Hi!
I just bought Leeco x727 and I would like to know what is the first thing I have to do to install custom ROM's. First I have to update and then unlock the bootloader? After that, do I have to do an additional step?
The idea is to install TWRP to install updated ROMs running the least possible risk.
Thank you very much
Their threads already on this.

Unless there is a theme style then there isn't a way.
Also you should have posted this here to get an answer to your query.
Your topic heading makes it seem like it's a how-to xD you might wanna be a bit more careful with the headings...
Also, I'm 99.99% sure you cannot install CM without rooting. Well, you might be able to just flash recovery and flash CM on it, but I won't advise something I haven't done

rooting before flashing a custom rom is useless, flashing recovery and then flashing a custom rom is how it should be done.. but ppl have just made rooting one of the steps, and now new users think rooting is actually necessary to flash a custom rom..

I've almost given up on successfully rooting and installing custom ROM on my Galaxy Note3 (N900V) It seemed that there were roadblocks at every method that I thought would work with my Verizon Note 3. The above quote suggest (to me) that rooting is no longer necessary but that it can be done simply by flashing a recovery (CWM or TWRP??) and then flashing the custom ROM.
Instructions usually assume a Windows computer to flash via usb cable. I'm running Linux so where can a find a step by step guide that will let me install Cyanogenmod or some other custom ROM that will let me debloat, and perhaps improve function on my Note 3 which I plan to be keeping for the foreseeable future.

Suggest you ask in the forum for your model .

Doesn't the Verizon version of the Note 3 have a locked bootloader that must be unlocked before flashing TWRP or a non-TW based ROM? Heimdall can flash TWRP in Linux: http://glassechidna.com.au/heimdall/
Doesn't the Verizon version of the Note 3 have a locked bootloader
yes its locked .
So I've normally been good at figuring stuff out on my own when flashing custom roms, rooting, etc but it's been awhile since I've messed with it and it seems things keep getting tougher (or maybe it's just me). Anyway here is the story... I am currently running JasmineROM (Android 5.0 Lollipop) on my Verizon Note 3 (SM-N900V), but I was considering upgrading to a version 6 Marshmellow rom like Temasek. One problem is that for some reason, I never installed a custom recovery so I am not sure how to proceed. I guess my questions are:
1. Do I need to downgrade to Kit-Kat somehow to install TWRP, and if so, what is a good guide?
2. What is the best, fastest, bloatware-free Marshmellow custom rom out there for SM-N900V right now?
3. I looked at the installation instructions for TWRP and it says to only use a specific version depending on whether your bootloader is the upgraded kit-kat version or not. How do I know this? Would it be updated since I'm using a 5.0 rom?
Sorry for the noobish questions and thanks in advance for any help!
Easy answers:
1 you can not back rev to KitKat
2 you can not install any custom recovery until you unlock the bootloader
3 you can not install any version of Marshmallow until you have installed a custom recovery because there is no official Marshmallow for the Verizon Note 3
Look in this forum for how to unlock the bootloader.

a. Unlock bootloader: http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...l/official-note-3-verizon-bootloader-t3359370
b. Install TWRP ( I used 3.0.2-0 ) the easy way: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jmz.soft.twrpmanager
c. Install CM13 ( This is the only MM ROM I could get to work on the Verizon network) - http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...opment/rom-temaseks-unofficial-build-t3364382
Thanks for the help! I managed to figure it out myself after realizing I needed to unlock the bootloader. Thanks for taking the time to post!

you should wipe everything except internal storage before flashing a ROM.
And your TWRP and firmware version should be compatible with the ROM you are flasing
You're never going to get any help by being that vague. You can find everything you need on the forums
What do you actually do? Do you have an unlocked bootloader and a custom recovery?
I just recently purchased a Galaxy Tab A t350 and noticed that there are no official custom roms available for this device. There is one unofficial Evervolve and it does boot and works "somewhat" but without a solid custom rom the only options we have are the factory firmwares flashed via "Odin".
While there is nothing wrong with using "Odin" as it is a powerful and much needed tool, a TWRP flashable zip of the stock firmware would be awesome. Preferably rooted, but I can always re-root the rom after flashing it with SuperSu.
My question is, how to take the stock firmware.tar and make a TWRP flashable zip out if it. Are there any good sources to learn from for doing this?
Thank you in advance.

I have searched an the only thing I can find is on older builds for like KitKat and jellybean. Nothing on MM. Or even N for that matter. I would just like to know how to do it my self. A link h to a good source would be a lot of help. But thank you anyways.
Please delete this threads as I have found the answer to my own question and have built my own rom. Thank you.
