Mate what we are talking about is how to test a ROM on ur PC Using a Emulator of ur android Device like S4 and test ur own Custom Roms whether they work or not. So we dont have to Install it on our device and have a Chance of HARD BRICK.
There is an EMULATOR called Eclipse which run ur ROMS on ur PC by Selecting the hardware TYPE or Device TYPE of ur model

Found something?

[Q] TD-1010 Stock ROM Extraction

I have Recently obtained and rooted a Double Power (DoPo) TD-1010 Tablet running ICS.
As it is a generic Chinese RK3066 tablet, I have not seen much support for it here.
I would like to know how to extract the necessary files needed to create a stock ROM for this device, in the event that I brick the device.
If all goes well, I plan to release the ROM, as there have been a select few others in need of it as well.
You have to be running on a Linux distro and use a tool called rkflashtool in conjunction with a script that will backup the .img's from your nand.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286305
The script is called simpledump.sh you will also need to compile a file called mkkrnlimg.c
These have to all be in in your usr/bin folder in Linux, your $Path.

4) Run The Program.
5) It Will Identify Your Phone '&&' Then Click On 'GREEN' Button Next To Your Phone's Icon. This Software Is In Chinese So Just Follow My Instructions.
6) Now Wait For Few Minutes '&&' Let The Rooting Procedure Be Carried On!

You Rock
Thanks for this man, I had a unmodified copy of that program and it was driving me nuts, just click and boom rooted.
You rock dude. Go the sub $100 5inch screened chinese android phones
Edit : I noticed in your old guide that you could remove the chinese superuser after installing english superuser and updating, I've done that
and the prompts now come up from the english superuser, but the chinese one has made itself a system app somehow and I can't delete it,
is there a solution for that or should I just disable it and ignore it.

So you get english superuser prompts when something asks for root? Try using Titanium Back up to uninstall the chinese superuser app.

Also - for most devices needing an ADB driver, just install snap pea from here: www.snappea.com It will install a generic ADB driver that will work just fine with any and every device I have used it on so far!

How to run my own custom rom(Marshmallow/Nought) on pc ?

I want to test my own build custom rom before flashing to the phone itself.
Flashing the rom everytime on the phone then check for errors is messy.
So, how can I test/run my rom on pc first? I have googled it but i can't get my rom working on emulator.
Step by step guide for scratch would be helpful
btw: I am working on Marshmallow/Nought
Using Moto G 2015
