Based on the idea given above I got curious and didn't see any all in one help thread over here so decided to make one of these threads here :angel:
Before posting anything on XDA Please read this
Even if you do get your question(s) answered, please, do come back and follow this thread to educate yourself. You'll be surprised how much time and frustration it will save you in the future.
ASK ANY QUESTION HERE, drivers, rom, kernel, battery, stuck at boot logo etc...... You will either get an answer or will get pointed in the right direction.
I don't own this device so maybe I will not be able to answer all the questions asked here but someone monitoring may help
Please remember "Give respect to others, others will respect you back!" in simple words, No abuse towards newbies/noobs will be tolerated here!
My Idea is just to give one all in one help thread to all the device forums! Either I make it or some other member.... This is just to reduce the amount of threads made everyday in Q&A Section
All credits to Deadly for his thread and undercover for his awesome idea of a single help thread :good:

Hi people, im new here coming from xperia 2011 series. I have the e 975 modell.
Wanna root and flash custom kernel and rom. Im a bit confused cuz there seems some other modells like e973 and for sprint theres a own section. What means Sprint? So can i flash a rom from every modell or only the ones for e975. And what about roms for nexus4, did they work?
Thanks in advance.

Carrier specific roms are different... If you flash those, RIL might now work...
Also E975 and E973 and others models are same as compared to specifications but are not the same when it comes to roms and kernels :/
About Nexus 4, You have to port roms from Nexus 4 on CM10.1 Base then they will work
Thanks. Found a tut. how to root and unlock b. with freegee ( is it really just an app, so simple?).
But found nothing about how to install recovery, is it too just an app? Sorry, maybe noobish but on sony recovery were built in kernel and kernel must be flashed with pc.

No, Recovery is not an app.. Its kinda Recovery Mode just like when Windows isn't starting on PC..
You will get guides...

When you unlock with freegee TWRP recovery is automatically installed. I think you can also choose to install cwm though the app, not sure.
edit: cwm can of course be installed later if you wish, although twrp is perfectly fine. Remember that twrp and cwm nandroid backups are not compatible with each other!

But thanks to kiwinazgul now everything is clear.
Hey guys, just downloaded the latest RC of CM10.1
Question bout the kernel which is in the zip file, should i flash the boot.img without the zip?? or just flash the whole zip and it installs both, kernel and rom. On my old Sony device i had to extract the zip first to take out the boot.img and flashing it with a pc and then in recovery the rom itself. I know that now on my e975 i can flash kernel in recovery too.

In LG Device's You don't need to flash boot.img first...
Flash the whole zip! It installs both
Questions over Questions.. but thanks for help.
If i wanna go back to stock, i mean restore a nandroid backup, does it restore the stock kernel too?
And the last for today, does the CM10.1 Kernel supports overclocking?

Unfortunately, Stock CM Kernels don't have features like OC
and for your App Data you have to restore Data via Advance Restore...

Will the ThinkingBridge ROM install properly on a Canadian E973?
There's already an AOSP 4.2.1 ROM for E973 but ThinkingBridge is newer and much more updated.

Instead of flashing the same zip! Port the rom Or compile from source
I have an E973 on Telus. I read that the E970 AT&T Kernel will work on my phone, so can I use ROMs for the E970 or is the storage difference a deal breaker? Both models have 8 MP cameras so will the camera work?
What's the best custom rom+kernel combo for the e975. For best performance overall and gaming.
With stock i scored on Antutu Benchmark about 18000 ponts, with cm10.1 and kite kernel only 16000. I have a friend with a Nexus4 and he told me that he scored about 20000 points with paranoid rom and franco Kernel. I know that these Benchmarks are nothing important but i wanna show that my G has too that much of power
So which combo??

Keep on trying and you'll get the answers!
The question you asked is regarded as Best Rom and Best Kernel which is not appropriate
I hope you understand

Maybe like cyanogen do for CM11... sounds right no?
No, it doesn't because those are completely different sources. There is search button, yet it's so hard to use it, isn't it?
Yeah I searched and didn't find any _DEDICATED_ post about this information (and moreover a link to a `git` repo).

my daily
Ive been using this as my daily for months now. Only had a few random reboots and some of those are probably related to the fact im undervolting.
I have found the CAF version of the Glitch kernel (not the latest like an older version) to be extrememly stable in use with this rom.
Keep up the top work!

now that i think about it... a CAF wouldnt work would it... re reading the derscription of the kernel it uses some CAF sources (for msm specific stuff or used to anyway) but is built for AOSP (And its not as old as i thought i dont think, i forgot i built it from source on jenkins so its got a different namng convention to the ones in the actual glitch thread). If i can work out which kernel it is i will let you know as it is very stable and i have been using as my daily for months now with this rom.
Running up to 1.89GHz with 50ma (or more) undervolting for each step. only had a few issues initially while i got the undervolts right.
The full CAF kernels did not work at all (sorry i should have though about what i was saying haha!)

android 5 from android 4.4.2
I have a rooted, bootloader unlocked, with TWRP nexus 7 2013 (32gb wifi) running android 4.4.2 but have not installed a custom rom till date. Now if i want to flash a custom rom such as this one (android 5, while my nexus is on 4.4.2), all i have to do is download the rom from the link given in the instructions and flash it via TWRP?. From what i understand from the instructions, it doesnt matter what my tablets kernel number etc is, all i have to do is flash it via TWRP. Or is it that the new kernel is included with the flashable zip file, that i am to download.
Any input or advice is appreciated.
Thanks in advance

These kind of questions are frowned upon in xda
Please read the thread of the roms (yes I know it takes time bla bla bla but its the only way you will learn how to do things and what is happening with the rom) - it lists all the features and what is working and what needs fixing.
Most customs roms for moto g5 are based on linage os - so any bugs that has will also be in the rest
Is there any developer who can make custom kernel.
Because over clock custom kernel is not available for our device.
Developer's please make :crying:

Yes..
They are ignoring
Many phone have kernels.
Instead of making new Roms developers must make new kernel's.
This p2 BEAST need over clock and performance kernel.
Developers are doing great but they must make kernel

Yeah totally agreed, I have been wondering this myself for a while.
As, I have seen some great kernel for other devices like RN3, Moto g4, etc
But, why our beloved p2 doesn't have any kernel developments ??
Are the kernel sources for our device not released ? ? or some other reasons idk, but we all will appreciate some development in the kernel end of our device.
As, kernels can provide much of what we are searching in every other roms like battery, performance, kcal, etc.
