If you are able to install a ROM depends on two things: 1. The ROM have to be signed using the same cryptographic key as your installed ROM and second it's version have to be higher than the one you have installed because Android does not allow a downgrade. If one or both requirements are fulfilled is unknown to you as I neither know your device nor the ROMs you have mentioned. Note that even if you are able to install a ROM doesn't have to mean that it will work in the end. If two ROMs just differ in the language it should work as long as the hardware is not region specific.– RobertOct 22, 2021 at 19:43

well, i did it, i installed a rom that was not made for my phone's build number and it worked! (the phone is a bit slower, [probably due to installing a rom just now) it functioned alright, language is now changable for the interface as well thanks the guy who helped me even though your english is a bit bad– Agent 5021Oct 23, 2021 at 1:23

i did it becuase robert said that it'll be fine as long im not trying to meddle with too sensitive stuff such as hardware and whatnot. so it works as longas the change ain't too drastic
