Dear All
As I mention in the titile. I'm looking for newer version of Android OS for my phone SingTech Sophire Xtream X40. My phone currently on Android 2.3.6. CPU 1GHz, RAM 256MB, Dual Sim, One is 3G, another is 2G. When I go to System Update, it say "Your firmware is up to date". I'm afraid that more new released Apps will require higher firmware since version 4 was released already. Is there custom ROM version 3 or 4 that should work on my model?
is there any way to get kitkat on mtk6577 1 ghz processor with 512 mb ram???
any one knows the method or any one has source code??
Still nothing...
I was researching for a very long time, but I didn't find any way to port Android 4.4 on MTK 6577 devices... I think that the latest version of Android for this chipset is Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean- for example: I have Alcatel One Touch 5035D and the latest stock ROM is based on Android 4.1.1 and the latest custom ROM is based on Android 4.2.2...

We a huge number of people use this phone Please someone make the ROM Android KitKat 4.4 or heigher
almost impossible except a miracle, rather u l need to request mediatek to release kitkat supporting kernel for the processor in these phones
Finally, Android 4.4 KitKat is available for MediaTek MT6589 chipset
There is many reason why Android 4.4 KitKat did not come to our Android device, because, some device that running with mediaTek chipset did not provide appropriate upgrade to Android 4.4 KitKat.
Finally, there is domestic smartphone manufacturer has successfully upgrade their system to Android 4.4 KitKat using CyanogenMod 10.2, and now the device that using MediaTek MT6589/MT6589T is capable to using higher version of Android.
Some people in XDA Developer forum has been built the Custom ROM based on CyanogenMod 11 that targeting for device which powered by MediaTek MT6589 processor, and now they ready to update their Android to KitKat.
Here is Installation guide, taken from XDA Developer Forum:
- Install new CWM linked in this thread (for installation see in: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show….php?t=2440304 ) – if you Do not have it yet, make sure you backup recovery.img
- Make a backup with CWM – you will want to go back to stock, don’t blame me if you don’t have a backup!!!
- Copy the cm_stairway-otaXYZ.zip to the phone and flash the zip with CWM
- Copy the gapps to Phone and install the ZIP (see: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps – this is CM11)
- Wipe

Seeking help to Upgrade Blu Life Pure Mini
Looking to upgrade my Blu Life Pure Mini 4.2.1 to 4.4 or higher but it is proving very difficult to find a stock firmware or a custom rom for this version phone. I know its old and unpopular but I would a appreciate any help. At this rate i wonder if a stock firmware really exist or was a custom ROM ever created for this particular phone. If not could a custom ROM from a similar device work i.e the Blu Life Pure or one of the more popular Blu device be used? I just need to be pointed in the right direction

Don't install any custom ROM that was not SPECIFICALLY designed for your specific phone. You will end up with a brick. And it may be a hard brick meaning you will need to buy a new phone. Don't do it! You've been warned.

So what are my options? Give up or is there something I can do. Can i extract the stock ROM from my phone then edit it to create a custom ROM? and How would i create a custom ROM with the same UI but a later android version? If its not out there can it be created?

Yes if it's not out there it can indeed be created. But there's a huge, steep learning curve and you'll need all the right tools and resources. You can search on Googly for tut9rials and discussions about porting ROMs.
If you're motivated, check-out the thread for Alcatel Pixi 3 here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3193624
You can search through it for creating/porting of custom ROMs. There are some posts on there with links to various tutorials and resources. Plus you'll find some of the brave people who engage in that activity. You can befriend them and ask for their help.

I have ported various ROMs for Micromax unite 3 but noticed that it isn't having any of Marshmallow updates .
It is my request to all the developers out there if they can develop a marshmallow update for my device. Below are the specifications.

1.3 GHz Processor
8MP back n 2 MP front camera
1 GB RAM
8 GB ROM
