There is a very low chance that the ROM for some other phone will work for your device even if the specs are same. Since, the same specs don't mean that flash block size, boot partition size etc are same for both phones.
You will have to compile one yourself.

Do we have someone can use Erachter ROM on ACRO S normally?

I tried a lot of times and a lot of ways to install this ROM on my ACRO S device, however, I always get Gapps stop working error, no statusbar, black screen backgroud and Google Services Framework has stopped error. This ROM totally cannot be used! Although I tested SD card can be used on this ROM. Do we have someone can use this ROM normally?

You have the same issue just like me? I remember you posted a tread which said you can use this ROM V1 normally right?

Now I am suspect even no one can use this ROM normally. Hope the ROM maker help resolve this issue.

Same specs

Did you guys notice that the LG L7II and the Huawei Y300 has the same specs
Wow, amazing! On my way to try out some huawei roms in hope of getting it to work.
It IS the same chipset afterall...
Nice find. Did you manage to find any ROMs? All I found were 4.1.x ROMs, which basically returns us to square 1...
Awesome, but this is not even nearly any close to development. Put this thread ro general.
Also installing a huawei rom just like this is a nice way to brick your phone...

Che, tried once to port, but instead of working phone, I got a bricked one.
They are pretty different inside, because all the circuitry is different, only the chipset is the same.
sorry
Sorry guys, i thought it would be helpful for development :|

Hah, I tried to flash it but CWM didn't let me. It just throws bunch of text at you and aborts the installation.
Tried to port with the classic port rom base rom method but with no success.

hello guys still do not get anything, I'm also looking for roms or some development for this phone would like a roms cleaner something more to the pure android I have if you want can leave contact to join the owners of this phone to see if we can get some development and we help each other say? :good:
This is a low end, low interest phone (and an oldish one too) so I think the search for a custom ROM is vane.
ROM are developed by people owning that phone. No dev owns one of this, so ther'll be no ROM.
I think the best we can do now is to debloat it in order to lighten the OS and make it work more efficiently.
I will go this path.

EDIT: Looking back at the answers
There is NOT any custom ROMS for that particular device so please don't waste your time on looking for one and only debloat it
right now there is a TWRP for this device to use so that's that
thank you. yeah, i received the file by conctanting him on twitter because it was not here before )

New Mi 8 lite - help cleaning up miui 10.2 and Android 8.1 oreo

Hello everyone,
I'm completely new here but friends referred me here and told me people will help here and give good advice. I just got a new Mi 8 lite phone and there is a ton of bloatware. I'd like to clean it up as much as I can plus install whatever possible to get the most out of the device. I'm open to any suggestions.
Thank you in advance.

Thank you for a quick response. I see this will help remove the apps but are there any other things I could do to get the most out of the phone. I'm planning on playing PUBG on it as well.

Unlock your bootloader.. read through the difference sections to see the offering good luck
If you want the most you need to unlock bootloader, install custom recovery, and then a custom rom (aosp or miui). The custom rom will not have all the bloat and perform much better along with giving you more features.

Thank you for the advice. Could you tell me where I can find all the resources needed and necessary steps to do all of that? Also without doing all of that, is there a guide to fully take advante of the cameras and how to do it?
I noticed when unlocking bootloader that there is a Mi Unlock status option. Should that also be unlocked?
i found the official twrp app in the play store, is that something that could be used?
what could be a good custom rom for mi 8 lite? whats mostly recommended?

Under this section you will find the recoveries available for our device https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-8-Lite/development no TWRP official available from the app.
About your questions of the rom no point to say this is better than that so the better for me might not be the better for you, you have to check the thread of the roms, download them and check them your self, no better way to test by your own that all that you need works for you so most of the roms actually work fine for some things but have bugs for other things.
If you unlocked bootloader the message that appears on Mi Logo "unlocked" is normal.

Why are you posting things that you won't own or make, if maker wanna post it he will post it by himself and if you post it then atleast write his name
This rom is in Chinese and I have not been able to use the phone because it asks for a pon code or something like that at the beginning. Has anyone managed to make it work?
