[ROM] Pantech SKY Vega Racer 3 IM-850K (and L/S) ROM based on Latest Stock Kitkat

Instead of rooting, installing CWM and then installing the ROM, it’s better to just:
• Copy the downloaded ROM to Internal Memory or SDCard (modem file also for L/S versions)
• Download universal fastboot/adb drivers (link provided)
• Turn Off the phone, Press VolUp+VolDown and press power until you are in the bootloader
• From there select Fastboot
• Browse for drivers when prompted and install them (you may have to forcefully install them)
• Download recovery (link provided) and run CWM 6.0.4.8.bat (recommended) or TWRP 2.8.6.0 (may not work well with stock based roms) and the phone should boot straight into recovery
• Factory Reset, Wipe Cache and Dalvik
• Formatting System, Data and Cache is up to you
• Install ZIP and when you are about to reboot it’ll ask to disable flash recovery, select NO to keep the stock recovery as you can boot into custom recovery directly anyways
• Stock recovery is a better option for factors resets and adds a little more security of data in case phone is lost/stolen
• Doesn’t matter if you are coming from AOSP or any other ROM. This ROM also installs Modem, Stock Recovery etc…
Enjoy the stock KitKat sweetness 
NOTE: You may also try installing the ROM on L/S versions but make sure to install Modem file right after installing the ROM. Links for modem files are also provided here for convenience

[GUIDE] Install custom ROM without computer

Hello everyone. I have come up with a lazy way to install custom ROM (such as Cyanogenmod) in *most* phone (I tried this on S3mini and Galaxy MEGA). Please note that this method moght not work on your phone and I am not responsible for bricking your phone.
Things you need:
-Your phone, fully charged
-Your precious time (About 30-60minutes)
-One click root app (I use Kingroot, download it with apk) (You may use other apps, of course)
-TWRP manager from playstore
-ZIP file of TWRP in latest version (V3?)
-ZIP file of the custom ROM matching the version of your device
-ZIP file of GApps matching the version of the custom ROM (Google for gapps and download it)
Steps:
1. Backup your personal information
Copy your personal information such as music, photo, documents out of your phone (e.g.: Cloud drive, USB, SD card). Safety first.
2. Root your phone
Download Kingroot and install the apk with package installer. Run the app and follow the instruction in the app to root.
3. Install TWRP manager
After rooting, install TWRP manager. In the app, install TWRP that match your device.
4. Create a backup for your phone
Boot your phone into recovery (Every phone have different method, so please google about this). In TWRP, press 'Backup' to create the backup.
5. Flash the latest version of TWRP
As the TWRP manager does not offer the latest version of TWRP, you have to flash the latest version by installing ZIP. The latest version of TWRP can install ROM with higher success rate.
To do this, press 'Install' in TWRP. Find the ZIP file of TWRP in latest version and install it.
6. Reboot your device to Recovery mode
7. Wipe your device
In TWRP, press 'Wipe'. Select Cache, Dalvik Cache, System and Data partition and wipe them.
8. Flash custom ROM
In TWRP, press 'Install'. Select the Custom ROM ZIP and install it.
9. Flash GApps
Most custom ROM does not have Google apps such as play stote, so you have to install it.
In TWRP, press 'Install'. Select the GApps ZIP and install it.
10. Wipe Cache and dalvik cache
In TWRP, press 'Wipe'. Select Cache and Dalvik Cache partition and wipe them.
11. Reboot your device
Now the ROM should be properly installed. First boot might take longer, so please wait patiently.
Shall you brick your phone, try to recover by using backup created in step 4.
PS: I am a newbie here and this is my first guide

While you have to wipe your device to flash the custom rom, it will wipe your data, including the actual Gapps and rom. This shows that your method won't work.

Download this folder and use one of the two ".bat" files. Boot into Bootloader via Volume Down and Power Button. --
It will flash S048 Firmware of our Lenovo P2, after the flash-process is finished it will boot up on its own. Recommended: Do all the ota updates via ota app.
Or: Boot into bootloader, via adb cmd prompt use: fastboot boot lineagerecovery.img , then use reboot menu to reboot into twrp. Clean Wipe phone(Wipe system,data, cache and dalvik-cache Partitions) and try flashing your Rom etc. again.

Can´t Install Any Custom ROMs Please Help [BOOTLOOP]

Hello, so, my problem is same as title says.
I´ll try to write it as short as possible.
I tried to install Resurrection Remix, Lineage OS, Arrow OS, BootLeggers ( All are unofficial builds for my Redmi 6 ), but everytime I got the constant rebooting bootloop, so I need to go to TWRP and flash Official MIUI ROM
Here are my installation steps for Resurrection Remix ( Pretty same as In this Tutorial ) :
1. - I went to TWRP ( LR. Team TWRP 3.3.1 )
2. - It was showing Internal Storage (0MB), so I click on Wipe - Format Data - yes
3. - After that also Wipe - Advanced Wipe - I selected Dalvik / ART Cache, System, Cache, Data, Vendor
4. - I moved RR Flashable .zip file and Magisk v19.3 from my PC to phones Internal Storage (via USB Cable)
5. - I clicked on Install - RR-P-v7.0.2-20200111-cereus-Unofficial.zip - Add more zips - Magisk-v19.3.zip
6. - After that, I clicked on Wipe cache/dalvik, checked if I´ve got any errors and clicked on Reboot
7. - After that, phone started to restart around every 5 seconds until I went to TWRP and Installed Official MIUI ROM
BONUS. - Tried also on second try to flash MIUI Firmware before RR .zip file, but the results were same.
Also I don´t want Gapps in my phone so i didn´t flash them.
With other ROMs it was same, always bootloop. Here are all .zips, links to forums, tutorials that I followed.
So please message me what´s the issue, especially while installing Resurrection Remix, because this is the ROM that I would like to install the most.

I know it's too late for reply I'm just posting this so that others (like myself) can see this. Lets keep the community for this phone alive!
Install MIUI V10.4.4.0 (I found that this version works for me), Disable DM verity (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ncrypt-disk-quota-disabler-11-2-2020.3817389/) and finally wipe data and install your custom rom.
It will bootloop on the first boot so wait a few seconds then force reboot
