If you can obtain the appropriate Stock ROM offered by OEM/Carrier then it should be possible: you flash this Stock ROM by means of tablet's Stock Recovery.

im no expert, so dont quote me on this, but from my understanding, and what apple was doing and just about everyother device ive had that had software updates (ps3,psp) when u do the stock rom update it will install over the rom and you will lose your custom rom.
If you switch from the stock rom to a custom rom, you will NOT receive official firmware updates anymore... so as long as you don't go and download a stock rom and install it manually, your phone will continue to run the custom rom until you update / change it...

Most likely a dev will go ahead and release a flashable version of any updates so you can still effectively get updates despite not being stock.
I can't seem to find a straight answer on how to get CWM on my player. I sort of retired my SGP 4.0 USA version from main use and want to use it for testing roms and stuff. I see all kinds of things on how to root however I installed a pre rooted stock rom on my player however I go into recovery and it says android system recovery. Is this like CWM or will I need to get cwm somewhere else. If someone could please clear all this up for my I would be very greatful
Recovery is not separate in this device, it is part of the main ROM. So your recovery will change based on whatever ROM you are running. This is typical of most Samsung devices.

So how would I install a custom rom on this device coming from a stock rooted rom? Like if I wanted to try CM 10 or 11?
All tutorials I have come across assume already having CWM

Odin/heimdall will install the boot image with recovery embedded. I don't really have more details as it's been ages since mine saw stock. Perhaps you can read up on it or someone else can help.

No just use Odin for the kernel, which includes the recovery. Then boot into recovery and do the install. Note that the cm11 kernel surely won't boot stock so you must go straight into recovery.

It needs a Custom Recovery & a Custom ROM(JB or Above) To Upgrade, Search In XDA or Google it, Does Your device Has These Two Means You Can Upgrade..

There is no custom recovery or a custom ROM available that I know of. The device is Vizio Co-star.
If you don't have these 2 things, does it mean you can't upgrade?
Are they are patches or can something be done if the device is rooted?
Thanks

No There Are No Other Ways, if Your Device Supports Official Updates Means You don't Need These Two..if Your Device Doesn't Support Official Updates Means You need Custom Recovery & a ROM to Upgrade From One Version to Another , & Root Helps In Flashing a Recovery, If Your Device Doesn't Have A Custom Recovery Means Root Can't Do Anything With That.. Root is Just a Assistance for Flashing a Custom Recovery ..
CM ROMs Even Have In-build Root With ROMs, So Root is Not A Big Issue Here ...
hi guys i install twrp recovery on my phone but when i want to install any rom show this (updater process ended with ERROR: 7 )
and i fix this problem by delete assert line in META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script
and when i install any rom right now doesn't boot please help?:crying:
Why do you people have a need to remove assert lines? These are there to protect you from making mess like this.
Your device is probably on lollipop. ROMs require Marshmallow base firmware without VoLTE support. Revert back to stock, upgrade it to Marshmallow and try again. This is discused so many times it's getting pointless.

Don't forget to update to marshmallow first if you want custom ROMs
You could use Honor Multi Tools (Along with Huawei Update Extractor) after downloading the Marshmallow firmware or simply use the "dload" method.
So I just bought an Xperia XA1 Ultra, and I want to ROM it (or I think I want to ROM it) to stock Android, but I have zero idea what that entails. Is there a start-up guide for these kind of things? Are there any risks involved and if so, how can I mitigate them? Would the camera be "dumbed down" by installing a different ROM?
I'm not even sure if this is the right place to ask this, but any help would be appreciated.

You mean you want stock rom of your Android or you want to flash custom rom or other device rom in your android. If you flash other device rom in your device then it bricked your android. Want more clarification what you want.
