Quick question regarding cyanogenmod. - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey. I have this Orange Hiro and I want to install cyanogenmod 11. The problem is that the phone isn't officially compatible. I can't seem to find an unofficial app neither. If i install it like this, the phone will be bricked? Can you go back to the original rom/os afterwards? Thanks!

Unfortunately there is no CM11 for your device . There is nothing dangerous about an unofficial build but it has to be for your device (so s4 Roms wont work on your Hiro). If you install an incompatible ROM chances are that the device will soft-brick (ex: bootloop). A soft bricked device can be unbricked if stock rom is flashed. Not really sure about your device but I highly recommend you do NOT flash incompatible roms / recoverys / bootloaders.

Alright. Thank you for the response. Do you know where I could get any custom roms for my hiro? Officially compatible. Thanks again.

It's gonna be difficult to find it atm... You may add your "+1" on CM forum.
BTW you can start by rooting it through Framaroot.

Already rooted. Thank you for your posts!

The kernal I would recommend is Entropy512's for the SGP. The tutorial on there is very easy and very stright foward so you shouldn't have any problems at all. I would recommand the rom I'm currently using but the dev removed the link because he is updating the rom.

Nothing in particular's bad w/r/t the stock ROM. It just isn't most people's cup of tea. Chip's ROM is pretty cool, though I'm limited in experience (onyl stock, Eryigit, and Chip's ROMs, to date) What I like about Chip's ROM is that it's up to date and is constantly in development, the style of it (ICS-theme), and that most of the bloatware's been removed. It's very operational and customizable. Plus, many of the "hacks" that he's introduced via init.d or elsewhere (courtesy of St. Matis; I've added a few of my own and deleted a few). He's edited the framework (or gathered it from another source) to get rid of that pesky "Cell Standby" thing that shows up as a battery drain (functionally irrelevant, but annoying nonetheless) and included a number of apps as stock that many here would install anyway. Look at the thread yourself and check its features

Disinstall all driver, make a clean install of the USB driver 1.5.6, install ODIN 1.8 and thats all...You have all you need to write a custom kernel from the stock one.
In Downolad mode the player is visible just from ODIN...i remember...
Otherwise, after installing the c.kernel, from the device recovery you can do all (c.rom-stock-kernel.zip addon).

[Q] How to trick the phone manufacturers?

Hey guys,I hope to solve my problem.I read threads regarding this but couldnt understand.
So here it is,I got a micromax A87 phone a month ago,then I rooted it.I removed the manufucturers RAM hungry apps.Everything was fine,but from yesterday on call(both incoming and outgoing) I cant here the voice,but they can hear mine.Though I can hear them on speaker and headphone.
So now I want to give to company service center so what should I do?
1.Flash the phone with custom rom or
2.Unroot and install all those preinstalled manufacturer apps
I would like to do the second method.So my question is in which method I can fake that device was not rooted so I can reclaim my warranty? suggest if there is another method and how does the manufacturer come to know if i rooted the phone?
Try a factory custom rom. Then remove root. Most manfacturers dont care though.

Unroot your phone and give it to service center.
Sent from my GT-I9003 using xda premium
There are two solutions
1.you could find another member with your phone and get the apps that you deleted and unroot and give it to service!
Or
2. You could flash stone random rom and brick you device completely and give it back to service saying that it won't start up and hope they don't find out!
Personally I'd suggest you go for 1

[Q] How to upgrade to custom 4.x.x roms?

Hey Guys,
I have a Bell Galaxy note I7I7M with T-Mobile Modem Using on Mobilicity Network In Canada. At present, I am using Padawan V8 4.0.4 rom. Works perfectly fine but would like to try some other Custom Jelly Bean Roms. My previous attempts to flash went in vain with issues such as not able to pick up signal (on SlimBean) and not able to Call and recieve phone calls even with signals ( on Jedi Rom). I guess, probably will be a radio issue. Some one please guide me how to Flash and update to custom Jelly bean Roms.
Thanks a lot.
Cheers

Did not work?
Right here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2147095
I'm on 4.2.2 and had to change kernel in order to have call audio. Flappjaxxx kernel is another one you could try, but it didn't work well for me.
I'm using Feb 29 build of the kernel which in the forum for my current ROM had the most feedback.
Basically just download the kernel, put it on root of sd card and boot into recovery. Wipe cache and then install zip from sd and choose kernel. When done reboot. Always make a backup just in case
This boot will take longer than usual. Don't worry. When booted, it will say something like "upgrading android" or something
After that, enjoy.
Someone please correct me if I am wrong at any point! I am fairly certain that ^ those steps are correct, but just in case
And lastly, I hope this doesn't become a "best kernel thread" try a few out if you aren't sure and see which one works best for you. I just recommend 4aces because it worked for me
Carry on all

Go download team win recovery project 2.4.4 I believe it is. The status 7 error is a out of date recovery. You can flash it via Odin or through your current recovery
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
^ that
Flash kernel after ROM. Most ROMs come with a kernel in the zip, so it would overwrite any that you install. I got status 7 and decided to try a different ROM because I was too lazy to update recovery

Ok. I have a problem here. phone reboots when i touch turn on usb connection, any idea? want to flash chris kernel
That is very common for JB ROMs actually. Had that on my old phone as well... Trying to remember what I did Try a different kernel and see if that works any. I don't think it happens to me anymore but it did before.
I'm gonna spend some time searching and see what that yields. I know you can boot into recovery and enable USB transfer that way. It's supposed to be faster because it bypasses a few firmware components. But either way, that is a nuisance.
Okay, try going Settings->Storage->(Menu soft key)->USB options
From here you should be able to enable mass storage, or if that reboots on you like before, try ticking MTP. Maybe try checking developer options and see if USB debugging is enabled or not. Unfortunately I don't know which to have ticked and which ones not
Anyone? Cuz right now all of mine are unchecked (and that doesn't sound right)

You installed CWM for a different variant most likely. Make sure you have the one for i605 or just get it off their website.
