[Q] General question about International ROM flashing - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

as title says, i want to know can I flash russian/international rom on my indian phone with indian firmware? will it work fine? if no, then is it possible to port them? if someone know how to port then please give some guidelines for mtk device.

Solved
too bad i couldn't even get answer of a general question from community. anyway, i tested international (i.e. Russian version) rom on my phone. its working perfectly fine, all you have to do is just change the language at the first boot page. attached a picture as proof. so folks, international roms can be used, enjoy! :good:

[Q] can I use samsung galaxy s middle east rom on my vibrant

Hello guys,
first of all, I have done my homework and searched the forum and google for an answer, but could not find anything with a definite answer.
here is what I found on this forum: (sorry, still can't post links)
/showthread.php?t=791189
/showthread.php?t=802631
My question is: is it possible to install the Samsung Galaxy S Middle East ROM on my Vibrant?
If, the answer is yes, then what are the consequences?
I mean well everything will work smoothly and without problems? or will I face some problems?
Best Regards,
Won't work.
Will probably soft brick you and you'd need odin to restore. Galaxy S Variants do not work well with other ROMs.
The Middle East ROM likely contains a different baseband firmware as well.

Thanks for replaying.
Have you tried it?
If so, what are the symptoms of doing so?
If not, how do you know?
and what makes you sure about that? is there an article that you can refer me to which have more details on this matter?
And if there is no way I can do that, does anybody knows about a ROM that have Arabic support and still able to work on the Vibrant?
The only ROM that I know about which has an Arabic support is the cyanogen and AFAIK I can't use it on the Vibrant.
If it's not vibrant specific you'll have issues.

> You will get to know everything. Start off on the link at my last answer.
> For arabic language support, you need to install a custom ROM which either has multiple languages, or the Arabic language. Don't worry if it is confusing, read the link on the last line
> No, that is not possible, but you always have ICS ROMs for all types of models of the Galaxy SII !
> The kernel that was released officially didn't support arabic, but here at XDA, you can always find the "CUSTOM ROMs" that are tweaked and have multiple languages!
> Yes, ofcourse. Link at the last line
> Yes, customized ROMs allow you to download stuff from the Play Store officially ( Android Market )
> To start off the best topic is THIS and then after reading it, go to your corresponding SGS2's thread which is HERE
I learnt every single thing from this thread and you will too. It explains every single thing about rooting, putting custom ROMs, flashing kernels, etc.
Please, do press the "THANKS" button below my post. It really does help.
Cheers!

Hello everyone,
i'm new here, but i've being looking for a custom rom for my father old huwei 858. all that i can find is outdated. is there any custom rom availeble and with a guide of how it can be installed?
thanks.
Using the rom manager app i manage to find a rom that works like a charm. but i still have a problem: is it possible to install a language into an already installed rom? the one that i manage to install only have english spanish and german, i would like the phone to be in portuguese, is there any way i can do it without having to find another rom?
ok its solved now, end up installing the lastest cyanogen mod and everything works fine, including a huge number of languages
Hi,
I will ask that your question be moved to the Android General Q&A section, and hopefully you can find help. I can only see the roms that you've probably already seen. As far as instructions go, they are usually in the first post or 2 of the rom thread.
Good luck!

Customrom

Hello. I recently got an m8 so i was wondering if there were any custom roms that keep the gesture when the phone is locked but also gives vanilla android experience. Also can you list a couple of good roms to use. Thanks
Witch variant HTC ONE M8 ?
We can assume it's the At&t variant cause your asking in the At&t
Q&A ,Help & Troubleshooting forum.
Normally I would offer assistance but you don't have a problem to solve cause your answer lies within the Development section
Enter a Rom thread and if what you read is what you think you might like than give it a try.
Please do yourself a favour and make a backup before you do anything ?

Galaxy S3 I9300- Tutorial Ror Stable ROM or List All Links In One Place

Hello guys,
I apologize in advance if this is someone already asked, but if not I would like to ask if someone could put something like a tutorial, or all links in one place, to set up a new good and stable ROM on S3 I9300. I think it would be good to set an explanation from the very beginning, such as: how to install the ROM (good and stable), how to install Karnel (good and stable), if it is required for this ROM, and explanation and tools to restore the original ROM if something is not good after installing custom ROMs. Once again, I apologize if I was wrong with asking, I'm relatively new to this forum and this could because I wanted to install a new ROM but I'm not 100% sure how to do it and which ROM to choose. I found and read a lot of information, but now I am after all this information even more confused, and I would like to do it properly.
Thank you
Am using blekota note 4 latest build on my i9300
