon as they give me the unlock bootloader code) so why doesn't this device have more custom ROMs?
I sold my Mi A2 and bought this device and although its a much MUCH better device than A2, I do miss the many custom ROMs that device has available, and it baffles me because A2 and this device share most of the same specs. I know the bootloader unlocking issue WAS an issue months, if not years ago, because HMD didn't allowed it. Is there a lack of source code for the development of custom ROMs or this device doesn't interest the community what-so-ever?
There is no official way to unlock bootloader, only unoffical.
Nokia 7+ has treable support, so any a/b GSI should work.
Who would want a custom ROM on an Android One phone?

First, you may have not read a lot on our beloved XDA forums/community, otherwise you would know some better behavior. So, get some manners.
Second, usually, you wish for/use a cleaned and better responsive custom ROM to get away from bloated **** ROMs installed by phone manufacturers, but with an Android One device you do not have to. At least, I hear that is why loads of people use/buy them (including me). Unlocking the boot loader and installing Magisk is nice, but what else do you need then?

I actually prefer a more AOSP Pixel version of Android than anything else (Pixel Experience), plus Mi A2 already has a custom rom based on Android Q's beta, something this device does not have.
