An advice, make Full Backup of current ROM/Firmware before doing anything with device you are willing/thinking to try.
I'm using Huawei Ascend y511. so can't do that, but i believe "CN" stands for Chinese and "EN" sure for English. regarding recovery language, for me i get two different modes, recovery and factory setting i believe. Stock recovery for my mobile is in English and the other is Chinese. But, in case you get chinese recovery, i think it can be replaced with "Custom Recovery (English)".
Once Stock/Custom ROM is installed/flashed, you sure can change language option to English or Chinese as mentioned about ROM languages (Not for recovery).
Point is that; once ROM is installed/flashed & you are satisfied with it and you also got backup of current Kitkat ROM and you find recovery is in CN. You can restore ROM to Kitkat or in case you don't care about warranty and can flash/install Custom recovery(English language) without going into CN recovery. then i think it shouldn't be a problem.

this rom work fine with my device

[Q] Flashing S6000-F with Yoga 10" 4.4 Rom

Hello all,
The Yoga 10 and S6000-F seem to share the exact same specs (aside from the batteries), so the question is whether one could safely flash the 4.4 rom onto the S6000 to partake in the Kitkat goodness?
I don't believe this question has been asked before, but if it was, my apologies in advance. Thank you.

I also considering about installing Yoga Tablet 10 Firmware to S6000-H but flashing this version would be corrupt maybe device

I've a spare s6000 I'm willing to try it on if someone could point me to KK download and a guide to install it. I'm used to CWM/TWRP so not a complete n00b but have only rooted my s6000.
Anyone? Willing to accept CWM backup of your tablet if you've just wiped it before doing a backup.
Many thanks
Adrian

Finally managed to download the Yoga firmware from the Russian site. Tried to install just the boot.img and recovery.img - borked the tablet. Fortunately I know how to use fastboot and managed to recovery it with a backup I made earlier.
So, it might be possible mucking about with scatter files etc but just a plain old install won't work. You have been warned.
Many thanks
Adrian

Thank you very much for your try. Too bad just the install of Yoga firmware didn't work, maybe that would have been a to easy solution for us S6000 user. :laugh:
So there's no much hope left for an upgrade or custom firmware left I think.

Android L should be out soon so I've started looking at that. Ideally MTK will release the proper drivers etc. - here's hoping...
Many thanks
Adrian

Custom rom fpr Huawei Ascend G740

G'Day everyone!
I would like to upgrade my ol' Huawei Ascend G740 to a newer firmware, but since Huawei doesnt release updates by themselfes, i thought about doing that by using custom recovery.
But i dont really want to use an official rom, i have Jelly Bean 4.1.2 and im not really happy with it. i prefer to have lightweight systems (like slim bean) without tons of Bloatware in it, so i started googeling. But i cant seem to find ANY roms for my smart phone, is the G740 that uncommon that nobody bothered to support that device? or is it possible to get roms for similar smartphones and install it on my (rooted) G740-L00? i dont know.
And if theres really no good custom rom for my G740 out there, i would like to update my phone to Andoird 4.4 anyways, even if that means to use official stock roms like KitKat or whatever, in that case, which one would you recommend?
I hope you guys can help me out!
Greeting,
- Manu

Hey, I am new to the website and I checked the G7 rom you linked but I noticed that there's also a CM12 rom: htcmania com/showthread.php?t=1069214
(fill the Space between htcmania and com with a dot). However, on the pictures it says the version is Android 5.1.1 and as far as I know this version has not come out. Can you explain?

It's a costum rom, but it haves a lot of bugs. I'm using right now on my Ascend G7-L01 and it works fine.
As far as I have heard then there will come an official lollipop rom out in this month, I'm so excited!!!

Mi A1 Stock Rom Conffuseion

Hello guys! I tryed to search all over forum to get answer but no success.
I bought Xiaomi Mi A1 32/4GB 3 months ago. It comed in Nougat version of android. Upgraded it to Oreo and used it until April security update. After that, i decided to flash Resurection Remix. I lked rom but there are some bugs and i decided to flash stock rom. I downloaded rom from en.miui.com and flashed it using Mi Flash Tool. After device booted up, i noticed some preinstalled apps that i didnt have when i bought device. I got apps called: Mi Comunity and Mi store. Also i noticed that i dont have Xiaomis Remote controll as system app so i needed to download it from play store manually. Can someone explain this? Did i downloaded rom for other region? (wich i dont belive its problem because this is Android One phone so everyone have Global Rom, i think)
Any answer is welcome.
Sorry if i posted in wrong section this thread, i am noob at XDA.

Just bought last month, it have mi community come with stock, i'm not sure about mi store and mi remote because i install RR6.0 right after finish download.
Did you choose flash all and relock or keep user data?

Its all good, used it before. Just the normal ROM with added programs.

Well i chosed clean all and lock in mi flash tool.
Well i have to add my phone is heating up when i use phone longer, i didnt have that problem when it came out of box.
I downloaded firmware from xda with january security patch(upgraded it later to April) and flashed it. Il try to flash some other stock rom from other links, not en.miui.com one.
So everyone have same rom or this phone have roms but they are different from region to region?
Thanks for answers!
