[Q] HP 7 VoiceTab

Hi there
I'm a newbie to the Android flashing and rooting thing. Anyway I own a HP 7 voice tab and I wanna install a CUSTOM ROM which is CM12(Lollipop)
My question is CAN WE FLASH ANY CUSTOM ROM TO ALL THE ANDROID POWERED TABS AND PHONES ?
Can I use the normal method to unlock my bootloader ? Do I need to root my Tab in order to flash a custom ROM ?
Your help would be deeply appreciated.
You can only flash ROMs made for your device. Don't try and flash custom ROMs made for other devices. The procedure for unlocking your bootloader also depends on the device, so I'd search around to see if anyone else has done it.

[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] Install pure Android on rooted phone?

Hi all,
Is it possible to install pure Android on a rooted phone? Or, can you only install a custome ROM? If you can only install a ROM, does that mean that someone has to create a new ROM when a new version of Android comes out? Thanks.

[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,
