[Q] [Request] Custom rom for Changjiang S1

I'm using this phone for a while, but since it is made in China and lack supports
It is still in 2.3.x branch, which contains some known security issues
So, I'd like to know how to build a custom rom for it, my friend told me Slim is one of the most stable custom ROM on the run, and fits my minimaist style, can you give me some advice?
P.S. I've been looking into many Chinese sites, but still I can't get the full list of device tree
EDIT: seems it is a mtk6516 CPU with dual SIM

it has some different model names:
Meizu G11
Chianjing A007 or V7

found some maybe useful specs.

Can someone modify resurrection remix for SM-A700FD so I can Install it on my A700H?

Please... I recently updated to marshmallow and it's buggy and a bit slow and I'm completely infuriated about the fact that I couldn't find ROMs for my model (I know it's not popular but I thought someone might already have done it). I'm learning how to program but I'm still not advanced enough to be able to modify a ROM. It should be relatively easy though bc SM-A700FD & SM-A700H share the same processer! They only differ that the first supports LTE while the second 3G (they both have two sim slots). Thanks for anyone who will help me! I own the 2015 A7 btw. If you can help me find a ROM for my device I'll be grateful! Doesn't have to be resurrection I just want a stable stock build with useful features.

[Discussion] SM T819 - Lineage OS - A possible starting point!

I have been waiting quite some time for a custom rom for SM T819 but I haven't see much progress in this. I looked for a device with similar specs for our device and came across this device which already has a Lineage OS build available. Its practically the same device but with a different screen size.
LeEco Le 2 Specs: http://www.gsmarena.com/leeco_le_2-8053.php
LeEco Le 2 Lineage OS Github Repo: https://github.com/LineageOS/android_device_leeco_s2
It will be a good starting point as I think for getting a custom rom for this device with a great potential. I have read that having spec devices is a great start to porting a ROM from one device to another without specifically building it from the source. However it includes a few build prop tweaks and changing few lines on kernel which I have no technical expertise.
Looking forward for your thoughts.

It's true, personally I don't have this tab but I had experience with a Tab I used which was similar in specs with S4 Mini ..
You'll get bugs though and you can base device tree from the Leeco Phone to build ROMs

Anything new here?
Seems like @tuxing built a modified T813 LOS build for himself, but of course no LTE in there. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73992901&postcount=552

i really hate the lack of support for LTE Tablets :/

Hi guys, I don't know if i am on topic but 'cause of this lack of ROMs for the T819, can I install the one for the T813? I know there is no LTE, but if I wanna try the ROM can I install it or it is incompatible with the T819?

Not that easy, but I had a nice chat session with @LuK1337 and he explained me how to get things built and boot on T819: https://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-s2/general/guide-build-lineageos-15-1-t819-t3721477
It's not that difficult as I thought. @LuK1337 told me it's simple and even I managed to get it working.

Hydrogen os nougat for oneplus 2

Hi guys I found this rom on the internet, I downloaded it but after installing it, at the time of the first boot sends me the phone in bootlop, why? Has anyone tried it or do you know why the Roma does not start?
You can find the link related to the rom on "forum.oneplus.net" thanks.
Ps. I can not publish the link

Well, if you read the last message here, you'll see that it's most likely not official. I wouldn't use that rom if I was you, best is either to stay at stock oxygen or just go with an android oreo rom (like AOSIP or any other found on this forum)

Seeking English ROM with gApps for Huawei DRA-AL00 (Y5 2018/Enjoy 8e Youth)

I have a Huawei DRA-AL00 (either called the Y5 2018 or Enjoy 8e Youth depending on which source you believe) currently running Android 8.1 (device details from Droid Info attached).
I am seeking an English language ROM with gApps (or the option to add it). I have already searched the forums and found this thread, however, the ROMs listed seem to just be copies of the stock ROM (or, at least, I can't find any details about them except that they're Android 8.1) I'm worried they'll have the same issues as the factory reset OS that I've already tried. I also searched google generally and found a lot of ROMs for other Huawei phones but none that looked promising for this one... Neither LineageOS nor ArrowOS seem to have an option for this phone. I also don't see a TWRP version that's been specifically tested for this phone, but I'm thinking of trying the one that's recommended for the Y5 2017 or the Enjoy 8 Plus. Of course, that's only relevant if I can find a custom ROM worth using. I'm willing to risk bricking this phone by using a TWRP and ROM that are intended for a different but similar phone, but I'd rather do so with input from someone who's more knowledgeable about phone OSs than me . I'll post the results of any ROMs I try here so others with this phone can have clearer info on what works with it.
Thanks for your help!!

Additional info below, not necessary to answer the original question .
For context, I'm a complete newb to flashing custom ROMs on phones. That said, I follow directions just fine and have spent most of today watching and reading tutorials for other Huawei phones (can't find one for this phone specifically...). I've also already tried several different fixes to get this phone functional without replacing the OS, but each new fix keeps raising a new issue or only partially resolving the original one. Hence reverting to the solution that's always served me well on laptops and desktops, replacing the OS.
I have already:
- Factory reset the phone.
- Set the system language to English (this succeeded in getting most of the day-to-day interface to show up in English, but about half of the pop-up messages and the contents of the in-built app store/browser/etc are all still in Chinese...).
- Replaced the keyboard app as it was also still an odd mix of English and Chinese which made typing pretty difficult...
- Tried four different methods to install gPlay on a Huawei phone all of which appeared to be working during install but result in a gPlay app that won't open.
- Tried installing the apps that I need without going through the Play store, however, anything affiliated with google (eg gmail, gmaps) refuses to work. I updated Google Play Services and Google Services Framework APKs to the most recent versions I could find that are Android 8.1 compatible but that didn't fix the issue.
- Disabled as much of the bloatware as I can.
If I can't find a decent ROM for this phone, I'll keep trying to work around its issues using third party apps. However, I'm starting to lose hope in reaching a truly functional solution with the current OS. It'd be sad to give up on this project since it's a quite nice little phone for the very basic functions I need - decent speed and truly epic battery life (nearly a week if I'm not using it much!). At the end of the day though, it only cost me $88 in the first place, so I'd rather risk bricking it by flashing an incompatible ROM than leave it to gather dust in the back of a drawer somewhere .

Hey I have a Huawei DRA-AL00 with English ROM . It comes with Gapps and stuffs but my problem is getting Twrp for it. Can I ask how you got yours?
