[Q]Cyanogenmod/CWM for the Blu Studio 5.0 II - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I made a xda account for this, but I want to put Cyanogenmod on my Blu studio 5.0 II D532u and put CWM or TWRP. I'm a intermediate in the tech area by just starting to learn python as my first programming language. The main problem is that because the Blu phone lines in general aren't truly mainstream or well known like Samsung and HTC. Fully unlocking the capabilities of my phone is a huge problem. And since I'm stuck at jelly bean and will not be getting Kitkat or Lollipop soon, my customization options are low. So I was hoping to come here to this forum to see if someone would be able to help me port Cyanogenmod and CWM to my phone. I don't mind if it takes a while, but I want to do more with my phone and lack the knowledge needed to do this on my own.
please assist me,
SG

looking for custom recovery and rom too
Did you happen to find them? It seems difficult to find anything custom for the D532u

[Q] Tmobile Samsung GS2 (JB OTA hits what should i do before update?)

Hiya all
I'm new to these forums but ive lurked for a bit off and on.
However I felt it was time to join up as I am getting more and more involved with android development.
Here is the current scenario: I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 (SGH-T989) Currently running the stock firmware (ICS).
I am also rooted and fully enjoy the device and it's flawless operation. But I want to move on to Jellybean as I have heard quite a bit of positive feedback from many users of the newest flavor of android. As such this brings me to my first question rooting after the update.
As I understand it when I update with the OTA JB (that's constantly prompting me) I will be back to a out of box device, No apps, no tweaks, and even worse no root? (if my understanding is faulty or not on point please correct me)
Secondly Has anybody rooted the stock JB with this model of the SSGS2? if so please be as so kind as to direct me to relevant documentation or guides.
That being said Thank you all for your time and I look forward to geeking out on android with all of you from here on out.

Cheers!

[Q] Dualboot

Hello,
I own a Samsung Galaxy Trend Plus and I have a CWM recovery. I recently installed CM11 and there's a huge bug: can't make phone calls. And the development was terminated because of the lack of Broadcom's drivers. :crying: So I was already planning on reinstalling the stock rom, then I did some research online and I found a solution: dual boot! I could have stock rom and CM installed at the same time.
I went searching online and I only found guides/apps/videos for specific devices or for Android and Ubuntu, but I want two android roms. Since my phone isn't very popular, I found out there's no guide for it. :crying:
My question is: is there a way to dual-boot/multi-boot/dual-rom/multi-rom for this device/all android phone in general?
Best regards,

ROM for Samsung Galaxy SIII SM-G3812B

Hello, recently acquired this device, as it has the 4.2 version of android, decided to look for some more current ROM unfortunately not found, I saw that the other models of the Galaxy SIII have Custom ROM, then come here to ask developers to please, to create a Custom ROM, be it 4.4 or 5.0, many users need this help.
Anything yet
C'mon, I have this phone and I can't find any custom rom for it...:crying::crying::crying:
If you have the time, compile the ROM yourself, it is a time consuming process, but you achieve maximum peacefullness with your device. Look on YouTube or google how to do it.

developing custom rom for G700, all xda veterans please help me!!

Actually I have many question
I think when a newbie like me start to work on rom development then there are several questions arises in mind basically like what I am going to ask here, my purpose is to get all this doubts cleared before starting so that I can start to focus on things. I don't know if my questions will help other newbies like me but it will literally help me a lot .
I am trying to develop a custom rom for ascend g700 as i have seen it among the most hated device among developers , no one want to do anything for this phone and it can accomodate a lot of upgradation. I have seen g700 users begging inside CM forum to build a latest ROM for this device, I have also seen g700 owners begging on huawei website to upgrade their devices but huawei doesn't even feel like to give a word to it. and I feel really bad about this .
So i just want to build a good looking, working, clean, latest by look and feature rom for Ascend g700 for all users, there are various reasons why I want to do that:
1) One of the biggest reason why I am here is I want to see g700 users smiling with joy that finally somebody has updated their device, I want all g700 owners to feel worth buying the device.
2) No working custom rom is available for this device yet.
3) No Cyanogenmod rom available.
4) This device configuration seems potentially great which literally needs update (atleast up to kitkat).
5) And personally I don't like UI emotion of this phone besides that google play store has some bug which makes icons background looks black which is a sore to eyes, Huawei did nothing for this device yet except just earned the bucks from it. I hate the companies who are ignorant about their customers.
I don't want to bore anyone reading my thread but i have lots of questions to resolve before i start to develop something for this device and I hope i will succeed.
Okay so let's get started with my questions, all veterans are requested to kindly share their vast knowledge and help me understanding the facts. thanks in advance .
Objective: what i am trying to do is, trying to find out the latest possible (Lollipop) rom which I can use as base rom to flash this device (Ascend G700) or just build a custom one fully working.
1 First: Are there any neutral latest android rom versions are available from google official websites to start using on any device or to start develop it for any particular device?
If "yes" then from where i can get it?
If "No" then from where the companies get their android roms on first hand as a clean plain base android rom to make it their own rom?
2 second: Can i just install any rom of any phone and it will start to work?
If "No" then what maybe the problems that I would first encounter?, what can I do to fix that any such known problems?
3 Third: I have heard about porting rom by changing things inside rom like replacing kernel of base rom with my stock rom, Kernel of my stock rom (4.2.1) can work with lollipop rom (5.0.0)? if yes then which lollipop rom would be best to use for (G700) and from where I can get one?
4 Fourth: Can I use my old kernel, camera and radio from stock rom in newer lollipop rom will it work? is it possible to do that?
5 Fifth: Can I use any kernel on any phone? or there are any specific particular to device types? or is it necessary to use the old kernel?
6 Sixth: If I flash my phone with custom new rom the radio will also be flashed with it automatically? even if I doesn't want to? How would I know that the rom i am going to use contains the flash files for radio also? and can i remove that? and use rest of the rom?
7 Seventh: If i flash my phone with new custom rom what are chances that it's camera will not work? or radio maybe affected?
8 Eighth: What can i do to port my camera from stock rom to new custom rom which I want to flash. the camera of old rom (4.2.1) can work with lollipop (5.0.0)?
9 Nineth: The device is a dual sim, any special thing to keep in mind before flashing a rom? a rom should necessarily be valid for dual sim? are there any specific types?
Please all the veterans from XDA are requested to provide inside to all these questions of mine, so that I can start working on my custom rom, I seriously want to upgrade this phone please help
Any help from anyone who knows anything related to any question of mine are welcome to share their knowledge.
Thanks in advance .

Cubot x17 custom ROMs

Morning all.
I use to be apart of this community quite a bit and helped out with REVOLT ROM.
Then I decided to go over to the dark and get an iPhone 5. Now I'm back on android using a Cubot x17.
So here's the thing. Marshmallow is as you all know is the latest os for android and Cubot are failing to give me a straight answer as to when they plan on releasing it across their phones as their more recent onea come preloaded.
And because I am having no joy what so ever with them I am after rooting and flashing my phone. Only problem is I am unable to find any custom ROMs for my phone. Now I am aware that rooting it might be a nasty job as it runs a different chip to your average phone, so any help at all would be appreciated!
