Oppo Rx17 Neo Development - A waste of time? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, i'm the owner of an Oppo Rx17 neo, and the phone is really nice: Fingerprint sensor under screen, 128gb ROM, 4gb RAM... Overall a good phone, but the only problem is Color OS. I buyed this phone because i didn't knew about Color OS (My bad). Now i'm stuck with this phone for at least two or three years, there's no other choice but keep it. Knowing this, i want to develop a custom ROM for this phone, even if i have to learn from scratch, because i don't know anything about Android Development. I'm a web developer (PHP, JavaScript, a little bit of python and C#), but i don't know where to start this journey, because for what someone told me on a Telegram group, i need a custom recovery (Like TWRP i guess?), but i couldn't find anything about it on google (I searched for it on english, i don't know anything about russian or chinesse, i guess that could've help me a lot).
So, getting to the point: Could you help me to understand how to compile TWRP for my phone, or in first place, how to know if i can even unlock the bootloader. I have installed custom ROMS before, on an Galaxy S5 and a nexus 5x, but nothing further.
Can i have some help?

Anyone? Still looking for recommendations on where to start with this.

[Q] Alcatel One Touch X'Pop 5035D

Good day all,
Last week my phone died, so i was forced to buy a new one. I wanted to get a cheap phone with a dual core processor. With that in mind i bought myself the Alcatel One Touch X'Pop 5035D. Now don't get my wrong, i am fairly happy with the phone but i was used to phone that were rooted and had some community behind it to make that happen. Now i realise this is a fairly new phone that is a mid-end smartphone but i really hope someone could look in to this phone.
The only thread that i found about this phone was pretty much dead and i was hoping a new topic would put some new light on this phone.
I myself ain't someone that can develop anything for this phone since i just don't have the required skills to start a project like this. Now the only thing i can do is ask the following questions:
1) Is anyone able to Root this device?
2) Would it be a possibility for someone to make a ROM for this phone?
I would be able to test any upcoming ROM's or Roots, so thats no issue.
I really hope to get some responses since this phone has the hardware to run jellybean.
Oh and Alcatel released the sources on their phones on sourceforge, that might be helpfull:

Thanks in advance!

Hi, we are talking about a rom for this phone. Check the topic about rooting & recovery. If you need help or want to know more, PM me

Alcatel One Touch Pop Icon (Straight Talk ) root, or where to start to build a root

Hello XDA, I have recently bought a Alcatel One Touch Pop Icon on Straight Talk. Ive been searching the internet for a root, custom recovery, and ROMs but have had zero luck finding anything remotely close to this phone. None of those "all in one" root solutions work either. If anyone has any idea on how to get started with building a root for this phone or knows anyone that has, it would be great to hear from you. I figured someone out there would know something about this Alcatel phone but its not the model i'm working with. The only issue i see right now is that the recovery is locked down hard. The only choices you get are factory reset or wiping the partition and rebooting. No installs from adb or sdcard. So i'm assuming its a "locked recovery". That's about all i have to say if anyone wants to know more about this phone feel free to ask and il be glad to help and hopefully get somewhere with this!

Hi
Tusks for writing to us at XDA Assist. Please standby while we have your thread/question moved to the appropriate place. Because there's no dedicated section for your device on XDA, and because this is also a fairly general question, we'll be moving it to the general Android q&a section here:

Good luck!

Thanks for starting this thread. This is a pretty decent phone and I've got Samsung Galaxy Note 3's, S4's and others to compare with. Considering how cheap tracfone is to use I think a lot more people will be shifting to these. With a Quad Core I think it's comparable to at least a Galaxy S3 if not a S4 in many aspects (camera is not as good as S4). Just got one of these myself after thinking a couple days ago that maybe Tracfone had finally added some Android phones with a little more 'Horsepower' than their previous couple. And there it was -- a Quad Core! I've tried a few things so far but no luck with root. Hoping some of the Master Guru's will take a look at this one.

Sorry for a late reply, ive been busy with schooling lately
I'm glad there is some type of base of users for this phone. i agree and hope some of the "masters" will start looking into this phone!
Launcher Layout
So, when i first got this phone, the stock SIMPLE launcher had to go. I tested for about 3 weeks and came across dodol launcher. So far its low ram and buttery smooth on this phone.
Here are some screenshots from how i have it set on my device.
Hopefully this will lead some people in to see how this phone handles and how it looks. Cheers!
Hi I've just bought this phone and am wanting to root it. Have tried all the rooting apk's on the net. Still no root. Does anyone else have this phone and would like to have it rooted? Or if there is a method could you please share. Thanks

Have Alcatel A846L
I have read the following post:
[TUTORIAL][GUIDE][HOW TO] Root Alcatel One Touch Pop S3 5050. This thread seemed closer to my type of phone.
I have rooted several phones previously however they were either one click or not much "programming". I really want root. I am concerned about the "testing procedure" to see if it worked. Can someone confirm that "testing procedure" to see if the root worked is correct?
I don't mean to insult anyone. I'm don't want to brick my phone, a second opinion is always helpful. Thank you so much for your help from a newbie on Alcatel Pop Icon A846L
I would like to root this phone as well. Unfortunately, I have yet to discover a method that works. Are there any updates as to the status of rooting the phone? Surely it isn't impossible.
anyone root this yet?
Still nothing?? Bummer

well then reboot not root
See ms there are a couple similar roots for the Alcatel line. Sadly my S3 is getting old & slow. This seems like a minimal replacement with a Quad Qualcomm cores, no Mtk (knockoff) junk. The bootloader directions are exactly the same too.

