You have to flash custom recovery first. Custom rom can only flash through custom recovery. You can find custom rom for your android here on XDA or on needrom.

I just got one of these for my daughter and I was straight on here looking for a custom rom for her, but the phone isn't even listed yet. It's still too new. I'm sure in a while there will be roms for it, and the phone is equivalent in power to an S4 I think so could run lollipop I'm guessing.
Some HELP ?
Please can someone help to install a custom rom on my A5 i have rooted it but i can't find a custom recovery for it and also can't install a custom rom....

How did you root your A5 bro ? I want to root my A5 but i'm affraid
I want to install a custom rom on my A5 also, i hate touchwiz launcher.
i followed this tutorial and it worked but can't do anything more since there's no custom recovery or roms for the A5 i have one but it's just an improved version of the 4.4.4

What tutorial did you follow ? Yes, without a custom rom we can't do anything.... Let's wait for a while.
Samsung will launch Lollipop soon, but i don't want this with touchwiz launcher.
Thanks for lacking of ROMs. Now I use the phone with stock ROM without even root, and I'm happy. Weird!! )
me tooi have A5 i tried many tutorials to root but only one works is the KINGROOT softwar for pc now its rooted but i cant find any recovery or custom rom hhh
My s4 died and since I'm a poor bastard I ended with an a5 (s5 and s6 still way too expensive)
Phone is not as powerful as an s4... Mine ran cyanogenmod with f2fs and there is no comparison.
A5 is OK... Samsung did shaved some bloatware and the phone is quick enough to not be annoying.
I enjoy using it but sometimes the ok screen get on my nerves (s4 had over 400 ppi... This one us like 290)

[Q] (Q) Official ROM for IM-A870L?

I'm the south Korean Android user who has IM-A870L(VEGA iron). I also wan to experience Lollipop(Android 5.0), and i think the only way to use lollipop is using custom rom like Cm12, Miui6. I found a custom rom in Tekcafe, and i realized it's unofficial custom rom, is it possible to do OTA even if it isn't official? I am hoping that i can use OTA instead of factory reset to install new custom rom.
Please be interested in developing IM-A870L rom.

[Q]Need idea/suggestion in flashing Custom Rom for Cloudfone Thrill Plus

Hello guys,
Need help for a custom rom compatible with my device. It runs on MediaTek's MT6580, i already flash TWRP v3.0.2 but have not rooted it yet since I need to flash a custom rom, my reason is to remove bloatware and solve my flickering screen. I understand that i by running on custom rom, I would be able to stop my screens from flickering. I would like to install CM13.1 or Lineage OS but I want to ask some experts here first if there's much better ROM that I can use from your recommendations.
Thanks,
Another inquiry regarding porting custom rom, I found some roms dedicated for MT MK6850 devices i flashed it directly to my phone (stock rom) but I get an error 7, my question is do I need to port it to my device? If so, I understand that you need a custom rom compatible for my device as Base and the custom rom I want as port, how to do it if i am from a stock rom?
Thanks,
