Recently my Dad bought a phone from Aliexpress that had device specifications that sounded great for what the price of the phone was. It seemed too good to be true however we decided to get it and see what it's like. Looking at the phone the specs are what the product page said it would be however the custom Android ROM installed on the device sucks. I really want to change it however I understand if this is not possible due to it being a knock-off phone that probably has highly specific hardware components.
I've managed to enable OEM Unlocking, and USB debugging.
I'm very new to Android custom ROM installing so I thought I'd ask if anyone can point me in a direction to achieve putting a custom ROM on the phone.
Phone Information:
Android Version: 12.0
Android Security Patch Level: April 1, 2022
Baseband Version: MOLY.WRB.W1449.MD.WG.MP.V111.4.P2, 2019/08/14 13:46
Kernel Version: 3.18.35 [email protected] #2 Tue May 24 21:44:38 CST 2022
Build Number: MRA58K Test-Keys
Custom Build Version: alps-mp-m0.mp23-V1.32.3_magc.cweg.m_P9
Model Number: S22 Ultra
CPU: Qualcomm 888+ Deca Core
RAM: 8GB
ROM: 256GB
Current Software Update: M1649839401286V198E_P1E3_S22_ULTRA_20220524-2120
I'll appreciate any advice. Thankyou!

I bought the same phone on aliexpress. This is garbage, fake. The seller is a fraud. Firmware cannot be installed on such a phone. Watch the video
Hi i have also purchased this same device fake china Samsung s22+ ultra, i checked the device with benchmark and it was showing as Alps, then also discovered that it is an MTK 6580 DEVICE. I thought of an idea to flash the device with the original Samsung rom but somehow i have bricked it and won't turn on anymore and i cant find the right rom for it as the name of the device is not showing up with a rom when I do a search online. although it does show up with a scatter file. can anyone help with this?

Hi, all.
This is my first post (I had another account, but I don't remember the details...) and I wish to thank all people working to satisfy the curiosity of stupid newbies like me...
I would like to ask your opinion in order to choose a suitable ROM to speed my S3, which is unlocked by factory.
So, I will give the details:
GT-I9300
Android 4.1.2
Baseband I9300DXEMB1
Kernel 3.0.31-1287119
[email protected]#1
SMP PREEMPT Fri Jun 28 00:40:06 KST
2013
Build JZO54K.I9300XXEMF6
My goal is to eliminate unnecessary apps, like weather and other such. I use it mainly for calling, pics, vids, and internet/social networks.
Can anyone advise or help?
Thanks a lot.
Regards
Welcome (back) to xda.
Maybe read the rules first as threads like yours are not allowed. Hence report it before you will get flamed upon

I currently using temasek rom, and I'm planning to flash JustArchi rom JustArchi's rom thread has a very detail guide to help a newbie flash rom so I recommend you use JusrArchi's rom.
google 2 rom and flash the one you like
If you want to give ArchiDroid a shot here is the link, with a quite good guide written by me - last tab in second post.
However a rom is a matter of taste.

Hello,
I am well aware that you have a huge database full of threads and posts. I have been searching for over a week now to learn how to do a variety of things on my new smartphone. Unfortunately I've been unable to find what I've been looking for, anywhere. I've found vague details in a merge of threads - and frankly it's just scaring me more than anything. I feel like the best way of achieving a safe, good outcome, is by supplying you with specifics and requesting that someone helps me. It would mean a lot to me.
Phone specs
Model number: GT-19100P
Android version: 2.3.4
Baseband version: I9100PBVKI2
Kernel version: [email protected] #2
Build number: GINGERBREAD.BVKI3
What I'm trying to achieve
Root my phone
Update the version of android on the phone to v4.1.2 (new user, so I can't put links, but go to: Samsung Updates -> Select device -> GT-19100P (Galaxy S 2) -> Look at the updates listed there).
I'm not sure I should list all of the things I've attempted to do, so I won't - but what I'm basically asking is: can someone please give me really simple steps and links as to how I can do this? Thank you so much.
Hey All!
Sorry if this isn't the place to be asking this, but not sure where else to go for technical questions.
I've got a Sony Dash (model HIDC10) that I got as a gift years ago. It's been sitting on my bedside table and running through apps, but I figured it can probably be hacked for better use. So why not android?
Here's what I know:
I have root access to the device
It's running some strange flavor of linux, but seems to have a fairly normal filesystem.
It's SOC is a Sigma Designs SMP8652
Sigma seems to have some type of android kernel available[2] for this chipset, but not openly available.
uname -a returns Linux tango3 2.6.22.19-28-sigma #801 PREEMPT Mon Feb 13 03:37:26 PST 2012 mips unknown
Here's what I don't know:
If the frame buffer is compatible/has been ported
How I would go about getting android on this thing
How to get it out of a read-only filesystem
Any help would be appreciated. Please let me know if you have any suggestions or questions!
Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone,
I recently acquired a DL 1004 tablet and I am looking for a custom ROM or an alternative operating system to enhance its functionality. The DL 1004 tablet runs on Android 4.0.3 (Ice Cream Sandwich) with a kernel version of 3.0.8. Unfortunately, it is no longer receiving official support, which is why I am reaching out to the XDA Developers community for assistance.
I have conducted some research but have been unable to find any available custom ROMs or alternative operating systems specifically designed for the DL 1004 tablet. I would greatly appreciate any guidance or recommendations from the community.
Here are some additional details:
Model: DL 1004
Android version: Android 4.0.3 (Ice Cream Sandwich)
Kernel version: 3.0.8
I am particularly interested in finding ROMs that offer features such as Wi-Fi recovery or any other customizations that can improve the tablet's overall performance and usability. If any community members have successfully installed a custom ROM or an alternative operating system on the DL 1004 tablet, I would greatly appreciate your insights and recommendations.
If there are any dedicated forums or communities focused on DL tablets or Android devices in general, please let me know. I am open to exploring different platforms to find the best solution for my DL 1004 tablet.
Thank you in advance for your help and expertise. I am excited to learn from your experiences and recommendations!
Best regards,
