[Q] Compatible custom roms for Alcatel OT-903? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I am new to XDA-Developers and I'd like to ask if there are any custom roms compatible with Alcatel OT-903.
I have successfully rooted this phone and I can see people are having difficulties doing this when I search "Alcatel OT-903". I understand it's not a very popular phone and so that's probably why there aren't any roms for it.
BTW just so you know I'm not very familiar with all these developing and hacking stuff ..
If anyone can give me any roms or guides I would be really thankful .
Some of it's specs (it's a low-end one ):
OS: Android OS, v2.3 (Gingerbread)
Chipset: MTK 6573
CPU: 650 MHz
DISPLAY SIZE: 240 x 320 pixels, 2.8 inches
Li-Ion 1300 mAh battery
Thanks.

Please, can you tell me how I may root Alcatel 903? I have also a ZTE Blade, that's rooted, but I also want to root and the 903!!!
Please reply the sooner you can!!!

Try super one click. I had no success on my OT-903 but I think that is to do with my pc. There is also one click root.

Also I am looking for a root method for my Alcatel OT-903. I would be greatful if you could share your method with me

Sorry for late answer! I 've already tried both of them and i had no succes super one click stops at shell rooting 07 and one click root never succeeds.

I have root and custom recovery. I could do with some help with deodexing. X-ultimate doesnt seem to do the trick. I think i need a custom kernel for full adb, but i'm not sure. If anybody can help that would be great. The ot 903 is mtk6573 based if thats any help.

How did you root it?

Can you help me rooting it, or gie any rom?

I used EROOT which you can find if you search on google. The instructions are in Chinese, I think, but thankfully theres a big button that says
Root. Just wait for it to load up, press root, it takes seconds. The phone wont reboot, superuser will be installed but none functional until its rebooted manually. After reboot, update busybox. I cant find any roms, but im trying to deodex to customize stock rom. Hope this helps.

hi Again
I have been requesting for many days for the rooting of this device
Please developers, come on board and help us
thanks
Never heard of this company before. Is that a Chinese company or something?
Anyway, I can chip in, but I don't have the device. I almost always manually root my Android phone after reverting to stock ROM (I'm a bit of a Linux terminal freak ), so I know the general process. I need someone with the device and a Linux computer (yes! I need someone with a Linux computer! Windows or Mac won't do!) with some experience in command line interface.
Who's willing? Oh, and yeah, make sure your Linux box has all the essential Android development environment set up.
PM me if you're willing to try.

I like the device, no offense, for that price it is a great phone. It is just that i am so used to rooted phones and I thought this would be a cakewalk for me. But this is hard to crack
Did you try Bin4ry? I am scared i nearly bricked my phone trying all sorts of things.
Now i need a credible advice

I understand u need to install only compatible custom recovery not just any cwm or twrp. it may brick/bootloop or device if recovery is not compatible with your phone.
But main issue is to root the device first so that u can modify recovery or the system, but unfortunately we don't know how to root this dream d1. I ve tried so many methods but failed.

tried installing some cool games and apps but it dont install completely.... wat should i do to install without this problem??
Try
Root Checker from playstore to check root. If all ok, Try to install an app that requires root, on installing it should ask for permission.
Grant permission it should install ok.
Can you give me the exact model make and number? usually under battery and i will search further.

S5.5 rooted, w/ CTR
I had sucessfully rooted S5.5 over a month a ago.. to be honest, I'm not 100% anymore about the tool, but I believe it was Root Genius that managed to "break thru"
Had problems getting the phone drivers working, and the "regular" ADB still doesn't work for me.. I can, however, piggy-back on Shuame (I think it runs a "helper") - keep it running in the back and all other ADB connections will also work fine (MTK Droid tools, etc..). I also managed to port Carliv's Touch recovery.. the "touch" is not working ATM, but one can still use vol up/dwn & pwr w/o a problem

Hi friend at least post some web link. Please post the tool name with the help of you rooted Gionee S5.5.
As per your reply i bought Lenovo K900 for my self. I rooted it and lower the CPU frequency to 933Mhz with this setting the battery life is dramatically increased and no more heating issue at all. I did this through "Rom tool box pro" u can buy this on play store. When ever i play game i increase the frequency and enjoy the speed and performance and for routine use i decrease the frequency. But my Sister wants to buy only Gionee S5.5 and rooting is must so please post the link or rooting tool name to help me and others.

[Q] Alcatel OT View 5.0 Root and Rom Help

Hey guys,
Long time no post, Haven't been on here since my Desire HD was still in it's prime.
I was wondering if anyone could help me out with what resources I could use/ read/ learn about to help me on my quest to root this phone (Alcatel OT View 5.0).
I bought it on a whim today, and my first impression was "Damn, this needs stock android"
I haven't been able to find much about it at all, in searches here, or anywhere else.
If needed I can post all the tech details about the phone if it will help send me in the right direction.
Thanks very much for any help, it is very much appreciated.
*Edit* Thus far I have tried Towelroot v3, SuperOneClick v2.3.3, and Framaroot v1.9.3. None of which have worked.
i did some searches and found no thing but you can try frameroot or towerlroot or z4root and then download supersu and install it

None of those options worked unfortunately..
Just in case it helps, it has a 4core ARM Cortex A7 chip, Revision r0p3, the GPU is a Mali-400 MP, The board is a YARISXLDS, kernel architecture armv7l, kernel version 3.4.5 (vAT9-0)
