Totally lost and looking for help - Samsung Galaxy Light Questions & Answers

Hi,
First off I will a say I'm a newbie at this and very very confused. Long story short I've got a pile of old Samsung Android devices which I'm hoping to update to make them useable again.
I've done a few successfully so understand the Odin and TWRP bits but where I'm struggling is the code names for the device and finding a suitable ROM for that device for example the Tab S2 how can I tell if a device would be gts210wifi or gts210vewifi? Is there a way to get the device to tell you its name?
I spent most of yesterday afternoon fruitlessly searching for a ROM for a Tab 3 7" wifi.
If anybody knows of some sort of document that explains things then I'd be grateful.
Thanks

[Q] Lenovo A766 - How to get stock android

Hi Everyone,
I guess you can say that I am fairly new to Android, but not. Ive had a Samsung S3 for just about two years, but after taking a few drops... that phone is dust.
My GF bought me a Lenovo a766 online and it is a great device. Only issue I am having is -- the phone itself is in Chinese, but the language settings are in English, so I can navigate around the device.
What I am looking to do is:
I want to load on Stock Android... 4.4 (doesnt have to be 4.4, but anything 4+)- right now, this device is on 4.2. And this version doesnt have the Google PlayStore...
Could anyone lead me in the right direction...
I do have the Smart Phone Flash Tool... but I am not entirely sure where to get the actual android Rom...
Honestly I would appreciate any help and advice that anyone could give.
Thanks in advance!

1. You are in the wrong forum, you have a MTCD unit. This forum is for MTCB/MTCC units. You are in the correct area,
The link for a ROM is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/and...lopment/rom-malaysk-roms-mtcd-device-t3385309
You need not to root your device, the ROM will do it for you.
Make sure you understand you can make your unit bricked. MTCD seems to be most unreliable in some cases.
You CAN NOT make it a MTCC or MTCB.. Don't use those ROMs.
You can go back to FACTORY if you have the ROM image.
Malaysk just released if I recall a new rom a few days ago. 1024*600 only I think. Since I do not own a MTCD, I have no use looking into that area much.
Good luck..
Thanks, I think I understand where I made mistake

Samsung Galaxy Stratosphere Stock Firmware (SCH-I405V)

Hello everybody,
I somehow got my old phone (Samsung Galaxy Stratosphere) so borked that it takes about 10 minutes to boot and most, (if not all), stock apps are missing. Because of this, I wanted to restore it to its stock firmware (or ROM, as some would say), but it appears to be that it is found nowhere online, and there is no specific XDA forum for my device.
Well, to get straight to the point, I am wondering whether or not somebody can point me to where I can download firmware for my device or if you can supply me with it.
I am sort of unskilled about reflashing stock firmwares, as I have only done it with my GNex and Fire HD 6 (which is quite easy to do) so I would also like some assistance as to how I can restore my device, if possible.
Cheers! :highfive:

Is it possible a customer ROM to Galaxy Tab 10.1v (GT-P7100)?

Hello, after many years being a mere reader, today I finally decided to register to ask for help.
The question is simple, the procedure may not: I would like a suitable ROM for the GT-P7100. I have been looking a lot and, besides that are scarce not to say null, the links that are indicated are fallen.
Deluded me, I went straight to the website of Cyanogen but I do not understand anything; There seems to be no ROM available for our Tablet.
Then, I understand there are two ways to install a ROM: through ODIN or with the FASTBOOT tool.
I would appreciate it if you could help me, please to return to life to my old tab 10.1 V, since 4.0.4 is not going anywhere.
One thing that I just happened (I do not know if possible) and if I install Windows?
Thank you very much for your time, a greeting
