I haven't done this in a while so could use some help. I'm currently rooted on Jb 4.1.2 sungsonic HD by adi. My model # says it's on gt-p3100 but I'm sure it really is gt-p3113. Question is can I just flash a new 4.4.2 or 4.4.4 rom or do I have to do something with Odin before I could start flashing Kitsap rooms? Thanks for any help

You need to first and foremost determine the exact model# of your tab. After that you will need to update your recovery to the absolute latest whether its CWM, TWRP or Philz and them you can flash one of the new KK 4.4.x ROMs of your choice. The big thing for you is the correct model# Get that wrong and its all down hill from there. Get your new recovery from here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2548257 After that grab any ROM They are all great IMHO. Good Luck
Thanks. I got it to work yesterday with help from Android andi
Hey all,
I'm finally updating to 5.0 but I'm rather confused since I couldn't find answers to my questions.
My phone is rooted and I'm running a 4.4.2 rom. I'm looking to flash a 5.0 custom rom.
1. I'm coming from a 4.4 rom called purity. Is there any special procedure I have to do before flashing to a 5.0 custom rom? I know some phones need to flash additional files like a radio but I'm not sure if it's the case with the Nexus 5.
2. Do I have to flash a new bootloader? Or will flashing a custom 5.0 rom update the bootloader for me ?
Thanks and much appreciated.
Bump. Any help is appreciated.

1. No, you can use any radio as long as it's one for the Nexus 5.
2. No, but its recommended to update the bootloader anyways.
Hi Guys.
I have couple of questions. aBOUT TO an LG g3. do i have to root on kitkat or on lollipop? is there a difference.? Can I use CWM or only twrp is working as recovery? I understand that if install twrp then I can not upgrade to lollipop over the air.
What else should I know before i start playing with it? I used to use slimrom on my previous phone. Is there any rom similar to that?
Thanks
Hey guys. I am curious as how we can currently root the AT&T LG G3 on the D85020L software and how to install TWRP as well. I had previously done that on KitKat but I had decided to go back to stock because of CM12 bugs. However, I am looking to do it again, and I want to know how to properly do it. Thanks. Btw, does AutoRec still work on this build?

Good day
Previously I had a Galaxy S3 and I was using CyanogenMod – Loved it!
I just always preferred a phone that was clean and lean without all the bloatware.
Now I’m with the S5 and there is possibly an option available for a custom ROM for my phone?
Currently –
SAMSUNG GALAXY S5 SM-G900A AT&T
Lollipop 5.0 G900AUCU3BOC4
So far as I can tell this phone could not be rooted.
Until a few days ago I got a notice in an email that it was now available.
I was on their mailing list if something should become available.
oneclickroot
I know you can’t go backward LP 5.0 – KK 4.4.
One can only go forward, LP 5.0 - LP 5.1 or LP 5.0 – Marshmallow.
However most of what I have seen out there for my phone has been LP 5.0.
At present I’m looking at these unless someone can suggest something else.
TMS5 3.0 ROM LP5.0
Twi5ted lollipop V7 LP 5.0
Alliance V8 ROM LP5.0
My question is, can I go from LP 5.0 (Stock) to LP 5.0 (Custom)?

If you've got the locked bootloader then you're out of luck rooting and flashing TWRP/Cyanogenmod.

Actually the phone is rooted now. Right after I posted this I used Kingroot king481.apk and Titanium Backup is installed and Root Check confirmed its now rooted. Although I have not tried the Bootloader...... With my luck that is another issue..... I wonder if I should try the first step with the Bootloader and see if SAFESTRAP or TWRP can install?

Safestrap is no longer supported and with locked bootloader you're not gonna get TWRP to work.

Really appreciate an an answer, even if its still, "sorry, still out of luck",

Thanks.

Your device is an AT&T variant, your device has a locked bootloader, you can't install custom recovery with a locked bootloader. The bootloader on your device can not be unlocked, you will never be able to install custom recovery on your device. If you want custom recovery you will have to get another device because you will never be able to use custom recovery on the device that you already have.
