For you who don&#8217;t know this ColorOS rom, this rom is a stock rom from Oppo, it has a beautiful interface, very well organized apps, widgets and settings panel, and I think you should give it a try. The rom is pretty big in size, maybe because of the nice ui but the performance is quite fast even on this dual core mtk6572 cpu.<br \/>\nAnother thing, i already explain this on my xperia rom article, but i have to explain also here, I&#8217;ve got a borrowed GDF device with a broken back camera, so i cannot test it whether is working or not. However, i\u2019m using the library camera module from the stock rom for safe and the output debug logcat throws no errors at all, so i can assume the back camera will work good. Ok, let&#8217;s get started :<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jfdesignnet.com\/?attachment_id=4100\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-4100\" alt=\"gdf-coloros\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jfdesignnet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/gdf-coloros-180x300.png\" width=\"180\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a>Features :<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Android 4.2.1 with 3.4.5 kernel<\/li>\n<li>Rooted, busybox, partly deodexed, zipaligned<\/li>\n<li>init.d support<\/li>\n<li>gps, bt, hsdpa tweak<\/li>\n<li>multi languages<\/li>\n<li>Superuser by Clockworkmod (thanks to <a href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/103583939320326217147\">Koush<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>ColorOS 1.0.0i rom base (thanks to <a title=\"Oppo development Team\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oppoforums.com\/forums\/download-coloros.40\/\" target=\"_blank\">Oppo Team<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>\u2026 something I forgot to list<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Here we go the custom rom :<\/p>\n<p><strong>Custom ROM :<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Download :<em>\u00a0<\/em><a title=\"picophone4_gdf_coloros_signed_031714_103414.zip\" href=\"http:\/\/d-h.st\/D2P\" target=\"_blank\">picophone4_gdf_coloros_signed_031714_103414.zip<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>MD5<\/em> : 005c8fcb271e9ae608d95786f68f57c3<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>ADDONS :<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Like I already said earlier, this rom is big, and there is not enough room to include the Google addons apps like Google+, Youtube, etc on the system partition.

Flash this addons after you flash the custom rom, and don&#8217;t worry about the footprints, all the google addons apps will occupy the data partition so you can easily uninstall it later in case you never need it.<\/p>\n<p>Addons : <a title=\"signed_gdf-coloros-addons-170314.zip\" href=\"http:\/\/www.mediafire.com\/download\/bdxbvfx5dvzdbad\/signed_gdf-coloros-addons-170314.zip\" target=\"_blank\">signed_gdf-coloros-addons-170314.zip<\/a><\/p>\n<p>MD5 : 7b5074bb56ba9d324b88e21f2cc0ce3a<\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Known issues :<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Video Recording issue<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Video recording is not working.
