Gionee Elife E8

I have Gionee Elife8. This is the base variant for Pure XL and Xtreme2. It did not have any gapps and device was not all in English. So it needed some customization.

I was able to flash TWRP image - thanks to @bemolx http://ift.tt/28Sfwwk

I made a backup using TWRP. i was able to install and get gapps to work (shouldv'e stopped here). but ROM was still Gione's android fork Amigo and had Chinese components so . .

Then i tried flashing from TWRP this image: Blue Pure XL stock ROM (http://ift.tt/28OQE4w). it said done but the phone did not reboot.
I also tried x2xtreme ROM (http://ift.tt/28OQAlk) that did not reboot either.

Now that i am trying to restore my backup i keep getting extractarfork() error 255 :( system partition seems to be jacked up. i tried formatting it and restoring again

Can anyone provide any insight in to why the Blu Pure XL or x2xtreme ROM's won't boot? perhaps the boot images are different or the system is partitioned differently?? and more importantly if it is possible to restore my backup?
