Do this at your own risk.
It's not my fault if you brick your phone.
Don't do this with kernels.
This won't work on G531X phones because they have a different chipset.
Don't go to the thread of the rom you did this to for bug reports.
Some roms you can just flash but others need to be slightly modified.
PRO-TIP: Install PBRP recovery. You can change phone codename there which skips this entire tutorial.
My phone model: gprimeltedx (G530F)
Example ROM: Superior OS by itexpert.120 for fortuna3g (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...sis-fortuna3g-fortunave3g-26-12-2019.4025365/)
How to "slightly modify" the rom:
1- First try flashing the ROM. If you get an error about your model then continue
2- Download a text editor for Android or use Notepad++ for PC (Notepad works too but its harder)
3- Extract the ROM zip to a folder
4- Go into the folder you extracted the rom to
5- Go to /META-INF/com/google/android
6- Open updater-script with your text editor
7- At the top or near the top there should a line that goes like this.
8- Delete it and save the file
9- Go back to the folder you extracted the rom to and select all of the files and folders, not the folder itself.
10- Compress the files to a zip and flash it with your recovery
