Root Roms For The Fierce 2

[Deleted User]

UPDATE JULY 18, 2017
[DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE]
2+ years ago I started this thread to get a custom ROM for the Alcatel OneTouch fierce 2. Eventually I gave up on it. This phone was not and is not worth it. Today I looked back at this thread and saw that the only guy who was dedicated to this phone, could not even successfully unbrick it. Big shout out and thanks to bigcountry for a his time and effort.


***Devs Welcome!***
Welcome to the Alcatel Onetouch Fierce 2 ROM thread, here we discuss about Getting custom recovery, setting up Xposed, and building new ROMS and flashing them.

Seems cool. I'm sorta a noob at this so any place u guys reccomend I learn a few things??

 

[SyncroIRON]

But I know what Roms are and all. AOKP, Cyanogenmod, etc...

 

[SyncroIRON]

I have used xposed on my old one touch evolve before it got bricked, because i tried using RaSHr to flash twrp on it. But other than that I just dont know how to use the Linux command line, or the shell in itself. I dont know c++ ,c, etc...

Is there a way to find out which ones work and which ones don't?

 

[jdzero89]

[callal241]

Is anyone working on custom recovery?

 

[dmolina007]

Best way to get a custom rom is usually to port it from another phone of the same identical specs and hardware.

 

[floridaboy89]

No one is workin on a cwm or twrp for this device?

I wish but unfortunately no one is devoted to this phone

Same thing was said about gettin root for this device

 

[Alcatelrootxgdit]

Same thing was said about gettin root for this device

Yeah but I mean now nobody wants to risk getting bricked

 

[dmolina007]

I'm tired of waiting for a custom rom. It's time for risk taking. First we need to find a custom rom for another android device with similar hardware. Come on guys please do some research and post what you find. So with that said the fierce 2 has...
CPU: (4x Cores) Arm cortex A7 running at 1.19ghz
GPU: Qualcomm Adreno 305
Board: msm8212

 

[dmolina007]

These are all of the phones that have the same adreno GPU.

[dmolina007]

This phone has the same board

[dmolina007]

And again, the point of this is to post other devices with identical hardware. From there we search to find which one of these already have custom roms. I know most of you are like what about the custom recovery. Let us not forget that if an identical device already has a custom rom then it will already have a recovery in place. Please post what you find. Thanks.

You can't just skip to finding a phone that has the same specs with a custom ROM then port it, we have to start with the custom recovery.

 

[dmolina007]

Right at least we can modify they custom recovery that the identical phones already have.
