TCL idol x s950 - Alcatel Idol X Questions & Answers

Hi everyone,
I just got my tcl idol x s950 and its an amezing phone, very fast and bueatifull. I got a problem tho, I am from greece and the phone had the miui rom that doesnt include greek language (this version at least). The phone is not rooted so i gues i will have to root and flash it to install an other rom. My problem is that i never done something like this before, I found a one click root that works on the phone so rooting it will not be a problem, but flash and install an other rom is huge to me. First of all i dont know what rom i have to dl, i dont know which one will work on it and most important i dont know the process...
If there is someone out there that knows something please help.
Thank you very much properly

[Q] XDA pr0s, gods! pls help the Rookiee!

hello to everyone, i have hd2 phone with 6.5 windows mobile OS. I want to know if there is someone here, that is brave, good, and that knows to tell me something about win7, and that i can trust him... i dont want to risc, and trust other forums...
so... i want to install win7 on my hd2, is it really possible, and how exacly to do that.... thx for ur help, dont hurt my feelings
Installing WP7 on your HD2 is more than easy.

After installing it's best to test it for some minutes or hours and make your own picture of this OS. If you decide to use it further you have to activate it:

Please backup you SDcard before flashing WP7 as the tutorial says.
I you never flashed a phone before, i want you to say, that there is no risk to break your phone, if you do anything wrong while flashing. and everything is reversable, you only have to flash original windows mobile 6.5 rom and everything is the same like before.
I used android for 1 month and then decided to test WP7. Before i used it, i thought it is nothing against android, but after it started and i looked around i really fell in love with this operating system. It's simple and fast and that's why it's soooo cool! I would say it's worth to test it and if you like it, it is stable for everyday use.
Do it and you will know what i mean
If you have further problem just ask in this thread or pm me, i'm glad to help you!

thx good m8, u realy helped me ) ... i wanted to flash it before, but then i saw that someone posted on internet that u can destroy your phone by flashing it, so i must do it on my own risc, so i got a bit unsure... anyway, thanks again for ur help, and i will ask u, if i need something to know... if im allowed by u, ofc

Anybody still out there?

Hi folks.
I've just been given this phone by a friend who has just upgraded to a Galaxy S2. I'm running a HTC Sensation myself but the handset looks like it should still be a useful upgrade for my daughter if I could get a custom ROM on it.
Almost all the DL links from the DEV sub-section seem down though. I did get Jazzman's ROM eventually but can anyone still playing with this device tell me if this is a good, bad or indifferent ROM to try. I don't want to waste time installing a bad'un.
I see from reading other threads that all custom ROMs seemed to have inherited a camera bug which could be partially fixed by reinstalling the default camera app (but no settings are ever saved). Did anyone ever get beyond that or did folks simply get newer phones and move on?
Lastly, if anyone still has a few of the old ROMS DL'd on their computer (Artos' anyone??) and could upload them somewhere for me and others to get access again, then that would be great.
Hoping someone can help. It's definitely too good to be binning it without trying something.....

Hey Crommy, did you upgrade to the latest stock rom? That really soves most of the issues with the device and is quite decent by itself.

there is no latest stock rom for me, i was using a EN-AR Rom B, the latest one is C with no Arabic support , so i downloaded brain master Manila , its Great !, it hangs 80 % less than the old one, Plus its faster,only issue found is the twitter tab when i login it says you are forbidden to use these account, at desktop and mobile browser the account logins normally.
do you have any idea how to install Arabic lang support for reading massages and contacts names?

[Q] Best method to root and upgrade from 2.2.2 for a friend?

Hello guys,
sorry for probably not having searched long enough, but there is just a mass of threads to dig through...
A friend of mine has the Motorola Atrix and I want to help him upgrade it to the latest rom version, plus root the device... so I was wondering what method to use and which rom etc?
Myself I own a Samsung Galaxy i9000, so I know how many different roms exist for each device lol.. but no clue about the atrix (yet).
My friend is visually impaired and in order to change the display dpi we need to have the phone rooted.
Hope you can point me in the right direction so I don't have to spend too much time researching about this atrix.

For custom rom, try GingerMod 2.3.6 #7, best ROM i ever used, runs so smooth and better battery life...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1400023
Thanks man!
That gingermod rom looks nice, unfortunatly it doesn't seem to support german. (forgot to say that my friend doesnt understand english so well and thought roms would usually always support german lol)
So are there any good with german language anyone can recommend? Preferably with Motoblur, or does motoblur get f*cked up by dpi changes?

upgrade to gingerbread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1369296
after upgrade to gingerbread...rooting etc
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1420728
I would recommend that after rooting and installing a custom recovery (ClockworkMod) you should make a full nandroid(complete OS + data) backup and keep it safe on your pc or sd card before you do anything else.
once you have are rooted have a custom recovery.. and a nandroid backup you are ready!..
remember.. when flashing ROMS.. check the baseband..which means.. if you are on gingerbread ROM.. official or otherwise.. you can flash any gingerbread ROM.. if you want to flash a ROM based on ICS.. you should get on ICS baseband.. for that you need to upgrade to official ICS.. then you can flash whatever ICS ROM you want..
as for flashing instructions... the ROM builder will have included that.. so read it.
Hope i helped!
Thank u
I'll do exactly what u said wish me luck to not broke my device
thank u,
