You can port stock Nougat ROM but you really need to have some experience developing/coding a ROM.
Or you can just search ROMs that have already been made by other developers for your device.(Go to "Search" and type your device model and then go to "Android development" / ROMs,kernels,etc or whatever it has)
Greetings.

Will Lenovo A390 Custom ROM work on A369

Hi,
I searched for A369 Custom roms but I couldn't find any but I found many custom roms for A390.
My question is 1. Can I use A390 Custom ROM for my A369 device ?
The difference between these two devices are Processors,GPU and Camera MP.

You should not flash a custom rom meant for another device.
You have to first port that rom in a compatible and stable state for your mobile.
If you don't have any developments, wait for it or just try to learn to make it one yourself.

I don't own your device.
There are lots and lots of guides and tutorials on xda and google.
Just search for it.

You Can't Simply Install ROMS on Just By Seeing The SOC Only.. .. There Are So Many Custom ROMs for MT6582 You should See The Kernel & Stock ROM of That Particular Device .. For Example Iam On MT6592 Running 4.4.x As Stock ROM With 3.4.67 Kernel & A Device With Same Kernel & Stock ROM But its MT6582 in That Case it Can Be Cross Ported & Used .. But When , The SOC is The Same(6592),Stock ROM is the Same(4.4.x) But the Kernel is 3.10.54 ..You can't Do That Even When the SOC(6592) is the Same as You Said ..it Can't be Done .. You need to see the Other Things Too(Kernel Especially) ..

sorry for asking too much question but I need to know so I won't have brick.
it says I don't need kernel while the other comment says I have to have the same kernel version.

I don't really know how much the version matters. For example, I have never gotten a ROM built for the 2.6 kernel to run on my device which uses a 3.1 kernel version even though they both use the same SoC. However, I have gotten ROMs for kernel version 3.4 to run pretty fine on mine which is kernel version 3.1. Some will work and some will not. If you are going to try porting your own ROMs then its important to not be afraid of getting bricked...that happens. Porting is mostly trial and error until it works.

ok if I understood correctly Soc=processor.
kernel is the 3.4.67 version.
but do I really need stock? I mean I want to change my android version to 6.0.1.
I don't really understand what stock means but of what I understood stock is the companies rom? I don't want another android 4.4.2 kitkat I want 6.0.1 marshmellow.
XD sorry for so many questions. but thank you a lot for helping me

Yes by Soc he means processor. Stock refers to the ROM your phone came with. If you want marshmallow, find another mt6582 device that is similar to yours which has M and try porting using the guide I pointed you to some posts back. The kernel you would use in this case is the kernel from your stockrom. You would of course need to modify it's ramdisk to try and get M to boot. As I mentioned before, it is trial and error and when doing this you must not be afraid of a brick.

thank you a lot LoverBoy2415 and L3RON, and yeah I am not afraid of brick. I have lg g3 and galaxy s3 and my doogee dg800 is an old smartphone and I want to learn those things.
you are really helpful and a nice people I clicked thanks on your comments and other's people comments who helped me, you said I need to modify it's ramdisk. how do I do that? is there any guide?

There are existing roms for your phone including CM12.1. See here. In you wanna diy then you'd need a tool to extract the ramdisk from the boot.img. I use Carliv Image Kitchen, it's available here on xda. You also need a tool like notepad++ to edit the files inside the ramdisk (init.rc and the rest). The idea is to compare the two and make changes to yours based on what's in the other (boot.img from the ROM you are porting) ramdisk. As I said, it's trial and error. If your device is really similar to another device as in they're basically identical twins then you can simply replace the boot.img with yours and modify build.prop to fit your device and you are good to go. But that's only if your devices are very very similar...like the Galaxy Tab 8.9 and the Galaxy Tab 10.1 they're basically the same device with some differences in their kernels hence you replace the boot.img in the ROM you are porting with one from your stock (modified accordingly of course).

of course nothings inpossible but when said developer made a custom rom without there beina an actual source it starts to seem less likely.. i am a developer to and ive never seen someone flash a rom over stock recovery unless it was an update and was installed using the update option on the recovery and on top of that im pretty sure the bootloader needs to be unlocked before install any rom/kernel. the version of vivo 5 is a pakistanian version with the same hardware and if the blu vivo 5 dont have it then neither will that variant at least thats what i think
