This is the guide I wrote. It may be hard and not so user friendly, but recommended.

The reason why first method is recommended is you can test before actually flash CWM. You can do flash it easier with no testing following this instructions

First of all congratulations for you effort to ease our life
It looks like I've stuck with problem not reported yet. Everything went OK but after reboot from CWM after last message that restore is OK I got error E: Invalid command argument. I can't find solution for this so I had to revert to the retail ROM.
Any suggesstion for reason is appreciated.

Here's noob friendly steps to fix this "E: Invalid command argument"

1.Make sure you have backup up of your stock rom on cwm
2.Restore CENTSOARER's rom
3.The phone will restart and say "E:invalid command argument"
4.Scroll to backup and restore
5.Select "advanced restore from /storage/sdcard1"
6.Select your stock rom's folder
7.Select "restore data"
8.Select "start restore"
9.When done boot phone and enjoy

sorry fod bad english

Are we able to get Android 5.0 on this device?

Hey guys,

I just picked one of these up.. Its been a while since I've done anything with the Android OS but I'd like to help out with some development. Is anything open sourced yet? Do we have a similar device that I can port from?

I'll do some research but I don't want to reshash work that someone else has already done.

Cheers.

You must wipe data / factory reset AFTER restore. You make Boot Loop i think. Happens to me on my old phone.

Sorry guys, I haven't worked for a while on CM because I needed to be available on phone, so I could not test the buildings.
I think I'll restart working soon, but first I need to setup another phone to use until I fix network and brightness on our CM...

Hoping that someone else will add to help...