Hey guys, I've had temporary root access successfully many times on this device using kingroot and another quick root method that I've forgotten at this point, the problem is that I haven't found a proper method to unlock the bootloader on this device so the device does not hold root upon reboot
Try downloading kingoroot from kingoapp.com,i hope it works for you coz it works for me
Try using Kingo Root. I just tried it and it worked on the A846L
Re Alcatel pop star
Hello everyone. I have this phone for a while now and I can say it's a great phone. I have root with Kongo root and have installed one or two apps to go with the root. However, I'm not seeing anything about upgrading this phone via ROMs an so on. Any luck from anybody out there, cos it will be a great help

What version do you have? I have a 5022E, Really nothing all around the web just for 5022D a recovery and a custom rom based on zenfone go. I make a custom recovery ported and a rom ported too based on RR (wash completely interface with CM theme engine and other tweaks) and maybe more in the way, I didn`t upload cause don´t see many users of this specific model. Watch differences between 5022E (mt6580, 1GB ram, 8GB storage) and your model and tell me, maybe can help you

Thanks a lot I appreciate your response.
You are correct when you said there really nothing around the web just for 5022D.
I don't really see much difference between the 5022D and 5022E. I think your ported rom will work on mine too.
Or what do you think?
I'll give it a go. As I have downloaded the official firmware for my 5022D. Guidance is all I can say I need now.
Thanks again

If you have to ask, wait for stock Lollipop.
Still interested ? Spend some time reading to see what you are getting into.
Custom ROMs require compromises/.
CM12 runs very stable on my Z2 Castor Windy.
I'm wondering the same thing and more, myself. I do hope somebody with more knowledge than I will chime in and advise. This z2 I have really is an impressive device. Do you know what frequency and type the 3gigs of ram are? It doesn't seem to be DDR 3 since it only seems to be able to do one or two things at the same time. For example, if cutting and pasting a file from one folder to another, then pasting another file from the pc orchestrating everything, if you try anything else, you get some "busy toast" message. Maybe I don't understand all I think I know about it.

I've read quite a bit and I'm not sure why it is a hard question for an expert to answer if to root a stock spg512 with the latest "unrootable" build before or after it gets OTA to Lollipop. One of the things that may escape you is that the various threads on these devices are often unclear if they are discussing the phone or the tablet, both named Z2, and most of them discussing the tablet speak directly to spg511.
I suppose I should simply do whatever needs done to put some form of L on it and do from there. I'm not worried about warranty and such. Otherwise, your answer was not very helpful and I can only assume you were bored when you typed it.

What I understood is that you want a stable ROM, no? I don't have this device but, if you're a newbie, please use the stock ROM which is most stable. There are a lot of new brands which doesn't have developers' support. Just make sure to always flash the right ROM for your device and you won't get any broken features. Shortly, wipe data and flash stock ROM.
P.S. From my experience: never try to flash a ROM that is made for another device.
thank you

Hi, I bricked my A33 Quad Core tablet. I was able to root the tablet by kingo Root app, and then on one Russian site I found twrp for A33 and I tried to flash it with the flashify and my tablet got bricked. Since then I was not able to back on the firmware which came in with the tablet.
I used phoenix suit to flash a rom. I am using a rom which is about as good as original was the only problem is that it does not rotate, Just in one form.
I am looking for the right firmware, if anyone can help or if I can fix this issue by installing some application.
I have attached the picture of my original recovery and the picture of my board.
I accidently found out, if you hold your volume up button and then also press the power button for 10 sec and then leave vol+up and power button simultaneously, your tablet will boot in recovery mode. Works for me.

Alcatel Ideal (4060a) Custom ROM install?

Hey guys. Im trying to install a custom ROM for Android. I have an Alcatel Ideal, and I want to install something like Marshmallow or Nougat. At the moment I'm on Lollipop. How can I do that? Also, another question. What is TWRP and what does it do?
Thanks,
Kingstevenrules.
Well it shows you didn't do much research. You can't just flash any Android device. You have have to find out if the bootloader is unlocked. Very few devices can be flashed and updated like that and most of the low tier devices can't be at all.
In my case, "All you have to do is unlock developer options on Alcatel Idea", not working. I am unable to unlock OEM, but that not a problem, since I got root, I am good.
Look guys, just because the guy is unfamiliar with how the forums work does Not give you the right to call him an "idiot"! Chill out and point the guy in the right direction. It takes the same amount of your time either way
@Kingstevenrules Marshmallow or Nougat is not available for this cheap phone. TWRP is recovery tool, it help when your phone becomes upset.
