[Q] Need 4.4 or else 4.3 for my s duos

I have s duos still it is not rooted and it is out of warranty so I was thinking to root and get 4.4 or 4.3.I have not done any customization on it. As 4.0.4 now about get outdate and offical update of 4.1 is not released I am bored of its ui is also boring so if you give any good ui that would be bonus. Please give the direct download links of rom, rooting app, bootloader, ui and what is necessary. I am at the starter level so try to explain detail as i know very less of all these and if possible do it as early as possible because I already wasted my 2-3 days in search about the rom I could not find any proper site. I would be grateteful to u if u will do just that work for me.

If you only need ui you can always install a "launcher" from Google Play.
If you want also to have the latest android and its functions then you will need a ROM.
The only rom found about your phone is HyperX
If you have rooted and installed cwm recovery then you will install the ROM.
Each rom has individual instructions.You can take a look at HyperX thread to see the procedure of how to install the rom.
I can't give you instructions through a post I'm sorry .Check out the HyperX Thread

Here is how to solve your problem:
Download your ROM from here:
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B2ORIgaV4iacSkd4VGtWdy1idVU&usp=sharing
Then respect the steps with the flashing.
After that reflash your SLX ROM.

Hi bauuuuu,
I recently installed this awesome ROM on my device over the stock ROM (S124).
But it so happened that the internal storage just vanished. I had more than 5 GB of internal storage but upon installation, all of that was gone.
When I flashed the Mystic OS ROM, the internal storage vanished.
Attached in the screenshot that says that there are only two types of storage available i.e.
- Phone Storage - 0.98 BG
- SD Card Storage - 30 BG. (My SD Card)
- MISSING??? ->>>> Internal Storage which used to be around 5 GB!!!!!
Please help!
Also, the Bluetooth address was missing after the flash along with the IMEI number. I managed to get the IMEI number back with by backup of the same. But can you tell me how can I get the Bluetooth Address back?
Thanks!

About the Bluetooth: I read that the Bluetooth address is not available until you switch on the Bluetooth. So, I did that and I could see the Bluetooth address, but then applications that I am using are not able to detect the Bluetooth device. Can you advise on that?
Is it the same problem as above?

Hmm.. my advice to you is to check the archive if the firmware, to see if its not corrupted.
After this check try to reflash.

Ok. Let consider the fact that your firmware is ok!
Tell me what is your hardware that you cant connect to the phone!
Hello folks. I've been quite a Custom ROM fan for a while. I really appreciate your work, love it. The last time, I installed Mystic OS V5. I liked it very much, nice visual effects and whatnot. But what I really minded was the battery performance, I checked it only lasted 9 m 21 s (45 % battery). Well Version7 wasout, and I was thinking to check it out. So... how about it? Any major bugs you've discovered lately? How is the battery?
(Firmware: Lenovo Stock ROM ROW I think I downloaded from a post by Stymphy)

Alpha Corso MP-5000 ROM

Can someone upload a firmware for Chinese smartphone Alpha Corso MP-5000?
Can someone help me please? I have soft bricked phone and i don't know how to recovery it without phone firmware.
I found out that it has BB Chip: MT6572. Is it possible to use some other ROM for that chip instead of factory default?
