I have not tried flashing it while still on Jelly Bean..
But you can try, 1st of all backup your current ROM via CWM just incase it doesn't work so you can easily revert, and then "wipe data preflash" and then install zip..

Let us know if it worked..

Lol..
You are doomed...

No mind me o..

Did you choose the correct scatter file in the ROM you extracted..?
Because I remember there are two folders in the zipped file, one contains the real ROM and the other contains corrupted copy of the ROM files..

So in case you mistakenly flashed from the corrupted ROM folder, go back and reflash, and this time go through the folders carefully, choose the one that its files are in "mb's" & not "b's" i.e boot.img should be about "10mb" & not "0b" or something like that...

Yes flashing new rom you will lose root, but not to worry i provided an easy root file u can flash as well when you are done flashing the rom..

Your imei will change, so you need to back that up with mobileuncle tools..
Open mobile uncle, goto "IMEI BACKUP RESTORE (MTK)" and select "Backup IMEI to SDCARD(MTK)" it should backup, you can now restore it anytime after flashing a new rom..

Flashing a new rom wont delete you obb files, rather you lose the apk's that was installed..
So if you are familiar with "ESFile Explorer" get it from playstore you can backup your installed apps..
Here's how..
Open ESFile Explorer, tap the icon on the top left, a window should drop down, select "Library" and then choose "APP" you will see all installed apps now long press apps you wish to keep and select "Backup" on the bottom left of the screen..
However if this procedure is too long you are free to google other ways to backup installed apps..

Lastly the Ram management is good if not better.. You get about 670+ free ram on boot..
So it all depends on what you have installed and running..

Try it out and give us your review..

Remember to make a CWM backup before flashing *very important*
