Custom ROMs

Hallo!
I am ZTE Racer II user and i am looking for roms.
1 year of researching and no custom rom available on the net?!?
It was wierd,but that's it.
No roms.
So I need help with developing custom rom for this device,plz!!!
Thanks ahead!
You'll need to have some experience of linux and compiling from source, and knowledge on your phone's internal hardware. You might also need knowledge on the Android platform.
You'll also need to figure out how to get clockworkmod recovery on your phone
Good luck!
A little HELP?
Well ,I am not so good at that stuff ,but i want to have custom ROM.
That's why I ask for someone to make me a custom ROM.
Here is a link of the stock Rom I am using now.
www .4shared .com/zip/wNcQoJ9j/STOCK_ROM.html
I prefer MIUI custom ROM
And I installed this ROM via clockwork mod recovery and I'm using it right now.
Thank you ahead!
And I'm sorry the forum does not allow me to post the link because I'm new user!

[Q]Need Help With Tablet

Yesterday I bought denver tablet tac-90011,
I made a root successful,
Now I ask for help because I do not have experience with Tablet,
I know very well how it all works on Android phones.
I would like to install Custom Rom on Tablet,
So I'm interested in that process....in fact I do not know that ClockworkMod Recovery i must flash to make stock firmware backup....or whether it should even need recovery for flash custom rom
also do not know with what tools I flashed new custom rom..
is there anything like Samsung Odin ,
or the procedure is different
I would be very grateful for your help
SO:
- I have denver tac-90011
- rooted
- Android 4.1.1
-what next...need CWM Recovery???
Thank you very much?

Guys need help to return to stock firmware of 5.0 retailer version in moto E2 3G

Guys pls i need help to install 5.1 in my phone or return to my stock firmware. Only 1 week earlier i rooted my phone and update is release and i have installed twrp recovery how to return to my stock firmware to update my phone pls help or send me a link of stock firmware or instructions to install pls help...
Well let's see here, why did you root your phone in the first place and flash twrp?
I presume it was for a custom ROM. Unless you are selling your phone or giving it to service center, you have so many Marshmallow ROMs out here!!! Why would you want to return to stock!? Just why. You have Resurrection Remix for intense customization, the most trusted Cyanogenmod, You also have aosp caf if you really want a stock experience (Its just as stable as stock with no bugs). I just don't see why you should download 600mb worth data! You could have 2 custom ROMs and a kernel for that amount of data. IMO, don't........ Just don't

No name android phones and CM

Hey guys,
Got on hands noname Chinese android phone with lollipop on board (even though it says 6.0.1 in settings) and MTK6580 quad processor, 3.10.72 kernel
can I somehow put cyanogen rom from another phone?
Yes, find another phone using that chip: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_devices_using_Mediatek_SoCs
Then go here: http://www.needrom.com and find THAT phone(s) and see if there is a custom rom for THAT phone also using the same kernal 3.10/3.12 etc
Download that rom and port it yourself using the boot.img from YOUR phone using this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/guide-how-to-port-lollipop-based-roms-t3223938
And get it at least booting on your phone, out of loads I've done on MTK phones, 95% boot up first time, 50% of those have no issues, the other 50% have issues with cameras/wifi/video/phone that can be fixed literally with trial and error of swapping files from your stock rom to the new rom, can take hours/days of trial and error or could take minutes.
Have fun
EDIT: try to use a custom rom from a brand you have at least kinda heard of, doogee, walton, infinix...etc to make it more likely to work well.

Thank you for your response!
After few hours of research I have found many ROMs that are applicable for my phone. The thing is, I want it to be and look as close to stock android as possible, and as close to most recent version as well.
But still I have few questions:
1)Am I right by saying that kernel 3.10.72 is suitable only for android 5.x?
2)Is it possible to put android 6.x or 7.x?
3)If it is do I need to ugrade kernel?
4)Is it possible to upgrade kernel?
I really hope it's not too much to ask from you.

Your phone is basically the same as mine, and sadly the kernal has to be the same for every custom ROM, there are no kernel sources so no custom kernels, which means we are both stuck with lollipop
The infinix hot 2 for example, is the same MTK chip and was released with lollipop and kernel 3.10 but then infinix released a stock marshmallow upgrade, with a stock 3.12 kernel so they could get a custom 6.0 rom which im 99% sure we will never get.
If you go here: http://www.needrom.com/author/robneymcplum/ this is me on there, where I have ported the best 5.1.1 roms with our kernel. You will need to port to your phone, which is literally just swapping about 10 files from your stock rom so make a backup of your stock rom or find stock firmware, and get the files from there and use the guide i already posted.
Hope this helps. And if you have never done it, its way, WAY easier than you think it might be

There is a custom ROM for Blu Advance 4.0 A207a?

I can't find a custom ROM made for that specific device probably because it wasn't that popular. It its a mediate device (mt6572 iirc) so I can install a suitable version of cynogenmod/lineageos/other kind? If so which version I should use? I only know how to install the stock ROM with flash tools.
Thanks and I hope a positive answer
